The Daily Signal - What You Need to Know About Jacob Blake, Kyle Rittenhouse, and the Kenosha Violence
Jacob Blake, 29, was shot seven times in the back by a police officer Aug. 23 after police responded to a report of a domestic dispute in Kenosha, Wisconsin. Kyle Rittenhouse, 17, is accused in the fatal shootings of two men who his lawyers say attacked the teen Aug. 26 as he was trying to protect property from rioters in the wake of the Blake shooting.
What is the media alleging about Rittenhouse, and what are the known facts? Amy Swearer, a legal fellow in the Edwin Meese Center for Legal and Judicial Studies at The Heritage Foundation, joins "The Daily Signal Podcast"to discuss.
We also cover these stories:
- President Trump visits Kenosha, despite the wishes of state and local politicians who asked him not to come.
- Chad Wolf, acting secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, tells Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler in a letter that the federal government will get involved if local leaders don’t quell the ongoing violence since the May 25 death of George Floyd in Minneapolis.
- The Department of Justice is looking into possible criminal activity by the Black Lives Matter organization.

Ologies with Alie Ward - Cervidology (DEER) Part 1 with Rhiannons Kirton & Jakopak
What IS a deer? And an elk? And a moose? And a Rhiannon? One thing they all have in common: cervidology. Buckle up for some spirited, laughy chatter with a duo of deer scientists. They dish all about Welsh mythology and their field trips into the remote, gorgeous wilderness. They’ll explain what to do if you find a fawn, if you should feed backyard deer, what deer population numbers are like, hunting, ungulates, being a first-generation scientist and more. This episode is a quick overview and then the real fireworks are next week: in Part 2 we answer some questions with BANANAS facts that will stay burned in your brain until the end of time. Trust me.

The Gist - Is Anybody Paying Attention?
On the Gist, Trump visits Kenosha.
In the interview, the Wall Street Journal’s Gerald Seib is here to discuss his new book, We Should Have Seen It Coming: From Ronald Reagan to Trump—A Front-Row Seat to a Political Revolution. He and Mike talk about how the GOP has changed since the time of Reagan and paved the way for Trump’s ascendence. They also touch on why Mitch McConnell keeps blocking relief packages, and how worried we should be about the future.
In the spiel, not paying attention to politics.

Consider This from NPR - Getting Back To School Isn’t Easy For Anyone — But It’s A Lot Harder For Some
It's September and millions of kids are going back to school this month. Millions more already have. And while some students are beginning the new year in physical classrooms, many are still learning in online classrooms that schools transitioned to when the pandemic began in March.
Remote learning isn't easy for anyone, but it's especially challenging for children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and other learning disabilities. NPR's Jon Hamilton reports on the challenges facing these students and their parents, who are often required to become educators to make it work.
Not all parents have the privilege of being able to help their children with remote learning though. Many students also face the challenge of logging on for school without reliable Internet. NPR's Anya Kamenetz and WWNO's Aubri Juhasz report on "learning hubs" that offer free child care and additional learning resources — but only for a lucky few.
