What I told people I was making a podcast about Benghazi, nine times out of ten, they called me a masochist, rolled their eyes, or just asked, why?
Benghazi, the truth became a web of lies.
From Prologue Projects and Pushkin Industries, this is Fiasco, Benghazi.
What difference at this point does it make?

All right, so let's start North Korea.
We don't have a lot of time, but what's the best option?
Because I don't see a lot of good options here.
Well, there actually are.
There's more sanctions that can be imposed on those people who do business with North Korea.
Over the course of the last month, there have been several times when we've observed through satellite and other surveillance means ships transferring oil, for example, into a country where in the north, north of Pyongyang, the temperature is now minus five degrees.
It's going to get colder before it gets warmer.
They need the oil.
And the fact is, you could impose more sanctions on the Chinese who are allowing some of this stuff to happen and anybody else who trades not just oil, but other things that are important to their economy.
The idea that the United States is powerless is nuts.
Now, we've got the means to literally decapitate the regime without using a single nuclear weapon.
We ought to encourage the conversation that's going on between Pyongyang and Seoul about the Olympics.
We ought to make sure that everybody understands we're deadly serious.
The president needs to say every time he opens his mouth about this thing is that there's an existential threat to civilians in America with a North Korean, Iranian-supported North Korean nuclear weapon and ICBM program.
And it is the Iranians that have made this possible for me.
They could not have done it without it.
But we've got lots more sanctions that can be imposed.
And what you do is you say unilaterally, you don't have to get the Europeans and everybody else in Asia.
If you do any business with the regime of North Korea, either named individuals or companies or the entire country, you cannot do any business in the United States.
The banking system is going to look at this and say, wait a second, we can't afford to lose American business.
We're going to stop doing business in North Korea.
We've not even flexed our muscles yet on this, despite what the State Department says, there's a lot more latitude.
