I add to the throngs of algorithmically quarantined minds and voices on X. The dark humor isn't for you, it's for me. Clap back, it's cheaper than therapy!





BOMBSHELL! Netanyahu just casually admitted on live TV that there will be a GROUND INVASION of Iran. The air strikes were just the beginning of a massive, devastating regional war.





🚨 U.S. considers releasing Iranian oil to offset Hormuz shock U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent confirmed this morning the U.S. may allow the sale of ~140M barrels of Iranian oil stranded on tankers to ease prices, with Brent nearly hitting $120 this morning and traffic through Hormuz severely restricted. The move targets “oil on the water” — crude already extracted and loaded onto tankers but blocked by sanctions. Bessent said the U.S. would effectively “use Iranian barrels” to stabilize markets for the next 10–14 days. Here’s the math: 🔸 Normal Hormuz flows: ~20–21M barrels/day (20% of global oil needs) → now ~5.5M → about 15M barrels/day missing from global supply → over a month: ~450M barrels short 🔸 U.S. + IEA releases: ~400M barrels announced → but only ~2M barrels/day can actually reach market → over ~25 days: ~50M barrels delivered → still leaves ~400M barrel gap 🔸 Russian oil stranded at sea: ~130M barrels → reduces gap to ~270M 🔸 Iranian oil (if unsanctioned): ~140M barrels → reduces gap to ~130M 🔸 Saudi + UAE rerouting exports: ~7M barrels/day via Red Sea + Fujairah → ~140M barrels over ~20 days If all of this works perfectly, the shortfall could be closed through the end of March — but only if stranded oil flows and Gulf exports ramp as planned. 🔹The U.S. would still need a solution for Hormuz after March.





Hegseth: "My 13 year old son popped into my office last night while I was editing these remarks. He asked about the war and the families I met at Dover. I looked at him and said, 'They died for you, son. So your generation doesn't have to deal with a nuclear Iran.'"
