1 小时 3 分钟My understanding is that Francesca Hong has made clear her present stances to her electorate.

It's Wednesday, August 19, 2026,
and welcome back to Goodfellows, a Hoover Institution broadcast examining history, economics, and geopolitics.
I'm Bill Whelan.
I'm a distinguished policy fellow here at the Hoover Institution.
I'll be your moderator today.
Looking forward to words of wisdom from three of my colleagues we call the Goodfellows.
I'm referring, of course, to former Presidential National Security Advisor,
Lieutenant General H.R. McMaster, the economist John Cochran.
And historian Sir Neil Ferguson.
And Neil, I mentioned you last instead of first because I want to personally thank you for sitting
in my chair and moderating the last show.
And I got the sense that you don't want to take over my job.
Well, moderation is not something I'm famous for in any sense of the word.
But you're so good at it, Bill, that it's absolutely, it's vanity.
It's les majestés to try to take your place.
But they made me do it.
