CNN anchor, Washington Post columnist and author Fareed Zakaria discusses his latest book, Ten Lessons for a Post-Pandemic World, assessing where the U.S. response has fallen short under both the Trump and Biden administrations and defining what he views as the long-term consequences.

Zakaria also analyzes current threats to democracy at home and abroad, including the build-up of Russian troops along the border of Ukraine and what he says would be a “red line” for military intervention.

As a young conservative at Yale University, Zakaria invited original Firing Line host William F. Buckley Jr. to campus to debate Sen. George McGovern in 1984 and was later a guest on Buckley’s program. He reflects on their relationship, the state of the current Republican Party and his own political journey toward the left.

Zakaria also engages in a spirited back-and-forth with current host Margaret Hoover about the legacy of her great-grandfather, former President Herbert Hoover.
