Biden expected to take on racial inequality

President Biden is heading to Oklahoma to mark 100 years since the horrific Tulsa Race Massacre, which is considered one of the worst displays of racist violence in American history. He's expected to unveil a series of new measures aimed at helping communities of color across the U.S., especially when it comes to housing and economic policies. CBS News correspondent Omar Villafranca reports from Tulsa, and CBS News senior White House and political correspondent Ed O'Keefe joined CBSN with the latest developments.

Voting rights 100 days into Biden's term

A nonprofit with ties to President Biden's 2020 campaign is launching a voting rights initiative as GOP leaders in several states seek to tighten voting access. Andra Gillespie, an associate professor of political science at Emory University, and Chuck Rocha, a former senior adviser to Bernie Sanders' presidential campaigns, join Elaine Quijano on CBSN's "Red & Blue" to discuss the state of voting rights 100 days into Mr. Biden's term.

Trump optimistic on GOP's future

Former President Trump said at the Republican National Committee's donor retreat over the weekend that he's optimistic Republicans will retake Congress in 2022 and reclaim the White House in 2024 and reiterated falsehoods about voter fraud in 2020. A new report from the Center for Election Innovation and Research, first obtained by CBS News, finds that more than 70% of states offer all voters access to a mail-in ballot and early voting. CBS News political reporter Adam Brewster joins CBSN AM to discuss.
