Regular contributor, Leslie Vinjamuri from Chatham House and Executive Director of the Overseas Development Institute, Alex Thier, join Newsweek's Mirren Gidda and Josh Lowe for this week's episode. Donald Trump has announced proposals for his first budget, and they're predictably proving controversial. From hikes in America's already large defense spending to cuts in services like meals on wheels, Trump has pulled few punches. If the budget went through, it would see cuts in America's contributions to tackling climate change, boosting development, funding the U.N. and other global projects. So who would be worst hit around the world? What would be the impact on the United States? And can Trump actually get what he wants?

Sarah Churchwell and Leslie Vinjamuri join Newsweek's Mirren Gidda and Josh Lowe to tackle this week's topic. Donald Trump rode a tide of rage into office: rage at a "Washington elite" that he said had been ignoring the problems of "ordinary people" and failing to "get anything done." In so doing, he made big promises: to bring back jobs, put up walls, and, above all, to "make America great again." But can he actually keep to any of it?

The Guardian columnists join Newsweek's Mirren Gidda to discuss the hot topic of fake news. In the run-up to the U.S. presidential election, fake news abounded, with false stories about both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump spreading across social media. The problem has not abated. On December 4, a gunman walked into the Comet Ping Pong pizzeria in Washington, D.C. and opened fire. He was there, he said, to investigate the fallacious conspiracy theory that Hillary Clinton and her aide John Podesta had run a sex ring out of the restaurant's basement (a room it doesn't have). Then, on Tuesday, the U.S. president-elect tweeted in condemnation of fake news. His tweet, it seems, was aimed at BuzzFeed's decision to publish a dossier alleging that Russia has been assisting and supporting Trump for at least five years.

Will Smith, comedian and writer on Veep and The Thick of It, and Richard Smith, editor of satirical news site Newsthump join Newsweek's Mirren Gidda and Josh Lowe to discuss: How do satirists ridicule the ridiculous? Donald Trump won the U.S. presidential election in a stunningly rude manner with an "anything goes" approach to publicity and jokes about the size of his hands. Like UKIP's Nigel Farage in Brexit Britain, Trump seems to come out on top no matter what the media throw at him. Making satire stick with such figures around can be tricky. What's more, the much-discussed phenomenon of "fake news" may be alarming for spoof news sites; how can they stop their work fueling the supposed misinformation epidemic? Trump's famously thin skin has already led to outbursts of rage against journalists and comedians. Should they be worried about retaliation?

Both men served distinguished careers. But both have strong views on Iran, Russia and other controversial topics. And giving military figures so much power could make some voters uneasy.

Newsweek’s Owen Matthews joins hosts Josh Lowe and Mirren Gidda to talk the rise of populism across Europe. Donald Trump's policy platform is unlike that of any U.S. President in recent times. His nationalist, anti-Islam and Russia-sympathetic ideas are likely to usher in massive changes in American policy at home and abroad. But to observers of Europe, a lot of his ideas don't look so unusual; they're not unlike those espoused by a new generation of populist hard-right leaders surging toward power across the continent. In the East, pro-Moscow populists are riding a tide of discontent, expanding Vladimir Putin's sphere of influence. In the West, the likes of France's National Front and Austria's Freedom Party have brought their anti-immigrant, anti-EU views to within touching distance of high office. So who are Europe's mini-Trumps? How serious are their chances of success? And what does their rise mean for Europe and the wider west?

It's been another chaotic year for global politics. The rise of Trump and the U.K.'s departure from the EU have both unsettled the established order, while the refugee crisis that has helped define European politics for the past three years is far from over. Newsweek sat down to try and make sense of it all with a man who once helped shaped the world as the U.K.'s foreign secretary, and now tries to help improve it as the director of the International Rescue Committee (IRC) NGO; David Miliband. Josh Lowe and Mirren Gidda spoke to Miliband about Trump's shock win and his friendship with Hillary Clinton, his reflections on British politics after leaving the country following a Labour leadership defeat, and what Brexit and the rise of nationalism mean for progressive politics.

Leslie Vinjamuri and Jacob Parakilas speak with Josh Lowe and Mirren Gidda explore the biggest news story of 2016. Donald Trump didn't win the election on policy. His rhetoric spoke to sections of the electorate who felt they had been ignored. He promised these people he would "make America great again." They thought that was a great idea and put him in the White House. But now Trump has to actually come good. Faced at home with a divided country and abroad with a newly confident Russia and a mandate for trade renegotiations with China, the property mogul must head into the fray with next to no political experience. So what will he do? What policies will he prioritise? Will he row back on his controversial views about Putin and free trade? Can he heal a nation torn asunder?

Mark Bergman and Diana Shaw Clark join hosts Josh Lowe and Mirren as they figure out how important an issue the Supreme Court is in the 2016 election. What with Muslim bans and "locker room talk" on one side and a plethora of leaked emails on the other, the 2016 U.S. presidential election has had plenty of scandals. So many, in fact, that they've sometimes drowned out one of the most important issues facing Americans at the ballot box; appointments to the supreme court. With an unresolved deadlock in the court one of the first jobs in a new President's in-tray, and up to three further appointments likely to arise during their tenure, whoever enters the Oval Office in November could have enormous power to shape U.S. law for generations to come. So what would Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump do with that power? And how much is it going to change what happens on the day of the Poll?

David Hawkins and Stacy Hilliard join Mirren Gidda and Josh Lowe as the foreshadow the possibility of Donald Trump winning the election. Few people ever thought he'd get here. And yet, with weeks to go until the U.S. presidential election, Donald Trump, the property mogul who was thought of as variously too lightweight, too rich, too erratic, too right-wing or too uninterested to win, could feasibly take the Oval Office. Trump is only a couple of points behind Hillary Clinton in some polls. Will Trump start a trade war with China? How would life change for minorities? And will Mexico really pay for the wall?

Sarah Churchwell and Joseph Downing are this week’s guests as Josh Lowe and Mirren Gidda tackle the thorny issue of privacy within politics. All week, the U.S. has talked of little but Hillary Clinton's health, after a bout of pneumonia led Donald Trump to demand that the Democratic presidential nominee release her medical records. Meanwhile, the clamor for Trump to put out his tax return is growing. It led us to ask: where is the boundary between public and private? Clearly, politicians have to disclose more than the average member of the public, but what, and when, is it reasonable to ask for? Do the benefits of such an approach outweigh the downsides?

Alicia Barrett and Sunder Katwala join Josh Lowe and Mirren Gidda as they address Immigration. The Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has long railed against immigration, threatening to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border and ban Muslims from entering the country. His extreme stance has won him supporters. Anxieties over immigration policy trouble governments worldwide. In Britain, many of the people who voted to leave did so in the hope of reducing the numbers of EU migrants coming to the U.K. So, how should governments address the issue of immigration? Does espousing its economic benefits convince people that immigration is beneficial, or should it be discussed differently? Alicia Barrett is the American outreach officer at the Institute of Economic Affairs, a free market research organization, and Sunder Katwala is the director of British Future, a think tank focussed on the issue of immigration.
