The Treasury Department has put out a report about a Chinese money laundering network that has moved billions of dollars through U.S. banks, and how that money is being used to support criminals like Mexican drug cartels. WSJ reporter Dylan Tokar joins to discuss how the network functions, and what the Trump administration is planning to do about it. Plus, Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook files a lawsuit over President Trump’s attempt to fire her.
