New York entrepreneur Andrew Yang was the next candidate to visit the Times boardroom for an endorsement interview. The board pressed him on his (oddly) regressive economic proposals, his history in college test prep, and how he'd take on Silicon Valley monopolies. Plus: aliens, Shane Gillis and why no one wants to work for the N.S.A.
