94. Trump’s Taking Us To War: US Bombs Iran

In this episode of "The Rest Is Politics US," Katty Kay and Anthony Scaramucci analyze the political fallout of recent strikes against Iran, drawing parallels to the 2003 invasion of Iraq and questioning the long-term strategy behind the current administration's actions. They discuss the potential success of the strikes, Iran's possible retaliation, and the division within MAGA world regarding the situation. The conversation also covers the implications for international relations, including the roles of Russia, China, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar, and the potential impact on American interests and the global economy, particularly concerning the Strait of Hormuz. They further explore the competence and experience of the current administration's team, the reorganization of counterterrorism units within the FBI, and the broader implications of the "might is right" approach in foreign policy.
