“Legendary entertainer Stevie Van Zandt had harsh words for Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) on Tuesday.
MSNBC’s Brian Williams interviewed Van Zandt about his new memoir, Unrequited Infatuations and asked him of what he thought of the job Democrats have done governing the country.

And I just — I just — I’m not happy with what’s going on here.”
Van Zandt specifically mentioned his dissatisfaction with Attorney General Merrick Garland.
“I just keep asking, where are the tough good guys, you know? And I just can’t find them, Brian, and we need them now,” he said…”
