Is the U.S. facing another surge of COVID-19? We hear from Dr. Anthony Fauci, and former FDA Commissioner Dr. Scott Gottlieb about how the Delta variant will affect the road to recovery.

Charlie D'Agata reports from Kabul on the potential threat to Afghans posed by the Taliban. Former Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson weighs in on how to handle a new era of cyber threats and what comes next as the US exits Afghanistan. Coast-to-coast, the country is facing extreme weather. While the East Coast is plagued by severe storms, the west is getting hotter. Mark Strassmann reports from Las Cruces, New Mexico on record-breaking triple-digit temperatures. Plus, United Airlines CEO Scott Kirby joins to discuss the future of the airline industry.
