House passes debt ceiling bill in win for McCarthy

The GOP-controlled House voted to pass a bill that would raise the nation’s debt ceiling as the country approaches its default deadline as soon as this summer. President Biden says he’s happy to meet with House Speaker Kevin McCarthy but not on whether or not the debt limit gets extended, adding that's "not negotiable."  Republican Rep. Nancy Mace was initially holding out on the bill but ended up changing her vote. She joins AC360 to discuss how McCarthy was able to convince her to vote yes. Plus, The New York Times is reporting that private messages sent by Tucker Carlson that were redacted from legal filings in the Dominion case showed him making highly offensive remarks that went beyond what he was saying on his nightly show on Fox News. Times' writer Jim Rutenberg tells Anderson Cooper how the decision to fire the Carlson was viewed by the Murdoch family.
