luckily it didn t get worse than that. police say this followed verbal confrontations against protesters and a driver. in phoenix, a crowd of abortion rights protesters surrounded the state law building, tear gas was used to disperse the crowd. as of today, 13 states have trigger laws banning abortions in light of the ruling. some gomboldened house republicans want to push a ban on abortion at 15 weeks nationwide. leaders around the world are blasting the supreme court s decision, calling it a huge blow to women s rights and gender equality. cnn has a team covering today s protests. polo sandoval is in fnew york. but we begin with joe johns, outside the supreme court. joe? reporter: jim, we have certainly seen this crowd growing over the last several hours. it has been peaceful but it has been confrontational. when i worked up i saw people on either side of this issue essentially yelling and cursing at each other but it has not gone physical. there s a lot of anger ....
good evening. i m anderson cooper along with my colleague jake tapper in washington for a special two-hour 360, looking at what was a truly extraordinary day of witness testimony and stunning new details revealed during the january 6th committee hearings. former top officials at the justice department offering details, sometimes moment by moment descriptions of private phone calls and meetings demonstrating how the former president personally and continually tried to convince them to support his fraudulent claims about a stolen election. part of today s hearing focused on someone whose home was actually raided by federal investigators yesterday, former justice department official named jeffrey clark. we re going to have more on that raid in just a moment. the committee s interest about clark has to do with the former president s effort to install clark as acting attorney general so that clark could use the levers of the justice department to subvert joe biden s victor ....

swing the election to the former president. this is what it looked like in michigan back in december when those fake electors actually showed up at the state house and tried to talk their way past police. the electors are here. they ve been checked in. we re electors. we re electors. all 16 electors are inside. the elector college has been checked. but these are the rest of the electors. he said the rest of the electors. there s no such thing. it may seem ludicrous watching that, but according to testimony that we ll hear more of tomorrow, this was part of a multi-pronged scheme by the president and his allies to overturn the results of the election. it is unprecedented in our history. the seriousness and the risks are important to remember. adam kinzinger tweeted a letter he said he received at his home. it was addressed to his wife and mentioned how she and her husband and their child would be executed. he warns it s a vision of what s to come in our politic ....
