The Wall Street Journal
About this episode

P.M. Edition for April 8. Changing industries have shifted party politics in Pennsylvania. Economic churn is pushing voters toward Trump in the Pittsburgh area, potentially overwhelming Democrats’ base of college-educated workers. Reporter and editor Aaron Zitner explains. And JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon warns the U.S. could face an interest-rate spike. Plus, Donald Trump says abortion should be left to the states, in a new campaign video. Annmarie Fertoli hosts.


Correction: President Biden revoked a permit for the Keystone XL pipeline in 2021. An earlier version of this episode incorrectly said it was the Keystone pipeline. (Corrected April 9)
