united states and around the world. i m fareed zakaria. today on the program president putin s most formidable political rival was locked two ed up two years ago. but he still has a voice, his message carried on by his inner circle that inspires russia s opposition movement. i have an exclusive interview with his daughter, dasha, on the state of her father and his mission to bring democracy to russia. and what might befall the world in 2023? ian bremmer will lay out the biggest political risk of the new year. the biggest risk is putin, agenting as the most powerful rogue state in history. and we ll have the economic outlook. but first, here is my take. it was hard not to be fixated on the drama that unfolded in the house of representatives this week, when the republican party had a nervous breakdown in full public view. this crisis was entirely of the party s own making. for decades, it has whipped its base into a righteous fury, by promising radical policies th
