President Trump’s on-again-off-again summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is scheduled to happen on June 12 in Singapore. We preview with CNN international correspondent Will Ripley, who has made more than a dozen trips to North Korea. Also, we continue with our story on Dr. Daniel Grossman, who’s had to adjust to life in a wheelchair after a bike accident left him paralyzed from the waist down. He’s already back at work at the Mayo Clinic, less than a year after the injury. And the small-town Redwood Falls Gazette in Redwood, Minnesota, removed the online version of an obituary that went viral earlier this week. It read, in part, “She will not be missed by Gina and Jay, and they understand that this world is a better place without her.” That and more, in hour one of Here & Now’s June 7, 2018 full broadcast.
