Last year saw Trump's administration tell Europe to stop committing suicide

Kurt Zindulka wrote about how the Trump administration's been making an effort to get Europe to stop jumping off the cliff for the sake of Islamofascism:
Neo-liberal politicos have frequently mischaracterised the ‘American First’ foreign policy of President Donald Trump as a return to the isolationism of the 19th century; however, the past year has seen the American administration actively intervene to break the globalist chokehold on Europe and to revive the spirit of the West.

Perhaps no president since Harry S. Truman, who helped rebuild Europe in the wake of two World Wars with the Marshall Plan, has been as involved in shaping the old continent according to his will as President Donald Trump. Building off the success of using the White House bully pulpit during his first term to force NATO allies to finally invest in their defence rather than solely relying on American military might, in the first year of his second term, President Trump has rebalanced the Transatlantic trade relationship, and has put heavy pressure on European allies to reject the dominant ethos of mass migration and political censorship.

Three weeks after taking the oath of office, U.S. Vice President JD Vance was dispatched to the Hotel Bayerischer Hof to represent the Trump administration at the Munich Security Conference, one of the highlights of the globalist conference circuit.

Tensions were high in the German city, with dozens of people being injured the day before the conference after an alleged asylum seeker from Afghanistan ploughed a car into a trade union rally. However, inside the luxury hotel, bigwigs from across Europe and the world waited, filled with anticipation to see the new American government’s stance on the international landscape, particularly on Russia’s war in Ukraine.

Yet the 41-year-old Vice President had other thoughts in mind and, in a landmark speech delivered from the main stage of the conference, proceeded to excoriate the leadership of Europe for their increasingly censorious approach to their own citizens, proclaiming: “In Britain and across Europe, free speech, I fear, is in retreat.”

Much to the chagrin of those in the room who have attempted to cast themselves as the champions of democracy in the face of Russian aggression in Ukraine and Moscow’s alleged election “interference”, Vance noted that the Cold War was fought against the Soviet Union in defence of the very liberties being trampled on today across supposedly democratic Europe.

The Vice President further declared that the greatest threat facing the West is not Vladimir Putin’s Russia or Xi Jinping’s China but rather from “within”, from the forces that seek to censor the public, use lawfare against political opponents, and even cancel elections as occurred in Romania just months prior, following a surprise victory for a Trump-aligned candidate.
While this is important news, it's still unfortunately a long way to repairing the massive damage wrought, especially when Portugal's now seen a socialist elected premier, no thanks to establishment "conservatives" who also backed him, in an act reminiscent of French establishment "conservatives" who backed Emmanuel Macron against Marine Le Pen. So there's still much work to do in order to one day turn around a horrifying situation as it's to be seen now in Europe.
