  • What do we know about what's driving political violence?

    What do we know about what's driving political violence?
    Jul 13 2025
    It's been a year since the assassination attempt on President Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania and the motivations of the shooter are still unclear.

    The US Capitol Police threat assessment cases have risen for the second year in a row, with the total number more than doubling since 2017.

    At times political violence is starting to feel as pervasive as school shootings. But what do we know about what's driving this anger?

    NPR's Scott Detrow speaks with Katherine Keneally, from the Institute for Strategic Dialogue, about her threat analysis research and recommendations for countering a rise in political violence.

  • Inside the Diddy trial: why it felt like a watch party at the courthouse

    Inside the Diddy trial: why it felt like a watch party at the courthouse
    Jul 12 2025
    On July 2nd, Sean Combs was acquitted of the most serious charges he faced: racketeering and sex trafficking. He was found guilty on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution — and he remains in prison awaiting sentencing in early October.

    Over the course of eight weeks, the trial became a spectacle, even by the high standards of celebrity courtroom dramas. One reason? All of the influencers.

    For our weekly Reporter's Notebook series we bring you the the view from inside the courthouse as the Diddy spectacle unfolded.

  • When old oil wells become 'orphans,' that's a problem

    When old oil wells become 'orphans,' that's a problem
    Jul 11 2025
    All across the U.S., there are aging oil and natural gas wells no longer in use.

    A lot of them don't have anyone on the hook to seal them up. Some estimate over a million such "orphan wells" still exist.

    Because they haven't been plugged, they're still leaking greenhouse gases and other chemicals into the atmosphere and into the land around them.

    What would it take to plug them — or even just one of them?
