[06:51] NICK SCHIFRIN: Well, as Leila said, it's not clear, at least publicly clear, what the Israelis are doing, whether this is the full-scale invasion, the goals of which are to uproot Hamas physically and politically, or if this is just more what the U.S. military calls shaping operations, being incursions ahead of a large invasion.
[07:16] And there are U.S. hopes that, if this is the invasion, the Israelis have decided to do it a little bit differently than what we have seen in the past, a little bit more measured, a little bit more slow-rolled,

[17:30] But local state representatives, as well as local residents here, tell me that they want to see a red flag law put in place. Currently, Maine has a yellow flag law. Now, the difference there, Geoff, is that a red flag law allows family members, police members to petition a judge to temporarily take away guns from a person that they deem a threat that may have a mental health issue. Now, a yellow flag law requires police to first seek a medical evaluation before they can go to a judge to petition to then temporarily take away a person's guns.

[33:40] We did see one lawmaker come out with a remarkable reversal. I want to play for anyone who missed this piece of sound from Democratic Republican (sic) Jared Golden, who reversed his position on assault weapons bans right after the shooting.
[38:45] And the more information we find out about him and the more information the American people find out about him, the more I think they're going to be uncomfortable, from his pushing for a national abortion ban, to introducing legislation for a federal so-called don't say gay bill, his comments on homosexuality and same-sex marriage. Amna, he said way back that legalizing same-sex marriage was a dark harbinger of chaos that could doom even the strongest republic. I had no idea Nick and I were that powerful. And now here's this man who is now the speaker of the House, two heartbeats away from the presidency, and he has far-right views, far-right views that make former Speaker Kevin McCarthy look like a moderate.

[39:56] For me, the bad news about Johnson is the wing of the evangelical world he emerges from. And so, for example, one of the people he's praised is a pseudo-historian named David Barton. And Barton has been -- has a powerful bloc in a subculture of the evangelical world that has been arguing, falsely, that our founders never believed in separation of church and state, that Thomas Jefferson was an ardent Christian who wanted to make this a Christian nation.
