Trapped survivors rescued from Mariupol. Inmate escapes with corrections officials. Posthumous honor for Naomi Judd. CBS News Correspondent Steve Kathan has today's World News Roundup.
NPR's Rachel Martin talks to Barry Pavel of the Scowcroft Center for Strategy and Security at the Atlantic Council, about the mechanics of military aid to Ukraine and the prospect of a long conflict.
Much like Ukraine, Taiwan has a well-armed neighbour that does not think it exists as a state: China. We ask what both sides are learning from Russia’s invasion. A heavy-handed string of arrests following a flare-up of gang violence in El Salvador is unlikely to change matters. And an analysis reveals the connection between weather and whether voters support climate-change legislation.
We'll tell you about the highest-ranking U.S. politician so far to visit Ukraine during the war and what to know about a new Disinformation Board and why it's already facing criticism.
Also, where a U.S. suburb was hit by a powerful storm that destroyed hundreds of homes.
Plus, how the music industry is saying goodbye to a country legend, why some products are getting smaller at the grocery store, and what to expect from fashion's biggest night out.
Governor Kevin Stitt is leading a turnaround in Oklahoma.
He’s set a goal of making Oklahoma a top 10 state in America by cutting taxes and growing the economy, empowering parents, and being a destination where more people call home.
He joins The Daily Signal in studio to talk about the big issues facing Oklahoma and a Supreme Court case that brings him to Washington, D.C.
Today on “Long Reads Sunday,” NLW reads Balaji Srinivasan’s “The Elondrop.”

The only thing worse than a Get-Rich-Quick-Scheme is a Save-The-World-Quick-Scheme, and we’re all falling for it: the Aspirational systems of DAOs, altcoins and crypto charities.
Human beings are generally good people! But they’re also generally lazy people. When good natures and low efforts meet, terrible decisions follow. Scam coins, feel-good make-bad charities, DAOs and the joy of recycling; they’re all aspirational systems.

Communities of color are the most harshly affected by climate change in the United States. While the importance of environmental justice is becoming more mainstream, too often people in this movement who are Black, Indigenous and people of color are overlooked and left out of conversations about how to solve the crisis.
Ayana Elizabeth Johnson, a marine biologist, policy expert and writer, wants the broader environmental movement to understand the crucial link between the fight to save the planet and the fight for racial justice.
And we'll hear how the Donors of Color Network is working to increase philanthropic funding for environmental initiatives led by people of color.
On this edition of the “Weekly Recap,” NLW looks at the surprise GDP decline in the U.S., as well as wraps up other stories from the macro environment, regulatory sphere and around institutional adoption.
