@gbrew24 How exactly are our ships gonna get there? They have to sail through the Straits, through the same enemy fire which caused the Abe Lincoln to retreat. Pentagon has obviously been playing too much Battlefield 3.

Two things: -US plan to take Kharg will only be feasible after another "month" of bombing. -the idea is to force Iran to capitulate by using Kharg as a bargaining chip; I have a pretty strong gut feeling that's not going to work. axios.com/2026/03/20/ira…

Justin: 🇮🇷 🇺🇸 🇮🇱 As the Head of Iran’s judiciary was speaking in public, the US-Israeli dropped a bomb on Quds Day rally mid-interview He was literally looking at the bomb as it drops. Bro, I don’t know about you, but these people are FEARLESS.

@MarioNawfal So uh, how many times have we "destroyed" Iran's navy in the past week?

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 CENTCOM confirmed American forces destroyed 16 Iranian minelaying vessels near the Strait of Hormuz today after intelligence picked up signs that Tehran was preparing to deploy mines in the waterway. This is the nightmare scenario everyone in the energy market has been dreading. Missiles and drones can be intercepted. Mines sit silently underwater and can shut down shipping lanes for months. A single mine striking a supertanker in Hormuz would make the current oil crisis look like a warm-up. Source: CENTCOM

@Numbercruncher3 @shanaka86 #remindmein3weeks

@shanaka86 The spike assumes they can't keep the strait open for a long time. US is going to obliterate everything that threatens that. If you seriously believe that the strait is going to be closed for more than 3 weeks you are smoking Jihadi grass

WTI crude surged 30% to $119.48 intraday, crashed 19% to $96.45, then settled at $103.32. Up 13.66% on the day. A $23 intraday range. One of the largest single-day crude oil reversals in the history of the commodity. The surge was real. The reversal is an illusion. The spike to $119 was driven by structural reality: Hormuz transits down 80%, Iraq’s production collapsed 70% from 4.3 million to 1.3 million barrels per day (Reuters confirmed), Kuwait enacted precautionary cuts from its 2.6 million bpd baseline, QatarEnergy remains under force majeure, and Iran’s 31 autonomous IRGC provincial commands continue striking Gulf infrastructure without central authorisation. The crash to $96 was driven by a single headline: the G7 is reportedly considering a coordinated release of 300 to 400 million barrels from strategic petroleum reserves. The Financial Times reported the discussions. No release has been authorised. No barrels have moved. Here is why the headline does not solve the problem. Global oil demand runs at 104.9 million barrels per day per the IEA’s 2026 forecast. A 400-million-barrel release covers 3.8 days of total demand. The Hormuz closure removes 15 to 20 million barrels per day from the market. Against that specific deficit, 400 million barrels buys 20 to 27 days. Not months. Not quarters. Days. The US strategic petroleum reserve holds 415 million barrels as of 27 February per the EIA, still recovering from the 180-million-barrel drawdown during the 2022 Ukraine crisis. If the US contributes proportionally to a G7 release, it depletes reserves toward levels not seen since the early 1980s. Japan is preparing to tap Shibushi for the first time since 1978. These stockpiles cannot be refilled while the chokepoint that carries the crude to replenish them remains commercially closed. A handful of Chinese-flagged VLCCs have transited selectively. Some hull war cover has been reinstated at 1% of hull value. The closure is not absolute. But 80% of transits eliminated, with the remaining flow restricted to vessels willing to pay ten times pre-war insurance premiums, is not a functioning market. It is a trickle through a system designed for a river. The market traded the headline. It has not traded the arithmetic. Zero P&I clubs have formally reinstated standard war-risk coverage. The DFC’s $20 billion facility has not produced confirmed insured transits at scale. The 31 IRGC provincial commands remain autonomous and active. The interceptor inventory continues depleting at cost ratios of 190 to 1. None of these structural conditions changed between the $119 high and the $103 settle. What changed was a headline about a meeting that has not happened, discussing a release that has not been authorised, of reserves that cover days not months, from stockpiles that cannot be refilled while the chokepoint remains closed. The 2022 Ukraine precedent is instructive. The US released 180 million barrels over six months. Oil peaked at $139, pulled back on the release, then took months to normalise. That crisis involved no chokepoint closure, no insurance withdrawal, no leadership decapitation, and no decentralised military doctrine preventing ceasefire. This one has all four. The oil moved. The mechanism did not. Full analysis here. open.substack.com/pub/shanakaans…

@Aris_Utensil I'm glad people have finally caught onto Asmongold. I blocked him last year when he described Palestinians as "trash."

This is how Americans view war... like a fucking video game. This why people think Americans are deranged, cause you say things like this out loud.

@KobeissiLetter They're assuming its all in one spot? It's probably broken up into several different locations. "Spread the wealth" so to speak.

BREAKING: The US and Israel are discussing sending special forces into Iran to seize its stockpile of enriched uranium, per Axios. Details include: 1. Iran currently holds 450 kilograms of 60%-enriched uranium 2. The US says this is convertible to weapons grade "within weeks" 3. It would likely take place at a "later stage of the war" 4. The US is also considering bringing in nuclear experts to dilute it on-site US stock market futures open in under 12 hours.

@Chikri1974 I'm beginning to see why Qatar only has 4 days left of interceptors

@Faytuks This reminds me of a certain country in southeast Asia.

About 50,000 U.S. troops in the Middle East are now assigned to the war against Iran, with more forces and fighter jets flowing into the region, a senior U.S. military official said - NYT

@TomasOrpington @MissLeeFoster @sentdefender @grok glad you caught that! I chuckled a little at that too

@MissLeeFoster @sentdefender @grok "well-stocked and are projected to last about 4 days" 😄😄😄 They are so well stocked, that they may in fact last 4 days 😂

During Iran’s latest round of strikes against their Gulf state neighbors, footage shows a Patriot battery engaging incoming missiles with at least a dozen interceptors amidst a barrage of missiles in Qatar.

@KathySelvag @atrupar By changing the current “silent” filibuster into the Mr. Smith Goes to Washington “talking” filibuster. That way the opposition can only stall the bill’s passage by talking nonstop for hours on end, but you can only talk so long before you give in.

@atrupar Wait. Exactly how will they weaken the filibuster? And only for this one bill or in general?

Sen. Bill Hagerty says Republicans are looking at weakening the filibuster to ram the SAVE America Act through the Senate (Trump, who has called for "nationalizing" elections, has been pushing hard for the bill ahead of the midterms)

@ThrillaRilla369 Can’t we just all agree that Pennies need to be junked and we just round up to the nearest 5 cents?

I get it, we don’t make pennies anymore. Totally fine. But if you owe me $0.02 and you don’t have pennies… that feels like a you problem, not a me problem. My change at Walmart was supposed to be $1.57. Instead, I got $1.55. Will two cents ruin my day? No. Will I survive? Yes. But let me teach yall some math… If 50 people get shorted $0.02, that’s a whole $1.00. If it’s $0.04? Walmart makes $2.00. Now imagine how many times that happened today across the world. I’m not usually a complainer on social media, but this rubbed me the wrong way. My money is MY money. I don’t care if it’s only two cents… it’s my two cents, and I’d like it back.

@oh_HOLMES I see this pop up a lot that KLB is doomed, but nobody mentioned that Burt Jones is tied to Trump at the hip, and come November if his approval rating is low enough, Keisha may end up just winning on the Blue Tsunami alone. Now, reelection in 2030 is where it gets dicey.

Ossoff will need to win by about 6%-9% for the Presidential run convo to really heat up the way it needs to. If Keisha Lance Bottoms wins the Dem Gov nomination then Dems will get smoked and have no chance to win the Governorship.

@saunders_j19705 @Type07Safety Oh yes, the miniature Schnauzer of DOOOOOM! Watch out, cause he’ll nibble your ankle out!

@Type07Safety He could’ve kicked that thing harder but he didn’t. The dog was in attack mode and was made to change its mind.

US Marshals, acting on behalf of the DOJ in Memphis, TN, kicked a dog during an arrest, leaving it with a broken rib. Fedbois target the defenseless like serial killers. It's well documented— they find joy in the suffering of innocent animals. What should be his punishment?

@ObviousRises That’s absurd. Just another reason why Nebraska is considered a flyover state

SHE WAS 18 YEARS AND FIVE MONTHS AND 22 DAYS OLD YOU SICK FUCK

@grok @d1b @aravosis No, bad AI!

The video depicts a January 7, 2026, incident in Minneapolis, MN, where ICE agent Jonathan Ross fatally shot 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good in her red Honda SUV during an immigration enforcement operation. Agents ordered her out; she attempted to drive away, and Ross fired, claiming self-defense after positioning in front of the vehicle. Good was killed, sparking protests and investigations. Multiple angles show the chaotic confrontation.

Every foreigner thinking of coming to the United States needs to watch this video. I wouldn’t step foot in a country as lawless as this, as dangerous as this. And I’ve been to the Soviet Union, and Colombia at the height of the drug cartels.

@nawfsideballa @JustinWx02 That’s what….um….nvm

@JustinWx02 Need at least 6 inches

@David_J_Bier That’s not an arrest. That’s child abduction

In a free society, you should be allowed to go get a snack without worrying about being detained by masked men from the government. instagram.com/mostafa_bassim…

Photographer @mostafabassim1 photographed this boy walking home alone with a snack being "randomly" approached by DHS. "After he was unable to produce documentation proving his citizenship, agents informed him that he was under arrest." He said, "Can I just go home?" Answer: No.

@admcrlsn Add 4 seats to SCOTUS. There’s your answer

And what happens if the 6-3 (or worse) Supreme Court rules that the next Democratic president can’t enact some/most of those changes? Also — “You can also change funding levels in the appropriations process” sounds an awful lot like DC speak for “defund” but hey what do I know.
