Reelected. Ill get reaction from quintin folk, president for the Biden Harris Campaign. And Steve Phillips standard of democracy. And inside the fight to enshrine abortion laws. And breaking with the boss. Former Vice President mike pence on january 6th and his decision not to endorse donald trump.
