As Meiselas approaches the close of the episode, he paints an alarming picture of geopolitical convergence. Ukrainian forces have struck Iranian ships in the Caspian Sea. Iran's Shahed drones are being used against Ukraine. The Houthis have hit Saudi Aramco facilities in retaliation for attacks on Hudaydah. The regional war in the Middle East, he argues, is no longer regional — it is fusing with Russia's invasion of Ukraine into something that looks like a world war. Saudi Arabia, once a US ally, is now refusing to allow American forces to use its bases after feeling cheated by Trump's deals. Against this backdrop, Fox News's closing contribution to the debate is Stephen Miller appearing to declare that no American president in living memory has done more for Middle East peace than Donald Trump, citing the Abraham Accords. Meiselas closes the episode in disbelief, urging listeners to subscribe and pre-order his book WTF America.
