Musk Vs. Trump

from Majority 54 · host Majority 54

Ravi Gupta unpacks Elon Musk’s surprising criticism of Trump’s spending bill and his pledge to pull back on political donations in future elections. He examines what this shift could mean for the GOP’s fundraising machine, and why some MAGA loyalists are already turning on Musk. Gupta then dives into the Trump administration’s alarming new crackdown on foreign students, including a proposed pause on visa interviews and sweeping social media vetting. He also analyzes Trump’s explosive Truth Social post claiming he’s the only reason Russia hasn’t faced ‘really bad’ consequences. Plus, he looks at the fallout from Trump’s attempt to cut ties with Harvard and redirect billions in federal grants.

IfG Events Institute for Government The Labour government has a huge majority in parliament – but Keir Starmer’s administration is also facing an incredibly complex set of policy challenges. So how can the prime minister and his team turn around public service performance? What can chancellor Rachel Reeves do to get the economy growing again? What will mission-driven government actually mean in practice? Who should be making the key decisions in Westminster – and beyond? And what will the appointment of a new cabinet secretary mean for the future direction of the civil service?From reforming how the centre of government works to the battle for the future of the civil service, from making a success of levelling up to achieve net zero goals, IfG EVENTS stimulate fresh thinking and share ideas about how government works – and how it could work better.
