The officers there, that day. Assaulted, that day. And we are going to play it for you, uncut. It s brutal and it s ugly, and it contains profanity. And as you watch it, remember, the majority of republicans in congress do not want a full investigation into this. And some have even said, publicly, that what you are about to see didn t actually happen. Fucking piece of shit. [ inaudible ] fuck. Come on! take your shit off! take your shit off ! these are people carrying trump flags, and confederatebattle flags overrunning a police line outside the capitol. Trump supporters, violent ones. People willing to beat and trample members of law enforcement. People, willing to assault police officers, once they got inside. This, too, is new video. It s a different angle and footage you probably already seen of one officer getting crushed in a doorway. This is what is now being whitewashed. And the denial is now so deep, among the gop, that 21 house republicans could not these folks could not even
Mike memoli is there. We are joined by emlynn farkus and we are joined by rick stengle. He was part of the biden transition team. Jim messina joins us as well, former white house deputy of chief under former president obama and ceo of the messina group. What a power panel. Mike, set the scene. Turkey is a nato ally. Our relationship has been strained. How significant is this oneonone meeting? what are you listening for? reporter: chris, i have been calling this the sleeper meeting of this entire trip. For all the focus on wednesday s meeting with vladimir putin, for the focus on the pictures we have been seeing of the western leaders welcoming, as french president macron said, back into the group president biden, as he is making his first trip as president and for all the justified focus and attention yesterday on that meeting at windsor palace with queen elizabeth ii, in terms of the scheme of relationships that biden has with so many world leaders going back, this is really one of th
I also talk to zachary karabell about her new book on american capitalism. And we ll explore why the arctic may be the next great region of global discord. But first here is my take. It is been the same way for decades. Every time violence between the israelis and palestinians erupts, governments around the world urge deescalation and a ceasefire agreement is reached and experts warn the situation cannot continue like this. But it has and it will. Ultimately, this is not a problem that could be resolved through power. Where the political or military, it could only be resolved through moral persuasion. The pattern of violence obscured a seismic shift that has taken place over the last few decades. Israel is now the superpower of the middle east. And an institute at a university recently laid out the disparities. Israel s per capita gdp dwarves that of the neighbors. 14 times that of egypt and eight times that of iran and six times of that of lebanon and double of that saudi arabia. They

A similar way that you see in the us, where you have this hard right that is intransigent, netanyahu, prime minister netanyahu, playing to that franchise, and so it really builds on this. I don t know if i agree withjonathan s perspective on this potential civil war let s not call it that, let s be careful not to overstate it but this internal clash is in many ways the crisis. The israeli. Fight with hamas is something we ve seen before, in 2014. This new dimension of internal strife, while it may not reflect, asjonathan notes, the broader feelings ofjewish israelis and arab israelis, the kind of horrific violence we are seeing, person against person, within israel, has the ability to undo a lot that has been built over the last decades, in trying to make israel a multicultural state and to include arab israelis in part of the democracy. Clearly not a complete project by any means, but this is a huge setback. And even netanyahu, who likes to pit one side against the other, has reco
