The Justice Department is investigating an alleged Russian disinformation campaign targeting the 2024 election. Bloomberg Business's Jeff Stone talks with us about that and other attempts at election interference. And, Republicans enjoy overwhelming support in rural, white America. But it wasn't always that way. Eastern Kentucky was once a solid Democratic stronghold. Host Scott Tong reports from Appalachian Kentucky about how that happened and what role coal mining played. Then, Jesse Dufton is an avid climber. He's also blind and relies on a headset and his wife Molly's guidance to climb. Jesse and Molly Dufton join us to talk about Jesse's career and his hopes for the 2028 Paralympics.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
