This week, as Portland pushes back against Trump's attempt to send in National Guard troops, and with Jimmy Kimmel back on air, Christiane and Jamie debate whether the President is losing some of his fear factor - and warn against the possibility of the White House ordering the military to carry out illegal orders at this week's summit of top brass in Virginia.Christiane also reveals what top politicians and diplomats were telling her behind the scenes at last week's UN General Assembly in New York - particularly on the prospect of a peace deal in the Middle East - and Jamie explains why Trump might finally have worked out that Vladimir Putin is the problem which needs solving when it comes to ending the war in Ukraine. Later, Christiane tells us what really happened with 'escalator-gate' - and we're off to the movies for this week's Recommendations.
