Musk’s influence over mass firings in the federal government

Regional consequences of Trump's Gaza redevelopment ideas

S2025 E6 - 9m 18s

What's next from Trump's federal purge after USAID's closure

S2025 E6 - 14m 49s

Trump quick to attack after the Washington airline tragedy

S2025 E5 - 14m 10s

It was a tragedy when an Army helicopter collided with a passenger jet Wednesday night over the Potomac. It has traditionally been the role of a president to publicly mourn the dead, promise a full and transparent investigation and withhold judgment about the cause of the accident all while calming the public. President Trump, of course, reads from a different playbook.
Trump's Greenland grab

S2025 E5 - 9m 53s

The panel discusses the tumultuous first week of Trump’s second term.
Breaking down Trump's first week of 'shock and awe'

Trump promises a busy first day in office

S2025 E3 - 13m 39s

Donald Trump has promised his fellow citizens a very busy Monday, filled with executive orders and radical course shifts. The panel discusses what we should be looking for.
The politics of the TikTok ban

S2025 E3 - 10m 21s

The Supreme Court cleared the way for the U.S. government to shut down the popular social media app TikTok as soon as Sunday. But President-elect Trump has signaled he's willing to undo the ban. The panel discusses the politics surrounding the issue.
If Trump can't deliver, what will the reaction be?

S2025 E2 - 15m 39s

President-elect Trump has made many promises about how the government will work once he takes office for his second term. The panel discusses if he will be able to deliver, and how supporters and political opponents could react if he can't produce pledged results.
Trump’s threats give new meaning to 'America First'

S2025 E2 - 8m 24s

Confirmation hearings will begin next week for some of Trump’s nominees. It comes just as Trump has threatened allies and friends from Denmark to Panama, giving new meaning to “America First.” The panel discusses why he's making these comments and if the nominees will face easy confirmations.
