Coming up on Washington Week with The Atlantic:

Countdown to New Hampshire and Retaliation in the Middle East: With just days until New Hampshire’s presidential primary election, tension is growing between Republican rivals former President Donald Trump and former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley. Trump, fresh off his win in Iowa and leading in the polls, is weighing possible vice presidential running mates, including Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY), Gov. Kristi Noem (R-SD) and former Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy. 

Meanwhile, concerns about the war in Gaza expanding into a wider regional conflict are mounting after Iran’s recent strikes in Iraq and Pakistan. And in the Red Sea, Iranian-backed Houthi rebel attacks on international shipping show no signs of stopping, despite the U.S. and its allies continuing to strike sites in Yemen.

Joining editor in chief of The Atlantic and moderator, Jeffrey Goldberg to discuss this and more:

  • Eugene Daniels, White House Correspondent, Politico and Co-Author, “Playbook”
  • Adam Harris, Staff Writer, The Atlantic
  • Asma Khalid, White House Correspondent, NPR and Political Contributor, ABC News
  • Nancy Youssef, National Security Correspondent, The Wall Street Journal

Major funding for “Washington Week with The Atlantic” is provided by Consumer Cellular, the estate of Arnold Adams, the Yuen Foundation, Sandra and Carl DeLay-Magnuson, Rose Hirschel and Andy Shreeves, Robert and Susan Rosenbaum, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, and PBS.
