Show notes
We break down Ukraine’s deep strike campaign inside Russia, the fight over Crimea, and whether Moscow’s war machine is starting to crack under pressure. We also get into the NATO summit, Trump’s unpredictable foreign policy process, Iran’s reconstitution after the ceasefire, and the growing split between the U.S. and Europe.Support the show on Patreon:⬇️https://www.patreon.com/TheTeamHouseMarc's new article:https://engelsbergideas.com/author/sam-worby-marc-polymeropoulos/Subscribe to our newsletter!!!!https://teamhousepodcast.kit.com/joinJack's news outlet:⬇️https://thehighside.substack.com/Find Jon Hackett here:⬇️Jon's Twitter:https://x.com/jonathanhackettJon's LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/thejonathanhackettJon's books:https://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B0C5L659N5?ccs_id=e11a2062-f8d3-498e-bfd7-7d2f3869caf6Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thejonathanhackettTwitter: https://x.com/jonathanhackettCheck out Mick's new podcast here:⬇️Apple Podcasts:https://podcasts.apple.com/at/podcast/pub-and-porch-applied-stoicism/id1836955475Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/1k3QPmkAMwnGJxMLDwUSSd?si=n6piIu8XRcag1Z0K43A3bQYoutube:https://www.youtube.com/@UCd0Hq6QFk8CoTu5j-VU0Ong Find Mick Mulroy here: Fogbow ⬇️https://fogbow.com/Lobo Institute ⬇️https://www.loboinstitute.org/Twitter ⬇️https://x.com/mickmulroy?s=21&t=-Ze3F_Ix2vlJ18KFvORTCALinkedIn ⬇️https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-patrick-mulroy-31198b52/Bluesky ⬇️https://bsky.app/profile/mickmulroy.bsky.socialMick’s publications ⬇️https://www.loboinstitute.org/publications/publications-of-michael-mick-patrick-mulroy/Whitefish security summit ⬇️https://whitefishsecuritysummit.comFind Marc P here:https://x.com/MpolymerFind Andy Milburn here: Twitter ⬇️https://twitter.com/i/flow/login?redirect_after_login=%2Fandymilburn8LinkedIn ⬇️https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrewmilburn2023Substack ⬇️https://amilburn.substack.com/Andy’s book ⬇️https://www.amazon.com/When-Tempest-Gathers-Mogadishu-OperationsBluesky ⬇️https://bsky.app/profile/andy-milburn.bsky.socialFind Jason Lyons here: LinkedIn ⬇️https://www.linkedin.com/in/jason-lyons-666873316?uBluesky ⬇️https://bsky.app/profile/bgsilverback73.bsky.social"Karl Casey @ White Bat Audio00:00 — Start01:22 — Ukraine’s Deep Strikes Inside Russia04:28 — MAGA’s Shift on Ukraine and Israel05:13 — Russia’s Fuel Supply Gets Hit08:38 — Russia’s Grinding War in Donbas11:51 — The Kerch Bridge and Crimea’s Symbolic Value15:09 — Ukraine Is Isolating Crimea17:22 — The Next Major Russian Energy Target19:18 — Trump’s Calls With Putin and Zelensky20:26 — Russia’s Political Theory of Victory21:54 — U.S. Policy Confusion Before the NATO Summit24:22 — Turkey, the F-35, and the S-400 Problem26:12 — Europe Braces for U.S. Troop and Asset Cuts28:17 — European Allies Reading Truth Social for Policy30:49 — NATO, Ukraine Aid, and the Iran War Fallout31:43 — U.S. Bases, Europe, and Access for War34:44 — Iran Exposes the U.S.-Europe Split37:53 — Access, Basing, and Overflight Problems40:21 — Iraq, Iran, and Selling a War46:40 — Intelligence Failures and Political Bias50:47 — What to Expect From the NATO Summit54:38 — Iran Rebuilds While Negotiations Drag On57:09 — Why Sanctions Relief Helps Iran Reconstitute58:54 — NATO’s Goals: Defense Spending, Ukraine, and Turkey01:01:44 — Trump’s Unpredictable Foreign Policy Process01:03:07 — The Broken NSC Process01:07:14 — Closing Plugs and Final ThoughtsBecome a supporter of this podcast:
