Who is Susie Wiles? | Global News Podcast

Published

on



US President Donald Trump’s most trusted aide, Susie Wiles, is the subject of a huge spread in Vanity Fair magazine this week, in which she speaks candidly about her job, her boss and many of the senior administration officials that she has to deal with.

In a series of interviews, she described Trump as having an “alcoholic’s personality”, Elon Musk as an “odd, odd duck” and the vice-president JD Vance as a “conspiracy theorist”.

We speak to our North America correspondent, Anthony Zurcher, about her comments and the reaction from those Wiles makes claims about.

Anthony also talks about the reaction in Washington to President Trump’s comments about the murder of the Hollywood director, Rob Reiner and his wife Michelle.

Saudia Arabia vows ‘serious response’ to Houthi attacks and other stories | Global News Podcast

Published

on



The Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen have continued to fire missiles towards Saudi Arabia, after a number of deadly attacks on Riyadh’s main international airport.

Almost all flights to and from the airport have been suspended. The Houthis say their actions are in retaliation for “brutal Saudi aggression” against areas they control in western Yemen.

Saudi Arabia’s energy minister Prince Abdul Aziz bin Salman told a conference in Riyadh that the seriousness of the attacks required an equally serious response from the Kingdom.
