Each week we talk to celebrities, scholars,

Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Corva Coleman.
President Trump says the U.S. military has destroyed a vessel carrying illegal drugs in the Southern Caribbean,
killing 11 people.
Trump says the boat was from Venezuela and operated by gang members.
The Pentagon recently deployed three naval destroyers off Venezuela to combat threats from drug cartels.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio has commented on the matter.
NPR's Michelle Kellerman reports Rubio is now in Mexico,
where drugs and migration are leading topics.
Rubio says the U.S. strike destroyed what he calls a drug boat that left Venezuela and was operated by a designated narco-terrorist organization.
Speaking to reporters before boarding his plane to Mexico,
he says this is a sign that drug cartels can no longer act with impunity.
Those days are over.
Now we are going to wage combat against drug cartels that are flooding American streets and killing Americans.
Questions about the legality of the U.S. strikes are likely to cast a long shadow over his talks here with Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum.
He's also planning to meet Ecuador's president in Quito on Thursday.
