The United States revealed new evidence that Russia meddled in the 2016 election ahead of Donald Trump’s meeting with Vladimir Putin on Monday, as laid out by Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein in the most recent indictments in the Mueller probe. Joy Reid and her panel discuss whether the U.S. president will confront Putin on this issue. Next: Donald Trump upended many norms of American foreign policy during the first days of his trip to Europe, reportedly blasting American allies, bringing chaos to the NATO summit, and suggesting that the United States would withdraw from NATO if other members do not increase their defense spending. Joy Reid and her panel discuss the repercussions of the president’s apparent undermining of Angela Merkel and Theresa May. Then: FBI agent Peter Strzok, who is accused of letting his personal views influence the Clinton emails and Russia investigations, was grilled by House Republicans during a nearly 10-hour hearing on Thursday. Joy Reid and her panel discuss whether this was a distraction from the indictment of 12 Russians in the Mueller probe. Plus: Donald Trump appeared to alienate our allies while in Europe leading up to his meeting with Vladimir Putin on Monday, a meeting multiple U.S. lawmakers are urging the White House to cancel in the wake of 12 Russians being indicted in the Mueller investigation. Joy Reid and her panel discuss the president continuing to speak positively about Putin despite these indictments further indicating that Russia meddled in the 2016 election. And: The Trump administration has stated that nearly half of migrant kids under five will not be reunited with their parents. Joy Reid and her panel discuss the irreparable human damage of the now-defunct child separation policy. Finally: Paula White, leader of Donald Trump’s evangelical advisory council, is being challenged by some faith leaders to a public debate about what the Bible really says, after claiming that Jesus may have been a refugee, ‘but it was not illegal.’ Rev. Dr. William Barber and Minister Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove join Joy Reid to discuss.
