They also discuss two important historical anniversaries: Richard Nixon visiting Mao Zedong in Beijing 50 years ago, and the assassination of Malcolm X 57 years ago. The panel also covers the far right convoy in Canada, a shooting at a protest in Portland, Daunte Wright’s killer's sentencing, methane plumes seen from space, and more.
