They debate whether GOP border hawks want actual deportations or just spicy cable-news optics, and whether NPR got PBS defunded by sheer association. Meanwhile, the Democrats try to square "abolish ICE" with NYC’s obsession with safety—somehow still winning. Plus, Goat Grinders include denied entrance at Charlie Kirk events, the tyranny of the word “unhoused,” and the tragic combustion of Jeff Maurer’s own anti-sawdust screed.

President Trump wants lower interest rates now, but what could that mean for the economy? "Marketplace" host Kai Ryssdal speaks with Neil Irwin at Axios about the implications of Trump's push to cut rates, and why central banks should stay focused on stabilizing the economy, not helping the government manage its debt. Also on the show: One of the pieces passed in the GOP's sweeping budget bill was a measure that would end taxes on tips and overtime. We look at who qualifies and who doesn't. And later, how companies are viewing the cost and importance of business travel.

The medical charity, Medecins Sans Frontieres, has told the BBC that cases of sexual violence in Haiti have tripled in the last four years. One in five victims are under the age of eighteen. With gangs now controlling nearly all of the capital, Port au Prince, violence and insecurity are worsening. So far this year, more than four thousand people have been killed. A BBC team talking to survivors in the capital found women and children were the most affected by systematic rape, murder and arson.
Also in the programme: an American university agrees to a settlement with the Trump administration; and the death of a global wrestling icon.
