June 25, 2021 Miami-Dade Police: 99 people still unaccounted for in condo collapse
An intense search and rescue effort will continue through the night as nearly 100 people remain unaccounted for after a 12-story condo building collapsed in Surfside, Florida. Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava said at least one person has died and the cause of the collapse is still unknown. Kevin Spiegel’s wife, Judy Spiegel, is one of the missing. He tells Anderson Cooper his family has “a lot of hope that Judy is still alive” and she’s an “amazing person.” Plus, President Biden says “we have a deal” on infrastructure with a bipartisan group of senators. It’s still unclear if the bill will have enough support from GOP senators or progressive lawmakers for it to be signed into law. Independent Sen. Bernie Sanders joins AC360 to discuss what he thinks of the deal.

June 24, 2021 New videos show Capitol rioters attacking police calling them “pigs” and “f***ing traitors”
The Justice Department released six new police body camera and surveillance videos that show rioters harassing and attacking police on January 6 around the Capitol building, even calling them “pigs” and “f***ing traitors.” Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick was injured while physically engaging with the rioters and later died after he collapsed. Sicknick’s life partner, Sandra Garza, and his mother, Gladys Sicknick, join AC360 to react to the new video and the attempt by some members of the GOP to whitewash what happened on January 6. Plus, Republican Sen. Mitt Romney and Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin announced there’s an agreement with White House officials and ten senators on infrastructure. The senators said it’s fully paid for and offsets the new spending. Democratic Sen. Chris Murphy tells Anderson Cooper “we’re going to have to take a deep dive into the agreement that they’ve reached and square it with the needs of our voters.”

June 22, 2021 Poll: Most Americans reject validity of 2020 election audits
A new Monmouth University poll suggests most Americans reject Republican efforts to audit states’ 2020 election results and they believe the reviews are an attempt to undermine valid election outcomes. The poll showed that 57% of Americans say they view the audits as “partisan efforts to undermine valid election results.” The problem-ridden audit in Arizona has yet to uncover any evidence suggesting widespread voter fraud. Democratic Secretary of State Katie Hobbs tells there’s “nothing that can be done now to overturn the election” even if the Arizona audit was valid. Plus, as President Joe Biden’s agenda enters a critical week on Capitol Hill ahead of a looming Senate recess, CNN Contributor and staff writer for The New Yorker Evan Osnos joins AC360 to discuss whether Sen. Joe Manchin’s search for common ground could wreck the Democrats’ agenda.

June 19, 2021 New videos obliterate GOP whitewashing of Capitol riot
Newly released video from January 6 shows a supporter of former President Trump, Scott Fairlamb, taunting, stalking, and punching law enforcement outside the U.S. Capitol. Fairlamb is charged with 12 criminal counts including assaulting police and carrying a dangerous weapon into the Capitol. These videos recently released by the Department of Justice undermine Republican efforts to whitewash the January 6 insurrection. Democratic Rep. Ruben Gallego tells Anderson Cooper he doesn’t think these videos will change any of his Republican colleagues’ minds. Plus, despite the Vatican’s warning, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops proceeded with a plan that could deny communion to public figures who support abortion rights, like President Joe Biden. Rev. James Martin said he was very surprised and discouraged by the vote. He joins AC360 to discuss whether or not he thinks the vote was politically motivated.

June 18, 2021 DOJ releases new body camera video of January 6 riot
The Justice Department released horrifying new police body camera video from the Capitol hill insurrection on January 6. The video shows a man, who is being charged with seven federal crimes, screaming profanities at officers, threateningly wielding a flagpole and rushing at officers. Sandra Garza’s life partner, Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick, was injured while physically engaging with the rioters and later died after he collapsed. Garza tells Anderson Cooper “this is not loving America.” Plus, Sen. Joe Manchin, a key Democratic vote in a 50-50 Senate, has said he’s opposed to the For the People Act in its current form but released a proposal of his own. His compromises include making Election Day a holiday, banning gerrymandering, mandating at least 15 consecutive days of early voting and instituting a voter ID requirement that includes a utility bill as an alternative. Democratic Sen. Amy Klobuchar is a co-sponsor of the For the People Act. She joins AC360 to discuss Manchin’s proposed changes.
