THE CHRISTIAN POST – 1-15-19 — An evangelical group that seeks to promote immigration reform has called upon President Donald Trump and Congress to end the government shutdown through what it described as a “Bipartisan Immigration Compromise.” For the past few weeks, the federal government has been on a partial shutdown since Dec. 22 due to […]
In a year of big headlines, Fresh Air continued to dive deep, broadcasting in-depth interviews on topics that ranged from the magnificent to the microscopic. We spoke with scientists, journalists, activists, filmmakersand two free climbers who conquered a surface on Yosemite’s El Capitan that was once thought impenetrable.
