Texas Standard for August 10, 2017
North Korea’s threat to fire as many as four missiles at a U.S. territory has many Americans on edge. We put Kim Jong Un’s words in perspective, today on the Standard. And: State lawmakers vote to undo a law they just passed in the spring. Why Republicans are calling a law to crackdown on mail-in ballot fraud a “well-intentioned mistake.” Also: Self-driving cars sound like a dream for many commuters. How the new technology would change several aspects of life in Texas cities. Plus: Summer’s over for most Texas school children, but imagine going to school year-round? It’s a reality for kids at one elementary in San Antonio. And: Finding the perfect boots and barbecue. We tap into a little Texas culture to give you some guidance. Turn up your dial, it’s Texas Standard time:
