The foreign ministers of Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Egypt met in Islamabad today  to figure out how to end the war in the Middle East. Notice who was not in the room. The United States delivered a 15-point action list and a deadline. Iran called the demands unreasonable and the actions contradictory.  So the region simply organised itself without Washington, assembled a new diplomatic bloc in real time, and started talking. The U.S did not decline the invitation. It was never sent one.

The same stain on society who would call ICE on their students. 😑

Trump: losing world reserve currency would be worse than losing a major war, we wouldn't be the same country anymore And yet, it looks like the US is heading toward both. - It has suffered a humiliating defeat against Iran - Is about to lose the petrodollar The petrodollar system only works as long as the US can enforce it... militarily and politically. That was always the deal. Security in exchange for oil being sold in USD and surpluses being recycled into US assets. The GCC are quickly realizing that they got a target on their back instead of security. This means new alliances emerge, new deals are being made... multipolarity sets in That’s exactly what we are seeing now. - China is already pushing the yuan as an alternative. - yuan foreign bond issuance is surging 3x yoy - Iran demanding yuan for Hormuz transit Step by step, settlement moves away from USD. Less dollar demand -> less recycling into Treasuries -> higher yields -> more pressure on the system

Someone opening a $17 million+ oil short. Another Trump truth social post coming?

NEW 🔴 Pakistani sources say Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Egypt are considering a consortium to manage oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz, and have invited Pakistan to join.

Former U.S. surgeon general Dr. Jerome Adams disapproves of the Trump administration’s Surgeon General Casey Means’ assessment on the measles vaccines, saying “this isn’t personal or political … it's about her not having the basic qualifications to do the job.” “She does not have an active medical license and would be the first surgeon general ever to be in the role to not have an active medical license,” he says. “But beyond that, to the point you brought up, in the midst of a massive measles outbreak, America needs a surgeon general who can clearly stand behind vaccines.”

BREAKING: Emirates Global Aluminium’s Al Taweelah facility in Abu Dhabi is on fire. Iranian missiles and drones. The UAE. Bahrain. This is no longer a war between Israel and Iran. The Gulf is now a target. The oil, the aluminium, the infrastructure that keeps the global economy breathing. All of it in range. All of it burning. Gandalv / @Microinteracti1

Absolute humiliation for the Trump administration. An academic brutally roasts the entire cabinet as sub mediocre yes men. He mocks Marco Rubio's incompetence, Tulsi Gabbard's lack of intelligence, and exposes Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff as complete amateurs.

BREAKING: Russia shared satellite images of Prince Sultan US base in Saudi with Iran right before their attack that injured our troops. Ukrainian intel confirms it. Meanwhile Trump refuse to condemn Russia. Is this what you voted for?

Reform implosion in Croydon Things falling apart 4 attempts to choose Mayoral candidate 1 pulled out this week First one had been dead 6 months when selected 🤣 Council candidates resigning Mayoral candidate now a parachuted in Tory

Trump says he needs another $200,000,000,000 for his war. Not for health care. Not for housing. Not for education. Instead, he's asking every family to chip in $1,400 to keep bombing Iran.

Where the fuck is Congress?!?!

Of note: a new UK poll published today shows that Starmer's approval rating has increased by 26 percent because of his refusal to let the UK join the war.

Erika Kirk stood before the world and declared forgiveness for Tyler Robinson, the young white MAGA man who murdered her husband Charlie, but she wants to lynch Druski, a Black man, for making a skit. Make it make sense.

He's missed EVERY Clacton Regeneration Town Meeting.

We’re already reaching the “Kim Jong-il was born on the top of a mountain” stage of Trumpism

Let me tell you exactly what Fox figured out in 1993. Roger Ailes looked around and asked — who’s the threat? Not Bill Clinton, the threat is Hillary Clinton. They spent billions of dollars over decades destroying her narrative. By the time she ran for president 51% of the country had a negative opinion of her before she said a word on the campaign trail. That’s the playbook. Now ask yourself — where’s the threat today? California. The fourth largest economy in the world. Agriculture, Defense, Hollywood, Silicon Valley, AI. — which is literally the exportation of American culture globally. A politician coming out of California from the left could beat the right decisively. So what do you do? Spend billions destroying the narrative around California. Make it synonymous with crime and homelessness and radical politics. Do it for two or three decades until the brand is toxic. Newsom has an image problem today the exact same way Hillary had an image problem. It was manufactured. Deliberately. Systematically.

Ssh don’t tell them but all the right wing ‘Christian’ grifters complaining about Easter eggs have forgotten that it’s Palm Sunday. Not one of them has mentioned it. Oh dear.

This is Levchyk, the Feline Mayor of Lviv. He lives in City Hall and regularly greets world leaders who come to visit Ukraine. We discussed opening a pet hotel in Lviv for cats (and dogs) displaced from the front lines.

Friendly fire in Kuwait; accidental fire in Iraq; laundry fire on Ford in the Arabian Sea; no official word on F-35; and no confirmation on E-3 Sentry Awacs and KC-135s. The flow of information about war losses is tightly controlled by the Pentagon.
