Trump suspect charge, Trudeau’s troubles...

Reuters
About this episode

The suspect in an apparent attempt to assassinate Donald Trump has been charged with two gun-related crimes, a day after authorities say he was spotted in the bushes with a rifle as the former U.S. president played golf nearby. Canada's ruling Liberal party has lost a once-safe seat in a Montreal parliamentary constituency, preliminary results show, a result likely to put more pressure on Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to quit. Chipotle is testing an automated bowl-and-salad maker and an avocado-processing robot at a couple of locations in California.
