About the episode

After law enforcement officers halted a gunman from rushing the Washington Hilton ballroom where President Trump, members of the cabinet, congressional leaders and journalists convened to celebrate the First Amendment and White House correspondents, President Donald J. Trump speaks with Norah O'Donnell in a broadcast exclusive about the experience and what it signals about the state of the country. O’Donnell meets Mr. Trump at the White House for an in-depth conversation. Former Senator Ben Sasse, a conservative Republican from Nebraska – and once among the most popular politicians in the state – speaks with correspondent Scott Pelley about his battle with pancreatic cancer and his hopes for what America can be. Reflecting on politics, community, technology, and faith, Sasse offers meaningful lessons from his own life in hopes of building a better tomorrow. What Kentucky is to thoroughbred horses, Belgium is to elite racing pigeons. Correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi reports as prizes in international competitions have climbed into the millions, the best birds have become targets for organized crime. Insiders call the network of break-in artists and smugglers “the pigeon mafia.” To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policyLearn more about your ad choices.
