What extreme heat reveals about climate change

More than 1,500 record-high temperatures have been recorded in the U.S. this month, according to NOAA. And a new study finds a definitive link between this extreme heat and climate change.

And, Speaker McCarthy’s quiet winning streak. Guests: Axios' Andrew Freedman, Barak Ravid and Josh Kraushaar.
