Will this ruling hold? And where will it go from here?</li><li>“Houthis to Sea, so Rudely, a Wop Bop a Loo Bop a Wop Bam Boom.” Attacks by Yemen-based (and Iran-backed) Houthi rebels have led major shippers to avoid the Red Sea, dealing a serious blow to global commerce. But the United States and a coalition of allies has announced a new maritime effort—the (perhaps too) aptly named Operation Prosperity Guardian—to keep trade flowing. What will this military operation look like? And what will it mean for the global economy?</li><li>“Not So Bueno(s) Aires?” Argentina has a new president in the form of eccentric populist economist and literal dogfather Javier Milei. What does his election mean for the future of the country? We have a live dispatch from Buenos Aires to talk it over.</li></ul><p>For object lessons, Quinta recommended Jennifer Egan’s 2022 classic&nbsp;“<a href=\"https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/7331435\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">A Visit From the Goon Squad</a>”<em>&nbsp;</em>and her latest&nbsp;“<a href=\"https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/58437521\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">The Candy House</a>.” Scott shared his&nbsp;<a href=\"https://x.com/S_R_Anders/status/1737870209451511860?s=20\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">preferred recipe for mulled wine</a>&nbsp;and the secret ingredient: star anise. Natalie shared a wealth of new materials celebrating civil rights leader Bayard Rustin, including a new film&nbsp;<a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EuZ-UONInl4\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Rustin</a>, as well as a&nbsp;<a href=\"https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2023/11/13/eclipsed-in-his-era-bayard-rustin-gets-to-shine-in-ours\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">recent profile</a>&nbsp;in&nbsp;The New Yorker<em>.&nbsp;</em>And Eugenia gave the people what they want with her endorsement of the&nbsp;<a href=\"https://www.ea.com/games/dragon-age\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Dragon Age</a>&nbsp;series of games.</p><p><br></p>","author_name":"The Lawfare Institute"}
