i can t stand. is that okay, tony? can i sit? [gunfire] is. jesse: no one ever wants to meet a mobster. some people would feel safer in prison than out on the street people like bernie madoff no relation to. lost $65 billion of other people s money in a ponzi scheme. it wasn t just joe schmo s money that bernie stole. a new netflix documentary says bernie madoff was taking millions of dollars in from criminals. federal reserve drug cartels tr. and when they all came knocking on bernie s door to have it back, he didn t have it. instead of paying up, the documentary says madoff pled guilty to 150 year prison sentence so he wouldn t get whacked. madoff just confessed said i did it said send me away. if madoff for years was able to get away with taking in mob money, drug money right under the nose of the feds, just imagine what s going on in crypto. the currency notorious with mobsters, sex traffickers and hackers. warren buffett s right-hand man calls it rat poison. dignity
sandra: kristin fisher has more. president biden will be delivering his first prime time address hours after signing his biggest first legislative accomplishment in to law. this american rescue plan 1.9 trillion. now, remember, this was supposed to be a bipartisan package. in the end, it had zero republican support. now the white house is proudly calling this the most progressive bill in american history. that is not sitting well with republican senator john kennedy. listen here from this morning. we tried with president biden. he said look, i ll meet you halfway. we said okay. well then he just ignored us. if he was meeting us halfway, he s a damn poor judge of distance. in terms of what to expect tonight, the white house says the president will mark the one-year anniversary of the country shutting down due to the coronavirus pandemic. he will be talking about the sacrifices that the american people have made over the last year and what they have to look forward to
