Coming up on Washington Week with The Atlantic:

Trump’s First Week Back in the White House

President Donald Trump kicks off his return to the White House by taking numerous actions aimed at overwhelming his critics and the media. Trump issued a flurry of executive orders that rolled back Biden-era policies, sent U.S. troops to the border with Mexico, and pardoned hundreds of Jan. 6 rioters, including the leader of a far-right extremist group.
