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.

Is it enough that its just looks bad, but theres an appearance of a conflict or did they need to prove to the defendants at trump and his codefendants need to prove that there was an actual conflict now, again, i say that day fani willis can stay on this case.
