Reversed roles: A Smart U.S. president and a dumb Israeli one
History sometimes delivers ironies that shape global politics. The United States, the world’s most powerful country, elected a president described by his own top advisor as “as dumb as shit.” Israel, a far smaller state, is led by a man with an IQ estimated above 140, a survivor of decades in office, and a master…

Can Trump become a dictator?
The United States still looks like the world’s strongest democracy. It has elections, courts, and a constitution that limits power. Yet democracies do not collapse overnight. They erode step by step. Leaders test the system, discover weak points, and go further. Donald Trump has already shown the ambition to push boundaries. He questions elections, attacks…

Trump vs the banks? Or just another power grab?
They say Donald Trump broke from the system. That he disrupted the global financial order, clashed with central banks, and terrified the architects of Western capitalism. But the truth may be far less revolutionary and far more calculated: what if he never opposed the system—only wanted to own it? What appears as rebellion might be…

Can the real boss Peter Thiel control Donald Trump?
Peter Thiel is one of the most powerful men alive (if you want to sue me, read this). He does not seek the spotlight like Donald Trump, yet his influence stretches further. He built PayPal, seeded Facebook, and operates in elite financial and technological circles. Unlike Trump, he does not crave attention. He wields power…

Who is Donald Trump? Political complexities
Donald Trump’s rise to power is a paradox. He was elected despite widespread opposition from major interest groups. Since then, he has sought revenge against those who resisted him, consolidating his power at the country’s expense. His erratic, self-serving behavior has made him a controversial figure in American history. Trump clearly desires to be a…

Elon Musk as the new George Soros for Donald Trump
Only a few people who are well-read didn’t know the relationship of Joe Biden and George Soros, the most powerful multinational lobbyist. But since Biden’s (the most powerful man only in paper) departure from office, can Elon Musk be the new George Soros for Donald Trump? This article outlines the differences between those two lobbyists…

Will the US get back its political culture?
The United States once had a political culture where personal integrity and public trust were paramount. In past decades, even minor scandals could spell the end of a politician’s career, signaling a time when accountability mattered deeply to both the electorate and the political elite. Take, for instance, the case of President Richard Nixon. Though…

Will US and Western democracy survive?
US President Joe Biden said he had done the best for America (while dropping tears), insinuating how tough it is to be a US president. All those big banks, super-rich families, multinational lobbyists more powerful than he is. But we should highlight this: he has said that Trump would be a threat for the US…

Killed CEO makes the rich scared vs 50,000 killed without a notice
Both tabloids and broadsheets paid enormous attention to UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, who was killed in New York City. I get that his social status was huge, but it frightened corporate America, Big Banks, and super-rich families because it could be them someday. The killed CEO does matter, but over 48,000 firearm-related deaths are nothing.…

The Trump Dynasty: Trumps forever
In one of the biggest political comebacks ever, Donald Trump not only went from anti-establishment candidate (he had the support only of one group, the majority didn’t lend him their hidden power) to pro-establishment candidate. He had balanced and went through political chess to gain the support of the majority of hidden groups. But his…
