About this episode
Tommy & Ben break down Trump’s claim that the only thing that can constrain his use of US military, diplomatic and economic power is his “own morality” and “own mind” in a new New York Times interview. Also covered: Trump’s dismissal of international law, the global shift to “spheres of influence” and how Russia and China might be emboldened by Trump’s lawlessness, the Senate’s passage of the War Powers Resolution, comments that explain the real reason Trump wants to take Greenland, and his indifference over the prospect of a new nuclear arms race. Finally, why Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard was shut out of the Venezuela operation, and the moral vacuum that is JD Vance.
