In Russia, polls consistently show support for the war in Ukraine somewhere around 70%. But a recent independent study of Russians' opinions indicates the picture is more complex. We hear more from our correspondent in Moscow.
And in Ukraine, couples who are separated by the war can now propose and get married online over an app. The service is so popular there is a months-long wait for virtual ceremonies.
Ravi recaps the latest twists in the presidential race, from why the Harris campaign has unexpectedly proposed another debate to the Trump campaign’s reasons for dodging a rematch. He then hops on the polling rollercoaster to explain what the numbers reveal and why results from some states defy traditional expectations. Finally, he turns to the FBI’s newly released crime data, the partisan battle over what the data reveals, and how strategic ad wars have helped shape public perception on the topic.
Former West Point professor Mike Kofoed then joins Ravi to discuss his eye-opening study on the effectiveness of remote learning on cadets during the COVID-19 pandemic. They examine what the study’s findings mean for students at typical colleges and K-12 schools, why conventional wisdom about online education might be wrong, and how the results should inform the future of education.
