Biden's agenda hangs on Democratic unity

The U.S. appears to be on the brink of a major fiscal crisis and potential government shutdown as lawmakers scramble to pass key legislation. Senate Republicans blocked a bill that would've kept federal agencies funded through early December and raise the national debt limit, and moderate and progressive Democrats are clashing over President Biden's agenda. CBS News congressional correspondent Kris Van Cleave and CBS News chief White House correspondent Nancy Cordes joined CBSN with the latest developments.

FDA panel: Most don't need Pfizer boosters

A Food and Drug Administration advisory committee voted to recommend only people over the age of 65 or who are immunocompromised need third doses of the Pfizer vaccine. CBS News correspondent Jonathan Vigliotti reports the decision upends the Biden administration's plans to roll out a mass booster program Monday. Then, Dr. Hilary Fairbrother, an emergency medicine physician, joins CBSN's Lana Zak to explain what this vote means for the future of COVID-19 vaccine boosters.

Trump at Walter Reed for COVID-19 treatment

President Trump was flown to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center Friday night, out of what the White House called "an abundance of caution." Mr. Trump is said to be doing well, despite being fatigued and having a low-grade fever. His former aide, Kellyanne Conway, also recently tested positive for COVID-19 as well as his campaign manager Bill Stepien. Chip Reid reports on the latest developments since the president's COVID-19 diagnosis.

Fallout from Trump's COVID-19 hospitalization

Not since President Reagan was shot in an assassination attempt nearly 40 years ago has there been this level of concern over the president’s health. The White House has not been forthcoming about President Trump’s condition, but he was taken to Walter Reed medical center Friday after testing positive for COVID-19. CBS News senior political analyst John Dickerson joins "CBS This Morning: Saturday" to discuss what happens now that the president is in the hospital.

Controversy over COVID booster shot plan

Two senior U.S. vaccine regulators who are leaving the FDA have come out against the White House plan to roll out COVID-19 vaccine booster shots. A group of international scientists published research in The Lancet on Monday concluding that while a third dose is beneficial to the immunocompromised, the average person does not need it yet. Dr. Mark Kline, physician-in-chief at the Children's Hospital of New Orleans, joined CBSN to discuss the controversy.
