2020/04/09

The only thing you know about the ghastly numbers the grow larger every day on your computer or television screen is that they are wrong.They hugely understate the number of victims of the current pandemic and because we are testing a fraction of a fraction of what we should be, we can't tell how far off we are...or what the real nature of the disease is.The Administration is lying and suppressing data.And the potentialfor a horrific second wave later in the year is growing.We discuss how we get to

One of the surest ways to get fired in the Trump Administration is to speak the truth.Ask Captain Brett Crozier.Or just place your duty to the country ahead of your loyaltyto Donald Trump.Ask former Intelligence Community Inspector General Michael Atkinson...and so many others.This is not just disturbing behavior it is death by a thousand cuts to democracy and the current COVID crisis is giving Trump and Co. cover to continue their attack on our system.They're not alone however, from Hungary to

America is just over 4% of the world's population but home to 25% of its COVID-19 cases.While European nations like Italy and Spain are wracked with the disease, Europeans typically do not have the added anxiety of trying to figure out how to pay for healthcare or worrying that their government will not support them if they lose their job.We congratulate ourselves on having the strongest economy in the world but are importing basic PPE supplies from China and Russia.Our fragility and our flaws are

Joe Nye, Harvard professor and formerly Dean of Harvard's Kennedy School of Government, has a timely new book called "Do Morals Matter? Presidents and Foreign Policy from FDR to Trump" that serves as a jumping off point for our discussion of where we are in the current crisis, why we are here and what we can do better going forward.We have an exceptional group discussing these topics including Rosa Brooks of Georgetown Law, Kori Schake of the American Enterprise Institute, David Sanger of the New

In South Africa during the AIDS crisis, as our special guest Dr. Seema Yasmin points out, the government's denial of AIDS took a measurable toll.Today, she argues, we are at risk from the misinformation, denial and deception of many current public officials right here in the U.S.Dr. Yasmin joins Ed Luce of the Financial Times and Ryan Goodman of Just Security and NYU Law School for a discussion of where we are in this global crisis, where it is likely to go, and how to contain the spread of deadly

2020/03/23

While the debate about managing the pandemic has grown more rancorous in recent days as death tolls have climbed and states have lamented the unresponsiveness of the federal government, while on Capitol Hill the name calling has resumed, the virus is immune to politics.There is a right way and wrong way to manage a pandemic and the resulting economic and social crises it triggers.We discuss how to tell the difference and what lessons we should be learning and applying now with former Obama Admin

The Coronavirus Crisis is the first 50 state natural disaster in American history.And while it is certainly not the first for which the federal response was lacking, it may be the worst overall response of an administration to a major crisis in our history.The lies continue.Public confidence continues to erode.Vital supplies from tests to masks to ventilators remain out of reach for many.Coordination is weak.Signs of corruption are brewing.And the President and his team seem to be learning precious

From an explosion of e-commerce to a re-evaluation of the roll of government, a teaching moment for healthcare policy and geopolitical shocks and aftershocks, the COVID-19 crisis is going to leave the world changed in material ways.We won't be the same again.Kori Schake of the American Enterprise Institute, Ed Luce of the Financial Times and Host David Rothkopf look ahead to the near-term and lasting consequences of a crisis unlike any we have seen since World War II or perhaps since the Spanish Flu

There are countries and systems that are managing the COVID-19 crisis comparatively well.South Korea, which invested heavily and early in testing is one.Singapore, in the view of renowned infectious disease expert and Pulitzer Prize-winner Laurie Garrett, may be an even better one.Their testing is almost ubiquitous and trust in thegovernment's handling of the crisis is rock solid.Garrett, Just Security's Ryan Goodman and host David Rothkopf discuss what we can learn from these success and compare

In a moment that a global pandemic has you self-quarantined and social distancing and a global market collapse has you terrified about the future and bad leadership has you curled up on under your bed, there is only one perfect solution!Listening to a podcast.That's what's called finding the silver lining.Can we find them with the multiple calamities that have befallen us in the past few weeks (and years...well, since the dawn of time if you want to be accurate)?That's one of the things we discuss

We don't raise an eyebrow when Trump lies.Most of his early lies were of little consequence, about his wealth or sexual prowess or intellect.But in recent weeks, in the midst of the first major International crisis the president has faced (that he did not himself create), we have seen those lies turned into potential weapons of mass destruction.By minimizing the consequences of a global pandemic, many can die, markets can lose faith in public officials, economies can falter.We discuss this

After 20 years, the US is trying its best to get out of Dodge in Afghanistan.Trouble is the not-quite-a-peace-deal announced over the weekend fell apart on Monday.The US got out of Syria and now that country is on the verge of what may be a new and horrific humanitarian crisis.By the end of the year, it seems, everyone everywhere may have coronavirus and we're only beginning to understand the consequences of that...or the lengths to which the Trump Administration will lie about what's happening.And

Donald Trump has made narcissism the central organizing principle of his government.It used to be said institutions were the lengthened shadow of one man.In the case of the US governmenttoday it is the lengthened shadow of one man's psychopathology.Every decision, every action turns on whether Trump and those close to him feel it is good or bad for him personally.And half of America is cool with him shattering norms of law and good governance because they feel DC is broken and doesn't work for them

Donald Trump is remaking the U.S. government in ways that make you less safe, make our justice system less fair, put our democracy at greater risk.This past week we have seen manifold examples of the Trump method for putting down opposition, twisting the facts, suppressing intelligence, culling experts and independent thinkers and doing it all constantly to a devastating cumulative effect.Kori Schake of AEI, Rosa Brooks of Georgetown Law and Joe Cirincione of the Ploughshares Fund discuss this and

Donald Trump is purging his cabinet of expertise and those who place loyalty to the Constitution above that to Trump personally.In the intelligence community, State Department, Justice Department, Department of Defense and the National Security Council we have seen an exodus of talent and a message delivered to all who remain that is positively chilling.Don't raise awareness of threats like Russian election interference because Trump does not want to hear it is just one example.Also: with breaking

You may think that all Donald Trump thinks about is himself.Or his latest grift.Or cheeseburgers.But when you look at his recent behavior, it looks like even with impeachment behind him, our president saves most of his bandwidth for the land of Tchaikovsky, Putin and borscht.He shoved aside his acting Director of National Intelligence in a fit of pique over a Congressional briefing from a top IC official saying Russia was planning to interfere in the 2020 elections and do so, again, on Trump's

It would seem like 2020 would be offering a great opportunity for Democrats what with the president being historical unpopular and perhaps the most corrupt and worst president in U.S. history.But still, Democrats will be Democrats and even with urgency and opportunity looming large, they seem dedicated to the idea of blowing their chances sky high.We discuss how they are doing that and speculate as to why and where all this will lead.Is it already Bernie vs. Bloomberg in the main event?Where might

In 2016, Russia not only helped elected Donald Trump, they also assured Americans would never again be able to look at election resultswith the same trust they had in the past.If anything, actions by them, the Administration, other bad actors and incompetent administrators have raised unease about what we might expect in this year's election cycle.Beyond that, risks we have focused on in the past, like terrorism, might manifest themselves again--perhaps from dangerous, white supremacist sources.Are
