TRUMP100

Mark calls the President - and he answers.

Just hours after Donald Trump announces a ceasefire with Iran, Mark gets through on the phone and is able to push him about what's been agreed.

When you call the president - you're not allowed to record your conversation.

But in this extra episode, we go through what Donald Trump told us, and what it all means. And Mark explains how he got to call him in the first place.

Trump, 90 minutes before his promise that a "whole civilisation will die" on Tuesday night, steps back from the brink.

A commitment to a ceasefire with Iran - negotiations to begin in Pakistan on Friday.

Iranians are celebrating this as a great success - as a capitulation from the Americans.

The Trump administration is steadfast that it’s an American win. And yet, missiles still rain down in Israel, Qatar and Kuwait.

And for Americans, what next for a president who swings from genocidal threats to embarrassing U-turn?

It's been some Easter weekend.

A pilot hiding from Iranian forces is saved - two days after their fighter jet was shot down by a rocket launcher.

More than 100 US servicemen and women involved, in a military success that the president spent Monday lauding in front of the world's press.

All the while, his Tuesday evening deadline remains. A red line - that if crossed with no deal - will see US military forces turn Iran into "living hell". The president's words.

What will happen? And will Trump risk committing war crimes?

Plus: we speak to Americans who are already feeling the economic pinch of Trump's Iran war.

Donald Trump fires another cabinet member - this time it’s Pam Bondi, the Attorney General.

She’s to leave for an “important job in the private sector… to be announced at a date in the near future”, so says the president. Helpful wording when you get your P45.

Why has she been sacked? Who’s replacing her? And how does this play into another topsy turvy 24 hours in Trump world?

We have the latest.

The King prepares for a high-stakes visit to Washington, and Donald Trump says it will be "terrific".

But behind the scenes, the special relationship is looking anything but, after another social media insult from the president, warning the UK to "go get your own oil" from Iran.

When the King arrives, can he help calm things down? Martha and David discuss.

Plus, Trump is putting his name on everything from airports to a towering presidential library complete with a gold statue. At what point does branding become something else entirely?

The president threatens to commit war crimes in Iran. Will he go through with it - or is it just another empty threat?

In other news - Trump seems more concerned with the layout for his new East Wing ballroom. That’s after the New York Times exposed his initial plans… as being not very good. The president has hit back.

Plus - a statue for Donald Trump appears in Washington DC. It might not be the one he quite hoped for though.

Mail-in voting, is on people’s minds too. The president calls it cheating… except when he does it. We react to the revelation about Trump’s voting habits.

But first, we’ve spent a couple of days in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Christianity, and the Church, is becoming a significant part of the direction of this administration. It’s playing into the war waged against Iran.

Minutes before Donald Trump’s announcement on Iran sent global markets into chaos, someone placed a huge bet on oil. They stood to make millions.

Was it luck or did they know what was coming?

Mark, David and our economics and data editor Ed Conway ask whether this could be one of the most suspicious trades in years.

Plus, Trump says the war in Iran has been won, he's achieved regime change and Iran has sent him a gift. So why is the Pentagon preparing to deploy thousands more troops?

Donald Trump had a deadline for the Iranians on Monday night - by 7pm Washington time, he said, he’d annihilate Iran’s energy infrastructure if the Strait of Hormuz was not fully reopened.

Despite no deal, he has stalled his massive bombing campaign.

Another extraordinary U-turn? Or is this entirely in character for the American president?

Plus - ICE officers now in airports?

And we react to that comment by Trump in response to the death of esteemed public servant, and Trump’s public enemy no. 1, Robert Mueller.

Our Ireland correspondent, Stephen Murphy, was in the Oval Office as it happened.

Plus - Donald Trump jokes about a merger between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. Another day with more confusing geopolitical messaging from this president. Is he being properly briefed, or does he not care?

And the Iran war is proving divisive, even among the president’s loyal lieutenants.

The counterterrorism director he appointed has stepped down saying he cannot in good conscience support Trump’s war in Iran.

Is this more evidence that the MAGA right is splintering over this conflict?

There are major inconsistencies with this White House administration right now. Rhetoric changes depending on when you catch the president, who claims the war in Iran could be over "soon".

What does it mean for the conflict, and for the Iranian people? We unpack it all.

That is as a new supreme leader is chosen - and questions start to mount over the bombing of a girls school that left more than 168 people dead.

As for the new supreme leader - well, he seems even more hardline than his predecessor. Even if the US stops the missiles, will Iran?

A civil rights icon, Reverend Jesse Jackson, died on Tuesday at the age of 84. Americans grieve a man who helped shape modern America.

Donald Trump weighs in - and gets political. Why?

In Geneva, American and Iranian officials attempt to thrash out a nuclear deal. There are optimistic noises… but POTUS and the supreme leader are still fire warning shots at one another.

And a row breaks out over a late night chat show interview pulled by CBS. Critics say the network is kowtowing to the administration.

It’s been a year since Donald Trump’s return to the White House. In a lengthy briefing to mark the occasion, he laid out his achievements and ambitions - at the centre of it all is Greenland.

Trump refuses to rule out how far he is willing to go to secure it, and after posting an AI image of a US flag planted on Arctic ice, markets stumbled amid fears of a trade war with Europe. NATO, once again, is left hanging as Trump declines to give an unequivocal commitment to the alliance and hints everything is up for negotiation.

Martha, James and Mark reflect on what this moment tells us about Trump’s presidency and what a year back in power really looks like as he heads into year two.

President Trump is back on the stump for the first time in months on Tuesday. The polls all say Americans are unhappy with his presidency, and with his economy. Can he reverse the tide?

But before that he was sitting down for a blockbuster interview with Politico. In it, the president eviscerates Europe, and Europe’s leaders. 

Even the Pope is getting involved. 

What does this mean for the US-European relationship… and is this the beginning of a big, messy break up?

Donald Trump is threatening to sue the BBC for $1bn, accusing it of fabricating part of his January 6 speech in a Panorama documentary. The letter from his lawyers demands a full retraction, an apology - and a huge payout.

Meanwhile in Washington, a former jihadi commander who once had a US government bounty on his head, now Syria's new president, has been welcomed to the Oval Office. Mark and James report on the extraordinary meeting, what it means for US foreign policy, and how it plays into Trump's push to reshape the Middle East.

And as the US government shutdown drags past 41 days, a last-minute deal could finally see federal workers paid and food programmes saved, but the political fights over health care and spending are far from over.

Donald Trump sits down for an interview with CBS' 60 Minutes - the programme he sued successfully for $16m just four months ago.

All the while, his poll numbers are at an all-time low due to the government shutdown, as hundreds of thousands of federal workers remain unpaid and food benefits for millions of people run out. 

And is this the week the real Democrats stand up? Their favourability numbers are also dire, but will the emergence of a firebrand left-wing mayor in New York City, in the shape of Zohran Mamdani, and a handful of positive off-year election results on Tuesday be the spark they desperately need to counter Trump's MAGA agenda?
