Napheesa Collier (@napheesa24 ) of the Minnesota Lynx made a relentless public critique of league management last year.
In an interview with NPR's Steve Inskeep, she talks about the new WNBA contract and securing higher pay and increased benefits for women. Reminded that she had called WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert "the worst leadership in the world," Collier stepped back slightly.
"Thinking about the state of the world right now, I think that's a little dramatic," she said.

JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon believes artificial intelligence, on balance, will help the workforce and society. AI was featured prominently in Dimon’s annual letter to shareholders, a highly anticipated letter to shareholders that covers a wide range of topics, including the firm’s performance, the impact of emerging technology and geopolitical risks. NPR’s Steve Inskeep asked Dimon why he believes AI won’t simply replace people’s jobs and why younger generations should be cautiously optimistic about the impact AI will have on their lives.

Maryland Governor Wes Moore says he is not now running for president, but he’s clearly giving a lot of thought to the challenges the next president will face. In an interview with NPR’s Steve Inskeep, Moore said the next president should acknowledge that some institutions were broken by Trump and cannot be revived. Other institutions may survive but “need to be broken.”
The governor sat for an NPR video interview Wednesday at the Maryland State House.

Asked what the next U.S. president will face in 2029, Maryland Governor Wes Moore said the country was “functionally broken” to elect Donald Trump for a second time. In an interview with NPR’s Steve Inskeep, Moore said “I think that the answer cannot simply be, well, now we’ve just got to put everything back together.”
Moore divided the next president’s tasks into categories … like broken institutions that can’t be fixed and broken institutions that can be. “For example, I would take the pardon power away from the president and every single governor,” Moore said.

Maryland Governor Wes Moore served in Afghanistan, as an officer in the Army’s 82nd Airborne Division — the same unit that President Trump has ordered to deploy to the Persian Gulf region for a currently unknown mission. “We used to run battle drills on Iran and how complicated it was,” Moore said in an interview with NPR’s Steve Inskeep. “We’re talking 25 years ago.”
But he said President Trump should not have authorized force before exhausting other options. He said Trump has given no “understanding of what the mission and the end game was,” and still has an obligation to address the nation on the war.

Before our @npr video interview with Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, my colleague Ziad Buchh @zabuchh sat in for the governor to test the sound and lighting.
