On this politics edition of Encounter, John Fortier, resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute and Jim Kessler, senior vice president for policy at Third Way, join Carol Castiel to discuss prospects for the passage of two pending infrastructure bills, the resurgence of the Delta variant of Covid-19, and whether or not President Joe Biden may pay a political price for the chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan as he sought to end America’s military involvement in the 20-year war.
