1A - Donald Trump’s (Second) First 100 Days

100 days. That's how long Donald Trump's been in office in 2025.

While this moment is usually a time to measure how the administration is faring, in many ways, the administration is a reflection of who we are as a nation.

We discuss what we're learning about who we are as Americans during this time. What do we want, and what do we stand for?

There have been executive orders, Signal group chats, federal agency cuts, firings, rehirings, ignored judicial rulings, billionaires, memes, tariffs, and so much more.

As we all take stock of the national implications of his Administration's moves, for this episode, we want to get a little more personal. We hear from you on how your life has changed since Trump took office for the second time.

Consider This from NPR - Trumps first 100 days have pushed the limits of presidential power to new levels

President Trump is pushing the boundaries of executive power in nearly every area of policy. From his trade war, to immigration, to education, to the reductions in the federal workforce.

Many of his actions are direct challenges to the Courts and to Congress. Those two branches of government are designed to act as checks on the president.

Trump has governed largely by unilateral executive action... and left lawmakers on the sidelines.

NPR's Juana Summers talks with political correspondents Mara Liasson and Susan Davis about the changing power dynamic.

Marketplace All-in-One - “March is ancient history”

The latest GDP calculations and PCE index tell us the U.S. economy is doing … OK. Importantly, the data doesn’t point to stagflation. But the data was collected from January through March 2025, and at this point, March is old news. Also in this episode: American companies ramp up their spending on computers, Nike’s struggle to move sneaker manufacturing out of Asia is a cautionary tale and Texas becomes the biggest state to send public dollars to private schools through school choice vouchers.

The Gist - What is Gen-Z Doing with Mewing?

Sadie Dingfelder returns to investigate the cult of “mewing” — the viral tongue-posture technique that promises to chisel your jaw and change your life, or IS THAT BS? Then we turn to the rarest development of all: Trump, on Day 100 of his second term, strikes a deal with Zelensky but not the big one. Plus, we salute a scrappy little government agency that thrived on efficiency… until Trump and Musk disbanded it anyway.

The Daily Signal - Victor Davis Hanson: President Trump’s Threefold Opposition

Pollsters, the media, and the institutionalized Left. What do they all have in common? 


President Trump’s first 100 days weren’t as chaotic as they advertised. Now, they fear that the American people will see right through their deception, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:”


“They polled over 2,000 people, but only 840 were identified as Trump voters. Shouldn't that have been half? So, what am I getting at? We're getting right back to what happened in 2016 when the polls were completely wrong. The same thing happened in 2020 when they overestimated Biden's strength by four or five points. And then, even in 2024, the NPR poll had—on the last day of the election—they had Kamala Harris winning by four points.”
