A major topic following Donald Trump's victory in the 2024 presidential election has been his gains with racial and ethnic minorities, a trend that's scrambled many people's assumptions about American politics, not least those of anti-racist liberals. Why have minority voters drifted toward Trump, despite his many comments and campaign pledges that demonize or disparage them? To try to understand this phenomenon, we talked to Daniel Martinez HoSang, who has studied the minorities entering the GOP coalition, not only but especially in the MAGA era, including extraordinarily rich interview with people of color on the right attending Turning Point USA conference, CPAC, Trump rallies, following right wing influencers, and more.

In June 2025, the European Commission announced a decision under which it fined two competing online food delivery companies a combined total of €329 million for cartel behaviour that took place while one company held a minority stake in the other company.

Syrian authorities have announced a new ceasefire agreement for the southern province of Sweida following days of fighting, but it remains uncertain whether peace will prevail after a local leader of the Druze minority rejected the deal. It comes after the collapse of a short-lived truce just a day earlier to bring an end to violent sectarian clashes that are said to have claimed more than 300 lives and prompted Israel to attack targets across Syria, including in Damascus.
Some Syrian military units are withdrawing from the southern city of Suwayda after days of deadly fighting. Secretary of State Rubio announced late Wednesday that all parties, including Israel, agreed to a ceasefire. But the day began with Israeli strikes in Syria's capital, part of an operation it claimed was to protect a minority group in Syria it considers an ally. William Brangham reports.

American democracy is going through a rough patch, and the Constitution, for all its brilliance, has some flaws that limit the power of majorities. So why haven't we made any real reforms in over 50 years? And what are other democracies doing to fight authoritarianism? Sharon sits down with Harvard government professors, Steven Levitsky and Daniel Ziblatt, to discuss their book, Tyranny of the Minority. They explore how past democracies have failed, and find the striking pattern that political minorities often wield power over political majorities.

Former Washington minority owner Fred Smith, one of the owners who helped oust Dan Snyder, passed away this past weekend.
Victor Davis Hanson breaks this down on today's episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “ Rasmussen Polls—who have been very accurate, they were in the 2024 election and they are now—they surveyed the first 100 days of the Trump administration. … Sixty-two percent of those who were surveyed that were Hispanic expressed approval. African Americans were about 39%. And Hispanics were higher than whites. “ The elite in politics and celebrities are using this idea of white, white, white, white in a prejudicial manner. It's very ironic because it's exactly what we were evolving away from in pursuit of Martin Luther King's ‘content of our character, not color of our skin.'” (0:00) Introduction (1:44) Reverse Racism Among Left-Wing Elites (2:05) Susan Rice and Political Appointments (3:17) Refugee Status and Racial Controversies (4:12) Racial Prejudices in Political Discourse (6:09) Economic Considerations Over Racial Identity (7:06) Conclusion
