Welldone my friend. Thank you, rachel. Well, it really is infrastructure week. And President Joe Biden got to say the words today he has been wanting to say since inauguration day, we have a deal. And he was so excited about the deal that he did something that president s just about never do. He went out into the driveway. On the Pennsylvania Avenueside of the white house with a Bipartisan Group of senators to announce the deal they just made. We have a deal. And i think its really important weve all agreed that none of us got what we wanted, i clearly didnt get all you wanted. They gave more than i think maybe they were inclined to give in the first place. But this remind mez of the days we used to get an awful lot done in the United States congress. They did not and i understand their position republica

one hour from now, president biden is again going to host the top four members of congress and for potential june default date, and no closer to the deal to have catastrophic outcome, and speaker mccarthy is going to tie the debt ceiling to spending cuts and work requirements and biden is going to call for the debt creeling to be dealing with the condition, and if you are going with what the two sides are saying for the two hours, the forecast gloomy, and arlette seanez is at the white house. at some point, someone has to give up something, and can we find out what the potential concessions are today? well, brianna, in about an hour, we should get a glimpse of where the concessions are headed as the white house is going to be hosting kevin mccarthy and other congressional leader here at the white house. heading into the meeting, the expectations are low that they will come out with a concrete agreement with a default. and you heard house speaker kevin mccarthy who said toda
