1921 massacre, when a white mob destroyed the black neighborhood of greenwood. This, as the white house plans to reveal plans to narrow the racial wage gap. And we ll talk to sharice davids about that. Plus, texas governor greg abbott threatens consequences. We ll also bring you the latest from israel, where the leaders of two opposition parties say they re working together to potentially unseat prime minister benjamin netanyahu. And president biden s administration will attempt to rectify racial injustice in the housing market through a new plan the white house is rolling out today. We have a lot to cover on multiple fronts. We start with yamiche alcindor and also garrett hake on capitol hill. Let s start with the multiple efforts by the white house, what does the plan entail and what does it not? the president is going to be going to tulsa to talk about racial injustice, and he announced new initiatives, trying to focus on create an opening for more ownership and small businesses, an
All about joe biden essentially making his kind of debut as president on the world stage and kind of renewing america s vows towards multilateralism, international institutions and really what they would call the liberal world order, the one that has essentially ensured a lot of global peace since world war ii. That is what joe biden is here to do. He s trying to say diplomacy is back and america is back with a new role in the world. Now a lot of this is surrounded by awkward photo opportunities, meetings with the queen who s made her own couple of jokes and tonight there s going to be marshmallows and hot rum, steak and lobster on the beach. So you might be able to see some really important global leaders snacking, chatting with each other, maybe walking around barefoot. So it should be quite a nice one to see and then, like you said, president biden is going to be taking off for london to meet and sip tea with the queen. Joshua? well, matt, actually, i m jason. Joshua is the other gu
For president obama it was a gimme, right? like i said, distinguished record nothing against him. The ideal candidate for the job and utterly non controversial. They held his confirmation hearing after president obama nominated him and the confirmation hearing went great. He sailed through, no objections. The judiciary committee decided on julian neals nomination by a voice vote. They didn t even bother taking a roll call vote. They just it all in favor, i, no objections. Passing through and the senate then he can become a federal judge. That was in november 2015. Zero controversy about him. He passes the committee without any objections which sets up what it is expected to be under normal circumstances a non controversial vote to confirm him into the court. But that never happens. The committee has this hearing in passes him through on a voice vote with no objections, november 2015 but there is no floor vote. And then december 2015 comes around, nothing happens. No floor vote. We roll
Confront a dangerous adversary but there s a new uncertain phase why a little today biden broke offer talks with republican west virginia senator capito for a bipartisan infrastructure and jobs bill after weeks of talks and the west virginia senator says the sticking point was taxes. The last offer that i got from the president had four tax increases in it. We were in it to win it for the men people and miss a real opportunity for at least 20 republicans to join with the democrats to pass the most robust infrastructure package that we could have. Late today the white house issued a statement that noted biden told senator capito the latest offer did not meet the essential needs of the country. The white house said joe biden is talking to a group in the senate, sinema, manchin, cassidy of louisiana and that he plans to be in touch with them by phone in europe. Statement also says biden told chuck schumer to get ready to bring some economic plans to the floor for possible votes in july. W
Thinking about this. You are thinking, this one was so obvious it will not look like i am taking any credit at all for staying with everybody else saw including 99% of the rachel matter show audience. Yes. That s exactly right. Well, what i said was i could ve told you that and so could have anybody else watching or something like that but even phrasing it in that way actually said a line of hives up my spine which i now have to go home and have to cope with in terms of me having said i told you so. But here we are. And it is where we thought we were gonna be which is okay. Nothing from the kind of intent to compromise with republicans, now there s discussion going on with ad hoc group of senators, democrats, and republicans. President biden negotiating directly with them. Calling up some of them directly and so now we re at the second stage of an attempt at some form of bipartisan and then the third stage if we get to it is some way of doing it with democrats only and joe manchin says
