Charge of the recovery act and it was hard as hell to get the votes for it to begin with. And then it was hard as hell to get the number even we got. But one thing we learned, is we cant do too much here. We could do too little. We could do too little and sputter. Real live people are hurting and we could fix it. And we could fix it. That is has been his message from the beginning. And President Biden is focused on this today. Hes expecting to speak live later this hour and on how ep plans to revised the economy in response to covid. And the latest jobs report came out this morning showing only 49,000 jobs were added last month across country. And still there is more. On capitol hill, republican freshman Marjorie Taylor greene, shes about to hold a News Conference and at the moment im going to use the term News Conference loosely as we will see if she actually takes questions from actual real reporters which she has long avoided. Greene now without any Committee Assignments after the h
Now its time for The Last Word with lawrence odonnell. Good evening, lawrence. Good evening, rachel. So im wondering is this more or less homework for you . Because back when you couldnt get the cdc director you would still have to do stories about it, and youd have to try to figure out certain things that were not easily apparent. Tonight you could actually go into that interview not knowing the answers to the questions because youre going to get actual answer tuesday the questions. Well, the thing that i mean the thing that changes that you dont have to anticipate what the interviewee is going to say, what they think or what was their motivation because you can ask them directly. But you still need to know about the issues and you know how to follow up and press them on it. It is just being able to interview dr. Fauci and dr. Wolensky and, you know, youve been talking to the white house Chief Of Staff ron klain, and andy slavitt has been on chris show. Being able to talk to the peopl
Leadership position because of her recent vote to impeach donald trump. The Secret Ballot vote 14561. The full house will vote tomorrow under the control of the democrats, remember, On Whether To Kick Greene off her committees budget and education. Greenes past comments include but arent limited to her view that School Shootings were staged, clintons murdered john f. Kennedy jr. , theres no evidence that plane hit the Pentagon On 9 11. Goes on into violence against democrats and rabid antisemitism. Marjorie Taylor Greene is totally out of control. Why would Kevin Mccarthy continue to associate himself and republican conference with someone who leader Mitch Mcconnell has characterized as a cancer. P last time i checked, cancers need to be cut out and not allowed to metastasize. Republican Leader Mccarthy issued a statement after his meeting with greene this evening condemning her past statements, and went on to accuse the democrats of course of fuelling the controversy by scheduling the
The issues and you know how to follow up and press them on it. But it is just being able to interview dr. Fauci and dr. Wolensky and, you know, youve been talking to the white house Chief Of Staff ron klain, and andy slavitt has been on chris show. Being able to talk to the people who are making decisions about the decisions theyre making particularly when the decisions are causing consternation like this issue of teachers not having to be vaccinated before schools reopen. Its just Night And Day in terms of actually understanding the governments take and being able to press them where they need to be pressed. I think everyone knows that it was a trick question. That, of course, theres no way rachel is going to find a way to do less homework for her show. Thats just not gonna happen. Work is a force that gives life meaning. Thats true. Thats true. For you, for you. Thank you, rachel. Thank you, lawrence. Thank you. Well, our first guest tonight was in the room today when the president a
That was so controversial they forced a secret vote on whether to keep her in power, a vote cheney ultimately won by a lot. Meanwhile congresswoman greene who built her public reputation as a supporter of anti semitic Conspiracy Theories and straight up Political Violence she got the opposite treatment. Republicans publicly rallying around her after she reportedly apologized for some of her past statements. Democrats are not so forgiving. They are going to force a vote on the House Floor Today that could strip greene of her committee assignments. I want to start with Garrett Haake on capitol hill. What are we going to see with this vote today . Reporter some of that will depend on how congresswoman greene chooses to handle herself going forward. Ill be curious to see if the apology she made Behind Closed Doors to republicans is the kind of thing she might repeat on the house floor in public. We do expect this vote to go forward this afternoon stripping her of committee assignments. Dem
