Great experience competing at @EWUFootball Big Man Camp today! Thank you to @CoachGermer, @CoachCBrink, @CoachBestEWU, and the entire Eastern Washington coaching staff for a great day of coaching and competition.

been wondering for a long time why Treasury had exempt Nobitex. it was a known fact that Iran had active crypto exchanges.

I suspect but don't know for sure that Treasury was trying to balance allowing individual Iranians to get out of the Rial (hence depreciating the currency and hurting the regime) with the possibility of the IRGC using stablecoins to fund themselves.

There is a lot of noise surrounding the potential US/Iran deal.

Here’s what the rumors are so far:

- Iran has agreed to give up its stockpile of highly enriched uranium. Iran currently has 400 kg of highly enriched uranium. Enough for 11 nuclear bombs.

- The US would begin a phased unfreezing of Iran’s $6b to $30b in cash.

- The Strait of Hormuz will open up.

- Iran won’t charge a penny for ships to pass through. No $2m toll fee.

- The US agrees to relieve some of the sanctions.

- War ENDS on all fronts with Lebanon.

- US forces near Iran to withdraw.

- 30 to 60 days to finalize the nuclear deal.

If true, that’s a massive victory for the President.

Here are the winners and losers.

Winners:

1. American people. Oil prices will likely fall. Shipping insurance costs drop. Inflation pressure eases.

2. The President

3. Global markets.

4. Stock market.

5. Gulf states. Temporary tension eliminated. I have them as both winners and losers.

6. IRGC gains legitimacy. They’re not Venezuela. Whether anyone likes it or not. Including myself.

7. China is a major winner. The Strait of Hormuz hurt them the most. They can spin this to their people that the deal got done after the President left China.

8. Russia relies on Iran being a bit more stable.

9. NATO nations were starting to worry. They were pansies shivering about having to help the US. (They’re also big losers in my eyes)

Losers:

1. Iranian people. No one knows what the IRGC will do after this deal to their own people. Their media outlets will say they beat America. That message will 100% be pushed. The Iranian people will be under even more scrutiny by the IRGC.

2. Obama’s administration. This sounds like a much stronger deal than Obama’s administration made.

3. Netanyahu. He wanted regime change or collapse for his legacy, but Trump wasn’t on the same page at the end.

4. NATO was exposed. They showed they don’t have America’s back if shit were to hit the fan. Terrible moment for them.

5. Reza Pahlavi. Another year of not being able to help his people become free. This point will lead to more memes by the RP loyalists but it’s the truth.

6. Gulf states. The IRGC still controls a neighbor capable of firing rockets at surrounding Gulf nations.

7. Iranian proxies and non state actors. Hezbollah, Houthis, and Shia militias will not receive the same funding flow if sanctions are removed under limitations tied to the agreement.

8. Defense contractors and war hawks. They wanted this thing to continue so they could land massive contracts. I’m sure they’re not happy.

9. Oil producers benefiting from high prices.

10. Political extremists on both sides. Those who wanted to see the President lose (woke right) and those pushing for nuclear war.

11. Democrats. They desperately needed this to continue heading into the midterms. They will HATE this deal. Don’t worry, they’ll still find a way to blame Trump. But independents won’t fall for the BS. Democrats and the woke right will follow suit, but not reasonable independents who can see through the nonsense.

I predicted this would be done before June 14th. Lots of people pushed back. Obviously, it’s not done yet, and anything can happen, especially when dealing with Iran, but if the President pulls this off, the news outlets, pundits, and influencers will move on to the next issue after they’re done crying nonstop.

The greatest 60 days of positive distractions are around the corner.

President Trump’s birthday: June 14th
US 250 year anniversary: July 4th
World Cup: June 11th to July 19th

The world will move on, and the President can focus on driving results toward the midterms, Cuba, affordability and other issues.

Love him or hate him, he continues to show how fluid his mind is and that he can change his approach depending on whether things do or don’t go his way.

Future Looks Bright.

@GreaterIdaho @CBCorgi @boisemayor Boise got bluer in the past 20 years because people who didn't love the downtown/blue ideology just moved 6 miles to the West in the suburbs (Meridian). Meridian pop growth 10x that of Boise in the past 2 decades.

If you lose 1% every day, for 100 days. You will only be down 63%

It you make 1% every day for 100 days. You will be up 170% or 2.7x

Good evening.

Wal-Mart installed digital price tags, and it wasn’t so they could lower prices dynamically.

Have a great day.

Great Idea! The costs are the same for self-employed individuals. Which disincentives entrepreneurship.

[Mark Cuban @mcuban]

I don’t think people realize how much healthcare costs are driving big companies to fire and not hire.

It costs them $30k per family, per year for premiums and care. Most of that goes to the massive, vertically integrated insurance companies that send weekly bills that no one reviews in details. And it doesn’t include the company overhead to deal with it all. It’s usually the 2nd largest expense after payroll. Which is insane

It’s far easier to blame AI than it is to blame Healthcare costs.

Want to increase jobs, wages and improve affordability for every American ?

Break up the biggest insurance companies. Make divest non insurance companies. They don’t need thousands of subsidiaries. That’s how they game and abuse the system and increase costs for all of us.

Call your senator and tell them to support the BreakUp Big Medicine Bill by @HawleyMO and @SenWarren.

Gold weakness at a time of War is surprising many.

Many who do not know the dynamics of liquidity.

With its high price and liquidity is now a source of cash.
