The next chapter of America’s history is being written at a time of extraordinary political strain, both globally and here at home. The war in Iran is rewriting America’s future. As the 2026 midterm elections rapidly approach, what is the state of our democracy, and how is America’s shifting approach to foreign policy impacting allies and rivals alike? Politician and diplomat Rahm Emanuel has tackled these questions from every level of government — as an Ambassador to Japan, a U.S. congressman, and Chief of Staff to President Barack Obama. He joins renowned political scientist Ian Bremmer, founder and president of Eurasia Group and GZERO Media, for a spirited conversation at this critical moment. This program will be filmed for release as a special episode of the weekly global affairs program GZERO World with Ian Bremmer, airing nationally on PBS stations.
