Lucy Watson, Dan Rivers, and Laura Schwartz gather for an impromptu bonus episode after relations between the world's richest man and perhaps the world's most powerful man collapsed at lightning speed.Elon Musk ramped up the row between the pair yesterday after claiming, without evidence, that Trump's administration hasn't released all the records related to sex abuser Jeffrey Epstein because the president is mentioned in them. He wrote on X: "Time to drop the really big bomb: @realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public."So what on earth just happened? Where did this spat begin? And how damaging could this be to the U.S. President? The team will be back on Monday with another Q&A session.

Keith Kellogg has perhaps the hardest job of all in the Trump administration. The retired general is the US President's Special Envoy for Ukraine, putting him right at the forefront of the American effort to end Russia's invasion - travelling between Washington, Kyiv, Turkey, the Middle East, attempting to reconcile the very, very different demands of Vladimir Putin, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, and an increasingly impatient Donald Trump. And it has not been an easy ride. He was the first American official to meet with Zelensky after Trump called him a 'dictator' back in February; he was just a metre away when the pair later had that extraordinary shouting match in the Oval Office. And this week, he's been tasked with diffusing escalating tensions after Ukraine's audacious drone attack on Russian war planes. So it was quite a moment for our US Correspondent Dan Rivers to sit down with him for an extended interview, to discuss whether there is really ANY path to peace any more, and what it's been like dealing with Donald Trump behind the scenes.

This week on Talking Politics USA, Dan goes behind the scenes at the White House to meet Natalie Winters, co-host of Steve Bannon's 'War Room' and one of the new MAGA media cohort who have been granted greater access by President Donald Trump.As Elon Musk bids farewell to the White House, Lucy Watson and Laura Schwartz join Dan to discuss whether this really is goodbye to the world's richest man and what his legacy will be.Plus after Trump goes to war with Harvard, Dan reflects on meeting students at the university and the team discuss the new TACO meme which is ruffling the president's feathers.Got a question for the team?
