Still waiting for this reality to be publicly acknowledged
The Iran war pushed the US fiscal situation into an "irrecoverable flat spin."
Maverick = the UST market.
Goose = the USD.
Charles V flooded Europe with silver to fund global wars, caused 400% inflation, destroyed domestic production, and went bankrupt by pre-spending future revenues.
Different century, same playbook. Imperial overreach always tests the limits of financial engineering.

Embarrassing 😳
Rewards for Justice is offering a reward of up to $20 million and possible relocation for information about Iran’s nuclear program, including its facilities, equipment, and associated personnel, such as those in the scientific community, or the movement of any of the above.

You will note that CENTCOM's map of Iran's borders does not label the countries on those borders.
Iran has about 3,600 miles of land border and 1,500 miles of sea border. 1,100 miles of the sea border is along the Persian Gulf, Strait of Hormuz, and Gulf of Oman. Around 400 is on the Caspian Sea.
Of the 3,600 miles of land border, around 1,000 is shared with Iraq, another 500-600 is shared with Afghanistan, 500-600 is shared with Pakistan, 700 is shared with Turkmenistan.
Turkmenistan is notoriously neutral and will certainly not assist the United States. The Taliban runs Afghanistan so good luck with that. The Iraqi government may help us, but the pro-Iranian presence in Iraq will all but guarantee little is done and the Kurds aren't going to be in a hurry to support the US again. Pakistan will not be in a hurry to help us either because whenever the US tires of this conflict, Pakistan has to live next to Iran.
Task Force Iron Gate is worthless. Like everything this administration has done to date, it is intended to sound like something is being accomplished without actually doing anything. It is a waste of time, a waste of resources, and a waste of any good will this nation has built up in the region over the last 25 years (not that much remained to begin with).

Of course Vance. How many times does the GOP need to get wiped out before it learns: NO NEW FUCKING WARS IN THE MIDDLE EAST.

Elizabeth Warren will likely be head of the Senate Banking Committee.
Sherrod Brown-returning Senator ousted by crypto interests-will play a key role in CFTC oversight through the Ag Committee.
You are going to see Maxine Walters-who loves cameras-A LOT.
Bitcoin doesn't care. Honey Badger doesn't give a shit.
The players are jockeying for 2028 and this will be 2 years of Kabuki theatre.
Trump and his cronies absolutely grifted and rug pulled investors. There will be constant investigations.
But even now the SEC and CFTC are continuing developing rules that bring digital assets further into established financial markets.
Bitcoin is now part of tradfi. An asset class of it's own, and is spreading like a virus into the financial engines of the world.
And we haven't seen anything yet.
Digital assets-and in particular Bitcoin-are here to stay.
One of the best things that could come out of this is for Bitcoiners to step away from politics, parties, and alignment to individuals.
Focus.
I can't describe to you what it is like to move an F18's wing next to another fighter at mere feet away and fly into a cloud bank.
Your world shrinks to a tube. A laser focused mental tube where inches separate you from bad things.
Get on my wing. Compartmentalize and forget this fucking nonsense around us

Democratically aligned modelers --which is pretty much all modelers -- will get overconfident & completely screw up 2028, much as @NateSilver538 did in 2016 after 2012, so many did in 2020 after 2018, and they repeated in 2024 after 2022. @gelliottmorris likely #1 to screw up.

The WSJ and Axios are also reporting this today
Vance, Witkoff, Kushner, Tom Barrack, Dan Caine and the Gulf want a diplomatic solution
Rubio and Bessent want more sanctions and the sea blockade
Brad Cooper, Hegseth and the Israelis want war
3 camps, 3 different strategies
🚨 BREAKING EXCLUSIVE: TRUMP’S INNER CIRCLE PUSHES TO AVOID ANOTHER WAR WITH IRAN
Senior White House officials are increasingly rallying behind VP JD Vance's approach: avoid renewed military action against Iran and pursue a diplomatic off-ramp.
Their argument? The American people have spoken.
The historic midterm election results have sent a clear message: Americans do NOT want another war.
Officials advocating restraint argue that Trump has already achieved his stated objective: neutralizing Iran's nuclear threat.
Their position is that Washington should preserve what it has achieved, not risk undoing it through another military escalation.
The proposed strategy:
- Maintain the blockade.
- Give diplomacy time to work.
- Leave Iran's political future to the Iranian people.
- Avoid another costly military confrontation.
And importantly, sources emphasize that Trump himself is far more measured in his deliberations than many realize.
The emerging message from inside the White House is clear: Declare the objective achieved. Maintain the pressure. Don't restart the war.

Cooper & Hegseth are Israel Lobby puppets.
