Amid a government shutdown, is our national security at risk?
The United States faces urgent questions about how to protect its democracy at home and its leadership abroad. As new threats challenge traditional defenses, what roles must the military and Congress play in safeguarding the institutions that define us?

Featuring: Chuck Hagel, former senator and secretary of defense; Rep. Don Bacon (R-NE), House Armed Services Committee member; Rep. Jason Crow (D-CO), House Intelligence Committee member.
Moderated by Jasmine Wright, NOTUS White House correspondent and Daniella Diaz, NOTUS congressional reporter.
