Tim checks betting odds on whether the Iran deal holds, then brings up Karl Rove's famous quote about America being an empire that creates its own reality, arguing that era is now over.
- Tim asks if betting sites like Polymarket have odds on whether the Iran nuclear agreement holds, predicting it will because the country's collapse depends on it.
- Iran uranium enrichment agreement shows 44% odds on Polymarket, with Tim noting that insiders trading on these sites have real knowledge, not just public sentiment.
- Tim recites Karl Rove's full quote: 'We are an empire now and when we act we create our own reality... we're history's actors and you will just be left to study what we do.'
- This Rove quote was the guiding principle of American foreign policy—do something, justify it, and if people don't like it, they have no recourse because America creates the reality.
