September 25, 2018: Hour 1

Following President Trump's address at the U.N. on Tuesday morning, we speak with security analyst Jim Walsh about what Trump had to say. Also, over the course of her career, historian Jill Lepore has focused on specific moments in the American story, like King Philip's War, or on unsung characters like Benjamin Franklin's sister Jane. But her ambitious new book, "These Truths: A History of the United States," brings it all together. And we hear from Jesse Tripathi, a Yale Law School student who was arrested in Washington, D.C., on Monday at protests against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, a Yale Law graduate. Kavanaugh faces multiple allegations of sexual assault. That and more, in hour one of Here & Now's Sept. 25, 2018 full broadcast.
