I was already ready for a fun show but you were super charged. A few minutes ago i was listening to you and dan goldman have a conversation when you uttered the words, the my pillow guys soliloquy, words i never thought i would hear in my life. Im deeply appreciative for you kicking it off for us. Have yourself a great game and well talk about the bucs on monday. I will do, ali. Thank you very much, my friend. Thanks, friend. All right. Well, tonight it is a tale of two parties. One is governing and the other it is not clear what the other party is doing. Republicans are destroying themselves from the inside, consumed with feuds over how loyal they can be to a former president who incited an insurrection. And fighting over what actions to not take about the dangerous conspiracyspewing congresswoman Marjorie Taylor greene. Meanwhile, democrats want to pass laws and help americans who are hurting from the pandemic. Today joe biden made it clear he will pass his covid Relief Package with
Thispast summer in their arguments. Will you then respond to Maxine Waters with a number of other Democrat Officials not speaking out against the antifa and otherextremist rallies over the last summer . I think, you can count on that. The my if my eyes look a little red to the viewers, its because i have been looking at a lot of video, the last several days. Plus, congresswoman Marjorie Taylor greene says shes been freed to push the Republican Party further to the right. This, amid growing divisions within the gop. Exactly one month, after the Capitol Insurrection, the New York Times releasing a breakdown of who has been arrested. Including, at least 22 current members or former members of the military. And health officials, warning super bowl watch parties could spark a coronavirus explosion. Even worse than holiday gatherings. Good, saturday morning. Happy to be with you. Im lindsey reiser. And im kendis gibson. We have a big hour ahead for you. We have a team of correspondents and a
Pandemic. The Biden Administration is deploying 1,110 active duty service members, including teams from army, air force, navy, and marines to support five fema covid19 Vaccination Centers across the country. The first team set to arrive in california in ten days. The Biden White House also says it will soon utilize Defense Production Act in several ways to procure equipment and supplies for pfizer to make additional vaccine, to tap Six Companies to make 61 million at home covid19 tests by end of summer, and built factories to produce Raw Materials needed for nitrile surgical gloves. A billion pairs a month. All of that means jobs. All of that should have been done a year ago. The Biden Administration also isnt ruling out using Defense Production Act to aid in production of Johnson Johnsons one shot vaccine which is currently awaiting Emergency Use Authorization from the fda. That should come any day now. The federal government is set to ship 10. 5 million vaccine doses a week for the n
Good day from msnbc World Headquarters in new york. Welcome, everyone, to weekends with alex witt. Developing this hour, President Bidens 1. 9 trillion plan is one step closer to becoming a reality. In a new excerpt from cbs news, the president giving a new insight into where key provisions like Minimum Wage Hike Stand as lawmakers work to get the bill to his desk. Its somewhere between an individual making up to 75 and phasing out and a couple making up to 150 and phasing out. But im wide open on what that is. You also want to raise the minimum wage to 15. Is that something you would be willing to negotiate on to get republican support . Apparently thats not going to occur because of the roles in the senate. Youre saying it will not be in it . My guess is it will not be in it. Today marks one month since the attack on the u. S. Capitol left five people dead. The Impeachment Trial will start just days from now. Trumps defense team confirming he will not testify under oath. Congressman
Nearly 3 billion lawsuit in which he plays a starring role. Others at fox news do as well. And then a Battle Of The Ages and for the ages, of course, tom brady versus Patrick Mahomes in the super bowl tomorrow, coming up later this hour, were going to talk about that as well. I want to start, though, with nbcs mike memoli traveling with the president in wilmington, delaware, and nbcs ali vitali on capitol hill. Thanks for joining us on this. Mike, i want to start with you on this one and the president s worry, shall we say, about the former President Trump. This is the first time that you had a former president who essentially is going to be barred from Intelligence Briefings, right . Reporter well, yasmin, thats right. This would be the case if thats the final decision thats made by the white house but you know what . This is par for the course because the last time i was speaking to you from here in wilmington, it was during the president ial transition and what was one of the storyl
