Critics at Large will be back next week. In the meantime, you can hear Vinson Cunningham and Naomi Fry on a recent episode of The New Yorker’s Political Scene, hosted by Tyler Foggatt, where they consider several high-profile collisions of sports and politics. First, Cunningham talks to Foggatt about Donald Trump’s controversial appearance at a Knicks game during the team’s championship run. Then Fry and Foggatt discuss the U.F.C. fight that Trump hosted on the White House lawn—in celebration of America’s two-hundred-and-fiftieth anniversary, as well as his own eightieth birthday—and what it revealed about the President’s second term. Finally, the staff writer Louisa Thomas joins Foggatt to discuss how the Administration’s immigration policies, the war in Iran, and America’s precarious position on the international stage are impacting another major athletic event: the World Cup.
