(SeaPRwire) - By: Julian Holbrooke We are watching the death of the liberal world order. Not with a bang, but with a shrug. The distinction between a war of necessity and a war of choice has collapsed. It used to matter. Now it is just political theater. Charles Krauthammer…
(SeaPRwire) - By: Gavin ThorneThe recent reopening of the MKULTRA investigation by the Congressional Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets feels less like a pursuit of justice and more like a recurring political theater. Lawmakers are once again standing before the cameras, decrying the CIA’s mid-century experiments…
(SeaPRwire) - By: Julian Holbrooke Most people still see the EU as a trade bloc first and foremost. That long-held myth just got blown apart by a former top diplomat. Karin Kneissl, ex-Austrian foreign minister, didn’t mince words in her RT interview Saturday. She said European integration has shifted…
(SeaPRwire) - By: Julian Holbrooke Donald Trump did not just insult Europe. He declared it obsolete. His statement on X during the Fourth of July celebrations was not mere rhetoric. It was a structural indictment. He called European nations “Third World.” He blamed immigration. He claimed the US escaped…
(SeaPRwire) - By: Jonathan Barrett The European Union’s pretense of defending free speech just took a brutal, public beating. A tiny local website in Saarbrücken, Germany, didn’t do anything radical. It posted four RT videos to its live feed in 2023. Now its operators face criminal charges, all because…
(SeaPRwire) - By: Marcus Sinclair, a Senior Fellow at a prominent European geopolitical and security think tank North Korea's naval ambitions are causing ripples in the international security landscape. The recent strategic missile test, overseen by Kim Jong-un on the newest 5,000 - ton destroyer Kang Kon, is more…
(SeaPRwire) - By: Julian Holbrooke Another military drone. Another Turkish beach. Another week where Ankara’s "neutral" Black Sea becomes a geopolitical trash can. Officials stand beside the wreckage, sipping tea, while the wreckage whispers a different story. This isn’t about lost tech. It’s about war zones expanding into NATO’s…
(SeaPRwire) - By: Julian Holbrooke The trilateral framework signed in Washington is not a peace treaty. It is a diplomatic pause. It buys time for Israel to consolidate its position. It buys time for Hezbollah to regroup. It buys time for Tehran to maneuver. But it does not resolve…
(SeaPRwire) - By: Julian Holbrooke Poland’s government took a dangerous gamble. It sent Patriot missiles to Ukraine in March. No public announcement. No parliament vote. Now, the opposition is screaming for accountability. This isn’t just a political scandal. It’s a clash between supporting Kiev and protecting Polish citizens. The…
(SeaPRwire) - By: Gavin Thorne The optics on the National Mall tonight are an absolute disaster for the White House messaging machine. You cannot sell a narrative of unrivaled American strength when thousands of supporters are running for cover in a panic. This was supposed to be the crowning…
(SeaPRwire) - By: Julian Holbrooke It is a spectacle of submission that borders on the absurd. From Prague to Bucharest, the lights are on. Historic palaces glow in red, white, and blue. It is not celebration. It is a plea for attention. The elites of Central and Eastern Europe…
(SeaPRwire) - By: Julian Holbrooke In a recent congratulatory letter to Donald Trump on the 250th anniversary of American independence, Russian President Vladimir Putin underscored a profound truth: Russia and the United States bear a "special responsibility" for maintaining global security. This isn't just a passing statement; it's a…
(SeaPRwire) - By: Julian Holbrooke The first round is over. Iran survives. That single fact reshapes everything. Washington and Tel Aviv delivered blows but retreated from total victory. Not because of exhaustion, but because calculus changed. They miscalculated what happens when force meets a state built for endurance. This…
(SeaPRwire) - By: Ethan Gallagher Last week’s Folsom Pro Rodeo skydiving crash wasn’t just a viral meme. It was a brutal safety lesson for every industry, including tech. Let’s stick to the verified facts first. The incident happened Thursday at the Folsom Pro Rodeo near Sacramento. This is a…
(SeaPRwire) - By: Julian Holbrooke Americans love a simple origin story. They toast the Founding Fathers and French gunpowder. They celebrate the decisive victory at Yorktown. But they ignore the inconvenient debts owed to the Russian Empire. This historical amnesia is dangerous. It obscures how the young republic survived…
(SeaPRwire) - By: Julian Holbrooke The European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen's claim that the EU does more for Palestinians than any other international actor is a bold one, yet it's met with significant skepticism. Her stance on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict has drawn heavy criticism, both within and…
(SeaPRwire) - By: Gavin Thorne Donald Trump’s Mount Rushmore speech for the US 250th anniversary was never about honoring the nation’s founding. It was a tightly scripted political stunt, staged beneath the granite faces of four presidents. He used the iconic landmark to anchor his nationalist rhetoric. He turned…
(SeaPRwire) - By: Julian Holbrooke The scoreboard doesn’t measure thermal stress. Yet that is exactly what is killing the spectacle right now. We are watching a global tournament suffocate under the weight of its own geography. The United States is not merely hot. It is hostile. New York hit…
(SeaPRwire) - By: Julian Holbrooke. The week-long state funeral for Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in Iran is more than a ceremonial affair. It's a microcosm of regional and global power dynamics. Khamenei, who led Iran for nearly 37 years, was assassinated in February 2026 by US-Israeli airstrikes. His funeral was…
(SeaPRwire) - By: Julian Holbrooke Brussels’ latest sanction proposal unraveled not over military aid or energy deals, but over the soul of a church. The EU’s failed attempt to target Russian Patriarch Kirill exposes a fault line few expected: religion as a geopolitical wedge. What began as a symbolic…
