Guerrero is the fourth person to have been killed by ICE agents this year alone. The surge of violence is again igniting anger at Trump's aggressive immigration agenda, and the apparent lack of accountability for ICE agents. Maine Congresswoman Chellie Pingree joins the show from Washington DC to discuss.

Another ICE Killing Under Scrutiny

Fellow Senator Flake Remembers Lindsey Graham

At the NATO summit in Ankara, President Trump declares “love and unity” with allies, and Europe signals it is taking more responsibility for its own defense.

Bunch III responds to White House broadsides accusing the institution of having a “radical, activist ideology.” Will Ripley reports from Taiwan on China’s striking mock-up of a U.S. warship in the Xinjiang desert.

WHAT DOES AMERICA STAND FOR?

Senator Kamala Harris is named as the first Black female candidate for Vice President. It’s a historic choice for America, coming at a historic moment for the country. Christiane Amanpour is joined by Valerie Jarrett, former Senior Adviser to Barack Obama, to assess the presidential race, and the Biden-Harris ticket. Law enforcement issues have played a fundamental role in Harris’ career, and her presidential campaign. Civil Rights Activist DeRay Mckesson has previously challenged Harris on her record, and he discusses his take on Joe Biden’s new vice-presidential pick. Then, at this time of social upheaval and hyper partisan politics, perhaps it’s time for some lessons in “hopeful history”. Author Rutger Bregman joins Christiane to chat about his new book "Humankind:A Hopeful History”, and why believes that humans are innately good. And our Walter Isaacson speaks to journalist and author Kurt Andersen about the absence of fairness in America today. They talk about his new book "Evil Geniuses: The Unmaking of America: A Recent History” and the threat of hyper-capitalism in America.
