Howard Lutnick to Trump: “You are fixing everything with your policies. You have changed America and created the golden age”

Trump s’en va faire ce qu’il sait le mieux faire: intimider! x.com/ArtCandee/stat…

Zelensky est un leader d'exception dans ce monde de chaos...

The strait was open. He starts a war. The strait closes. The world economy gets fucked. He doesn’t know what he’s doing, he gets bored, he declares victory, and he tells the rest of the world to open the strait, to clean up his mess. He’s such a prick. He’s such a destructive prick.

@anders_aslund Trump has been a Russian asset for many decades.

JUST IN: Two hundred helium containers are stranded in the Persian Gulf right now. Each one holds 41,000 litres of liquid helium cooled to minus 269 degrees Celsius. They have 35 to 48 days before the cryogenic systems fail, the helium boils off, and the gas vents into the atmosphere and is lost forever. Those containers were heading to semiconductor fabrication plants in Taiwan and South Korea that manufacture 90 percent of the world’s advanced chips. The helium inside them cools the extreme ultraviolet lithography machines that print transistors at two nanometres. Without it, the machines cannot operate. Without the machines, the chips do not exist. Without the chips, the AI models that are currently selecting targets in this war stop running. This is the connection that nobody has made. The same Strait of Hormuz that carries 20 percent of the world’s oil also carries the helium that cools the machines that make the chips that power the artificial intelligence that the Pentagon is using to prosecute Operation Epic Fury. Maven, the AI targeting system that compressed 2,000 analysts to 20 and selected over 1,000 targets in the first 24 hours, runs on processors manufactured by TSMC using helium sourced from Qatar. Qatar’s Ras Laffan facility, which produced 33 percent of the world’s helium as a byproduct of LNG processing, was struck by Iranian missiles on March 18 and 19 and declared force majeure. The supply is offline. The containers are stranded. The clock is ticking at minus 269 degrees. TSMC says it has 6.2 weeks of inventory and 68 to 95 percent on-site recycling. Samsung holds roughly six months but depends on Qatar for 65 percent of its supply. Both are rationing toward AI and high-bandwidth memory production, starving consumer chips to keep the advanced nodes alive. The calculus is explicit: the war gets priority over your next phone. But here is the paradox that should terrify every strategist in Washington. The AI that selects the targets requires chips that require helium that transits the chokepoint that the war has closed. The cognitive infrastructure of the air campaign depends on a supply chain that the air campaign is destroying. Every strike on Iranian naval assets that keeps Hormuz closed for another day is another day of helium inventory burned at TSMC. Every week the strait stays shut brings the fab closer to rationing. Every month of war brings the AI targeting system closer to the moment when the chips it runs on cannot be replaced because the gas that made them evaporated in a container floating off Fujairah. The Pentagon is fighting a war with artificial intelligence manufactured in Taiwan using helium from Qatar transported through the strait the war has closed. The war is eating its own brain. Taiwan imports 95 percent of its energy. Seventy percent of its oil came through Hormuz. TSMC alone consumes 10 percent of Taiwan’s electricity. The island that makes 90 percent of the world’s advanced semiconductors is powered by fuel from the chokepoint that is shut, cooled by gas from the facility that is offline, and defended by interceptors depleting faster than they can be replaced. And the country that controls the rare earth magnets, the BeiDou navigation, the helium alternative sources, and the peace talks is the same country: China. The war will end when the helium runs out, when the interceptors run out, or when Beijing decides it should. All three clocks are ticking. All three lead to the same room.

🇷🇺🇺🇦Cela fait 4 ans depuis le massacre de civils à Bucha. J'ai eu l'opportunité de rencontrer un des militaires qui ont libéré la petite ville des griffes des Russes. Soldat aguerri et expérimenté, qui a passé sa vie à faire la guerre, il a reconnu avoir été choqué par l'ampleur du massacre à Bucha. Il comprenait, à la limite, qu'il puisse y avoir des exactions et exécution sommaires contre des militaires ennemis mais pas contre des civils sans défense. N'oublions pas qu'à ce jour, la Russie nie toute implication dans ce massacre et veut nous faire croire que c'est l'armée ukrainienne qui a tué sa propre population. Alors même que des images satellites et même des vidéos de caméra surveillance prouvent à 100% la responsabilité russe. Il faut bien se rendre compte que la diplomatie russe est basée sur le mensonge. Ils mentent, on sait qu'ils mentent, ils savent qu'on sait qu'ils mentent, mais ils vont mentir malgré tout même quand tous les faits sont ultra vérifiés et sont à charge contre eux. La tragédie de Bucha symbolise toute la souffrance du peuple ukrainien vis-à-vis de son voisin russe au XIXème siècle. J'espère qu'un jour les militaires responsables de ces atrocités seront jugés et recevront des peines exemplaires. La Russie est un État terroriste, l'histoire de Bucha nous le rappelle chaque jour.

Even Robert Kagan is now assessing that the U.S. has just become an exporter of chaos to the rest of the world. There has been a precipitous intellectual decline such that its not clear that these policies that are hurting the rest of the world are even benefitting Americans.

Trump at war: 1. Start war. Do not tell allies. 2. Blow stuff up. 3. Demand regime change. 4. Blow up more stuff. 5. Demand unconditional surrender. 6. Get angry when enemy fights back. 7. Make threats. 8. Back down. Repeat. 9. Demand allies finish war. 10. Walk away.

BREAKING: UN-linked diplomat Mohamad Safa resigns, claiming he’s ‘giving his my diplomatic career to leak’ that the UN is preparing for possible nuclear weapon use against Iran. He warns of a ‘crime against humanity’ and ‘nuclear winter,’ urging global protests to stop it. Trump will stop at nothing to save his ego! Safan writes: “I don't think people understand the gravity of the situation as the UN is preparing for possible nuclear weapon use in Iran. “This is a picture of Tehran. For you uneducated, untraveled, never-served, warhawks licking your chops at the thought of bombing it. It's not some low population desert. There are families, children, family pets. Regular working class people with dreams. You're sick to want war. “Tehran is a city of nearly 10,000,000 people. Imagine nuking Washington, Berlin, Paris, London, or beyond, bombed with nuclear weapons. “I gave up my diplomatic career to leak this information. I suspended my duties so as not to be part of or a witness to this crime against humanity, in an attempt to prevent a nuclear winter before it is too late. “Yesterday, nearly ten million people protested “No Kings” in the United States. The possibility of the use of nuclear weapons must be taken very seriously. It's dangerous. Act now. Spread this message worldwide. Take the streets. Protest for our humanity and future. Only the people can stop it. History will remember us.”

Raison pour laquelle je ne parle pas vraiment de la guerre en Iran actuellement. Il n’y a pas grand chose à dire si ce n’est pour meubler ou commenter les volte-face de Trump. Et ça ne m’intéresse pas d’inonder votre TL, bien que cela ne soit pas très bon pour l’audience de mon compte. L’épisode des « deux semaines » avec la Russie devrait servir de leçon.

Right on schedule, the ticking time bomb of a global physical shortage of oil – as predicted by JP Morgan – is being detonated. North-East Asia (China, Japan, South Korea) will be next, by April 1st, then Europe by April 10th.

Multiple reports now say that the latest paramount objective of Trump’s war with Iran is to open the Strait of Hormuz. So, the mission we may send thousands of our sons and daughters to fight is literally undoing the consequences of Trump and Hegseth’s massive failure to plan for the one consequence we all knew would happen. This alone is impeachable for callous disregard for military advice.

Zelensky a donné une entrevue à la télé d'Israël où il affirme ne pas avoir parlé à Netanyahu depuis 2 ans. Dans un discours de décembre 2025, Netanyahu affirmait parler à Poutine de façon régulière. Facile de voir qui est avec qui

On ne se rend pas compte de la gravité de la crise économique qui vient. Ce n’est pas seulement le prix de l’énergie qui augmentera durablement mais toutes les activités liées à la pétrochimie - des médicaments aux engrais - qui seront affectées.

Hot take that will piss off everyone: If you are upset at this, imagine a scenario where a francophone CEO of Suncor (eg) gave a message of condolence to workers killed at a job site in rural Alberta solely in French. People would have hit the roof. This is the correct decision

Two German tourists went on holiday to Hawaii for 3 weeks. But they never left the airport. They were arrested, interrogated for 7.5 hours, accused of intending to work illegally with zero proof. They were held in prison for 3 days then deported. DO NOT TRAVEL TO THE USA.

Des terroristes de Tsahal ont détruit le mausolée de Saint-Pierre au Liban. L'un des douze apôtres, il a marché avec Jésus sur l'eau, est devenu le premier pape et est mort martyr.

🇺🇸🇮🇷 🧠 J’ai rappelé sur @BFMTV que 37 des plus éminents psychiatres américains ont depuis longtemps tiré la sonnette d’alarme sur la santé mentale de Donald Trump et son narcissisme exacerbé qui, en l’absence de contre-pouvoirs, pourrait conduire le monde entier vers l’abîme…👇
