Democrats are poised to push through President Biden’s $1.9 trillion Covid relief package, with or without Republican support – but who will actually receive those much-needed $1,400 checks? Biden says he’s willing to negotiate on the income cutoff for recipients, which could mean fewer people getting checks in this round of relief. Meanwhile, there are new arrests and charges in the January 6 Capitol insurrection as the clock ticks closer to the historic second impeachment trial of Donald J. Trump. Ali Velshi discusses these stories and more with White House economic adviser Jared Bernstein, terrorism analyst Malcolm Nance, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Nikole Hannah Jones, Washington Post reporter Eugene Scott, Dr. Camara Jones, Deborah Watts, Axios reporter Alexi McCammond, Atlantic staff writer Caitlin Dickerson, Dr. Andre Campbell, and Alexis Collins.
