VIDEO with Josh Cowen and Ambassador Bridget Brink

from The Forum with Josh Cowen Podcast · host Josh Cowen and Bridget Brink for Congress

I had a chance to sit down at the end of last week with Bridget Brink, who served as Ambassador to Ukraine under President Biden—the first woman to serve as ambassador in a war zone. Bridget is now running for Congress back home in Michigan, in a district that could determine control of the House. We talked about Trump’s war in Iran, and what Putin’s ongoing aggression in Ukraine means both for international security and for Americans every day. We also covered Bridget’s campaign—why she’s running, and what she’ll do once she gets to Washington. I couldn’t help myself: I also had to ask her about Netflix’s hit show The Diplomat.
