rescuing again. i ll ask one of the people who was at the center of the storm the last time around, the former ceo of goldman sachs lloyd blankfein about whether the system is stable, and is your bank account safe? also, how did it come to this? did we learn the wrong lessons the last time? i ll talk to julian tet of the financial times. then don t mess with the french people s retirement plans. that s the lesson from weeks of strikes and protests and then chaos in parliament as the government pushed through their policy anyway. [ speaking non-english ] which brought the outrage right back to the streets. we ll tell you what you need to know. but first, here s my take. on his trip to saudi arabia last year president biden made an emphatic declaration about u.s. policy in the middle east. he said we will not walk away and leave a vacuum to be filled by china, russia or iran. last week s reproachment between saudi arabia and iran brokered by china suggests that th
