Summary

Legendary journalist Bob Woodward dives into his latest book War, which pulls back the curtain on U.S. foreign policy and reveals what’s really going on behind the scenes. The book also gives us a closer look at President Biden's leadership and the relationship between VP Harris and the president. Woodward shares his thoughts on the state of journalism today, why context matters in reporting, how Biden’s foreign policy stacks up against past presidents, and who falls short. He also talks about Biden’s complex relationship with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, the role of Kamala Harris in shaping U.S. foreign policy, and the lasting impact of Trump’s ties with Putin.
