jonathan capehart, here we are. the test vote of what is possible in the united states senate will turn out to be the vote on a bipartisan commission, a completely bipartisan idea, a bipartisan commission to investigate january 6th. we are going to find out in that vote exactly what is possible in the rest of the senate votes this year. >> you know, i thank you for giving me the seniority. it really should go to jim manley because he knows basically all of those characters there on capitol hill. but you're right, lawrence. this is going to be the first big bipartisan vote, and we're biting our nails over whether there's actually going to be a bipartisan vote. this is not -- what happened on january 6th is not a democratic issue. it's not a republican issue. it is a patriotism issue. that vote should be unanimous. it should unanimous to clear the filibuster, and it should be unanimous to pass the bill to get it to president biden's desk for his signature. american democracy was brought to the brink, and the fact that

david brooks and jonathan capehart consider the rift in the g.o.p.ative response to a massive spill of nike sneakers. plus, much more. >> woodruff: in many states, fully vaccinated americans can now resume many activities without wearing a mask. the new guidance announced yesterday by the c.d.c. was met with jubilation in many quarters. but, there are concerns the changes for indoor masking are happening too quickly. lisa desjardins follows up on those questions. >> desjardins: judy, some of those concerns are tied to the country's vaccination rates. more than half of all adults in the country are not yet fully vaccinated, and when you add americans under 18 years old, the nation is at just 36% fully vaccinated. me states, cities, and businesses may not be ready to ditch their masking requirements yet. we look at these concerns with dr. ranit mishori. she is a professor of family medicine at georgetown university and senior medical adviser to physicians for human rights. for the record, she's also an adviser to our parent company, weta. ranit, thank

fauci told my colleague, jonathan capehart, earlier today. >> i'm very concerned because they're not protected. that's the reason, jonathan, why we keep coming out saying please get vaccinated, not only for your own health, the health of your family but also the health of the community. certainly we don't want anybody to get infected. if you're asking me do i worry about being who are unvaccinated, i do. i'm a physician and i'm a public health official. and i do worry about people getting infected. >> all right. i want to go to nbc's cori coffin who's outside a pop-up vaccine site in the bronx. it's one of eight open in the city this week. how has this latest incentive to get vaccinated, how has it impacted the turnout so far? >> reporter: i asked doctors and they say the turnout here this weekend has been really big, more so than usual. about a third of people coming through here, it was impromptu, they didn't know it was here, they went ahead and got their shots. about two-thirds was word of mouth or hearing it on the news. they do believe that is due in part because of the cdc guid

that is david brooks and jonathan capehart.on this friday and i have to start by asking you each just for a thought on what cindy mccain had to say,, a lifelong republican, but clearly some distance they are president trump. jonathan: right and i am glad she made the point, she did vote for president biden, she endorsed him in the presidential campaign, but that she is staying within the party. she is not giving up our party to the folks who have taken it over and most definitely not giving up her party to president trump. the through-line through everything that she said was, what is good for the country. how can we talk about these issues civilly? we can disagree with each other but not disagree with each other so much so that we do not see each other's as they human beings. that is the brand of the republican party that i wish would come back. if it were to come back to, imagine how much could get done railway. in washington. -- could get done in washington. judy: and david, how hard is it to have that position in washington

here is what another former trump lawyer, michael cohen, told my colleague jonathan capehart a shortemails, what's in these chats he may have on encrypted apps. what about the possibility that donald trump is actually named in these communications, or don junior or jared or ivanka? maria yovanovitch, they already know what they have with her. everything else they're going to be able to find on those communication devices is just icing on the cake. >> giuliani has not been charged with any wrongdoing. joining me now to discuss it all, glenn kirschner, msnbc legal analyst and former federal prosecutor. i'm curious what you make of this. should anyone besides rudy giuliani be concerned about this investigation? >> you know, i think so, alex, because we've heard a lot about rudy giuliani's home, office, and electronic devices being searched by fbi agents pursuant to a federal judge issuing a search warrant because there was probable cause to believe a crime had been committed and there was evidence of crime in rudy giuliani's home, office, and electronic devices. so now the next question

fauci told jonathan capehart in response. >> i do have a great deal of respect for them. the case, jonathan. i think people who are unvaccinated should continue to wear masks. we're talking only about the people who are vaccinated. not the unvaccinated. so the unvaccinated people should continue to wear masks to protect themselves. >> i will admit that when i read unvaccinated, i thought i had read it incorrectly, and i think that is part of the confusion. do you agree with dr. fauci's assessment there? >> i do, but i would also step back and say i think everybody is just getting used to this new news and this new reality. and the science is so great on this. you know, when we went looking for this vaccine, we were hoping we would get a vaccine that would be maybe 50% effective. and what we have ended up with is upper 90s, three vaccines that are highly effective, not only at preventing hospitalization and death, but also just preventing you from getting the illness at all and preventing you from spreading it to others. when you put those things together, you can't get it,
