The two discuss how divisive the political climate in the United States has become, President Biden's approval rating, the upcoming Virginia gubernatorial election, and the 2022 congressional midterm elections.
During the second half of the show, Brad leads a political round-table with Tara Devlin and Mark Grimaldi. The roundtable discusses the pair of infrastructure packages being proposed in the U.S. Senate. This includes the $1 trillion bipartisan package and the $3.5 trillion 'human infrastructure' package that would need to pass the Senate with 50 Democratic votes via reconciliation. They also analyze why Democratic Senators Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema might be standing in the way of the reconciliation bill passing in the Senate.
Finally, they preview the upcoming Supreme Court term about to begin, along with the crucial issues that the court will be hearing cases on including reproductive rights, gun regulations, and religious issues.
