First, Fareed gives his take on the populist war on central banks.
President Trump is at the vanguard of populist leaders undermining the independence of central banks, reversing a decades-long trend of apolitical policymaking, Fareed says; over time, central banks' "credibility will be eroded, their effectiveness will wane, and then one day, when the next crisis hits, we will all wish we had institutions that could weather the storm."
Next, we'll discuss the string of bombings that have claimed hundreds of lives at churches and hotels in Sri Lanka on Easter with CNN national-security analyst Peter Bergen.
After that, we'll delve into the the Mueller report. We'll talk legal implications with Bob Bennett, who represented president Bill Clinton during the Ken Starr investigation, and Harvard legal scholar Larry Tribe; then, we'll discuss its Russian intersections with Susan Glasser, of The New Yorker and CNN, and Andrey Kortunov of the Russian International Affairs Council.
Our What in the World segment will examine why China is winning the race to 5G dominance; noted climate activist Bill McKibben will talk about his new book, Falter: Has the Human Game Begun to Play Itself Out?, and climate urgency 49 years after the first Earth Day in 1970; and economist Joseph Stiglitz will discuss how to fix inequality and his new book, People, Power, and Profits: Progressive Capitalism for an Age of Discontent. | |
