Marketplace All-in-One - When the government shuts down, tribal communities get the shaft

The effects of government shutdowns are felt particularly deeply in tribal communities across the United States. That’s because the federal government has a constitutional obligation to fund services in Indian Country. But when the government closes, tribal nations are left to pick up the tab. Marketplace’s Savannah Peters joins Kimberly to explain how tribal communities get caught up in the federal government’s dysfunctional budget process and why tribal leaders argue this needs to change.

The Bulwark Podcast - JB Pritzker and Franklin Foer: Like Living in an Authoritarian Regime

After a court temporarily blocked the deployment of Guard troops in Illinois, ICE agents began ramping up their operations around Chicagoland. They are now demanding that residents produce their papers—particularly if they have brown skin. Officers stand outside churches holding Spanish-language Mass or they go into tourist areas to confront people, including U.S. Citizens. If someone doesn’t have an ID with them, they’ll be detained. The power-hungry officials around Trump, including Stephen Miller, are likely behind the enhanced menacing. Meanwhile in Israel, the resilience of the surviving hostages—after a sustained campaign of deprivation—is worthy of celebration. Plus, the Hamas executions of Gazans, our American pharoah’s comfort with Middle East strongmen, and even Newsmax says the new Pentagon press rules are a bridge too far.

Gov. JB Pritzker and The Atlantic‘s Frank Foer join Tim Miller.

1A - The Atlantic Celebrates America’s 250th Birthday

As part of a special issue this November, The Atlantic tasked writers and historians with looking at the country’s founding era to find out what America’s political thinkers valued at its beginning.

The goal is to remind people in the U.S. about the abstract ideas enshrined in the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and other important revolutionary documents. And, how reconnecting with those ideals might help us as we struggle to keep American democracy together 250 years later.

We discuss this edition of The Atlantic with two of its contributing writers, hear about why the founding of the country is relevant today, and where we might be going next.

And we want to hear from you. How would you fill in the blanks for these four statements?

1. “At the founding of the United States, some of the country’s most important political values were BLANK.”

2. “After 250 years of U.S. history, I would describe the country’s *track record* of following through on those values and ideals as BLANK.”

3. “Right now, an outside observer would likely look at our politics and say we value BLANK.”

4. “When it comes to the United States as a country over the next decade or the next century, I want to see BLANK.”

Global News Podcast - Violence continues in Gaza despite peace deal

The day after President Trump signed off his peace plan in Egypt - what now for Gaza? Hospitals in the territory say seven people have been killed by Israeli fire since midnight on Monday. Israel has accused Hamas of reneging on the plan by only releasing four bodies of the 28 hostages who are thought to have died. There are also videos emerging of what appear to be extra-judicial killings by Hamas. Meanwhile, aid agencies warn that the humanitarian needs in Gaza are overwhelming.

Also: an elite military unit in Madagascar says it has taken control of the island after President Andry Rajoelina fled following anti-government protests. UN-backed negotiations designed to reduce the environmental impact of global shipping are starting in London, but the US is opposing an international treaty on emissions. Why British security officials are urging companies to use pen and paper to win the battle against cyber attacks. How the US state of North Carolina dramatically reduced the number of opioid-related drug deaths. And the Nobel prize in economics has been awarded to three professors for their work explaining how technology has helped drive economic growth.

Marketplace All-in-One - Fewer Chinese international students at American universities

There are almost 250,000 Chinese students in the U.S. this fall. That's a 36% drop from the 2017 peak. For Chinese students still wanting to study abroad, America remains the top destination, but geopolitics, safety concerns, and persistent inflation are making the U.S. a less attractive place to receive a higher education. And later, Switzerland is facing 39% tariffs from the U.S. How are businesses there faring?

Newshour - What’s next for Palestinians and Israelis?

There's uncertainty over the next steps in the Gaza peace process, a day after President Trump declared the war was over following the exchange of Israeli hostages and Palestinian prisoners. We also speak to a doctor treating Israeli hostages arrived from Gaza. Also on the programme, Madagascar's embattled president, Andry Rajoelina, says he is sheltering in a "safe place" after an attempt on his life, following weeks of protests calling for his resignation; and, one of the world's longest dinosaur trackways, dating back 166 million years, has been found in southern England.
