How U.S. Wins Economically By Losing Iran & Ukraine Wars! – w/ Richard Medhurst

Jimmy interviews journalist Richard Medhurst, who explains the U.S. "pirate strategy" of transitioning from land bases to naval blockades to control global energy supplies, noting that the U.S. is now the world's top oil and LNG exporter and actually profits from high prices even as Americans pay more at the pump.

Medhurst reveals that the U.S. has quietly taken out 40% of Russia's oil export capacity and threatened China's supply while keeping Europe de-industrialized and subservient. He calls the Gulf monarchies "spineless" for betting on the wrong horse, noting they were created by the UK and have no strategic sense. Medhurst concludes that as long as America fights wars on other people's turf, it "implicitly wins" because the military-industrial complex is never threatened, and that Iran must neutralize U.S. naval power to truly end the threat.
