“Move fast and break things.” It’s an old motto from Silicon Valley. But these days, speed and disruption are also the coin of the realm in Washington. President Donald Trump is moving fast to redefine the government and America’s place in the world; and many of his critics have voiced their concerns that something might get broken in the process.

This past week, Trump entertained France and Britain’s heads of state, Emmanuel Macron and Keir Starmer — both of them courting his favor; he took a bite out of restructuring our relationship with Ukraine; and he promised some added tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China.

In domestic policy, Speaker Mike Johnson finally advanced a budget resolution that is a crucial step to passing Trump’s agenda through reconciliation.

And coming next week, the growing crisis over a possible government shutdown. That is, once everyone digests the deluge of news that the President makes during his Joint Address to Congress on Tuesday.

On this episode of the Playbook Deep Dive podcast, host Eugene Daniels joins senior Congress editor, Mike DeBonis and West Wing Playbook co-author Sophia Cai, to help digest everything that has happened this week — and everything that is coming next week too.
