IMPEACHMENT ODDS FOR TRUMP HIT ALL-TIME HIGH Prediction markets are increasingly betting that Donald Trump could be impeached again before 2028. On Kalshi, the probability has climbed to around 71% — an all-time high on the market after steadily rising from the mid-50% range
HORMUZ SHIPPING NEARLY HALTED The Strait of Hormuz is effectively closed to most vessels as the Middle East conflict enters its second week. Inbound traffic to the Persian Gulf has been at a standstill for the past 24 hours, with only Iran-linked ships continuing to pass.
i would simply not have started the war that closed the world's economic artery
Vietnam urges people to work from home to save fuel as Iran war disrupts supplies reut.rs/4bf05tr
The bottom line is Trump sacrificed 8 American lives (& counting) and more than 1,000 Iranian lives (& counting) for nothing. He hurt the US & global economies, destabilized the Middle East, & will pull out with the same Iranian regime in power. There's no silver lining.
A senseless, criminal waste
lol
*IRAN SAYS HORMUZ OPEN TO STATES THAT EXPEL US, ISRAELI ENVOYS
CBS reporter: In a phone interview, President Trump told me the war could be over soon: “I think the war is very complete, pretty much. They have no navy, no communications, they’ve got no Air Force.” He added that the U.S. is “very far” ahead of his initial 4-5 week estimated time frame.
Oil price tanking.
Either Trump is about to end the Iran War or he's manipulating the market to enrich his cronies.
Idaho. Florida. South Carolina is next.
It was a true honour for our caucus to meet with the Chiefs of the Blackfoot Confederacy.
Alberta's New Democrats unequivocally reject separatism, respect treaty rights, and stand with Indigenous peoples.
Always.
well aware of how little people want to be told to drive less, and i love it for this administration
Putin: The Strait of Hormuz is effectively closed.
Israel just committed a crime against computer history. By destroying the last F14's they effectively destroyed the first microprocessor ever made. Its like when the Soviets demolished Königsberg Castle.

This one is a huge honour for me RS
"Jews don't belong in American society."
Imagine a sitting member of Congress tweeting that. You can't. Thankfully, it'd never happen. And *if* it did, it'd be the end of their career and the biggest story in America.
But Ogles can say this about Muslims without any censure.
DONALD TRUMP CLAIMS "I HAVE A PLAN FOR EVERYTHING" REGARDING OIL PRICES IN AN INTERVIEW WITH THE NEW YORK POST.
When the State Department orders non-essential diplomats out of Saudi Arabia, it signals how dangerous the regional situation has become. Missile and drone threats tied to the expanding Iran conflict are now reaching diplomatic sites, a reminder that escalation rarely stays contained.
I don't think it's the *most* likely outcome, but I genuinely see the Iran war as putting Trump in real peril of being impeached and removed post-midterms. It started catastrophically unpopular and if things spiral into a major energy crisis we could see some wild blowout kind of results.
The first circuit breaker is probably going to trip before they're even done with the ceremony. Poor Rosie Rios was the Treasurer under Obama and deserves better than this certain ignominy. Her signature is literally on a whole bunch of money that's about to lose a lot of value.
maybe I'm focusing on the wrong thing here but this is the wildest shit I've ever heard a white South African say and I study racism for a living
I do worry that Trump is going to look at the market numbers and send in the navy escorts to the SoH in a totally reactionary manner that the IRGC has been hoping for.
I’m sure Trump anticipated all of this happening and has a great plan.

*IRAN PICKS KHAMENEI'S SON, MOJTABA, AS SUPREME LEADER: FARS
Tweet from Daniel Pipes: "The uprising in Iran in early January suggested an even greater insurgency would then follow on the U.S.-Israeli campaign to erode regime power. Yet, the populace now appears cowed into near-silence. This ranks as the most surprising and disappointing development of the past week. Without a new uprising, the regime will likely remain in power, less powerful but more awful than ever. (The picture below is from Jan. 10 in Tehran.)"
Amazing how quickly "We're fighting this war for freedom of the Iranian people" becomes "The Iranian people are at fault for not rising up."
We've been hearing about the savagery of the lesser races means we need to take control of their resources for their own good for *centuries*. It is what it is, but it's wild to see so many ostensible liberals continue to eat it up with a spoon like they have no idea how propaganda works.
So Trump has just said ‘Irans new leader won’t last long without my approval’….digest that for a minute! The American president will decide who runs Iran and if not will kill whoever takes over 😳
screenshot of text::"The United Nations instituted International Women’s Day (IWD) in 1975—or so the official story runs. Few remember not only that the origins of March 8 lie in the history of the international workers’ movement, but that it was the socialist movement in the United States that first launched the idea of a day devoted to women’s rights centered on working-class women. In fact, the Socialist Party USA first established a day of education and action around women’s rights called “Woman’s Day” in 1908, and the following year U.S. socialists held demonstrations in several cities to demand women’s suffrage. In 1910, German socialist Clara Zetkin proposed the transformation of the U.S. Woman’s Day into an international day of action—International Working Women’s Day—which, in 1914, started being celebrated on March 8. Three years later, on March 8, 1917, Russian women workers took to the streets in St. Petersburg, organizing a strike to demand bread and peace. It was the beginning of the Russian Revolution."

Though it is day, the sun cannot be seen in Tehran today because of all the smoke following the US and Israel bombing Tehran's oil refineries. People on the ground describe it as armageddon. History will not forgive Reza Pahlavi, Masih Alinejad, Nazanin Boniadi, and all other "leaders" who tricked Iranians into thinking this war would set them free.
Oh my god: this is *daytime* in Tehran.
BREAKING: The US has bombed Tehran’s main refinery and burning oil is now flooding down the streets into the city’s sewers.
This is a vision from hell, unleashed by the US tonight.
