"For an administration that is building its defining legacy around upsetting the world order for the short-term opportunity to enrich an inner circle of family, cronies, and hangers-on—what WIRED called last summer the 'the enshittification of American power'—Venezuela’s oil and Greenland’s rare earths look more the same than different."

"The through line between January 6th and Venezuela is an American government that believes that it is taking back what belongs to them, what belongs to white America. And that is taking back America or taking back their backyard in the West. But it's all about that. It's about taking back and bringing us back to that old world order."
