Video not available outside the USA, and yes, the rest of the world is very worried about Trump getting back into power.

It's available in my non-US country. Probably there's some local deal wherever you are (edit: using a restrictions checker app, the link is only blocked in Canada, UK, Australia, NZ, and Iceland, and available everywhere else)

They also go out of their way to put up whole episodes for non-US viewers (these are not available in the US) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QCRySbsLKiA

Just.... Why? Why make it avait everywhere EXCEPT Canada, UK, Australia, NZ.... I hate regional blocking, fuck everything about it. Yeah, yeah, VPN might fix that, but why do I need to fuck arout to get the same as everyone else?

Usually it's because they have a distribution deal with a local TV station in that country where the deal prohibits them from distributing it themselves. The local station wants you to watch it on their own streaming service. That would also explain why it's mostly English-speaking countries since nowhere else would carry an English-centric news show like this.
