- John Bolton is no longer Donald Trump’s national security adviser. What does the departure of this hawkish voice in the White House mean for America’s policy toward Iran, North Korea, Venezuela and other nations?
- China continues to score victories in its quest to dominate Asia—this week the Philippines agreed to joint oil and gas exploration in Philippine waters, and the Solomon Islands hinted at denying Taiwanese independence. Also, Argentina signed an agriculture deal with China that will hurt American farmers.

- We also bring you up to speed on the latest in the Brexit brouhaha, the European Commission president’s new geopolitical strategy for Europe, and Pope Francis’s willingness to risk a schism with American Catholics.
