How Sweden influenced Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s worldview
Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg attends an event at Georgetown Law, Oct. 2019.

And, in a stunning climax to the Tour de France, a 22-year-old cyclist beat his older countryman and became the first Slovenian to win cycling’s most prestigious race.
