The war is going great
Further iranian drone hits on fuel storages in Oman and Bahrein. On his first campaign trip since the start of the military operation against Iran, Trump addressed the rising gasoline prices. During appearances in Kentucky and Ohio, Trump said oil prices would fall. "It's going to fall more than anybody understands," the president declared during a factory visit in Cincinnati, Ohio. Dance baby, dance...

Trump Will TACO On Iran
I agree, but... Will Iran also stop? Nothing has changed there. The same (or worse) hardliners are and will stay in power. The lack of planning at the White House, which government officials reported shortly after the start of the war, appears to be continuing. Trump claims that Venezuelan oil could help curb inflation. The crude oil from the South American country is primarily heavy fuel oil, which can only be processed in certain specially equipped refineries. Production costs are therefore higher than for oil from the Middle East. The Strait of Hormuz primarily carries Saudi Arabian oil, which mainly produces light fuel oil. Car users in the USA are paying noticeably more at the gas station. And that won't change. Trump lost (again) from the beginning. And the taxpayers foot the bill.

The Long-Feared Persian Gulf Oil Squeeze Is Upon Us
The same guy who wants a weeker Dollar. Unfortunatly for him, the dollar is rising against all currencies since a week except the Canadian Dollar... Does anybody have an idea why the CAD is rising against the USD? Because of the oil that they have?

The Long-Feared Persian Gulf Oil Squeeze Is Upon Us
Inflation will rise for sure. Transport - means in general all goods - will drive up prices on everything. Electricity prices will soar heavily too in Thailand. Lucky those who have a PV installation. If you are still wondering if you should or shouldn't - now is the moment to start. "Stupid" examples Aspirin consists of 35% petroleum. (Acetylsalicylic acid -> Benzene) up to 40% of a smartphone is made out of oil tires, candles, polyester (plastics in general) etc. 1 barrel oil = only about 80 plastic cups! Just imagine what is used daily only in Thailand The listing could go on and on. So be prepared for rising prices.

Thailand's tourism ?
War in the Middle East could seriously affect Thai tourism this year, with a 25% decline from the 2026 target being the worst-case scenario if the fighting extends beyond three months, prompting officials to target short‑haul tourists to fill the gap. According to a preliminary forecast by the TAT, the worst‑case scenario would involve a potential decrease of 25% to between 27 million and 29 million foreign visitors, from the 2026 target of 36.7 million. If the war ends within three months, the agency sees an 18% decline to 30–31 million, which is the base‑case scenario. For the best‑case scenario, if tensions subside in two to four weeks, there would be a minimal impact of only 2%.

US eases sanctions on Russian oil sales to India
Well, from my POV oil prices are shooting up anyway. The US has enough oil, now that Venezuela is allowed to export again. With easing the sanctions on russian oil, Russia makes more money to terrorize Ukraine. Politically... Trump doesen't care about that. It's only "I-me-myself".

The war is going great
There are no opposition structures that could take over, except for the Revolutionary Guard. However, the Guard currently wants to maintain the power structure because all those who share power benefit from it. There will be no boots on the ground. Not even Kurdish fighters in the region, who are willing to assist in efforts to topple the Iranian government. Trump ruled that out. So after the bombing Trump will say: "Mission accomplished." But this statement will be again - same as in Iraq - proved false, because the principle applies: "If you break it, you own it." Trump uses the same communication manipulation as Bush did. He calles on the Iranians to "take over their government." But doesen't give them the chance and the needed support against the Revolutionary Guard. In doing so, he is only saying that he will help, but if it fails, it won't be his fault. The typical blame game. Never his fault.

Venezuela - no changes - US officially recognized the same regime
The US officially recognizes the Venezuelan government According to President Donald Trump, the US has officially recognized the Venezuelan government. "We have actually legally recognized them," Trump said at a meeting with Latin American and Caribbean leaders in Doral, Florida. Following the arrest of Nicolás Maduro, many hoped for genuine change in Venezuela. However, no changes have materialized. Vice President Rodríguez assumes the presidency – and is now officially allowed to continue in office. With Iran - it will be the same game. No changes - but he calls himself "the peace president". He is responsible for terrorizing US citizens at home, higher gas prices, higher inflation, less jobs and spending massive taxdollars on wars. Sowing chaos worldwide he has done nothing for the american people. Enriching him and his family is the only purpose of his being. He's only a pathetic little scumbag.

Takeaways from The Iran Strike
The US State Department has declared a state of emergency related to the war in Iran in order to sell more than 20,000 bombs, worth nearly $660 million, to Israel without congressional approval, the New York Times reports, citing government officials. The State Department statement, released Friday evening, says Secretary of State Marco Rubio has determined that "an emergency exists that requires the immediate sale" to Israel. This is the first time the Trump administration has declared a state of emergency under the Arms Export Control Act to authorize arms sales to Israel. Yep, a "peace president"...

Everything's Coming Up.....Weeds for Trump
The first showups were on Instagram and Facebook on the 10th December last year. But no reliable news source has ever used this as far as I found out. EDIT: This particular image is a digitally altered photograph, significantly modified with Photoshop. Compared to the original, this version includes the addition of a quadruple chin and more pronounced age spots, among other things.

Takeaways from The Iran Strike
$3.7 Billion: Estimated Cost of Epic Fury’s First 100 HoursThe first 100 hours (H+100) of the operation are estimated to cost $3.7 billion, or $891.4 million each day. Some of these costs are already budgeted, but most ($3.5 billion) are not. So 3.5 billion for the first 100 hours plus the 1.1billion for the The AN/FPS-132 early warning radar. Now this mess will go 4-6 weeks (maybe longer?!). Lets take another 25days only: Air Operations: Approximately $30 Million Daily Naval Operations: Approximately $15 Million Daily Ground Operations: Approximately $1.6 Million Daily Munitions Expenditures: Approximately 758.1 Million Daily Air Defense Interceptors: Approximatley 1.7 Billion have been spent in the first 100 hours. Most of these cost were carried by UAE, Kuwait, Bahrain and Qatar.

More DoJ Coverup of Trump in Epstein Files
BUT:Not all the missing documents had been uploaded as of Thursday evening. Some, labeled as "interview notes," still didn't turn up when HuffPost searched their serial numbers from the witness list. The available documents don't say what the FBI thought of the woman's allegations. Rep. Melanie Stansbury (D-N.M.), one of the lawmakers who confirmed the documents were missing from the Epstein Library, posted links to the files on Thursday evening. "Time to subpoena Trump," she said. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/latest-news-live-updates_n_69a562ade4b0d383f503f9f5/liveblog_69aa39d4e4b0d6f0706d4f59?origin=home-latest-news-unit

Looking for my Susan: Do you know this girl? Pls PM me, tks!
"Aaaaaahhh..." *slapping my hand over my eyes* " Why did you did this to me? It will be burnt into my imagination for the rest of my life." Smoke rising out of my ears while blood emerging over my cheeks coming from under my hands.*

Is Trump deliberately trying to sabotage the world economy?
I don't believe that he really thinks that. It's just his normal thing to do. Telling lies and repeat them often enough, and dumb people will believe what I'm saying.

Texas state Rep. James Talarico - surprised to see whats happening
And further good news for Texas - emm sorry - for the US... :-) Talarico is a strong fundraiser, bringing in more than $20 million to his campaign already, and Democrats would count on him to significantly outraise Paxton. That cost, however, may ultimately prove more daunting to Republicans. Multiple GOP operatives described the state as “too big to fail.” While Democrats do not need to win the state to win a Senate majority, it is difficult to imagine Republicans keeping the Senate if they lose.
