Trump Went to War With Iran Because Jared Kushner Is a Fool Donald Trump’s top two negotiators have no clue what they’re doing.

Kushner and Witkoff are ignorant hacks, part 245,699.

"Several nuclear experts have raised questions about the disastrous duo’s technical understanding of uranium enrichment after they presented an assessment of Iran’s Research Reactor that made no sense."

Why does everyone keep calling it “The Epstein Ballroom?” Please stop repeating “The Epstein Ballroom” because it is not called “The Epstein Ballroom!” Don’t tell the news that it’s called “The Epstein Ballroom” and please don’t repost this!!!!!

What isn't mentioned is that the Republicans are having their conference at Donald Trump's resort. In other words, it's a kickback to line the venal simpleton's pockets. We are living in the most corrupt times.

If the DOW & the S&P 500 are the measure of all things (they are not) things are not looking good for Trump's War as the DOW future is down 1,000 for tomorrow's opening. Wheeeee!

Screenshot of an X post by “No Lie with Brian Tyler Cohen” claiming Costco is demanding that Trump reimburse them for tariffs so they can refund customers. Below are two images side by side: the Costco Wholesale logo and a photo of Donald Trump looking at a phone while reporters hold microphones near him.

💰 Who profits the most when oil prices spike

Oil company owners & major shareholders

When oil goes from, say, $70 → $110 per barrel:

Oil companies’ profits explode
Their stock prices usually jump
Anyone who owns a big chunk of those companies gets richer instantly

Every single professional journalist who uses the phrases “Department of War” or “Secretary of War” without scare quotes should be lined up on a public viewing stage and bopped on the head with a giant inflatable hammer that says DUMB DUMB on the handle and makes fart sounds.

It happened to me: I went on a 2 day business trip, packed sneakers, and actually went for a run at the hotel gym. 2026 can only go down from here I fear.

The difference between the spike in global oil prices now versus 2022 is that this time the US president single-handedly caused it to happen overnight with a policy while accepting no responsibility, while the US president in 2022 was blamed for it even though he didn’t cause it.

60 to 70 years of indulging the culture of narcissism has created a society without virtue. Reference Christopher Lasch's "The Culture of Narcissism."

Rep. Lieu calls for a new investigation into Epstein’s death after released documents show a prison guard responsible for checking on him deposited $5000 into her account 10 days before his death and googled him right before he was found.

Mumps is back, but vaccines can prevent it Maryland is one of several states that are reporting cases of the infectious disease mumps, suggesting the return of diseases—like measles—that vaccines protect against

We counted 1500 measles cases as of the end of last month. Guess who else is starting to rear its ugly head- Mumps.

It has been detected in ~34 people across 11 states.

Symptoms show up a few weeks after exposure in the form of fever, heads & swollen salivary glands.
