Drama at the United Nations. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu took the podium today, but not before dozens of delegates walked out to a chorus of jeers and applause. Netanyahu defended Israel’s actions in Gaza, nearly two years after the Oct. 7 attacks. His appearance came as momentum has shifted inside the chamber, with countries like France and Saudi Arabia recently breaking with the U.S. and Israel to recognize Palestinian statehood. Host Brian Cheng is joined by NBC News foreign correspondent Matt Bradley from Israel. And, a former FBI director was indicted by a federal grand jury. James Comey is facing two counts: making a false statement and obstructing a congressional proceeding. The charges stem from testimony he gave to Congress in 2020, not from the Russia investigation that once put him at odds with President Trump. Comey has denied any wrongdoing and pushed back on the indictment last night on Instagram. NBC News senior legal correspondent Laura Jarrett breaks it all down.
