About this episode
The episode discusses the implications of the expiration of the New START treaty between the US and Russia and the lack of public concern regarding it.
The administration dismissed concerns about the last nuclear treaty between the US and Russia formally expiring last week. But even if this isn’t an exceptionally dangerous moment in itself, the end of New START reflects an incredibly disturbing trend.
