Editor's note: Phil will be back in your inbox next week. Today, we're highlighting the latest coverage from TIME's Washington Bureau, including this exclusive from Eric Cortellessa on Lara Trump ahead of the debut of her Fox News show.
After the election, Lara Trump had options. She had just completed a successful stint as co-chair of the Republican National Committee, and her father-in-law, Donald Trump, was soon to become the most powerful person on earth. Initially, he wanted her to replace Marco Rubio, his choice for Secretary of State, in the U.S. Senate. Elon Musk offered her a position in the Department of Government Efficiency, his radical cost-cutting operation.
Ultimately, though, Lara chose another route: her own show on Fox News.
As with many things in Trump 2.0, it's a situation without precedent. Never before has a close relative of a sitting President hosted a high-profile program on a major news network. The debut of "My View with Lara Trump" on Saturday marks a capstone in the symbiotic relationship between Trump and Fox.
