My guest today is Matt Duss. Matt is the foreign policy advisor of Senator Bernie Sanders and one of the most prominent protagonists of a progressive US foreign policy. Before joining the Sanders team, he was president of the Foundation for Middle East Peace and a Senior Policy Analyst at the Center for American Progress. He tweets at @mattduss.
We talk about the US withdrawal from Afghanistan, the US foreign policy establishment, and the challenge of creating a progressive US foreign policy.
