The new National Security Strategy is a propaganda document, designed to be widely read. It is also a performative suicide. Hard to think of another great power ever abdicating its influence so quickly and so publicly. It will be worth following the reactions around the world, not just in Europe.
Trump's national security strategy is out and some of the Europe sections are shocking. "...the growing influence of patriotic European parties indeed
gives cause for great optimism."

This. Just this.
European reaction to the new American national strategy document
The headline, the main takeaway from a European viewpoint is this:

The transatlantic relationship as we know it is over. Yes, we kinda knew this. But this is now official US White House policy. Not a sppech, not a statement. The West as it used to be no longer exists.

One of Bergman’s best interviews. Fact checking all the way To get to the truth.
BERMAN: Would it be legal for police in Arkansas to kill suspected drug dealers on a boat in a lake?

TOM COTTON: The premise of your question is not well-founded

BERMAN: The answer is no. It would not be legal to kill them.

Jon Slavet announcing run for California Governor - just asked for Donald Trumps endorsement. Wants to bring back oil and hand over housing to private real estate developers (his experience). Another Trump land barron. Fortunately Californians won’t fall for this.

Watching the Putin open arms reception in India. Trump has dragged America into pariah world status and ceded world leadership in 10 short months. All while he betrays his greatest world allies.

There was a 13 point swing last night in TN-07.

If we see a 13 point swing in South Carolina in Nov 2026 Lindsey Graham will be retired and I will be the first ever pediatrician Senator.

GOP Rep. Mike Turner: "This activity that's happening in the Caribbean where they are hitting these boats -- these individuals if they were captured and tried and convicted, they would be guilty of criminal activity for which they're not subject to capital punishment. These people are being killed."

A corrupt president pardons a corrupt member of Congress for corrupt reasons. With multiple guilty pleas establishing a bribery-laundering scheme, Hakeem Jeffries still called the case “thin” and sought cover in a bribery-plagued Supreme Court.

A lesson in squandering potential inroads with voters.

True.
If super-intelligent AI is coming (and we avoid all the bad things), I feel like philosophy is the only degree worth getting. It’s amazing to me that the tech world hasn’t figured that out.

DUI Hire, Pete Hegseth, has been methodically destroying the prior JAG corp to remake its lawyers to be more aggressive and lawless.

I've got the details of the red flags since earlier this year and why enabling JAGs will make it easier for Hegseth’s illegal maneuvers.

My undying admiration will go to any reporter who brings up all the evidence of former Honduras President Hernandez's crimes running drugs, and reminds that he was convicted by a jury, and ask Trump how he can claim to be tackling the drug problem while letting such a large trafficker go free.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.
