Listen "Biden Visits the Rainforest"
Episode Synopsis
President Biden visited a nature reserve in Brazil to advocate for continued climate action in future administrations, urging support for his policies and implying that former President Trump should not reverse progress. Biden also authorized Ukraine to use long-range U.S. weapons inside Russia as tensions escalate, with reports of nearly 50,000 Russian troops moving to Kursk. Pete Hegseth, Trump’s pick for defense secretary, has reached a settlement with a woman who accused him of sexual assault, though he has not been charged. In Pennsylvania, a recount dispute is unfolding as some counties defy state Supreme Court directives. Meanwhile, Trump received a standing ovation at a UFC event in New York, accompanied by UFC president Dana White.
