Mormon Church Attack, Looming Government Shutdown, and Conspiratorial Women
A gunman violently attacked a Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints congregation in Michigan. The UN General Assembly met in New York. And, the federal government may shut down if Congress doesn't meet a Wednesday deadline. Mike Cosper and Clarissa Moll review these headlines, and Mike sits down with Noelle Cook to discuss why women in midlife are being drawn into conspiracy theories.
