I’m in love with this sentence: “The degree to which a person can grow is directly proportional to the amount of truth he can accept about himself without running away.”

@amdshorn @biancoresearch 'tis a good question

@JamesWalston @biancoresearch How's that going so far?

When Trump announced a delay to the bombing on Monday morning, crude oil futures immediately fell 10%. Compare this to the reaction to yesterday afternoon, when he extended the delay another 10 days (red box). It was short-lived, and now, about 12 hours later, prices are meaningfully higher. I believe the market signal is that the Strait must be opened, and the military must do it. The longer we delay starting this process, the higher crude oil prices will go. All Trump did yesterday was add 10 more days to the ongoing supply shock. Any further statements by Trump about a deal are white noise to the markets. Only if the IRANIANS say the talks are going well will it impact markets. Why isn't the crude oil market substantially higher ($150+), like many are asking? I would argue that the market believes the military can open the Strait. But it will be "messy." In other words, there are no good choices, only ones that are less bad.

@biancoresearch Lack of clarity in public statements is an excellent way to keep enemies off balance. Sorry it isn't fun for markets.

As a follow up, I'm not going to mince words ... If the real reason for the delay is that the military assets needed were not in place, then don't make up shit about 10 tankers going through the Strait (no evidence) or the Iranians asked for the delay (the Pakistanis, who are the intermediaries, said no such request was made). Say you'll keep talking, you're losing patience, and say every day the Iranians don't deal means the Marines are getting closer to the Middle East. The market would understand that, and the crude oil response (fall and stay down) might have been more favorable. This just looks like a TACO mess.

🚨 HOLY CRAP! Senator Cruz CONFIRMED that Biden’s FBI wiretapped Susie Wiles during a PRIVILEGED CALL with her lawyer without the consent of EITHER party. To make it HORRENDOUSLY worse, they then tried to HIDE evidence of their actions by marking the file “prohibited.” This makes Watergate look like CHILD’S PLAY. Accountability is not optional. These people MUST be held accountable.

🚨 SILVER CRASHED NEARLY -50% IN 53 DAYS. And we may have found who caused it. Silver hit ATH $121.64 on January 29, 2026. Today it sits at $65, a 46% collapse, and 25% of that drop happened AFTER February 25, 2026. Why does that date matter? Meet Jane Street. They made $20.5 billion in revenue in 2024 with only 3,000 employees, more than Citibank and Bank of America who both have 200,000+ employees. They do not bet on markets going up or down. They bet on markets MOVING. 87% of their $662 billion portfolio is in options, which make money when prices swing hard and fast. In Q4 2025, Jane Street bought 20.67 million shares of SLV, the most liquid silver ETF in the world, up from just 41,100 shares the quarter before. That is a 500x increase while silver was rallying hard, and nobody knew. - January 29: Silver hits $121.64 ATH with everyone maximally long. - January 30: Silver collapses 30% in 30 hours, the worst precious metals crash since 1980, with CME raising margin requirements mid crash and cascading liquidations making it worse. - February 25: Jane Street's 13F filing becomes public and the world finds out they were the LARGEST holder of SLV the entire time, bigger than BlackRock and Morgan Stanley. Silver is now dowm another 25% after this disclosure. So Jane Street built a $1.3B secret position while silver rallied, silver crashed 30% in 30 hours, the world found out they were the biggest holder only AFTER the crash, and silver dropped another 25% on top. 49% down total, sitting at $69 today. Here is what most people are missing. A 13F filing only shows long equity positions and does NOT show short positions, derivatives or the full options book, meaning Jane Street could have had a massive short bet on silver through options and nobody would know. Step 1: buy $1.3B of SLV and become the largest holder. Step 2: build a 10x larger options position betting on silver falling. Step 3: use that size to push the price down, ETF loses a little and options make 10x back. Step 4: nobody finds out until 45 days after quarter end when the crash is already done. This is not just a theory. There is documented proof Jane Street ran this EXACT playbook in India between 2023 and 2025. SEBI wrote a 105-page order, the largest fine in their history, and impounded $570 million from Jane Street. On Bank Nifty expiry days, Jane Street bought massive amounts of index stocks in the morning to push prices up while simultaneously building short options positions 7.3 times larger than their stock position. Then in the afternoon they sold everything, the index dropped and their puts printed money. On a single day they lost $7.5M on stocks and made $89M on options. The stock trade was just the cost of running the operation. SEBI found this across 18 expiry days and a whistleblower said it happened on 90 to 95% of all trading days. In crypto, the bankruptcy administrator of Terraform Labs filed an 83 page federal lawsuit against Jane Street alleging they used inside information to front-run the $40 billion Terra/LUNA collapse. When Terraform quietly withdrew $150 million from Curve Finance with zero public notice, a wallet linked to Jane Street pulled $85 million from the same pool within 10 minutes. A Jane Street employee had interned at Terraform and allegedly ran a private chat called "Bryce's Secret" with insiders as a back channel for non-public information, and Jane Street allegedly avoided $200M+ in losses. Blockchain forensics traced the wallet back to Jane Street through Coinbase records. Same pattern as India: get positioned ahead of the move, extract the profit, everyone else takes the loss. The physical silver backing SLV is held by JPMorgan, who paid $920 million in 2020 for manipulating precious metals markets, the largest CFTC sanction ever, after admitting their traders placed hundreds of thousands of fake orders in gold and silver futures for 8 straight years with their top spoofer receiving 2 years in prison. So the full picture: the silver backing the ETF is held by a bank convicted of 8 years of silver manipulation, and the largest holder of that ETF is a firm documented running a cash into derivatives manipulation scheme in India and facing a federal lawsuit for insider front running in crypto. Silver is down 46% and sitting at $65 today. None of this is proven in a US court and the macro explanations for the crash are real. But no regulator has asked the one question that matters: what was Jane Street's TOTAL net silver position on January 29 and 30, including the full options book and complete derivatives exposure? Because if the India playbook was running in silver, the $1.3B ETF stake was just the cost. The options position on the other side was the profit. And the 49% crash was not a crash. It was a payout.

@BasedMikeLee @SenDuckworth

1. This is a lie 2. Read the damn bill 3. The text beginning on page 12, line 22 makes abundantly clear that what you’re saying isn’t true 4. Why can’t Senate Democrats argue against this bill without lying?

@hasanthehun Why are they using generators?

cuban doctors told me they have to sew up patients mid surgery when the generators run out of gas but maga on here are too busy lying about the ppl that went out to cuba w aid to turn everything into a distractive spectacle. pure maga propaganda. you’re cattle if you fall for it.

@SawyerMerritt @SpaceX Amazon, in my mind, is on the axis of unreliable corporations regarding tyranny. I don't want them doing anything more than AWS already does...

NEWS: Jeff Bezos' rocket company Blue Origin has filed an official request with the FCC to launch and operate a constellation of 51,600 AI satellites (orbital datacenters), just two weeks after Amazon filed a formal petition calling on the FCC to deny @SpaceX’s 1 million-satellite proposal for orbiting datacenters, going as far to claim the project would take “centuries” to deploy. Blue Origin's project, called “Project Sunrise,” would include up to 51,600 satellites in low Earth orbit, designed to run AI and cloud computing workloads using constant solar power. The system would primarily use laser (optical) links between satellites. Blue Origin says "space-based data centers could relieve pressure on Earth’s power grids and water usage."

@jeffreytucker Watch you Y axis, Mr. Exaggeration.

If there is not panic/regret/freakout in the White House, they aren't paying attention. This is disaster.

WSJ: Tesla Finally Has Its First Semi-Truck and It’s Already a Hit With Truckers. "Truckers who drove it in pilot tests say they loved features including a centered driving position, faster charging and longer range for about $100,000 less than other battery-electric trucks. Angel Rodriguez, a 56-year-old truck driver for Hight Logistics in Long Beach, Calif., recently swapped out a 13-gear diesel truck for a Tesla Semi, which is automatic, for a one-month pilot test. “It’s just easier on your body. It’s less stressful because you’re not really having to engage the clutch and the stick shift.” Big F Transport employs five mechanics to service more than 40 diesel-powered rigs and a fleet of trailer chassis in Wilmington, Calif. “If we go all EV we will only need one [mechanic] to service chassis,” said Geovanny Melendez, the carrier’s VP of operations, who went to see the Semi earlier this month at a ride-and-drive event near the Port of Long Beach. Jennie Abarca, co-founder and CEO of King Fio Trucking in Long Beach, Calif., once worked as a truck dispatcher and her husband is a truck driver, so she knows all too well the toll a diesel engine takes on people’s lungs and hearing. She eventually wants to swap out King Fio’s 27 diesel trucks to create an all-electric fleet. King Fio already has 11 battery-electric trucks from Volvo and Nikola. But the company limits those trucks to shorter trips to and from local ports because they only have a range of about 225 miles. The Semi, by contrast, can travel 500 miles on a single charge, according to Tesla. For King Fio that means two or three round-trips a day from Long Beach to warehouses in the nearby Inland Empire or a single round-trip to Las Vegas. She has 20 Semis on order. “The Teslas change everything,” Abarca said. “It opens up a whole different type of delivery that I can make.”

Utah's next Governor opposes the SAVE America Act. This is a crisis in Utah, and all red states. They will all be California within 5 years unless YOU - yes all of you who are obsessed with blue states - get involved and remove the rot.

***BREAKING - NATIONAL SECURITY ISSUE*** 66,146 GOP ballots DELETED during TX early voting. 87,336 voters appeared, disappeared, reappeared in state records. The Cornyn-Paxton margin is only 26K. Someone inside the system is picking our nominees. Don’t certify. Audit no, this is too big not to notice. Complacency will end our Constitutional Republic! WHAT HAPPENED? Your vote disappeared. During early voting, thousands of Texas ballots vanished from official state records—then reappeared—then vanished again. In BOTH parties. The data proves someone inside the system is manipulating who wins. We need answers before November. THE PROBLEM IN SIMPLE NUMBERS: REPUBLICAN PRIMARY: •87,336 voters appeared, disappeared, then reappeared in state records •66,146 ballots completely deleted from final count •35,772 extra ballots added to people who already voted •Only 26,000 votes separate Cornyn and Paxton—but 66,000 ballots disappeared DEMOCRAT PRIMARY: •37,039 voters appeared, disappeared, then reappeared •10,558 ballots completely deleted from final count •35,169 extra ballots added to people who already voted •144,000 votes separate Senate candidates—but 10,000+ ballots vanished Why This Matters: •These numbers are bigger than the margins in major races •This affects who appears on your November ballot •Both parties were hit—this isn’t partisan, it’s corruption THREE SIMPLE RULES THEY BROKE: Rule #1: Numbers Should Never Go Backwards •What should happen: Vote totals only go UP as more people vote •What actually happened: On February 17, the vote count went DOWN seven different times •Translation: Ballots were deleted in real-time during voting Rule #2: One Person, One Ballot •What should happen: Your Voter ID gets one ballot recorded •What actually happened: 1,549 Republican voters and 54 Democrat voters had MULTIPLE ballots counted •Translation: The system is stacking extra votes on real people Rule #3: Your Ballot Stays Counted •What should happen: Once you vote, your ballot stays in the record •What actually happened: 66,146 Republican and 10,558 Democrat voter records completely vanished by the end •Translation: Real votes were erased This isn’t a theory. This is downloaded government data from the Secretary of State’s website. Every day during early voting, researchers saved a copy of who voted. When they compared those snapshots, the numbers moved BACKWARDS. That’s mathematically impossible unless someone is inside the system changing records in real-time.” Supporting fact: The Texas Secretary of State changed the data file format multiple times during early voting and made access intermittent—exactly when researchers were watching. Whoever controls our elections controls TRILLIONS in state and federal budgets. This is a national security emergency. Foreign adversaries, cartels, corporate interests—anyone with the resources to breach our systems can now pick our leaders. President Trump, AG Bondi, and DNI Gabbard need to treat this like the cyber-attack it is and lock it down BEFORE November. #TXPrimary #ElectionIntegrity Thank you @Unite4Freedom for your in-depth dive into this National Security issue.
