Fareed speaks to former British Prime Minister and current WHO Ambassador for Global Health Financing Gordon Brown about the G20 meeting in Rome and what needed to be resolved on COVID-19, climate change and more. Then, Fareed sits down with Zalmay Khalilzad, Former U.S. Special Rep. for Afghanistan Reconciliation, to discuss the lessons learned from the U.S. withdrawal and the future of the war-torn nation. Plus, Stephanie Kelton, Prof. of Public Policy & Economics at Stony Brook University and author of the book "The Deficit Myth," explains why we shouldn’t be worried about the price tags on the Biden bills awaiting votes in Congress. Lastly, Fareed examines how Trump’s “big lie” political playbook is being adopted by the president of Brazil as he tries to cling to political power.
