Guest: Ryan Cooper, The American Prospect
The U.S. has been hit with a wave of deadly flash floods in Texas, North Carolina and New Mexico over the last five days. RYAN COOPER of the American Prospect explains a new analysis showing that climate-fueled disasters cost the U.S. nearly a trillion dollars last year alone. Cooper also delves into many under-reported absurdities that were inserted into Trump's and Republicans' tax cut bill, and its negative impacts on energy, the economy, the climate, and Medicare. Plus a fact-check of Trump's 'Cabinet Meeting Theatre' that was filled with ridiculous falsehoods.
