The Department of Justice’s inspector general is investigating a claim that the FBI spied on Donald Trump’s presidential campaign. We look at what Trump’s allegation means for the Russia probe. Then, while active shooter drills are now commonplace practices at schools, they’re not as inclusive to students with disabilities as they could be. We learn more from our guest. We also take a look at why the nostalgic longing we feel for an idealized past could also serve to be a separating force between different racial and cultural groups.
