A big week of news around the globe. President Obama moves to normalize relations with Cuba. On the other side of the world, Putin lashes out—and blames the West for Russia’s economic woes. There was international outrage following a deadly school attack by the Taliban in Pakistan. Closer to home, Jeb Bush announces he’s “actively exploring” a run for the president, New York says no to fracking. The 2013 Congress ends. What did they accomplish? The Sony Pictures / North Korea story just keeps getting weirder. This hour, On Point: Our weekly news roundtable goes behind the headlines. / Michel Martin
