Russians are buying MP3 players again with demand in February 2026 rising 23% because of the limits on mobile internet and access to streaming services and the censorship of songs that contain speech that's prohibited in Russia after March 1st 2026.

The Strait of Hormuz is closed. It's not going to get more closed than it already is. All the risk is now on the other side, i.e. when and to what extent it opens. You can bet Trump is very focused on that. The midterms depend on it. That caps oil prices...

Exactly. But they are probably not very open about what they dropped aside from the rough number. Economic damage is probably out-scaling those 40 Billions any way quit fast.

There is an hours long video of drying paint on a wall on YouTube.

❗️Over the entire 4 years of the war, Kyiv has received only about 600 modern Patriot missiles, – Advisor to the President of Ukraine Lytvyn.

I doubt release some reserves will do a dent in the market price.

... and if there really is a supply shock, President Trump has used his year and a half in office to make sure the US Strategic Petroleum Reserve stands ready to repla... oh, nevermind. :(

Thanks Donny😡

Als Russland 2022 die gesamte Ukraine überfällt, flüchten die Lastivkas in den Westen Europas. Bis auf Vater Ruslan, der sich damals freiwillig für die Armee meldet. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt kann die Familie nicht ahnen, wie sehr der Krieg ihr Leben verändern würde. 1/4

Does Russia simply run out of any gear or is Ukraine really performing poorly? I know Covertcabal's video on the remaining tanks. They are scraping the barrel.

This map feels like a metaphor for how we live our lives. We carefully step around conflicts (that are in no way inevitable in the first place) and carry on with our banalities. I’m not saying we shouldn’t but it does feel representative of our condition.

A video released by Mehr News, and geolocated by Bellingcat, shows the missile hitting a building near the school. This image shows a comparison between the Tomahawk missile seen in the video and a Tomahawk missile flying over Tehran earlier in the conflict.

New video footage shows a US Tomahawk missile hitting an IRGC facility in Minab, Iran, on Feb 28, showing for the first time that the US struck the area. The footage also shows smoke already rising from the vicinity of the girls’ school, where 175 people were reportedly killed, including children.

They have plenty of people, so they don't care. Countries like Nigeria for example.

Pentagon Announces Seventh U.S. Death in War With Iran The service member killed was not publicly identified, but U.S. Central Command said the death was caused by injuries after an attack on a Saudi military base.

Another American service member has died in the war with Iran, the Pentagon said on Sunday, bringing the number of American troops killed in the conflict to seven.

“Mothers are worried we’re gonna have a draft.”

KAROLIE: “President Trump wisely does not remove options off the table.” 😳🤔

Trump is today telling every member of the US military that it is ok with him if Russia helps Iran kill them--every one.

Once again Americans, Trump looks at US military personnel as suckers and losers that he can sacrifice for his own glory and profit. This is who leads

Russia is producing those for ages in Russia already. How bad is he informed?

To punish... someone they will allow Russia to sell more oil again,.. make it make sense.

What this further confirms is that the Trump administration knows Russia is helping Iranians try to kill Americans, but is doing nothing to stop it. How about sanctions or more arms sales to Ukraine?
