Governor Gavin Newsom sits down with Ian Bremmer, president of Eurasia Group, founder of GZEROMedia, and one of the most influential geopolitical analysts in the world. Together they assess whether the United States is still seen as a reliable global partner.
Bremmer breaks down how President Trump is reshaping alliances, why U.S. foreign policy feels increasingly improvisational, and how adversaries like Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin exploit American dysfunction.
They also examine the administration’s Middle East strategy, whether the U.S. is quietly pursuing regime change in Venezuela and whether our fear of Artificial Intelligence can be solved by good political leadership.
