Are President Trump’s advisors lying to him about what’s happening with the Iran war? This week, Ian Bremmer, a political scientist and the President and founder of Eurasia Group, joins Preet to unpack the latest in Trump’s war with Iran. They discuss a potential ceasefire, whether Trump’s strategy to not back down will work, and how moral restraint comes into play on both sides…if at all. 

Then, Preet answers listener questions about journalist Katie Phang’s lawsuit seeking the release of the Epstein files and the legal challenges against Trump administration initiatives that Preet would like to take on.

In the bonus for Insiders, Preet and Bremmer discuss Trump’s White House meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Plus, Bremmer’s take on the future of artificial intelligence.
