Geopolitics with Ghost Bonus Episode: 7/23/26 - Trump Meets Aoun, Netanyahu Standoff

A special bonus episode, and a personal one. Ghost opens with some real life news of his own (nothing dramatic, just change on the horizon) before diving into Trump's Oval Office meeting with Lebanese President Joseph Aoun. They cover the new US Lebanon framework aimed at ending hostilities with Israel, why Ghost thinks the real standoff is between Trump and Netanyahu rather than Lebanon and Hezbollah, and why disarming Hezbollah remains, in Ghost's words, a pipe dream. From there it is a grab bag of asides straight from the press conference, covering the Abraham Accords, a brewing Saudi nuclear deal with an American vendor, a pointed exchange about Iran and Hormuz, and Trump's testy back and forth with a reporter over China. Ghost also breaks down a fiery attack on a federal building in Manhattan. A little bit of everything, wrapped up quickly before he heads out of town.
