Summary

The complex proxy war in Yemen has been raging for 7 years and has caused the world’s worst humanitarian crisis. But will President Biden offer a road to peace? Activist Tawakkol Karman, 2011 Nobel Peace Prize winner, and journalist Robert Worth join Christiane Amanpour to explain what it will take. Former FBI Special Agent Asha Rangappa says the Trump team's impeachment defense, that his speech was protected, does not hold water as a legal issue. She argues that his lawyers have an uphill battle. Then a burst of Italian food and culture – a new CNN series, "Stanley Tucci: Searching for Italy," sees the actor touring Italy and sampling local cuisine. He explains what he discovered along the way. Turning back to the Capitol attack and a sinister video that was played at the March to Save America Rally on January 6th; Jason Stanley is an expert on fascist propaganda and he says the video was just that. The author of “How Fascism Works” breaks down the video bit by bit with our Hari Sreenivasan.
