New Atlas live: Trump Tariffs, Fake “Peace,” Real War

Some comments from an article by Brian Berletic, just a little earlier but it states the immediate history up to now:

▪️Despite distancing itself from the corporate-funded “Project 2025” policy papers, the Trump administration is now systematically implementing every aspect of the policy blueprint;

▪️The Trump administration has announced what is likely to be a multi-trillion dollar, over-budget, over-schedule 6th generation warplane built by notoriously corrupt and incompetent aerospace manufacturer Boeing – the stated purpose according to the Trump administration is to establish air dominance around the globe (rather than defending American airspace);

▪️As the Trump administration continues Biden-era wars, US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth has proposed renaming the Department of Defense to the “Department of War,” part of a disturbing trend of embracing militarism and war abroad;

▪️As the US continues negotiating with Russia regarding the war in Ukraine, it poses as a “mediator” in what is actually its own proxy war on Russia, demonstrating dishonesty and bad faith;

▪️Senior members of the Trump administration “accidentally” invited a member of the US media into a Signal chat group discussing military operations against Yemen, most likely as an attempt to reinforce propaganda points regarding a supposed US-European “split,” and distract away from US operations against Yemen ultimately being part of a wider proxy war on Iran;

▪️Also this week, President Trump has endorsed pro-war, pro-interventionist neocon Lindsey Graham for reelection – casting serious doubt on the Trump administration’s goal of fighting against, rather than propping up what is often referred to as the “deep state;”
