Millions of Americans voted for Joe Biden on the promise that he will improve the terrible anti-immigrant policies that have been part of the United States since its founding, and which were made so much worse under Donald Trump. But President Biden continues to disappoint. Nomiki Konst opens today’s show by discussing the mainstream narrative that voters are pleased with Biden, acknowledging his accomplishments and shortcomings.

Then, Lucy Flores joins to criticize the Biden administration’s position on immigration. Finally, Esperanza Fonseca and Piper Winkler make up today’s #FemFriday panel, where they react to Chelsea Clinton on The View, Andrew Yang laughing off misogynistic comments, and the lack of representation of women in media.
