Nonpartisan election administrator targeted in Texas county

Some Republican lawmakers and Trump supporters across the country continue to claim the 2020 election was stolen from former President Donald Trump. In one Texas county that Trump won in a landslide, GOP officials are taking aim at a nonpartisan election administrator. Jeremy Schwartz, an investigative reporter for the ProPublica-Texas Tribune Investigative Initiative, joins CBSN's "Red & Blue" anchor Elaine Quijano with the details.

GOP blocks bill to avert shutdown and default

Senate Republicans blocked a bill to keep the U.S. government open and also prevent a federal debt default, but the Senate could bring the funding measure up for another vote later this week without a debt-ceiling extension, which isn't needed until mid-October. Congressional Democrats are also hoping to pass at least part of President Biden's domestic agenda, which contains more than $4 trillion in spending over two bills. CBS News' Laura Podesta reports on the developments in Washington, and CBS News congressional reporter Zak Hudak joins CBSN AM to discuss.

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.
