Description

 For parents with kids in school, you might already be aware that many middle and high schools offer online gradebooks where the status of quizzes, homework, and overall grades can be monitored…and it’s quickly becoming the latest parental obsession. Julie Jargon, family and tech columnist at the WSJ, joins us for how watching the steady stream of test and homework scores is too tempting for some.




Next, Democrats are increasingly getting worried about the amount of money that President Trump and the RNC have raised so far and what it could mean for the general election. This year, they have raised about $300 million for his re-election effort, more than any sitting president in history at this point in the campaign. David Siders, national political correspondent at Politico, join us for money in the campaign and how it’s used.




Finally, U.S. tourism has had a good run for about a decade and small historic cities are starting to feel the pain of this prolonged boom and locals are directing some of their anger at hotel developers. Local city leaders are even passing moratoriums on new hotel construction and hoteliers are feeling unjustly targeted. Mike Sasso, economics reporter at Bloomberg News, joins us for more on these cities overrun by tourists.
