In this episode of the NPR Up First podcast, three key topics are discussed: the fragile two-month ceasefire proposal between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon, President-elect Trump's controversial plan to use presidential impoundment authority to reduce government spending, and conservative strategist Leonard Leo's efforts to broaden conservative influence beyond the courts. The ceasefire faces several potential challenges, while Trump's approach raises legal questions and could lead to court battles. Meanwhile, Leo is working to extend conservative reach into areas like Hollywood and Silicon Valley, aiming to challenge what he sees as "liberal dominance."
