Episode Details

In a sharp blow to PM Benjamin Netanyahu’s government, Benny Gantz, a key member of Israel’s war cabinet, resigned his post this weekend in protest of the lack of a plan to win the peace in Gaza. While the move — which came with a call for new elections — is unlikely to force Netanyahu from power, Gantz’s departure has significant implications for both Israel and the U.S. Foreign affairs correspondent and columnist Nahal Toosi joins Playbook co-author Eugene Daniels to walk through what you need to know. Plus, Vice President Kamala Harris shifts her focus, and former President Donald Trump upstages his own policy announcement with remarks about the Jan. 6 attackers during his first post-conviction rally.
