  • Is Trump Good for Israel?
    May 23 2025
    With Trump’s return to office, some have high hopes for his relationship with Israel. But amid the Gaza war, will his policies help? Those arguing “yes” say Trump has given Israel unprecedented backing and would continue shifting U.S. policy in favor of Israeli sovereignty and security. Those arguing “no” are concerned that his policies would result in trouble for Gaza and make a two-state solution less feasible. Now we debate: Is Trump Good for Israel? Arguing Yes: Einat Wilf, Former Member of Israeli "Knesset"; Co-author of "The War of Return" Arguing No: Jeremy Ben-Ami, Founder and President of J Street Emmy award-winning journalist John Donvan moderates Visit OpentoDebate.org to watch more insightful debates.

  • Can the U.S. Outpace China in AI Through Chip Controls?
    May 16 2025
    The AI revolution is underway, and the U.S. and China are racing to the top. At the heart of this competition are semiconductors—especially advanced GPUs that power everything from natural language processing to autonomous weapons. The U.S. is betting that export controls can help check China’s technological ambitions. But will this containment strategy work—or could it inadvertently accelerate China’s drive for self-sufficiency? Those who think chip controls will work argue that restricting China’s access gives the U.S. critical breathing room to advance AI safely, set global norms, and maintain dominance. Those who believe chip controls are inadequate, or could backfire, warn that domestic chipmakers, like Nvidia and Intel, also rely on sales from China. Cutting off access could harm U.S. competitiveness in the long run, especially if other countries don't fully align with U.S. policy. As the race for AI supremacy intensifies, we debate the question: Can the U.S. Outpace China in AI Through Chip Controls? Arguing Yes: Lindsay Gorman, Managing Director and Senior Fellow of the German Marshall Fund’s Technology Program; Venture Scientist at Deep Science Ventures Will Hurd, Former U.S. Representative and CIA Officer Arguing No: Paul Triolo, Senior Vice President and Partner at DGA-Albright Stonebridge Group Susan Thornton, Former Diplomat; Visiting Lecturer in Law and Senior Fellow at the Yale Law School Paul Tsai China Center Emmy award-winning journalist John Donvan moderates This debate was produced in partnership with Johns Hopkins University. This debate was recorded on May 14, 2025 at 6 PM at Shriver Hall, 3400 N Charles St Ste 14, in Baltimore, Maryland. Visit OpentoDebate.org to watch more insightful debates.

    May 9 2025
    The first 100 days of President Trump’s second term have come with a wide range of changes for the nation’s economy and global supply chains. Could these changes lead to a more prosperous America, or hardship for individuals and businesses? In partnership with Bloomberg, five renowned economists look at President Trump’s economic agenda during his first 100 days and discuss tariffs as a strategy, whether deregulation is good for growth, and whether the President's "medicine" means a recession. Jason Furman, Former Chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers; Professor at Harvard University’s John F. Kennedy School of Government Allison Schrager, Economist, Bloomberg Opinion Contributor & Senior Fellow at the Manhattan Institute Stephen Moore, Former Senior Economic Advisor to President Trump; Senior Fellow at the Heritage Foundation; Co-founder of Unleash Prosperity Mariana Mazzucato, Professor of Economics at University College London; Author of "Mission Economy" Jeff Ferry, Chief Economist Emeritus at the Coalition for a Prosperous America; Previous Tech Executive Mishal Husain, Editor-at-Large for Bloomberg Weekend, is the guest moderator.
