Summary

We're closer to a debt ceiling deal, but not there yet. Treasury Secretary Yellen gave House negotiators four more days to avoid a damaging default. But even if they make a deal tomorrow morning, can they get it done in time? Plus, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is not being shy about taking on the former president, ripping him on the border, calling him a big spender, and criticizing his Covid-19 policies. No other Republican in the Trump-era has been able to walk that tight rope. Can DeSantis? And, whenever you go in the water you’re never more than 200 - 300 feet away from a shark at any time. Wildlife Biologist and host of ABC’s “Wildlife Nation” Jeff Corwin tells John King what we need to know to avoid danger.
