Every presidency tests the boundaries of executive authority, but the tools and intentions vary. Join for a cross-generational dialogue that bridges academic theory with contemporary reality, with Robert Lieberman, Krieger-Eisenhower Professor of Political Science at Johns Hopkins University and his research assistant, Ido Harlev, a junior majoring in history, moderated by Mary Bruce, Assistant Director of Public Programs, of Johns Hopkins SNF Agora Institute. Together, they'll examine not just the mechanisms of presidential power but its real-world impact under President Trump's second term. Their conversation will provide crucial insights into how presidential decisions ripple through government institutions and fundamentally reshape American democracy and our daily lives.

This is the first event in our upcoming series "First 100 Days, From Home to Abroad," examining the effects of U.S. presidential leadership across the U.S. and beyond, in partnership with the SNF Agora Institute at Johns Hopkins.
