Description

Greg Bluestein reports from the scene of Donald Trump's fundraising luncheon, which is expected to bring in several million dollars. But the event reveals once again the split among GOP leaders over support for Trump. 
  
The panel shifts to look at Trump’s declaration Monday that he doesn’t support a federal abortion law but believes each state should make individual decisions on how to handle abortion. A day later, the Arizona state Supreme Court ruled that an 1864 law outlawing almost all abortions is still legal and enforceable there. 
  
Plus, the panel looks at Marjorie Taylor Greene’s ramped-up attacks on U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson.
