Omicron Spread in Europe & The Future of Biden’s Build Back Better Plan

U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson confirmed today that at least one patient infected with the new omicron variant of Covid-19 has died in the country. In a televised statement yesterday, Johnson warned Britain faces a “tidal wave” of omicron infections. Dr. Scott Gottlieb, former FDA commissioner and CNBC contributor, discusses the latest developments surrounding the worrisome omicron coronavirus variant and says the world should take notice. The biggest question looming over Capitol Hill is whether the Senate will pass President Joe Biden’s $1.7 trillion economic safety net and climate bill. CNBC’s Ylan Mui reports Senators will have just two weeks to meet their self-imposed Christmas deadline. Former U.S. Congresswoman Donna Edwards and Mick Mulvaney, former acting White House chief of staff, also discuss Biden’s Build Back Better bill and what it means for the U.S. economy. Plus, a critical software flaw and Peloton firing back at its portrayal in the ‘Sex and the City’ reboot.
