NPR White House correspondent Tamara Keith joins us to discuss the latest in politics, including President Trump’s criticism of former White House staffer Omarosa Manigault-Newman on Twitter Monday.

After the story published, McCoy’s inbox exploded. And Yemen is in the midst of a bloody civil war that the U.N. says has caused the world’s worst humanitarian crisis. We hear from the president and CEO of Oxfam America, who was recently in Yemen. That and more, in hour two of Here & Now’s Aug. 13, 2018 full broadcast.
