The latest want. Good evening, peter. Peter: good evening, bret. All six branches of the military are constantly training and conducting exercises to make sure they can be ready for anything. But the commanderinchief has decided if they really want to be ready, then all 1. 3 million service members must get the covid19 vaccine by mid september. You can consider this memo today as what we would call in the military a warning order a warning order to the force that this is coming. Peter: president biden explained, quote: being vaccinated will enable our service members to stay healthy to better protect their families and to ensure that our force is ready to operate anywhere in the world. Next up, teachers could be required to get the shot and they won t be told to do it by lawmakers but rather teachers union leaders. As a matter of personal conscience, i think we need to be working with our employers, not opposing them on vaccine mandates. Many more could be on the way. Once official app
the last 24 hours, as you know, the senator buffered his own party and killed the build back better act. manchin said he was at wit s end with negotiations and something specific pushed him over the edge. listen. we know the real reason what happened. they won t tell you and i m not going to. we ll find out more about that, and we ll get to new reporting from our sources saying manchin is a no partly because of concerns that parents might use the child tax credit to buy drugs or use paid family leave time to go hunting. we ll have his office s response to that as we go live to the white house and capitol hill. we ll also hear from the progressive caucus who insists that build back better will be back. i m hallie jackson as we juggle all of this this afternoon. we re also joined by marietta mayor and congressional reporter for the washington post. mike, let me start with you. we thought we were going to see jen psaki about an hour ago. these things happen, i get it, but

democrats left tying to piece together next steps. this is one of the problems that we have now, not just with senator manchin, but senator sinema. we need every democratic vote. we re not going to get one republican vote. our individual citizens will suffer a generation or two down the road and the economy will, as well. so, it s a shame that we would have to strike the policy initiative out of this package, but we have to get 50 votes. a massive strike that could have shut down much of hollywood s tv and film production avoided of crew workers reach a tentative deal with studio execs and their new contracts include some major perks. but will all union members actually still go for the deal. we ll ask that question in a live report, as we do say good morning, everybody. it is sunday, october 17th. i m kendis gibson. where did this month and year go by? it s not over yet. feels like it. i know. i m lindsey reiser. so good to be with you on this sunday. and we have a
