Saudi Arabia Is Absurd (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Monarchy is dumb. It’s an outmoded, inefficient and dangerous way to organize a country. It has survived in a number of places for historical and constitutional reasons. If it’s carefully managed, and doesn’t do much, I don’t like it, but I suppose you can argue that constitutional monarchy is harmless or even benign.Absolute monarchy is an absurdity. It’s offensive to any sensible conception of modernity, and the spirit of the Enlightenment and the US Constitution most of all. It lends itself t
The US Is Easy To Fix... (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It’s… not a happy time in the United States. There are very few left who pretend that the current leadership has any idea what it’s doing. Trump is obviously a massive problem.

In 2015 the Saudis and the UAE invaded to keep the Houthis from winning a civil war in Yemen. The Gulf coalition was able to quickly push the Houthis away from Aden,

Read excerpt
In January of 2026, Donald Trump pulled off exactly what Vladimir Putin wanted to do in February of 2022. When Russia invaded Ukraine almost five years ago, Putin envisioned a quick decapitation strike, and installing some sort of puppet regime in Kyiv. A victorious Russia would have quickly set up direct control of the Ukrainian assets it wanted. When Trump took Venezuela in January it wasn’t territorial annexation he was interested in, but oil assets. Venezuela’s oil assets are arguably even m
