Tucker, Putin and the NSA

Last Monday, Tucker Carlson went in front of his several million viewers and made an extraordinary accusation: that the NSA was spying on his emails. The NSA issued a rare, public denial that Carlson had been targeted. Plus, turmoil in Haiti. And, Dr. Ibram X. Kendi on the unfair expectations placed on athletes.
