  • Why Talk of 'Climate Hushing’ is Getting Louder
    2026/06/24
    A new report from global energy think tank Ember found that solar generated more US energy than coal in May 2026 for the first time on record. It comes at a time when the Trump administration has been actively hostile towards the development of wind and solar projects, despite a growing need for more electricity as more AI data centers come online. So, is this a minor blip, or a sea change? And is the current political climate making talk of climate change taboo on the campaign trail?

  • Sen. Adam Schiff on Being a Trump Target, Graham Platner, and How Democrats Rebuild
    2026/06/21
    Democratic Sen. Adam Schiff of California has long been a target of President Donald Trump dating back to Trump’s first impeachment trial. Now he is reportedly under investigation by Trump’s Justice Department for mortgage fraud (allegations Schiff denies). In a conversation recorded live at the Cascade PBS Ideas Festival, Schiff explains how he is preparing for possible legal action, how Democrats should respond if they take back the House of Representatives in the midterms, and if they have the right leadership in place to effectively push back against what he sees as a corrupt administration. --- Guest: Sen.

  • Will We Ever See a Real-Life ‘Disclosure Day’?
    2026/06/14
    The recent Pentagon releases of declassified files detailing sightings of Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAPs) has piqued the interest of UFO enthusiasts and curious Americans alike. But despite increased transparency, a lack of hard evidence remains. Why do many of us want to believe there is intelligent life out there somewhere? And if scientists found that evidence, would we even accept it? --- Guest: Adam Frank, University of Rochester astrophysicist Host: David Rind Producer: Paola Ortiz Showrunner: Felicia Patinkin Photo By: Mario Tama/Getty Images Learn more about your ad choices.

  • How UFC Scored a White House Fight Night
    2026/06/10
    A scheduled UFC fight at the White House on Sunday is being billed as a kickoff for America’s 250th birthday celebrations. But some critics are calling it a disrespectful money grab, and those who follow combat sports closely believe it is just an extension of a relationship that has served both sides financially and politically for years. So beyond the optics of the octagon, what purpose does this event serve? And can it help Trump and the GOP win back young male voters? For more: Young men are leaving Trump.

  • Inside the Turmoil at 60 Minutes
    2026/06/07
    A dramatic shakeup of 60 Minutes under CBS editor-in-chief Bari Weiss culminated this week in the firing of longtime correspondent Scott Pelley. He, and some other employees who have recently left, have accused management of editorial interference in an effort to curry favor with the Trump administration (claims CBS denies). So is this a long overdue shakeup of an aging medium, or a sign of corporate media meddling? And what does it mean for the rest of the content we consume on TV? --- Guest: Brian Stelter, CNN Chief Media Analyst Host: David Rind Producer: Paola Ortiz Showrunner: Felicia Patinkin Photo By: Charles Sykes/Invision/AP/File Learn more about your ad choices.

  • FEMA Is in Tatters. Here Comes Hurricane Season.
    2026/06/03
    Early on in his second term, President Donald Trump called for the Federal Emergency Management Agency to be eliminated. Now, the White House appears to be cleaning up the mess left behind at the agency by former DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, who sources say fostered a culture of fear, distrust, and operational chaos (an official who claims he teleported to a Waffle House also made an appearance). But with Atlantic hurricane season upon us, will FEMA be ready to answer the call after the next big disaster?
