How did the SPLC get a half-billion dollar plus offshore endowment in the Cayman Islands? The SPLC has targeted me and others relentlessly, putting us on their “hate watch” list. There was already a gunman who was foiled in a terrorist attack in D.C. who used the SPLC to identify his target. Remember that some of the most unethical Antifa boosters have or had SPLC affiliations including @jason_a_w, @MichaelEHayden, @hannahgais, @CreedeNewton
🇺🇸 U.S. Oil & Gas: The U.S. sits on 46 billion barrels of proved crude oil reserves, with 60% of that locked in dense underground rock. The Permian Basin, which stretches across West Texas and southeastern New Mexico, pumps out 6.6 million barrels a day on its own, more than every OPEC country except Saudi Arabia. Zoom out, and the U.S. is the single largest oil producer on the planet at 13.6 million barrels a day, out-producing both Russia (9.1M) and Saudi Arabia (9.3M). On natural gas, it isn't close: America produced a record 43.2 trillion cubic feet in 2025, roughly a quarter of the world's supply and more than Russia and Iran combined. The U.S. sits on world-class reserves and out-produces every petrostate.
BREAKING: Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and President Emmanuel Macron are set to co-host a summit on the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz this Friday in Paris, Downing Street has announced. trib.al/sxFo53o 📺 Sky 501 and YouTube
🇭🇺 Hungary's election winner Magyar — key statements: - Budapest will continue buying Russian oil - Will not participate in the EU loan to Ukraine - Opposes accelerated EU accession for Ukraine - Hopes the EU will lift sanctions on Russia after the war - Demands Kiev resolve the language law issue and allow Hungary's minority to legally use Hungarian
What did many of us say….Starmer would f**k up the peace deal between the US and Iran. It’s no coincidence that the peace deal collapses after Starmer visits the Middle East. Peace deal sabotage 2.0 from the British Empire and the heads of the City of London. FAFO springs to mind.
From the Supreme National Security Council in Iran: the key take away: "It has been decided at the highest level that Iran will conduct two weeks of negotiations in Islamabad based solely on these principles. This does not mean the war is over; Iran will only accept the end of the war once these principles are confirmed in detail."
@em_Lazzy Yes, Macron reportedly worked with Iran to get multiple european nations to close their airspace to the US in exchange for safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz. France has taken a clear stand against the American people and joined forces with the regime.
Fake MAGA Voices Completely Wrong About Iran. @JimHansonDC joins me on The Real Reason Podcast to push back at all the lies about Iran coming from the so called fake MAGA podcasters.
🚨 Gen X got poked…and the zoomers need to step out the way🔥 We played tackle football on concrete & shot Roman Candles AT EACH OTHER Pain? What’s pain? Y’all poked the wrong generation‼️🤣 GEN X don’t quit 💪🏼🇺🇸
By publishing this explicitly false story, the @FT has officially become tabloid trash for market participants. Despite my direct, on-the-record denial of ever having advocated, explored, or espoused the idea that Chancellor-Bank of England statute serving as a prototype for a Treasury-Federal Reserve relationship, FT journalists manufactured a story with the headline, “Scott Bessent praised Bank of England as model for tighter oversight of the Federal Reserve.” These pathetic journalists have clearly fabricated a story to give the impression that both I and the Trump Administration are setting “about restructuring the relationship… at a time when President Donald Trump has launched an unprecedented assault on the world’s most important central bank.” Their mendacious assertion is based on vague statements from unnamed “financial industry executives familiar with the matter.” In short, FT has literally manufactured an entirely fake policy position for me and the Administration. Other than furthering a maliciously false narrative of dysfunction and divisiveness, it baffles the mind as to why they would shred their already diminished journalistic credibility. Over the past 10 years, I have written more than 20,000 words opining on the Federal Reserve decisions, personnel, structure, and modifications. Nowhere have I ever mentioned this ridiculous notion. The Governor’s letters to the Chancellor have proven to be a useless and perfunctory device. There is much to be said about the storied Bank of England, but any recreation of its operating framework on this side of the Atlantic has never been contemplated. The shameful journalists and editors at the FT are shocking in their meretriciousness, lack of standards, and general intellectual libertinism. It is the worst tradition of Fleet Street to manufacture news rather than report on it. They have brought irredeemable shame to their parent organization, Nikkei Inc., with whom I had previously held excellent relations. In 2025, I laid out a comprehensive 6,000+ word review of each and every policy reform that I believe should be adopted by the Federal Reserve.

Let me help you with the spin... The Strait of Hormuz is not physically closed. Instead, shippers have deemed it too risky to transit. We understand their concern; the Iranian regime is blatantly violating international law and basic morality by targeting innocent ships and killing seafarers who have nothing to do with this conflict. This has to end. The United States military has the means and the motivation to stop this brutal regime’s killing of innocents and end its tyranny over the world economy.
I've watched 5 attempts to modernise Lloyds of London since the 1990s get mired in resistence and inept implementation. Only one can claim partial success, for a very limited function. Maritime insurance is a very complex, niche, specialist market. Singapore has moved it a little. Russia has state insured since 2022. But Lloyds of London is still preeminent because it's not an easy risk assessment and management business to model. The idea that Trump and his administration of Fox talking heads can replicate the Lloyds of London maritime insurance market to avoid an oil crisis is ridiculous. And the day after USS Fretful Abe Lincoln fled strike range for Indian Ocean due to depleted AD, Trump says the US Navy can escort oil tankers through Strait of Hormuz. Nonsense.
The USS Gerald R. Ford is not parked near Iran. It is parked off Israel. And nobody is asking the only question that matters: why. The $13.3 billion crown jewel of the US Navy, the largest warship ever constructed, just positioned itself off Haifa. Not in the Arabian Sea where the Lincoln sits 850 kilometers from Iranian shores loaded for offensive operations. Not in the Gulf where strike range is optimal. Off Israel. Defending Israel. This is not redundancy. This is architecture. Two carriers. Two missions. Two entirely different strategic functions. The Lincoln is the sword, positioned to launch strike packages into Iranian airspace within hours of an order. The Ford is the shield, its Aegis missile defense systems creating an umbrella over Israeli population centers against the retaliation that follows the first Tomahawk. America just split its carrier doctrine into offense and defense simultaneously. That has not happened since the Pacific theater in 1945. But the positioning reveals something deeper than tactics. When Iran retaliates, and every wargame says Iran retaliates, its missiles and drones fly toward Israel. They will fly through the same airspace where a US carrier strike group is now stationed. Every Iranian missile aimed at Tel Aviv or Haifa must traverse the Ford’s defensive envelope. Shooting at Israel means shooting at, around, and through an American carrier group. Iran cannot retaliate against Israel without engaging American naval assets. The Ford’s position makes that physically impossible. The carrier is not defending Israel as a favor. It is positioned so that any Iranian response to American strikes automatically becomes an attack on American forces, triggering the full unrestrained weight of US military response without a single additional political decision required. This is escalation insurance written in steel and seawater. If the campaign goes longer than planned, if munitions run thin in 7 to 10 days, if allies hesitate, the Ford’s position ensures that Iranian retaliation does the political work Washington cannot do alone: it transforms a limited American strike into an act of self-defense that no ally can refuse to support. You do not park a $13.3 billion carrier where the enemy’s return fire will hit it unless you want the enemy’s return fire to hit it. The Ford is not there to prevent escalation. The Ford is there to guarantee that if escalation comes, it comes on terms that make American restraint politically impossible and allied participation politically unavoidable. open.substack.com/pub/shanakaans…
Mexico, the biggest silver producer on earth, is plunging into chaos. Here is why this matters: - Silver was declared a critical mineral for the first time in history - No silver = no AI, no missile production - 50% of US silver imports come from Mexico The US modeled a scenario where Mexico stopped silver exports to the US, which would trigger a GDP decline, raising national security concerns. A few days ago, 10 workers of Vizsla Silver were abducted, 3 were found dead. As a result, mining companies are having trouble attracting employees and are incurring higher security costs. This was before the cartel war.... Now the situation has gotten worse. - Silver transport is disrupted - Costs are rising across the board - It's getting harder to attract employees This could resemble the doomsday scenario the US modeled. All of this is happening in a market which has been in deficit for 5 consecutive years, with COMEX inventories getting drained at an accelerating pace. The world is in desperate need of silver and the biggest supplier is at war.
