Has Manchin Doomed the Build Back Better Plan?: Senator Joe Manchin of West Virginia was always going to be the last Democrat to get on board with President Biden’s $2.2 trillion climate, social spending and tax bill. But the White House was confident that a compromise could be reached. On Sunday, that confidence was shattered: In an interview on Fox News, Mr. Manchin essentially declared that he could not support the bill as written, and he indicated that he was done negotiating all together. Where does this leave Mr. Biden’s signature domestic policy goal? Guest: Emily Cochrane, a correspondent for The New York Times, based in Washington. by The Daily

Why Mexico Is Suing U.S. Gunmakers: For years, Mexico has been gripped by horrific violence as drug cartels battle each other and kill civilians. In the last 15 years alone, homicides have tripled. The violence, the Mexican government says, is fueled, in part, by American guns. Now Mexico is bringing a lawsuit against 10 gun manufacturers in a U.S. federal court, accusing them of knowingly facilitating the sale of guns to drug cartels in the country. How did the situation get to this point, and what arguments are being mounted by the Mexican government? Guest: Natalie Kitroeff, a correspondent covering Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean for The New York Times. by The Daily

Why did the commission fail and what is taking place instead? Guest: Luke Broadwater, a congressional reporter for The New York Times. by The Daily
