Incredibly radicalizing that you simply invert this to show what’s happened to just about every European and American city.

Port Arthur, Texas was googled a week ago from Israel, and they really, really need American support for this war. It’s existential at this point.

The US lifting sanctions on Iranian oil proves that 30 years of negotiations by and nuclear deals by Iran's reformists couldn't achieve what 20 days of war by Iran's hardliners could. Violence is the language of the enemy and the only thing they understand.

BREAKING: The Strait of Hormuz is no longer closed. It is no longer open. It is something the world has never seen before: a permissioned corridor run by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, priced at $2 million per vessel, payable in yuan. Three ships transited in the last 24 hours. Three. Out of a pre-war average of 60 per day. Total throughput: 310,000 deadweight tonnes. Three percent of normal. Four hundred vessels are waiting outside the strait right now. One hundred and fifty tankers. One hundred and twenty bulk carriers. One hundred and thirty others. Waiting for permission from the IRGC Navy to enter a 5-nautical-mile channel between Larak and Qeshm islands inside Iranian territorial waters. This is how the gate works. A vessel operator contacts approved intermediaries with IRGC connections, submitting full documentation: IMO number, ownership chain, cargo manifest, destination, crew list. The intermediaries forward the package to the IRGC Navy’s Hormozgan Provincial Command for sanctions screening, cargo alignment checks that prioritise oil over all other commodities, and geopolitical vetting. The toll is approximately $2 million per tanker. For a VLCC carrying 2 million barrels, that is $1 per barrel. Preferred currency: yuan. If the vessel passes, the IRGC issues a clearance code and route instructions. Upon approach, VHF radio hail, AIS verification, patrol boat escort. One ship at a time. Through the narrowest channel of the most important waterway on Earth. Iranian crude is still flowing. Approximately 1.1 to 1.5 million barrels per day, mostly to China, at near pre-war levels. Iran’s own oil transits the strait it controls. The blockade applies to everyone else. Iran is simultaneously the gatekeeper and the primary beneficiary. The toll funds the IRGC. The IRGC maintains the gate. The gate generates the toll. The circle is self-sustaining. Now look at what is NOT transiting. Fertiliser. Gulf nations supply 49 percent of the world’s exported urea. Ammonia requires the natural gas that Qatar declared Force Majeure on and that Iranian strikes disrupted at South Pars. Effectively zero fertiliser vessels have received approval through the permissioned corridor. The IRGC is prioritising oil because oil generates revenue. Fertiliser does not. The molecules that feed four billion people are trapped behind a gate that only opens for molecules that fund the gatekeeper. The yuan preference is the structural shift that outlasts the war. Every tanker that pays in yuan instead of dollars establishes a precedent. Every precedent weakens the petrodollar architecture that has governed energy trade since 1974. The IRGC is not just blocking a strait. It is building an alternative payment rail under live fire. The $2 million toll in yuan is not a fee. It is a proof of concept for a post-dollar energy settlement system, stress-tested in the most extreme conditions imaginable: a three-front war with the world’s largest military. The world’s central banks are trapped by the same strait: the Fed cannot cut, the ECB is hiking, the BOJ is tightening. Six countries are rationing fuel. Japan’s 10-year yield hit a 27-year high. Slovenia has QR codes at the pump. South Korea is barring government vehicles one day per week. And behind all of it, 400 ships wait outside a 5-nautical-mile channel for a clearance code from the IRGC Navy, payable in a currency that is not the dollar. Twenty percent of the world’s oil supply. Controlled by a VHF radio call and a yuan transfer. The strait did not close. It changed ownership. open.substack.com/pub/shanakaans…

The more you know.

Jews are not the 'canaries in the coalmine'. Pubescent English girls were, and nobody cared.

We also have an organization where you can dress up like that

More than 75% of Chicago homicides involve black people and 6% involve white people. Since I started posting this data about New York and Chicago, New York has completely hidden their data and Chicago has started doing it as well.

Nadler asked Bondi how many of Epstein's accomplices she has indicted. Her answer: the Dow Jones hit 50,000. Not a joke. Not out of context. She cited the stock market instead of answering. Zero indictments.

Three masked men calmly walk away from 4 burning ambulances in one of the most heavily surveilled places on earth and... nothing. No names released by the police. No photos. Nothing.

@AnthonySabatini The "2nd Amendment is in case the 1st fails" crowd is curiosly silent in this event...🤔

There is no “hate speech” exception to the First Amendment It does not exist

No joke, when I asked why I was being handled by Counter-Terrorism, I was told that my offence of creating legal stickers was ‘terrorism-adjacent’. The biggest threat to the state? White people standing up for themselves.
