Episode Summary

On Thursday, President Joe Biden gave his first press conference, 64 days into his administration. How did Biden and the press perform? And a look at the week ahead, which the White House would like to be devoted to infrastructure. Biden is scheduled to talk about his "Build Back Better" bill in a speech he’ll deliver in Pittsburgh. Everyone in Washington talks about infrastructure as the ultimate bipartisan agenda item, but this is already shaping up to be a battle over what is defined as "infrastructure," and who pays for it.
