Livestream: America’s Humiliating Surrender to Iran
Featuring Tom Nichols and Sarah Matthews.
A very special livestream featuring The Atlantic’s Tom Nichols in conversation with Sarah Matthews. Covering the Trump administration’s surrender to Iran, the damage to US prestige and power around the world, and how this undermines American democracy.
Tom is a staff writer at The Atlantic and a contributor to the Atlantic Daily newsletter. He is the author of “The Death of Expertise” and “Our Own Worst Enemy,” and professor emeritus at the US Naval War College, where he focused on Russia, nuclear weapons, and national security.
Sarah is an advisory board member and spokeswoman for Home of the Brave. She previously served as deputy White House press secretary during Trump’s first term, and she resigned in protest on January 6, 2021.
Home of the Brave exists to show Americans the real-world consequences of this administration’s policies, and to highlight what bravery looks like in defense of American democracy.



Thank you for your commitment, integrity, clarity, and efforts on behalf of our former democratic republic. Since we no longer reside in "The Land of the Free", there is wisdom in your preference for "Home of the Brave" as the name for your newsletters and other content.
Excellent show.
