The MOU Moving Forward
On 2 July 2026, I was on Rachel Blevins’s popular podcast. We talked about Russian progress on the battlefields of Ukraine, where that war is going to be settled and where the Russian are in the driver’s seat. Very importantly, Rachel and I had a detailed discussion of the 17 June 2026 Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between Iran and the US. It is obviously a document with a good number of moving parts and how they are all likely to fit together in the negotiations ahead is a bit of a puzzle. But I thought we did a very good job of making sense of that important document.

John, Everything I’ve heard you say has been exactly spot on, but diagnosing the terminal illness is no longer enough. If we continue on this trajectory, humanity will not survive the existential threats racing toward us.
Steering a system as massive as our global civilization in a better direction requires engaging directly with the political process—but we cannot do that without a completely new blueprint for global alignment and governance. I’ve spent years developing a structured framework to address this, and I've laid out the entire thesis in two concise, hard-hitting short films.
