After an historic swarm of deadly tornadoes tore through six states in the Midwest and rescuers scramble to find survivors, Jake speaks with Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear about the devastating impact on his community and asks FEMA administrator Deanne Criswell about what the federal government is doing to help. Next, with Covid cases on the rise and vaccine resistance still high in parts of the United States, how far should the government go to make sure everyone gets vaccinated? New York Mayor Bill de Blasio and Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson join Jake to debate their opposing views on vaccine mandates. 

Then, with President Biden’s social safety net legislation facing a critical week ahead in the Senate, Jake asks Democratic Sen. Amy Klobuchar if her party will be able to pass the bill by Christmas. Finally, Jake reports on the January 6 committee uncovering more details about Trump allies’ efforts to steal the 2020 election and looks at the ways in which they’re laying the groundwork to try again in 2024.
