Peter and Susan explain why, despite the serious national security implications of Signalgate and the long knives being out for both Pete Hegseth and Michael Waltz, there's a decent chance that both will keep their jobs; Steve Witkoff is entirely out of his depth serving as Trump's envoy to Russia in the effort to end the war in Ukraine; and the decision to nix Elise Stefanik's bid to be U.S. ambassador to the United Nation is a clear sign that the GOP's political standing is increasingly imperiled. Peter and Susan also reflect on the myriad unnerving ways in which Trump's Washington reminds them of Moscow 25 years ago, when both were based there covering the dawn of the Putin era.
