The Intelligence from The Economist - It does mean a thing: America’s swing voters

In the next instalment of our midterms series, we head to the suburbs of Atlanta in search of that rarest of political creatures: the swing voter. There aren’t many of them, but they may well determine which party controls the Senate. Luxury brands are changing their outlooks and offerings as they seek new markets and younger consumers. And our culture correspondent visits a retrospective of William Kentridge’s works.

The Daily Signal - INTERVIEW | Janine Marrone on Psychological Effects of Medication Abortions on Women

More than half of all abortions are medication, rather than surgical, abortions, according to research by the nonprofit group Support After Abortion.


Medication abortions are performed with pills that women usually take at home. 


According to a new study by Support After Abortion, a Florida-based organization that provides post-abortion resources to women across America and the world, many women who have medication abortions struggle with their decision weeks—or even years—later. 


The suffering of abortion goes “beyond the physical suffering,” Janine Marrone, the group's founder, says, adding that many women experience “grief, regret, shame, [and] remorse” after having an abortion.


Marrone joins "The Daily Signal Podcast" to discuss the findings of its new study and the work of Support After Abortion.

Focus on Africa - President Museveni’s son’s tweets raise eyebrows

In today's podcast:

Ugandans' tongues are wagging after a day which saw the President's son first demoted and then promoted to full General after a series of bizarre tweets that threatened to cause a diplomatic rift with neighboring Kenya.

Also, a $100 million dollar cocaine haul has been seized in Liberia by the Drugs Enforcement Agency, and a number of arrests made after a tip-off from the Americans, and it seems to point to a global syndicate.

Plus, thirteen women who'd been abducted from between three weeks to six months are rescued from their captors in Zambia.

Those stories and more in this podcast with Bola Mosuro.

Consider This from NPR - Migration Is Shifting. Who Is Crossing Where?

The past twelve months have been the deadliest on record for the migrants crossing the Southern U.S. Border from Mexico. More than 800 have died in the last fiscal year.

This past year also saw a shift in migration. More and more are coming from Nicaragua, Cuba and Venezuela. Past entry points have given way to more remote locations on the border, like Eagle Pass and Del Rio, Texas.

These were sleepy border towns, now they are some of the busiest junctions on the border.

Who is arriving and what happens when they get there?NPR's Marisa Peñaloza and Joel Rose report.

In participating regions, you'll also hear a local news segment to help you make sense of what's going on in your community.
