President Trump gave his first address to the UN General Assembly today. We discuss his remarks on North Korea and how they might affect U.S. policy abroad. We also hear how a lack of regulation allows people to falsely designate their pets as service animals, and how it does a disservice to those who need animal assistance.

The Effects Of Fake Service Animals
As problems involving fake service animals have increased in recent years, some states have created laws criminalizing the misrepresentation of a pet as a service animal. Meanwhile, the issue has even come up before Congress; a bill introduced to the U.S. Senate this summer by a Wisconsin congresswoman addresses regulations on service animals and emotional support animals. We talk with a columnist about the issues associated with fake service animals, how they affect people with disabilities who need service animals and possible solutions.
