This morning, we're taking you to Beirut. An explosion leveled buildings, blew out windows for miles, and left at least 100 dead, thousands more hurt and hospitals overwhelmed. A Utah man is now based there as a freelance photojournalist. He felt the explosion, which he describes as sounding like an airstrike, and has been photographing the aftermath. Daniel Carde of Rose Park joins us from Beirut to set the scene.

KSL NewsRadio has obtained a letter from a Salt Lake City school board member, in which she appears to give a potentially political reason for keeping students at home. 

Salt Lake City School Boardmember Katherine Kennedy said that her decision to vote with 5 other members to postpone the start of school and transition all students to online learning beginning in September was done in part because she believes the current CDC guidelines aren't based on science, but have been influenced by the Trump administration as a way to help him get re-elected. 

Boardmember Kennedy joined us to discuss.

What could police have done better Sunday night in Cottonwood Heights to keep the peace at a rally, to keep from rolling around in the street with protestors, and to prevent going to fist-to-cuffs, tasers and arrests?

There's a part of the storyline that you haven't heard yet.
