The big deal with a big debt

President Trump routinely sows doubt in the credibility of elections in the United States — especially if he, or his allies, lose those votes.

We explore the risks to election integrity in these midterms and talk about how Congressional Democrats are preparing to respond.

What happens if Trump tries to mess with the midterms?

What's going on with vote-by-mail?

Griner, a prominent basketball player, had been convicted of bringing hash oil into the country. President Biden secured Griner's release by commuting the sentence of Russian arms dealer Viktor Bout. The president said Russia refused to release other Americans imprisoned in the country, including former Marine Paul Whelan who Russia convicted of espionage in 2018.
