Yes, we need trade. No we don't need to play dirty tricks.
No, we don't need oil. We have plenty. Securing energy concessions for our friends, by hook or by crook or by force of arms in foreign countries is not how we should do business.
We would dominate the world, in any event, just by being true to our principles at home and abroad. When we cling to that dominance with all the old tools and evils of empire, that's when we risk losing our enviable position as the freest and the most prosperous, BECAUSE of that freedom.
The more the government does to make things "better," the more insecure we become. But that fact never stands in the way of powerful people who want to MAKE the world dance to their tune, rather than doing the hardest thing of all: LET things happen. No government wants to do that, because it reduces the power and status of individuals in government, most of who are there for the power. That's why government's power needs to be curtailed. That's why its scope and role must be limited to the absolute minimum.
Mike Benz knows a lot of the details, but he doesn't want to grasp that the world would be a pretty good place with less government intervention.
There are no all-seeing, all-good, and all-wise people we can put in charge of these institutions and expect things will go swimmingly. People who believe that are stuck on the wheel and will always be stuck on the wheel. They'll create positions of power that will always come back to cause problems, down the road.
Maybe you do get a genius-saint in one of those high spots. What about the next person in that position? Eventually, the political "climbers" will obtain those posts, and weaponize/subvert/guide the institution for their personal benefit.

It's not a news vacuum, and usually, nobody has to out-and-out lie. It's a forest-for-the-trees situation, where each side can show something blowing up. It's all skirmish-level stuff of no real strategic significance. Too much information about too little is what's going on.
But there are some decent channels, like History Legends and The Duran, and others.
It's the same with any issue, not just the war in Ukraine. The world is such a big place, you can find an example of just about whatever you want, and it's easy to give the impression that that example is representative of what's going on, everywhere. Want to see white people acting like Karens? There's a channel for that. Want to see black people robbing a store? There's a channel for that. It doesn't matter that they're a tiny minority. In a country of 330 million people, you can watch videos of people doing stupid stuff of a particular type, 24 hours a day, and it's easy to fall into thinking these nutcases are everywhere, when 99.9% of the people you meet are nice, and they appreciate that you are nice.

It's because you ARE a liberal, Tucker, but the true meaning of the word has been twisted to mean "Going back to the good old days when the government (King, Lords, and Ladies) took care of the serfs." Today, "liberal" actually means a regressive view of the relationship between the state and the people. True liberals want the people to be big and the government to be small. These so-called "liberals" of today want government to be your mommy and daddy.
And when you're being cared for by mommy and daddy, what's the first rule? OBEY. That's not liberty and limited government. That's adjacent to Divine Right of Kings, which the Liberal Project, starting with the Enlightenment (or farther back, with Magna Carta), categorically rejects.
So, what passes for "liberal" these days is really anything but liberal. The true liberals are the libertarians and the relatively small segment of the Republican Party who actually believe in liberal principles that are now trashed by media, government, and education as "right wing."

The fact that Mike Johnson was elected by Republicans as Speaker of the House proves that Republicans, as currently constituted, are not any kind of solution to the malaise of big government run amok.
Isn't Dan Pompeo still in Trump's orbit? Black-pill potential, right there.

We have a right to transparency on:
JFK, 9/11, 1/6, COVID-19, royalties paid to federal officials by private companies, ...
When we're denied these things, we have no option but to conclude that the government is full of crooks. No transparency? No trust.

Big fan of writing to learn. That's why I'm so annoying in the comments. Well, that, and the fact that I can write about as fast as most people can talk.
Getting the words out in the first place is key to seeing if they hold up, first to me, and then to others, and there are always lots of good critics (and trolls!) in the comments. Let it all hang out, have a thick skin, and always be ready to change your mind, and especially be open to new fact sources.
YouTube tries to keep a lid on our sharing info links. But every once in awhile, a name or a channel slip through.
