Cue the Jaws music. It is sequester day. The week the cuts are cast in stone. Friday at midnight, barring a miracle. Ok, the world won’t fall apart tomorrow. But nobody calls this good government. And here we are.
In Rome, the Pope has left the building. Choppered out of the Vatican. There is no Pope. In the Supreme Court, conservative justices express skepticism over the need for the Voting Rights Act.
In Syria, new US funds will flow to rebels, to balance Islamic radical strength. Bradley Manning makes his plea.
This hour, On Point: our weekly news roundtable goes behind the headlines.
