In the less than two months since Donald Trump took office, he has upended decades of foreign policy by targeting the country’s allies. Panelists on Washington Week With The Atlantic joined last night to discuss the effects of his policies in the U.S. and across the globe.

Meanwhile, Congress averted a government shutdown on Friday evening, passing a bill that will fund the government through September. Although Chuck Schumer of New York rallied enough votes for the bill, some Democrats now say that the minority leader capitulated to Trump. Especially among House Democrats from districts that the president carried in the election, “they feel as though he kind of left them out to dry,” Laura Barrón-López said last night.

Joining the editor in chief of The Atlantic, Jeffrey Goldberg, to discuss this and more: Laura Barrón-López, a White House correspondent for PBS NewsHour; Stephen Hayes, the editor of The Dispatch; and David Sanger, a White House and national-security correspondent at The New York Times.

Donald Trump’s unpredictable economic policies have rattled the markets and prompted warnings of a possible recession. Panelists joined on Washington Week With The Atlantic to discuss new warning signs that indicate a negative impact on U.S. and global economics.

This week, the president announced yet another reversal for tariffs on Mexico and Canada, now saying that he would be pulling back the policies. “The reasons for why he’s imposing these tariffs keep shifting,” Michelle Price said last night. “At some point, the confusion for businesses is going to be worse than the tariffs themselves.”

Joining the guest moderator and staff writer at The Atlantic, Franklin Foer, to discuss this and more: Dan Balz, a chief correspondent at The Washington Post; Eugene Daniels, the chief Playbook and White House correspondent at Politico; Michelle Price, a White House reporter for the Associated Press; Kayla Tausche, a senior White House correspondent at CNN.

The fallout from the meeting between presidents Donald Trump and Volodymyr Zelensky has been swift and intense. Panelists on Washington Week With The Atlantic joined to discuss what’s next for the war in Ukraine.

After weeks of rising tension between Trump and Zelensky, their Oval Office meeting marks a major shift in U.S. foreign policy. During Trump’s first term, there was a sense that U.S. allies “could just wait [Trump] out,” Ashley Parker said last night. In their view, the “fever-dream nightmare would end after four years.” But now, with Trump’s realignment of the country’s global position, there is a sense that “Europeans are going to have to respond accordingly in a world where they can no longer believe they can count on America as an ally.”

Joining staff writer at The Atlantic and guest moderator Franklin Foer to discuss this and more: Peter Baker, the chief White House correspondent for The New York Times; Jonathan Karl, the chief Washington correspondent at ABC News; Ashley Parker, a staff writer at The Atlantic; Nancy Youssef, a national-security correspondent at The Wall Street Journal.
