President Donald Trump is at war with Americans—not just Democrats, but also his own supporters. This should be taken into consideration as the Midterms approach. Recently, he threatened to deploy the military to Baltimore, Maryland, to address crime, escalating his controversial use of National Guard deployments across the country. Moreover, he blackmailed the state by threatening to withhold federal funding for the replacement of the Francis Scott Key Bridge, a project that had already been approved for federal funding. This project is meant to benefit the people, including his own supporters. This situation demonstrates one thing: President Trump does not care about anyone—whether they are blue or red. He is solely focused on establishing a military junta by politicizing the National Guard for his ideological purposes, aiming to create an authoritarian regime in the U.S. He will ultimately fail and face consequences.

As Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is visiting China for the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit, the narrative surrounding his trip is often misconstrued, both by Trump supporters and critics.

The Lowy Institute's "Interpreter" insists, however, that the reality is more complex, with a long-standing Indian strategy of diversification at play; I agree, to a certain degree. Yet, what the Institute fails to see is that although India's former approach of "non-alignment" has indeed shifted to "multi-alignment," this shift was largely catalyzed by Trump's tariffs.
