On today’s show: Donald Trump may be getting talking points from the movie Sicario 2.

Sam breaks down the new proposed standards for asylum seekers and how they’d further family separation and white supremacy. Kamala Harris backs down on m4a, resists criminal justice reform; Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor calls her out. John Bolton’s notepad: “5,000 troops Colombia.” John Bolton says Venezuela is part of the “troika of tyranny.” Ro Khanna explains the fallacy of US foreign intervention and regime change on Democracy Now.

On the fun half: Chris Christie spills the tea on the Kushner family. Dave Rubin freaks out over abortion bill, sets himself up for anti-choice pivot. Warren explains her wealth tax to Chris Hayes.
