Today on the show, former Danish PM Helle Thorning-Schmidt joins the show to discuss the Trump administration’s push to take over Greenland. She argues that the US could easily get more involved in the territory militarily without needing to take it over.

Next, Alexander Dugin, Russian philosopher and the man often referred to as “Putin’s brain,” speaks with Fareed about the growing alignment between US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin and why he believes the war in Ukraine is justified.

Then, Middle East expert Elisabeth Kendall talks with Fareed about the leaked Signal chat among top US officials and whether America will be able to achieve its goal of defeating the Houthis in Yemen.

Finally, as the April 2 deadline for President Trump’s retaliatory tariffs approaches, former US Trade Representative Michael Froman speaks with Fareed about the possible consequences of these tariffs and how he thinks Trump is trying to transform the American economy.
