Trump's Blueprint for a New American Era

How the 47th US President's 2025 National Security Strategy Aims to Restore American Power, Sovereignty, and Global Influence

Notwithstanding the spin by America's "mainstream media" on the United States National Security 2025 document released by the Trump administration, the US NSS 2025 is a compendium worth reading.

If at all there is something called a "top-down revolution", the reversal of time and entrenched policies that created certain paradigms, then the contents of the US NSS 2025 correspond to that.

So, what is the US NSS 2025? What makes it different (or quasi-revolutionary)? What is its content, in the main?

The US NSS 2025 is a compendium of policy notes, reversals, and a review of post-Cold War paradigms that determined and defined United States foreign and domestic policy. Going by the appellation of "globalism," post-Cold War US foreign policy, according to the US NSS 2025, led to an unfocused and diffuse foreign policy, detached from means and ends.

In other words, globalist premises crafted policy paradigms that dissipated American national interests, leading to "forever burdens" on the country.

In the main, this is what the US NSS 2025 seeks to reverse, creating a fresh and new crucible that puts America First.

This, naturally, calls for "paradigm-shattering" philosophies and, as a corollary, policies that lead to American national renewal.

By clear policy preferences, by implication, and by inference, the document calls for other states to adjust. How, then, does the document read, and what are its contents?

The US NSS 2025 reads as a fine and crisp document. It begins with an introductory note by the 47th President of the United States, Donald Trump. The US President flags alarms and achievements of his administration since he assumed office in 2024. Calling the document a roadmap, President Trump makes a call for American freedom, security, and greatness.
