Since Donald Trump took office in January, a lot has happened.
The White House budget office ordered a pause on all federal grants and loans.
The impact of the Trump administration's tariffs is already being felt in President Trump's efforts to radically remake the federal government.
The NPR Politics Podcast covers it all.

A day after NPR broke the story on a whistleblower's concerns about Doge's activities at his federal agency,
several Doge representatives visited that agency's headquarters.
NPR's Jenna McLaughlin has more.
In recent days,
a whistleblower working in the IT department of a small independent federal agency filed an official disclosure with Congress and spoke to NPR.
Daniel Baroulas works for the National Labor Relations Board, which protects employees' rights to unionize.
He says Doge requested the highest level access, right before a large chunk of data was removed from the system.
The NLRB told NPR that it never authorized access to the systems.
Then, a day later, senior officials at NLRB sent an email obtained by NPR,
revealing that Doge had made its first official visit to the agency,
and that two Doge representatives will be working there part-time.
NLRB says they will comply with Doge's requests, but will remove personal data from records before sharing them.
