And elected officials wade through destruction and misinformation after another hurricane made landfall this week. “Post Reports” co-host Martine Powers and senior political reporter Aaron Blake talk with Congressional reporter Marianna Sotomayor about whether Democrats will succeed in flipping the House and which voters Harris wanted to reach with her flurry of interviews on podcasts and TV this week.

President Biden says he is asking Israel to stop firing at UN peacekeepers in Lebanon, after two incidents in which UN personnel were wounded by Israeli shots. Jean-Pierre Lacroix, the head of UN Peacekeeping, tells us that it is important for the blue helmets in Lebanon to stay and keep positions manned, but that their ability to fulfill their mandate in southern Lebanon is “limited”. Also in the programme: We hear from the Acting Director of Al-Awda hospital in northern Gaza – Mohammed Salha – about how the week long Israeli siege of Jabaliya is affecting residents; and why authorities in Cameroon claim that President Paul Biya’s health is now a matter of national security.

Donald Trump campaigns in Aurora, Colorado today, a city that he’s targeted with the brand of anti-immigrant rhetoric that has propelled his reelection effort. And Vice President Harris has a new surrogate out on the campaign trail: Barack Obama, who is calling out Black men for what he sees as sexist reluctance to support Harris. And there is an effort to convert Republicans in swing states into quiet Harris supporters, by educating them about the secret ballot and assuring them that their families and communities don’t need to know who they voted for. This episode: White House correspondent Asma Khalid, campaign correspondent Franco Ordoñez, senior national political correspondent Mara Liasson, and national political correspondent Sarah McCammon. The podcast is produced by Jeongyoon Han, Casey Morell and Kelli Wessinger. Our editor is Eric McDaniel. Our executive producer is Muthoni Muturi.
