Here's why Trump's suggestion that Iran could join the Abraham Accords reflects a foreign policy of real physical economics — and why the CFR's new "Future of American Strategy" project is a tacit admission that the British-led liberal international order is finished.
Trump got Xi's "secret garden" tour, Bessent cornered the City of London, and the Senate revolted in his favor. Across this week's shows, one frame keeps surfacing: the American System is back, and the empire is out of moves.
As globalization collapses, America faces a deeper crisis of culture, identity, and purpose. Mike explores Poe’s “Descent into the Maelstrom,” the rebuilding of American industry, the conflict with Iran, and the spiritual foundations needed to revive the nation.
Saturday Class - Classical Music and Trump's Artemis II Mission - April 4, 2026
This Easter, Toni Sellars and Mindy Pechenuk connect classical music, the creative soul, and America's Artemis II Moon mission — from Schubert and Mozart to Trump's message on the resurrection.
On this Easter Sunday, a class on the music that celebrates the resurrection of the soul — and the mission to the Moon that proves it.
What does classical music have to do with going to the Moon? Everything.
As Christians around the world celebrate Easter and the Jewish community observes Passover, this week’s Saturday Class takes up the profound connection between classical music, the creative human soul, and America’s bold return to space. Toni Sellars and Mindy Pechenuk deliver a class that will change how you hear music — and how you understand what makes a civilization great.
Toni opens with the science of the human voice — the only living instrument — and demonstrates why register shifts are essential to conveying real ideas through song. She walks through Schubert’s haunting Death and the Maiden, showing how the composer used the natural registers of the voice to communicate a profound concept of immortality: that a life lived for the future, not for oneself, is a life that conquers death.
The class opens with the breathtaking footage of NASA’s Artemis II crew — now on their way around the Moon — and astronaut Victor Glover’s message to humanity:
“Don’t put our differences aside. Bring our differences together and use all the strengths to accomplish something great.”
That’s not just a slogan. It’s the principle behind both great space missions and great classical composition.
Mindy Pechenuk then takes us on a journey through Mozart’s life and genius, from his passionate support for the American Revolution to his collaboration with Joseph II to liberate the Jews of Austria. She reveals her own discovery — guided by Lyndon LaRouche — of how Mozart’s Ave Verum Corpus uses the Lydian interval to create a musical experience of agape that no chord-based analysis can explain.
And she connects it directly to President Trump’s Easter message:
“Death is swallowed up in victory.”
This isn't just about music theory. It’s about why classical culture is the weapon that defeats empire — and why the same forces that hollowed out our culture tried to ban the Lydian interval from music schools.
As President Trump said in his message honoring Pope Saint John Paul II: our nation is “yearning for God, not in response to a tyrannical government, but to a culture that has been hollowed out for far too long.”
This Easter, let the music answer that yearning.
Watch the class and discover what the enemies of human creativity don’t want you to hear.
