Co-hosts Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman discuss the position the United States has in the world both diplomatically and militarily now that Tulsi Gabbard was confirmed to Trump's cabinet.

They finish on a report that indicates the economic picture Biden and Harris tried to present during the campaign wasn't nearly as rosy as they depicted it.
