Elizabeth Preza, staff writer at Raw Story, discusses the controversy surrounding the release of the secret memo. We talk about Democrats calling for House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes (R-CA) to step down and what this could mean for the 2018 midterms.
Preza discusses the risks President Trump and his administration are taking if this memo turns out to be a "dud," as some are reporting. The FBI is completely against the memo's release due to "grave concerns" about its content. Preza talks about what impact the memo could have on Mueller's investigation.
President Joe Biden has met with new House Speaker Mike Johnson at the White House. Johnson was joined by Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries as they discussed Biden's request for nearly $106 billion for Israel, Ukraine and other national security needs.
