".. The last few years have been a steady exercise in market humility. 'Oil can’t go negative.' It did. 'Russia will always be a reliable supplier of gas to Europe.' It wasn’t. 'Hormuz is too important to actually stop.' Until it did."
- Morgan Stanley
Oil above $100. Payrolls at -92K. Wages still rising.
Rising costs. Falling employment. Sticky inflation.
The last time all three aligned was the 1970s.
History doesn't repeat, but it sure rhymes.
The first $75,000 of income for every American family should be tax-free.

ABC NEWS: “.. Retired Adm. Mike Mullen, former chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said Sunday that he worries the current war with Iran could drag on for years.”

Screenshot of a post by Acyn quoting Pete Buttigieg criticizing Trump, saying money from the Middle East is going into the Trump family’s crypto fund while Americans are being sent to the Middle East for Trump’s war. A video frame shows Buttigieg speaking.
Pete Buttigieg nails it.

Funny directions on my Lego build. Make sure you select the correct color of “banana”. 😂

They had names. They had beautiful faces. And they had the same dreams as your kids - crushed when American "precision" bombs slammed into their Minab elementary school, killing 175
Don't blame AI for this. Blame the sick humans who see war as a game
My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/iran...
Oil at $91. Payrolls at -92K. Wages at +0.4%.
Rising costs. Falling employment. Sticky wages.
Name the last time all three happened simultaneously.
The 1970s.
The playbook that worked for 40 years just stopped working.

WATCH: “A journalist detained by ICE after reporting on ICE… it’s not hard to understand why her attorney thinks she was targeted.”

Trump says she’ll get “due process” — hardly comforting🤔
I will say it again: There are no moderate Republicans. There are just proud MAGA and sacred MAGA. The scared ones leave. The proud ones stay.
There are a lot of posts out there with the close-up visual of Markwayne Mullin on January 6, but this is a better perspective.
He’s not protecting others; he’s protecting himself and hiding. You can see plenty of people at the entry door, ready to take on the insurrectionists, but not Markwayne.

Never forget.
There's something deeply obscene and broken about the fact that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are bombing elementary schools in an illegal war of aggression, and there's still a sense among the opposition that it has to be explained in terms of gas prices in order to get American voters to care.
Trump made the promise in front of an assembled meeting of Latin American leaders. n.pr/40jmd0z
But Trump said he was supposed to help with the decision.
The lies!
So Trump wants us to believe that Iran bombed itself?
And suddenly MAGA no longer cares about higher gas prices.
In a scathing review, the top US medical journal's editorial board warned that the "destruction that Kennedy has wrought in 1 in office might take generations to repair."
Oil up 36% in a single week.
WTI at $91. Brent above $92.
Qatar's energy minister warning Gulf exporters could shut down production within weeks.
The last time oil moved this fast was the Russia-Ukraine invasion.
The difference? The SPR was full then. It isn't now.
Ask yourself where all that money went? (Spoiler: to those who need it least) — Trump continues to make the rich richer. Heads they win, tails we lose.
Yet we always have money for war and bombs. They don’t care really about the debt and never did.

A lot of us have been saying the people in the Trump administration act like this war is a video game.
The White House troll account confirmed it. 👀
Yes. And we have to talk about this now, because talking about it is the first step to making it seem like a callous crime rather than a surprising emergency.
So immigrants were “taking our jobs”…
but now fewer immigrants means fewer jobs?
The math on their propaganda never works.
Hey Mike Johnson, while you're encouraging people to step down (Tony Gonzalez) why dont you do the same for the pedophile president. Man you are such a weak POS.
😡
