Two stories in the news this week raise the question of who is currently in charge of the world's most powerful country, the United States. First, there's the Wall Street Journal piece about how the U.S. government does not believe Israel's claim that Iran is moving forward with an attempt to build a nuclear weapon:


The article from Slate, dated June 2025, discusses former President Donald Trump's reversal on several key policies, including his stance on Iran and the implementation of ICE raids. Initially, Trump had taken a hardline approach against Iran, but recent statements indicate a softening of his position, suggesting a potential shift in U.S. foreign policy. Additionally, Trump's administration had ramped up ICE raids targeting undocumented immigrants, but the article reports a sudden halt to these operations, causing confusion and speculation about the motives behind these policy changes. Political analysts suggest that these reversals could be strategic moves to appeal to a broader voter base as Trump considers another run for office.
