@thebigbluetree @DeItaone My comment was specific the news. STRC position relative to the collateral improved.

@thebigbluetree @DeItaone The converts are senior to STRC.

@hunterhhedge @systemupdate_ @ggreenwald @RepThomasMassie Prove it

@systemupdate_ @ggreenwald @RepThomasMassie Trump wanted him gone as early as March you doofus. Greenwald is a foreign pervert.

💣 "That was when they BOMBED Iran!" Clay Travis tries to tell @ggreenwald that Trump wanted @RepThomasMassie out of Congress BEFORE he bombed Iran. There's just one problem: Trump's advisor, James Blair, only tweeted AFTER we bombed Iran. Receipts here:

@APompliano Only one dude in the background. Women do all the shopping? How sexist! 😂

"We are going to use the power of government to lower prices and make it easier for New Yorkers to put food on the table." - Zohran Mamdani I would love for this genius to point to one example of the government lowering prices on anything in history.

@KFILE Typical CNN hack

Brian Christine, an Alabama urologist who was confirmed last year as Assistant Secretary for Health once hosted a podcast called "Common Sense," where he claimed Covid vaccines didn't prevent disease or transmission, suggested George Soros and the World Economic Forum may have used the pandemic to shut down small businesses, urged listeners to watch the debunked election fraud film "2000 Mules," and said he opposed abortion even in case of rape or incest.

NEW: The health official who led the public response to the Hantavirus outbreak has little background in public health and previously was a penile implant specialist who hosted a podcast where he questioned the 2020 election and compared the Biden administration to Nazi Germany.

@MasterJoeBWon @alexstein99 He votes to keep adding debt our children can't pay. Seems like a rational person not a snake.

@alexstein99 He votes with democrats so idc what you clowns say or do he’s a fuckin snake

Don't take this as a sign that the race is over....the battle for Kentucky has just begun

@noone12442 @WSJ This sounds like it was written by a 7 year old boy.

@SeoulCrusher11 @Bitcoin_Teddy "Average Ivy League grad" They all don't go to Wall Street, law school or Meta

@Bitcoin_Teddy Except it's not true. Ivy League graduates have statistically much higher earnings than an oil driller

Palantir CEO Alex Karp on Zohran Mandani: “The average Ivy League grad voting for this mayor is annoyed their education is not that valuable, and that the person who knows how to drill for oil has a more valuable profession” “I think that annoys the fuck out of these people”

@Vingilot542 @KobeissiLetter You are a buzz kill

@KobeissiLetter And the first month of the war with Iran led to an increase in fuel costs for Americans of $8.4 Billion. If the news is celebratory, it's covering for something unsavory.

BREAKING: President Trump says the US government is now up over $30 billion since he decided to buy Intel stock, $INTC, in August 2025. "I'm very proud of that company," Trump says.

@angertab Shawn Ryan is a good man. Find another way to get attention.

Why is Shawn Ryan a spineless grifting coward attempting to paint me as a psychopath who produces "brain rot" and "dumb" content? It's simple. Facts hurt his feelings when @GBNT and I called him out for putting out mindless slop. 🧵 1 of 6

@nettermike Now compare this to a shipping map just before the start of hostilities, so we can see if your map is just normal shipping or a real change.

Can we just take a second here and admit something that the regime media and the foreign policy geniuses in Washington will never say out loud? President Trump just dropped the hammer on Iran—and it’s not just tough, it’s brilliant. Absolute chess move. After Tehran laughed in our face and refused to play ball on the terms we laid out—no more nuclear games, no more shaking down the world for passage through the Strait of Hormuz—Trump didn’t blink. He announced a full naval blockade of the Persian Gulf. No ships in, no ships out. And here’s the part that should have every oil trader and every globalist suit sweating through their overpriced suits: he’s redirecting those tankers straight to the Gulf of America. Buy American oil. Pay in U.S. dollars. End of story. Why is this genius? Let me break it down like the simple truth it is. First, it ends the extortion racket without sending a single American boot into another Middle Eastern quagmire. Iran thought they could turn the world’s most important oil choke point into their personal toll booth. Wrong. Trump just flipped the script: you don’t control the flow anymore. We do. The same Navy that’s been babysitting the planet for decades is now finally working for us. No more free security for countries that hate us while they get rich off our protection. Second, it supercharges American energy dominance. We’re sitting on more oil and gas than anyone else on Earth. Block the Gulf, prices spike everywhere else, and suddenly every country that needs crude—Europe, Asia, whoever—has one logical place to go: right here. Gulf of America terminals firing on all cylinders. American workers. American profits. American dollars. The petrodollar doesn’t just survive; it gets a shot of adrenaline straight to the heart. While the rest of the world scrambles, we’re printing money and telling our enemies to pound sand. Third, it exposes the whole rotten global order for what it is. For years, we’ve been told we have to play nice, subsidize everyone else’s defense, and let hostile regimes dictate energy prices. Trump just said: no thanks. This isn’t “escalation.” It’s accountability. Iran wanted to play pirate in international waters? Fine. Now they get to watch their economy choke while American energy booms. China and India want cheap oil? Better start buying it from the country that actually produces it instead of funding the mullahs who hate us. The usual suspects are already screaming about “warmongering” and “oil prices” and how this is all so very complicated. Spare me. The complicated part was pretending America wasn’t the strongest kid on the block. Trump just reminded everyone—especially our adversaries—that we don’t have to beg or bribe or negotiate from weakness. We set the terms now. This is what America First actually looks like when it’s executed by someone who means it. No forever wars. No blank checks. Just raw, unapologetic leverage that puts American workers, American energy, and American strength first. And the best part? The Iranians are the ones who forced his hand. They chose this. Trump just made them regret it. God bless the guy. In a town full of people who couldn’t negotiate their way out of a wet paper bag, he just reminded the world who runs the table.

@David18615378 @JoeSquawk @KeithOlbermann @CNBC David...your mom is calling you

@JoeSquawk @KeithOlbermann @CNBC lol what a boomer ass mentality Just because you’ve stayed at the same job for years doesn’t mean you’re good at what you do. What a conflation Everyone knows you are tight with the higher ups. That’s why you still have your job. It’s not because you’re good on morning tv

It's time. @cnbc has to fire @JoeSquawk Kernen. His mental and ethical deterioration is complete

@Spaceball_One @TaraBull That device is a counter-drone (anti-UAS) weapon carried by Secret Service protective detail.

@TaraBull What’s this thing?

MAHA 💪

@DPR199 @_The_Prophet__ Prove it

@_The_Prophet__ Hes hated in Ireland by most people. You are making assumptions here about things you don’t know enough about and you know it

⚡️This government is done. The timeline is the only question. The €505 million package was the government’s best move and it was irrelevant within hours. That tells you something fundamental about where the energy is. The money was calibrated to end a fuel protest. But by Sunday evening this isn’t a fuel protest anymore. McGregor calling for dissolution of the Dáil, Sinn Fein tabling no confidence, a national strike called for Monday morning. Three simultaneous vectors aimed at the same target. The government is trying to put out a fire that has already moved to a different building. “Dáil 34 WILL BE DISSOLVED.” He named the parliament by number. That’s a political objective stated plainly by someone with more reach than every Irish media outlet combined. The government has no counter to this. They can’t outspend it because the demands have moved past money. They can’t discredit him because he’s more popular than any of them. They can’t ignore him because the entire country is reading it. The real thing nobody wants to say: the liberal democratic model of governance assumes that the people who run the physical economy will always keep running it regardless of what policies get imposed on them. Ireland just proved that assumption wrong in six days. The administrative class governs at the pleasure of the productive class, not the other way around. That truth has been obscured for decades by complexity, by financialization, by the comfortable distance between policy and consequence. The Iran war closed that distance overnight. Diesel went up 70% and suddenly the relationship between the people who make decisions and the people who drive trucks became very simple and very clear. What happens tomorrow depends on turnout. If shops actually close and streets actually fill, Martin is governing a country that has already moved on without him. The no confidence vote becomes a formality. Not because the numbers flip but because the legitimacy is already gone. You can’t govern people who have stopped consenting to be governed by you. That’s what Ireland looks like right now.

@opinion @JavierBlas Nice maps but other than that...I learned nothing from this post

This map shows the future of oil. @JavierBlas explains how the Strait of Hormuz could be changed forever 🎥

@_The_Prophet__ This entire post is a Straw Man

⚡️A full-scale ground invasion of Iran would be a nightmare. That is real. The country is too big. The terrain is too punishing. The population is too large. The nationalism would be too strong. The regime may be hated by many Iranians, but foreign boots on Persian soil would fuse a lot of that society against the invader fast. Any army dumb enough to try to fully occupy Iran would be volunteering to inherit a giant burning machine. So the main point is true. History, geography, scale, and political reality all scream the same answer: do not try to conquer Iran. Where this is overplayed is in the move from “a full invasion is insane” to implying that any serious ground operation is therefore absurd. That leap is too broad. A giant occupation and a narrow mission are not the same thing. Holding Tehran is one thing. Touching one island, one nuclear node, one corridor, one temporary objective is something else entirely. That distinction matters. So the real picture is narrower and meaner: No smart actor wants to own Iran. A smart actor may still want to slash pieces off its leverage. That can mean air destruction, proxy dismantlement, economic strangulation, maritime reopening, nuclear denial, elite decapitation, narrow raids, island pressure, or selective seizures. That is a completely different war than “conquer Iran.” My deepest read is this: Nobody serious wants Baghdad 2.0 on Persian steroids. What serious planners want is a smaller objective set: break the regime’s ability to threaten, force it into a smaller future, and stop short of inheriting the whole corpse. That is the actual game. So bottom line: Invading Iran to occupy it would be one of the dumbest military decisions imaginable. Breaking Iran’s leverage without occupying it is a completely different matter. That second path is the one that has been taking shape the whole time.
