## Resource

President Donald J. Trump heads to Beijing for high-stakes talks with Xi Jinping as tensions with Iran continue to escalate. Todd breaks down why the Iranian nuclear threat is far more serious than many in the media want to admit, why politics should stop at the water’s edge, and what happens if Iran’s missile capabilities remain intact. Todd also explains why the United States is entering negotiations with China from a stronger position than we’ve seen in years — thanks to energy independence, shifting global supply chains, and renewed American leverage. From Taiwan to tariffs to the Strait of Hormuz, this episode connects the dots on the geopolitical battles shaping America’s future.
