President Trump warned that Iran “made a very big mistake” after the Iranian Revolutionary Guard shot down and American RQ-4A Global Hawk surveillance drone. Iran maintains that the drone crossed their airspace, but the US says that is just not true. Bryan Bender, defense editor at Politico, joins us for more on the drone shoot down and continued tension with Iran.
Next, in the aftermath of the shootings in Parkland last year, prosecutors around the country turned to a zero tolerance policy when it came to students who made threats against a school. This even prompted one prosecutor in Texas, to charge 216 students in 3 months. But now, some are moving away from that because they want to avoid overcharging students in cases that don’t turn out to be serious. Dan Frosch, Reporter for the WSJ, joins us for how priorities are changing.
Finally, we speak to Sarah Zhang, writer at the Atlantic, about the sperm donor who has met 17 of his kids. Tim Gullicksen began donating sperm in 1989 and most of his kids are 18-25 years old now. They found him and other siblings through the Donor Sibling Registry and DNA tests like 23andMe. A new family unit has formed and Sarah helps tell you their story.
