From The Political Scene: Donald Trump’s Dangerous Politicization of America’s Spy Agencies

The Washington Roundtable is joined by Jeff Stein, the veteran political reporter and founding editor of the newsletter “Spytalk,” to examine Donald Trump’s appointment of Bill Pulte as the new acting Director of National Intelligence, a position that, in theory, oversees the C.I.A., N.S.A., F.B.I., and fifteen other agencies. Pulte has no intelligence background and no national-security experience, but does have a track record of going after the President’s perceived enemies. Plus, the panel discusses a recent Washington Post investigation that raised new questions about the outgoing director, Tulsi Gabbard, and her alleged ties to a religious cult.

America at 250: A View from Britain, with “The Rest Is History”

Americans tend to see the Declaration of Independence and the Revolutionary War as milestones in world history that inaugurated the era of modern democracy. But the British, unsurprisingly, see these events quite differently. David Remnick talks with the historians who host the popular podcast “The Rest Is History,” Dominic Sandbrook and Tom Holland. Growing up in Britain, Sandbrook explains, the Revolution seemed like “a parade of quite boring men talking very earnestly about liberty, [with] battles that involved twenty people in a field somewhere. . . . It’s not Waterloo!” The King was “annoyed” to lose the thirteen colonies to the new nation, but, for his government, “it could have been a lot worse.” Sandbrook and Holland discuss historical events that overshadow the American Revolution in the British mind; the 1619 Project and the subject of slavery; the “colossally consequential” Presidency of Donald Trump; and the fate of the British monarchy. Further reading and listening: “The American Revolution Wasn’t the Main Event,” by Daniel Immerwahr America at 250, a special issue of The New Yorker “Was the Declaration of Independence Better Before the Edits?,” by Jill Lepore “Scandal, Protest, Goofiness, and Grandeur at the U.S. Bicentennial,” by Jill Lepore “We Could Have Been Canada,” by Adam Gopnik New episodes of The New Yorker Radio Hour drop every Tuesday and Friday.

Alicia Keys’s New York Musical Goes on National Tour

The unofficial anthem of New York City is “Empire State of Mind,” the Jay-Z song with that unforgettable hook, sung by Alicia Keys. So it was only fitting that when New York celebrated the Knicks’ N.B.A. Finals victory, Keys took the stage at City Hall to sing it. It was a classic New York moment, for an artist who is herself a true New Yorker. In her musical, “Hell’s Kitchen,” Keys uses her songs to tell the story of a teen-ager growing up, like Keys, in the titular Manhattan neighborhood, near Times Square—a “place of the have-nots,” as she told David Remnick, with “this unique balance between that grime, and the potential of Broadway.” They spoke when “Hell’s Kitchen” was in previews; it went on to win two Tony Awards, and recently began a national tour. This segment originally aired on March 29, 2024. Further reading: “‘Hell’s Kitchen’ Brings Alicia Keys’s Musical Power to the Public,” by Helen Shaw New episodes of The New Yorker Radio Hour drop every Tuesday and Friday. Join host David Remnick as he discusses the latest in politics, news, and current events in conversation with political leaders, newsmakers, innovators, New Yorker staff writers, authors, actors, and musicians.

An American Playlist

This week, to commemorate two hundred and fifty years of the American experiment, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz present an American playlist. On this special episode, the hosts hear from listeners regarding the songs that best encapsulate their feelings about the U.S. today—and offer some tracks of their own. The resulting compilation reflects the country’s turbulent history, its uncertain present, and, crucially, listeners’ hopes for its future. “What we think of as nation-building—at least if you care about art, that’s not where the real action is,” Cunningham says. “The action is in our creative response to the circumstances that we’re given. And that’s what music is all about.” Listen to a playlist of songs from this episode here. Featured tracks: “Kids in America,” by Kim Wilde“Miss America,” by David Byrne“All-American Bitch,” by Olivia Rodrigo“Django Jane,” by Janelle Monáe“Help Save the Youth of America,” by Billy Bragg“Almost Cut My Hair,” by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young“Free Fallin’,” by Tom Petty“America,” by Simon & Garfunkel“Battle Hymn of the Republic,” covered by Joan Baez“Sleep Now in the Fire,” by Rage Against the Machine“Your Flag Decal Won’t Get You Into Heaven Anymore,” by John Prine“Compared to What,” by Roberta Flack“Ohio/Machine Gun,” by The Isley Brothers“Bob Dylan's 115th Dream,” by Bob Dylan“Wild Goose Chase,” covered by Nora Brown“That’s Life,” covered by James Brown“Billy The Kid Suite,” by Aaron Copland“A Change Is Gonna Come,” by Sam Cooke New episodes drop every Thursday.

The Met Gala, “The Devil Wears Prada 2,” and the State of Style

In the original “The Devil Wears Prada,” a hapless Andrea Sachs stumbles into the office of Miranda Priestly, the exacting editor of Runway magazine and a titan of the fashion world. The film, released in 2006, was adapted from a novel by the former Vogue staffer Lauren Weisberger, and it spun the glamour of the industry into a crowd-pleasing confection for the big screen. Two decades later, the atmosphere of its sequel is darker. On this episode of Critics at Large, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz discuss the reality-inflected elements of the new film, which finds Priestly and her team chasing clicks and catering to the whims of billionaires who might solve Runway’s financial woes. The question of billionaire influence was also present at this year’s Met Gala. The event’s lead sponsors were the Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and his wife, Lauren Sánchez Bezos, who reportedly donated ten million dollars to become honorary co-chairs. Attendees paid a hundred thousand dollars just to get in the door. Why, the hosts ask, does the gala still matter to the average fashion enthusiast? “It’s the one time where, divorced from utility and other reasons, it’s O.K. to just look at fashion,” Cunningham says. “I tend to defend our opportunities to just look at things that provoke pleasure.” Read, watch, and listen with the critics: The 2026 Met Gala“The Devil Wears Prada” (2006)“The Devil Wears Prada 2” (2026)“Guys Are Wearing Slutty Little Reading Glasses Now” (GQ) New episodes drop every Thursday.

Steven Spielberg’s Blockbusters

When “Jaws” hit theatres in 1975, no one—neither the studio executives involved nor the film’s twenty-six-year-old director, Steven Spielberg—was betting on its success. But it dominated at the box office and promptly revolutionized the way movies were promoted, distributed, and merchandised. On this episode of Critics at Large, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz trace how Spielberg inaugurated a new phenomenon in Hollywood: the blockbuster. He would tap his own playbook again and again with such hits as “Close Encounters of the Third Kind,” “E.T.,” and “Jurassic Park,” all of which drew impressive audiences and profits. The hosts talk through his filmography, culminating in his new release, “Disclosure Day,” which both replicates and iterates on themes and techniques found in his earlier work. Though other directors may share his capacity for spectacle and action-packed set pieces, much of his appeal lies in his profound earnestness. “What Spielberg is so good at is bringing the human to the fore in these extreme, sci-fi circumstances,” Schwartz says. “And that’s what makes a great blockbuster.” Read, watch, and listen with the critics: “Jaws” (1975)“Disclosure Day” (2026)“Minority Report” (2002)“Oscar Wars,” by Michael Schulman“What Went Wrong” ’s episode about “Jaws”“Close Encounters of the Third Kind” (1977)“Jurassic Park” (1993)“E.T.” (1982)“Alf” (1986-90)“Schindler’s List” (1993)“One Battle After Another” (2025)“American Journal,” by Robert Hayden“Heart of the Beast” (2026)“Sinners” (2025)“Nope” (2022)“Barbie” (2023)“Obsession” (2026)“Backrooms” (2026) New episodes drop every Thursday.

From The Political Scene: The Politics of the Big Game

Critics at Large will be back next week. In the meantime, you can hear Vinson Cunningham and Naomi Fry on a recent episode of The New Yorker’s Political Scene, hosted by Tyler Foggatt, where they consider several high-profile collisions of sports and politics. First, Cunningham talks to Foggatt about Donald Trump’s controversial appearance at a Knicks game during the team’s championship run. Then Fry and Foggatt discuss the U.F.C. fight that Trump hosted on the White House lawn—in celebration of America’s two-hundred-and-fiftieth anniversary, as well as his own eightieth birthday—and what it revealed about the President’s second term. Finally, the staff writer Louisa Thomas joins Foggatt to discuss how the Administration’s immigration policies, the war in Iran, and America’s precarious position on the international stage are impacting another major athletic event: the World Cup.
