Political Strategy is your guide to the strategy, the spin, and the subterfuge of politics.

Politics is dirty and the press is a tool. There are too many sources and everyone has their own agenda. You can never take the news for granted. Whatever the headlines, the real story is buried deep below.

My name is Roger Berkeley, and I am your guide to the strategy, the spin, and the subterfuge of politics. I come to you from Washington DC, where puppet masters make decisions that affect your life, no matter where in the world you live. I help mission-driven organizations develop their political and communications strategies. Internationally, I have worked on referendum and election campaigns at the European Parliament, Westminster, and at all levels in Irish politics. I’ve consulted for brands throughout Europe, Asia, Africa, and the United States. Join me every week as I break down the stories that dominate the global headlines.

It’s 2025. Donald Trump is back in the White House undoing everything that changed since his last term. Will Congress codify all of DOGE’s reforms? Will the Democrats ever win an election again?

Europe is ablaze with the culture wars. What do the bans on LePen, Georgescu, and the AfD mean for democracy? Will Nigel Farage be the next British Prime Minister?

Major hot wars rage in Ukraine and the Middle East. Will World War III break out? What can the new Pope do to wage peace in a fractured world?

As social media takes over our lives and identity politics dictates our daily habits, the truth gets left on the cutting room floor. Now you have to figure out what is really going on in the halls of power.
