About this listen

In this episode, the focus is on a single magazine spread: a timeline of one year under President Donald Trump, marked by executive orders, foreign interventions, protests, and political drama.

Across just a few columns, this page captures tariffs on Venezuelan oil, military strikes on Iran, the shutdown of a U.S. aid agency, the deployment of the National Guard on American streets, and diplomatic deals that swap prisoners and reshape alliances.

Today’s episode walks through that year, month by month, unpacking what each entry suggests about power, policy, and people’s lives—both in the United States and abroad.

By the end, listeners will not just have a list of events, but a sense of how they connect and what they say about leadership in a turbulent time.
