Just Watching the BS

@ExMachina498 @N65Michelle @denyeverything7 @ExxAlerts No but Karen Bass is costing everyone in LA money with her incompetence. There is no case to be made for Bass

@N65Michelle @WatchingBs @denyeverything7 @ExxAlerts So? Has that come out of your pocket?

ALERT: LA mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt fires back against Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass after a reporter asked him if being a “reality TV star” is hurtful for his campaign. “That was from 20 years ago. If we look at what Karen Bass was doing 20 years ago, she was in Cuba learning how to make bombs with the people who would then go bomb Capitol Hill.”

@denyeverything7 @ExxAlerts He has NOT destroyed Los Angles

@ExxAlerts What has Pratt done in the past 20 years?

@ScottPresler @RepFine Sickening what is the point in a majority. Everyone knew Thune was the worst choice for Majority leader. He is 100% owned by the left.

@RepFine Thank you for making this public. Americans, how does it make you feel that the Senate is going on vacation & refusing to pass legislation that 84% of you agree upon?

Looks like Leader John Thune is on his way out of town with his private escort, as the SAVE America Act gets left behind. This is very disappointing. I am willing to stay in Washington as long as it takes to get the job done.

@StartbyLoving @sandrajaniga @Oilfield_Rando @grok how long is Ice funded?

@WatchingBs @sandrajaniga @Oilfield_Rando They did cave. Border Patrol is NOT funded. And now the Dems know GOP will cave if they hold out long enough and will push it even farther next time.

So Trump took away all of the Democrats’ leverage and Thune still folded on funding ICE? Amazing.

@sandrajaniga @Oilfield_Rando ICE is already funded. The Democrats want to remove funding. They wanted to shrink their budget because it’s already filed through 2029. The Republicans did not cave. There was no need to find out because it was already done.

@Oilfield_Rando Schumer controls the Senate and Thune is his boy toy.🇺🇸

@GuntherEagleman @grok was ice. Founded in the big beautiful bill?

🚨 NEW: Senate passes last-minute DHS funding bill, leaving out ICE and CBP. John Thune and Senate RINOs once again sold out and bent the knee to the DEMOCRATS.

@SenWarren So do nothing about the hundreds if billions in waste and fraud

Today, I'm introducing my wealth tax — and more than 50 members of Congress are joining me. It’s time for the government to start working for American families, not just the ultra-rich.

@libsoftiktok @grok is this real?

Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow who’s from Hong Kong tells ICE to stay out of Toronto “Stay out ICE! We do not need you here.”

@flak_henry @_10delta_ Energy demands will skyrocket in the next few years. Renewable are a joke

I don't have time to play whack-a-mole with the trolls-half of whom are clearly bots or paid shills. The reality? Oil and gas won't vanish overnight, but the vector of change is undeniable. Between the shift to renewables and AI-driven efficiencies, fossil fuels are losing their grip. Doubling down on oil dominance to expand an empire is a 20th-century mindset—it might yield short-term gains, but history will prove it’s a dead end..

3 weeks ago I argued the US goal in Iran is to seize the global oil spigot. Venezuela in January -> Iran in February. Neutralize every supply channel outside the dollar system within 90 days. Achieve a compliant successor government and complete energy dominance. The oil thesis was the obvious layer. However, when you zoom out & view the last four years as a single sequence rather than isolated geopolitical events, the architecture of the grander US plan becomes visible. 1st was Europe, which laid the groundwork. The Ukraine conflict provided the justification for sanctions that collapsed Russian pipeline gas from 150 billion cubic meters to 40. Then Nordstream was destroyed, which rewired the entire European energy system permanently. The US went from supplying 28% of Europe's LNG in 2021 to 58% by 2025, exporting a record 111 million MTs, the 1st country in history to break 100 MT. Europe was transformed from a customer with options into a captive market now purchasing its survival in USD. 2nd was Syria. The fall of Assad severed the critical node connecting China's Belt & Road Initiative to the Mediterranean. The trilateral railway linking Iran, Iraq & Syria, designed to bypass Western maritime chokepoints, was completely destroyed. This isolated Iran geographically & cleared the path for what came next. 3rd was Venezuela. In January the US effectively took control of the world's largest heavy crude reserves. The US Gulf Coast has the most advanced refining complex on earth, specifically built for heavy sour crude. Phillips 66, Valero & the rest are now positioned to process hundreds of thousands of barrels of Venezuelan crude daily. The US captured a massive strategic reserve & solidified its position as the dominant exporter of refined petroleum products, an industry worth $110 billion in 2025 alone. Venezuela & Iran were the two major oil supply channels that existed outside the dollar system. Both produce heavy crude sold primarily to China & evaded US financial supervision. Both now being neutralized within 90 days, which leads us to.. 4th is Iran & the Middle East energy shock. Israel struck Iran's South Pars gas field, the world's largest natural gas reservoir. Iran retaliated against Qatar's Ras Laffan, the single largest LNG facility on earth, responsible for a fifth of global supply. QatarEnergy's own assessment is that 17% of export capacity is gone and recovery will take up to 5 years. The Strait of Hormuz is closed. European gas prices spiked 70%. Asian spot prices doubled. The only remaining scaled supplier? The United States. If Iran falls & a successor government is installed that the US controls or influences (the Delcy model described weeks ago) then roughly 40 to 45 million barrels per day of global production out of 103 million is effectively under US control. OPEC becomes irrelevant because the US coalition is now the marginal producer. Now add the gas dimension & it goes beyond oil. This war is solidifying the petrodollar system as it evolves into a hybrid petro/LNG-dollar. The old system was built on Saudi crude priced in USD. The new system is built on American crude plus American gas from the Gulf Coast, with no alternative supplier of comparable scale. The dependency is deeper because LNG infrastructure requires long term contracts & regasification terminals that lock buyers into supply relationships for decades. Europe & the Pacific allies (Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, etc.) cannot pivot away as there is nowhere left to pivot to. They're now locked into the US energy system. The market confirms this. DXY went from 96 to 101. Gold down ~20% from its January all time high. Bitcoin down 20% on the year. Brent above $100. European & Asian institutions are liquidating precious metals and crypto to buy dollars because they need dollars to buy the only remaining scaled energy supply. The world is selling its gold to buy American energy in American currency. The dollar is now being weaponized through energy dependency. The structural repricing is happening regardless of how the conflict resolves. But the US grand strategy goes deeper.. Artificial intelligence is a physical industry. It runs on power and chips. Data centers require massive uninterrupted baseload electricity, primarily provided by natural gas. Semiconductor fabrication requires helium & rare earths. By choking the Strait of Hormuz & crippling Middle Eastern LNG & helium production, the US is systematically degrading China's ability to power its data centers & fabricate semiconductors at scale. The US is energy self sufficient, especially with newly captured Venezuelan reserves & expanding Gulf Coast capacity running on domestic gas. On the other hand, China is import dependent & every joule it imports effectively now transits chokepoints the US Navy controls.. Iran was the Belt & Road's overland energy bypass, the corridor that allowed China to mitigate the Malacca Trap. With Iran neutralized that corridor is severed. China faces a world where its compute infrastructure competes for scraps on a depleted global LNG market, while American data centers run at full capacity on domestic energy. Russia is next in the sequence. A post-war Iran reopening under US influence competes directly with Russia for the same refineries in China & India at lower cost. Iran's production costs are lower. Russia loses its last structural advantage in heavy crude & its economic lifeline. Additionally, under the Iran war cover, Ukraine has been opportunistically destroying Russian energy infrastructure & all signs point towards Russia being at the end of the line. The message from Washington becomes very simple: we dismantled two regimes in three months, your economy is about to get crushed, sign the Ukraine deal. Then Trump sits down with Xi holding every card. Complete energy dominance. The hybrid petro/LNG-dollar fortified, Iran cleared, Russia cornered, & China facing the Malacca Trap fully closed with no remaining energy bypass. Israel & the GCC are absorbing the kinetic cost of a conflict whose primary beneficiary, counter to the mainstream narrative, is actually America (First). Qatar offline for 5 years reprices the entire global gas market in favor of US exporters for the remainder of the decade. The Gulf states face years of rebuilding. Europe faces its 2nd energy crisis in four years. Sure, the average American might face temporary moderate inflation & higher gas prices. But if you are the architect of the US empire & you view the rise of China & Chinese ASI as an existential winner takes all scenario, the collateral damage is acceptable cost. Whoever controls the energy corridors controls the monetary system. Whoever controls the monetary system & the energy supply simultaneously controls the compute infrastructure that determines which civilization builds ASI first. The US is seizing all 3.

Joe Scarborough: “My wife lost her birth certificate so she won’t be able to vote. We can’t find it.” He says the SAVE Act could get his wife, Mika, “kicked off the voter rolls” over not having the original document.

@ScottPresler your efforts are very much appreciated

Sometimes, I wonder why I do this work. I wonder why I work so hard to elect Republican majorities into office & — when we are in power — our very elected officials don’t wield or harness that power. I wonder why I lose sleep, miss family vacations, & put my personal life on hold, so wealthy Senators can go on paid vacations after not achieving the very promises they campaigned on. Sometimes, I wonder if they truly care about us & if they actually want to represent the will of the very people that elected them into positions of authority. I will tell you this: if the Senate ultimately does not pass the SAVE America Act, I will use all of the energy, hustle, & organizing efforts we used to elect these Senators into office as tools to peacefully & respectfully defeat them in their upcoming elections.

@JBPritzker What would be the problem with having ICE at polling stations. Illegals have never voted so it’s irrelevant. No issue, right?

Donald Trump’s plan to steal the 2026 midterm elections is already underway.

@EthanLevins2 @grok is this complete bullshit ?

The U.S. has bombed 498 schools and 281 medical facilities in Iran so far. How are these military targets? Who the hell is approving this?

@wrathofgnon This is all very toxic for the left. This is a live comparison of Socialism vs Capitalism. In real time you are seeing what works. Socialism is a cancer for society. Capitalism is the cure and El Salvador is the proof.

Any country that doesn't replicate what El Salvador managed in mere months is telling the world their only purpose is to protect criminals and terrorize law abiding citizens. They are themselves criminals.
