The man accused of killing Charlie Kirk appeared in court for the first time Tuesday. NPR reports that prosecutors charged the suspect with aggravated murder and will seek the death penalty. While the national unemployment rate remains low, there are fewer jobs than expected being added to the market. The Washington Post’s Abha Bhattarai discusses why more people are also dealing with unemployment of six months or more. Toxic fumes are leaking into airplane cabins more frequently. Ben Katz, aviation reporter for the Wall Street Journal, joins to talk about why that is. Plus, a U.N.-commissioned report accused Israel of committing genocide, ICE apparently violated dozens of federal standards at one of its hastily built detention centers, and the world’s oldest mummies were discovered.
