Summary

A deep dive into Trump's newly released National Counterterrorism Strategy, which explicitly identifies the US intelligence community as a domestic political threat. The discussion connects these findings to the DOJ's indictment of Mexican officials and the broader geopolitical realignment of the Sovereign Alliance.

Highlights

  • Main idea: The new National Counterterrorism Strategy labels US intelligence agencies as instruments of political persecution
  • Main idea: The DOJ is targeting Mexican governors for aiding and abetting terrorism and crimes against humanity

  • Practical takeaway: The shift toward a multipolar 'Sovereign Alliance' is accelerating as Western hegemony faces internal and external pressure
