Washington is more hectic than ever, with seemingly historic events happening weekly, if not daily. How does an Israeli look at all of this? Or the current state of the U.S. relationship amid rising challenges on both the Left and Right? Trump's effect on the situation in general? Jumping over to Israel, what is day-to-day life like in the West Bank? Or Gaza?

For this episode, I talk to Amir Tibon, who is currently the Haaretz Washington correspondent and co-author of the book, "The Last Palestinian: The Rise and Reign of Mahmoud Abbas." He is originally from the kibbutz of Nahal Oz, one of the closest Israeli villages to Gaza.

Favorite Podcast: "The Axe Files," and the "Haaretz Weekly"
