In the latest episode, Joanna Coles and I go inside the increasingly bizarre inner workings of Donald Trump’s presidency, beginning with my account of Natalie Harp’s deeply personal letters to Trump and the alarm they have sparked. We explore how Harp’s—now one of the president’s closest and most dedicated gatekeepers— rose to power and what her influence says about the people surrounding Trump, as well as those who are now on the outs. Then, as the war with Iran drags on without a clear endgame, we turn to Pete Hegseth, his ever-present wife, and the mounting signs of dysfunction at the Pentagon before asking whether a presidency once defined by raw power is now slipping into outright farce.
A deeper look… inside Trump’s head: Paid HOWL subscribers have exclusive access to a bonus segment, in which Joanna and I discussed how Natalie Harp became Trump’s closest aide in the White House, all without security clearance.
