Trump stunned European leaders and members of his own party in
congress when he announced the U.S. would buy diesel from Russia.
He also told Ukraine to stop targeting Russia's energy
infrastructure, and publicly criticized Ukraine's leader
Volodymyr Zelensky saying he should be replaced. What motivates
President Trump right now when it comes to Russia and
Ukraine?

Federal agents raided the home of Democratic lawmaker Ilhan Omar,
a fierce Trump critic. The Justice Department won’t say what
they’re investigating, but Omar and her allies say the president
is weaponizing federal law enforcement in an intensifying
campaign of political intimidation. When stories like this
surface in this political climate, do the facts of the
investigation even matter, or do too many of us stay firmly
planted in our echo chambers and pass judgment immediately?

And a listener asks us for help to keep hope alive that his local
elected leaders can and will do the right thing for their
constituents.
