I highly recommend the book, “Thomas Jefferson and the Tripoli Pirates” for people who want to read how Jefferson took care of an entrenched, aggressive literal pirate king who demanded “tribute” and kneeling from any who passed by his domain.
(I’m not a paid representative of the authors or the publishers and not a marketing shill - I’m just a fan who learned a lot that -surprise! They didn’t really teach us in school)
