- A wild week in American politics ends with the U.S. Senate tied 50-50, Joe Biden certified as the nation’s president-elect, the left calling for a second impeachment of Donald Trump, and a return to law and order.
- Iran has begun the process of enriching uranium up to 20 percent purity, which could reduce the time it needs to produce a nuclear weapon from three months to as little as six weeks.
- Meanwhile, Germany is selling record levels of arms to several Middle Eastern countries that are opposed to Iran. It is helping to turn the region into a battle zone between two camps.
- We also talk about how Europe’s difficulties in containing coronavirus are creating mass dissatisfaction and political crisis, Russia’s neighbors arming to defend themselves against Moscow, and a completely overlooked victory for the Trump administration.
