US media split on airing Trump's speech heavy with unproven claims

Three months ahead of the US midterms, US President Donald Trump gave a half-hour speech laden with unproven claims regarding election fraud, regarding the security of elections in the country and repeating misinformation regarding fraud back in 2020. He also attacked US broadcasters that refused to show his speech live, threatening to remove their broadcasting licence. FRANCE 24's Fraser Jackson tells us more from Washington.
