BREAKING: Iran has delivered its highly anticipated "10-point" response to the US' "15-point peace plan."
Iran's 10-point plan includes:
1. Guarantee that Iran will not be attacked again
2. Permanent end to the war, not just a ceasefire
3. End to Israeli strikes in Lebanon
4. Lifting of all US sanctions on Iran
5. End to all regional fighting against Iranian allies
6. In return, Iran would open the Strait of Hormuz
7. Iran would impose a Hormuz fee of $2 million per ship
8. Iran would split these fees with Oman
9. Iran to provide rules for safe passage through Hormuz
10. Iran to use Hormuz fees for reconstruction instead of reparations
President Trump's "deadline" for a peace deal with Iran is 25 hours away.

@JavierBlas You can just say you don’t understand international law.
Protocol 1 Article 51-/87: the attacker still bears proportionality obligations even if the defender violates these prohibitions.
You are running interference for the gravest crime of our lifetime

Iran is likely to deploy human shields to its bridges and power plants tonight. The use of civilians as human shields is banned under the Geneva Conventions (article 51).

@michaelshermer This guy is a pathological liar and it is well known that UFO conspriacy theories are trotted out by the pentagon whenever they need to distract from something. They said so themselves: wsj.com/politics/natio…

I must say that Marco Rubio exhibits high integrity when it comes to the UAP/UFO topic and so my level of trust in what he says he is willing to reveal is high, especially when he says "there's no reason to keep it a secret."
Exactly. Just show us what it is flying US airspace.

🚨 MARCO RUBIO UFO BOMBSHELL: "We shot down FOUR things over the United States... and THREE of them we have NO IDEA what they are”👽🛸 "For the first time in 65 years, the United States shot something down over our airspace not once but four times. Three of those four things we have no idea what they are." "We've been seeing objects flying over restricted airspace... immediately it was about UFOs and flying saucers and aliens." "These are important questions... the American people deserve to know." Is this real UFO/alien disclosure... or advanced foreign tech sneaking into our skies? 🔥 Watch the full clip and drop your take below 👇 Aliens? Adversaries? Or finally telling us the truth!

@ahauslohner @mehdirhasan Why are US planes and Helicopters flying low and refueling in Iranian airspace without getting shot down? I think Iran should just surrender at this point because if this can happen unchallenged, then a ground invasion by the U.S. would be very successful.

Taking Kharg Island or bombing powerplants takes Iran's oil off global markets for a long time. That spikes oil by a lot more and is what markets fear most. Better to do an embargo and take Iran's oil off the market temporarily. That contains oil prices...

NEW — 🇺🇸🇮🇷🇮🇱🇸🇦🇱🇧🇪🇸Republican Senator Lindsey Graham in an interview with Fox News with a lot of criticism of the Gulf countries, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, and Spain:
To anyone who doesn't believe that Iran will use nuclear weapons - you are stupid. You are stupid and I hate to say it like that.
To our allies - if you can't join this fight, what fight are you going to join?
To Spain - you do not allow us to use your airbase - our airbases - in your country to stop a murderous regime from obtaining nuclear weapons that terrorize the world.
I recommend Trump to move all our bases out of Spain tonight.
To Lebanon - there is a military commander responsible for the Lebanese army whom I do not trust.
He deliberately ignores Hezbollah. He does not dismantle Hezbollah's weapons.
Let's bring someone else to be responsible for the Lebanese army and operate it.
Saudi Arabia - our embassy in Riyadh was attacked. Don't you have an obligation to join this fight with us? You still haven't done so.
So if you don't believe that the attack on the American embassy in Riyadh will trigger a mutual self-defense alliance, maybe we shouldn't make a deal with you.

@MeghanMcCain So you’re a fat stooge for genocide with practically no reason for it, thanks for clarifying

Israel has never paid me anything for anything, let alone tweets.
It’s a sick and vile trope and quite frankly a pathetically reductive attempt at making an argument when you’ve already lost it. We are just plain supporters of Israel for political and faith reasons.
English
@curtis_yarvin Not exactly true though. 90% of consumer goods sold in U.S. are made domestically. Goods imports are equal to just 11.2% of GDP.
US produces 16% of global Industrial output compared to 26% of global GDP. US industrial output is near an all time high. It’s just automated.

More accurate to say that AI will reveal that there is no American economy.
Americans do not work. When we stopped working for Covid, nothing happened. Our tangible goods are made by overseas slaves. Our tangible services are performed by imported slaves.
Great paper, read it

@TheStalwart China has more M2 than the rest of the world combined and not enough stable assets to deploy into.

It also doesn't fit the narratives about healthy growth and domestic stability in China

The stories coming out of Chinese retail traders racking up gigantic losses in gold don't exactly fit the dollar debasement story, do they? Here's another one. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

🚨 THE U.S. IS BLOCKING $10,000 TRUCKS AND $8,000 SELF-DRIVING CARS FROM AMERICANS - AND NOBODY WILL SAY WHY
A guy just exposed something wild on camera:
Toyota sells brand-new $10,000 trucks in countries all over the world… except the United States.
China sells $8,000 BYD cars that literally drive themselves.
But Americans?
We’re told $35k–$45k is “normal,” and if we can’t afford it, that’s just “the market.”
Meanwhile, the same companies happily sell ultra-cheap vehicles everywhere except here while Americans drown in car loans, dealership markups, and insurance spikes.
So what’s the real reason the U.S. is the only place where cheap, basic cars magically don’t exist?
Safety?
Regulation?
Or something nobody wants to say out loud?
If other countries get $10k trucks and $8k self-driving cars… why are Americans the only ones being forced to pay luxury prices for basic transportation?

@robin_j_brooks The fact that they have little fiscal room is made more acute by the ask that they meet nato defence spending requirements. Better than building tanks or aircraft which don’t have the same fiscal multiplier as a bridge.
English
Italy’s bridge to Sicily is a gift to Putin because it does nothing to really make Europe safer from Russian aggression, while diverting scarce fiscal space - which Italy has little of - away from what would truly protect Europe. This is Superbonus 2.0… on.ft.com/3UM6YKH
