Has any movement collapsed more completely than MAGA? In this episode of Colonial Outcasts, we examine Trump’s stunning reversal on every key populist promise: escalation in Ukraine, saber-rattling toward Iran, backing Israel-first policy, and promoting a ballooning Pentagon budget. With bipartisan support for more war and sanctions, Trump now openly threatens Russia with ultimatums and long-range strikes—an aggressive pivot cheered on by neocons like Lindsey Graham and think tanks like the Atlantic Council.
We break down the fantasy of secondary sanctions, the economic impossibility of isolating Russia, and how Trump’s foreign policy is now indistinguishable from the unipolar imperial doctrine of his predecessors. From NATO expansion to the looming confrontation in Lebanon, we connect the dots between the collapsing facade of MAGA and the emerging Axis of Upheaval—a global order driven by elite panic and escalating militarism.
We also take a critical look at the Atlantic Council and Chatham House as mouthpieces for the military-intelligence elite shaping this next phase of global conflict.
