First look:   Joe Manchin says he can support election reform bill if... While Biden was away, Kamala hosted a ladies-only dinner party Texas and Florida are working together to secure the border Biden snaps then apologizes to reporter after post-presser tirade

Uh-oh...Is Joe Manchin signaling a change on Dems' election bill? Headline: Manchin circulates list of demands for voting legislation The First take: We have to wonder what Democrats are offering to secure Senator Manchin's "yes" vote on the "For the People Act?"  READ IT ALL HERE BONUS: See Manchin's full list of demands

While Joe's Away, Kamala will play Headline: Harris hosts dinner for female senators, but border talk missing from the menu The First take: Many were called, most showed up. With Joe Biden out of the country, the vice president had a "party." Well, it was a dinner party meant to bring all of the female seniors together. Two Republican senators (Cindy Hyde-Smith, Cynthia Lummis) sent their regrets and one Democrat (Kyrsten Sinema) skipped what we're sure was a scintillating evening talking about everything but the crisis on our southern border. GET THE WHOLE STORY HERE Bonus: Kamala's dinner party included her special hand-made cheese puffs

TX Gov shares details on new wall, FL Gov sending troops to help Headline: Abbott Announces Big Down Payment On Border Wall For Texas As DeSantis Sends Reinforcements The First take: We're thrilled to see Republican governors showing the rest of the country how to work around an oppressive federal government. Maybe we need a parody song... "Red states are doing it for themselves..." GET  THE STORY

Biden snaps at CNN reporter as worthless trip comes to a close Headline: "What The Hell?!" Biden Loses It After CNN Reporter Shouts Putin Question The First take: We're waiting for the White House to blame the heat for Joe's snippy exchange with a CNN reporter. We also find it surprising the president would verbally attack someone who works for the cable channel that employs the wife of his Israel ambassador nominee. (Seriously, Biden's pick for the Israel post is married to a high-ranking CNN exec.) CHECK OUT THE DETAILS Bonus: CNN gushes over Biden's handshake with Putin   Bonus: Left-wing reporter wonders if Biden is in the "wrong business"
