Tommy and Ben discuss the discovery of six Israeli hostages killed by Hamas, protests in Israel demanding Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu agree to a ceasefire and hostage release deal, how Biden's rhetoric about Gaza gives Netanyahu political cover, and the challenges of the UN's Polio vaccination rollout in Gaza. They also talk about what an election win for Germany's far-right AfD party means for the country's political future, why a former aide to NY Governor Kathy Hochul is being charged with working as a foreign agent for China, why X (Twitter) was blocked in Brazil, a controversial effort to reform Mexico's judicial system, the shooting of Ugandan opposition leader Bobi Wine, and the Taliban's ban on women speaking in public in Afghanistan. Then, Ben speaks to Tom Perriello, the US Special Envoy to Sudan about the negotiations he led to address the world's worst hunger crisis.
