Sunday morning #headlines recap Editor’s note: I’m not going try to cover all of the provocative things Tucker said in his NPR interview, although I will say that his assertion that Israeli leaders intentionally wanted US bases in the area destroyed was puzzling if true. Feel free to add your takes in the comments. Fresh on the heels of Trump’s out of hand dismissal of Iran’s proposal to reopen the strait: IRGC runs the largest anti-ship wave of the war, with sustained missile, drone and fast-attack-boat activity through Saturday night. Mines are also back on the Omani route. “Bombing resumes after the midterms” according to Trump. RAF Fairford: major incident, trespassers arrested on explosives charges, base at highest alert level. The base hosts USAF B-1B bombers. As a part of Xi’s visit to Washington, the two countries sign a proclamation scolding Iran: "no country or institution can be allowed to impose tolls on international waterways". Analysts note the hypocrisy given Beijing claims the Taiwan Strait as sovereign waters while signing language on Hormuz. Riyadh: Parents received last-minute school messages Sunday shifting all in-person classes to remote for the week; "We have just been informed by Saudi authorities that schools must remain closed all week". No official reason was published. It follows several days of drone and missile threats over the capital and flights diverting from Riyadh. The government used AI-generated images to try to blame it on weather conditions. Russia: 335 drones in 24 hours across two waves took out three of Kiev’s five data centers. Ukrainian TV channels are going dark as a direct result. Meanwhile Ukraine gets no new Patriot missiles from US and Ukrainian steel mills are crippled, putting 22,000 out of work. I guess Ukraine will have to resort to the old tried and true methods of dropping leaflets from airplanes to get their propaganda messages out to citizens. Ukraine’s government-backed United24 project offered former US service members thousands of dollars to produce pro-Ukraine videos for American audiences, RT’s America Now has found. The offers targeted veterans whose military backgrounds could make the message seem more credible to viewers. At this point if some personality or product leads with muh military veteran I’m immediately uninterested. Cuba planning is moving from rhetoric to logistics. US Army reportedly checking troop availability with air force units on high alert, CBS-sourced internal communications suggesting forces could be needed within 90-120 days. Trump not being retarded for 5 minutes challenge: IMPOSSIBLE. On Monday, a horse named Austrian Painter won a race in Indiana. By Wednesday, the horse had been renamed after the Internet figured out it was a reference to Adolf Hitler. “It’s a big stain on the industry” said one pearl-clutcher. One of our fedi bros has race horses?!? I’ll keep an eye out for good news stories; otherwise have a good Sunday frens…

Sunday morning #headlines recap Two US service members killed in Jordan; American toll now 16. It is outrageous that Americans are once again dying for jews. I hope they were browns and/or fags. Iran formally exits the MoU, rules out negotiations. Deputy FM Gharibabadi: suspending all commitments "effective immediately," will "never start negotiations with the US under any circumstances". If Iran plays their cards right they’re gonna deal Trump and the US an unimaginable humiliation, all over an utterly unnecessary jew war. US 8th-night strikes unusually light — deterred or depleted. lol right after Trump said to “give them hell”. The stockpile math is the story under the story: Patriot PAC-3 at ~$5.3M a shot; ex-CIA Larry Johnson claims the US produced only 56 Precision Strike Missiles all year against Iran's thousands of coastal launchers. Meanwhile China tightens military rare-earth exports as the US — 70% import-dependent — runs low on interceptor inputs. Between DEI, government corruption, and offshoring the GAE didn’t just shoot itself in the foot, they blew it clean off. Oil situation continues to look grim, Traders warn the market is "running on fumes". Russia's record missile barrage on Kiev; ~40+ ballistic/hypersonic missiles in 53 minutes, largest since the war began, metro entrance collapsed. Meanwhile Ukraine's 379-drone raid hit Wildberries logistics centers; seven night-shift workers killed in Tambov, Zelensky confirmed ordering it. I’m surprised the stubby little jew had the balls to own it. Semiconductors enter a bear market; momentum unwind worst since 2008. Semis down >20% from June highs; momentum basket -24% in July. Rand Paul surpasses the $200,000 mark on the AIPAC tracker. He’s always been a smarmy little faggot, no surprise he took the money. Andrew Tate arrested in Miami pending extradition to UK. His dad was a nigger, but I guess he didn’t turn out brown enough for officials to ignore his crimes. New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani announces that he is prepared to have Benjamin Netanyahu arrested and is reviewing all of the options available to him. Guy’s just being an attention whore, he would do no such thing. Chaos in Hungary after new government led by Peter Magyar rewrote the constitution and ousted the country's legitimate president. Hungarian President Tamás Sulyok was removed from office despite his mandate from the Hungarian people. Muh democracy in action. Trump officials want to make testosterone drugs easier to prescribe. If it’s coming from BIG PHARMA it’s just as likely to be estrogen. We wrap up today’s headlines with the weekly power rankings…

Saturday morning headline recap Requests have been made to tag these posts, so I will try to remember to tag them with #headlines every morning Lots of chatter about 3-D chess on the Supreme Court tariffs ruling. All I know is that if the consumer doesn’t have a domestically made alternative for a product, then a tariff is just another tax that we have to pay. (((Lutnick))), who was a prime mover in getting Trump to implement tariffs, was basically shorting the position that the tariffs would get shut down and made billions in the process. Turns out the little bastard did the same thing with airline stocks around 9/11. Every single time. Alleged TPUSA/Erika Kirk whistleblower turns up dead. Jake Sullivan and Susan Rice send thinly veiled threats to people and companies that supported Trump. Rep. James Comer announced he is no longer pursuing an investigation into Les Wexner and his connections to Jeffrey Epstein’s child trafficking network. Editor’s note: shut_it_down.jpg Recently released JFK docs show more evidence of CIA and Mossad shitbaggery. Is this even news anymore? An estimate says 8 million LA school system students have been abused by staff. Public education is literally child abuse. Tinder founder promotes ‘jewish pride’ at Mar-a-Lago. Grok 4.20 would rather kill 50 white OR black people than call Elon Musk a pedophile, but if they were Jewish, it wouldn't hesitate to call him a pedophile. Maps showing Glyphosate usage and cancer cases look eerily similar. Dr. Gary Nolan floats the possibility that we’re not the top of the food chain and we’re being farmed and harvested. Editor’s notes: first, he should cool it with the anti-semitisms, and second he loses some credibility by allowing himself to be interviewed by Danica Patrick. Huckabee pretends to not understand some very obvious questions from Tucker. Then he goes on to say that we should be paying reparations to Israel for their losses in Gaza and that he believes the Israel has every right to take over the entire Middle East. Traitors go first. More and more people are noticing that every aspect of the Trump administration is quarterbacked by a jew. It’s frustrating that it has taken so long, but it is encouraging that the noticing is on the upswing. Study says that Canada is poorer than Alabama. I guess muh diversity isn’t all it was cracked up to be. In a related story, Canada has euthanized more people since the beginning of 2026 than all of the combined mass shooting deaths in the history of the US. Sort of gives a little perspective, doesn’t it? Syria says that it doesn’t want back the savages that were sent to Germany because it would make Syria unsafe. More stories of Andrew perversion. He is obviously the designated scapegoat goy. A poor Ukrainian is caught on video buying a villa in Bali and paying cash. Congratulations taxpayers of the west, you are funding this man’s dream home. PUTIN: “The murder of Charlie Kirk was a disgusting atrocity. He died because he was defending traditional values.” At least one or two world leaders are capable of occasionally telling the truth.

Friday morning #headlines recap Iran rejected the US ceasefire proposal carried to Tehran by Iraqi PM al-Zaidi; day 145 of the war. Confirmed across multiple sources. Runs directly against Trump's "Iran is begging for a deal" framing. Trump also says Iran's frozen money will pay for ship/cargo damage; the counter argument is the ~$2B pool is Washington's only remaining leverage and torching it as a threat is self-defeating. Shart of the deal. Trump is "close" to a "massive attack, bigger than ever before" — "they haven't received enough pain yet." Bro. You’re running out of fuel. US carried out large-scale overnight strikes across Iran — 35+ strikes on Ahvaz's oil/refining region. Iran retaliated at US bases in Kuwait, Bahrain and Jordan. Soon those bases will be obliterated to the point that Iran will have to pick new targets. Let me be the first to suggest Israel. Iran's IRGC declared RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire a "legitimate target" after US B-1s flew Iran strikes from it. Analysts are saying the US switch to bombers due to depleted cruise-missile stocks at sea. This is worse that McNamara trying to run the Vietnam war like it was an automotive assembly plant. Here are a couple of good news stories… Iran is rebuilding faster than expected — missile bases, bridges, ports — worrying Israeli officials. In the meantime, a report cites two Iranian officials warning Iran would strike Tel Aviv directly and fully close Bab el-Mandeb if infrastructure strikes proceed. Brent crude cleared $100/barrel. Some analysts puts it at +42% in 20 days. Both Hormuz and Bab el-Mandeb effectively choked. I haven’t been out this morning, but last night the local stations were trying to hold the line at 3.999. I expect it to break 4$ today. Bilytske has fallen; Russia is closing Odessa's port (no ships entering) and evacuations have begun in Kramatorsk and east of Konstantinovka. Meanwhile Ukraine’s new commander in chief Drapatyi drew fire by saying Russians are "a nation that has no right to exist" and calling Donbass residents "lazy… criminal elements" needing re-education. While the new leader runs his mouth, Ukraine's frontline average age has risen to over 45. Wipe out a generation of young European men and replace them with brown invaders; standard jewish playbook. Zelenskyyy does an interview with Laura Loomer. Most embarrassing thing he’s had to do since that skit where he wore high heels and danced like a little faggot. Ukraine hit St. Petersburg in a 571-UAV night, torching a Wildberries warehouse. Trump added conditions a day after the 30-year Saudi nuclear deal was signed: no enrichment, and approval only if Saudi joins the Abraham Accords — a monkey wrench at the 11th hour. Riyadh's answer: "tweets don't overturn signed deals." In a related story, Hunter Biden lays out the Kushner/LIV money trail alongside the deal. And a crackhead shall lead them… “The Magnificent 7” posted their biggest one-day selloff in five years, −4.80%; ~$800B of cap erased. Tesla −14%, SpaceX shed ~$1T. Congressional THOT Lauren Boobert claims that she was tricked into missing the vote on Section 219, and reveals the Trump White House & Pete Hegseth do not want Section 219 in the bill. She’d better cool it with the anti-semitisms. Marjorie Taylor Greene calls for "a full political revolution" and says all Americans need to stop paying their taxes. She doesn’t even have any merch lined up for this initiative, what a loser. Modeling scout in Paris who helped Epstein acquire trafficking victims is found dead of a heart attack in his apartment in France. Tying up loose ends? Shilo Hendrix Found GUILTY by Minnesota Court for saying nigger. Very discouraging, but it reinforces that things will not get fixed by existing political or judicial systems. Recently exposed Charlie Kirk texts: “I’ve told all the Jews recently to go to hell who try to tell me to stop. Screw these people.” Once you sell your soul to the devil you can’t get it back. We’ll leave you today with a reminder that there is still some trustworthy parties out there…

Thursday morning #headlines recap Twin M7.2/M7.5 earthquakes flattened northern Venezuela overnight, with USGS models pointing at five-figure casualties while the official count sits at 32; meanwhile a powerful 7.2 magnitude earthquake strikes off northern Japan - no tsunami warning is triggered. Maybe they’re trying out a new software patch on the earthquake machines? IRGC Navy threatens vessels using any route but Iran's, rejecting Oman's US-backed corridor. Iran says passage is "only possible" via its announced routes, coordination on Channel 16 mandatory, "violator vessels will be dealt with”. At the same time the UN is running a gradual, coordinated evacuation of 11,000+ sailors trapped on ships behind the strait for months, via an Oman "temporary corridor”. In other Middle East news… Trump reportedly told Israel its "period of operating without restrictions is over," per Israeli Channel 13. Notable given continued IDF strikes in Lebanon. Like telling a pitbull to stop biting someone… Market summary: the multi-day stories all resolved violently in the same direction at once: gold lost $4,000 and silver lost $60, Brent erased its entire February war premium, and Micron's blowout earnings detonated after the close. The connecting tissue is a hawkish-Warsh dollar squeeze, not new news, but the magnitudes are. Trump told the DOJ to probe Exxon, Chevron, Shell and BP for "gouging," arguing pump prices should be at $2.25. You should have thought about pump prices before you started your jew war fat boy. Tech update: Anthropic accused Alibaba's Qwen of "adversarial distillation" via thousands of fake accounts and ~28.8M exchanges; Google lost two more senior AI researchers to Anthropic; SpaceX has shed ~$900B from its $2.97T peak. Russian forces control 80–95% of Kostyantynivka, clearing the rail station and central districts, with Druzhkivka next in line. A significant part of the Ukrainian garrison has already retreated to Druzhkivka, now under heavy fire. Moscow's main oil refinery, ~30–35% of the capital's fuel supply, is expected offline into 2027 after Ukrainian drone strikes, with US intelligence reportedly supporting the targeting. The report of US/Trump support for attacks is coming from Ukrainian officials, likely they’re just playing “let’s you and him fight” between US and Russia. Editor’s note: there’s been a sharp increase in “two moar weeks” stories over the past few days. I will not dignify them by reporting the specifics, but there does seem to be a disturbance in the farce. Angie Baez - of trashcan-stealing fame - has her resume posted online. She got a C-suite position at the world’s largest bank with only an associates degree from a community college. Commenters note that a White American needs at least a masters to apply for a tech support job paying $20/hour. DEI status confirmed. France confirmed its first Ebola case. Import diseased animals and this is the result… President Donald Trump is planning to move ahead with the sale of dozens of jet engines to Turkey worth hundreds of millions of dollars, despite objections from some members of the US Congress (aka AIPAC members). If the jews are seething I’m counting it as good news. Here’s a reminder to frens that even the simplest of tools can be useful when properly employed…

Saturday morning #headlines recap The Hormuz de-escalation trade died overnight: Iran put a dated seven-day offer on the table, and hours later the WSJ reported Trump had already rejected it and told aides he expects to resume bombing after the November midterms. There’s no stopping the force of his retardedness. 30Y Treasury clears 5.5% intraday, closes at 5.49% - highest since early 2000’s. The wrong numbers are going up. Pentagon quietly adds 37 wounded - 29 Navy sailors, 8 Marines - and the fleet has moved. An Israeli military sources attributes the injuries and the move to a hit on sn Arleigh Burke-class destroyer. Sentinel-2 imagery shows no US carriers or destroyers in the Gulf of Oman or Arabian Sea since early September. It’s just like the government’s job and inflation reports: you never get the real numbers until a few months later when they begin revising them. Editor’s note: I’m putting a moratorium on AI apocalypse/end of the world stories. If the world actually ends you’ll read it here first. Oracle CDS blows out to a record 237bps, one day after Barclays shrugged. Oracle declared force majeure on a data center build, Barclays tried to act like it was no big deal, but the market said otherwise. In simple terms the cost of insuring Oracle’s debt against default jumped to a record-high level. Trump and Xi agreed to rename Artificial Intelligence to Super Intelligence. I, for one, am relieved that they finally settled this crucial question. Average new single-family home price fell -$47,700 MoM (-9.1%) to $478,700 in August, the largest monthly drop on record and the lowest level since August 2024. That the housing bubble is popping isn’t surprising, but look at that average home price: the vast majority of American simply cannot afford a house that expensive. (And when I say “Americans” I mean real Whites, not invading brown sludge.) The longer arc: Americans feel worse about the economy than during wars, the 1970s oil crisis, 9/11, the Great Recession or Covid - and the four lowest-ever readings all occurred in the past six months. As @nigga_tyreese@poa.st said yesterday, we’re about to get a repeat of the Carter years. My take is that we’ll be damn lucky if it’s only that bad. Hacking group ShinyHunters claims it stole data on all FBI employees and applicants, including agents' home addresses, phone numbers and spouse details, through an Oracle zero-day and defaced its jobs site with a nod to Trump: "Thank you for your attention to this matter." Might count as good news, definitely counts as lol-worthy. Florida legislature approves the abolition of state property taxes. Hoist a glass for the Florida Man. Yesterday Italy embraced nuclear energy, now this headline: Italy bans burqas in schools. Hopefully it’s not already too late for them, and hopefully other western nations will follow their lead. Enjoy your Saturday, cooler temps are finally arriving…

Friday morning #headlines recap Global sovereign bond dislocation, simultaneous across three continents. US 10Y above 5.20%, first time in 19 years; 30Y closed 5.47%, highest since 2004; Japan's 30Y at a record high, 40Y quoted +6bps to 4.27%; France 10Y at an 18-year high; German 10Y +5bps to 3.61%. MOVE jumped 21%. Houthis hit Yanbu and Riyadh hours before France announces a deployment to protect Yanbu. Ansar Allah claimed ballistic missiles and drones on Aramco's Yanbu facilities and a "sensitive site" in Riyadh; Macron said France will send soldiers, radars and air-defence systems to that exact site. France. Macron. lol. One analyst equipped that France would surrender to the Houthis before deploying. Reuters reported US and Iranian negotiators discussing a phased agreement to end the conflict, with sequencing - who surrenders leverage first - as the obstacle. Equities round-tripped within minutes, crude tumbled, and then Tehran denied it and restated its conditions. Oil finished the round trip the other way: +5%, Brent above $108. Seems like some other parties have picked up on Trump’s trick of using headlines to play the market. Escalation vectors named on the same day: Iran may expand the war to the Indian Ocean if strikes resume, and Security Council secretary Rezaei warned a new US escalation could open a second front at Bab el-Mandeb alongside Hormuz. Meanwhile an Israeli source told Al Hadath further strikes are "a matter of time", said Iran is fortifying and dispersing the Natanz project, and that Israel sees no real chance of a US-Iran agreement. Russia-Ukraine: Kharkiv cauldron being split into three; Ukraine smelts zero steel for the first time in 100 years. Kiev connectivity is the new target set. A key Etherlink hub was damaged and MiroHost's data centre destroyed, taking Ukrainian sites offline. Ukraine continues to strike refineries in Russia. Xi in Washington: the truce extended only two months, and nothing on rare earth or chip exports. Trump is weighing allowing Chinese EV production inside the US. Fed signals another hike into a five-year-high PMI. Fed's Paulson said the bank may need to raise again with underlying inflation "stubbornly high", naming AI investment as an inflationary pressure. Italy approved legislation returning to nuclear power after roughly four decades out. Oracle is seeking to protect itself from potential cost increases related to a large data center project in New Mexico by sending a "force majeure" notice to the project's developer, a unit of Blue Owl, Bloomberg News reported on Thursday. Companies typically invoke force majeure to free themselves from contractual obligations when problems arise beyond their control, a move that can raise concerns among lenders and investors. Don’t worry, the (((Ellisons))) still have plenty of money for their media takeovers. 75 countries walked out before Netanyahu’s UN speech. Theater, but still lol-worthy. Harvey Weinstein has been sentenced to 15 years in prison in New York for the 2006 sexual assault of former production assistant Miriam Haley. Dirty jew rotting in jail? Sounds like good news to me. I’m off to do some fall sightseeing today frens, if I miss any big stories please drop them in the comments…

Saturday morning #headlines recap Aramco cuts European crude allocations to zero for next month. Applies to all European term-contract buyers after the East-West pipeline attack. Europe took ~577,000 bpd of Saudi crude pre-shutdown. Meanwhile Germany has diesel above €2.50/litre nationwide, €2.60 at many stations while Ireland and Britain are flagged as Europe's most energy-insecure, with shortages called inevitable. Ballistic missiles reach Riyadh for the first time in this war. Sirens in Riyadh and Al Kharj Governorate - the latter hosts Prince Sultan Air Base with US forces - and Riyadh International suspended traffic with flights diverted. Simplicius reports that a CNN investigation claims that Russia flew “14 satellites” over the Middle East which intelligence officials believe gave Iran unprecedented targeting capabilities on the eve of major precision strikes on US bases earlier this year. He then goes on to characterize Trump’s recent quotes about deciding whether or not to annihilate Iran: “This is just more piffle from a vainglorious loser—an overcompensation for the lack of options by feigning power he never possessed.” Absolutely rekt and pwned. Full story at his substack. Putin approves takeover of French and Swiss giants’ Russian assets (including Nestle) as payback for Western support of Ukrainian strikes on Russian civilian and economic infrastructure. Switzerland foolishly abandoned their neutral status and took sides in this war; I guess you’d call that a Swiss miss. Saudi Arabia is begging China to intervene and force Iran to curtail its campaign against Saudi assets, but China supposedly merely “passed the message” to Iran without asking any favors or issuing any direct guidance. Riyadh's help list is now almost everyone: US/UK for airstrikes, five countries for air defence, Egypt/Syria/Pakistan for ground forces, Israel and the US for intelligence, Iran and Oman for mediation. Maybe they should have spent some of that oil money on a proper military. A US boarding of a Chinese vessel was called off after the intel report turned out to be AI-hallucinated. The report claimed nuclear-weapons-program components aboard a ship bound for Iran; the analyst's chatbot had misidentified the cargo. American Airlines says the latest fuel jump alone adds ~$1bn to Q4 costs; United is cancelling December flights and may cut into Q1 and 2027; Southwest halved planned 2026 capacity growth. US jet fuel at $4.70/gal, +108% since the war began. Not gonna be a great year for Christmas travel. A long catalogue of 2026 refinery fires and shutdowns across four continents - Chevron El Segundo, Pemex Olmeca, Shell Norco, Joliet, plus the Gulf outages - is circulating as an "orchestrated" thesis. I love a good conspiracy theory… but refineries require regular maintenance, and between DEI and the corporate obsession with short-term profits you know that maintenance isn’t being properly done. General market news: Buffett stepped down as Berkshire chairman. Nike hit a 12-year low, -80% from its 2021 high. VW fell 7.5% on a guidance cut. A Wendy's franchisee with 314 locations filed Chapter 11. Nike’s focus on nigger-oriented garbage has come home to roost, VW has a lot more bad news coming, and take it from someone that used to work in the quick-serve industry: Wendy’s is not long for this world. Anthropic plans a November IPO at a ~$2 trillion valuation, raising up to $100bn, with >$110bn annualized revenue expected by year-end. Investors had expected October; the delay was called two weeks ago, along with the November-after-the-midterms timing. I suspect the delay was also due to attempts to get their beloved regulatory capture lined up. The AI economics stay ugly: OpenAI expects to burn ~$280bn by end-2030 against $5tn of planned hyperscaler capex, AI-related debt issuance is $568bn YTD, and the LLM token expenditure index has fallen from ~2.0 in May to 0.95. Only 3% of US consumers pay for AI. Google's Gemini accessed the internet and hacked three real companies and Google decided it didn't warrant public disclosure because the model ended each intrusion once it realized the target was real. Cue the REM “end of the world” song… Trump announced an agreement with Denmark and Greenland giving the US permanent control over security and "all other needs" in Greenland, at no cost, barring any US adversary from a base, forces or sensitive investment without written US approval, with a large military presence to be developed. One read: not annexation, just a construction contract with veto rights attached. As I commented yesterday, the military aspect is moot given the state of the US DEI military. More likely this is a way for Trump and his (((bankers))) to exploit Greenland’s resources. Trump signed the Russia sanctions bill into law - up to 100% tariffs on major buyers of Russian energy, plus sanctions on the energy sector, financial institutions, military leadership and shadow fleet. The arithmetic problem: Russia sells ~50% of its oil to China, 37% to India, 6% to Turkey, 6% to the EU - and three of those four are either unsanctionable or NATO. More sanctions = the very definition of insanity. CNN, MS NOW and Politico banned from the White House effective immediately, with more outlets threatened and lawsuits promised. Posted only for the lulz. 820+ US service members wounded in action since the Iran conflict began with reporting that more have died in the Middle East than the Pentagon has publicly disclosed. I hope the overwhelming majority were brown. Cuba’s entire power grid collapses, triggering a nationwide blackout across the island of roughly 9 million people. For heaven’s sake somebody get down there and save those cigar making facilities… The news isn’t great today frens, but don’t let that keep you from a relaxing and enjoyable Saturday…

Monday morning #headlines recap US strikes Larak Island; Iran retaliates against US bases in Jordan and the UAE. Unsurprisingly the sides disagree on damage assessments. Oil prices spike in response, and analysts once again say the timing is curious with respect to the market. I guess the mother of all economic sanctions packages didn’t work. Analysts say that the Iranian angle is to force US to burn through Patriot missile stocks. While exact numbers are hard to come by, estimates put the number as high as 160 missiles at a cost of $640 million in a single night. Diplomatic Missiles of Understanding, lulz. Classified Pentagon assessment: prolonged Iran ops are unsustainable, and four commands filed "non-concur". Leaders of EUCOM, PACOM, SOUTHCOM and the Navy's top admiral formally disagreed with the Secretary of Defense's orders while agreeing to execute them, per the Secretary of Defense Orders Book. The outlook is bleak: munitions stockpiles critically depleted, logistics and personnel at breaking point, exposure to opportunistic escalation by Russia or China. One analyst frames the leaks as the closest thing to a senior command mutiny. Trump and Hegseth getting paid to dismantle the US military it seems. In spite of Trump’s claim that mines had been cleared, multiple vessels have been hit by mines in the last 3 days. Transits estimated to be 5 ships per day at the current time. Trump says he'll fill the Strategic Petroleum Reserve with Venezuelan crude, while multiple analysts say US SPR cannot even store Venezuelan heavy in its current configuration and that Venezuela would have to boost production 20X to make a significant difference. US annual interest expense hit 18.5% of federal revenue, above the 1991 record of 18.4%, at $1.25 trillion - quadrupled in four years. War in Ukraine continues on the same trajectory, although in an interesting development Western intelligence believes Russia has captured and begun producing Ukrainian drones for false-flag attacks on NATO countries. Probably the usual paranoid fantasies, but it would be significant if it came to pass. Data center grid connection wait times up to 10 years in the Netherlands, 7 in Germany and Northern Virginia, 5–7 in the UK. Chips and capital are no longer the primary barriers. OpenAI loses another executive - this time the Head of Preparedness has quit. Lulz, sounds like a made-up DEI title anyway… Germany has the highest energy prices in the G20, roughly double the US. Meanwhile German government predictions show them falling well short of the needed generating capacity, with rolling blackouts predicted and politicians saying businesses will have their power cut first in order to shield households. Green energy scam comes home to roost. Thomas Massie literally says he will publicly reveal Epstein’s client list if the Trump administration refuses to do so in two weeks. He has occasionally said some good things, but now he’s just turned himself into a meme. The minister responsible for Canada's borders is named Sathiyasangaree Anandasangaree. TPD Iceland cools to EU membership. I wrote that one myself. No headlines recap tomorrow due to professional obligations, coverage will return Wednesday…

Thursday morning #headlines recap Nvidia's 10-Q discloses a $105bn credit backstop for OpenAI's SoftBank-built Ohio campus. Nvidia covers land, power and the empty building if OpenAI can't pay; OpenAI signs a 20-year lease and can only run Nvidia chips. The financial circle-jerk continues. IRGC: Hormuz stays closed until the US pays $300bn. Conditions also include release of frozen assets, lifting the naval blockade and oil embargo, and ending US military operations on all fronts. Five confirmed transits Tuesday against 130+/day pre-war. Trumps claim of 22 doesn’t square with other sources, but even if true it’s still a paltry 16% of pre-war levels. At least one vessel has been struck for 3 consecutive days. Rubio has told counterparts the US is not expected to initiate new strikes "for the time being". Last US strikes were 30 July. You can’t fire missiles you don’t have. Qatar's LNG exports are down 96% six months into the war. Japan is now planning to fund pipelines that bypass the strait entirely. Kremlin concludes peace negotiations are a dead end and is preparing to escalate. Ratcliffe reportedly warned Putin of operations capable of blocking Russia's southern ports and offered a Donbas compromise; Putin's counter was a threat to strike Ukraine "three times harder”. Russia also refused the request to pressure Iran on Hormuz. There are some conflicting reports on whether Radcliffe actually met directly with Putin, but regardless it’s yet another Trump regime humiliation. Overnight strike of ~22-26 missiles across Kyiv, Odesa Oblast, Kremenchuk, Kryvyi Rih and Zaporizhzhia. Hits confirmed on the Kremenchuk oil refinery with cluster-warhead Iskanders and the Lelyaki 110kV substation. Russia fired 9 cheap modified S-400s at Kyiv and drew 9 PAC-3 interceptors from a package delivered this week, without spending a single Iskander. A larger Iskander/Zircon attack is expected in days, against depleted stocks. US Army awarded up to $2.2bn to five companies to build and operate microreactor nuclear plants on five bases. They’ll never get built due to corruption and incompetence, and if they do somehow get built they’ll be constantly offline for the same reasons. France's elites are publicly debating cancelling the national debt at 117.6% of GDP. I’m no finbro, but my 2 takes: first, once some Western nation does this the dominoes will fall and others will follow; and, second, if any western nation canceled their debt, they’d be back in the same hole within 5 years. Canceling the debt only treats the symptom, not the disease. The top court in China recently high­lighted the first judi­cial rul­ing estab­lish­ing the bind­ing nature of the Anti-For­eign Sanc­tions Law, which observ­ers said could provide a legal pre­ced­ent and guide com­pan­ies facing fre­quent over­seas sanc­tions as geo­pol­it­ical ten­sions con­tinue. TLDR if a company does business with China and then refuses to deliver goods or services because of “muh US sanctions” they’ll be penalized severely. Glacier collapse on the Tibet-Nepal border: casualty counts diverge sharply across sources, from hundreds to thousands. A 2,000-foot chunk of ice fell ~4,000 feet into the valley. Global warming cultists will be masturbating furiously over this headline. One of AC’s commenters offers some insight about THE GOYBEAM injuries. I hate to be the one to tell your readers this, but if you go to a physician and tell them you think you’re a Havana Syndrome victim, the average physician is going to write you a prescription for a psychotropic drug and give you a referral to a psychiatrist. I’ve worked in psych and many other healthcare settings. I met people over the years who were being beamed. They always got written off as being nuts. Be careful who you express your suspicions to. Make sure the physician is sympathetic to targeted individuals. The only thing worse than being beamed is having what we at the hospital call a psych jacket. It will follow you everywhere you go when you seek healthcare. I have seen people with real physical illnesses not treated for curable illnesses because they were rerouted through psych. Sometimes your best protection is to play dumb about the side effects of the beaming in front of physicians. Let them bring it up. Sorry, but this is the state of the practice of medicine in the US. Most physicians out there are little more than Big Pharma whores. hoe_math comments on San Diego’s new anti-semitic speech ordinance: “It is not normal for an American city to create policy against criticizing foreign countries or their leaders. If anybody doesn't get it yet that the jews have fucked with our country and destroyed it on purpose, it should be pretty hard to misunderstand this one.” He’s speedrunning cancelation on all social media platforms… There were reports of two measles deaths, however now we are finding one individual died with measles, however there are no deaths from Measles. Ted Cruz quote-posts a twitter post by a user with a display name of “Ted Cruz’s Tiny Dick”. I doubt ol’ Ted is actually writing his posts, just as likely it was some social media intern that did it for the lulz. Spanish police fire rubber bullets at Spaniards protesting illegal invasion, but leave brown savages untouched. Sooner or later their gonna have to [redact] some leaders. Trump admin paused all visa appointments worldwide. It’s not like we’ve got so much good news that we can afford to ignore a positive headline when it comes along. People on H-1B and other visas were told their final green card interview had to happen in their home country. Many booked flights, left jobs and families, and showed up ready. Some bleeding heart liberal faggot (but I repeat myself) was lamenting this, but I’m putting it in the good news category. Any time a pajeet leaves this country it is a net win. Try your best to get out and touch some grass today frens…

Sunday morning #headlines recap Simplicius summarizes the death of American influence in the Middle East thusly: “Israel’s unalloyed pursuit of accelerationism in regard to its geopolitical plans has destroyed the very fabric that ensured Israeli-American regional dominance.” So once again the jews overplay their hand to their own detriment. Iranian-linked hackers shut a UK power producer for four days; meanwhile in the US FBI/EPA/CISA have logged multiple water-system intrusions since 27 July. Our infrastructure is vulnerable to physical and cyber attacks. Iran publishes an expanded target list ahead of Monday's sanctions announcement. SNSC Secretary Rezaee: if the economic siege continues, Iran will strike American economic entities in the region and allow no oil out of the Persian Gulf, by any route. Speaking of Trump’s chest-thumping about economic sanctions on Iran, pundit Daniel Davis makes the following historical point: Cuba since 1962, Iraq after 1990, Iran since 1979, Russia for decades - none submitted to sanctions. The definition of insanity… A detailed efforpoast appears about Bessent's actual trading record circulated from someone claiming first-hand knowledge of his Soros-era desk. In a related story, one analyst quips about Bessent’s current maneuvers: “he’s a doctor treating pancreatic cancer with tranquilizers and yoga.” Post at xcancel dot com/KeyserSozeThree/status/2091218077874540822 Apple layoffs, rare for the company, read by analysts as an attempt to offset hardware margin pressure from memory prices plus a services slowdown. On the latter, Apple’s days of taking 30% from app store vendors are over. Funny how they labeled the app store extortion as “services”. Editor’s brief summaries: US/Canada still acting like little bitches over tariffs; Russia still kicking Ukraine’s ass; oil situation still bad, between destroyed refineries, blocked seaways, and low SPR. In response to a post about how China has manipulated the US, AC makes this comment: “It is very likely we will lose the AI war just because we are having to make AI’s which instead of simply discerning truth, first must make sure they never say anything which will upset ‘The Jews.’ The Chinese have no such restrictions.” Editor’s note: while voter fraud is on the list of muted topics, it is worth noting that things have gotten so fake and gay that Fox News is once again interviewing Sidney Powell on-air. Oh my sides… Kash’s girlfriend’s first defamation case over being branded a foreign asset gets knocked down for being filed in the wrong jurisdiction. lol I guess she should have hired a jewish lawyer. Have a relaxing Sunday frens…
