Migrants trapped at the Poland-Belarus border

Tensions are rising in Eastern Europe, on the border between Belarus and Poland. Yesterday, Polish police began using water cannons and tear gas against people trying to cross into the country. For weeks now, thousands of migrants from Iraq, Syria and Afghanistan have been waiting at the border in an attempt to enter the European Union, in what EU leaders are calling a manufactured crisis. Plus, the latest on treating COVID with a pill. And, the International Olympic Committee takes on gender identity. Guests: Axios' Zach Basu, Tina Reed, and Ina Fried.
