From the second article:

There are lots of weasel words in the above, but by far, the largest
transfer of wealth is our purchase of foreign oil. Or, did you think
Saudi Arabia was always a wealthy country?

You're right. But at least we're getting something for our money.

We should definitely be doing a lot more drilling at home and building
a lot more nuclear plants. You've got the right attitude.

We're getting plenty of rope from the Saudis. You know what you do with
plenty of rope, right?
