Trump Overthrows US Government, Dan Doctoroff on NYC Rebuild | NYT Close Up with Sam Roberts

NY Times Chief White House Correspondent Peter Baker discusses Donald Trump's radical first weeks back in office, Elon Musk's unprecedented control over federal agencies and Trump's surprising "imperialist phase" - from Gaza to Greenland. Baker analyzes the constitutional crisis brewing as Trump challenges court authority, Musk's staggering $288 million campaign contribution, and why foreign aid has been frozen, affecting global humanitarian efforts. Then, former NYC Deputy Mayor Dan Doctoroff discusses NYC's post-COVID future and the battle with ALS.
