- 0:53Speaker 1: Stay with me. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanches facing new
- 1:00Speaker 1: scrutiny after a private conversation about abortion was made public.
- 1:04Speaker 1: Blanche was recorded during a closed door call with faith
- 1:07Speaker 1: leaders hosted by the White House Faith Office. The recording,
- 1:11Speaker 1: first reported by Politicoal, was later posted online by the
- 1:15Speaker 1: religious group Intercessors for America. On the call, Blanche says
- 1:19Speaker 1: the administration wants to make the Supreme Court twenty twenty
- 1:22Speaker 1: two decision about overturning Roe v. Wade permanent in every
- 1:27Speaker 1: single state.
- 1:28Speaker 2: It states that have said we are not. We are
- 1:30Speaker 2: going to protect the unborn and we're going to protect
- 1:33Speaker 2: every life from the moment of conception. We're putting practices
- 1:38Speaker 2: and policies in place so that other states and other
- 1:41Speaker 2: organizations can't attack that, and they can't do things like
- 1:44Speaker 2: they're doing with mailing and mail order drugs and things
- 1:48Speaker 2: like that. And it's a process that takes a lot
- 1:52Speaker 2: of time, and that's why it's been nineteen months and
- 1:55Speaker 2: we don't have complete victory yet. But we will have victory,
- 1:58Speaker 2: and victory will be soon, and then it will be permited.
- 2:02Speaker 1: Blancheays the administration is looking to limit access to abortion
- 2:05Speaker 1: pills by tightening rules on telehealth prescriptions and medications sent
- 2:10Speaker 1: through the mail. Medication abortion now accounts for more than
- 2:13Speaker 1: half of all abortions in the US, and abortions by
- 2:16Speaker 1: mail have grown sharply since Roe was overturned. Blanche's comments
- 2:21Speaker 1: come just days after the Senate Judiciary Committee voted to
- 2:24Speaker 1: advance his nomination for Attorney General. His confirmation now heads
- 2:28Speaker 1: to the full Senate. In almost thirty years after TUPAC
- 2:37Speaker 1: Shakor was shot and killed in Las Vegas. The man
- 2:40Speaker 1: prosecutor say ordered the hit is finally going to trial.
- 2:44Speaker 1: Sixty three year old Duwayne Keefey D Davis is charged
- 2:47Speaker 1: with murder and accused of orchestrating the nineteen ninety six
- 2:51Speaker 1: drive by shooting. Jury selection begins Monday, and the trial
- 2:55Speaker 1: is expected to last about a month. The case dates
- 2:58Speaker 1: back to September seventh, nineteen ninety six. Tupac was riding
- 3:02Speaker 1: in a BMW with Death Row Records co founder should
- 3:05Speaker 1: Knight after a Mike Tyson fight when a white Cadillac
- 3:08Speaker 1: pulled alongside them and opened fire. Tupac was shot several
- 3:13Speaker 1: times and died six days later. Night survived. Here's KVD
- 3:17Speaker 1: in a recent interview. If you did not have anything
- 3:21Speaker 1: to do with Tupac Shakor's murder, who do you.
- 3:23Speaker 3: Think did.
- 3:26Speaker 1: To me?
- 3:28Speaker 3: I think a Wigner's Reggie Wright Junior only does by
- 3:33Speaker 3: his chill storage.
- 3:35Speaker 2: He even be on interview three in Masan it was
- 3:39Speaker 2: a three in Law Balley, It's bawl. He became to
- 3:43Speaker 2: me a long interviews three in Law Balley, It's fall.
- 3:48Speaker 1: Reggie White Junior is the former head of security for
- 3:51Speaker 1: death Row Records and a former Prompton police officer. Wright
- 3:55Speaker 1: testified before the grand jury that indicted KVD, but has
- 3:58Speaker 1: repeatedly denied any involvement in Tupac's murder. Prosecutors say this
- 4:03Speaker 1: case isn't about proving who pulled the trigger and staid.
- 4:06Speaker 1: They argue Keefd orchestrated the attack by supplying the gun
- 4:09Speaker 1: and calling the shots, and much of their case comes
- 4:12Speaker 1: from KIFD in his own words, including his memoir in
- 4:16Speaker 1: years of interviews describing what happened that night. Other expected
- 4:21Speaker 1: witnesses include former Las Vegas Detectives, investigators who reopened the case,
- 4:25Speaker 1: and people connected to Tupac and death Row Records. If convicted,
- 4:30Speaker 1: KIFD would become the first person ever convicted in connection
- 4:33Speaker 1: with one of pip Hop's most infamous unsolved murders. And lastly,
- 4:43Speaker 1: Whoopy Goldberg is getting candid about why she stayed at
- 4:46Speaker 1: the View for nearly two decades. During an interview with
- 4:50Speaker 1: Keki Palmer, Goldberg was asks about what she likes most
- 4:53Speaker 1: about being the moderator of the daytime talk show. When
- 4:57Speaker 1: Kiki asks just how much she makes, Whoopy didn't reveal
- 4:59Speaker 1: an number, but she did say people would be shocked.
- 5:03Speaker 2: There's all the show is called. I love the check.
- 5:07Speaker 1: I can only imagine what the check is.
- 5:10Speaker 3: No, no, no, trust me, you can't. You would be shocked.
- 5:17Speaker 2: You would shock theme to the view.
- 5:18Speaker 1: I can play her guys.
- 5:21Speaker 3: Yeah, but as soon as they showed you that check,
- 5:23Speaker 3: you'd be like what the.
- 5:25Speaker 1: Goldberg later explained she's grateful to have the steady work.
- 5:28Speaker 1: She says if she had enough money to never work again,
- 5:32Speaker 1: and she probably wouldn't be at the View, But nearly
- 5:35Speaker 1: twenty years later after joining the show, she says she
- 5:37Speaker 1: never takes the opportunity for granted.
- 5:40Speaker 3: I look around every day before I leave my house,
- 5:45Speaker 3: and I see my family, and I see pictures of folks,
- 5:48Speaker 3: and I think, oh, yeah, it's good to have a job.
- 5:51Speaker 3: And I come to work a lot of people don't
- 5:53Speaker 3: have jobs. Yeah, so I'm lucky.
