“…China responded to Trump’s tariffs by cutting off supply of some of the most essential ingredients of the modern world...” China Just Turned Off U.S. Supplies Of Minerals Critical For Defense

“The 80-year period when the United States embraced the mantle of global economic leadership, when it forged alliances rooted in trust and mutual respect and championed the free and open exchange of goods and services is over.”

“…50% tariff imposed on Lesotho, avg wage <$5/day. Bcz Lesotho’s citizens are too poor to afford U.S. exports, while U.S. imports $237mill in diamonds, we have reserved close to our highest-possible tariff rate for one of the world’s poorest countries.” www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

The post-America world. Ironic how so many Americans cheer for the erosion of US world dominance. Trump’s transactional approach to everything — arrogantly unable to anticipate that insulting belligerence encourages countries to walk away from the “transaction” x.com/fareedzakari...

Clear & to the point with no punches pulled!🎯 open.substack.com/pub/johnpavl...

Here is my latest reflection. The attack on President Zelenskyy shattered the last of our wishful thinking. Many countries hoped that if they fawned over him, he would pick on someone else. Now we know: that we either stand up or get dragged into the abyss. charlieangus.substack.com/p/the-washin...

Australian newspaper "The Sun-Herald" opinion piece calls it out. American msm, take notes.

Not to pick on Carrie Underwood, though she is the subject of the post — this applies to all “christians” who supported Trump. I’d truly blood to hear the rational. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/dear-carri...
