Summary
It looks like Gina Haspel WILL be the next director of the CIA. Yesterday, Sen Mark Warner and Sen Heidi Heitkamp both said they would vote yes on her confirmation. What a disgrace that Democrats can't even take a stand on torture.
Will the summit with North Korea fall apart? Maybe. Kim Jong-Un has shut down talks with South Korea and the summit with the United States is on the rocks.
The fallout from the Israelis attack on Palestinian protesters continues to build with Nikki Haley blaming Hamas yet again.
Plus, some important results from primaries! We talk about them Jon Allen from NBC News and Daniel Strauss from Politico.
Plus, we talk about the lessons of 1968 and the legacy of RFK with Rick Allen, editor of the new book, RFK.
