On GPS at 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. ET on CNN: First, Fareed gives his Take on recent moves by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, President Trump's support for his regional strategy, and how "America could find itself dragged deeper into the growing morass in the Middle East." "The war in Yemen has turned into a disaster, creating a failed state on Saudi Arabia's border, seething with anger against Riyadh. Qatar has not surrendered and doesn't seem likely to anytime soon. The Shiites in Lebanon did not take the bait and so far they seem the responsible party, refusing to plunge the country into instability. But everywhere in the Middle East, tensions are rising, sectarianism is gaining ground and, with a couple of miscalculations or accidents, things could spiral out of control." Next, Fareed hosts a panel from London to discuss populism in Europe, America's role in the world, President Trump's trip to Asia and developments this week in Zimbabwe. Joining Fareed are Radek Sikorski, a former foreign minister of Poland, Niall Ferguson, a senior fellow at both Stanford's Hoover Institution and Harvard's Center for European Studies and author of "The Square and the Tower," and Anne McElvoy, a senior editor at The Economist and a columnist for London's Evening Standard. Also on the show: Fareed speaks with Salman Rushdie about Islamic radicalism, America in the age of Trump, and his new novel "The Golden House." Watch Rushdie discuss the ISIS threat Plus: A study out this month from the Institute for Policy Studies finds that the three richest men in America -- Bill Gates, Warren Buffet and Jeff Bezos -- are worth more than the entire bottom 50% of the American population. Fareed is joined by Ray Dalio, a billionaire and founder of hedge fund Bridgewater Associates, who explains why he is worried about a two-tier economy, why we should focus on those in the bottom 60 percent of the economy, and his new book "Principles." Watch Dalio discuss why he's worried about the U.S. economy | |
