“We’re in a Schrodinger’s tariff right now.” One proclamation says “a 10% tariff on the rest of the world,” the next post says “a 15% tariff literally effective immediately,” then the White House pretends he never said it.
The crack team who brought you the trade war are now in Iran.

Of course, no need for EVs - oil is dirt cheap and plentiful, right?

If only there was a real solution to these recurring problems like, e.g. renewables.... But that's always the last choice, we never learn the lessons from over 50 years of energy crises: remember the 1973 oil shock, anyone?

"These people were not hired to be serious. They were not hired to be professional. They were hired to support Donald Trump, never to say 'No' to him and to conduct the affairs of state...as if this is just a big internet fight where the guy with the funniest meme wins." - @radiofreetom.bsky.social

Tra trattati decaduti e l'ascesa cinese, l’ordine nucleare della Guerra Fredda è al tramonto. In questo vuoto strategico, Macron propone di estendere la "force de frappe" francese ai partner UE, offrendo un’alternativa continentale all’ombrello USA.

Nel suo editoriale sul Corriere della Sera, Walter Veltroni accusa l’Occidente di farci scivolare verso il caos internazionale per la crescente prevalenza della forza sulla politica. Ma l’ordine nato nel dopoguerra non si è retto solo sul diritto:

Campaign filing showing Eric Schmidt donated $1,041,896 to California Business Roundtable
Lots of new campaign filings coming out in California with tech billionaires spending big.
One new filing I hadn't seen reported on yet was Google's Eric Schmidt donating more than $1M to a committee combating the proposed billionaire tax

Tweet by Adam Kinzinger responding to a post about the U.S. using low-cost interceptors against Iranian drones, suggesting Ukraine provided the technology. The image shows Donald Trump speaking at a podium during a White House event.
My my, how it’s come full circle.

Dire Straits: The Iran War Is Run by Idiots
Also: Americans don't care about process. So they will get corruption.
“It should not surprise you that the same team which invited a reporter into a Signal chat about war plans a few months ago have been blindsided by the Iranian regime’s resilience.”

“The US is roughly speaking oil independent… on net, we export petroleum products.”
That’s why this is less an ‘America is poorer’ story than an ‘Americans reshuffle who wins’ story. Drivers lose. Oil industry wins.

I don't think you have to Nostradamus to figure that bombing Iran might raise oil prices. And it seems pretty obvious that buying oil in advance of causing an oil price spike might just save Americans a lot of money. But...
...maybe there wasn't much planning?

Why hasn’t democracy been updated? What will shape the new world order? And why does President Stubb say being Prime Minister was the worst job he’s ever had?

The thing that I don't think they've fully grasped is because we've had two nearly three generations of adults who have been vaccinated, people are going to realize pretty quickly shit is bad when suddenly their kids are dying.

He can just use state power to make bad things worse, blame others, and demand that we don’t hold elections. That’s it, that’s the whole plot; and if we don’t see it that’s on us. (3/3)
