Pomp and circumstance for the French

President Biden is holding his first state dinner Thursday night at the White House, to welcome French President Emmanuel Macron. But more than a time to wine and dine, the visit will be an opportunity for the two presidents to discuss a number of critical issues. Plus, promising results for a new Alzheimer’s drug. And, how Boomers are making inflation worse. Guests: Axios' Dave Lawler, Neil Irwin, and Oriana González.
