Video: Dispatch Live on Ukraine and State of the Union

Watch the video of our weekly live-streamed conversation.

Dispatch Live returned on Tuesday with more coverage and analysis of Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine and a preview of President Joe Biden’s first State of the Union address.

Jonah and David kicked things off talking about the first six days of Putin’s war, and their discussion was bolstered by viewer questions, like this one from Matt C: “If Putin starts resorting to Syrian-style mass bombings in densely populated areas, how should the West respond?”

Sarah jumped in about halfway through, and it was time to preview David and Jonah’s least favorite political event of the year. Do State of the Union addresses actually matter? What tone should Biden try to strike? Will anyone believe him if he says the state of the union is strong?
