Senator Joe Manchin, “Plunkitt of West Virginia,” is putting bipartisanship above meeting the needs of the American people. Nomiki talks to No Excuses PAC's Corbin Trent to discuss their new campaign to let fringe Democrats in the Senate like Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema that if they stand in the way of progress, the will be replaced. And later, Jordan Zakarin and Simon Narode join to look at the news stories of the day including MSNBC realizing that labor unions, which have been getting progressively weaker for decades, are actually becoming stronger during the COVID-19 crisis.
