Senate Shutdown Breakthrough, SNAP Legal Battle, COP30 Climate Summit Starts

What does it mean to live through war? And can someone who’s experienced
 war ever get over it? These are questions NPR’s Quil Lawrence has been 
asking himself for years. A decade ago, Lawrence did a story on David 
Carlson, a veteran who’d excelled at being a soldier but struggled at 
home with PTSD, drugs and finally incarceration. Could Carlson find a 
way out or would the trauma of war come to define his life?
Listen to Part 2 here.

FAA Cuts Flights, SNAP Ruling, Trump Focused Abroad

President Trump calls on Senate Republicans to end the government shutdown by scrapping the filibuster, even as he admits the standoff hurt the party in this week’s elections.
