Summary
The House passed the Respect for Marriage Act on Tuesday with bipartisan support. The law would mandate that all states recognize same-sex marriage and formally repeal the Clinton-era Defense of Marriage Act, which federally outlawed same-sex marriage.
Meanwhile the White House is hoping to pass a “slimmed down” version of Biden’s domestic policy bill through Congress soon. But to do it, they need the support of West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin — the same man who dealt a huge blow to the President’s climate agenda last week.
And in headlines: the White House said that Russia plans to forcefully annex more Ukrainian territory, the Secret Service said it can’t recover agents’ deleted text messages from January 6th, and a judge fast-tracked Twitter’s lawsuit against Elon Musk.

| 0:00.0 | It's Wednesday, July 20th. I'm Erin Ryan and I'm Josie Duffy Rice and this is what a day. |
| 0:10.5 | Informing fans of generically handsome white men that the industry leader Chris Evans |
| 0:15.0 | is looking to date. |
| 0:16.3 | Yes, he said in an interview that he is, quote, leaves or focused on finding a partner |
| 0:20.4 | which a certain kind of woman might interpret as a bat signal. Or what is a Captain America |
| 0:25.9 | signal? A shield sign. On today's show, the Secret Service told the January 6th |
| 0:33.2 | Committee that it cannot recover a bunch of deleted texts from that day that agents |
| 0:37.0 | sent to each other. Very interesting. Sus. Sus is right. Plus a man sues the |
| 0:43.8 | maker of Skittles because he claims the candy is, quote, unfit for human consumption. |
| 0:48.5 | Wow. Then what does that make me? Because I have eaten enough Skittles to kill a small |
| 0:55.4 | town. But first in Washington, DC yesterday. |
| 0:58.8 | I have your time. Please. Please. |
| 1:01.4 | I'm currently participating in legal demonstration activity. |
| 1:05.4 | You see the disaster you will be arrested. |
| 1:07.9 | So that sound you heard was police warning people demonstrating outside of the Supreme |
| 1:13.1 | Court that they were participating in illegal protest and that they better knock it off |
| 1:17.2 | or risk arrest. The demonstrators angry about the justice's decision to overturn |
| 1:22.0 | row did not knock it off. And as a result, those protesters affiliated with the Center |
| 1:26.5 | for Popular Democracy Action were arrested among them. 17 members of Congress, including |
| 1:32.0 | AOC of New York, Barbara Lee of California, who we just talked to last week. Jan Chikowski |
| 1:36.8 | of Illinois, Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, and Andy Levin of Michigan. Levin, by the way, |
