August 1, 2025: Liberation Day, Part III

With the markets closed and the August 1 deadline having passed overnight, President Donald Trump followed through on his pledge to impose a wave of new tariffs. But Trump is far from finished. The president announced that in one week, he’ll raise tariffs on more than 60 nations, including a number of close U.S. trading partners. Playbook editor Zack Stanton joins contributing author Adam Wren to discuss what to expect today and in the days and weeks to come.

July 31, 2025: Joe Biden’s next act

For more than five decades, Joe Biden led an incredibly public existence. But now, in his post presidency, he’s entered a quieter, lonelier stage of life. He’s staffed by only one or two aides and Secret Service, holed up for hours at a time in Delaware working on his memoir with a new ghostwriter and racing against an aggressive form of prostate cancer while undergoing treatment. Most Democrats would prefer he keep a low profile. But what does Biden want? As he reenters the news cycle — both with a speech tonight to the National Bar Association in Chicago and as his former aides go before an adversarial House Oversight Committee — can he avoid being a millstone for the party he once led? Playbook’s Adam Wren and Dasha Burns walk through the implications of this moment and all the rest of the news you need to know today.

July 30, 2025: How to gerrymander your way to a House majority

We’re halfway between the usual once-in-a-decade redrawing of congressional maps. So why are we talking about redistricting in 2025? As the White House looks for ways to keep its Republican House majority in the 2026 election, it’s pressuring red states to shift their maps and squeeze out a few more GOP seats. And that risks setting off a redistricting arms race, with big red and blue states threatening to one-up each other and remake the 2026 electoral map — literally. Playbook’s Adam Wren and Zack Stanton game out the scenarios in key states, and tell you what else you need to know today.

July 29, 2025: Trump’s turning point on Gaza

For a decade, President Donald Trump’s MAGA movement has bulldozed through GOP orthodoxy on everything from the national debt to immigration to trade to Russia. Now, there are fresh signs that it could be careening toward its last standing shibboleth: The U.S. special relationship with Israel. With the humanitarian disaster in Gaza sparking global outrage and a public split between Trump and Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu, Playbook’s Adam Wren and Dasha Burns check in on what’s animating the president’s new posture — and what we can expect from here.

July 28, 2025: JD Vance’s stealth-mode approach to being VP

Vice President JD Vance’s first six months in office have been an exercise in stealth. Yes, he has a very public role. But to understand how Trump’s Washington truly works, you need to pull back the curtain on how Vance has approached his job — and what that tells us both about the MAGA’s present and its future. Adam Wren and Dasha Burns go inside the inner workings of the Trump White House and share their reporting. Plus, President Donald Trump’s Scotland trip continues as he prepares for a meeting with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, who is expected to press him on the spiraling humanitarian disaster in Gaza.

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
Bra app. Oversiktlig og ryddig. MYE bra innhold⭐️⭐️⭐️
