The Editor’s Pick is the shortlist: the articles our editor considers essential reading on foreign policy and geopolitics. The selection cuts across every region and every subject on the site, from the Strait of Hormuz and the China threat to the globalist agenda in Europe and the conservative wave in Latin America, and brings together the pieces that best explain what is happening and why it matters. New readers will find here the clearest statements of the America First perspective; regular readers will find the analyses worth returning to. Each article earns its place for a single reason: it helps you understand how the world really works and where the United States stands in it.
Ukraine's war has rewritten the rules of modern combat. Engineers, drone makers, and software coders now decide battles as much as soldiers do. The U.S. shipped a third of its Javelins and a quarter of its Stingers to Ukraine, and still faces a depleted arsenal after Iran. The side that innovates fastest may win the next war.
Canada Bill C-9, the Combatting Hate Act, passed the Senate 45 to 13 on June 4, 2026. It removes the "good faith" religious defence that protected Bible-based teaching since the 1970s. Pastors have already been jailed. One final vote stands between this law and Royal Assent.

It is the next great-power battleground.
China factory output flatlined in May 2026 as the Iran war energy shock squeezes manufacturers. Germany contracted 2.8%. Meanwhile the U.S. industrial rebound posted its biggest gain in over a year.

North Korea Christians face execution, torture, and life in brutal labor camps just for owning a Bible. Open Doors ranks North Korea #1 most dangerous country for Christians, as it has every year since 2002 except 2022. Between 50,000 and 70,000 believers are imprisoned right now. This is End Times prophecy unfolding in real time.
Brazil rare earths hold 23% of global reserves, second only to China. Lula told Trump: all investment welcome, but processing stays on Brazilian soil.

ECB President Lagarde just admitted Europe is losing the dollar digital dominance war. Tether and Circle control 90% of a $310,000 million stablecoin market — 98% pegged to the U.S. dollar.
