The Gist - The Brand Is the Business: Devon Archer on Biden, Burisma, and Being the Fall Guy
Devon Archer, Hunter Biden’s former business partner, joins to detail Ukrainian gas deals and what he calls the “Biden brand.” From paper mache with the Vice President to secretive dinners in Paris, he describes selling access, sidestepping scrutiny, and eventually being left holding the legal bag. Also, “10% for the big guy”? Archer says that wasn’t just a turn of phrase—it was the deal.

Kennedy Jr., a former anti-vaccine advocate, now says the MMR vaccine is the most effective way to prevent the spread of measles. Deema Zein spoke with someone who had a front-row seat to its creation. PBS News is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders

1A - The Future Of America’s National Parks
People visited U.S. National Park sites a record 331 million times last year. Were you one of them?
If you were, and plan to visit any National Parks this year though, staff cuts might mean a different kind of experience.
At the direction of Elon Musk's DOGE entity, the Department of the Interior fired around 1,000 probationary National Park Service employees in February.
That has current and former NPS employees feeling pessimistic about the future.
We discuss how these cuts will impact the future of America's National Parks.

The Daily Signal - Victor Davis Hanson: What Would it Take to Destroy the United States?
What does an agenda designed to hurt the United States look like? Look no further than the past four years under the Biden-Harris administration, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”
“ If you really wanted to, in civilizational terms, destroy the United States, the first thing I would do if I was an enemy of the United States was I would destroy the borders.
“If you also wanted to hurt the United States, you know what I would do if I had nefarious intent? I would keep printing money. And I would call that, in fact, ‘Build Back Better.’”
“ The third thing that I would do, and I think it's besides debt and borders and fuel. I would sow disunity. And I would say that the content of our character is not as important as the color of our skin.”

Reset gets the inside story with Natalie Moore, host of “Stories Without End,” a WBEZ Making podcast.
