Senior legal analyst laura coates about this. good evening to you. what do you think of what justin kagan said, her warning? >> justice caning is absolutely right. this would be the definitive slippery slope. we hear about this could be a slippery slope, might have a domino effect. if you allow states to be able to an end run around judicial review, you give them cart blanch to do whatever they want as long as they figure out a way not to have a state actor enforce the law. remember, fundamental...

To do an end run around judicial review, you essentially give them carte blanche to do whatever they want as long as they can figure out a way not to have a state actor enforce the law. remember, fundamentally whats wrong with this case is that normally, if you want to try to prevent a law from going into effect, you have to be able to sue the state actor who was charged under the statute to actually enforce the law. in texas, they decided, huh, we will avoid that by allowing anyone in the count...

That suggests they know who did it and theres a state actor involved. if that is the theory theyve not been able to affirm that in or out. and thats one of the reasons that we shouldnt hold out that the government is getting to the bottom of it soon. >> real quick, when can we get concrete answers? you said last week that the deputy director of the cia said that we are or they are getting closer to figuring out the cause of this? >> well, we know that theres a renewed investigation under way tha...

Official whose job it is to enforce that law. a police officer, somebody who might be the board supervisor in some capacity. they dont have a state actor. it can be a private citizen who just says ive got a problem with what youve done and im not going to have to be beholden to a specific definition of what it means to aid and abet. it could be the uber driver. how about the donor to planned parenthood. how about somebody that suggests the person speak with an abortion care provider. all fair ga...
