BREAKING: Iran rejects Trump’s claim today that a deal is “very close” and that Iran is “interested” in signing it, with an Iranian official telling CNN that Iran “has no objection to talking with the US,” anymore, and the reason for Trump’s call to Netanyahu to stop the planned much larger third Israeli attack on Iran today was not any imminent agreement or ceasefire like Trump claimed.
Re We Should Not ‘Integrate’ Our Military with Any Foreign Nation!
A long time ago I worked with a guy from Poland who was in the Polish military. He told me that the USA was an Israeli colony. I guess he was right.

That thought crossed my mind. If so I hope the wrath is ours or God’s in the end.
Morning Goldie
True. Unfortunately, we no longer abide by the Constitution and we don’t have a Supreme Court that upholds it.
We are a semi-facist oligarchy run by a president and Congress that are captive to a foreign country and trans humanist tech oligarchs that intend to create the world’s greatest surveillance state.
Hope for the United States died in 2026.
Now prepare for wrath.

I’m not pointing out another stock, that said they’re likely talking about Fervo energy case if anyone reading this wonders what company their talking about that uses thermal heat but the unintended consequences of the war with Iran.

Our constitution wrote by smart men will absolutely not allow a handover or allegiance of our military to another country by either President or Congress.
Space X
Seems I and a few others got the numbers badly wrong….Musk is looking to raise @ $ 75 Billion, which would give Space X a valuation of $ 1.75 to $ 2 Trillion….he is not raising $ 1.75 Trillion plus….and the IPO has yet to have a hard date…but looks like late June…..so all that selling was note necessarily down to Space X…especially as there is no hard date yet…

yes, I hope you’re right too, but it sure seems like they’ve had a lot of successful attacks on their neighbors and have done a lot of damage to U.S. bases in the region with many of them uninhabitable. 15 U.S. servicemen dead, over 500 wounded.
I agree with you. Any attacks on oil infrastructure in the region must be met with total destruction of their oil production capabilities. Trump is trying to keep the oil flowing around the world. He should have never done this, it was poorly planned and he was duped by Netanyahu and Lady Lindsey Graham and his staff – Suzie Wiles, etc. However, now he’s in it, so if they do that, he has to respond in kind – on steroids.
It’s already too late to save the world from the coming shortages and economic collapse.
Soon, Congress will be turning over our military to Israel. Will Trump sign off on it?
If so, it will mark the end of the American empire.

here’s hoping you’re right.
Maddog … I don’t know much about Iran’s remaining capability, just that it’s much less than it was.
The Hormuz Letter
@HormuzLetter
BREAKING: Iran says it has now fully blocked the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, along with the complete closure of the Strait of Hormuz, with the next step being strikes on oil, gas and energy infrastructure of US-allied Gulf countries in response to today’s Israeli strikes on the Petrochemical Complex, per a source close to Iran’s Ghalibaf.
Buygold and Maddog
I’m surprised the US and Israel aren’t bombing the crap out of Iran this morning! I guess it’s Israel being attacked but not US targets at this time. I just woke up so haven’t seen much so far.
Re Iran
That Hormuz letter, is making far too much of Iran’s capability…..when all this started Iran was sending 100’s of missiles/drones a day…now they are lucky if they get 10 away a day….as soon as a Missile takes off, or even before, the site gets blasted…end of site/launcher.
I seriously doubt they get a penny in Tolls, as every ship will get checked by the US Navy and then how does the money get to them, all foreign banking is shut down, they would have to move the money by van…but from where to where. Meanwhile they have zero other income and Tousi is saying there are no signs of the foreign mercenaries in Iran, which suggests they may have gone back home, due to not being paid.
And now the students are getting back onto the streets…..my guess is the end is coming fast.
Maddog 7:54 The world needs to understand this.
A republic is a representative system where power is held by the people and their elected representatives, governed by a constitution.
Nice bounce for the SM – hard to believe it continues to fall for the headlines
I will say, it’s good that Israel hit the petrochemical plant. It seems that the US sort of laid off a lot of those type of installations. That might be what it takes to really end this thing. I don’t know.
Israel won’t stop in Lebanon though and Iran continues to say they will defend it, so I don’t know what’s really changed.
Nice bounce for Bitcoin. No bounce for gold. Typical. Hoping silver bottomed overnight, but hard to see that if gold keeps breaking down.

Re Platt…he doesn’t have to anything more…he has shown the World just how bent the Dems are…..job done……..hell i even picked up on it.
Trump and co will shove this down every Dems throat….they as of now have zero democratic credibility.
Ferrett
More like they slow played and dropped him in third place. He will leave the state so he said his kids won’t have to grow up seeing naked zombies in the park and not put another dime in California. lA will go the way of Venezuela if it doesn’t burn down first. The whole state will be affected because Newscum drove the oil companies out. This is also a result of open borders.
You know I heard in one of Armstrong’s videos that Mc Cain was the one bringing up and pushing the climate change. The reason was he was after depleting oil money to weaken Russia, he was another neocon.

But the Chinese need the oil and gas for manufacturing.

It’s the little island nations that are very vulnerable, and other developing countries that rely on Diesel generators.
Buygold, same here. Closed six refineries in the last 25 years. Only two left.
