Capitol Hill battles, Nazi homeschooling network, Fentanyl in fake pills

Published 2 years, 11 months ago
Description

Congress votes to remove Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar from the House Foreign Affairs Committee. The panel discusses Speaker McCarthy’s justification for the move, and if for some for some Republicans, it could be personal. Plus, the Ohio Education Department is investigating an alleged white supremacist, pro-Nazi homeschooling network - why the state may not be able to do a thing about it. And, the DEA says more than 99% of the 50 million pills it confiscated in 2022 are fake and contain Fentanyl.

Also tonight: Republican Rep. George Santos calls on Congress to fight bigotry and anti-Semitism after repeatedly and falsely claiming to be Jewish, the Pentagon is tracking a suspected Chinese spy balloon over the US, Disney launches a new doll collection with photographers who empower children of color, an Iranian couple is sentenced to prison for dancing in the streets, and are new inclusive terms actually backfiring and alienating people?
