The Architect's Newspaper has published its latest Eavesdrop column under the headline "Trump as redliner-in-chief, nationalizing the A&E system, and an exhibition by Solange."
The column's author frames the piece as a set of quick observations gathered during Climate Week, written "ahead of this weekend's Nor'easter" while "doomscrolling the news." The author describes the resulting items as running "the gamut from tired to wired."
The headline points to three subjects the column addresses: former President Donald Trump's housing and urban policy role, described as "redliner-in-chief"; the nationalization of the A&E (architecture and engineering) system; and an exhibition by the artist Solange.
The piece appeared on archpaper.com in September 2026 as part of The Architect's Newspaper's recurring Eavesdrop feature, which collects short items and observations from the architecture world.
Readers can expect the full column to expand on each of the three headline topics when accessed directly at The Architect's Newspaper.
