>> dr. fauci's advice, is it maybe time for all of us to get the extra shot? >> there are no significant adverse events safety signals, that it look clear from safety, then i would be very much in favor of having boosters for everyone who's been primarily vaccinated at any age. >> and now that we know boosters are safe and effective, how and where do you get them? the best way to start is to call your local pharmacy or go online to your local state health department to see where the shots are being given. >> that is it for me. now i hand it to my colleague, zerlina maxwell. you'll be in incredible hands. she's picking up the second hour of our coverage. hello, zblerchlt are you going to get a boost? >> i already got mine. i went immediately. i'm boosted. i'm boosted. please stay safe.
9:01 pm
>> i am going on tuesday. i have an appointment on tuesday. maybe we can have a booster drinks afterwards. you can take it away from there. >> that sounds like a plan. stay safe. coming up, we did it, joe. the build back better bill passed the house. but now it's headed for an uncertain future, and, you guessed it, where? the senate. plus, hero or white vigilante, we are watching in live protests across the nation in reaction to yesterday's polarizing not guilty verdict in the kyle rittenhouse trial. and, first it was t. swift. now it's adele. go easy on us on this sad girl autumn. i need a red scarf to participate. i'm zerlina maxwell in for ayman mohyeldin. let's get started.
9:02 pm
after months of stop and go, the strps of president biden's domestic agenda is on its way to the united states senate. on friday morning the build back better act narrowly passed the house in a 220-213 vote. one democrat joined all of the republicans in voting against the nearly $1.7 trillion spending package. tensions between the parties spilled into the floor with a last-ditch effort delaying the vote from house minority leader kevin mccarthy. i don't know if you guys saw in. it went on for a while. although the debate was only scheduled to last 20 minutes, the house minority leader launched into an eight-hour plus mccarthy marathon. the speech did nothing to prevent passage of the bill but it did the break the house's record for the longest continuous speech in modern american history.
9:03 pm
and it seemed like that record was actually at the top of mind for kevin mccarthy because he noted right before he hit that eight-hour mark, i just have to get to a certain time. somebody must have told him. that certain time mccarthy was referencing, a speech made by speaker nancy pelosi back in 2018 during her time as minority leader, she spoke for eight hours, urging republicans to allow a vote on immigration legislation that would protect dreamers. undocumented immigrants brought to the u.s. as children. she spent the majority reading personal letters from dreamers themselves. contrast that with mccarthy who spent his eight hours and 32 minutes doing this. >> i want to go back to when we were respected around the world. i want to go back to we didn't have north korea testing nuclear weapons. i want to go back to when china wasn't flying over taiwan every day. you know, this day, there's only
9:04 pm
one black american elected to congress and the senate, tim scott. there's two families that grow 50% of all the carrots in the country. have you ever eaten one of these baby carrots? there's a secret. there's no such thing. they're just big carrots, they chop them, they charge you, you buy them. >> i'm sorry, what was this vote about? i thought it was about human infrastructure. it was a social spending package under consideration, but this wasn't about child care or beating pelosi's record. mccarthy's speech was playing to an audience of one, former president donald trump. this wasn't as much as a speech as it was an eight-hour-long job interview for a job with a guy who lost the most recent election. president trump and his base had been sowing doubt against the wannabe speaker for months and
9:05 pm
this was his chance to make his loyalty crystal-clear. i guess it seemed to work. trump voiced his approval in a statement telling mccarthy "he did a good job. don't worry, he took the time to say, quote, if mitch mcconnell had fought, you would have a different republican president right now, which is, of course, a fantasy. however, it's clear kevin mccarthy's stunt didn't go over all of the maga base. as mccarthy was speaking, representative matt gaetz tweeted out the minority leader was bringing it on the floor. but the next day the florida man changed his tune, and he did so on steve bannon's podcast, because bannon the indicted former white house staffer still has a podcast. that's the same steve bannon that's currently charged with contempt of congress, as you know. gaetz called his speech a long death rattle. and he said the final outcome was a consequence of poor hardship and poor strategy.
9:06 pm
so i guess you can't win them all, but there's one thing kevin mccarthy did do. he gave the democrats their win in broad daylight in the middle of a friday when everybody was paying attention, congratulations, kevin, way to go. there's a lot to discuss tonight. let's bring in our panel. anita kumar, maria idiosa, also the author of the great book "once i was you." and aknee that, i'll start with you. i feel like there's a split screen here, a juxtaposition between the democrats governing, passing things as is their job, and getting massively consequential things through. and you have whatever mccarthy is doing. what do you see americans are seeing this and between speeches about carrots and human and infrastructure and child care? >> well, i think you are exactly right earlier when you were
9:07 pm
saying all kevin mccarthy really did and he knew this from the beginning was delaying the vote. you're right. it got a daytime vote that everybody got to see. he knew this would have no impact on it and he was playing not only to donald trump, but others. he is talking about wanting to be speaker. he's tried this before. he's going to try it again if the republicans win the house. and it's not as easy as people may think if they win, right? you know, it's not a sure thing. he has been criticized by members of his caucus and he was criticized just the day before by donald trump's former chief of staff, mark meadows. he was showing donald trump and others what he was made of and that's really what that was about. and then of course, as you mentioned, democrats are moving ahead with this bill. but of course, it's not done yet. it's going to go to the senate where it faces some other problems.
9:08 pm
>> maria, do you think that kevin mccarthy thought that was going to work? i mean, you're just performing for donald trump, but, i mean, we've listed through donald trump being disloyal to the people that were most loyal to him, including his vice president. is it just another example of a republican trying to show loyalty to donald trump and perhaps in the end failing because you already have matt gaetz on steve bannon's podcast saying it wasn't great. >> i have to be honest with you, zerlina. the last person i like to think about or spend any time thinking about or what's going on in this person's head is donald trump. i think that that is part of the whole issue and part of what happens is it's all about him, and i think i'm thinking about the democratic party. i'm thinking about when you read the introduction, how slim it was that build back better was able to make it through the
9:09 pm
house, the kind of challenge that it's facing in the senate. and then i think about what the democratic party stands for or says it stands for. you know, i know that people don't want me to be a debbie downer in the maria kind of way, but the critique is where is that democratic party that people voted for that's going to stand up and make the fight? i think build back better is great. it's so important. there's a lot there and we should be talking about the specifics of it. but at the same time, as you know, it was a whittled-down build back better plan. so there's the question about where is the fight? where is the fight? and think i worry about the fact that the largest growth in terms of people who are disapproving of joe biden are latinos and latinas, the second largest voting bloc in the united states of america. so that's what i'm thinking
9:10 pm
about. i am not thinking about that other guy. >> no, i understand that completely. i think probably we should all for our sanity limit donald trump. the whole republican party is obsessed of what he's thinking. maria makes a good point about approval of joe biden among communities of color. what would a message sound like in this moment now that you have build back better through the house? you just have to get it through the senate, although that's never an easy feat. what would it sounds like to those communities of color, those latinx voters who are, you know, frustrated in this particular moment so that they understand how this particular legislation benefits them? >> well, a couple things. first of all, let's talk about kevin. i don't understand why any person would want to apply for a job from a guy that got fired from another job. that's coming up to me, but
9:11 pm
whatever. you start talking about the statement trump said, and i started thinking i don't even know any of the statements trump makes because he's banned from all social media. it's so weird to get the attention from someone like that. second of all, i think there's a couple things. we have been to remember that joe biden has been in office for less than a year. he hasn't even been in office for a year. so what we do is we acknowledge the build back better. that's one thing that really we need to focus on when we talk about politics, especially with voting blocs like the event latino community community. we need to remember we have been doing some movement. kevin mccarthy did an eight-hour speech mentioning carrots, nobody is going to say i don't care about child care now. this is what we're doing now. look, we know what we faltered on, and i expect voters to call them out and put pressure on it
9:12 pm
to make sure they make amends. but the thing about making change and moving the needle is that you have to have hope that things will change, even though it doesn't change at the exact moment that you want. we still have three more years of change to go through, and we still have midterms. so i'm still pretty positive about it. i'll be honest, though. i was a surrogate for biden and there's moments like where i'm like this is not what i was a surrogate for. that's because we live in this country where we can actually have these debates and arguments, and that's why i hold him accountable because i supported him. >> today is the president's birthday, he's 79 years old, shout out to scorpios. that's something to keep in mind as we talk about perhaps the resistance to bold action. you know, he's in his later years, and a lot of what he believes is established.
9:13 pm
one of the things was he went anesthesia and made kamala harris president. donald trump didn't do that. i remember donald trump . the president is at least responsible with the launch codes and governing the country. >> i remember the day donald trump apparently -- we now have learned, or it seems he had a colonoscopy. he left the white house, no one knew where he was going. they announced it was part of a physical and it just was a guessing game for a couple years until we learned recently from a book that he actually had a colonoscopy. he did not put mike pence in charge while he was doing that. and so it's really a huge difference in what we saw. obviously joe biden announced -- his office announced it that day.
9:14 pm
he came back and talked to the media. so it's been a real difference in how these two men approached this. i covered donald trump for four years. you guys know this as well as anyone, which is he does not -- he talks about his health, he talks about being physically fit. he wants to portray that message, and there's no part of him that wants to show any weakness. so my understanding that he thought that would show weakness if he went under for that procedure, so he didn't do it. it's a huge contrast, both men put out a summary. we didn't hear all the details of either of their physical, but how they approached it was very different. >> i at least enjoyed the 85 minutes where i could say the president is a woman for those 85 minutes. regardless of political party, i think that is pretty cool. anita kumar, thank you so much for being here and helping us
9:15 pm
start off this hour. maria and cristela, you're sticking around because we have to talk about sad girl autumn. coming up, we'll turn to the trillion of kyle rittenhouse. he got a not guilty verdict, but it wasn't just him on trial. we'll dig into what this outcome says about white vigilanteism. later this hour, with all the heavy news lately, some of us are leaning on songs about heartbreak. as i said, sad girl autumn is all the rage today. but i kind of want to go back to hot girl summer. first, richard lui is here with the headlines. >> how is it going? very good evening. an update now. we're learning more an accidental charge of a firearm that sent travelers into a panic saturday at the country's busiest airport. police confirming a gun went off inside atlanta's hartsfield-jackson airport at the main security checkpoint. three nonlife-threatening injuries were reported. unknown as to what that was associated with.
9:16 pm
a settlement with the family of elijah mcclain friday killed by aurora police in 2015. that agreement is the largest police settlement in the city's history. rolls-royce announced a milestone in the future of air travel. they claim to have developed the world's fastest all-electric aircraft. that plane you see here named the spirit of innovation reached a top speed of 387 miles an hour. more after the break. as someone who resembles someone else, i appreciate that liberty mutual knows everyone's unique. that's why they customize your car insurance, so you only pay for what you need. oh, yeah. that's the spot. only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty, liberty, liberty, liberty ♪ ♪ my songs know what you did in the dark ♪ ♪ so light 'em up, up, up light 'em up, up, up ♪ ♪ light 'em up, up, up ♪

9:20 pm
the fate of kyle rittenhouse has been decided. >> we, the jury, find the defendant, kyle h. rittenhouse, not guilty. >> but the implications of that not guilty verdict stretch far outside the walls of that wisconsin courtroom because it wasn't just kyle rittenhouse on trial. white vigilanteism was too. as rittenhouse cements his status in an upcoming documentary, the great threat and real possibility is that there are other kyle rittenhouses out there. young men who watched this verdict and saw how the right embraced and celebrated a murderer, and now want to follow his lead.
9:21 pm
he goes on to warn that the first thing for america would be the worst thing for america would be that this case becomes exemplar and precursor and is just the first of many. our panel is back with us and also joining us is sha var jeffries, civil rights attorney and president of education reform. rittenhouse claims he shot three people, killing two in self-defense. and a lot of this hinged on what that law means in wisconsin. during the trial, the burden falls on the prosecutors to disprove that claim, and in this case it's pretty clear they couldn't convince the jury. unpack that for us. >> well, we have a pretty liberal set of laws of self-defense connected to some of the issues around racial injustice. i'm sure we'll talk about it. the prosecution had to prove beyond a shadow of a reasonable
9:22 pm
doubt that rittenhouse was not reasonable in believing that he feared for his life in that moment. so it's a very high burden, obviously when you overlay that with some of the racial dynamics where white defendants in these circumstances get even more of the benefit of the doubt, there was testimony that suggested that he was being chased and there was testimony suggesting that a person maybe threatened his life. when you combine that with a very high standard that the prosecution had and the ways in which race informs and, frankly, privileged white defendants in these circumstances, i was not at all surprised by the verdict we saw yesterday. as disappointed as i was. >> maria, with all of that in mind, what's your reaction to this idea that white vigilantes may be emboldened by this? there is all the police killings that we can recall from the past year during this racial reckoning. what do you think this verdict
9:23 pm
says to those folks who may feel compelled to act out their rage? >> i mean, zerlina, this is what this country has been dealing with since the very beginning, right? since 1619 and before against indigenous people. it has been this constant battle around white supremacy and using power and whatever method possible to and maintain exude that power. there's a word that i grew up hearing as a mexican immigrant going to mexico and studying latin american studies, and the word in spanish -- in english it's impunity. it's such a stuff word because it means exactly what we are all feeling. there is a young man like kyle rittenhouse who could get away with murder of people who are practicing democracy on foot.
9:24 pm
the right to protest and gather en masse is part of democracy. and i think about how this is being covered, because you know i was just traveling in colombia and mexico, thinking about how this is being covered there and how the united states a place of so-called freedom, innocent protesters are being murdered, and the person who did it is getting away with it, literally. it's impunity. >> one of the things people have brought up is if kyle rittenhouse was not white, this would have turned out differently. do you share that assessment? do you think that race was just as much a part of this case as so many others we've seen in the past? >> absolutely. because when we talk about race, we don't talk about preconceived notions that are attached to it. there's a lot of notions that
9:25 pm
come with certain race and what people are taught, even though they might not be aware of it, and sometimes they are. but sometimes it's the subconscious of how they were raised and the thoughts that are ingrained in their mind that they don't understand they see people differently. with regards to the rittenhouse's verdict, it reminds me of the first time in my life where i found myself not being able to cry. i couldn't stop crying. didn't even know i was crying. i felt so much. and i was talking to dolores huerta, activist, and she said this is the first time you feel your country has broken your heart. it won't be the last time. when she said that, it hit me that, yes, i had be disappointed in my life, but there's moments when you actually feel that things are so wrong and
9:26 pm
blatantly obvious that the result has to be the right thing, that when it's not, you can't help but feel be like you put so much faith and gave so much credit to people, that you can't help but think, wow, how could i have been wrong about people in this country, that like maria said, as a child of immigrants, first-generation american, we're taught about this beauty, this ideal of this country, and then you become an adult and you realize -- where did it stop? and that's how it feels, because you realize -- i realized, the older i've gotten, every year i grow up -- i'm in my 40s. and i realized, wow, every year you find out different ways of how we're treated differently. it's just heartbreaking. it's always in the level of heartbreak. >> no, you're so right about it
9:27 pm
breaking your heart. it's sort of like a dull ache all the time. you're like, i'm just like everybody else. we're human. >> but we have to keep going, right, zerlina? i mean, we have no choice. for me it's like, yes -- this is a dark day, there have been many dark days, and this is, like, we need to understand this is the long haul, the long haul. and so we have to remember, right? whoever you feel rooted in, for me it's frederick douglas all the time. so find the person and realize -- look at the struggle. that means we may get tired or may be crying all those times, cristela and i talked about the tears. today i'm crying, but tomorrow something else is going to happen because this is the long haul. >> it is the long haul. sha var, one of the things that came up earlier today that's related to this, that's a side issue but connected, is guns,
9:28 pm
just the access folks have to guns. we had an incident in the atlanta airport earlier. talk about the fact that we have the self-defense laws. we have racism in the history of white supremacy but also easy access to guns and all kinds of places that create this type of chaos and the kyle rittenhouse situation we have been seeing. >> so the combination of the ways in which racism embedded into our criminal punishment system, coupled with very liberal self-defense laws, and very liberal access to guns, and not just guns, but assault weapons, creates a very combustible mix and we should expect more of these situations. i think it's important to understand this in the historical context. what we saw with rittenhouse is not different from what we've seen for a long period of time.
9:29 pm
the fugitive slave law. we saw the murder of emit till and the murder of alabama, white vigilantes bringing people back. i think we can understand the challenges by looking back and find some potential solution. so this isn't different. but we also seen in our history that people of all racial backgrounds have fought together, marched together, have pushed this country to not where we want it to be, but some progress. we can both understand the challenges by looking back at history and we can find some potential solutions by looking at the ways in which people of all backgrounds can come together to move this country forward. >> thank you so much for being here. maria and cristela, stick around. but i think the message was keep pushing on, so that's what we'll do on this show. coming up, you know people who love to talk but don't have a whole lot to say. i was trying to get that out. but i'm talking about kyrsten sinema and our hypocrisy hot

with the house voting yesterday to advance the build back better agenda, attention now shifts to the two so-called moderate democrats in the u.s. senate. you know what i'm talking about, arizona senator kyrsten sinema and joe manchin. but kyrsten sinema caused concern among democrats when she pointed out in an interview with "the washington post" that the bill passed in the house was, quote, not the agreement the president put out in his framework several weeks ago. that got me thinking. now, one half of the manchin-ma is holding up the agenda, president biden and the rest of the democratic party were elected on yet again. senator sinema clearly loves the attention and relishes the power she has over washington right now. i mean, who wouldn't? with sinema's recent comments to
9:35 pm
politico had our bs detectors going a bit crazy. she told them, you're either honest or you're not honest. so just tell the truth and be honest and deliver that which you can deliver. there's this growing trend of people in both political parties who promised things that cannot be delivered in order to get short-term political gain and that damages the long-term health of our democracy, which i find pretty rich, because one of the two democratic senators responsible for blocking the package of president biden's agenda happens to be tired of politicians overpromising what they're able to deliver? seriously? we couldn't help but be reminded of the hot dog guy meme, which is one of my favorite internet memes, by the way, in light of those comments. here it is in case you've been living under a rock. >> is everyone okay?

>> i feel you on that maria. >> glory steinem said there's going to be dancing at the revolution, so i'm not coming unless there's dancing, and reggaeton, i love it. i'm into k-pop right now. cristela, are you more of a sad girl autumn vibe? or are you like maria, putting on the dance songs in dystopia. >> i made a mistake listening to adele's album while i was driving. what? oh, my. driving in traffic in los angeles, i started out with -- immediately, you know what? my heart is in traffic. i need help. she makes me feel so many things. look, we went through a pandemic and that was a different version of sad. but adele? first of all, i was not expecting these vocal clips
9:45 pm
where she's talking to her son, talking to herself and i'm thinking, damn, adele, like, you just give it to us like that? zerlina, i don't want to brag. i'm single. this album makes me want to meet someone, just to have my heart broken and feel it. i mean, like, i want to have a child right now so that years from now i'm like mommy was can you find just like adele. it's just nice to feel something that makes you feel some normalcy. she's right. i'm that generation. i'm in my 40s, i go to therapy. and you know what? there's something really nice about understanding that it's okay to be sad. and actually, sometimes, feeling sad can make you feel good, because it makes you appreciate when you're happy. so it's that thing where when you start thinking about things -- she took me through -- man. i felt like i was married to adele's ex. i figure through some stuff. you know what i mean?
9:46 pm
at the same time, man, it makes me appreciate when i'm listening to reggaeton, you know what i mean? that thing where we can feel so much and that's the beautiful thing about music in general. it doesn't matter who you are, where you come from. the rhythm, hey, in the words of gloria estefan, the rhythm is going to get you. >> i listen to k-pop. i don't know korean yet, i'm learning. but music, i think, the rhythm of it is universal, like you said. maria, you know, one of the things that i was thinking how you were under a tarp. with people who had the reggaeton on, it's that gratitude piece. can you speak to this idea that after a week like we've had, it's been a rough week, we're still in this pandemic. if you haven't been boosted, get your booster, because we're about to head into the cold winter months of covid again.
9:47 pm
talk about just how this -- how culture and the things that we used to escape like music are so critically important to us all surviving this pandemic and coming out on the other side sane. >> so, zerlina, i don't know if you know this, but there are k-pop camps that exist in mexico. okay? so they are training young mexicans to perform k-pop. and there's a korean-mexican interchange that go happening in terms of k-pop that is, like, really fascinating. just so you know in terms of your next k-pop fascination. one of the ways in which -- earlier tonight, cristela was talking about what happened the night of 2016 when the former president won and how sad she was. and i spoke to people older than me and people like dolores
9:48 pm
huerta, and they said, you know what? some of the most amazing art was created during the time of the depression, during the time of the vietnam war and the civil rights era and so this is a time of extraordinary creativity. and so that's kind of in terms of for me the gratitude, the creativity, just doing things if we can, if we have the privilege, because we are very privileged the three of us right here. we're incredibly privileged. that we can be talking about this, that we can be saying, oh, my god, gratitude, gratitude. at the same time, as a covid survivor, let me tell you, that changed everything for me. every day i'm like, i'm here, my husband is here, my kids are here, my doggie, walter, my cats, you know, people who i care for. yo, i'm like, good. i'm good, now let's go out and do something crazy, do amazing journalism, meet incredible people, laugh with cristela and
9:49 pm
with you, take up space. yeah, it's all about it. by the way, i love adele too. but i'm i'm sorry for you, cristela, pobrecita, you were crying alone in your car. i'm so sorry for you. >> sometimes we feel what we feel what we feel, maria. we can't stop it. that's human nature. that's okay. >> no, no, no. i think it's good to cry. i think if you're holding it in in this pandemic, let it out, you know. i call it intersecting distopias because climate change is there and we're paying attention to all these other things but, look, get it out. and then go dance. cry and then dance. >> completely. >> those are the rules. >> completely. >> those are the rules. maria and cristela, it's been so great to have you tonight, both of you. thank you so much for being here and playing with us all night. please stay safe. up next -- bye! up next, to infinite and beyond. impressive women making history around the world and even maybe in space. that's next.
