Summary

President Trump ratchets up his fear-mongering, election lies, and revenge on disloyal Republicans. Plus, the U.S. strikes Iran in response to an attack on a cargo ship in the Strait of Hormuz. And the return of the Velshi Banned Book Club. Hayes Brown, Charles Coleman Jr., David Rohde, and Isabel Wilkerson all join Ali Velshi on The 11th Hour.
