Trump Responses Worse than 2016, 2020. The hosts for this show are Tim Apicella and Jay Fidell. The guest is Chuck Crumpton.
Trump's town hall meeting sponsored by CNN confirmed what we've come to know about him: he's stuck on his personal grievances, and victimhood. He launched into his belief that VP Pence should have overturned the 2020 Electoral College results. Also, Trump made it clear he would grant pardons to the majority of the convicted Jan 6 insurrectionists. Not to leave the topic, he felt the Georgia Secretary of State 'owed' him 11,780 votes, therefore he did not violate any election laws. He was unable to commit if he wanted Ukraine to prevail over Russia in the war, and strongly implied that he would reinstate the horrific zero-tolerance policy, taking children away from their parents at the southern border. What was evident from the interview: Trump hasn't evolved much from the 2016, 2020 elections. Given his responses, he's worse. Should CNN have given Trump his own platform to pontificate his warped view of past elections and the bleak future he wants America to live in?

CHD, No. 1 Cause of Death for Children. The host for this show is Wendy Loh. The guest is Christopher K.M. Hui.
Sea Star’s story starts with a little girl named Tong Tong. At just a few months, Tong Tong was diagnosed with Congenital Heart Disease (CHD)--at the time, the number #1 cause of death for children under the age of 5. She had difficulty breathing, and her lips and fingers were turning blue due to the lack of oxygen. Her parents were unable to afford the prohibitively high cost of surgery and did not know how to navigate applying to non-profits for help. A few friends heard about their plight, and joined forces to raise funds and help Tong Tong’s family through the application process of various charities. Tong Tong received the surgery she needed with the kindness of everyone involved. These friends realized that there are so many other children with CHD who still needed their help. And gathered more like-minded friends to form Sea Star Children’s Foundation in March 2012.
