Treasuries are plunging, oil is rising. Official word is, the consumer keeps spending on higher prices. On credit? When will the stock market break?

Wow. Treasuries indicate a dramatic loss of confidence in the US. Trump does what he does best: bankruptcy. Wonder when he will issue an unconstitutional order to suspend debt payments, or blackmail countries into buying soon-to-be worthless US paper.

Australia is advancing to be a pioneer in the fight against oligarchs: Users being able to opt out of social media algos! Even better would be to prohibit them altogether, as many users don't understand what it does to them. This would collapse the value of Meta etc. if adopted everywhere.

We are having this Trump problem because the Republican Party is corrupt and isn't doing its job to hold a criminal President accountable. The same can be said for the corrupt Republican faction of the Supreme Court! The people should be able to remove these robed bandits, too. They are on the take!

Euronews reports that only one out of 18 prison inmates in the EU is female. Draw your own conclusions. I've always said that men should generally be excluded from top leadership positions. Trump, Putin, Xi, etc. Merkel, Ardern, Marin, even Meloni... O.k., Thatcher, that's the one out of 18.

Looking at the behavior of the 10 yr treasuries, I think the Supreme Asshole of the US is getting awfully close to bankrupt the US.

In Bangkok heat has been reaching 50 deg C for three solid weeks now. Cooling centers have been installed to enable survival. This is what it looks like when legacy economic interest trumps everything else. Perhaps the Strait of Hormuz should remain closed.

Hungarians have understood that only a constitution-changing majority can clean up the mess. If only the American people were that smart. But stupidity is systemic policy in the US since its inception, the idea that if everyone focusses on their own business, the common good will emerge naturally.

Der Spiegel reports that China prepares to deliver anti-aircraft weapons to Iran. Classic proxy war shaping up: intelligence from Russia, hardware from China, and who knows, North Korea. We know how that goes for the US. Iran will not let go of a weapon more potent than nukes: the strait of Hormuz.

The pardoning power of the president has been spotted by Trump as the most effective tool to nullify the very constitution bestowing it. The rot in the US constitution was there from the very beginning, just like slavery. That it remains in effect after 250 years is the signature of a stupid people.

The USA under the Trump regime currently poses a far greater threat to Europe than China ever has. As long as America is ruled by an autocrat, the US should actually withdraw from NATO — it would be the safer option for Europe. #Trump #NATO #Europe #USPolitics #Geopolitics #AmericaFirst

O.k., the stage is set for the midterms. Trump has ordered unconstitutionally to restrict voting by mail. If states don't adhere to that, he will claim fraud. The only piece missing is the birthright thing, which would allow him to completely muddy the waters and claim whatever he wants.

Looks like Trump will learn these days that there are more powerful blackmailers out there. Maybe Iran should demand the unconditional capitulation of the US to their demands. I could even muster some sympathy for Iran's criminal regime if they forced the resignation of the weaker blackmailer.
