talking about the case over the weekend. it comes as trump s rivals for the 2024 nomination rally to his defense. some of them do. we will have the comments. some of them do. some don t. some do and don t. mixed bag. you know? what is the strategy there? sad thick. the latest from ukraine with the counteroffensive claiming small victories over the russian forces. also ahead, an update on the i- 95 collapse. a disaster that has shut down the section of one of the busiest highways in america. good lord. good morning, and welcome to morning joe. if is monday, june 12th. with us we have the host of way too early, eddie claude jr., and richard hoss joining us. richard, jonathan, so much news. we cannot talk about sports. is there a minute? not even a minute to talk about what happened at yankee stadium or the stadium as they call it. the red sox taking 2 of 3. we don t have time to talk about it? we don t have time to talk about it. the little league team
and you just brought up a great point. also fighting islamo phobia and beyond. ignorance is the enemy of all of us and leaders who promote ignorance is dangerous and so we re not going to focus on bringing together a few grass tops leaders. how do we invest in the grassroots. how do we build the next generation. focusing on hope, not hate. yousef, based upon that, would you say a little bit about the progress or the lack of it dealing with textbooks in the arab world, in places like egypt, most populous country in the arab world or saudi arabia or in places like pakistan, where do you see the movement to effect the thinking of young people on this set of issues? so, you re asking the right question, richard. this is exactly what our partnership with the a.l. is designed to address. and i think this progress, spos
yeah. i think that is the battle over if things go bad enough, what then happens. i take it much more seriously, joe, than i used to a few months ago. we re going to be asking ourselves every day, checking the temperature of something in the oven, how is it going. you measure this in months, not in days. so in a funny sort of way, let s see where they are in a couple of months and whether there is a trend here. do we see whether the russians are beginning to collapse or do we see the russians in defensive positions, even if they lose a little bit, could essentially hold the line. that is the question. by the way, because i m a conservative, i believe things could always get worse. if you want to know how they could get worse, look at the guy running the wagner group. that is how things could be far worse than vladimir putin. he makes putin look like a sane actor. to your point, u.s. officials
