Donald Trump - Second Term as U.S. President

Voted in for a second term, Trump managed to win all 7 swing states, and gain a majority in both the Senate and the House. The number one reason Trump voters gave were his promises on the economy which he emphasised relentlessly during his campaign. His political comeback involved surviving an assassination attempt, avoiding conviction for a 34-count felony charge, and receiving record funding with $522 million donated into GOP superPACs. His previous presidency was marked with controversy, deregulation, and straining international cooperation. Stay tuned for updates and critical analysis.

Justin Trudeau resignation

For months, Canada’s PM Trudeau has faced mounting pressure to step down. Despite growing frustrations among voters, political rivals, and even members of his own party, he initially vowed to remain as leader of the Liberal Party. However, he ultimately could not withstand the intensifying calls for his resignation. Trudeau, one of Canada’s longest-serving prime ministers, rose to power in 2015 on the back of his youthful charisma and an optimistic political vision. However, the resignation of Finance Minister Chrystia Freelandin mid-December marked a tipping point, following a series of controversies and unfulfilled promises.

Joe Biden's legacy

When U.S. President Joe Biden announced in July that he would not seek a second term, his decision was widely praised as a selfless act, prioritizing the preservation of American democracy over personal ambition. During his presidency, Biden guided the nation through the most severe pandemic in modern history. He ended America’s longest war, though the chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan marred this achievement. Biden championed a $1 trillion program to revitalize the nation’s infrastructure. He also secured $370 billion to accelerate clean energy initiatives and took swift action to support Ukraine in repelling Russian aggression. Yet, despite these accomplishments, Biden’s presidency will also be marked by his handling of the war in Gaza, persistent inflation, and the escalating border migration crisis.

Mexican Judicial Reform

Mexican Senate has approved a judicial reform proposed by outgoing President AMLO and supported by incoming President Claudia Sheinbaum. The reform, approved by a two-thirds majority, aims to change the process by which federal judges are selected, moving towards democratic elections by popular vote. The approval came just hours after hundreds of protesters stormed the Mexican Senate, forcing a temporary recess. Mexico's judiciary has long been criticised for corruption, including excessive salaries, ethics scandals and nepotism. The proposed reforms have sparked one of the most important constitutional debates in Mexico in recent years.
