Foreign policy insider David Rothkopf joins Joanna Coles for a blistering deep-dive into Donald Trump's high-stakes summit with Vladimir Putin in Alaska—and the dangerous implications for Ukraine, Europe, and global security. From Trump's flattery-fueled diplomacy and one-on-one meetings with no note takers, to Putin's KGB-honed manipulation tactics, Rothkopf exposes a portrait of ego, opportunism, and geopolitical risk. With insider accounts, sharp analysis, and startling parallels to past encounters, this episode unpacks how one man's insecurities and ambitions could shape the fate of nations. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

As if Trump's authoritarian transgressions weren't already blatant, the President has now deployed National Guard troops to “protect” our nation's capital - but we know these actions are politically motivated. Why haven't media pundits treated this actions as existential threats to our democracy? Why is a Subway sandwich-wielding protestor treated more harshly than January 6th protestors? And what is going on with Laura Loomer and Arby's? Tune in to this week's edition of Words Matter as David Rothkopf and Norm Ornstein tackle all of this and more.

MSNBC's Ari Melber hosts “The Beat” on Thursday, June 19, and reports on President Trump's Iran policy and the growing resistance against his administration. Plus, rapper Warren G and MSNBC's Alex Wagner join Melber for the latest “Fallback” installment. Chai Komanduri and David Rothkopf also join the program.

The Daily Beast's David Rothkopf joins Joanna Coles to unpack the chaos behind Israel's strike on Iran—and the confusion inside the the Trump administration's response. From Marco Rubio claiming America had nothing to do with Israel's attack, to Trump scrambling to take credit, Rothkopf lays out why nobody seems to know who approved what, or when. He explains why Trump's “deal guy” approach to foreign policy has failed everywhere from Gaza to Ukraine, and why Trump's inner circle of golf buddies and yes-men leaves America weaker and more isolated than ever. Rothkopf calls Trump “the most impotent president in living memory”—and warns that our enemies are laughing. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
