I’m honored to have received a copy of America First, The World Divided: Trump 2.0 Influence from Mr. Ahmed Fathi, along with his invitation for me to share my thoughts on the book from the perspective of an independent economist.

Ahmed Fathi, an Egyptian-American journalist and UN correspondent, is Managing Editor of American Television News. With expertise in global affairs and multilingual reporting, his insights on diplomacy and international relations are shaped by decades of experience covering major global events.

Ahmed is regularly invited to provide commentary and analysis on various issues relating to Global Affairs and Economy with major news organizations and web castings worldwide such as CNN, FOX News, MSNBC, Newsmax, NY1, CBS, PIX 11, Reuters, Alhurra TV, as well as international TV Channels such as Aljazeera-Qatar, BBC News – UK, CGTN-China, France24, RAI5, Globo TV, NTN24, NHK-Japan, RT- Russia, VOA News, and was featured in a webcast by the US State Dept IIP-CO.NX as well as interviews for several documentaries.#lingyunxiang #ahmedfathi

In 'America First, The World Divided: Trump 2.0 Influence,' Ahmed Fathi articulates how the Trump administration reshaped global dynamics, challenging longstanding alliances and promoting a more fragmented international landscape. This book serves as a crucial resource for understanding the evolving geopolitical climate, examining the rise of powers such as China and Russia in response to disrupted multilateralism. Fathi emphasizes the need for policymakers and global citizens alike to grasp these shifts comprehensively. The narrative offers a balanced viewpoint, neither vilifying nor glorifying Trump's actions, but instead contextualizing them within broader historical trends. It equips readers with the analytical tools necessary to navigate an increasingly complex world, drawing from Fathi's extensive experience as a journalist and UN correspondent. His insights synthesize rich data on how economic policies influence diplomatic relations and vice versa, thereby revealing the interconnectedness of global markets and international policy decisions. This analysis is vital not just for academics and professionals in international relations, but for anyone seeking to engage thoughtfully with foreign policy in today's divided world.

Peace grows where healthy boundaries are honored.

Lately, I’ve realized that protecting my peace isn’t something I say, it’s something I practice. It’s in the boundaries I honor, the conversations I choose to have, the rest I allow myself to take, and the people and places that leave me feeling lighter instead of drained. I’m not perfect at

WHAT IT MEANS TO “FEED” YOUR LINEAGE

If no one is feeding your lineage… you feel it in your life. Not as something obvious— but as heaviness, repetition, a sense of carrying more than you should. Feeding your lineage is not about obligation. It is about relationship. It is attention. It is energy. It is remembrance.

Postpartum is a threshold to be honored

Postpartum was never designed to be “bounce back.” Across cultures, it was treated as a liminal period: — Spiritually open — Physically vulnerable — Psychologically transitional Which is why it came with structure: Rest. Protection. Containment. Support. 40 days shows up again and again
