They also explore how death tolls are systematically undercounted, how Palestinian voices are censored in Western media, why Israeli hasbara no longer works, and how genocidal logic is rationalized through propaganda. 🇵🇸 Follow Mouin on Substack: https://substack.com/@mouinrabbani 🇵🇸 Follow Mouin on Twitter: https://x.com/MouinRabbani 0:00-9:55 The Illusion of Negotiations 9:55-21:54 Weaponization of Aid and the "Gaza Humanitarian Foundation" 21:54-25:24 Genocide as Eugenics 25:24-30:15 Undercounting Deaths 30:15-37:49 Media Censorship of Palestinian Voices 37:49-41:21 The Collapse of Israeli Hasbara 41:21-50:33 Genocidal Rhetoric and International Law 🦩SUBSCRIBE TO CURRENT AFFAIRS MAGAZINE: https://www.currentaffairs.org/membership 🦩 PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/c/CurrentAffairs 🦩THE MYTH OF AMERICAN IDEALISM: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/738224/the-myth-of-american-idealism-by-noam-chomsky-and-nathan-j-robinson/…

He served as Singapore’s Ambassador to the United Nations and as President of the UN Security Council, and is the author of books including "Has China Won?" and "Has the West Lost It?" Mahbubani joins Current Affairs to explain why the United States is losing ground to China--not because of Chinese aggression, but because of internal dysfunction, elite failure, and strategic incoherence. He critiques the emotional, zero-sum mindset dominating U.S. foreign policy and calls for a more rational, cooperative approach to global affairs. 🌏 Follow Kishore on Twitter: https://x.com/mahbubani_k 🌏 Buy Kishore's Books: https://mahbubani.net/books/ 0:00-3:57 The Good News 3:57- 6:54 Why Americans Fear China 6:54-9:51 The Failure of American Elites 9:51-15:31 Why Trump Should Work With China 15:31-21:38 Is China Communist? 21:38-23:37 Is America The Best Model? 23:37-27:14 Does America Think Strategically? 27:14-30:08 America's Wasteful Defense Spending 30:08-35:15 America's Strategic Errors 35:15-41:17 America's Disdain for the UN 41:17-46:17 The Potential For Cooperation 🦩SUBSCRIBE TO CURRENT AFFAIRS MAGAZINE: https://www.currentaffairs.org/membership 🦩 PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/c/CurrentAffairs 🦩THE MYTH OF AMERICAN IDEALISM: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/738224/the-myth-of-american-idealism-by-noam-chomsky-and-nathan-j-robinson/…

Ralph Nader is one of the most important and successful activists in American political history. He played a key role in creating the consumer rights movement in the 1960s and ’70s, and his push for auto safety regulation led to measures that saved countless lives. He has also run multiple insurgent campaigns for president, challenging the two-party system and offering powerful criticisms of corporate power. Nader joins Current Affairs to analyze Donald Trump’s authoritarianism, the Democratic Party’s failure to offer a compelling alternative, and the media’s role in narrowing public imagination. He also responds to Ezra Klein’s recent critique in Abundance, arguing that it shifts blame away from institutional failures and undermines genuine political accountability. 📣 Ralph's latest book, Civic Self Respect: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/718731/civic-self-respect-by-ralph-nader/ 📣 Ralph's website: https://nader.org/ 📣 Interview transcript: https://www.currentaffairs.org/news/ralph-nader-on 0:00–5:36 Trump’s Authoritarian Rule 5:36–10:39 What Deserves Our Focus Now 10:39–15:43 Democratic Party Malpractice 15:43–21:19 Ezra Klein’s Attack on Nader 21:19–29:45 How Ordinary People Build Power 29:45–38:39 Proven Victories by Citizen Action 38:39–45:58 Pessimism as a Tool of Control 45:58–52:28 Nader Reflects on His Life's Work 🦩SUBSCRIBE TO CURRENT AFFAIRS MAGAZINE: https://www.currentaffairs.org/membership 🦩 PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/c/CurrentAffairs 🦩THE MYTH OF AMERICAN IDEALISM: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/738224/the-myth-of-american-idealism-by-noam-chomsky-and-nathan-j-robinson/…

Katrina vanden Heuvel is the publisher and editorial director of The Nation, a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, and an advocate for diplomacy, disarmament, and international cooperation. She returns to Current Affairs to discuss the ongoing war in Ukraine, the erosion of U.S. diplomacy, and the bipartisan consensus around militarism. She outlines the details of the Quincy Institute’s U.S. peace plan, explains why diplomacy is often smeared as appeasement, and explores what a negotiated end to the war might actually look like. We also explore whether Trump, despite his transactional and erratic instincts, might paradoxically be the only figure capable of restarting peace talks. Nathan concludes with an analysis of the "security dilemma" and how the logic of militarism is driving a global arms race under the guise of self-defense. 🕊️ Read Katrina in The Nation: https://www.thenation.com/authors/katrina-vanden-heuvel/ 🕊️ Subscribe to The Nation: https://subscriptions.thenation.com/TNA/?f=Site01&s=F5X001 🕊️ The Quincy Institute's Peace Plan: https://quincyinst.org/research/a-u-s-peace-plan-for-ukraine/#executive-summary 0:00-5:15 Is Trump Interested In Peace? 5:15-17:05 The U.S. Peace Plan for Ukraine 17:21-26:53 Diplomacy vs. Appeasement 26:53-31:21 How Does The War End? 31:21-38:58 The Security Dilemma…

Andrew Cuomo is not just unfit for office—he’s dangerous. In this interview, Lindsey Boylan, the first woman to publicly speak out about Cuomo’s abusive behavior, explains how his pattern of harassment, retaliation, and intimidation mirrors the authoritarian tactics of Donald Trump. Boylan describes how Cuomo weaponized state resources, silenced critics, and surrounded himself with enablers, all while cultivating a media image of competence and compassion. This interview complements a larger piece by Nathan J. Robinson, editor of Current Affairs, on Cuomo’s deadly mishandling of COVID, corruption scandals, abuse of elderly prisoners, and his pro-corporate, pro-Israel, anti-worker agenda. Despite resigning in disgrace, Cuomo is now the frontrunner in the race for New York City mayor. Boylan’s warning is urgent: his abuses will continue unless we stop him now. 🗽 Watch Our Other Video on Cuomo: https://youtu.be/gYg-Ihd74pU 🗽 Read the AG's Investigation of Cuomo: https://ag.ny.gov/sites/default/files/2021.08.03_nyag_-_investigative_report.pdf 🗽 Read Nathan's Article on Cuomo: https://www.currentaffairs.org/news/andrew-cuomo-is-worse-than-you-even-know 🦩SUBSCRIBE TO CURRENT AFFAIRS MAGAZINE: https://www.currentaffairs.org/membership 🦩 PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/c/CurrentAffairs 🦩THE MYTH OF AMERICAN IDEALISM: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/738224/the-myth-of-american-idealism-by-noam-chomsky-and-nathan-j-robinson/…
