This week, Ron Steslow and Hagar Chemali (Former spokesperson for the U.S. Mission to the UN) meet in studio to discuss the senior administration officials who accidentally shared attack plans with a journalist on Signal.
Then, we dive deeper into whether the perception of Trump as a consistent liar can create a paradoxical stability in global affairs, how an information war threatens an entire financial system, and revisiting the stakes of the AI race.
Finally, we head to Politicology+ where we discuss two recent convictions in a plot to kill Iranian-American journalist and dissident Masih Alinejad and the boldness of our enemies engaging in transnational repression on American soil.
Segments this week:
(04:43) Signal leak
(27:19) Trust collapse
