It’s a strange thing to me (not an economist) that great wealth is measured in abstract stock values but we speak about it in the same terms as money in the bank or a vault filled with gold. Originally, to acquire units of currency, they had to come from somewhere. Today they emerge from thin air.

I grew up hearing all of that “mankind will eventually colonize the stars” stuff but it was never framed as billionaire hucksters fleeing the planet they’ve squeezed dry to live in habitats on lifeless space rocks.

Say what you will about the Iranian regime, but they’ve got our fucking number. "The actions and statements of U.S. officials are primarily media-driven aimed first at preventing a drop in oil prices and second at extricating themselves from the mess they have created.”

ABC News: Senior Iranian military official says war with US will 'likely' resume
Iran's armed forces say it is "likely" the U.S.-Israel war on the country will resume as "evidence shows the US is not committed to any agreements
or treaties."
"The actions and statements of U.S. officials are primarily media-driven aimed first at preventing a drop in oil prices and second at extricating themselves from the mess they have created," Mohammad Jafar Asadi, deputy of the military headquarters, said in a statement carried by Iran's Fars news agency.

Donald Trump as a fifth grade boy: Unloved, unliked, insecure about his looks and intelligence, just a rich asshole child. Today: Much older, but otherwise exactly the same. He has never developed, intellectually or emotionally, beyond his fifth grade peak. Just a rich asshole child.

Yes, good point. Do you have any examples of a prominent public figure posting a lot of heated rhetoric and threats on social media?

So she…has the right, but she doesn’t have the right. Do I have that right? That would fit with everything else. Hormuz is open, but it’s closed, we need it open, but we don’t need it, the war is won, but it’s still going, we’re in a ceasefire, but it’s not a ceasefire, it’s war, it’s not a war

Pete Hegseth believes that Jesus guides Tomahawk missiles, even when they hit elementary schools. I wrote about the roots of his militant faith - from the Crusades to the confederacy - and what they mean for the US and Iran today.

The bible-thumping US defense secretary is overseeing another strategic disaster in the Middle East. Is this a war or a crusade?

Trump and the official White House rapid response account are saying that CNN is broadcasting a fraudulent statement by the Islamic Republic but it’s not. CNN is broadcasting an official regime statement that humiliates Trump. The statement is not fraudulent, it’s authentic.

The Declaration of Independence specifies 27 grievances with King George III and Britain. Donald Trump and his regime have committed at least 20 of those same offenses highlighted in yellow. #NoKings

An image of a list of the 27 grievances against King George III in the Declaration of Independence. Donald Trump's regime has committed at least 20 of them in whole or in part, condensed into the list below:
1. He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.
2. He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of representation …
3. He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing … his invasions on the rights of the people.
4. He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; … obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners …
5. He has obstructed the Administration of Justice …
6. He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices …
7. He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.
8. He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.
9. He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power.
10. He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution … giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:
11. For Quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:
12. For protecting them … from punishment for any Murders which they should commit …
13. For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:
14. For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:
15. For depriving us … of the benefits of Trial by Jury:
16. For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences:
17. For … abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:
18. He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us.
19. He has … destroyed the lives of our people.
20. He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us …

I get that people feel betrayed because he hasn’t delivered on any of his campaign promises, but if you thought that any of his promises ever meant anything, you haven’t been paying attention.
