  • Wednesday, September 12: Incoming
    Hurricane Florence is rolling toward the U.S. and could be a monster. We look at the weather patterns that could lock the storm in place, over land, and lead to the kind of flooding we saw last year in Houston. Donald Trump Jr. speaks exclusive to ABC News and tells us his father's circle of trust is getting smaller. And the family of a black man shot in his own apartment by a white police officer says a manslaughter charge isn't enough.

  • Tuesday, September 11: Remembering, and looking ahead
    It's the 17th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.

The Trump administration is taking what seems like -- to Palestinians, at least -- another step away from the peace table. And there's a new twist in the case of the alleged Russian agent who prosecutors once described as a "Red Sparrow."
