decision actually walk people through what affirmative action is and isn't, and we shouldn't believe how it's being distorted by folks. >> alison, let me get your reaction to a 2022 study. professor quartey is a pros fesser. this is what was found from the study in 2020 from the university of california. black and latino admissions at the more competitive campuses of ucla and berkeley dropped 40%. annual wages of underrepresented minority university of california applicants dropped by 5% from ages 24 to 34, and early career underrepresented minority californians broadly making over $100,000 dropped by at least 3%. your reaction to the impact
former president barack obama's washington aber hood with multiple firearms and materials to make a molotov cocktail. according to law enforcement the suspect, taylor toronto, claimed on an internet live stream that he had a detonator. toronto also had a open warrant for his arrest, related to the january six insurrection. let's get right to cnn -- andrew mccabe he's the author of the threat, how the fbi protects america in the age of terror and trump. so, andy, this is scary obviously. do we know how law enforcement was able to zero in on this guy? >> alison, some of the reporting that i've seen indicates that the secret service in the area around the obama residence observed him acting suspiciously or running through the neighborhood, things like that. they interacted with him, identified him, and determined that he has an outstanding warrant for his activities in the capital on january six. i think the whole thing
completely -- the politics are very clear, every national poll, every major national poll i have ever seen that you reported on tonight, alison, shows that americans do not want this, if they do not like, it they think it is fundamentally unfair, and so for a court that is often -- has its legitimacy question, this was the most uncontroversial decision of the term. it is the most lopsided decision of the term. you just look at public opinion, they got it right by the law, they also got it right by the old famous kentucky supreme court justice john marshall harlan, and -- our constitution is color blind, thanks to clarence thomas and the court today, they finally lived up to that. i'm glad for the decision, every conservative i know is as well. >> i know you all have very different perspectives and opinions on, that natasha, i get it -- and we should say that -- harvard admissions rate has gone up in the past years.
prosecutor's own investigation into alleged attempts by trump's and his allies to steal the election there. for the record, the former president has insisted time and again that he did nothing wrong, and many of his team have said they just want to make sure that the election was above board. alison? >> tom,,, thank you very much for all of that. let's bring in former trump white house lawyer jim schultz along with cnn legal analyst, -- cnn law enforcement and intelligence analyst john miller. great of all of you. jim, we've all heard that call to brad raffensperger where donald trump asked him to find 11,780 more votes, and in brad raffensperger's book, he said that he believed that it was a threat. what does jack smith, what more does jack smith want to know from brad raffensperger today in this interview? >> well, my sense is, when you are seeing folks like raffensperger and other public officials, and folks closer to the inner circle of donald
i running into an ambush? so, i think that is such a remarkable video. we saw that, we saw it in nashville, at the school. we saw it at louisville, in the bank. we have seen the flipside. if you take this week, alison, what are we going through? we've got three officers indexes who opened fire far too quickly on a woman who was charging at them with a hammer. they are charged with murder now. you have scott peterson in florida, in parkland, on trial, literally, for not doing what we saw here. it underscores that being a police officer is complicated under pressure, being driven by fear, trying to control that, and make sensible decisions. >> so, john, the backstory, or more to flush out the story, eight people died. that shooter, that active shooter, k killed eight people shopping on any given day at a mall in america, and that police officer killed him. >> yes, and it was entirely
and when i looked at the authorisations for targeting me, it's signed off at every level. it goes from one kind of level to another, all the way up to commander level. and to me, all of them are culpable. so, alison, how were you involved in this, how were you enmeshed in this? so, i had a relationship with somebody called mark cassidy. i knew him as mark cassidy. i later discovered his name was markjenner. from 1995 to 2000. so we lived together for five years. i was a member of a political group in hackney that was involved in trade union politics and antiracist politics, antifascist politics. and i thought we were very much in love. he disappeared from my life in 2000, in spring 2000, and it didn't add up. just almost like overnight?
to by the commissioner of the met saying that there is nothing - they have to disclose to me. what do you make of that? this is one of our biggest campaign asks, really, i is that we do see our files and that all of the activists _ who were spied on see their files. alison, you want yourfile, do you know that file actually exists? well, it's a very good question because, no, i don't know that it does. i had the same response. i made several requests for my files and was told the commissioner has nothing he is obliged to share with you. recently, through the inquiry, our lawyers requested our registry file numbers, which is the number of our special branch file and there didn't appear to be one for me. so that is curious. so you might have been disappeared from the system? it's possible that some of these officers chose to write us out of these reports, in order to cover their tracks. what we don't know first of all is,
