8/7/20 Kingston Reif on the Growing Nuclear Tensions Between the US, Russia and China

Kingston Reif talks about the imminent lapse of the New START treaty, one of the last remaining nuclear safeguard agreements between the U.S. and Russia. Russia has made some moves to renegotiate the treaty, but the Trump administration has refused to do so, ostensibly in the name of making it much more restrictive, and of including China in the negotiations.

Scott talks to Stephen Zunes about Susan Rice, one of the leading candidates for Joe Biden's VP pick. Rice fits Biden's criteria in that she's a black woman with political experience, but Zunes raises serious concerns about her track record. In particular, Rice turned out to be one of the most hawkish Democrats during her time in the Clinton and Obama administrations, and she played a role in pushing for America's invasion of Iraq in 2003.
