Show Notes

  • In Washington, Nancy Pelosi has asked for a draft of articles of impeachment, and invoked the United States Declaration of Independence, effectively declaring a coup against President Donald Trump.
  • Officials from France, Germany and Britain stepped forward to criticize Iran for developing nuclear-capable ballistic missiles in violation of the Iran nuclear deal.
  • Vladimir Putin’s goal of rebuilding the Soviet Union moved forward, as he and leaders from Belarus prepare to establish a single government by 2021, the supranational “Union State of Russia and Belarus.”
  • We’ll also talk about mounting difficulties facing the governing coalition in Germany—Russia and China cooperating on a massive new gas pipeline between the two countries—and NATO’s 70th anniversary showing widening fractures in the trans-Atlantic alliance—and struggles over rising anti-Semitism in Europe.
