About this episode

Donald Trump’s unconventional foreign policy has reshaped America’s position abroad, from Iran and the Strait of Hormuz to Russia, China, NATO, and the Western Hemisphere. Behind the seemingly chaotic rhetoric is a strategy built around unpredictability, pressure, and forcing both allies and adversaries to reconsider their assumptions about American power.

Blue-state efforts to block the Trump administration from obtaining commercial driver’s license information raise new concerns about illegal immigrants operating commercial trucks and public safety on America’s highways. New York lawmakers’ defense of shoplifting also highlights the consequences of tolerating low-level crime for businesses, consumers, and communities.

Artificial intelligence, drones, robotics, and new weapons are changing the modern battlefield without necessarily changing the fundamental nature of war. Battles over American education are unfolding at the same time, from a controversial California high school mosque trip to disputes over how Western civilization is taught and racial disparities at New York City’s elite Stuyvesant High School.
