US correspondent Ximena Bustillo joins Susie to look at the bipartisan deal to avert debt default and what it means for President Joe Biden to have managed to get it secured.
She'll talk about a new NPR/Ipsos poll on education that reveals some division between Republicans and Democrats over what kids are being taught, but a surprising consensus on how little teachers are being paid. And former Vice President Mike Pence has confirmed he'll run for the Republican nomination for President, up against his former boss.
