With a strategy crafted by legislative politics mastermind Mitch McConnell, the GOP laid waste to House Democrats in 2010, picking up the Senate in 2014, and capturing the White House in 2016.As President Joe Biden signs the latest covid relief bill - the American Rescue Plan Act - the Republican Party is deploying that same strategy they used in 2010.But does it work in 2021?

It is an historic day in Washington, DC as Pres. Joe Biden's signature domestic policy issue, the Covid relief bill, passed in the House of Representatives. The President also announced plans for a deal that would produce 100 million more doses of the one-shot Johnson and Johnson vaccine. CNN’s Gloria Borger and John King discuss the next challenges ahead for the President, promoting and executing on the promises in the bill. Also, Democratic congressional progressive caucus chair Rep. Pramila Jayapal tells Anderson Cooper, “My message tonight is: help is on the way, real tangible help, money in your pockets… and it is going directly to the people.” Rep. Jayapal also says it was a very big tactical mistake for the Republicans who didn't back the stimulus bill. Plus, there’s a legal battle over the Texas governor lifting the state’s mask mandate. Austin Mayor Steve Adler speaks out against calls from the Texas attorney general for local officials to rescind orders requiring face masks. “We’re not going to rescind anything, we are going to continue to do what’s right,” Mayor Adler tells Anderson Cooper.

A source tells CNN that Democratic Senators have reached a deal to move forward with the Covid relief bill, agreeing to extend the enhanced unemployment insurance program through September 6 at $300 a week. Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin stalled the bill for hours while his Republican colleagues urged him to support a less generous plan on jobless benefits. In a 50-50 Senate with Vice President Kamala Harris as the tie-breaker, the Democrats can’t afford to lose even one vote. Democratic Sen. Jeff Merkley tells AC360 a “compromise has been forged.” Plus, a CNN analysis finds the U.S. could reach herd immunity by summer through vaccinations alone.

In Episode 25 behind the Secret Door, Alicia and Frances will continue their discussion about Biden's first 100 days in office. In this particular episode, they will be going over Biden's current plan to tackle COVID. Biden currently has a $1.9 trillion dollar relief proposal. In this proposal, a third stimulus check of $1,400 would go towards those who qualify. There is a cutoff for the amount of income made in order to receive the stimulus check in full, but this is to ensure that those who need the money will receive it. However, in this stimulus check adult dependents could potentially be eligible, unlike the previous two checks. The bill would also extend the unemployment benefit to $400 and last until the end of August. Biden also proposed paid sick leave to those who do not receive it from their employers. Alicia greatly appreciates the help Biden is trying to give to the unemployed and Frances agrees that help should be sent to those who do still need it. Thankfully, Frances has been lucky enough to where she feels she should not be given money and thinks it should go towards someone more deserving. However, at the end of the episode, Alicia did have some updates on her guilty pleasures. For Tik Tok, she recommends @yourpal_Austin for funny videos. She also had a preacher and teacher that she follows that talk about the current issues with the Bible. For the Bachelor nation, she is up in arms about the current lack of respect to the diversity by having the producers not allow Rachel to come forward with a statement of apology for her former actions. These actions include going to a plantation for a Southern Belle party; confederate flags and men dressed up as Confederate soldiers were present and pictured. The host of the Bachelor went on former Bachelorette Rachel's podcast and he dismissed her concerns. He is now in talks about potentially being replaced for his actions. Tune into the show to find out more about the potential of the COVID proposal, France's latest gardening, and the gender swapped Twilight book Alicia recommends.

After months of inaction and halting negotiations, Congress's $900 billion COVID economic relief package is "too little, too late." William Gale argues that while the bill makes a good start at getting relief to the American people, it still leaves a lot for the next Congress and Biden administration to address.
