A full two centuries after the original Monroe Doctrine, Donald Trump has conceptualized a new version of the 1823 doctrine for the modern era. In stark contrast to Globalism, the Trump Doctrine would put an end to America's involvement in global free trade and instead would prioritize the Western Hemisphere.Unfortunately for Central and South America, they just became the new target of American interest, which explains the recent provocation with Venezuela. As the American Empire consolidates in the Western Hemisphere, the acquisition of natural resources will begin, as the corporations descend into newly opened and deregulated markets through commercial diplomacy.—Watch the video version on one of the Macroaggressions Channels:Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/Macroaggressions YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MacroaggressionsPodcast—MACRO & Charlie Robinson LinksHypocrazy Audiobook: https://amzn.to/4aogwmsThe Octopus of Global Control Audiobook: https://amzn.to/3xu0rMmWebsite: www.Macroaggressions.io Merch Store: https://macroaggressions.dashery.com/ Link Tree: https://linktr.ee/macroaggressionspodcast—Activist Post FamilyActivist Post: www.ActivistPost.com Natural Blaze: www.NaturalBlaze.com —Support Our SponsorsAnarchapulco: https://anarchapulco.com/ | Promo Code: MACROC60 Power: https://go.shopc60.com/PBGRT/KMKS9/ | Promo Code: MACROChemical Free Body: https://chemicalfreebody.com/macro/ | Promo Code: MACROWise Wolf Gold & Silver: https://macroaggressions.gold/ | (800) 426-1836LegalShield: www.DontGetPushedAround.com EMP Shield: www.EMPShield.com | Promo Code: MACROGround Luxe Grounding Mats: https://groundluxe.com/MACRO Christian Yordanov's Health Program: www.LiveLongerFormula.com/macro Above Phone: https://abovephone.com/macro/Van Man: https://vanman.shop/?ref=MACRO | Promo Code: MACROThe Dollar Vigilante: https://dollarvigilante.spiffy.co/a/O3wCWenlXN/4471 Nesa's Hemp: www.NesasHemp.com | Promo Code: MACROAugason Farms: https://augasonfarms.com/MACRO —

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Twist of Irony Clay and Buck dive into the fallout from the historic Delta Force raid in Venezuela, which captured Nicolás Maduro and killed 32 Cuban bodyguards. They explore the strategic implications of Operation Absolute Resolve, framing it as a modern reaffirmation of the Monroe Doctrine and a bold move by President Trump to reassert U.S. dominance in the Western Hemisphere. The hosts discuss how this operation signals a shift in global power dynamics, undermining Chinese and Russian influence and exposing the weakness of authoritarian regimes like Venezuela, Cuba, and Iran. Republicans Stay at Hotels, Too Hilton Hotels cut ties with a franchisee after reports surfaced that ICE agents’ reservations were canceled. Clay and Buck frame this as a major shift in corporate behavior, contrasting today’s swift response with the era of performative activism during 2020. They credit the Bud Light backlash as a turning point, warning brands against alienating half the country and highlighting Michael Jordan’s timeless advice: “Republicans buy sneakers too.” From corporate culture, the discussion pivots to economic policy and tariffs, as Buck cites new research showing Trump’s tariff strategy did not fuel inflation, contrary to predictions by mainstream economists. Clay and Buck argue that tariffs, combined with strong GDP growth, could help balance the federal budget by 2026–2027 if upheld by the Supreme Court. They blast the failures of modern monetary theory and Biden-era spending, emphasizing common-sense economics and Trump’s vindication on trade policy. What Happens in NY, Won't Stay in NY Clay and Buck discussing the decline of New York City under Mayor Zohran Mamdani, warning that his radical socialist agenda—framed as replacing “rugged individualism with the warmth of collectivism”—could devastate property rights and public safety. They highlight viral clips of Mamdani’s allies advocating for housing as a “collective good,” signaling a push toward shared equity models that undermine private ownership. The hosts argue this reflects the broader influence of unmarried progressive women on Democratic policy, calling them the driving force behind destructive cultural and political trends. The conversation shifts to economic migration and the future of financial hubs, citing predictions that Miami and South Florida could replace New York as America’s financial capital, while tech billionaires flock to Texas. Clay and Buck attribute this to post-COVID remote work flexibility and tax advantages in states like Florida, Texas, and Tennessee, contrasting these environments with high-tax states such as New York and California. They warn that as wealthy residents flee, blue states will raise taxes further, accelerating the exodus. TX Rep. Chip Roy An in-depth interview with Congressman Chip Roy, who praises President Trump’s bold leadership in Operation Absolute Resolve, the mission that captured Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro. Roy explains the strategic importance of stabilizing Venezuela, restoring its oil production, and preventing resources from flowing to adversaries like China, Russia, and Iran. He emphasizes that this is not “nation-building” but a critical move to secure the Western Hemisphere under the Trump Doctrine, strengthen U.S. energy independence, and protect national security. Roy also warns of challenges ahead, including corruption within Venezuela’s regime, and stresses the need for strong rule of law and economic recovery. The discussion then pivots to the Somali daycare fraud scandal in Minnesota, which has rocked Governor Tim Walz’s political career. Clay and Buck play audio from Walz’s defiant press conference, where he vows not to resign despite mounting evidence of billions in fraudulent welfare payments. Roy underscores how grassroots investigations—like the viral exposé by a 23-year-old YouTuber—are filling the void left by legacy media, signaling a new era of citizen journalism and accountability. He calls for aggressive federal prosecutions, noting that fraud tied to federal funds warrants U.S. attorney involvement, and predicts that heads will roll as investigations expand nationwide.

President Trump and his aides are now speaking of a foreign policy where pressure and the use of military might can be applied both to adversaries and, potentially, allies. Nick Schifrin has two views on the Trump Doctrine from Todd Robinson, who served as the top U.S. diplomat in Venezuela before being kicked out of the country, and Andrés Martínez-Fernández of The Heritage Foundation.

America just reminded the world what consequences look like.In this no-commercial, 15-minute special edition of The Right Side, Doug Billings breaks down the capture of Nicolás Maduro and explains why this was not war, not theater, and not nation-building — but targeted law enforcement rooted in American sovereignty and self-defense.This episode explains: • Why removing Maduro benefits the United States • Why comparisons to Iraq and Iran are intellectually lazy • How narco-states, cartel pipelines, and regional instability affect American communities • Why the “everything is theater” mindset is dangerous to a republic • How the Trump Doctrine is re-emerging: consequences without quagmiresThis is not punditry. This is strategic analysis, plain truth, and America First realism.Support the show

When did we truly become Americans — and what did the Founders actually believe about defending our nation? In this powerful episode, Tara dismantles the myth that America was ever meant to be isolationist. From the ratification of the Bill of Rights in 1791, to the Monroe Doctrine just 30 years later, Tara walks through the history the political class hopes you've forgotten — and why it matters right now. This episode connects early American strategy to modern threats: China's control of rare earth minerals, infiltration through student visas, agricultural warfare, and the global pressure campaign unfolding across our hemisphere. This isn't Iraq. This isn't Afghanistan. This is something very different — and very real. History didn't change.
Hour 1 of The Mark Cox Morning Show opens with sharp criticism of Democrats echoing America's adversaries in their outrage over Trump's capture of Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro. Marc and Kim mock left-wing hypocrisy, break down media reaction from figures like Ana Navarro and Don Lemon, and feature Stephen Miller defending the Trump Doctrine as a necessary show of U.S. strength. Kim's “On a Whim” tackles the absurdities of woke hospital and corporate policies in the transgender debate, while Marc closes the hour reflecting on his firsthand experience at the January 6th rally, blasting media distortion of that day's events. #Venezuela #Maduro #MediaBias #KimOnAWhim #January6 #MarkCoxMorningShow
In this January 5 episode of RattlerGator Report, JB White opens the first full week of 2026 with a wide-ranging, unscripted broadcast that centers on Venezuela and the reported capture of Nicolás Maduro. JB walks listeners through his thinking on the operation, pushing back on simplified explanations and emphasizing the multiple layers involved, from foreign intelligence interests to global power dynamics. He discusses Donald Trump's role as commander in chief, the strategic use of confusion, and why the event should not be reduced to oil, CIA obsession, or surface-level narratives. The conversation expands to include the Monroe Doctrine, British financial influence, Cuba, China, Russia, and the broader geopolitical chessboard surrounding Venezuela. Along the way, JB weaves in personal updates, audience interaction, sports commentary, and reflections on discernment, leverage, and misinformation. The episode closes with continued emphasis on thinking beyond single explanations, understanding hierarchy and strategy, and recognizing the scale of what JB views as a world-historic moment unfolding in real time.
When President Trump meets Israel's Benjamin Netanyahu today, their conversation should reflect a fundamental transformation over the past year. Israel has emerged from a status some have described as a U.S. “protectorate” to an exemplar – and regional pillar – of the Trump Doctrine. It expects American allies to bear the principal burden of their own security, and – with U.S. material support – that of their neighborhoods, as well. None does that more effectively than Israel. She has laid low her enemies and ours and is greatly enhancing our mutual interests in the eastern Mediterranean and Red Sea. Let's pray that the partnership thus forged between Messrs. Trump and Netanyahu will be further strengthened today and that, pursuant to the Trump Doctrine, this powerful bilateral alliance – not misbegotten deals with actual foes – will be the centerpiece of U.S. Mideast policy going forward. This is Frank Gaffney.
In this episode of the Chuck ToddCast, Chuck examines Donald Trump’s holiday Truth Social spree as a revealing window into his worldview and leadership style. From angry, vaguely threatening posts tied to Epstein to Christmas messages laced with grievance and insults, Trump’s online behavior paints a picture of a lonely, aggrieved figure who often sounds less like a head of state and more like a mob boss issuing warnings. Chuck unpacks how Trump’s rhetoric on immigration, religion, and military force—sometimes delivered in the same breath as holiday greetings—reflects a transactional “Trump Doctrine” where identity and loyalty justify power, and sovereignty becomes negotiable. The conversation then widens to the global consequences of this approach. Chuck argues that Trump’s selective isolationism and deal-making have badly damaged America’s reputation, eroded trust with Europe, and risk pushing allies toward China in search of stability. By prioritizing short-term wins and performative toughness over alliances and norms, Trump may be trading momentary leverage for long-term strategic loss—reshaping the global order in ways that could haunt the United States for a generation. Finally, Chuck hops into the ToddCast Time Machine to the date Ellis Island closed its doors for immigrant processing and traces the messy history of immigration policy in the United States. He also answers listeners’ question in the “Ask Chuck” segment and does a roundup from the world of sports. Get your wardrobe sorted and your gift list handled with Quince. Don't wait!

In this episode of the Chuck ToddCast, Chuck examines Donald Trump’s holiday Truth Social spree as a revealing window into his worldview and leadership style. From angry, vaguely threatening posts tied to Epstein to Christmas messages laced with grievance and insults, Trump’s online behavior paints a picture of a lonely, aggrieved figure who often sounds less like a head of state and more like a mob boss issuing warnings. Chuck unpacks how Trump’s rhetoric on immigration, religion, and military force—sometimes delivered in the same breath as holiday greetings—reflects a transactional “Trump Doctrine” where identity and loyalty justify power, and sovereignty becomes negotiable. The conversation then widens to the global consequences of this approach. Chuck argues that Trump’s selective isolationism and deal-making have badly damaged America’s reputation, eroded trust with Europe, and risk pushing allies toward China in search of stability. By prioritizing short-term wins and performative toughness over alliances and norms, Trump may be trading momentary leverage for long-term strategic loss—reshaping the global order in ways that could haunt the United States for a generation. Then, Yaron Weitzman, author of “A Hollywood Ending: The Dreams and Drama of the LeBron Lakers”, joins Chuck to unpack the remarkable rise, impact, and legacy of LeBron James—on the court, in Los Angeles, and far beyond basketball. Drawing from his reporting and authorship, Weitzman explains how access-driven sports journalism shapes the stories we’re told, why LeBron was always more than just another superstar chasing rings, and how the Lakers–LeBron partnership became a mutually saving force for two global institutions. The conversation traces LeBron’s path from Miami to Cleveland to Los Angeles, the myths around his ambition and loyalty, and how “The Decision” reshaped the power dynamics between players and franchises. The episode also looks ahead to LeBron’s next chapter: his eventual role as an owner, the possibility of a farewell tour, how Bronny factors into his decisions, and what a post-LeBron Lakers era might look like. Weitzman and Todd explore LeBron’s business instincts, cultural influence, complicated relationship with fans and social media, and why—despite universal respect—he’s never been universally beloved. In the end, they ask the defining question of any icon: how history will remember LeBron James, and who gets to tell that story. Finally, Chuck hops into the ToddCast Time Machine to the date Ellis Island closed its doors for immigrant processing and traces the messy history of immigration policy in the United States.

JB White opens this December 22 episode reflecting on recovery, gratitude, and a rare moment of sports joy before moving into a wide-ranging analysis of global power dynamics and American strategy. The conversation emphasizes the importance of “thinking forward,” exploring intelligence beyond human limits, artificial intelligence, and energy as the true battleground of the future. JB breaks down Devin Nunes' remarks on fusion energy and Trump Media's role in advancing next-generation power, framing it as skin-in-the-game leadership rather than conflict of interest. From there, the episode expands into geopolitics, critiquing European globalism, censorship, and what JB calls communism under new branding, while highlighting rising resistance across Europe. He examines Ukraine, Russia, NATO, and U.S. leverage through the lens of the National Security Strategy, arguing that Trump's approach prioritizes regional responsibility, economic power, and long-term stability. The episode closes with reflections on culture, discernment, and the rapid changes unfolding as America reasserts leadership at home and abroad.

Trump dumpt Europa. In deze aflevering duiken Maarten van Rossem en Tom Jessen in de nieuwe Nationale Veiligheidsstrategie van de Amerikaanse regering, ook wel de Trump Doctrine genoemd. Waarom wil Washington de speciale relatie met Europa beëindigen? Hoe serieus moeten we dat nemen? En hoe moet Europa reageren nu het strategisch op eigen benen moet staan?
Burning Bright and guest Brad Zerbo break down the emerging “Trump Doctrine” as they connect the administration's diplomatic maneuvers, foreign-policy posture, and escalating information war to a broader strategic realignment. They explore how Trump's peace deals, regional power restructuring, and refusal to follow legacy-media narratives reveal a coherent geopolitical philosophy rooted in sovereignty, deterrence, and economic leverage. From Africa to the Middle East to America's domestic political battles, BB and Brad analyze how Trump's actions, rather than pundit rhetoric, define the doctrine, and why the establishment finds it so destabilizing. Along the way they examine information-war dynamics, media manipulation, and the signals hidden inside official statements and global reactions. With humor, sharp pattern recognition, and BB's signature narrative framing, this episode unpacks how Trump's approach is reshaping alliances, exposing institutional decay, and accelerating a historic shift in global power.
Donald Trump this week went on an all-out racist tirade against Somali Americans as ICE agents descend on Minneapolis, New Orleans, and other cities to carry out mass arrests of immigrant workers. People all over the United States are taking to the streets on Saturday December 6 in protest against a new US war, this time in Latin America against the people of Venezuela. Brian Becker is joined by Layan Fuleihan to discuss.This is a preview of a patrons-only episode.

2025-12-06 | DAILY UPDATES #072 | We continue our analysis of the National Security Strategy of the Trump regime, a document that claims to defend the West, by turning its guns on Europe. It's a malign document, that fleshes out Vance's speech at the 2025 Munich Security Forum. In that speech, Vance argued that Europe's principal danger came from erosion of democratic norms — especially censorship, suppression of dissent, and exclusion, widely interpreted as an attack on the structure of the European Union and its institutions. This NSS goes further and effectively declares that Europe's systems of governance are antithetical to America's interests. It's a mandate for malign interference, leans in to overtly support the far right and extremist groups, libertarian absolutists, oligarchical interests and is a mandate for regime change. ----------SOURCES: National Security Strategy of the United States of America, White House, December 2025 (PDF).https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/NSS-2025.pdfMichelle L.

On the Dec. 4 edition, breaking the back of inflation, trouble in Venezuela, the importance of finding the right person to share your life with, and more on #TheWorldAccordingToBenStein
JB White returns from Thanksgiving energized and full of stories, kicking off the December 1 RattlerGator Report with celebrations over the Gators' big win and the Jaguars' renewed momentum. He breaks down the quarterback drama, the rise of Jaden Ball, and his relief at Florida hiring John Sumrall instead of Lane Kiffin, diving into what true program culture requires in the NIL era. From there, JB shifts into broader reflection, sharing his “Back At Ya” theory, his ongoing conversations with Oak, and why he believes recent global developments are confirming the strength of what he calls the “Trump Doctrine.” Reviewing emerging commentary on Ukraine peace negotiations, global financial realignments, and America's shift toward Bitcoin-backed sovereignty, he argues that Trump's tariff strategy, decentralization, and crypto-friendly policy posture represent a second American Revolution aimed at dismantling parasitic global systems. After sponsor reads and lively chat interaction, JB closes with thoughts on Venezuela, Cuba, geopolitics, and the stakes of the battles ahead—ending the show with his trademark humor, bluntness, and patriotic conviction.

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for October 24, 2025. 0:30 Has James Carville finally gone off the deep end? We react to the “Ragin’ Cajun’s” shocking rant, where he fantasizes about shaving the heads of Trump supporters, dressing them in orange jumpsuits, and parading them down Pennsylvania Avenue to be spat upon. And we unpack the left’s obsession with public shaming and “thought crimes" and thechilling parallels to Orwell’s 1984 and the real-world silencing of conservatives during the COVID era. 9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. President Trump has terminated all trade negotiations with Canada over a TV ad that features a clip of President Ronald Reagan seemingly denouncing tariffs. Inflation ticked up a bit in September, but not as much as was expected. The USS Gerald Ford Aircraft Group is moving into the Caribbean sea as the US is ramping up military strikes against drug runners coming from South America. 12:30 Get NSorb from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 13:30 We dig into the spiritual sickness spreading through half of America: a willful blindness where truth, logic, and reason no longer matter, only outrage. From Trump Derangement Syndrome to a culture that prizes victimhood over virtue, we explore how emotion has replaced truth on the left. 16:30 We ask American Mamas — Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson — how they can be okay with Donald Trump tearing down part of the White House. We unpack the latest round of media outrage, sparked by Trump’s privately funded ballroom project. From Chelsea Clinton’s dramatic tweets to Hakeem Jeffries’ call for an investigation, we dig into the hypocrisy surrounding presidential renovations. Nearly every president—from Teddy Roosevelt to Barack Obama—has left their mark on the White House. So why is it suddenly a scandal when President Trump does the same? 23:00 House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is endorsing Zoran Mamdani—a New York politician so far left, he makes Bernie Sanders look like Milton Friedman. We unpack Mamdani’s extremist rhetoric, including his call to “globalize the Intifada,” and what that really means for Jewish communities at home and abroad. 25:30 What exactly is the “Trump Doctrine”? It's simple: be nice to me, I’ll be nice to you — cross me, and you’ll regret it. We break down President Trump’s decision to hold off on deploying the National Guard to crime-ridden San Francisco after a respectful call from the city’s Democratic mayor, Daniel Lurie. It's a perfect example of Trump’s “tit-for-tat” strategy in action — strength tempered by reason, toughness balanced with generosity. 32:30 Get Prodovite from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 33:30 Canada just got a cold dose of the Trump Doctrine. We break down the fallout after Ontario Premier Doug Ford pulled a $75 million taxpayer-funded ad campaign that deceptively used Ronald Reagan’s words to attack U.S. tariffs. Turns out, the ad violated Canadian law — and when Trump found out, he didn’t just hit back, he shut down the negotiations altogether. 36:00 Plus, it's Fake News Friday! We're putting you to the test with our weekly game of headlines—are they real news, fake news, or really fake news? From Trump flyingan F-16 and dumping poo on protestors, to a White House ballroom ball pit, and a Democrat Senate candidate's Nazi tattoo, can you spot the fake news? Play along, keep score, and share your results with us on Facebook page: facebook.com/AmericanGroundRadio. 40:30 As the media piles on ICE once again, we take a step back to ask a simple question: what’s to hate about enforcing the law? From sanctuary city standoffs to repeat offenders shielded by politics, Immigration and Customs Enforcement has become a symbol of accountability in an age of chaos. It's not cruelty — it’s common sense — and that Americans are finally saying “whoa” to open borders and lawlessness. 42:00 And we finish off with some words of wisdom about the White House.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 27: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: Today is the dawn of Trump’s new policy: destroy America. Literally. Well, destroy part of the WHITE HOUSE – Literally. And steal $230 million from the government and pretend he’s going to give it to charity; AND give away 172 million dollars for two private jets for Kristi Noem; AND give Ukraine and eventually Europe to Putin, AND make America a one-party nation, AND get elected Democrats killed, AND destroy America. Literally. Well, ok, describing this as Trump’s new policy to destroy, steal, give away AND get elected Democrats killed - that’s not ENTIRELY fair. Because it’s not really NEW. He has long tried to stochastically encourage violence against opponents, but now key minions like Tom Emmer and Tom Homan talk about the quote “terrorist wing” of the Democratic party, and, Presto! A January 6th traitor Trump personally pardoned tries to assassinate Democratic House Leader Hakeem Jeffries. Looks like cause and effect to me. Josh Marshall just invoked imagery I used in 2016 and he’s right: Trump has entered (actually RE-entered) the stage in which he is the omnipotent petulant child, Anthony, from the terrifying Twilight Zone episode “It’s A Good Life" who could destroy the world and kill people just by thinking it. Josh is right. I was right. Trump is now destroying just because it gives him something to do. And because in his psychosis it no longer matters whether he's constructing or deconstructing, it only matters that HE does it. ALSO: The Democrats can stop self-flagellating. Party identification has now swung back away from the Republicans and the seven-point margin is nearly as big as the Dems' was in 2012. So let's focus instead on taking out the trash like Graham Platner. For 17 years or so, the populist Maine Democrat somehow didn't know that was a nazi tattoo on his chest, which I suppose is possible. But when it was going to come out, instead of going right to a tattoo parlor and holding a news conference explaining and apologizing as they turned it into something else, he released a drunken video and waited three days to (supposedly) actually fix the problem. He has no judgment. None. Get out. B-Block (33:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Doing the right thing for the wrong reason. Bob Iger and Disney didn't walk back the Jimmy Kimmel firing because of justice and the 1st Amendment. They did it because of a boycott. The Andrew Cuomo self-destruction tour continues as he confuses the New York Jets and the New York Mets. And The Washington Post columnist who said we'd be fine whether Hillary or Trump was elected is back with more stupidity. C-Block (49:12) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: This time of year, 51 years ago, I was about to sign up to go to Boston University when a radio student there gave me the inside story of the limitations undergrads faced. He talked me out of it. I was 15 and he was 20 and his name was Howard Stern.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On 9/11, the United States suffered the deadliest terrorist attack in its history, an event that reshaped American foreign policy for generations to come. In the years that followed, the Global War on Terror consumed national focus, leaving little room to craft a broader grand strategy that addressed rising global powers, shifting alliances, and emerging challenges across the Transatlantic region, the Middle East, the Indo-Pacific, the African continent, and the Western Hemisphere. As a result, U.S. statesmen, scholars, and policymakers now find themselves in search of a strategic framework on par with Cold War-era containment. Others argue there is no coherent “Trump Doctrine” at all—just a series of reactive shocks. In this timely and thought-provoking address, Dr. Kiron Skinner will offer a clear-eyed assessment of the current state of U.S. foreign policy. Attendees can expect a rigorous, nonpartisan exploration of the facts and frameworks shaping America's role on the world stage today.

Trump has been making some foreign policy moves I didn't entirely expect. He seems determined to get a nuclear deal with Iran. He's been public about his disagreements with Benjamin Netanyahu. He called Vladimir Putin “crazy.” And he keeps talking about wanting his legacy to be that of a peacemaker. So what, at this point, can we say about Trump's foreign policy? What is he trying to do, and how well is it working? If he succeeds, what might his legacy be? Emma Ashford is a senior fellow at the Stimson Center, a foreign policy think tank, and the author of the forthcoming book “First Among Equals.” She comes from a school of thought that's more sympathetic to the “America First” agenda than I typically am. But she's also cleareyed about what is and isn't working and the ways that Trump is an idiosyncratic foreign policy maker who isn't always following an “America First” agenda himself.

Why the FBI Remains Broken Despite Trump, Patel & Bongino In this episode of The P.A.S. Report, Professor Nick Giordano breaks down President Trump's visit to the Middle East and what it means for global power dynamics. From boxing in Iran and reversing Biden's foreign policy failures to blunting China's growing influence and reigniting the Abraham Accords, Trump is making it clear that America is back as the global leader on the world stage. Professor Giordano dives into the strategic, economic, and ideological implications of this trip, including the $1.4 trillion investment into U.S. companies and the lingering questions about Saudi Arabia's role in 9/11. Is this the beginning of a lasting peace, or just another geopolitical gamble? Episode Highlights: How Trump's Middle East visit isolates Iran as the Shia Crescent has been broken The $1.4 trillion investment in American companies and the rollback of Biden's AI export ban Why radical Islam, 9/11 truths, and national security threats still shape U.S.-Middle East relations
