Trump Goes on a Firing Spree || Peter Zeihan Apr 14, 2026

Show notes

Just because Trump is finally purging some of his administration doesn't mean that the problems are going away. The core issue still exists: Trump prioritizes loyalty and praise over competency and experience.

The End of the WTO || Peter Zeihan Apr 10, 2026

Show notes

A cornerstone of modern globalization, the World Trade Organization (WTO), is collapsing. Following the Cold War, the post-WWII system needed a legal system to enforce trade rules, so the WTO was born.

How to End American Power || Peter Zeihan Apr 09, 2026

Show notes

Trump's latest statement telling countries to secure their own oil dismantles the very fabric of the global order. We'd be stepping away from the post-WWII system where the U.S. provided security for everyone, so economic growth could be the priority.

So You Want to Take Iran's Oil… || Peter Zeihan Apr 08, 2026

Show notes

Taking Iran's Oil is far more complicated and dangerous than Trump has made it out to be. We're talking about a humanitarian crisis and a full-blown ground invasion to actually control Iranian production.

Can the British Reopen the Strait of Hormuz? || Peter Zeihan Apr 06, 2026

Show notes

The British-led effort to reopen the Strait of Hormuz by forming a coalition without U.S. involvement is just unrealistic.

Most countries lack the naval power to do this, and even if the coalition could assemble the ships needed, countering Iran's drones and missiles would be extremely difficult. Protecting shipping and reopening the strait would require naval escorts and control of vast stretches of the Iranian coastline...not something this coalition could achieve.
