In this episode, we analyze the seismic shift in global diplomacy as the United States withdraws from 66 international organizations, signaling an end to the post-war multilateral order. We examine the total internet blackout in Iran as nationwide protests over economic collapse turn into a direct challenge to the regime. Our deep dives focus on the strategic implications of the U.S. retreat and the media framing of the Iranian uprising. Regional coverage includes the 'shoot first' orders in Greenland, hypersonic strikes in Ukraine, and the rare birth of twin mountain gorillas in the Congo.
