Facebook's civil rights fail

This week, Facebook failed its own civil rights audit. The internal audit showed the social media company still hasn’t done enough to protect users from hate speech or crack down on fake information used to suppress voter turnout on its platform. Plus, the Trump administration wants schools to reopen for the fall, but school and local officials don't have clear guidance for how to make it safe or feasible. And, TikTok has become a tempting target for the U.S. administration's fight against China. Guests: Axios' Ina Fried, Caitlin Owens, and Mike Allen.
