. >> the texas immigration law, sb.4 is going to remain on hold. the appeals court ruling the fifth circuit saying that it has to be sorted out by the supreme court, i guess. >> yes, and you know, this was clearly the signal we got from the supreme court last week, even though they themselves failed to put it on hold. they strongly signaled that this was the job of the fifth circuit, and they ought to do that. by a 2 to 1 ruling, they decided to do that, and so now we'll see the issue on the merits decided by the supreme court. but in the meantime, we preserve the status quo of federal law being supreme. >> and just very briefly, garrett, what lara trump also told you is that people who are donors can opt out of paying for his legal bills. >> that's right, the rnc will not support him directly. if you give to the broader constellation of groups that your big check would go to the party, you could say i don't want to support donald trump's legal bills. we'll see how that all shakes out as well. >> garrett haake and barbara mcquade, thank you. barbar

whether it's the alabama ivf ruling, whether it's these cases out of texas, whether it's the assault on emergency care, we're going to continue to see because of the dobbs decision, and the failure sadly of many republicans to side with us on codifying roe v. wade into law, we are not able to do that right now. that's why this is so important. not just this decision but this election that's coming up. because we would have at built to codify roe v. wade into law if we elect people who stand on side of women making their own health care decisions. >> congress filed a brief in this. you are a former prosecutor. you have been a lawyer for a long, long time. you know that the supreme court's dobbs decision said it was up to the individual states, leaving it to the states to make decisions. but what you outlined would be if this pill were outlawed, this medication and other medications that are regulated by the fda, nationally would be banned. >> yeah. that's the irony of this. when you look at justice alito's quotes from that time period where he said, we should let the states decide, lo

typically, like we've seen with joe biden the course of the last week -- and in texas, for example, he had three separate private fundraisers. typically, you see nominees travel the country for purposes of financing for their campaign. donald trump is still going to have friday, saturday, sundays available to him. donald trump had no campaign events here this weekend. again, he was free but chose not to. the last time we saw him was a week ago in ohio when he campaigned for bernie marino. for donald trump, i think this comes down to a lot of where does he end up putting his priorities? if he becomes the president of the united states, that would effectively keep him from, if he were to be found guilty on any of these felony counts here in new york, from likely having to go to jail. for him, i think the political stakes are the highest stakes of all because so much is going to be riding on his business and personal future, going to be riding on his political fate just seven months from now in this november general election. >> vaughn, we're going to bring in our political analyst. repub

adding to the concerns is the wild video of migrants rushing a fence near el paso, texas. the spending bill includes a compromise of nearly half a billion dollars for border patrol agents and funds and 41,000 beds at detention centers. there are concerns about millions of dollars in earmarks added to the deal on everything from childcare to cancer research. it does face pending senate amendments, possible repeat of senator michael bennet's past threats to delay and protest for stalled funding for ukraine, which is not going to come up for at least another month. the deadline is midnight tonight. as congress prepares to go on a two-week recess for easter holiday. we start off with ryan nobles. you have been busy everywhere. where does the count stand? are there any alarm bells, especially as it now heads to the senate? what do you think about this motion to vacate? is that symbolic? is that real? that's one of the new house rules that was passed last year, kevin mccarthy legacy, that speaker johnson certainly alluded to. he will try to get rid of at end of this year if he i

let's head to the border and david noriega in eagle pass, texas. do residents and law enforcement know what is going to happen? are they ready to start enforcing it or will they wait for the supreme court? >> reporter: andrea, the short answer is nobody really knows what it would look like if this law were to go into affect, even the attorney representing texas in yesterday's hearing before the fifth circuit panel acknowledged that he could not paint a clear picture of what enforcement of this law would look like. law enforcement is an interesting set of people to talk to about this. nbc news has interviewed multiple sheriffs in texas. many of them support the law. they support governor abbott. they are willing to do whatever they need to do. others, particularly here in border counties, are uncertain, confused, a little worried about what this will mean for their departments given the limited resources. if the law does go into affect, given the recent press -- precedent of lone star, we can expect most to be carried out by state troopers targeting

enforcement of the texas is complicated. local texas law enforcement would be able to arrest people, even asylum seekers, on the suspicion that they had illegally crossed the border. the state judges could deport them. the 5th circuit fast tracked the hearing after the supreme court in a split decision overturned a lower court as decision that put enforcement on hold while appeals by immigrant advocacy groups and the department of justice are decided. hours later, in the middle of the night our time, the 5th circuit put it back on hold and then set today's hearing. ken dilanian has been monitoring all of these arguments. this is one of the most complicated back and forths between the supremes and a district court i have ever seen. talk to us about this. any highlights from the hearing? >> it is a murky legal thicket. you explained it very well. daniel barns, who has been listening to the hearing, says it's not going well for the state of texas in front of the three-judge panel at the conservative 5th circuit court of appeals
