41:21Now PlayingToday we’re taking an UNFILTERED look at what is no doubt a new nuclear moment in American history. Do our allies still trust us? What is the current administration doing to further nuclear nonproliferation? Amy speaks with Adam Scheinman, former Special Representative of the President for Nuclear Nonproliferation within the Bureau of International Security at the State Department about the current state of our nuclear affairs.
Together, they unpacked:
The unraveling of U.S. alliances and why allies are questioning whether America will still protect them.
China’s nuclear buildup: doubling its arsenal in just four years and showing no signs of slowing down.
The “Golden Dome” missile defense plan and whether it could trigger a new arms race instead of preventing one.
AI and nuclear command: how automation could shorten decision times and raise catastrophic risks.
The collapse of diplomacy with the State Department hollowed out and no senior officials managing arms control.
Why arms control still matters and how 60 years of treaties kept the world from crossing the unthinkable line.
