officially replacing her predecessor boris johnson. we ll have a live report from london. president biden hitting the midterm trail for pennsylvania s john fetterman and critical moment for the senate campaign with questions about fetterman s health persisting. we re on trump subpoena watch. the january 6 committee prepares to exert pressure on the former president just day after being deposed in a defamation lawsuit linked to a rape allegation. good day to you, i m peter alexander in for andrea mix will. we re following breaking news. liz truss is out at 10 downing street just about six weeks after receiving permission from queen elizabeth to form a government that immediately took a political nosedive thanks to a series of economic measures there that roild the markets through inflation into overdrive and turned british public opinion sharply against her. truss conservative party is expected to name a replacement within the next week. and in just the last hour from the
italian record of instability. downing street has turned into a revolving door. the notion that the conservative party will come up with a unity party is fanciful. the party is deeply split between people who think that what s wrong with britain is pop u lichl has not been tried. just let that sink in. hasn t been tried. and another part of the party that believes that the reason britain s is in such trouble is because of this. this is impossible. and, therefore, the next british prime minister isn t going to have much longer a shelf life than liz truss did. so we re going to dive into more details there in a moment. but ambassador, i want to bring you into this. what it means for the u.s. and for our european allies, specifically as it relates to the share of war effort right now in support of ukraine. how will this negatively impact
relationship is too important to really, you know, mess with too much. but, you know, the big question will be what happens when biden and johnson get before the other g-7 leaders? they re the ones who are the ones who are really abused by trump. they re the ones that had tariffs and trade restrictions placed on them by the trump administration. they want to get rid of right now and they re the ones who are really looking for biden to say, no, no. the we re not going to head towards nativism and pop u lichl and nationalism, we re going to he institute internationalism as the guiding force. and can biden do that? we don t know. is johnson going to go along with that? we don t know. and will the europeans believe that biden administration when they say america is back, are we back? i think that remains to be seen. let me bring in nick robertson as well. he s been watching all of this play out. nick, just your reaction to kind of what this moment is, the fa is to fa
not the audience he s looking out at at the moment. what is the audience he perceives in his head. he showed since the start of his campaign to really be in touch with certain populists that others didn t have anything in common. one thing you find is americans think we waste a ton of money on is foreign aid. they have this idea that we are spending way too much money overseas. we re spending way too much money into bloated bureaucracies. it is less than 2% of our budget. this is a very strong feeling. so now here is donald trump i think playing to that kind of sent ment asent. and going over to europe and saying that. he is playing to fake names. he is playing to be the captain of a fake krit snik. the theater of pop u lichl is how you looks at it. this isn t theater.
