Why Swalwell, Gonzalez Are Exiting Congress, and How Trump Got Israel to Negotiate with Lebanon

from Here's the Scoop · host ryan nobles, gordon lubold, yasmin vossoughian

Reps. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif, and Tony Gonzalez, R-Texas, are giving up their seats in Congress following separate allegations of sexual misconduct. NBC News Chief Capitol Hill Correspondent Ryan Nobles discusses why the rumors of alleged misconduct went unchecked for so long and whether their departures could force change in the halls of Congress. Then, NBC News national security reporter Gordon Lubold goes over how President Trump pressured Israel to meet with Lebanon for the first high-level talks between the countries in more than 30 years – and why the outcome could have an impact on the negotiations in the Iran war.
