wendy davis, former texas state senator and founder of deeds not words. welcome to you both. jim, let's start with you. how seriously should lgbtq americans take john justice thomas's threat to reconsider cases like lawrence and obergefell? they are those who are saying that other conservatives like roberts and gorsuch would not be willing to go that far. do you believe that? >> i do not. we should be very concerned. all you have to do is look at the decision in 2015. roberts was not on our side and way anyone would think any of these other extreme right-wing justices would be on our side is fooling themselves. justice thomas is concurring opinion clearly is giving the language and rationale opponents of the lgbtq -- lgbtq plus equality can attack our right to privacy to engage in intimate relations with the person we left. to marry the person we love. no, i don't believe any member of the lgbtq plus community should feel safe regardless of that decision says. when alito says this should not be taken to endanger or be used against marriage equality. we should not believe that

with us now to talk about this is former texas state senator wendy davis who in 2013 stood on the floor of the texas state senate for 13 hours trying to block a bill that would restrict abortion. thank you for being with us this morning. i'm curious what are your thoughts? what went through your mind when the decision was announced last friday? >> because we have been on the ground here in texas already dealing with essentially an abortion ban post-six weeks of pregnancy, we since september of last year have begun figuring out and a pretty good job of the logistics of getting people from our state to other states for care. the reality is as one woman said to planned parenthood clinic worker, you could charter a private jet for me and i would not be able to leave my children and leave my job to do that. that reality is going to confront people across the country in states where abortion will now be or is soon to be illegal. we know it's going to disproportionately impact women of color and women who living in marginalized communities and the threat to the income divide that already exist

to change. >> wendy davis, thank, you we appreciate it. i don't want to note everybody, as we are continuing this coverage here outside of the supreme court, and as i've been walking around and showing you the protesters as well. i want to note that sometimes we see things on signs that we don't necessarily show normally on national television. some things are explicit. it's an emotional time for people. i just wanna make that note. apologies in advance, or after the fact of course if it offended anybody. we don't mean to do that in any y shape or form. okay, still ahead everybody, more live coverage from the supreme court. including my conversation with two young mothers. taking on trump supporters of the january 6th hearing, at the good lawyers join us with their latest journey into maga world. >> the january 6th hearings have been going on. how do you watch any of them? >> yes. it's all bullshit. it is crap. >> why do you think? that >> because of -- >> as president biden begins his -- pressure from democrats at home to do more to defen

davis. senator davis, you did, based on the leaked draft, still seeing it officially handed down, what goes through your mind? >> you know, this morning when the decision came out, anderson, my reaction to it was as a mother and grandmother of two daughters and two granddaughters. it wasn't as a former-elected official or reproductive rights champion. it was understanding, on a very personal level, what this was going to mean for them and what it's going to mean for our granddaughters and daughters across this country in states where abortion will now be illegal. and i know i am not alone. i know that there are women and men who are waking up to the sobering reality of what this is going to mean and the future of our daughters' and granddaughters' lives. their ability to realize their dreams, their able to continue the march for full equality that my generation and generations before started. and it's just a tremendously sobering moment in this country's history, and for all of us, personall

former texas state senate wendy davis with us now. ms. davis, you and i talked this issue recently when i was in texas reporting on this draft opinion when it first came out. texas is a state with a trigger law. 30 days from now essentially all apportions in the state of texas will be illegal. no state in the country where this is issue is probably more on the ballot than in the governor's race that you're having right now in the state of texas. talk to me about how texans and women in texas feel about this issue and how you see the political landscape around this issue in the lone star state? >> thanks so much, garrett. you know, women in texas, people in texas, are no different than voters in states across the country in terms of their attitude, perspectives, about the need to protect autonomy and the right to make decisions about our own bodies. so i think we are going to see, i hope, a backlash in november by voters who honestly believed, even after that draft opinion was leaked, that somehow magically this right was not going to go a

davis as somebody who couldom help turn texas purple.ca you're a rock star. no, just so many people who arex back to texas is up for grabs, says itt all 2020 elections are approaching and within the possibility think aboutn this that deep red texas could turn blue for the first time since jimmy carter in 1976. >> nice try. of course we never bought any of this . we certainly didn't buyuy into a defeatist mindset on the gop part. after all, we know that liberal policies, once they're really embraced and enacted well, they end up producingg only resentment then a lower standardonr of living, more cre and of course misery for everybody except maybe a few plutocrats. when the angle reported from san francisco, we sense that people there hadse just gotten fed up with the crime, the filth and yes, the homelessness. nd i have a friend who was mugged on the corner right here at twor p.m. on a tuesday broad daylight. it feels lawless. people don't feel safe in the city. it's a reality. it's not a media ploy.of violent crimes are up because of these policies. it's a ca
