holiday. from the sounds of it, they're not ready to give up, despite all signs pointing to failure. we want to welcome tonight, simone sanders, former chief spokesperson for vice president harris. she'll be hosting an upcoming show here on msnbc and our streaming channel. tim miller, a contributor, welcome to both of you. simone, welcome to the family. it will be fun working with you on a regular basis. i think it's fair to say this may be the most meaning of the mlk jr. holiday since the holiday existed, because it's the first time since this holiday existed that we are in an active and current fight for voting rights, the very stuff martin luther king was fighting for while he was alive. >> thank you for having me tonight, ali, and i'm so excited to be here with you and with tim. i love tim, i'm a fan. can't wait to hear what he has to say.
