A retrospective look at the 2015 election cycle recalls the Huffington Post's decision to cover Donald Trump's campaign in the "Entertainment" section rather than "Politics." Ryan Grim, then the Washington bureau chief, argued Trump was not a serious candidate. This strategy is cited as a major media miscalculation that failed to recognize the political movement behind the candidate.

A report by The Intercept alleges that the United States helped Pakistan secure an IMF bailout in exchange for a secret arms deal to provide munitions to Ukraine. The report suggests that former Prime Minister Imran Khan was removed from power partly because he did not support this military cooperation. Washington's influence in Pakistani politics is highlighted as a sacrifice of local democracy for Ukrainian war objectives.
