In hour one of Here & Now’s March 16, 2018 full broadcast, we break down the week’s news in politics, including Russia sanctions and Trump administration staff shake-ups, with Brian Bennett of The Los Angeles Times and Toluse Olorunnipa of Bloomberg News. Also, we revisit our conversation with the author of “A Generation of Sociopaths: How the Baby Boomers Betrayed America.” And Memphis has been pumping sewage water into the Mississippi River temporarily over the last few days because of a pump failure at a wastewater treatment plant. A reporter there tells us what caused the problem, and when it might be resolved.
