@WSJ Honestly more worried about diesel and jet fuel prices

There is an argument that Americans shouldn’t worry much about $4 gasoline. The people filling their tanks might not be convinced by it. Here, charts show the price change and the spending on motor fuel as a share of personal income: 🔗 on.wsj.com/4lZobgA

@AlmightySamjack @_carlbeijer Yeah Normies LOVE HER. It really doesn’t take much charisma and social welfare politics to move the needle in an era of geriatric leaders and AOC has that. Actual politics is another issue of course.

@_carlbeijer You're too black-pilled brother, there's a hunger for our politics like never before.

"If she runs, the energy around her race would likely match or even exceed the peak of what was seen in the Bernie 2016 and 2020 campaigns." Best of luck but I do not think that is very plausible

📌 Iran moves toward toll system in Strait of Hormuz 🔹A member of Iran’s National Security Commission said lawmakers have approved a formal plan to codify Iran's control over the Strait of Hormuz, according to Fars. 🔹The proposal includes new “financial arrangements” and riyal-based tolls on transit, alongside expanded security and naval control measures. The plan also calls for banning U.S. and Israeli vessels from passage, restricting countries that impose unilateral sanctions on Iran, and formalizing Iran’s sovereign enforcement role through its armed forces. 🔹Oman, notably, is referenced as a potential partner in shaping the legal framework. While the committee has approved the plan, it still requires a vote by the full parliament (Majlis) and final ratification by the Supreme National Security Council to become law.

@Gibdan1 @air_intel @WarshipCam @NavyLookout @seawaves_mag Yes. Gibraltar is where ships in / out chop for their Med cruises. This is *not* unusual.

🚨After 16 years of a covert intelligence operation, the engineer who disrupted uranium enrichment in Iran has been revealed. An investigative report by a Dutch newspaper has uncovered the identity of the agent who introduced the “Stuxnet” worm into the main uranium enrichment facility in Natanz, central Iran. Sixteen years after the largest operation targeting Iran’s nuclear program, the Dutch newspaper De Volkskrant revealed details of how U.S. and Israeli intelligence accessed the highly fortified facility, after a Dutch engineer successfully delivered virus-infected equipment into Natanz and installed it on water pumps. According to the investigation, Dutch engineer Erik van Sabben, an agent of the Dutch General Intelligence and Security Service (AIVD), managed to reach the Natanz facility to carry out the operation, which was preceded by years of preparation and cooperation between the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and Israel’s Mossad, at a cost of $1 billion to develop the virus. Regarding the decision to reveal the operative’s identity, the newspaper stated that his death “eliminated the risk of Iranian retaliation,” noting that his family agreed to disclose his name and publish his photo. The report stated that the engineer carried out an extremely high-risk mission in Iran by infiltrating the Natanz facility in 2007, where he installed infected devices and equipment, leading to the disruption of around 1,000 centrifuges at the site. According to the newspaper, the Dutch engineer, who was married to an Iranian woman, worked for a transport company in Dubai and traveled multiple times to Iran. The company, TTS International, said it had previously shipped spare parts for Iran’s oil and gas industry, but was unaware of its employee’s covert activities. It remains unclear whether van Sabben used his job to import nuclear-related equipment into Iran or whether he knew that the equipment he delivered to Natanz contained a destructive virus. At the end of 2008, van Sabben and his family traveled to Iran for a New Year holiday lasting ten days, but the day after arriving, he urged his family to leave immediately. Two weeks after his mysterious departure from Iran, van Sabben died in an accident in Sharjah near Dubai, after losing control of his motorcycle, which overturned and broke his neck. His death raised questions within Dutch intelligence, with concerns that it might be linked to his covert activities in Iran. The two-year investigation was based on testimonies from 43 individuals, including 19 from the Dutch intelligence services (AIVD and MIVD), as well as former employees of the Mossad, Israeli Military Intelligence (Aman), and the CIA. It is worth noting that the United States and Israel developed the “Stuxnet” virus, which was discovered in 2010 after being used to attack the Natanz facility, marking the first cyberattack of its kind targeting industrial equipment. The virus is a malicious computer program designed to attack widely used industrial control systems produced by the German company Siemens AG, exploiting security vulnerabilities in Microsoft Windows.

@WSJ It’s absurdly quick too

Measuring cholesterol levels has long been the main way doctors assess the risk of heart disease. Increasingly, people are opting, too, for a simple, relatively affordable test: a coronary artery calcium scan. Here’s more to know about the scans: 🔗 on.wsj.com/4827nQi

@RichardHanania Economists writing about subjects outside their field is a joke in academia for a reason. Their theoretical frameworks are terrible. Rigorous mean F-all of they can’t grasp basic pitfalls of the subjects they opine about.

If you’ve ever read an empirical paper in a top economic journal and compare it to another social science, it’s night and day. Learning about the standards of economics has made me embarrassed of the correlational regression monkey studies I used to read in political science.

Tyler Cowen in his new book on why economists write about topics outside their area of expertise: “The dirty little secret is that what distinguishes economics as a field, right now, is a mix of higher standards, harder work, better math, and higher IQs.” This is clearly true.

@SMT_Solvers @PeterZeihan So like sectarianism?

@PeterZeihan No, you need to empower Federalism in Iran. That means going all in on their extreme distributed military units and putting them under more local control.

If the U.S. wants to force a meaningful change in Iran's government, there's only one path forward. They have to destabilize the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). Full Newsletter: bit.ly/4sB6eYq #iranwar #geopolitics

@cj_birdlaw @DropSiteNews

@DropSiteNews Live look at Trump's talk with Iranian officials.

⭕️ President Trump declares regime change successful: “Frankly, they’ve been very reasonable. I think we’ve had regime change. You can’t do much better than that.” He said negotiations with Iran are going “very well” with “very good meetings both directly and indirectly” with the leaders now in-charge, and pointed to tankers heading to Pakistan as evidence. Iranian sources have told Drop Site those vessels were simply a result of bilateral negotiations with Pakistan. Earlier, Trump also told the Financial Times that indirect talks with Iran via Pakistani intermediaries are “going very well,” claiming Tehran allowed 10 Pakistan-flagged tankers through the Strait of Hormuz, now doubled to 20, describing it as a “present” to him. “The people we’re dealing with are a totally different group of people… [They] are very professional,” Trump said.

@ireallyhateyou @snackvampire 40,000 protesters were killed by the state. I heard it from a think tank.

Almost every single post by this account is fake news. There was a tiny demonstration in Tel Aviv yesterday, which was dispersed by the police almost immediately. Almost the entire Israeli public still support the imperialist war.

@zerohedge Ukraine weapons are lend-lease which is a sunk cost proposition but you still have to have a Ukrainian state to extract that back. With Iran there is no asset on the books. It’s just a wasting cause for the benefit of regional actors.
