• This week, Syria’s Bashar Assad used chemical weapons against his own people—and America responded with its first direct assault on Syria. This could be a turning point in Syria’s six-year civil war.
• Terrorists attacked in St. Petersburg, Russia, killing 11. If it follows the pattern of previous attacks, it will allow Vladimir Putin to tighten his grip on power.
• The German military is launching a new branch—a massive effort to meet the growing threat from cyberattacks.
• California has ruled in the case of Planned Parenthood employees’ willingness to sell aborted baby parts. It has convicted the criminal behavior of … the people who secretly filmed the incriminating videos.
• We’ll also talk about China’s leader visiting Donald Trump—a surprising announcement from Russia’s Foreign Ministry—what happens to Gibraltar now that Britain is leaving the European Union—and a record-breaking drug bust in Australia.
