Product of Louisiana public education, yet progressive and pro science. I’m also big into cryptography and decided Bitcoin was freedom tech in 2012. It remains a good idea.

A U.S. Air Force KC-135 refueling aircraft has crashed in western Iraq with a crew of six. No confirmation on their status, but it is highly unlikely they survived.

Prior to this crash, nine U.S. service members had died in the War in Iran.

Yet another campaign finance crime?

When will Donald Trump sign an executive order to outlaw Arabic numerals? This is how dumb we are now.

This has to be the dumbest geopolitical era known to man.

I’m reading about independent gas stations in rural Australia unable to get fuel. Also reading about LNG sales in Mumbai being cut by 75%. Rationing and hoarding are happening, coming soon to a continent near you.

You are spot on. Iranians fight dirty on a sunny day. What has happened here won’t be forgotten for generations.

Weird. I thought we won the war a week ago.

The same way people aren’t asking what his kickback is on Russia’s $13B windfall on having oil sanctions removed overnight. Russia has 150M barrels of oil on its shadow fleet “stranded at sea” that are instantly sellable.

The question is “What’s Trump’s kickback”. Russia benefits from this war $12.75B overnight. Russia has 150M barrels of oil sanctioned & “stranded at sea” on its shadow fleet. It’s now instantly sellable without sanctions.

He’s not “making shit up”, rather what he’s doing is giving cover for an operation designed to drop Russian 🇷🇺 sanctions on oil, generating wealth and power for Russians. Yet another way to help them beat Ukraine. 🇺🇦

You’d be shocked. MRIs in the US depend on helium from Gulf countries. Snowball incoming.

It’s nearly impossible to lose Grenell, but Ogles pulled it off.
