by The Tucker Carlson Show [5-28-2024 published].
(Jeffrey Sachs provides incredible insights, without the political spin, about the United States hegemon that goes back many decades and how it is negatively affecting our place in the world. He has had a front row seat working with many world leaders. His hands-on interactions lend more credibility to the observations shared with Tucker Carlson. He also acknowledges the many times he has had to adjust his understanding when realizing that those in charge aren't always thinking about 'peace' and the greater good for their country and the world. This long interview is filled with insights that will help us understand and navigate the many world changes taking place in the coming years. — RAD)
