In comments, @dl2jml provides another, differing analysis that is also interesting:

I have a somewhat higher number of doubts about this one, for a couple of reasons, but it's certainly plausible, and definitely interesting.

I could get into what I see as its flaws but I really need to get into Costco today, so I'm gonna do that instead. Maybe later. ^_^

I saw an interesting analysis on how fucked US-Saudi relations are now and why, but it's on a Meta platform. [EDIT: Originally sourced elsewhere, turns out. Not that Substack is any great shakes either, but it's better than Meta]

On the plus side, it's great news for Ukraine, and yet more incredibly bad news for Putin's Russia. Suck it, Putin.

BREAKING: TRUMP JUST LOST SAUDI ARABIA

Trump told the man who controls 12% of the world’s oil to kiss his ass. That man just restructured Middle Eastern security with Ukraine, telling Trump, "It's over".
