That was 2002 so people are incredibly excited right now and they know they are going to get to see history happen this weekend. Okay, got to go, that is a wrap for me on this edition of Alex Witt reports, up next, The Beat weekend. Welcome to The Beat weekend, lets get right into the headlines. Most people think you dont want a rookie piloting your plane, voters, and we can show this across history, generally prefer people with some Governing Experience for the job of running the entire government, which makes sense. And that is why it is pretty common to attack a candidate going after their experience and qualifications. So, here is our Special Report about something that really matters and you might hear about in the debate next week and over the next two months. President biden spent his life in government, just so everybody knows that. When democrats began eyeing harris as his replacement, republicans rushed to question her competence.

Candidate is 66 effective yet 85 effective against severe covid disease, that is lower in terms of efficacy than pfizer and moderna. Both were authorized at por than 95 effective but dr.
