About this episode

As a ceasefire between Israel and Iran-backed group Hezbollah in Lebanon takes effect, Palestinians in Gaza feel increasingly abandoned without a similar deal for a truce with Hamas. We look at how President-elect Donald Trump might use tariffs on its three top trading partners as an economic weapon in the fight against the flow of fentanyl into the U.S. And President Joe Biden has proposed expanding coverage of anti-obesity drugs - but how might that work under Trump’s choice for health secretary?
