Summary

The bipartisan infrastructure bill failed its test vote in the Senate, however the group of Democratic and Republican lawmakers who drafted the framework continue negotiating the legislation and President Biden suggested this would be a momentary setback until the measure is brought back next week. After the failed vote, some Democrats began discussing budget reconciliation as a method to fold physical infrastructure into their already multi-trillion spending plan. Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) has had a front row seat to the chaos in the Senate and joins to explain why Republicans voted down the bipartisan infrastructure bill and his hopes that the bill will deal with physical infrastructure instead of a Democrat wish list. He explains his concern with inflation impacting the U.S. economy, his advocacy for police reform that better funds law enforcement and his priorities for his 2022 Senate re-election campaign. Earlier this week, the world watched Amazon and Blue Origin founder Jeff Bezos take-off into space for a 10-minute flight and land successfully back onto Earth with his space crew. This was Blue Origin's first human flight into space and the second historic space mission this month following Virgin Galactic founder Richard Branson's space launch. Is this the beginning of the space tourism industry or is it now becoming the battle of the billionaires in space? We speak with astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson about the recent Blue Origin flight, and if billionaires getting involved will negatively impact the perception of space tourism. Don't miss the good news with Tonya J. Powers. Plus, commentary by Rachel Campos-Duffy, co-host of "FOX & Friends Weekend" and co-host of From the Kitchen Table. Learn more about your ad choices.
