As the stakes of a razor-thin U.S. election couldn’t be higher, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi joined Christiane in London where she was whipping up votes from Democrats overseas. She warned of the unprecedented implications for American democracy and called the leverage given to the Netanyahu government by the White House "most destructive." Then, Leslie Vinjamuri of Chatham House in London and Democratic strategist Simon Rosenberg break down how U.S. allies are preparing for the results of the U.S. presidential election, and why Democrats remain hopeful about Kamala Harris' chances despite the tightening polls. Director Ali Abbasi discusses his new film, The Apprentice, chronicling Trump’s rise and the battle to get it released in U.S. theaters. Plus, as Trump calls for the death penalty for drug dealers, Ivan Watson goes inside Singapore’s Changi Prison to examine the policy from up close. From the archives, Yuval Bitton shares rare insights into Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar's extremist thinking. And finally, the goddess of pop Cher is inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
