How much of the White House is Trump demolishing?

Donald Trump begins bulldozing much of the White House as his plans to build a mega ballroom begin - without planning permission, nor true clarity as to how it’s all being funded. 

There are aesthetic questions, historical questions and ethical questions. We dig into what they are. 

And - who is the young Democratic socialist about to become New York City’s first Muslim mayor? We tell you everything you need to know about Zohran Mamdani. 

You can also watch all episodes on our YouTube channel - and watch David Blevins’ digital video on the White House ballroom here.
