Consider This from NPR - Trump is back and ready to change America

Donald Trump returns to Washington newly empowered.

The Republican party has remade itself in his image. The Supreme Court has granted him sweeping immunity for his official actions. And, unlike last time, he narrowly won the popular vote.

And Trump is prepared to exercise his new power almost immediately. He's pledged to sign an unprecedented wave of executive actions – many of which will be challenged in court.

These actions include one making it U.S. policy to recognize only two biologically distinct sexes – male and female. And his administration would end birthright citizenship — a right explicitly protected by the Constitution.

President Donald Trump's executive actions could make fundamental changes to some of the foundations of American government.

Reset with Sasha-Ann Simons - Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson On Trump Presidency, MLK Jr. Day

During Donald Trump’s first term, Chicago was a frequent punching bag for the Republican president, who zeroed in on and often inflated the city’s issues with violence. As Trump is sworn into office for a second time, are Chicago and Illinois in his crosshairs, and if so, how will Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson work with or against the new president to protect his progressive agenda? Reset sits down with the mayor to hear what is top of mind for him with the new administration. Chicago Sun-Times reporter covering government and politics Mitchell Armentrout also joined the conversation. For a full archive of Reset interviews, head over to wbez.org/reset.

The Bulwark Podcast - Bill Kristol: Resist the Nihilism

Trump wants us to believe that nothing matters, so we'll brush off all his corruption and grifting as though everybody does it. That's what aspiring authoritarians always do, including the guy who didn't place his hand on a Bible when he was sworn in today. Meanwhile, Trump just launched probably the biggest scam in the history of the presidency with his memecoin—ordinary people will lose real money, nothing like the small-ball amounts he scoops up with his shoes, mugs, and digital baseball cards. Plus, Biden's pardons, Trump's Day One executive orders, and seizing the means of content production with TikTok.

Bill Kristol joins Tim Miller.
