for “pbs news weekend,” i'm ali rogin. dance craze is and -- dance crazes and cute animals are unavoidable on the video-sharing app. but look below the surface, underwater to be more precise, some special, critically endangered crustaceans have unintentionally hopped on the trend. ♪ it's called a shrimp rave. electronic music. synchronized grooving. glowing shrimp. these exclusive extravaganzas can be seen on the “shrimply beautiful” tiktok account. it's run by conservationist and california state fullerton student, timothy utterback. >> i would put educational videos, a kind of lo-fi piano, relaxing videos of the shrimp. and i would put captions listing how they're endangered and this and that about their species. and they never really seemed to pop. once i started putting the entertaining music on, a lot of people were drawn to it. lisa: the stars of the show are cardinal sulawesi shrimp, a small species of critically endangered critters who once hailed from an ancient indonesian lake. t no one has recorded them there si

rogin is having issues these days. and i gave this, double down, double down, stop apologizing. apologize for. i saw this morning rumble offered rogin $100 million to go to rumble for spotify. i think that mr. rogin should have me on his podcast, i think that would be a great podcast and here what he had to say about the anthony fauci darpa stuff. they ask you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears and ask you to for the virtue of their own decree that they're credible. it's a self-anointed decree. it's the veritas guy, it's not me. they're saying that the documents are fake? they're asking you to trust the new york times and "the washington post" by virtue that they are credible, but there's never any evidence. the bombshell coincided with our minnesota story a year ago, they didn't show you any on the record sources, they didn't show you video. they didn't show you documents, but they asked you to trust them and we have no reason to trust them. we have no reason to trust the media, says joe rogan. >> o'keefe from project veritas on the other day and that guy is the bogey

ali rogin, thank you.eantime, last night's elections also showcased the continuing strength of the so-called big lie in the republican party. candidates who ran on the false claim that the 2020 election was stolen won primaries up and down the ballot. and they won in two of the states at the center of that conspiracy, arizona and michigan, setting up stark contests for governor, congress and secretary of state in november. for more on the results and what they mean, i'm joined by our own stephanie sy in phoenix. and jessica huseman, she's the editorial director of votebeat. hello to both of you. thank you for being with us. stephanie, i'm going to start with you. a lo of the most closely watched races last night were in arizona, where you are based. a number of republican candidates there running on the false claim that the 2020 election was stolen. tell us about what they were saying and what happened. stephanie: judy, if there was any doubt about former president trump's influence on the republican party

let's bring in josh rogin, cnn political analyst and "washington post" columnist, and of course, a fervent china watcher. josh, as you heard from blake, china hasn't responded yet. but the incredible anger that we saw over pelosi's visit, including firing missiles over the island, what does that make you thing the reaction is going to be to this surprise visit? >> it's clear that the chinese communist party is viewing these visits by u.s. congressional delegations differently now. they're asserting a more aggressive response to make the point that china is powerful enough to exert control over who can go to taiwan and who can't. now, it won't be as big as the pelosi delegation because as daniella pointed out, this is not the third in line to the u.s. presidency, but they will feel compelled to respond and we're likely to see a tightening of the economic and military coercion that they're subjecting the people of taiwan to, which is including cutting off taiwanese exports, arresting taiwanese businessmen, shooting missiles over the island, surrounding the island with military exercises. we'

for the pbs newshour, i'm ali rogin in kansas city, kansas.the other places where the battle over reproductive rights is taking shape is michigan. earlier today, an appellate court ruled that prosecutors can enforce the state's 1931 abortion ban. that could essentially make abortion illegal in some parts of the state. it's a busy week on capitol hill and on the campaign trail, with democrats working to pass their $740 billion economic agenda and five states heading to the polls for primary elections. laura barron-lopez brings us up to speed. laura: there are just 99 days left until the midterm elections. democrats are racing to pass the inflation reduction act before campaign season is in full swing. and competitive republican primaries are pitting candidates loyal to former president donald trump up against republicans who voted to impeach him. here to analyze all this and more are amy walter of the cook political report with amy walter. and tamra keith of npr. thank you for being with us today. tamra, i want. . to start with you democratic s

my colleague ali rogin has more on ts phenomenon, which has existed for decades, but is only now gainingead attention. ali: marine heatwaves occur when ocean temperatures are higher than usual for at least five days. the mediterranean sea has been experiencing one since may, with temperatures five to nine degrees fahrenheit higher than normal. that might not sound like a lot, but it's deadly for the delicate ecosystems that populate the sea. and experts predict there will be more damage before the summer is over. for more on these marine heatwaves, i'm joined by michael j. cox. he's a research oceanographer with the national oceanic and atspheric administration. michael, thank you so much for joining us. what's causing these marine heatwaves? michael: well, marine heatwaves can be driven by a number of different things, changes in the atmosphere, different weather systems. you can get a high-pressure system in the atmosphere that reduces winds and mixing in the ocean, for example. so they do occur naturally and can happen for a number of different reasons. ali: but part of this is becaus

judy: ali rogin was reporting for us from kansas in the days leading up to the election, and has beenthe vote. you were there. you were watching closely last night. these results were a surprise. >> it was a stunning defeat for this amendment. the vote was 59 to 41 against. experts we spoke to expected it to be much closer, although they weren't sure which side would prevail. so this is a much larger margin than anybody anticipated. why? one big reason is turnout. take a look at these numbers. during the last primary in 2018, just over 405,000 people turned out. compare that with this vote, about double that, more than 900,000 kansans. and it's just slightly less than the turnout in the 2020 general election, which was about 1.3 million voters. now, practically speaking, this means ortion remains the same as it was in kansas before the vote. the procedure is allowed up to 22 weeks. but the pro amendment side says this was a temporary setback, and they say the fight will continue in kansas. judy: these numbers are off the charts for an off year. i know you have been talking to people.

down to crown point and then for the condo rogin on to albany. through the summer of 76, there was a true question as to whether or not these canadian regiments we continue. canada was not choosing to join in this rebellion. so, why would you have this other canadian regiment? the original idea behind it was that it would be like all the other colonies that became states, as it would have its own iteration of a regiment. but if it's not joining the rebellion, what are we doing with this regiment? ultimately, what happened is that congress, by september of 76, went back to hazen, and he was really pushing for this, and said yes, we will reauthorize your second canadian regiment. that you can recruit among the canadian refugees that were up around albany. certainly, recruit those that had come with the american forces to ticonderoga. but we are also authorizing you to recruit among all the states. so, here is another unique factor about this second canadian regiment. that it is allowed to recruit elsewhere. well, this brings up the next point. how

>> thank, you rev and thank you to -- and john rogin for admitting me back, and also i'm thrilled tofollow garrett graff, who was kind of left to let me read one of his earlier manuscripts. so, i'm here today to talk about the effect of nuclear anxiety on the push for presidential successful -- in the form of the 1947 presidential succession act. so, from the nation's founding through the 1947 presidential succession act, questions of presidential succession have -- tapped into deep-seated anxieties about the -- committee and the democratic government. specifically whether it could withstand the threats posed by disruptive, unplanned changes in the nation's highest office. following the united states use use of atomic bombs against japan at the end of world war ii, those anxieties took on new gravity. really by existing, nuclear weapons have already set off train reactions on american society and in every one of these institutions -- the bulletin of atomic scientists recognize that nuclear anxiety had become stable on american popular and political culture overnight. but also that it

the fbi, overall less people saw the story about hunter biden's laptop than otherwise and telling rogine doesn't remember if they specifically mentioned the new york post article about the hunter biden laptop, but fit the story. and nothing about the hunter biden laptop is now and mark zuckerberg testified before the senate nearly two years ago, and led to lots of outrage, including on twitter, andrew clyde tweeted this, it's not just insane, it's election interference. we did reach out to the fbi for comment on the joe rogan interview and the comment that the facebook ceo made. we haven't heard back. griff: that interview getting a lot of attention. thank you alexis. aishah. aishah: okay, so for more on this, let's bring in republican congressman from pennsylvania and member of the house education and labor committee, fred keller, and serves on the house oversight committee. welcome to you. let's start with facebook and what mark zuckerberg and meta are saying, that this is nothing new and that they testified about this in a senate hearing back in 2020. what's your take on that. is it
