Today on the show, in a special edition of GPS from the Aspen Ideas Festival, Fareed speaks with two former national security advisers, John Bolton and Susan Rice, and former CIA Director/US Army retired Gen. David Petraeus about the Trump administration’s foreign policy, including the future of Iran’s regime and the state of America’s global alliances.
Next, architect Vishaan Chakrabarti and scholar Marc Dunkelman talk with Fareed about why progressives struggle to build the infrastructure necessary to improve the cities that they run.
Then, New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman tells Fareed the three factors he thinks are crucial for understanding the politics of today’s Middle East.
Finally, Fareed and Walter Isaacson, historian and biographer, discuss the growing wealth inequality across the US and what else —besides wealth — is necessary to build good societies.
