Show Notes

• After a democratic socialist won a primary in New York, some saw it as a sign that the Democratic Party is shifting too far to the left. But the chair of the national party said the winner, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, is “the future of our party.”
• German Chancellor Angela Merkel was in a bind over immigration that could have cost her the leadership of Germany. But she has negotiated a compromise that put off the day of reckoning—for now.
• Mexico voted in a new president who wants to solve the problem with the drug cartels by softening military options in a strategy he has nicknamed “Hugs Not Bullets.”
• The Taliban in Afghanistan is getting better trained and better armed, thanks to an infusion of support from Iran.
• We’ll also talk about China trying to increase its power to match its rhetoric, Japan’s nervousness over China’s power, and signs that the Iran nuclear deal is in trouble.
