TIME Magazine released its annual list of “100 most influential people” on Wednesday, including many of President Trump’s political allies and rivals.

The outlet considers recommendations from reporters and sources from around the world, and highlights leaders in the political, business and artistic spheres.

Trump himself is named on the list, along with several members of his administration. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Middle East special envoy Steve Witkoff, White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles and Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Gen. Dan Caine also made the list.

Rubio’s biography on the list notes his dual role as both Secretary of State and National Security Adviser and his past criticism of Trump.

“The nimble shift from Trump critic to the executor of Trump’s foreign policy has repaired Rubio’s relationship with the MAGA base and puts him in position to possibly inherit the Trumpist movement in 2028,” TIME correspondent Philip Elliott wrote.

Rubio and Vice President Vance are widely considered frontrunners in the Republican race to replace Trump at the end of his second term.

Additionally, several heads of state who have allied themselves with the president made TIME’s list, including Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi.

Netanyahu and Trump have coordinated attacks against Tehran, launching joint strikes against the country at the end of February amid nuclear deal negotiations.

Several of Trump’s political adversaries also made the list.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D), a frequent opponent of the White House, received recognition for his “withering criticism” of Trump. Newsom is widely anticipated to be a Democratic frontrunner in the 2028 presidential race.

Additionally, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and Pope Leo XIV are named on the list. Both leaders have clashed with Trump over the war in Iran.

After the U.S. and Israel launched a joint military operation on Iran at the end of February, Carney called the strikes a “failure of the international order.”

And the leader of the Catholic Church has spoken about the conflict more broadly, urging a cessation in violence and a return to the negotiation table.

Trump accused the American pontiff of believing Iran should have a nuclear weapon and called him “weak” on crime. Pope Leo responded, saying he had “no fear” of the Trump administration.

Other political opponents of the president on the list include Democrats New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey.
