Summary

Earlier this week, the Biden administration sent a response to Russia's demands with regards to Ukraine and the Russians have balked. What happens now? What are the most likely Russian military responses? How do the Russian Oligarchs below Putin fit into all of this. DSR Host David Rothkopf discusses these and other questions with Mark Hertling, former Commanding General of United States Army Europe, and Tom Nichols of the Atlantic. In our members-only bonus segment, co-host Dr. Kavita Patel joins along with former federal prosecutor Harry Litman and host of the Words Matter Podcast Katie Barlow to discuss the bombshell news of Justice Breyer's retirement. What does this mean for the court? Who might succeed him? How smooth will the confirmation process be for Biden's ultimate nominee? Become a member to find out!
