infrastructure deal of a trillion dollars, it s there for the taking. you just need to get involved and lead. and cnn s suzanne malveaux joins us up on capitol hill. it seems too good to be true. a bipartisan deal. is this actually going to happen? we ll see, jim. we re not going to hold our breath just quite yet. but the indications are looking good. the signs are looking good there may be a breakthrough here. senator bernie sanders talked to dana bash earlier this morning and essentially he s rolling out in his role as the powerful chair of the senate banking committee a $6 trillion reconciliation package. that s a democratic only package and it goes beyond the physical infrastructure ideas. it s not just roads and bridges and broadband but also what they call human infrastructure. medicare, dealing with immigration, climate change, things of that nature. well, senator sanders has already heard from moderate democrats like joe manchin and jeanne shaheen, john tester.
is safe and that they keep you safe as well. thank you so much. thank you so much. what a wonderful way to end the day. she s fantastic. thank you all so much for joining me at this hour, i m kate bolduan, john king picks our coverage right now. hello, everybody, and welcome to inside politics, i m john king in washington, new cnn reporting this hour finds donald trump more obsessed than ever with the 2020 election and his big lie that it was stolen from him. a police officer assaulted during the capitol insurrection warns such talk might trigger for violence. president biden and the key infrastructure ideas, yes, they are moving closer but liberals are losing patience and worried the president is wasting presht time. the race is on now to get 70% of adults at least one covid vaccine shot by the 4th of july.
drop of anything to reach certain people? why can t we have great infrastructure ideas? why can t we just have great ideas that are not based on what we might have just to get people to respond? senator warren and president trump both really like this kind of fight. they want to have a fight. and he is a great marketer but, he will pay it out over 1,024 days and parts. that isn t actually effective for our kids. we should be doing real stuff, and this isn t real. responding to what you said, and when we leave the couch we are actually friends. they also don t like fraud
