On today's "In the News" roundtable, Brian Becker, Esther Iverem, Nicole Roussell and Walter Smolarek discuss the Glasgow climate summit and Biden's capitulation to the right wing on his social program budget.

The Laughing Stock of the World: Why the world pities us and fears us
Warnings of violence before Jan. 6 precipitated the Capitol riot
The Demand for Money Behind Many Police Traffic Stops
