Brief: Trump's Board of Peace plans for Gaza

US federal immigration raids continue in Minnesota, and the operation has set the stage for a standoff between state officials and the federal government. Governor Tim Walz has readied Minnesota's national guard, while the Pentagon has ordered troops to be on standby. A 2024 University of Pennsylvania simulation warned that similar state-federal standoffs could escalate into broader armed conflict.

Minnesota, ICE and the makings of a US civil war

Every Saturday, we revisit a story from the archives. This originally aired on January 20, 2023. None of the dates, titles, or other references from that time have been changed.

The World Economic Forum is known for glitzy parties, exclusivity, and dealmaking – in addition to panels on topics ranging from climate change to ‘stakeholder capitalism’. The theme of this year’s annual meeting in Davos is “cooperation in a fragmented world,” and Davos mainstays are the world’s most powerful networkers. They wield an enormous amount of economic and political power. So who are they? What actually happens at Davos, and what do the people left off the invite list need to know about it?

In this episode: 
Peter S. Goodman (@petersgoodman), global economics reporter at The New York Times and author of Davos Man: How the Billionaires Devoured the World
Max Lawson (@maxlawsontin), Head of Inequality Policy, Oxfam

Another Take: We need to talk about Davos

At the World Economic Forum in Davos, US President Donald Trump announced that a “framework” for a future deal on Greenland is taking shape. Tied to missile defense and mineral rights, the framework eases concerns about Trump's earlier threats of tariffs and military intervention. So, how would an eventual deal affect the future of Greenlanders and US-Europe relations?
