are we expected to hear from joe biden well for the 1st time the u.s. president is expected to officially recognize the armenian genocide now this would mark a major shift in u.s. diplomatic policy because up until now u.s. leaders have instead referred to those events of over a century ago as a great evil but on friday president biden held a phone call with president of turkey now reuters news agency is reporting that during the cold biden told of on that he will in fact be making an announcement to officially recognize the armenian genocide we'll find out in a matter of hours if he does and if he follows through on that it would also mark the fulfillment of a campaign promise made by bought into canada on the trip campaign trail as the one year ago but this is a highly contentious issue right turkey categorically rejects the turn genocide what could this do to us or can relations. well you get an idea of that back in 2019 when the u.s. congress although not the president passed the resolution to recognize the armenian genocide and that triggered a dip

president joe biden is starting a commission on expanding the supreme court. this comes as the push to add more seats to balance out the conservative majority and the rulings they could have on americans. joining me is jeffrey rosen president of the national constitution center and law professor at g.w. law school. thank you very much for being with us. who has the president recruited to be a part of this commission and what is he hoping to accomplish over the next 180 days. >> it is chaired by bob bauer and christina rodriguez from the yale law school and the purpose according to the white house is to analyze all of the arguments for and against the supreme court reform and to issue a report in six months so they have 180 days. they can take comments from the public and after six months they're supposed to come up with a summary and make recommendations to the president. >> the white house describes it as a bipartisan group of experts and how do we know that they're impartial and have the perception of that to the american public? >> well, it is a balanced gr

>> when it comes to gun reform and gun safety, lindsay, this is something candidate joe biden pledged to do on his first day in office and that is not what happened after he was elected because the coronavirus pandemic worsened so intensely over those last few months before he took office, of course, and so instead in the midst of the first 100 days, this was something that he wanted to propose as common sense gun control in his own words, but it was in the wake of those mass shootings in colorado, georgia, and california that the biden white house felt more urgency to act and this is what the president himself concedes is not an issue that will be solved overnight and that is why he has asked his justice department and his attorney general to take a look at rules that would help to eliminate what's known as ghost guns. these are weapons that don't have serial numbers. they're untraceable and they're very concerned about the prolive ragsz of those and they're also asking the doj to take a look at putting forth other model language on things like ret flag laws and it those who are seek

number one, you know, lbj, like joe biden, was a creature of washington. there is no president who has more political experience upon taking office than joe biden. lbj was pretty close. lbj was in the house and the senate for a collective 24 years, but they both understand the power of government to essentially effect sweeping social change. lbj seized the presidency when he had it to put forth the laws of the great society, which essentially builds a foundation for modern america, including, importantly, getting forth civil rights. there are certainly differences between the two men, but i think joe biden has a boldness of vision in the same manner that lbj did about what government can do to bring america into the future and resolve some of the social ills that hold us back. >> you know, mark, vision is one thing. accomplishment's another, and a lot of biden's impact, mark, is going to depend on how much he actually can get done in his tenure. that's going to require pushing through legislation. we have a divided congress. and in his first press conferen

. ♪♪ ♪♪ >>> president joe biden is renewing calls for gun reform following the mass shooting at a fedex facility in indianapolis that left eight people dead. nbc's monica alba is joining us from wilmington, delaware. how is the president responding to this latest mass shooting? >> well, he's defending his position quite intensely, alex, saying there's only so much i can do, urging congress to act. he wants lawmakers to consider these bills on gun safety that have passed the house, but are currently stalled in the senate, and he also outlined some of the executive action that he took just a couple of weeks ago saying he has tasked his department of justice and his attorney general with trying to do more and they're currently in the midst of reviewing these rules and regulations on ghost guns, for example, but you really heard the president here quite impassioned and quite outraged at what we've seen from the string of latest mass shootings in the country when he did speak in the rose garden yesterday. take a listen. >> immediately upon us becoming an office having an attorney general i a

that's what joe biden said he was going to do to more than 62,000. and now he's saying that's not going to be possible in the short term. we got a sense from the national security adviser, jake sullivan, who was on the sunday shows this morning really trying to defend the administration's bungled rollout of this policy by trying to push back on the criticism that this was a reversal. take a listen. >> the president wanted to go with this in two steps. the first step was to change the allocation so people in africa could literally get on planes this week. and the second would be to raise the cap as we were fixing the system in its processing. he took the first step this past week. he will take the second step in the weeks ahead. and i think there was some misunderstanding on friday about the import of his decision friday morning, which was focused on the allocation, not on the cap. >> so the white house is arguing because the process is ongoing, there is still time essentially for the president to make this right, but a lot of democrats and groups hav

would there ever be real trust between joe biden and vladimir putin? and when it comes to holding vladimir putin accountable if navalny dies, it would seem that accountable has eluded vladimir putin in the past. is there anything that conceivably could be done to vladimir putin to hold him accountable in the world's eyes if alexei navalny dies? >> it's hard to see what that would be, that at least the united states would be willing to do. america, under presidents obama and trump, have from time to time imposed sanctions or expelled diplomats but have held back from pulling the trigger on truly punitive economic actions that would genuinely get his attention. they have not done things to expose his sources of his own personal wealth, something people talked about doing but not really followed up on. there's a lot of things america has not done in the interests of not escalating, as president biden put it. the question is how far can you go to get his attention without escalating it into a conflict you don't want. can you find ways to work with russia?

biden and the senate race won by democrat mark kelly. election officials have found no evidence whatsoever of widespread voter fraud. >>> and breaking news out of washington, d.c., president biden today became the first u.s. president to formally acknowledge the killing of more than a million armenians. >>> breaking right now in a historic statement, the president has officially recognized that genocide. let's go to monica alba in washington, d.c. monica, welcome. let's talk about what the president's saying about this today and the significance of it. it's a big deal. >> reporter: absolutely, alex, and that's really because every u.s. leader before him had failed to get to this level. many had acknowledged the violence, the deaths of more than 1 million armenians killed more than a century ago in what is now modern day turkey, but they hadn't gone so far as to label it a genocide over a diplomatic fear and concern, potentially, of angering turkey, that partner in the region and of course within nato. but president biden made good on a c

biden and the senate race won by mark kelly. election officials have found no evidence of widespread voter fraud. the accountability project led by kevin mccarthy and his failed bid to censure maxine waters. >> kevin mccarthy is worried about extreme rhetoric from democrats, but where was he when members of his party said -- >> today they have to start kicking ass. >> you can't allow it to just transfer power peacefully and allow joe biden to become our president. >> this is our alamo. >> more bad behavior is what we need. >> joining me now is michelle richy with the policy and communications committee and elizabeth newman for the accountability project who put out that ad and former department of homeland security official. >> what do you make of his attempt to censure congresswoman waters and what do they have to stand on when it comes to inciting violence especially after january 6th? >> yeah, i thought that ad was perfect, elizabeth. so good job on that. i thought it was absolutely phenomenal and shows hypocrisy. mccarthy do

you know joe biden. is this the same joe biden that you knew back in the obama administration? >> yeah, absolutely, alex. i mean, i think the decision that he made recently on afghanistan, again, echoed a lot of what i heard sitting in meetings in the situation room in late 2009 around that issue. i think in many ways he's very much the same person that i knew back then. i will say i think that if you look at some of what is happening around infrastructure and climate change, i think it's also a president that realizes that a lot of these problems have lingered far too long, and they're not going to get better if we keep kicking the can down the road. and i think you've seen really bold infrastructure plans, big plans around cutting emissions that contribute to climate change because he understands, quite frankly, we don't have four or six or eight years to waste on this topic. so, i think both he's steady in what he's believed, and i think as the vice president said, he's using that experience, but i also think he understands the moment in time that he sits in that oval office

stood out to me, percentage of republicans say they disapprove of joe biden's presidency so far. a lot higher than the percentage of democrat whose said it for president donald trump and republican whose said it about former president obama. that tells you a lot where our country is at this particular moment. and the challenge that president joe biden faces in the next 100 days of his presidency where arguably he'll have to face some of these other challenges on issues like immigration, on guns, i'm sure we'll get to in a minute. >> a very united country for sure. ununited country. michael, from a historical perspective, give me a sense how important the first 100 days are as a measure and how does president biden stack up in your mind? >> well, it's not a bad measure, alex. i thought francesca said it well. you know, the thing is that this all comes from early 1933 as you know when franklin roosevelt came in and did a lot of things like, you know, saving the banks and getting people relief and doing things to relieve the suffering of the great depression, and about 100 days in,

joe biden has a majority of support of the american people. he's over 50%, ten points higher than donald trump, but lower historically than his democratic predecessors at this point. two things jump out to me as questions. one, is this just the new normal we live in, the partisan divide, where we're never going to return to seeing 60% numbers for a president in 100 days? that might be the case. the second, though, is the poll that shows over 40% think that joe biden is too liberal and in fact more liberal than barack obama and bill clinton. if that didn't already exist, certainly the right wing news media and republicans are going to make that exist. but that's an interesting thing for the biden administration to keep an eye on, whether he's going to be branded as kind of the bipartisan unifier or if his opponents will successfully brand him as a liberal. >> you make a good point there. relative to the president's infrastructure plan, you've got 59% saying it's a good idea, 21% disagree, 19% don't have an opinion. susan, we saw this with covid

that's something president joe biden called a mistake. here in philadelphia, it's a little different story. there's about 20% capacity right now. that's about 8,800 people in the stands right now. when fans come into the stadium, it's a very different experience than the last time they were at a baseball game. in terms of seating, it's all pod seating. there's at least three or four feet between any family or group of people sitting in the stands. that's why that 20% capacity is important. there's also mobile food ordering and mobile ticketing. it's a cashless building right here, no cash transactions at all, whether it's food, retail. that doesn't matter to the fans. fans just want to be here for the game. they were incredibly excited as i talked to them walking in. here's what some of them had to say. >> it's amazing. it's amazing. i've been waiting for this and waiting for this. i'm so happy to be here. >> it was weird seeing the cutouts in stands rather than the fans booing the other team or heckling rivals. it's better to have everyo

>> well, president joe biden, as much as he said that he wants republican support, he wants bipartisan support, and, of course, his own cabinet members are fanning across the country to try to pitch this on tv and to the american citizens that this is an important bill and important step for the american people, they are hoping that infrastructure, which is popular among the american people, and the economy that is continuing to grow after we have been struggling with the covid economy, but that will help push things over the edge for them. as secretary buttigieg said, they are hoping for republican support. they are -- the administration is -- they seem aware that they have the wind at their back with the economy improving and just with the popularity of fixing roads, fixing bridges, things like that. >> infrastructure is very popular. the fact is that there has been competing messages on this. if you look at the recent poll, it shows the majority of americans support many details of the bill. 45% support president biden's proposal. you have 27% against it. you have 28% who don't real

it might look very different from what president joe biden has been putting forward. >> they may need to adjust it indeed to try to get it passed. thank you very much, amanda golden. >>> joining me now, chief white house correspondent for "the new york times," peter baker. good to see you, my friend. do you think negotiations with republicans could be successful? we know the president plans no invite them to the white house for discussion. will democrats be forced to pass it through reconciliation like they did with the american rescue plan? >> yeah, look, i think they're going to make a show of reaching out to republicans to at least make it look like they do that. i don't think there's much hope that it will go anywhere. i don't think they'll invest a huge amount of energy into it beyond the courtesies. i think they're intent on passing a bill that is almost certainly going to be too large for republicans to swallow. you heard senator blunt, as you just played, saying this is an infrastructure bill. he suggests if you only did 30% of that bill, republicans might jump on board. i don

president joe biden hailed the decision as an important step toward police reform it was a murder in full light of day and to rip the blinders off for the whole world to see. the systemic racism vice president just referred to their system equations is day one our nation's soul but it's not enough we can't stop here. in order to live or real change or reform we kid and we must do more to reduce the likelihood of tragedy like this will ever happen kurgan. show been handcuffed and led away will be sentenced 8 weeks from now he could be facing decades in prison. well i want to bring in now gloria j. brown marshall she is a professor of constitutional law at john jay college in new york city her most recent book on civil rights and wall is entitled she took just as the black woman wall and power it's good to have you with us again on the day i want to start by asking you what was your reaction when you heard the sentencing for the verdict for derek shogun and was justice served yesterday earth yes justice with her then i was so anxious and nervous and i was sweating actually and i knew t

president joe biden has pledged to cut u.s. carbon emissions in hostile $20.00 to $30.00 it's the most ambitious climate target the u.s. has ever 6 biden and now it's the goal at a 2 day search will climate change summit at the white house 40 countries are taking part china and russia have also pledged to cooperate on climate protections but did not 6 announce specific emissions targets for more i'm joined by clarify suggest a climate policy analyst at climate analytics here in berlin clare thanks for joining us how much of a game changer is biden's pledge rights and i think this is a really important game changer and as you said it's the most ambitious climate target the u.s. has ever come forward with to half their emissions by 2030 from 2005 levels and if we look at the global level what needs to be done to achieve the 1.5 limit set in the paris agreement we have a currently missing a gap between where we need to be where the heading and the new target by the u.s. reduces this gap by about 5 to 10 percent so it's a really im

and that president joe biden called it jim crow in the 21st century. just a few days ago delta airlines, one of the largest companies based in georgia put out a ridiculously mealy-mouthed statement where they dplauszed over the restricting parts of the new law while lording other parts of the bill. quote, the legislation signed this week improved considerably during the legislative process coca-cola also issued a cox s statement that did not outright condemn the legislation. but the backlash to the new law was so severe delta's ceo today released a statement saying and i quote i need to make it crystal clear the final bill is unacceptable and doesn't match delta's values after having timed that with all in the bill coupled with discussions and leaders in the black community it's evident the bill includes provisions that will make it harder for underrepresented voters particularly black voters to exercise their constitutional right to elect their representatives. the entire rationale for this bill was based on a law, there was widespread fraud in 2020 e

you heard joe biden explain, he's a union guy. and this plan reflects the reality that we need to invest in good jobs. and as we make federal investments, we need to make sure that they're connected to requirements that we're improving job quality, giving people an opportunity to join a union. you know, you mentioned the cabinet meeting at the top. one of the things we talked about in the cabinet meeting today was the issue of buy american. as we make these significant investments in america, we have to make sure that these investments are tied to u.s. production and u.s. jobs. it's not easy, but i think the way you do it, the way you bring everything along is you show that these investments can actually have benefits to our communities as they are going right at the existential threat of climate change, and i think you have seen from the uaw to the ibew and others, there's energy around the prospects of making this kind of historic investment in building things and rebuilding things here in america again. >> i hope so. i truly ho

so i don't know that joe biden is going to be dissuaded. he has been of this opinion for a long time. >> one to ten, how sure are you it's going to happen? >> well, ten. >> well, there is a certain lucy and the football quality here. i'm 42 years old. i watched it for 20 years. i reported on it for however long. probably 16, 17 years i reported on afghanistan and possible withdraw from afghanistan, and is the government, yada yada. i feel i will believe it when i see it. you are close enough to the administration to have a finger on the pulse. you see it as something that is happening, that means something. >> well, i think it's happening because this president is committed to the policy in a personal way. but also, because he faces an array of threats that require reorientation. just this weekend, we have seen rattling from the chinese and around taiwan. we have russian forces on the border of the ukraine. we obviously have a number of new security threats in african and the middle east. right now, we need to put our focus, our money, our

>> i think that this is no surprise who have watched joe biden over the years open reporting tells us that during the obama administration, then vice president biden was arguing for a more american forces because as a senator, joe biden had watched very closely and he knew that general after general had we needed just one more year, two more years in the afghan military were so close to being able to take over and control things on their own and of course that never came to fruition. in fact, the taliban use the american presidents there as recruiting falter and our presence there in fact was elongating the conflicts, not bringing it to a more precipitous close so i don't know that joe biden is going to be dissuaded. i think he's been of this opinion for a long time. that he needed to bring this to an end. >> 1 to 10, how sure are you that this is going to happen? >> ten. again, i just -- >> know, there's a certain loose in the football of quality here. i'm 42 years old and i've done this for 20 years. we've reported on it for however long, for like 16 or 17 years and possible withdra

why are joe biden and kamala harris still wearing their silly, little obedience masks everywhere they go? they've been vaccinated. so is everyone around them. so, why the masks? why the restrictions? what exactly is going on here? we know it's not science. we know that, for certain. >> if vaccines work. why are vaccinated people still banned from living normal lives? maybe, it doesn't work and they are simply not telling you that. >> yeah. why? why all this -- why? why? i'm just asking questions. why am i always asking questions. i don't know. i'm just asking questions. okay? all of that has been flowing over the airways, into millions of american homes. the head of fox news' parent company, lockland murdock, he moved his family to australia. now, let's be clear, here. that makes a certain amount of sense. of course, his father grew up there, started his career there. and lord knows, i don't begrudge anyone moving their family anywhere. but it is notable because australia is a place that basically does not have the coronavirus. which would be a nice thing to experience. but, you know,

we see that joe biden is enjoying popularity in numbers like we have not seen in a very, very long time. we've seen that the numbers of people who are identifying with the democratic party is at an all-time high. and that is because the american people are waking up. you know, the republicans love to talk about people being woke. well, ding, ding, ding, the american people are waking up, and they see that the emperor does not have on any clothes. they see that this is a party that only cares about its own political power and its own political relevance and not about the people and the things that they're dealing with on a day-to-day basis. so what we are going to do as democrats is to continue to make sure that we're addressing their needs. the aarp, put money in pockets, people in jobs, vaccines in arms, kids in schools. the jobs plan will rebuild the infrastructure of this country. so we'll do those things and deliver on the promises we made to the american people. at the same time at the dnc, we're going to recruit candidates to run against all of these knuckle heads on the other sid

. >> today is april 19th, the day president joe biden announced all u.s. adults are eligible to get their coronavirus vaccine. hopefully that will make it easier for the remaining half of american adults to get their shots. then we can start devoting our national resources to vaccinating the entire world as quickly as possible. and we welcome dr. peter hotez, dean of the national school of tropical medicine at baylor university. dr. hotez, great to have you. i was looking at the numbers, and everyone saw this coming. the biden administration, public health experts, you're going to hit a point where supply is not the constraint. for the first few weeks and months, people are desperately trying to get appointments. now, that's not an issue. now it's getting people to do it. is that where we are right now? >> just about. i mean, remember where we have to go, chris. we have to, based on the high transmissibility of these new variants, the b.1.1.7 variant from the united kingdom. the 1.4.2.9 out of california, we have to vaccinate or else transmission goes up.

and despair, vote for sleepy joe biden. and boredom, you know the great thing, i always say someday these people -- look at all those -- look at all those cameras. you know what i say? someday they're going to get smart. they're going to endorse president trump because if you have sleepy joe, nobody's going to be interested in politics anymore. that's going to be the end of that. >> during his re-election campaign, donald trump repeatedly tried to paint joe biden as the boring option, but that sounded pretty good to a lot of americans who voted to elect biden by a margin of over 7 million votes. you know what? boring really isn't that bad. here we are in just the 73rd day of joe biden's presidency, and even though covid cases are, again, spiking in states across the country, this time there's a plan. biden has communicated the importance of waiting to reopen the country and the need to keep wearing masks, and today we saw a record number of vaccinations, nearly 4 million. there have been 20 million shots administered in the

early this evening, president joe biden and vice president kamala harris addressed the nation calling for americans to continue the work and movement sparked by floyd's death. >> today we feel a sigh of relief. still, it cannot take away the pain. a measure of justice isn't the same as equal justice. this verdict brings us a step closer. and the fact is we still have work to do. we still must reform the system. >> i can't breathe. those are george floyd's last words. we can't let those words die with him. we have to keep hearing those words. we must not turn away. we can't turn away. we have a chance to begin to change the trajectory in this country. it's my hope and prayer that we live up to the legacy. >> whatever bit of relief or solace comes from this verdict, it is inescapably the case that it is not the end of this story. george floyd is still not with us. he should be alive today, and that will never be changed. that is always true in our criminal justice system. no trial can bring anyone back ever. this one cannot. george floyd's family will live with the grief and the ripple

and not just in states that joe biden won. obviously that, is ground zero for the effort. places like georgia, arizona, michigan this is where they're most desperate to enact the restrictions on voting. they're pushing them in states like florida and states he won comfortably like montana, and iowa. they're all marching off the same playbook. the laws they're passing to restrict voting rights are similar across the country. for example, georgia passed a bill that criminalized giving food and water to people in line. that is a controversial provision. well, similar bills have now been introduced in florida and in arkansas. criminalizing election administration. that is happening not just in georgia but in iowa in, florida, in other states, in texas. and so really, not just -- they're not just trying to make it harder to vote in all the states. they're trying to make it hard to vote in all the same ways in state after state after state. >> there is an ohio story i saw today about the -- that they have judicial elections that democrats have done pretty well in. and they don't

donald trump lost and joe biden won, and today the federal government is getting back in the game. joe biden's attorney general announcing an investigation into derek chauvin's police department. >> yesterday's verdict in this state criminal trial does not address potentially systemic policing issues in minneapolis. today, i'm announcing that the justice department has opened a civil investigation, to determine whether the minneapolis police department engages in a pattern of practice, of unconstitutional, or unlawful policing. the department of justice will be unwavering in its pursuit, of equal justice. , under law. attorney general merrick garland will be heading that new pattern practice probe, along with his newly confirmed number three at the justice department, anita gupta. now the associate good tierney general of the united states, that you just heard speaking about those needs for the investigations. they show the dire need of change in the administration. this is one policy tool we do have to reform police departments that are pro can. democratic congressman -- in fergus

biden's standard and saying the manufacturing is going to be what gets this done. all of that is new. the apparatus of obstruction and denial is beginning to collapse. at the end of the day, it's the koch brothers, marathon petroleum and there's not much for the republicans to rally around any longer. >> sometimes you can see the segment as you are doing it and you are like, am i talking myself into something? we went through it. then i talked to you and now i'm convinced of my own thesis, which is a nice feeling that there really is a moment here, there's opportunity. >> the determination in the democratic senate is greater than ever. remember the republicans didn't want cap and trade. the white house and the senate leadership is what took it down and didn't even get it a vote in the senate. we have our own problems from the past. those are over. there is a really solid commitment from joe manchin across the board to solving this. >> all right, senator whitehouse, a leader on this. thank you for your time. >>> i said this before. it's worth repeating. it's still a

biden's standard and saying the manufacturing is would get this done. so all of that is new and the apparatus of obstruction and denial is beginning to collapse, and at the end of the day, it is going to be the marathon petroleum and another crazy dead enders, and at that point i don't think there is much for republicans to rally around any longer. you know oops it's funny, sometimes you can seal this segment as you're doing it. and i say am i talking myself into something, we sort of went through it, and then i talk to you, and now i'm convinced. i'm convinced of my own thesis. which is always a nice feeling, that there really is a moment, here there really is opportunity. senator sheldon of the white house. it was great to talk to you. >> is greater than ever. remember the republicans did not want trade, but the white house in the senate leadership is what took it down, and didn't even get a vote in the senate. we have our own problems, from the past. those are over, there is a really sally commitment right across the board, to solving this. >> senato

joe biden won and nobody knows what their talking about disputes that. election officials and the courts have found no merit to allegations of fraud or error. remember, all of this was litigated in arizona in courthouses. there's no reason to do an audit at all. moving on from that, the head of the company hired to oversee the audit actively promoted donald trump's fight to overturn the election. retweeting, i'm tired of hearing people say there's no fraud, it happened, it is real and people better get wise fast. that's the guy running the audit, the audit that's happening right now in those live shots. his name is doug logan. okay. today an "arizona central" reporter who volunteered to help the audit gain access quoted, i notice the auditors are supposed to only have blue pens, supposed to be only red. the blue pens the counter have could potentially be used to mark the ballots. i pointed this out to doug logan with cyber ninjas, that's his i'm apparently. doug is running this audit. he told me his understanding of blue ink was fine, the ballots only re

and then four years after that, joe biden won by more than 215,000 in november. that is not a great set of numbers for republicans in harris county. so it's not going in the right direction if you are a republican in harris county. what are they doing about it? they on could do soul searching to find out how did we lose these voters? no, they are not doing that. instead, they are trying to find out how best to sabotage the votes of the people in the large metro areas. we brought you the story of the incredible things that harris county judge, the chief executive for the county was doing for voter access in her county, in harris county. things like 24 hour voting. remember, we had pictures of that, drive-threw vvoting, and t worked. it was huge. democrats won the county and republicans won texas. they turned out across the state. so, okay, more people voted, great. all good all around. right? no, not all good all around. republicans are now specifically targeting the cities of texas with new voting legislation. quote, seeking to roll back virtually every expansion

joe biden is running 13 points ahead of the previous president in the latest nbc poll, that shows joe biden's approval rating 13 points higher than the previous president's approval rating at this exact point, four years ago. trouble for republicans is that the most popular person in the party is the person who lost the presidential debate to joe biden. that means republicans now think they cannot win. republicans believe they cannot win presidential elections if those elections are held fairly. instead of trying to counter joe biden's policies with their own policies, republicans are now lying about biden policies, for example republicans are now claiming, that joe biden wants to ban the consumption of meat. which is a complete and total lie. republicans find it easier to tell that lie, instead of arguing against policies like say, the increase in the corporate tax rate that joe biden will described wednesday night, as part of his in just four structure package, which now has the support of 68% of americans. cnbc announces the stock report is going the best it has in the presidency,

joe biden flipped arizona by 10,000 votes. maricopa county county, and they said the election results were verified. we don't know who they are. they hired a security firm lots of people didn't hear of. the guy associated with it tweeted stop the steal, and now they are trying to give donald trump, maybe, a pretend win, and the stolen election that has settled in the psyches of millions of republicans, and new voter restrictions in more than 40 states. the latest bill from florida, the bill would limit or drop boxes can be placed. and phew limits on who can collect the ballots and criminalize those waiting online to vote. two people who beat trump in the courts in the ballot box are fighting the fight too. they're going to join me after the break. each them. so she'll get some help from fidelity, and she'll feel so good about her plan, she can focus on living it. that's the planning effect, from fidelity. truthfully, it's frustrating to see how fast dust reappears. but dusting with a cloth is a pain. and dealing with a bulky v

only in the states -- here's the thing, joe biden flips arizona by just over 10,000 votes. maricopa county officials have already completed multiple audits and views of the election at the secretary of state's office said that the results were certified and this review won't change that. and here we are -- they hired this cybersecurity firm, lots unheard of the guy associated with it tweeted stop the steal and now they are trying to recount donald trump maybe to a pretend win. meanwhile, the widespread lie about a stolen election which is settled in the psyches of millions of republicans conservatives has resulted in republican state houses introducing voter restrictions and more than 40 states. the latest bill from florida who's already with the state senate and they were filled with drop boxes and limits on who can collect and drop off ballots. it criminalizes handing out food and water to those waiting in line to vote. two people will beat trump in the courts, the ballot box are fighting this fight too. they'll join me after the break. e after th break. advanced gum rest

. >> 100 days into office, how joe biden and his predecessor just ended the reagan era, leaving republicans with nothing. >> least going to control how much meat you can eat. can you imagine that? >>> what we're learning about what's at the heart of the rudy giuliani investigation. >> he just loves this country. and they raid his apartment. it's like, so unfair and such a double -- it's like a double standard. >> tonight, a look back at just how far rudy has fallen. >> nothing disturbs me more than to see all of the revelations of crime committed by the wealthiest members of our society. >>> minnesota attorney general keith ellison on police reform as george floyd's family comes to washington. "all in" starts right now. good evening from new york. i'm chris hayes. something i noticed that across the ideological spectrum in a surprising way there's agreement about president joe biden's first joint address to congress last night. lots of folks on the left and right that both agree that the scope and ambition of the domestic agenda biden laid out was truly staggering. and all that would come o

joe biden's nearly 50 years in his political career. he has never been particularly on the leading edge of the left of his party. eccentric through and through, or deal maker and a glad-hand. he's the guy who walked down from the podium last night, started shaking hands and asked a lawmaker, how is your mom? give you my love. and he was also the guy who laid out the most ambitious democratic agenda for robust government safety net in generations, probably since lyndon johnson proposed medicare. not only was there no shadow boxing with ronald reagan, there is no real apology. there is no defensiveness. he was on the offensive. >> my fellow americans, trickle down. trickle down economics has never worked. it's time to grow the economy from the bottom and the middle out. >> big part of biden ship has to do with what's happening in american life, particularly since that financial crash which i think discredited certain type of fetishism. we have the rise year after year of killed it'll age levels -- fighting battles that have been fought an
