Bombshell

Because We Can Can Can


Listen Later

This week Bombshell is blessed by the return of Tamara Cofman Wittes to help everyone understand Iran’s possible motives in the strike on an Aramco facility and what Saudi Arabia might do next. And as a bonus she sticks around to dive into Israeli elections. Then Erin, Radha, and Loren take a deep, nerve-calming breath to dive into the current White House Mayhem: the ouster of John Bolton, the arrival of Robert O’Brien, and the whistleblower-Ukraine monstrosity.  Also, Erin saw Moulin Rouge and you should too, if you can can can.   Links Aramco Attacks Stephen Kalin, "," Reuters, September 21, 2019 Lara Seligman and Elias Groll, "," Foreign Policy, September 20, 2019 Suzanne Maloney, "," Washington Post, September 18, 2019 Eric Schmitt, Julian E.
