Called her out on it, a public service to everybody. an iud prevents implantation of a fertilized egg. you cannot have a presidency pregnancy unless implanted in the uterus. and somebody s doctor lied in front of the senate. and patty murray was like smacked down today. go, patty. i know they are yelling because you re going to run out of time, but we should just think about this for a second. that person who sat there and told that lie with a political agenda is somebody s doctor. yeah. who is your mvp? i want to go in a different direction. corey harris, who became viral out of driving to his zoom hearing about driving with a suspended license. walk astray, because people are not going into this game but everybody saw the video. he drove to his zoom hearing with a judge on his suspended license hearing. and everybody was like oh my
Our nightcap is still here with our mvps of the week. liz, who had the biggest week in your mind? what are my heroes, peppermint patty murray from washington s date who took on an antiabortion position, who spoke in front of the senate, and actually lied about that iuds were actually an abortion, and patty murray called her out on it. it was a public service to everybody. an iud prevents implantation of a fertilized egg. you cannot have a pregnancy unless it is implanted in the uterus. that is a fact. and that dr., was somebody s doctor, lied in front of the senate. patty murray was like, smack down today. go patty. i know they re yelling because were going to run out
In 2017, we had, republicans had both the house, the senate and the white house and he was not a dictator but i think you forgot that in his talking points. trace: i think he did. finally, james carville said the following. more slanted garbage and i think we ought to recognize the threat that this guy in the maga, not just him but the entire movement from trump on down is a serious, it s serious and present danger to the existence of the constitution in the united states and i mean that. trace: it s not just trump, jason, 20 seconds left, it s half the country! i love the idea that he once slanted coverage as if that s not precisely what s happening every day. how much more slanted could it possibly be? everyone sees it for what it is but it s becoming the boy who
