On Wednesday, on the last day of the term, Justice Kennedy announced his retirement. We look at Kennedy’s departure through the focus of his role as the swing vote; we seek to better understand why people are continuing to cross the border; we have a dispatch from Saudi Arabia where a family of women drove for the first time on Sunday; a look at the police department in Pittsburgh in light of the news that the DA has charged the officer with criminal homicide; a look at the political turmoil roiling the state of West Virginia; and using the new Sicario sequel as a lens to understand how Hollywood depicts the border.
