For decades, the United States welcomed China into the global economic system with the hope that trade would foster liberalization and mutual benefit. Instead, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) exploited America’s openness, weaponizing trade and investment as tools of asymmetric warfare. Under the guise of partnership, Beijing built an economy fueled by intellectual property theft, currency manipulation, and state-subsidized industries designed to obliterate foreign competitors. Now, under the leadership of President Donald Trump, the United States is no longer playing the sucker. Trump’s bold tariffs and strategic economic realignment mark not just a response—but the first real counteroffensive. Voices like…

With Ronald Johnson confirmed as U.S. Ambassador to Mexico, the stage is set for a new chapter in one of the world’s most critical bilateral relationships. As Johnson highlighted, the deep economic integration, security challenges, and shared cultural ties between the U.S. and Mexico make this partnership “of paramount importance.” Throughout history, special relationships between world leaders have shaped global stability and prosperity. Think of Clinton and Blair, who forged a powerful Anglo-American alliance that redefined cooperation in trade, defense, and diplomacy. These relationships aren’t just symbolic—they drive real change. But today, Mexico’s government treats the U.S. as an opponent…
In his second term, President Donald Trump is once again applying the hardball negotiating tactics that made his 1987 book, The Art of the Deal, a business bestseller—and this time, on the world stage. His new wave of tariffs, announced in April 2025, signal a bold effort to correct decades of trade imbalances and reposition the U.S. as the undisputed leader in global commerce. With a baseline 10% tariff on all imports and even steeper rates targeting specific countries, Trump is executing a strategy aimed at achieving what he calls “fair and reciprocal trade.” This article explores how Trump’s tariff…
In an era marked by spiritual confusion and institutional collapse, Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò has emerged as a defiant voice of clarity—and in Donald Trump, he has found a most unlikely yet powerful ally. Once a Vatican diplomat, Viganò now speaks as a prophetic outsider. His letters to Trump, written between 2020 and 2024, resonate with urgency and conviction. More than political commentaries, they cast Trump as a providential figure in a shared battle: to restore a Church adrift and reawaken its divine mission. From Diplomat to Prophet Born in 1941 in Varese, Italy, Viganò rose steadily through the Church…
Donald Trump’s tariffs, often dismissed as impulsive protectionism, warrant a deeper examination—not as a throwback to outdated trade policies, but as a pragmatic counterweight to a global economic system that has long tilted against the United States. Rather than mere barriers, these tariffs serve as strategic levers, shields against exploitative practices, and drivers of domestic strength. This article presents a fresh, compelling case for Trump’s tariff approach, blending empirical evidence, innovative reasoning, and a nod to Trump’s unmatched negotiating brilliance that has redefined trade dynamics—now earning praise from some of the world’s most influential figures. The Strategic Logic: Tariffs as…

El gobierno de Claudia Sheinbaum arrancó con grandes promesas y un ambicioso “Plan México” que pretende posicionar al país entre las 10 principales economías del mundo, reducir la dependencia de importaciones asiáticas y generar millones de empleos. Sin embargo, a pocos meses de su gestión, la realidad económica pinta un panorama sombrío que desmiente el discurso triunfalista. Pérdida de empleos, inflación persistente, deuda insostenible, crecimiento anémico, violencia descontrolada y un déficit fiscal histórico son solo algunos de los males que aquejan a México en 2025. Este artículo desmenuza estas “malas noticias” y demuestra cómo el plan de Sheinbaum no solo…
