I'm very okay with President Trump, meeting with President Putin in Alaska.

I think everybody knows that how this war ends can be a good thing or a bad thing.

If it ends in a way, it looks like that Putin's overly rewarded, there goes Taiwan.

You can't end a war without talking. I do hope that Zelensky can be

part of the process. I'll leave that up to the White House. But I come on your show a good bit.

I want to be honest with you. Ukraine's not going to evict every Russian, and Russia's not going to

keep. So there'll be some land swabs at the end.

Republican Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina discussing President Trump's

planned meeting this week with Vladimir Putin.

We'll discuss what's on the line for all parties.

Also ahead, an update on Israel's new military offensive in Gaza, amid growing

condemnation from abroad and from some in Israel. Plus, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi has

appointed a, quote, special attorney to investigate Democrat Senator Adam Schiff and New York Attorney General Letitia James.

We'll explain what the DOJ is looking into.

And President Trump appears to be on the verge of deploying National Guard troops in Washington, D.C.

We'll tell you why and talk about that.

Good morning.

And welcome to morning, Joe. It's Monday, everyone, August 11th. With us, we have the co-host of our fourth hour contributing writer at the Atlantic, Jonathan Lemire, President Emeritus of the Council on Foreign Relations, Richard Haas, columnist and associate editor for the Washington Post, David Ignatius, and managing

editor at the bulwark, Sam Stein.

Sam, I'm going to need to know more about that PowerPoint presentation that you presented

to your wife that convinced her to marry you.

No, I was being sarcastic.
