U.S. officials familiar with the planning said options for "reclaiming" the vital waterway include close cooperation with Panama's military and, absent that, possible war.

    Only slightly more grounded, I see a lot of similarities with Caligula or Nero.

    He has the ineffective pettiness and cruelty of Caligula, but Nero had the cultist followers who wouldn’t even accept his death and kept spreading legends that he’d show up again. (I wonder if they rioted the capital lol)

    Hoping for an ending like Caligula’s sooner rather than later though.
