Trump is booed and Hegseth announces a public execution
Pete Hegseth decides that the US government will execute a man on death row - in public. It will be the first of its kind since the era of public hangings in the 1930s. An era many Americans will have hoped they’d left in the past. The news breaks mid record. We react. Elsewhere… The tech giants are back in Washington DC. Elon Musk and Jensen Huang are back with the president a week after the big AI summit. Plus - Marco Rubio atop the Acropolis. Why is he in Greece - and why did he make a speech that sounded an awful lot like a 2028 presidential bid? And Trump has been on the stump again. This time the hecklers joined him. —— You can watch episodes of Trump100 on our YouTube channel. Email us on trump100@sky.uk with your comments and questions.

Was the US nearly just attacked by Iranian drones… on British soil?
Extraordinary news from across the Atlantic mid-way through recording. Were Iranian drones about to attack an air base in the British countryside? That's reportedly why US bomber planes have left RAF Fairford. We will dig into what has happened. Plus: a revealing interview from Pete Hegseth's former right-hand man. It's a peek behind the Pentagon's curtain. And is Kansas in play in November? It's a state Republicans have not lost at Senate level in 94 years. They're getting nervous now though. Is no Republican safe from the prospect of a blue wave in November? Watch David’s report from North Carolina. —— You can watch episodes of Trump100 on our YouTube channel.

How a botched execution got political
A high profile execution in Tennessee goes horribly wrong. It’s political. We’ll explain why. Plus - Beardos and weirdos beware - Pete Hegseth’s coming after you. He’s delivered a State of the Force address - not a real speech. We sift through it so you don’t have to. And - America.gov. A new government website - Trump’s AI chatbot. We’ve been asking it some questions. Like - who won the 2020 election… and was it rigged? We’ll tell you the answers.

What does Trump know about the 'terror incident' in the UK that we don’t?
An alleged terror incident at an RAF base in the UK captures the attention of both sides of the pond. Donald Trump has weighed in. What does he know that we don’t? Plus - a massive industrial investment announced by the president on Monday. The largest steel plant to be built in Iowa. A big industrial push that you could argue is a thinly veiled effort to get Iowans onside ahead of Novembers elections. —— You can watch episodes of Trump100 on our YouTube channel.

Trump meets Xi in DC - who’s the bigger superpower now?
The president meets the Chinese leader in Washington DC. The red carpet is rolled out. Just about. The frenemies are more friends than foes for now - but the two are in a battle over AI - and questions still remain if Trump would ever support Taiwan if the Chinese ever sought to take the island. The day - also overshadowed by an ongoing media battle in the US. We digest it all. —— You can watch episodes of Trump100 on our YouTube channel.

Has Donald Trump just begun state-run television in America?
Trump versus the media. Again. But this time, the media has fought back. After banning CNN, MS NOW and Politico from the White House, major news organisations, including Fox News, have united in protest. The result? For the first time in decades, the president has travelled without the television press pool that usually follows him everywhere he goes. As Donald Trump arrives in New York for a crucial week of diplomacy, Mark Stone and James Matthews unravel a row that's become about much more than journalism. Plus, Trump's giant triumphal arch planned for Washington gets an unusual upgrade - and could be fitted with drones, snipers and ammunition storage.

Are Republicans in panic mode?
Donald Trump has begun his midterm campaign push, but not where you might expect. The president headed to North Carolina, a state Republicans usually count on winning, while Vice President JD Vance was dispatched to deep-red Kansas. So why are the party's biggest names spending time in states Trump carried comfortably in 2024? Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve has raised interest rates for the first time in more than three years as the financial cost of America's war with Iran continues to climb. Also a new report says there are reasonable grounds to believe the United States committed war crimes during strikes in Iran earlier this year. What does it mean for the Trump administration? And what does a picture taken through the window of Air Force One accidentally reveal about Donald Trump's plans for the Kennedy Center? You can watch episodes of Trump100 on our YouTube channel.

AI could end the world. So why is Trump not bothered?
Millions of people - if not billions - are terrified of AI's potential power. Donald Trump says their fears are being whipped up by "conspiracy theorists, treasonists and traitors". But some of the loudest warnings about AI are coming from the tech billionaires building it. So why is the president dismissing their concerns? What don't we know? Plus, a trip to Ireland sparks a potential British constitutional crisis after the president calls once more for a united Ireland. The Unionists - who are Donald Trump fans but staunchly against unification - are having to do quite the dance. And - Trump and his tracks. He's been DJing on Air Force One.

Has Donald Trump done enough in Dallas?
Is AI about to kill us all? The world could be waking up to the major technological advances coming out of California. Are humans right now building technology that will one day wipe us out? But first - Mark is still in Texas where Donald Trump just wrapped up the very first Republican midterm convention. The question is did these two days in Dallas do anything to shift the dial and arrest Trump’s lagging polling numbers? You can watch episodes of Trump100 on our YouTube channel.

Who will replace Trump?
The White House press briefing returned after a six-week absence, but it was JD Vance acting as press secretary. Or was it an audition for the Vice President to prove himself as the natural heir to Trump's political movement? While speaking on a faith podcast, JD Vance told listeners he’s been doing ‘God’s work’ where he also said the ‘antichrist walks among us’. Martha Kelner and Mark Stone also look at the growing speculation around the other Republicans who could be eyeing a White House run after Trump, and what the approaching midterms could mean for the future of MAGA.

Trump and Venezuela: the art of the oil deal

There's no sign of that simmering down anytime soon, as Iran and the US exchange fire again for the first time in weeks. Meanwhile, Trump reignites attacks on NBC journalist Kristen Welker.
