Interviews with: National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, GOP candidate Chris Christie, Sen. Mark Kelly
About this episode
First, Jake Tapper and National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan look at how deepening rifts in Congress are shaping defense priorities as Biden signals a drawn out war in Ukraine. Then, with the Iowa caucuses just six months away, new numbers reveal GOP voters' views on the field. Jake goes one-on-one with GOP Presidential candidate Chris Christie who speaks frankly about Trump's "lie" and flamboyant claim that his own recent indictments are "a great badge of honor and courage." Later, as the impact of the climate crisis is felt around the country with excessive temperatures and extreme weather events, Senator Mark Kelly joins from Arizona to discuss whether these increasing climate disasters might finally change minds on Capitol Hill. Finally, this week’s panel break down newly released GOP fundraising numbers and how they will reshape the race.
