“China is very happy that I am permanently opening the Strait of Hormuz. I am doing it for them, also - And the World. This situation will never happen again. They have agreed not to send weapons to Iran…” - President Donald J. Trump

Here Mike Johnson is yet again urging that the the law used by NSA to spy on Americans without warrants be renewed with no limits of any kind. **Just months before becoming Speaker,** he told me nothing was more urgent than reforming it, and its abuses "keep me up at night."

COMBATE |🇵🇷
COMBATE |🇵🇷@upholdreality·
Lavrov in Beijing, after two days of talks with Wang Yi, laid out what he calls the real American project: "dominating global energy markets" -- pursued through whatever pretext is handy. "The rules were set by none other than the West -- free competition, presumption of innocence, sanctity of property. All of it thrown in the trash." Then the case studies. Venezuela: "First they announced Maduro had to be dealt with as the main drug lord. Now nobody mentions drugs anymore. Now they say drugs come from Mexico. We took Maduro -- the oil is ours." Iran: "They planned exactly the same thing. President Trump said more than once he was ready to take Iranian oil. Now the Strait of Hormuz is blocked -- never blocked in 45 years before the US and Israel attacked." The motives: "For Israel, the unwavering conviction that Iran must be destroyed. The second task is, again, the oil markets." Russia: "The Trump administration is extending every Biden sanction. Lukoil and Rosneft have been pushed out of every international project." "We have no illusions. This goal is being actively pursued -- Venezuelan oil, Iranian oil, Russian oil." The closing line: "By the time they're ready to talk business, there may not be much left to offer."

Notice how China never talks about destroying America, they just want to sell us stuff. Meanwhile psychopath Americans constantly talk about destroying China China doesn’t even care about exporting their ideology around the world like America does Who is the true threat to humanity? Every single person in the world should be siding with China over the bloodthirsty Epstein regime in the west
HOT SPOT@HotSpotHotSpot

🇺🇸🇨🇳 Senator Rick Scott says a hes ok with destroying the global energy market as long as it cripples China’s economy: “I think blocking the Strait of Hormuz is fine from my standpoint If no oil ever goes to China again, and their economy is destroyed, that would be a really wonderful day for me.”

Killing negotiators is a Zionist tradition (violating millennia of civilized customs). The problem is that they imposed the practice on the Trump administration.
Furkan Gözükara@FurkanGozukara

The UN mediator proposed that Palestinian refugees had the right to return to their homes in 1948. The very next day, Zionist operatives ambushed his motorcade in Jerusalem and assassinated him. They literally murdered a UN official to stop peace.

Business is booming for Chevron and Shell, who are sinking their claws deeper into Venezuela as we speak with fresh deals. There's even talk of moving Venezuela's gas now. The US hostile takeover of global energy continuing as planned.. for now.

A student directly challenges Vice President JD Vance on the impossible economic reality for working class Americans who do not come from wealthy families. Vance coldly dismisses their struggles, arrogantly telling struggling citizens to stop playing the victim.

Lavrov to Xi on the "military turn" of international poltics: Russia and China play the role of stabilizers for the world, the global majority, which does not want problems or turbulence.

@Aaron_Good_ As a music journalist in the 1990s, I definitely saw and heard the plug being pulled on Music That You Might Learn Important Things From by mid-1990s. I don't mean that Billy Corgan theory of 'they killed rock!' But they definitely stopped signing Troublesome Loudmouths.

This is another example of why I suspect that the US 'deep state' made the music industry become de-commercialized and recommercialized in a less democratic way. It seems that a working class musician could not come up in the 21st century and be like Kurt Cobain/John Lennon.

Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam on Israel: "I swear to god there's some people out there just ready to kill and go across borders and take over land that doesn't belong to them, and they should get the fuck out. We don't want to give them our taxes to drop bombs on children. No more!"

"Negotiations" in US English means "we want a Chevron deal". When that doesn't work they go back to bombing and piracy. It's the Chevron Way® (yes, that's actually their slogan lol)

To state the obvious: most Russian oil exports go to China, and mostly by sea, not land. The imp stuff like Urals leaves the Baltic ports that the US/NATO are crippling. So when the US pirate or sink a Russian tanker there's a statistically good chance of hitting China's oil and they know it.
Richard Medhurst@richimedhurst

For months, the US/NATO have been targeting Russian oil and gas ships across the planet. In the Caribbean. In the Arctic. In the Baltic. In the Black Sea. In the Mediterranean. In the Indian Ocean. All the way to Senegal, even. The blockade on Iran is part of a larger strategy.
