Election Day 2021! We made it through another first Tuesday in November! Let's talk about what happened on Election Day, and why. What does it mean for how Democrats and Republicans will campaign in 2022? What does it mean for the Biden Presidency? Is success -- or lack there of -- indicative of future success? Does it mean anything at all or are politics people just overdramatic? Let's chat!

In this episode, we go through the final (?) framework for the Build Back Better plan, and figure out how we got here. Plus, we talk about Biden's representation at the G-20 summit this past weekend and implications for future global climate policy. My intern Preston also comes in to help me talk about BBB!

-I mention that it seems that Manchin has signaled his support for the current legislation, however since recording it seems clear that he is going to continue dragging his feet on certain provisions. We'll talk more about this next week, but it certainly seems that the plan is less safe in the Senate than party leaders would like.
