US taking hostages
takes aim at "enemy mouthpieces"
Fox News was just talking about Soleimani’s niece and grand niece getting arrested by ICE: “Both were granted asylum in 2019 under the Biden administration.”
The question of who was actually president from Jan. 2017- Jan. 2021 continues to perplex Trump supporters.
She had me at "massive amounts of plastic surgery."
potentially up to 3M barrels per day back online, assuming swift resumption of normal business
but contextually could also mean that the US just lost Iraq's Sunni coded proxy war on Iran that started in 1980
if Iraq takes the deal -- if it is even a viable deal -- it takes the side of Shia co-religionists in Iran

seems the pattern of daring and successful rescue of downed US pilots continues
we're really good at operations and tactics

seems the pattern of escalation by both sides continues
the more the US and Israel try to take down Iran, the more Iran will try to take down the whole region
amazing rescue

- Markets appear stable on the surface, but underlying stress is building across interconnected commodity chains—oil, gas, petrochemicals, fertilizers, helium, and logistics—raising the risk of a systemic breakdown.
- The key shift is from pricing risk to deliverability and access risk, with supply chains losing flexibility and physical shortages beginning to emerge beneath still-functioning paper markets.

A very hinged president. Everything is under control and going according to plan.
Trump is about halfway to taking Shahada on that post, amazing that he picked Easter Sunday to do it
dropping some nukes to cover his second biggest mistake would be very Trumplike
Trump wants us to know he's considering it
US nuclear doctrine used to revolve around first strike/no first strike. Now expanded to president undergoing rage spiral/psychic collapse.
