episode 2: Police Videos: North Miami
Police shoot the wrong guy. A collaboration with WNYC Studios and their series Aftereffect.
episode 3: The Red Line
From 2011-2013, Kelly covered the war in Syria, where people would ask, "Why won't the U.S. intervene?" Then came a chemical attack, ordered by Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, that killed more than 1,000 people, and the U.S. almost intervened, but didn't. Now, a new book tells why.
episode 4: The Waiver
President Trump's travel ban has been upheld by the Supreme Court. People from the seven banned countries can still come to the U.S. if they get a special "waiver." So far, few people have gotten them. We follow one Yemeni family as they try to get a waiver to escape a civil war. Supreme Court audio in this episode comes from Oyez.
episode 5: Trump Stories: The Apprentice
Omarosa Manigault Newman has a new book. What about those tapes? We re-visit an episode from our "Trump Stories" season.
episode 6: The Hearing
This is a story about who is allowed to vote... and who is not. In Florida, the ultimate swing state, 1.5 million people cannot vote, because they have a past felony on their record. And there is one way to try and get that right back: Ask the governor directly.
episode 7: After The Storm
The deadliest part of Hurricane Maria was not the storm, but its aftermath. The story behind one family's struggle to keep their son alive, and the danger that remains.
