The US government is being putinized by trump, before our eyes.

The Russians might want to be careful or Trump might get rid of even more sanctions on them.

Why China could emerge a winner from Trump’s global energy shock Spiking oil prices may reveal how China has been more successful in electrifying its economy and reducing dependence on fossil fuels than the United States.

After fooling the Trump administration into lifting sanctions on fossil fuels by involving them in the 'peace negotiations'-hoax, which required them to temporarily stop sending ballistic missiles into Kyiv's apartment buildings, the Russians have now resumed their barbaric attacks.

BREAKING: A federal judge just blocked DOJ subpoenas targeting Fed Chair Jerome Powell, ruling there is “a mountain of evidence” they were used to pressure Powell to lower interest rates or resign. Trump’s social media posts are featured prominently in the opinion.

Oil prices aren't expected to fall anytime soon. Futures markets suggest oil prices are very likely to be high high during the midterms.

TEKSTA TIEŠRAIDE: ASV uz laiku atļauj iegādāties tankkuģos esošo sankcijām pakļauto Krievijas naftu Tuvo Austrumu reģionā jau otro nedēļu turpinās karadarbība, kas sākās pēc ASV un Izraēlas triecieniem Irānai. Bruņotais konflikts skāris lielu daļu reģiona valstu, jo Irāna devusi atbildes triecienus....

Jebkādu sankciju mīkstināšana pret Krieviju un tās naftu ir vienkārši milzīga, stratēģiska kļūda.

Kāds īsti ir ieguvums no šī? Vai tas sniedz jebkādu ieskatu tajā, kāds ir šī kara mērķis un kā to izbeigt?

Kāda īsti ir Latvijas nostāja?

I kid you not... The same White House that forgot that invading Iran might lead it to close the Strait of Hormuz, is now arguing (through Peter Navarro) that war with Iran is a good idea because it'll prevent Iran from closing the Strait of Hormuz.

The Fate of the First Amendment The Defense Department announced is barring press photographers from the briefings it holds on the war in Iran.

When the President decides photojournalists can’t take pictures at Sec’y Hegseth’s Iran briefings, it’s not a small thing. We’re connecting the dots to the larger efforts to erode our 1st Amendment rights, just when we need them the most. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Yes. This is transparently the plan. It is a destructive and unconstitutional plan. And it can be stopped. It can even be turned into an electoral issue that hurts Trump. But only if we face this now.

A grim parallel between US escalating a trade war w/ China & realising that China has serious leverage in the form of rare earths & US launching a war vs Iran & realising Iran has serious leverage in the form of being able to blow up the world economy. Failure of statecraft.
