It was an honor to speak with Jennifer Kavanagh of Defense Priorities, who recently ignited a firestorm in Washington, DC by suggesting a radical change to our policy in Asia. We cover China policy, what it should be, and how vested interests keep it from changing.

Enthusiastically pro-war Tom Cotton is my least favorite Senator. He’s up for reelection in Arkansas this fall. He’s expected to win, but I don’t think he should. Here’s why…

The Rise of Japan was an epic story, but the Japanese military’s victories sowed the seeds of its destruction. In today’s episode we revisit Japan’s wars around the turn of the 20th century, and the way that winning wasn’t really winning.

In this week’s episode, Policy Tensor joins us to talk about great power systems, and whether or not Iran qualifies as a great power. The associated substack highlights a neglected part of China-US news. Not good news.

I really enjoyed this conversation with J.J. I think we transition quite naturally from New York City politics, to national politics to international politics, and draw some useful connections along the way. I hope you enjoy it!

China is the biggest winner from the Iran war. But the US Deep State is a close second. You didn’t think I’d make it through a whole Iran war without making an MIC video did you?

The Iran war needs to stop as soon as possible. To make that vital case I’ve had a couple big publishing days here at the More Freedom Foundation. Yesterday we had a conversation with PF Jung on his channel. This morning we published our weekly podcast on Trump’s epic failure in Iran. Tonight we published our video explaining why China is the biggest winner in this war. And also a substack on the fact that the Persian Gulf will never be the same.

We don’t hear much about Taiwan semiconductors anymore. This often happens in national security circles. The point is to make you scared, not to make any meaningful changes to the strategic vulnerability that is claimed to have been identified. Solving this problem would be counter-productive. It’s declining importance means I’ll probably never do a produced video talking about Taiwan chips, so I thought it made sense to throw together an unproduced version. I hope you find it useful.

I can’t believe we’re here again. Most believe the United States is within hours of launching our own attack on Iran, if we haven’t already. It’s a catastrophic return to the evils of the Bush administration. It’s pretty clear we’ve learned nothing. Today’s video is an attempt to help people learn something. Though on a day like today, it’s hard to see why I bother.

Wow, I guess I’ve been doing this a little while. Ten years ago this month, this channel had an early success with a video entitled “3 Reasons China Will Never Rule The World”. A lot has happened over the past ten years. In a discord chat earlier this month, MFF’s social media manager Loga suggested I update that decade old video. Today’s video is my attempt to do exactly that. Am I still as skeptical of claims of Chinese power in the age of Trump? Check out today’s video to find out.
