it is about waiting for everyone in wisconsin. this is not about winning for republicans in maryland. it is about waiting for everyone in maryland and massachusetts. it is about winning for everybody to make our democracy work again because when we come together as a country, when we come together as people, the promise of america is met. today, the promise of america is not being met. we are not achieving our greatest selves. if you want to make america great again, end gerrymandering. let me say one more thing. when we say we are fighting for democracy, these are not just empty words. democracy happens when people participate. one thing that we heard that no one disputed inside is that gerrymandering and taking people's vote away suppresses democracy. it suppresses participation in the very idea of america. so whether you believe you should stand with the hand on your heart or believe you should take a knee, or you believe you should vote blue or vote red -- whether you come from the south, the north, the east, the west, the mid

in wisconsin, the power to redistrict hadn't belonged to one party for 100 years. but in 2010, republicans won control of the state assembly, the state senate, and the governor's office, and like parties have done throughout american history, they used that power to maximize their political advantage. listening at the library meeting was retired school principal helen harris. she lives on the northwest side of the city with her husband, curt. the 2011 redistricting plan placed their heavily democratic milwaukee neighborhood into a republican-leaning district that stretches far to the northwest past the suburbs into farm country. >> we live in the city. and now we, our little neighborhood, i think it's like six or 7,000 people were taken and attached to a very strongly republican district. >> reporter: the new district line was just two blocks from her house. so when the district line was redrawn, anything this side of it was moved into the new district? >> that's correct. >> mmm-hmm. >> reporter: in the 2012 election for her district, the republican candidate ran u

wisconsin is a fantastic place to visit in the fall. looking back, someone probably should have told hillary clinton that fact. [laughter] just saying. speaking of which, actually, i got a copy of her new book. this thing sums up politics perfectly. she took eight months writing ten hours a day, to explain what happened in 512 pages. the president explained it in a tweet #iwon. fact number two, you know, we have primaries in the republican party these days. my primary opponent in 2016 was endorsed by sarah palin. i'm really not that mad about it because sarah and i have a lot in common, we both lost for vice-president, we both debated joe biden, and given the current investigations, i, too, can see russia from the house. [applaus [applause] >> by the way, i do really appreciate these laughs, i usually don't get laughs like this except when i'm actually debating joe biden. very much appreciate that. the fact number three, the experts and pollsters say your popularity has gone down because of my relationship with donald trump. some people

he went to milwaukee, wisconsin, much of my book takes place in wisconsin. to make part of that connection, he signed up as a volunteer for the draft, went to vietnam at age 19 and was killed in the battle. from the south side of milwaukee. his nickname in vietnam, they couldn't give him the nickname -- everyone's name was ski. >> host: just before he left for vietnam, his sister diane, he gave her advice how to deal with boyfriends and what to do about their father and new stepmother and they remembered the smell of their mother's homemade soup. when danny was born his father was planning a pine tree by the side of the house. when the young soldier took a trip to the old neighborhood he noticed the new owner had cut the pine tree down. wife that level of detail? >> guest: that is the way i write. i'm always looking for, you can call it poetic connections but those are the points in life you remember. i had several long conversations with danny's sister, who was over the course of a year became more and more willing to remember things about the family and da

someone in wisconsin can have or someone outside of wisconsin can - justice ginsburg: may i - justice kennedy: i think we're anxious to get to the merits, but one more thing on the sign. suppose the sign in the southern part of the state had talked about an issue which was very important to the people in milwaukee. mr. tseytlin: i think that one could frame a hypothetical where, if it was some sort of a home rule thing, where milwaukee's right to have certain height buildings was affected, you could have a no longer generalized interest, but we don't have anything like that here. hi justice breyer: all right. so can i do this? because i think the hard issue in this case is are there standards manageable by a court, not by some group of social science political ex -- you know, computer experts. i understand that, and i am quite sympathetic to that. so let me spend exactly 30 seconds, if i can, giving you, as you've read all these briefs, i have too, this is -- this is where i am at the moment -- not that i'm for this, react to this as you wish, and if you wish to say nothing, say nothi

partisan and extreme than residents in wisconsin. for example, in wisconsin there is a historic pride in clean government, and several years ago wisconsinites put in place an independent government accountability board. this board was set to oversee and enforce compliance with ethics, campaign finance and election laws. but the gerrymandered legislature dismantled the independent government accountability board. why did they do that? they did it because they wanted a weaker partisan agency in control, because they didn't want anybody to be investigating their actions. there was an investigation that the government accountability board put in place that was scott walker and special interest money that were flowing in to recall elections. and they don't want accountability, and they don't want with enforcement of clean government rules. we also saw funding for k-12 and public universities being very important to wisconsin's citizens, huge proportion of democrats, republicans and independents support that. and what did the highly partis

whitford, a case out of wisconsin involving redistricting. last year a lower court ruled that the state's 2011 map drafted by a republican-controlled legislature amounted to unconstitutional partisan gerrymandering. the state of wisconsin is appealing the lower court's decision. this is an hour. we'll hear argument first this morning in case 16-1161, gill versus whitford. mr. tseytlin? mr. tseytlin: mr. chief justice, and may it please the court: this court has never uncovered judicially manageable standards for determining when politicians have acted too politically in drawing district lines. plaintiff's social science metrics composed of statewide vote to seat ratios and hypothetical projections do not solve any of these problems. and hypothetical projections do not solve any of these problems. they were merely shifting districting the final courts who decided the fate of maps based upon panels of experts. on a threshold matter, this court should hold the courts jurisdiction to entertain statewide political gerrymandering challenges, leavin

begins. >> reporter: the 2012 elections brought good news to wisconsin democrats. president obama carried the state for a second time, and the party won 174,000 more votes for the state assembly than republicans. but that did not mean democrats would control the state assembly. in fact, republicans wound up with 60 of the 99 seats. 61% of the seats after winning only 49% of the votes. was that because so many democrats were clustered in urban districts in madison and milwaukee? bill whitford didn't think so. the retired law professor and lifelong democrat believed the way the district lines were drawn had effectively rigged the election. >> the value that's clearly at stake is that majorities should rule. democrats got a majority in the statewide assembly vote and they got less than 40% of the seats in the assembly. i mean that made it very clear that we had no chance. >> reporter: whitford is the lead plaintiff in a lawsuit asking a federal court to strike down a legislative map because of a partisan gerrymander, and last year a district court agreed. while both p

one thing we learns about the ads targeted towards wisconsin and michigan, there were certainly someth islam and basically tried to stoke anti-muslim sentiment among those voters in those two states. anything that could drive a wedge between americans, it appeared the russians were on top of that. >> thank you, dylan. and there are other new developments tonight on the russia investigation and facebook. here's cnn's chief national correspondent jim sciutto. jim. >> reporter: don, you might say the key force here is force multiplier as the military might say. 3,000 ads, $100,000 over two years, not a big bill for the kremlin. and yet we now know $10 million people saw these ads before the elegs. and remember these were very tight races particularly in those swing states. the question is how influential were these ads in the actual election results? tonight investigators are reviewing thousands of facebook ads as part of the russian probe of wide ranging social media campaign to influence the u.s. presidential election. an estimated 10 million people in the u.s., according to facebook,

law in wisconsin.nd over 11% of registered voters who didn't vote in 2016 were, quote, deterred in some way by the voter i.d. law, either because they lacked irchl.d., they beli they land i.d. or were told at the poll that they weren't valid. that translates to as many as 45,000 people in those democratic strongholds in wisconsin who might have been discouraged from voting. 45,000. hillary clinton lost wisconsin by 22,000 votes. so voter i.d. might account for more than double the margin of votes by which she lost? in july 2014, u.s. attorney general eric holder called wisconsin's voter i.d. law pernicious >> can i spend the weekend writing questions for eric holder? >> yes. anything i absorb thereafter will make me pass out. >> there are so many. can't wait. >> thank you. >> thank you, rachel. >>> a white house chief of staff john kelly had a job to do today. take t

i'm from wisconsin. i have a concealed carry permit in wisconsin and there's a handful of states that will recognize that permit and say yes, , you can carry an ostensible. there's a a whole bunch of stas that don't recognize it. every time i go on a trip i had to do some research and make sure i understand where i can and can't carry a gun. what that translates into his were i can and can't defend myself. so the reciprocity bill that is in the senate and the house right now but essentially force every state to recognize the concealed permit severity of the stitches assembly do with drivers licenses, we're talking with tim schmidt of the u.s. concealed carry association. if you want to call and we'll have this conversation until 10:00 today. as folks are calling in, what do you think the lessons are from the las vegas shooting? >> guest: my goodness, the lessons are that it's so hard come so difficult to understand why a person would do something like this. i know there are so many people that are like h

i have nothing further. >> according to the law in wisconsin, whether or not the alleged victim agreedt matter. all the prosecutor must prove is that zach was 17 when he had sex with someone under the age of 16. >> zach you knew [ bleep ] was under 16 years old, right? >> yes. >> you knew she was 14. >> yes. >> she was a freshman? >> yes. >> at your high school where you were a senior? >> yes. >> and you had sexual intercourse with her? >> yes. >> i don't have anything else. >> no one disputes the facts. zach was 17 when he had sex with a 14-year-old. but the real question is does the punishment fit the crime? >> our system will allow you to go back into that deliberation room and go in with the understanding you're going to evaluate this case with your mind and with your heart and do what you think is the right thing to do and you'll have proven really that our system works and it works quite well. that you are all the conscience, a conscience that can be used to prevent unjust convictions. so whenever you think about the age difference between zach and [ bleep ], they're a lot alike.

milwaukee, wisconsin, 17-year-old zack was under arrest for having sex with another student from hisd freshman girl. in a matter of days, zack's case will go to trial, and he'll be represented by a public defender. so what is the status of zack's case right now? >> his charge is second-degree sexual assault of a child. there's only two things that the state has to prove, and that's that there was sexual intercourse and that the girl was under the age of 16. people under the age of 16 cannot legally consent to sexual contact or sexual intercourse, and the law is there to protect our kids. but i think as young as the girl is in this case -- and she's very young -- zack's really young too, even though he's treated as an adult because he's 17 years old. >> the prosecution is arguing that zack took advantage of his age and popularity to pressure a younger girl into having sex. but a recent psychological evaluation prepared by the defense found that zack doesn't fit the typical profile of a sex offender. the report also revealed zack is struggling with depression and anxiety, a development

the short answer in wisconsin is this was a republican gerrymander. they used computers and they came up with the most republican legislature they could think of drawing these lines and the resulting 2012 is that 49 percent of voters in wisconsin voted for republicans and the legislature that was elected by that 49 percent was six percent republican. so they got a result through gerrymandering that they did not get at the polls and it happened exactly the other way in illinois, maryland, massachusetts has not had a republican congressman in 20 years. 30 percent of the state votes for republicans. so this is a problem that i think needs to be addressed by the supreme court. i'm hopeful it will not be a so-called partyline vote as kennedy is the swing justice and he has indicated that he thinks overly partisan gerrymandering is wrong, but he said we need a test so that we are not being subjected when we look at it. and our goal in the wisconsin case is to see that there's a test, the numbers that i've described are an example of how you can prove that t

wisconsin is a fantastic place to visit in the fall. looking back, someone probably should have told hillary clinton that. [laughter] >> just saying. speaking of which, actually, i got a copy of her new book. this thing sums up politics perfectly. she took eight months writing ten hours a day to explain what happened in 512 pages. the president explained it in a tweet. #iwon. fact number two. we have primaries in the republican party these days. my primary opponent in 2016 was endorsed by sarah palin. i'm really not that bad about it because sarah and i have a lot in common. we both lost for vice president. we both debated joe biden. and given the current investigations, i too can see russia from the house. by the way, i do really appreciate these laughs. i don't get laughs unless i've actually debating joe biden. fact number three. they all say your popularity is going down because of my relation with donald trump. some disapprove of the way i defend the president. others say i don't offend him enough. the media understands all of this

and we in wisconsin like you and we adore cardinal dolan. we just do.

pennsylvania, michigan and wisconsin. wisconsin really clinched it and it was the one no pollsters saw. his team predicted trump's victory everywhere except wisconsin. everywhere they happened it was right but they didn't think wisconsin would come into the red column. once it did they said now you can pop the champagne cork. of course it took three or form more hours for the media to call it. people did their jobs and we were sort of left at the end, the breitbart crew, watching all this and realizing suddenly that donald trump is the next president of the united states. we covered this in the sense, we covered the conservative arguments as well as some of the liberal ones against it but we had been in the middle of the fight because breitbart had been one of the more conservative outlets of his candidacy. suddenly the reality hit us and it was a remarkable moment of victory. it was a privilege to be there. i write about that a lot of the drama in the book. >> to the party start to fill up once florida came in. >> oh yes

lauren: rachel, $3 billion is what wisconsin gave to get foxconn, why not amazon?n came to wisconsin because we have a business-friendly state, but i will tell you this, let me give you another perspective gerri, if you're a parent or grandparent whose kids and grandkids can now stay in wisconsin because there are better and higher-paying jobs, that's priceless. main purpose of -- >> it's not priceless. there's a price for everything. that's the question you have to ask. >> gerri, if it's your grand kid and they get to stay -- >> don't give me that. >> that's what we want companies to do. >> of course, we want companies to create jobs but we don't want to give away the store to get it. lauren: do you think there's a loss of regional identity when a big company comes in and basically takes over? not to mention wherever they decide to set up shop, it's going to be look like a construction zone for years not the mention the traffic jams, just saying? >> no downside for this. if i'm a mayor of a city or governor of the state, i give away the candy store. they are going

chairman perez was in wisconsin engaging with the wisconsin democrats recently, to say we need peopleobilizing on the ground. i was just recently in virginia where you have 43 women running for office, democratic women running for office as delegates. the opportunities are happening on the ground. so what we have to do is continue to push directly to talk to people on the ground in all aspects and not rely on one means. >> is your point that democratic voters are distracted by the tweets? >> no, everyone has been distracted by a lot of noise. because of the destruction happening in d.c. when you have an administration not helping the people of puerto rico and the virgin islands across the board, and the pain people are going through, then it is hard to then see the collective message. so our job as the democratic party is saying, you know what? we understand the problems coming out of d.c., but to the point that was raised in the piece, we don't just want to talk about the problem, we want to talk about the positive. and that is our job of communicating that out now. >> two very quick

think about my colleague from wisconsin. where are you, gary? he's saying to me on the floor of the state assembly a song. remember the song, gary? "red solo cup?" who knows what a red solo cup is? okay. i would dare so that most people in the beltway who do messaging for progressive people, for progressives don't know what the hell a red solo cup is. until they do, we will not win. we've got to get some red solo cup messaging out of the dnc. we have to. thank you. there's my question. can we do that? >> could i -- phenomenal. could i make one suggestion? first, this kind of feedback is invaluable. second, part of the idea is if you look at the goals every one is stated for everybody, for everybody, so nobody is overlooked. if you as a state legislator say, look, i'm for universal health coverage but we're never going to do it if the internet doesn't reach this district. you can put that also as part of the solution to the problem, and we can help support you on that's part of the solution. so both to put them in the goals, i love this suggestio

number one, like you've heard, i'm from wisconsin. wisconsin is a fantastic place to visit in the fall. looking back, probably should have told hillary clinton that fact.

find out if maryland picked up a big win in wisconsin. sports is next. us. >> and now the toyota sports desk brought to you by your local toyota dealer. >> back in early september, there was so much promise. so much excitement surrounding the maryland football team. the terps were 2-0 playing well. and then the injuries started to pile up. and so did the losses. maryland struggling right now. dropping three of their last four games. it didn't get any easier today in wisconsin. third quarter, terps q.b. max bortenschrager, a 10-yard touchdown and maryland down 28-10. the badgers controlled the line of scrimmage. racking up over 400 yards of total offense. austin ramas puts the game out of reach. maryland falls 38-13. in blacksburg, virginia tech battling north carolina. first quarter, greg stroman. fields the punt at his own 9. squirts through the middle. stroman still on his feet. outruns the defense and takes it all the way for a 91-yard touchdown. hokies up 14-0. second quarter, virginia tech pouring it on. reggie floyd. with the interception. has a wa

in wisconsin, they did both.one of the worst gerrymandering maps and voter suppression in history. >> and many wisconsins couldn't vote in the last election many of color. >> the two largest populations of african-americans and democratic voters in the state of wisconsin, the 20,000 people were not able to vote because of the voter id law. my organization, we went to court and went in federal court and beat scott walker when it came to attacking early voting rights in the state of wisconsin, and once we got some of the laws thrown out, when you give people a 21st century voting model they will vote and use the right to vote and we shattered early voting records here in the state of wisconsin in the 2016 elections. it has been top to bottom in attack on voter rights when it's voter intimidation or suppression. they were doing voter caging, for god sakes. they can't win in the court of public opinion, and we will have to see what happens in the supreme court. >> it feels like a lot of what we are see something lock

we compete directly with canadians in wisconsin and that's the way the world goes. they tax all of their businesses at 15%. 80% of our businesses in america aren't corporations, they're pass-throughs, llc's, subs's, and the tax rate is more than 40% in many cases and the average tax rate on businesses in the industrialized world, our major competitor is 22 1/2% so, businesses know this. businesses know that in tough competition where our economy has been pretty flat in sales, 1 and 2% growth. it's hard. they can't give raises, they can't hire and they're getting crushed in the international competition. if they're in a competitive industry, most businesses these days, businesses big and small know this. i hear two things. regulatory has been killing me and taxes are putting me out of business and we know-- they run the numbers. we know to get this tax system fixed woo we get the tax rates down, we will be in really, really good shape. >> as i look around at the conservative movement and the leaders of the conservative movement, i can't think of anybody around who is

wisconsin versus illinois rushes to my mind. so these are the issues that we have to help members see the big picture. and by the way, if people by doubling the standard deduction, low are people's tax rates and getting rid of the mayor's penalty, people are going to be better off. that's the point we have to make and we have to appeal to the general interest which is you want to grow jobs, you want american businesses to stop leaving this country, where i come from, the biggest company we used to have headquartered in wisconsin was johnson controls. i bet you the thermostat on the wall is probably a johnson control thermostat. they are an irish company. their worldwide tax rate and 12 1/2%, not 35%. that's happening all around the country where businesses are up and moving because of tax policy. and they're being bought by foreign companies and the headquarters are leaving and we're losing our seed capital. so i think for lots of reasons, members are beginning to appreciate -- there may be some narrow thing they don't particula

in wisconsin. that's the way the world goes. they tax all their businesses at 15%. 80% of our businesses in america are not corporations. they're what we call pass-throughs. it's where all the jobs come from for the most part. their tax rate is north of 40% in many cases. and the average tax rate on businesses in the industrialized world are major competitors is -- our major competitors is 22.5%. so businesses know this. businesses know that in tough competition, where our economy's been pretty flat and stale, 1% to 2% growth, it's really hard. they can't give raises, they can't hire. but more importantly, they're getting crushed in international competition, if they're in any kind of international and competitive industry, which is almost most industries these days. so businesses big and small know this very, very much. i hear two things. the regulatory state's been killing me and taxes are just putting me out of business. we know, they all run their numbers, we know we get this tax system fixed, we get these tax rates down, we

so why should you care about how wisconsin draws up these district? well, here's why, because if the us supreme court decides wisconsin's maps are un constitutial guess what, then the rest of the united states, and all 50 taits including maryland and virginia they are probably going to have to change the way they write up these congressional district. into this fray today, the govern or, arnold sharts nationer he comes to washington, stands in front of these steps and calls on the supreme court to take action. he puts it pretty plainly. you can't leave this up to congress. he wants the court to rule against thesier i man dering district. congress will never, ever fix this problem because they have one interest and one interest only is to stay in power. this is a shame to protect the incumbent. when you protect the incumbent, there's no economy advertising. no competition. that is the bottom line on this. so where do we stand? you got four liberals. you got four conservatives. you've before. this is going to come down to one man and one only, justice a

they point to wisconsin. in 2012 democrats won about 51% of the vote for the state legislature.6% but took more seats. not by one or two points. they turned that 48.6% into 60% of the legislature seats. in court today, paul smith argued that kind of outcome isn't just shrewd politics. he says it is a potentially illegal effort to undermine he democracy and said, you are the only institution in the pus can solve this problem just as democracy is about to get worse because of the way gerrymandering is getting so much worse. both parties have drawn absurd district lines to rig outcomes. >> north carolina's 12th district looks like spilled coffee. pennsylvania east 16th is flexing its muscles. and one commentator compared maryland's third to a broken winged tear dak tall. and then there's this. the ear muffs. >> one california governor went to the court steps to call out gerrymandering and use some of his best movie lines. >> it's the politicians picking the voters rather than the voters picking the politicians. it's time to say as that la vie that to gerrymandering and it is time t

william wiedefeld was a law office professor out in wisconsin. the congressional district mapping in wisconsin is not right. it's not constitutional. he wants the supreme court to do something about it. so this is a fair question, why should you care about the congressional re districting maps in wisconsin? this is why you should care. because if the supreme court decides that that map in wisconsin is unconscious al it could up end every other constitutional redistricting map throughout the kupt rirks states like maryland, states like virginia, they would all have to change how they do this. some court watches say that it's not a slam dunk that they would move into this directi supreme court likes to kind of stay out of these separation of powers between legislative, executive and the judicial. however, the supreme court justice right baider ginsberg just recently in georgetown law school she told students you might expect some surprises in this term. an historically the court has been very reluctant to tread into areas where it could be viewed a
