This is The Guardian.

Hello, Jonathan Friedland here,

host of the Guardian's Politics Weekly America podcast.

Has Donald Trump been quietly building a political dynasty

to rival that of the Kennedys?

That's the question I'm answering in a new three-part special series.

Why did Ivanka and Jared step back from political life?

Is Don Jr. the obvious successor?

Or could the silent Maga favourite, Baron, be a dark horse?

In this series, I speak to the people who've spent time with members of Donald Trump's family,

getting their take on who helped him get to the White House and who might take over once he leaves.

It is clear that the water industry in this country is broken.

Our rivers, lakes and seas are polluted with record levels of sewage. The first

year has been so utterly chaotic that I think the Secretary of State should actually now be

considering his role in all of this. Quite frankly, I think Steve Reid now needs to resign and hand the job over to somebody

that could be more effective, more capable. I'm Pippa Carrera. And I'm Kieran Stacey.

Well, you might be sitting there packing a suitcase, buying extra sun cream, making last-minute plans for your summer holidays.

But Kieran and I is still here and still in the broom cupboard on our final summer push.

Our last live podcast, there will be lots of other things coming out over the summer to keep an eye on.

But we're here because Parliament's still here. Two more days and then the MPs disappear back to their constituencies. Everyone they hope has a bit of a breather, although I'm not sure previous summers have necessarily given them the respite they've hoped for. And Kieran and I and the rest of the team will be taking some time off as well. Plenty, though, going on before that happens.
