President Biden is departing for his first trip to the Middle East as president Tuesday. It is delicate diplomacy for an administration that's pledged to put human rights first, but is also balancing Middle East realities, especially in Saudi Arabia. That's where the president will spend Friday and Saturday. Nick Schifrin reports from Jerusalem, where the president will visit tomorrow.
