About this episode

Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi and key donor George Clooney raise fresh doubts about President Joe Biden’s fitness for office. As Israel steps up its offensive across the Gaza Strip, Hamas says the intensifying campaign puts resumed ceasefire talks in jeopardy. The firebrand of France’s leftist coalition, Jean-Luc Melenchon, poses a problem for future governing plans. And New York City finally discovers the wheelie bin.
