Hey everybody, Friedberg here. What you're about to hear is a panel discussion from our All In Summit recorded in LA on September 10th. We're going to publish some of the best conversations once a week over the next month.

One of the most influential and controversial thinkers in the world.
He is known as one of the world's leading experts on economic development. One of the most famous political scientists in history. We're talking about moral and political principles here. I would suggest that all four wars could be ended quickly.
Great power politics is now back on the table.
If we are anything as a world community, we have to implement what we've said.
I'm excited for this panel. We're going to talk about foreign policy. We have, I think, two of the most interesting, eminent, renowned thinkers about foreign policy, Professor John Mearsheimer from University of Chicago and Professor Jeffrey Sachs from Columbia. So great to have you guys here today. It's a big world, and there's a lot of things happening, so let's just jump into it.
The big news over the past week was that Dick Cheney endorsed Kamala Harris for president. I think for people who see the world in partisan political terms, this might have been surprising, but I don't think that you guys were that surprised by that. Do you see an underlying logic to this? Jeff, why don't I start with you?
I think it's obvious. There's basically one deep state party. And that is the party of Cheney, Harris, Biden, Victoria Nuland, my colleague at Columbia University now. And Nuland is kind of the face of all of this because she has been in every administration for the last 30 years. She was in the Clinton administration wrecking our policies towards Russia in the 1990s.
She was in the Bush administration, junior, with Cheney. wrecking our policies towards NATO enlargement. She was in then the Obama administration as Hillary's spokesperson first and then making a coup in Ukraine in February 2014, not a great move, started a war. Then she was Biden's Under Secretary of State. Now that's both parties.
