Summit of the Americas: Joe Biden's agenda overshadowed by invite controversy

The Summit of the Americas comes as thousands of migrants fleeing hardship have set off from southern Mexico, hoping to reach the US border. More than 4,000 people are thought to have joined the caravan, which activists say could be the biggest this year.
