概要

It is Monday, February 2, 2026, and the dashboard of American democracy is flashing red. On today’s deep dive, we connect the dots between domestic paralysis in Washington and aggressive brinkmanship abroad.

  • The "Security Tier" Shutdown: The U.S. government enters a partial shutdown affecting the Pentagon and State Department, just as federal "Reduction in Force" (RIF) protections expire, threatening mass layoffs for civil servants.
  • The Middle East on Edge: With Hezbollah weakened, Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei threatens a "Regional War" and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz if the U.S. strikes Iran.
  • Venezuelan Endgame: In a shock move comparable to Panama in 1989, U.S. forces have physically captured Nicolas Maduro while the Navy enforces a blockade on oil tankers off the coast.

Join us as we ask the critical question: Can the United States effectively project power in two hemispheres while the lights are legally required to be turned off at the State Department?
