Newshour - Kyiv endures Russian bombardment

Ukraine says at least eight civilians have been killed in a major Russian drone and missile attack, which hit both energy facilities and apartment blocks. We speak to one Kyiv resident who says that living under constant threat makes every day like roulette.

Also in the programme: we ask the UN's High Commissioner for Human Rights, Volker Türk, whether the international community is capable of taking action to stop the flow of arms to the Sudanese RSF group; and crime novelist turned national football coach Eydun Klakstein tells us why his Faroe Islands team have what it takes to make World Cup history.

The Daily Signal - Defeat’s Many Cousins: Scott Pio on Virginia GOP’s Path to Renewal

John F. Kennedy once said; “Victory has 100 Fathers and Defeat is an Orphan.” He may have left out the part where defeat has many cousins ready to tell you what went wrong.


The secret to growing from a defeat is being able to cull the appropriate lessons from the multitude of offerings of analysis. Such is the story of Virginia’s GOP and the defeats suffered State-wide and in the House of Delegates. One rule of thumb is to seek out people with first-hand experience during the defeat because they might often have real direct experience with where “the train started to come off the rails.” 


Such is the story of Scott Pio, he is the Loudon County GOP chair. Glenn Youngkin’s gains in his county helped propel him to the Governors’ Mansion in 2021. Now he’s demanding leadership changes within the statewide party and we sit down with him to talk about what he wants to see happen and what he’s prepared to do if it doesn’t change.
