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."

That's right. We spent:
$40B for Argentina
$1B to refurbish Trump's Qatar jet
$250M for a new White House ballroom
$150M for Trump's golf outings
$520M for National Guard deployments
$200M for Kristi Noem's jets
But no money to lower our healthcare costs.

ICE secretly kidnap autistic boy during bathroom break—never notify parents.
Mother reported him missing a week ago—turns out ICE had him detained the whole time.
He was helping sell fruit and asked to go to the restroom—by the time she was done helping a customer he was gone.

ACOG reaffirms that acetaminophen is safe for managing pain and fever during pregnancy. No reputable studies support suggestions like those in HHS’s recent announcement linking acetaminophen use in pregnancy to autism; in fact, high-quality studies show no such risk. https://bit.ly/47Wxc59

But of course. Never pass up an opportunity to address your cult.
If you're not familiar with QAnon conspiracy dogwhistles, then you won't know that Stephen Miller just rattled off a bunch of them in a row, including "I am the storm" and "Light out of darkness." While these sound like dumb cliches on the surface, they're coded messages to Q cult adherents.

Maybe if you didn't shut down battery factories with ICE raids you'd be able to store the energy.
Energy Secretary Chris Wright: "With wind & solar, you don't know when they're gonna be there & when they're gonna go away. That's just not productive for the electricity grid. They end up just making the reliable stuff have to turn down when the wind is blowing, turn back up again when wind dies"

Let’s remember: What CBS cut were vicious unproven slander and uncharged allegations by a Cabinet secretary targeting a private person. If we can’t draw the line against such hideous lies, is there no line left?
CBS News is giving up the power it has to hold “Face the Nation” interviewees to account. Following pressure from Trump, it has agreed not to edit interviews, even to remove false statements or propaganda uttered by political operatives and officials, or add explanatory context.
