Summary

The Biden administration has been contacting state officials and governors telling them to prepare to vaccinate children as young as 5 to 11 next month, expecting an imminent FDA emergency approval of Pfizer's COVID vaccine for young kids. Former Assistant Secretary for Health under President Trump, Admiral Brett Giroir joins to discuss the deadly Delta variant and if there is light at the end of the tunnel. Democrats are getting ready to make some cuts to their original $3.5-trillion spending package in order to get it passed both houses of Congress after moderate Senators Joe Manchin (D-WV) and Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) made it clear they would not support the multi-trillion dollar bill. Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX) joins today to weigh in on the infrastructure and budget reconciliation bill, what needs to be included and if the Biden administration is to blame for the ongoing inflation and labor shortages since he took office nine months ago. Plus, commentary by FOX News contributor Joe Concha. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
