WSJ What’s News - Drones Close Denmark’s Airspace for Second Time

A.M. Edition for Sept. 25. Multiple drones flew over airports and a military base housing most of the country's fighter jets, with Denmark’s government calling the hybrid attack a threat to freedom and safety. Plus, the White House is planning for mass firings if there is a government shutdown next week. And, Delta is upgrading plane engines that are often behind toxic fumes leaking into the air supply on flights.

Code Story: Insights from Startup Tech Leaders - S11 Bonus: Chris Kline, BitcoinIRA

Chris Kline grew up in Aurora, Colorado, and went to school in Boulder to study finance and leadership. He has lived through several significant events that led him to take a risk, and spend some time in small business and entrepreneurship. And eventually, he took a leap of faith, sold everything he had, and flew to California. Outside of tech, he is married with a 12 year old daughter. He is fascinated by macro economics, and loves to dig into alternative assets like real estate and gold.

Chris started to get into crypto back when it was still in the fringes, and people didn't really know what Bitcoin was. Ten years later, his company is solving the retirement process with alternative, crypto assets.

This is the creation story of BitcoinIRA.

The Daily - The U.S. Keeps Killing Venezuelans on Boats. Is That Legal?

The U.S. military has blown up three boats in the Caribbean Sea in the past three weeks, killing 17 people aboard.

Each time, President Trump has claimed that the boats were carrying drugs to the United States and that those killed were “narcoterrorists.” But he has offered no concrete evidence to back up this claim.

Charlie Savage, who covers national security for The New York Times, tells us what he has learned about what may be the true objective behind these airstrikes and whether any of this is even legal.

Guest: Charlie Savage, who writes about national security and legal policy for The New York Times.
