How Trump's purges weaken the CIA & Russian ship on fire after drone hit

How Trump's purges weaken the CIA & Russian ship on fire after drone hit

The original edit of this podcast episode stated that Europe was close to a trade deal with Russia. This was a misspeak and should have said Europe was close to a deal with China. Thank you to those who flagged this mistake, we are happy to correct the record.


Day 1,297.

Today, we dive into Donald Trump’s campaign of revenge against CIA officials and into new and upcoming sanctions against Russia as pressure continues to mount following the drone incursion into the Polish airspace. And finally, we hear the second part of David Knowles’s work on the fight against corruption Ukraine, recorded shortly before his death.
