In this weekend's episode, three segments from this past week's Washington Journal.
First: We speak with Representative Adam Smith -- top Democrat on the Armed Services Committee -- about ongoing conflict in Iran – now nearing the one-month mark.
Then: we turn our attention to another global hotspot: CUBA – and President Trump’s continued threats targeting the leadership of THAT country. We speak with Cuba expert Professor William LeoGrande from American University about what he’s watching.
Then: As the annual Conservative Political Action Committee convention continues this weekend, HENRY OLSEN – podcast host and Senior Fellow with the Ethics and Public Policy Center -- discusses how the Republican party is reacting to U.S. involvement in Iran – and what it could mean for upcoming midterms.
