Hours. Lets begin our coverage with our jeremy diamond. He joins us at the white house. Good morning, jeremy. Do you have a sense of i mean, they cant control what the reporters ask, but do you have a sense of what the administration wants to convey in this Press Conference . Well, and thats the critical decision there, poppy. What the administration wants to convey here, what the president wants to focus on during this News Conference, and then there are the topics that the president is going to face questions on during this first News Conference of his presidency. Look, President Biden is going to come out today and wants to talk about what hes accomplished in his first 64 days in office. Getting vaccinations to a pace of about 2 1 2 million vaccines per day. Crossing that 100 million vaccines goal within 60 days in office, rather than the 100 days that he had first laid out. The 1. 9 trillion Coronavirus Relief bill, which he signed into law in recent weeks and the checks that have
A accomplish a Police Officer, musician, actress, grandfather. We know people are grieving. Theyre asking questions. We dont know if lawmakers will give them any answers. Theres new information about the suspect. Hes charged with ten counts of fi firstdegree murder. The weapon was purchased just days ago. This morning the white house flag is at halfstaff again it. Was lowered last week after atlantas Mass Shooting at day spas, President Biden calling for an end to the carnage starting with expanded Background Check and a ban on Assault Weapons. That might be too much to ask. We begin with boulder. The suspect, 21yearold Al Aliwi Alissa was armed with two weapons. According to his broerks he s suffered from mental illness, and thats a recipe for disaster. We dont know if theres a shooter, active shooter somewhere. Reporter witnesses say they first heard shots around 2 00 p. M. Monday. We could see the entire front of the store from our living room window. I initially heard ten gunshots.
Took office. The economy. The most important issue to everyday americans, was already struggling back in january, by overzealous politicians, their stay at home orders which they refused to obey themselves. And now things arent much better. In fact, you could say theyre getting a lot worse. But why . Because joe biden is asleep at the wheel. His cabinet is tearing down President Trumps most popular policies. Letting the radical progressives rewrite history, or at least try, with their own pet projects and personal agendas. We all knew the Biden Administration was going to be bad, but none of us even imagined just how bad they would be and how far left they would go. The Biden Administration has proven that they are antijobs, antifamilies, antiborders, antienergy, antiwomen and antiscience. Case in point, instead of expanding energy jobs, biden is killing them off by the thousands. His Cabinet Members are telling oil workers to build solar panels or dig up land mines. None of this is he

Plus, news that andrew cuomo will face a Sexual Harassment investigation by the new York Attorney general and how joe biden made history with a twominute speech to Amazon Workers in alabama. All in starts right now. Good evening from new york. Im chris hayes. We are almost a year into this pandemic, and we are experiencing something strange. Vertigo inducing, almost incomprehensible kind of inversion of where we were a year ago. A year ago, you remember, we had political leaders denying covid was a problem. Public health officials, journalists and people like myself warning and increasingly, well, thrill in urgent terms that things were about to get very, very bad until people saw others getting sick firsthand, hard to believe how bad they could get as quickly as they did. Particularly when you had messaging like this. While the risk to the American Public remains low, as the president said yesterday, were ready. Were ready for anything. We have contained this.
