Invitation: The Count of Monte Cristo: Alexandre Dumas Describes Modern AmericaSunday June 21 at 2pm ET
An innocent man falsely accused of treason and thrown into solitary confinement by the Deep State for 14 years with no idea of his crime. A society where the highest officials of the state murder babies with impunity. An economy of untold riches where information and news are ceaselessly manipulated for robbery and fraud. A world where mysterious figures flaunt unimaginable wealth and power and own their own islands where they enjoy their sex slaves as they please while indulging in their hashish drugged dreams at will. A world of law and regulations where justice is a joke and only a crazed vigilante bent on vengeance can carry out true retribution. How did Alexandre Dumas 180 years ago understand 21st century America and Western Europe so well?

Invitation: The Count of Monte Cristo: Alexandre Dumas Describes Modern America

Episode 41 - MOU Money, MOU Problems
Episode 41 - MOU Money, MOU ProblemsOur thoughts on the US-Iran 'deal', the lapsing of FISA, and the World Cup.
The Rational Policy Podcast is back! After a weeklong hiatus, we return with Episode 41, in which hosts Mike Coté and Art Vandelay dive into the latest developments in news and politics over the past fortnight. Unsurprisingly, we spend the lion’s share of the podcast discussing the war (or conspicuous lack thereof) in Iran, breaking down the just-signed Memorandum of Understanding between Tehran and Washington. We talk about the ridiculously bad terms of that ‘deal’, how it gives away the store to the Iranians, and why the president suddenly got cold feet when he was on the precipice of victory. We also touch on why this agreement is worthless, how it will inevitably fall apart, and what might happen afterward. This isn’t the end of the war, but it might be end of Donald Trump’s ability to credibly threaten the use of force to achieve American national aims - and that is a very dangerous thing. Another dangerous thing is our second topic, the lapsing of FISA intelligence collection authority after Democrats held the renewal up to protest Trump’s terrible nomination of Bill Pulte as Director of National Intelligence. The rationale may have been sound, but the consequences could be massive; let’s hope we never see them. We finish off with a discussion of the World Cup currently ongoing here in the good old US of A. We talk about the tournament itself, the way it has helped demolish the preconceived notions that foreigners have about America, and how it showcases the best of our great nation. Check it out, follow us on Twitter/X (Mike / Art), and share the podcast with anyone you think might appreciate it. Thanks for listening. We’ll be back next week. Until then, enjoy the World Cup. Go USA! Rational Policy is free today. But if you enjoyed this post, you can tell Rational Policy that their writing is valuable by pledging a future subscription.
