    Roundup: Trump N.Y. Sentencing Delayed Until After Election

    It was a busy week in U.S. courtrooms. After being convicted of 34 felonies earlier this year in a New York state trial, former President Donald Trump will have to wait until after the presidential election to find out what punishment he may face. Meanwhile, in a federal courthouse in California, Hunter Biden unexpectedly pleaded guilty to tax charges. And, the Department of Justice returned indictments accusing Russian agents of trying to interfere in the 2024 presidential election through, among other ways, paying right-wing online influencers. This episode: political correspondent Susan Davis, national justice correspondent Carrie Johnson, disinformation correspondent Shannon Bond, and senior political editor & correspondent Domenico Montanaro.

    Breaking Down "No Tax On Tips"

    By now, you've probably heard a lot from both presidential nominees about getting rid of taxes on tips. The idea may sound good on first go, but it has its detractors, namely economists and tax experts. Their fears include unfairness and people gaming the system. Our friends at The Indicator from Planet Money look at how to put in place guardrails for a policy that many economists believe is likely to go off the rails.
