This week, Walter Russell Mead and Bill Drexel discuss what’s at stake in today’s midterm elections, President Donald Trump’s announcement that American aid to Israel will end this year, North Korea’s record $6 billion crypto heist at Binance, and why, despite the shale revolution and the dreams of every recent president, the United States can’t walk away from the Middle East.
