Has Donald Trump just begun state-run television in America?
Trump versus the media. Again. But this time, the media has fought back. After banning CNN, MS NOW and Politico from the White House, major news organisations, including Fox News, have united in protest. The result? For the first time in decades, the president has travelled without the television press pool that usually follows him everywhere he goes. As Donald Trump arrives in New York for a crucial week of diplomacy, Mark Stone and James Matthews unravel a row that's become about much more than journalism. Plus, Trump's giant triumphal arch planned for Washington gets an unusual upgrade -…

Are Republicans in panic mode?
Donald Trump has begun his midterm campaign push, but not where you might expect. The president headed to North Carolina, a state Republicans usually count on winning, while Vice President JD Vance was dispatched to deep-red Kansas. So why are the party's biggest names spending time in states Trump carried comfortably in 2024? Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve has raised interest rates for the first time in more than three years as the financial cost of America's war with Iran continues to climb. Also a new report says there are reasonable grounds to believe the United States committed war…

AI could end the world. So why is Trump not bothered?
Millions of people - if not billions - are terrified of AI's potential power. Donald Trump says their fears are being whipped up by "conspiracy theorists, treasonists and traitors". But some of the loudest warnings about AI are coming from the tech billionaires building it. So why is the president dismissing their concerns? What don't we know? Plus, a trip to Ireland sparks a potential British constitutional crisis after the president calls once more for a united Ireland. The Unionists - who are Donald Trump fans but staunchly against unification - are having to do quite the dance. And -…

Who will replace Trump?
The White House press briefing returned after a six-week absence, but it was JD Vance acting as press secretary. Or was it an audition for the Vice President to prove himself as the natural heir to Trump's political movement? While speaking on a faith podcast, JD Vance told listeners he’s been doing ‘God’s work’ where he also said the ‘antichrist walks among us’. Martha Kelner and Mark Stone also look at the growing speculation around the other Republicans who could be eyeing a White House run after Trump, and what the approaching midterms could mean for the future of MAGA.
