Description: With just 15 days until the midterm elections, President Trump ramps up his campaign schedule, heading to Kansas and North Carolina this week as both states face tight races. Also, a deadly weekend in Kansas, where a woman drove her truck through a crowded youth soccer game, killing two people, including a child, and injuring nearly a dozen others. Plus, an expedition we’ve been following for more than a year in search of Amelia Earhart’s long-lost plane has come up empty-handed. And, for the first time since the loss of Presley Gerber, his family speaks publicly about their devastating grief. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
