Some inmates are refusing tests, making it difficult to track the severity of the outbreak.

What A Day - Aid In America
Emergency unemployment benefits included in the CARES Act are set to expire at the end of the month. With that deadline looming, and the health crisis raging, we look at what the next potential aid package might include.

The Daily Signal - Frederick Douglass Statue-Toppling Is About ‘Creating Chaos’
A Frederick Douglass statue is one of the latest victims in a long string of monument defacement over the past several weeks.
On the 168th anniversary of Douglass’ famous speech, "What to the Slave Is the Fourth of July?,” his statue was torn from its base in Rochester, New York and significantly damaged.
The Rev. Dean Nelson, chairman of The Frederick Douglass Foundation, joins the show to discuss the statue's defacement, the significance of Douglass’ 1852 speech and what the abolitionist might say to us today were he still with us.
We also cover these stories:
- The Supreme Court ruled unanimously that states can’t keep their representatives in the electoral college from ignoring voters’ wishes when they elect a president.
- The Dakota Access pipeline is being shut down.
- President Trump weighed in on NASCAR'S decision to ban the confederate flag.
Be sure to check out The Frederick Douglass Foundation website!
Enjoy the show!
