On NPR's Wild Card Podcast,
heavyweight host Jonathan Goldstein talks about his early years as a writer.
I was writing and no one was buying what I was selling.
I just couldn't get anywhere.
And I just kept doing it because I felt compelled to do it, like a spider spinning a web.
Listen to that Wild Card conversation on the NPR app or wherever you get your podcasts.
Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Corva Coleman.
Police in Portland, Oregon,
say that federal agents shot and wounded two people yesterday in a medical clinic parking lot.
A Homeland Security spokeswoman says that border patrol agents stopped two people they identified as Venezuelan gang members who were in a vehicle.
The spokeswoman says the driver then tried to run over the federal agents.
But Portland City and Oregon State authorities are furious.
They're demanding that federal agents leave the city.
Oregon State Representative Ricky Reese says the federal government cannot be trusted,
but citizens must protest peacefully.
I just have the community to please stay aware, stay alert.
If they're planning to protest, please do it in a peaceful way,
and let our police law enforcement do their investigation.
The shooting in Portland came a day after an ICE agent shot and killed a woman in Minneapolis.
The House passed a measure yesterday to restore subsidies to people paying for health insurance under the Affordable Care Act.
