you had representative steve cohen say to erica if we cannot govern, talking about the democratic partyd in 2022 and 2024. the big question for folks at home who are probably sick of hearing the back and forth, is there a path forward? is there a middle ground between the progressives and the moderates or conservatives as you call them in the senate? >> i mean, as of right now, it doesn't look like it. i mean, you know, the moderates in the senate and congress expect some kind of agreement in the end, but the progressives not so much. as i reported in my piece, they feel they've conceded grown. they already feel they've agreed to -- made agreements to back a $3.5 trillion reconciliation bill instead of a $6 trillion bill. so i don't know, man. it doesn't look like there's a clear path out, very little time left. >> to your point, and we've heard that a number of times, as you've reported here and progressives really feel like, look, we've given a lot. we wanted $6 trillion, we've settled on $3.5 trillion, letting other things go. but to follow up on jim's point there, how much of the di
