Listen "How Stephen Miller is defining Trump’s second term "
Episode Synopsis
Stephen Miller has played a central part in shaping White House policy since Donald Trump’s first term as president. But with less opposition this time around from Congress or other figures inside the administration, Miller’s hardline agenda has started to come to life. The FT’s US national correspondent Guy Chazan and US national editor Ed Luce join this week’s Swamp Notes to explore what Trump’s top policy adviser might be planning next.Mentioned in this podcast:Stephen Miller: Donald Trump’s ‘prime minister’ executes his plan to reshape AmericaStephen Miller, Trump’s implementer-in-chiefRussell Vought: the man on a ‘divine mission’ to traumatise US bureaucratsSign up for the FT’s Swamp Notes newsletter hereSwamp Notes is produced by Henry Larson and Ethan Plotkin.
