The Intelligence from The Economist - Perverting the course of justices: Mexico’s judiciary
Voters will be electing each and every one of the country’s judges—removing the last meaningful check on Morena, the ruling party. Nigeria has more people without electricity than any other country, but fixing that will be fiendishly difficult (7:50). And if it is so easy to order a takeaway pizza, why are home pizza ovens all the rage (14:11)?

Consider This from NPR - Misinformation channels to the Oval Office
President Trump's spreading of the false claim that South Africa is perpetrating a genocide against its white inhabitants is just the latest example of misinformation making its way from corners of the internet into presidential statements or even policy.
This isn't the first time that a falsehood that began on the fringes of the right-wing made its way to the Trump White House. NPR's Scott Detrow and Lisa Hagen examine how these beliefs have been able to reach the Oval Office.

Nigel Biggar, who faced cancel culture for his efforts to reexamine the narrative demonizing the British empire, opens up about the ideological commitments behind cancel culture.

Consider This from NPR - The Supreme Court’s Trump Dilemma
The Supreme Court has become the focal point of the legal battle over President Donald Trump's executive authority – and presidential power more broadly.
Few reporters are as prepared as NPR's Nina Totenberg to report on this unique moment.
Over the last fifty years, Totenberg established herself as the preeminent Supreme Court reporter in America. She's broken countless stories – including allegations of sexual harassment by Clarence Thomas during the justice's 1991 confirmation hearings.
For this week's Reporter's Notebook host Scott Detrow speaks with Totenberg about this crucial moment in the court's history and consequential cases she has covered over the years.
