Robert Barnes: America First, Populism, Trump & Perpetual War Oct 28, 2025

Show notes

Robert Barnes is an American lawyer, free speech champion, and political commentator. Barnes discusses why populism and resistance to the concentration of power in an elite are at the centre of the American experience, and how “America First” was intended to be a strategic retreat from empire and instead restore the foundations of the American Republic. The ability to break away from perpetual war and imperial follies is proving to be difficult, and Trump—much like his predecessors—is hardly in control of his own government.Follow Prof. Glenn Diesen:Substack: https://glenndiesen.substack.com/X/Twitter: https://x.com/Glenn_DiesenPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/glenndiesenSupport the research of Prof. Glenn Diesen: PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/glenndiesenBuy me a Coffee: buymeacoffee.com/gdiesengGo Fund Me: https://gofund.me/09ea012fBooks by Prof. Glenn Diesen: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Glenn-Diesen/author/B09FPQ4MDL?ref=sr_ntt_srch_lnk_1&qid=1761554002&sr=1-1&isDramIntegrated=true&shoppingPortalEnabled=true

Bertrand de La Chesnais: Europe's Problems are Internal - Not Russian Oct 24, 2025

Show notes

Lieutenant General Bertrand de La Chesnais of the French Armed Forces served in many operational theatres and had several high-level roles within the French military establishment. Lieutenant General Bertrand de La Chesnais discusses the failure of Western policies toward Russia and the possibility of disaster by continuing to go down the same path. The risks are growing, and Europe continues to posture despite the disasters that await it if it escalates further. Reality must reassert itself, which entails Ukraine functioning as a neutral buffer and recognising that Russia must have a seat at the table in Europe. This means that the entire format for a federalised Europe must be reconsidered, which has also undermined the traditional nation-state. Europe must rebuild itself rather than drag the rest of the world into its decline. Europe should clean its own house first and reverse the decline caused by debt, deindustrialization, social disorientation, loss of values, and poor education.

Einar Tangen: How China Won the Economic War Oct 23, 2025

Show notes

Einar Tangen is a Senior Fellow at Teihe Institute and a Senior Fellow at CIGI. Tangen discusses how China made its supply chains immune to economic coercions and, at the same time, has powerful economic weapons at its own disposal. China's restrictions on rare earth minerals are a powerful instrument, yet the risk of weaponing trade is that other states will diversify away from China.
