CNN: Congress has officially passed Biden's monumental COVID-19 stimulus, the American Rescue Plan, which could halve childhood poverty in the U.S., among many other things.

CBS NEWS: VP Harris announces $250M to help address COVID-19 response inequities.

EXTRATV: It's revolting that Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Florida) is jumping on the #FreeBritney bandwagon. And yes, it does matter who your champions are.
JOE.MY.GOD.: Nothing says OHIO to me like 77-year-old Fox News provocateur Geraldo Rivera. I guess forcing himself on Bette Midler doesn't count as a sexual assault since they're both famous and we already know it happened?!
