Summary

Milly, Alise, and Amanda react to Joe Manchin’s refusal to confirm Joe Biden’s cabinet appointees, many of whom happen to be women of color. They detail Manchin’s previous votes for controversial picks and unpack why women, specifically women of color, are held to a higher standard. Then they unload on the moderates in Congress who need some reform themselves. Then, they summarize the immigration reform bill coming to Congress. What are the politics, and could this be the issue Dems use to blow up the filibuster? Today’s Black History Month clip is the late Rep. John Lewis speaking at the March on Washington at age 23.
