Shownotes Transcript

12 million Americans have lost their unemployment benefits, eviction moratoriums are set to expire at the end of the year, and the government could shut down Monday night as President Trump still has not signed the coronavirus relief and government spending package. Instead, he's focusing his ire on GOP senators who are not backing his ongoing attempts to overturn the election results.

Plus, a grim Covid-19 milestone -- 1 in 1,000 Americans have died from the disease. Illinois' director of public health details how her state is preparing for a potential post-holiday surge in new cases.

And, Vice President-elect Kamala Harris is set to be the most powerful woman in Washington come January 20. What will her role in the Biden Administration look like?

On today's show: CNN's Kaitlan Collins and Josh Dawsey of the Washington Post; Politico's Natasha Korecki and Michael Shear of the New York Times; CNN's Natasha Chen and former Philadelphia Police Chief Charles Ramsey; Illinois Public Health Director Ngozi Ezike; CNN's Jasmine Wright.
