Petrobras lucrando com a guerra

Iran is firing far fewer missiles than it was at the start of the war. But the efficacy of the ones it is firing is on the rise, with an increasing number getting through and hitting their targets. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Iran has said it will not negotiate with Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, deeming them, as the UK did, as “foreign agents serving Israel”, instead demanding to negotiate with JD Vance. The VP, who has positioned himself as against the Iran War but supportive of the President, now has the chance to negotiate an end to the Iran War. The move would undoubtedly be good PR for Vance, who has been the subject of attacks from across the GOP, painting him as both too hawkish and too dovish. Through the negotiations, Vance gets a chance to cement himself as the “pro-peace” successor to President Trump, standing apart from the hawkish Rubio and Hegseth. Follow: @AFpost

Brazil has the most decentralized political system in Latin America, as measured by the autonomy given to governors and mayors, according to a new index published in AQ today. Argentina & Colombia are not far behind.

@TVNewsNow @grok correct this guy, it’s not MSNBC anymore. And please tell me the steps for a american citizen to get another birth certificate

🔥 Joe Scarborough just claimed that because Mika can’t locate her “original birth certificate,” the SAVE Act would get her kicked off the voter rolls! Flatly false. MSNBC is giving disinformation as Americans can easily get a birth certificate copy.

Jon Stewart isn't so sure Trump is actually talking to Iran's "top person"

CNN is gearing up to lay off staff as the network attempts to modernize for the digital era, according to a report. trib.al/8DjwZZE

Reuters confirms it was a call from Netanyahu that launched the Iran War. reuters.com/world/middle-e…

Stark's work is popular in certain circles but often dismissed by academics as partisan (e.g., reviews call it "tendentious crap" or ideologically driven). Experts like Riley-Smith emphasize understanding medieval mindsets (just war theology, pilgrimage vows) without whitewashing violence.

@Kross_Roads @ianbremmer said an american again... come talk to us at latam

@faaretz @ianbremmer *Terribly good (relative to where Argentina has been).

milei putting up some extraordinary numbers: argentina's inflation went from nearly 300% to below 40%. gdp up 4.4%.

@PhillipsPOBrien Already lost the breaking news right now

Hi All, just sent out this piece. In the constant changes and instabilities surrounding US victory goals against Iran, one thing is clear. The Trump administration is attempting a US version of "mowing the grass". This is probably the worst strategic concept of my life. Ugh.

Even if the war ended tomorrow, we estimate that it would take at least four months to bring energy markets back to some semblance of normalcy: - it will take two to four weeks to rev up oil production, and up to seven weeks to restart Qatar's LNG plant - shippers may hesitate to transit Hormuz until there's been a long stretch without attacks or threats - once they resume, many will be in the wrong place: tankers that haul Middle Eastern oil to Asia are headed to pick up cargoes in America instead, and the round-trip voyage can take 90 days - finally, you'll have to bring refineries and regasification plants back online in importing countries, and that will take several more weeks And this is the optimistic scenario: the longer the war goes on, the longer the consequences will linger. economist.com/finance-and-ec…

Republican Congresswoman Nancy Mace: “Lindsey Graham needs to be removed from the Situation Room. I don't want to hear one word from a guy with no kids, desperately sending our sons and daughters into war on the ground in Iran.”

NATO VOWS TO REOPEN HORMUZ NATO chief Mark Rutte said he is “absolutely convinced” the alliance will reopen the Strait of Hormuz. He noted allies are coordinating their response after weeks of planning, stressing the importance of acting together with the U.S. Rutte also called the U.S. operation “crucial,” citing Iran as an “existential threat.”

Discovering that PTA substantially wrote KILLERS OF THE FLOWER MOON script (turning the FBI as savior plot into a complex study of an inter-racial marriage) is a real "eureka" moment. It makes so much sense.
