Bill Clinton’s ICE
Okay, some of this is just funny. It’s also sad, because I’ve been trying for decades to keep this from happening to my country and have failed miserably, because everything I saw coming is here, in spades. The pandemic was the worst of it, but it’s now a precedent…
America First Hijacked
Keith Preston explains how pro-Israel networks build leverage across parties, institutions, and continents. In this episode of El Niño Speaks, I sit down with political analyst Keith Preston to unpack how America First’s original non-interventionist and paleoconservative impulse is being absorbed, rebranded, and redirected by neoconservative and pro-Israel power…
The Price of Peace
So. Let’s talk about how the global reserve currency system got another hit this weekend because the American president didn’t get a prize. I’m not making this up.

Christopher Rufo:…
U.S. Economic Warfare Has Strangled Iran and Venezuela
You can’t understand recent events without paying attention to America’s use of crippling sanctions. The U.S. will “keep on blowing boats up,” White House chief of staff Susie Wiles said, “until Maduro cries uncle. And people way smarter than me on that say that he will.” He didn’t. The U.S.
Understanding Iran
At the time of this writing, the Trump Administration appears to have walked back from threatened military strikes on Iran. Despite a significant amount of pressure from the pro-Israel set of American foreign policy, especially the neocons who love war, cooler heads seem to have prevailed – for now.
Reparations Don’t Work
Reparations have become a central and highly emotive issue in American politics. What was once framed as a moral or symbolic demand has now entered the realm of concrete policy. California has moved further than any other state. In December 2025, lawmakers voted to create a…
