First, Fareed gives his take on how impeachment has distracted from President Trump's foreign-policy agenda and the instability it's causing.
Trump's policies of "unilateralism and isolationism" are pulling the US back from the world and undermining the global order, Fareed says. They include demanding larger payments from allies South Korea and Japan for housing US troops, ceding Middle East policy to strongmen in Turkey and Saudi Arabia, withdrawing from the UN Human Rights Council, approving of Israeli settlements, and undermining the US commitment to defend NATO allies in Europe.
Though impeachment dominates headlines, Fareed says, the Trump administration has become the biggest threat to the international order by weakening the alliances and rejecting the rules and norms that have upheld it.

Next, Fareed talks with New York Times columnist Tom Friedman, New America CEO Anne-Marie Slaughter, and Eurasia Group President Ian Bremmer about impeachment and what it reveals about Trump's foreign policy.
Fareed then interviews Russian International Affairs Council Director General Andrey Kortunov about what Russia thinks of impeachment and Trump's Ukraine scandal.
Former Time editor and former Under Secretary of State for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs Richard Stengel then talks with Fareed about disinformation (the topic of Stengel's recent book Information Wars) and whether the US needs hate-speech laws (in a recent Washington Post op-ed, Stengel argued the answer is yes).
Finally, Fareed looks at which income bracket is most vulnerable to job automation and AI. | | | | | | |
