About this episode
The debt limit negotiations finish with a written bill just days until the U.S. runs out of money. President Biden and House Speaker McCarthy are rushing to sell the bill to their parties. Plus, an attack on Ukraine’s capitol city hours after a nighttime assault. Also, on this Memorial Day, an emotional reunion as a group of Vietnam veterans are reunited for the first time in decades after being prisoners of war held captive in bamboo tiger cages.
