Episode 382: Trump 2.0: What’s in Store for U.S. National Security
Description
Today, Morgan, Martha, Les, and Amy discuss the results of the 2024 presidential election and its implications for U.S. national security.

Check out the answers to these questions and more in this episode of Fault Lines.
