Coming soon: China, Israel & Taliban vs. USA? (Full show)

In the wake of the US withdrawal from Afghanistan, Beijing sees a deepening influence. But to get to the war-torn country’s tremendous mineral wealth, Beijing is forced to trust the Taliban. Meanwhile RT America’s John Huddy reports on the emerging partnerships in the region. Tobin Smith of Transformity Research joins Scottie Nell Hughes to share his insights. He argues that China and the Taliban “play the long game” and that the US “plays the short game” at a heavy price.

Then Steve Malzberg, host of “Eat the Press,” joins Scottie Nell Hughes to discuss Twitter’s apparent hypocrisy in allowing spokespeople for the Taliban to make use of the platform and Washington’s failure to reign in the power of social media platforms to manipulate the public discourse and selectively silence its users.

Plus, RT America’s Natasha Sweatte reports on new breakthroughs in the development of fusion power before RT America’s Trinity Chavez reports on Jeff Bezos’ bringing suit against NASA for being “improper and unlawful” in its coveted Moon-landing contract to Elon Musk of SpaceX.
