morning highlighting the difference of approach. now post-conviction between vulnerable, vulnerable republicans running in new york, vulnerable republicans running in california, republican representatives might garcia, michelle steel, david validate you. these are in california of stayed mom in the days since the verdict despite multiple requests to their campaigns for comment, yet mike lawler out of new york, who has kept an arm's distance from trump in some, in some respects for sure, saying this after the conviction, our elections should be decided at the ballot box, not by partisan prosecutors. what do you make of the different approaches? and maybe most importantly now how how hard is it for republicans to navigate that aren't named trump? >> well, let me give you an example from california with michelle steel who you just named. she's had an incredible grassroots ground game for years. her coming to congress was the result of many years of establishing goodwill in her district she's a prolific fundraiser. she's an example of somebody who understand. she's out on her own by herself, has to hang out there because donald trump's not going to
and jamaal bowman, i should say it's been among the most outspoken and he has definitely has a lot of support on some of the progressive side, but he has raised the ire of other democrats because he is using words like genocide. he was one of the first people to call for a ceasefire and he is now being challenged by somebody who is has the support of pro-israel democrats and republicans yeah. >> and you know, we can argue all we want about how much the israel-hamas this war is going to end up being a factor in the presidential election. but i think you look at a race that jamaal bowman is currently running and you see an example of a kind of district where that issue may actually end up being incredibly important. there's a ton of money pro-israel money that has already poured in to that race to poured his opponent and the fact that we are seeing this kind of fracture that's pretty unusual with his former
primary opponent now the reason bowman is one of the largest and most outspoken critics of israel and congress and jones monday or jones told the jewish insider that quote, this is about standing up for the jewish community. >> it's just critically important we've rebuke extremists that some would have take over the democratic party left unsaid, is that the district monday or jones wants to because that has one of the largest jewish communities in the country. my panel is back this is really it really does spotlight what is happening that democratic party for a whole host of reasons. >> if you just go back not that far to 2020 jamaal bowman mandir jones, they were both elected in neighboring districts in new york they were the first black man to represent parts of westchester county. they both defeated democratic incumbents and now
you lately. now, it depends on each district and there are some there's district by district, some members are going thank to focus are going to highlight trump's conviction, going to highlight republican antics against the department of justice, but it plays into this larger scheme generally speaking, regardless of how aggressively each individual members going to play on this, that it's a maga maga extreme party who doesn't have any answers economically to help people. and this is all that they're interested in. >> you know, it's interesting because i see the reasoning for that argument at the same time, i think what republicans are doing as much broader than just a specific attack when the doj, it's a sewing of distrust and a lot of institutions they've done this in terms of the legal system they've done this about media, they've done this in terms of the political process and that is the kind of what democrats are up against. and so sometimes it feels like democrats are bringing a knife to a gunfight here because it's not just that republicans
this border security issue for years to this point but i represent nearly half of the southern border. i have been very vocal at wanting to work with anyone who wants to solve this problem because my district is at the center of this crisis. i do not believe one word out of joe biden's mouth because they have done absolutely nothing. if he was really serious about securing this border, what about the 10 million people that are here illegally that i've already broken our laws? what about importing them? what about that? there is no discussion on that. it's a simple half action that is met months before the election to confuse people not only have i given up on the president, i believe most americans do not trust what the president is saying and they don't believe in the administration would ever want to secure this border. >> john: in terms of whether or not the american people lost faith with the president here's
the goodwill of american people is wearing thin. we have to take action now. that could be on nod to what we have seen in the last year and a half, terkel years spreading across the country different cities being overrun with migrants, having to put them up in hotels, having to cut city budgets, cutting school budgets, police department budgets to house these migrants coming in their cities. the border used to be the idea was oh it's just the texas, arizona, may be a california thing, not a more. once governor abbott started busing them around the country in 2022 that really expanded over the last couple of years with migrants showing up all over the place. hey this is affecting me and my life and my child's life. my child's school classroom sizes are exploding from the district budgets having to make different indentations for migrant children coming in. john, the bottom line is the biden administration has to change the feel of the border.
time for a change. >> sandra: to your point if he can take this action today he could've taken it six months ago, a year ago, terkel years ago? >> it took an election to get them off of dead center. even then it's not even a real situation. if it was real i would say you know what? i will take five months over nine months but the facts are nothing is going to change. i suspect it's only going to get worse. why? because the administration wants this. this is exactly what they want. they want to blame someone else for it. it you can blame all these other people. the facts are you are the president of the united states. what are we doing with the 10 million people in this country illegally? how are you allowing this to happen when they've artie broken our laws question what do you want to get serious? you do poor people are already here illegally and put the american public first. might district is over 70% hispanic and we have had enough. we are going what about us? why are we lost in this
everything that's problematic about him from the perspective of what voters find troubling is built into the price of admission. none of it's new. none of it's shocking. none of it needs to be assessed and reassessed. the best hope for -- what joe biden really needs to have happen is for donald trump to get out of the courtroom, which he can now do, is get on the campaign trail and talk the way trump often talks to remind voters of all the reasons why they've been exhausted by him and why they voted against him or wanted him gone after 2020. i think with down ballot republicans it just depends on the state and the district. i defer to dave here because it's his specialty. but if you're looking at republican senate candidates in montana and ohio, on the one hand the incumbent democrats have strong brands and they have a history of winning tough races. on the other hand, we saw that even in 2018 as republicans were getting shellacked in the house,
sense of like, oh my god, we belong here. and i don't think a lot of our youngsters, you know, know her for what she does. pastor sweetie williams is one of the community's elders. silitonga looks up to as she helps design this district. that's an image, you know, for any any child you know, to go after and mimic her work. what are your hopes for this district? we want our own people to realize that we need to be, you know, standing alone, you know, and find help for our people and educate them on how we got to where we're at right now. what do you feel with everything that you've gone through to do this kind of work today? how i feel now is like, i understand or i feel like i understand what my purpose is, but it'll be like the next generation after us, and i want them to have the best. jia, thanks for the introduction. coming up, oakland's new
big cat came face to face with a brave, though tiny dog. it even climbed to the roof of a house. did the mountain lion that is it spent at least the fourth mountain lion sighting in recent days. now, the day before, another person spotted a mountain lion five miles away near oakland road and murphy avenue. we're at the corner of the road and suddenly a head pops out of the enclosure over there and there was no doubt by the size of it and how close we were that it was a mountain lion. one thing we don't know is , is it the same cat in both of these videos, neighbors say they are optimistic fish and wildlife will be able to track it down and relocate it. well we are celebrating asian american, native hawaiian and pacific islander heritage, and tonight we're highlighting the newest cultural district in san francisco, approved by supervisors in 2022, it will celebrate pacific islanders. and there's one woman leading those efforts. i talked to her about the new district and her
