  How FlyDubai Flight Averted Crash After Co-Pilot Stabbing; Are DHS’s Pro-Trump ‘PSAs’ Legal?

  Sep 30, 202624 min

  A FlyDubai flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv made an emergency landing in Saudi Arabia on Wednesday after a pilot was attacked by his co-pilot in the cockpit, sending the plane plummeting more than 14,000 feet in under 30 seconds. NBC international correspondent Matt Bradley takes us onboard Flight FZ1073 as the incident unfolded and explains why investigators are not ruling out terrorism. Next, the Trump administration faces bipartisan criticism for new “public service announcements” that were funded by Customs and Border Protection and bear a striking resemblance to President Trump’s 2024 campaign ads. NBC News senior homeland security correspondent Julia Ainsley breaks down how the ads got made – and whether this use of taxpayer money is even legal. Finally, exclusive NBC reporting revealed that incarcerated music producer Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs has been living a life of luxury with alcohol, special meals and even a masseuse while serving a sentence for sex crimes. NBC News entertainment correspondent Chloe Melas delves into how Diddy has been able to get around prison restrictions and how this reporting could impact the remainder of his prison sentence.

  What to Know About America.gov and its AI; Mr. Smith Takes On Washington

  Sep 29, 202626 min

  The Trump administration is pitching its new website, America.gov, as an AI-powered one-stop shop for tasks like renewing your passport and signing up for Medicare. White House correspondent Monica Alba walks us through how the new site works — and how it fits into the AI summit President Donald Trump held at the White House. Then, former special counsel Jack Smith went head-on with Republican senators on Capitol Hill on Tuesday, defending the federal indictments against Trump in the 2020 election interference case and the classified documents case. NBC News White House and Capitol Hill correspondent Julie Tsirkin explains why Smith was in the hot seat and what could happen with these cases if Democrats retake control of Congress in the midterm elections. Plus, Major League Baseball’s Wild Card Series kicks off Tuesday, with some big rivals going head-to-head, including the Phillies vs. the Braves and the Yankees vs. the Red Sox. But can any team beat the two-time defending champion Los Angeles Dodgers? NBC Sports analyst and former Chicago Cubs star Anthony Rizzo gives his take on what to watch out for this postseason.

  DA Reopens Sexual Assault Investigation at Cornell And Why Some Republicans Are Breaking with Trump

  Sep 28, 202624 min

  A New York district attorney is reopening an investigation into an alleged “gang-rape” at Cornell University in 2024 after a former student, identified as Jane Doe, filed a civil lawsuit against the university and others earlier this month. NBC News legal analyst Misty Marris explains how the initial Title IX investigation differed from a criminal investigation and what role new evidence, including social media messages written that night, may play. Then, some Republicans in competitive midterm races have started distancing themselves from President Trump on issues including the war in Iran, AI and data centers. NBC News National Politics Reporter Allan Smith explains their motivation and why the president has mostly refrained from turning his supporters against them. And finally, global temperatures have been rising faster than scientists’ projections for years. NBC News science reporter Evan Bush tells us about a new study that points the finger at an unlikely culprit: missing dust. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

  Election Edition: Democrats’ Israel Dilemma

  Sep 26, 202639 min

  As Democrats grapple with what their party stands for, one issue continues to divide them: Israel. The first signs of a fissure came after Israel began its invasion of Gaza in response to the Oct. 7 attacks. Some progressive Democrats demanded a more forceful U.S. response to what they saw as war crimes being committed with the help of American weapons and military aid. By the fall of 2024, a larger movement against the war had grown: More than 100,000 Democrats cast uncommitted ballots in the Michigan primary — a harbinger of Kamala Harris’ ultimate loss to Donald Trump. Since then, polls show that voter support for Israel has continued to decline in both parties. But among Democrats, that erosion has been far more dramatic. So how should the party position itself on Israel policy in 2026 — and eventually, 2028? In this episode of "Here’s the Scoop, Election Edition," we ask two Democrats on opposite sides of this debate: Tariq Habash, a co-founder of A New Policy, a political group that advises candidates like Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan, and Rep. Dan Goldman, D-N.Y., who says he lost his primary because of his position on Israel. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

  What Spiking Mortgage Rates Do to Homebuying, And Russian Propaganda Hits Home in Ukraine

  Sep 25, 202624 min

  Homebuyers, beware! Mortgage rates topped 7.45% this week, a new high that is throwing a curveball in an already fragile real estate market. NBC News chief business correspondent Christine Romans explains what’s driving the spike and how it fits into the broader economic picture. Then, an NBC News report found that thousands of Ukrainian prisoners have been forced to denounce the war effort in Russian propaganda videos. NBC News senior technology reporter Jane Lytvynenko spoke with former prisoners of war about how these videos have torn their families and communities apart. Finally, Taylor Swift dropped four new songs, plus a 13-second teaser for a music video that will debut at the VMAs this weekend. NBC News correspondent Emilie Ikeda breaks down how fans are responding and helps us decipher the Easter eggs. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
