🚨WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THIS
Trump's 5-day pause announcement isn't random.
There are 2 big reasons behind this, and the 2nd one will shock you.
The first reason is to calm down the markets.
Since the US-Iran war started, US stocks have been selling off hard.
On top of that, the US 10Y bond yield is moving higher, and Fed rate cut odds have changed into rate hikes.
As we know, Trump cares about the stock and bond market more than anything.
Today's announcement was simply to drive bond yields lower and give some relief to the stock market.
Also, the 5-day deadline will end on Friday after the US market close, so markets can rally until then.
Now, coming back to the second reason.
A few days ago, it was reported that the U.S.S. Tripoli, an American-class amphibious assault ship carrying 2,200 Marines, is moving towards the Middle East.
It would take 3-5 days more for this ship to arrive around the Strait of Hormuz.
And we know the purpose of this?
To secure the Strait of Hormuz and allow passage of oil tankers.
Since the war has started, everyone knows that Strait is the most powerful weapon of Iran.
US is trying to gain control over it, and this needs time.
By giving a 5-day deadline, Trump is not only giving relief to the markets but also buying enough time for American ships to reach Strait.
BREAKING: While the world debates whether Trump’s “productive conversations” are real, the United States eliminated 10 Iran-backed PMF fighters and the Anbar operations chief during a commanders’ meeting in western Iraq. Thirty wounded. The strike was precision-targeted at a headquarters coordinating attacks on US forces across the region.
This happened during what headlines are calling a “pause.” Here is what the pause actually is.
President Trump’s 5-day suspension applies to one category: Iranian power plants and energy infrastructure. That restraint was a deliberate choice to protect 88 million Iranian civilians from a blackout that would collapse hospitals, water systems, and emergency services. It was not weakness. It was the decision of a president who holds the capacity to destroy Iran’s entire grid in “one shot” and chose not to, buying time for diplomacy that could save millions of lives on both sides.
Everything outside that protected category continues with full intensity because it must. The IRGC headquarters that plan missile strikes on Israeli civilians are being dismantled. The launcher sites that fire cluster munitions at Tel Aviv at 3 AM are being hunted. The missile production facilities that build the Khorramshahr-4s carrying Soviet-era designs upgraded with Chinese components are being destroyed. The nuclear scientists who could rebuild the programme that threatens the entire region are being removed from the equation. The PMF commanders who coordinate Iranian proxy attacks on American service members are being targeted. The IDF dropped over 100 precision munitions on Tehran overnight, striking Quds Force command posts, IRGC intelligence centres, and warhead research facilities. These are military targets. These are the command nodes of an apparatus that has fired hundreds of ballistic missiles at civilian populations.
Now look at what Iran and its proxies are doing with their “pause.” Overnight cluster munitions fell on Tel Aviv, Ramat Gan, and Kiryat Shmona. Not military bases. Residential neighbourhoods. Hezbollah fired rockets into northern Israeli communities. Houthis continued attacking commercial shipping in the Red Sea, threatening the livelihoods of sailors from dozens of nations who have nothing to do with this war. Iranian drones targeted Gulf desalination plants that produce drinking water for millions. The electricity ledger Iran published on live television was not a statement of restraint. It was a target list: “Strike electricity and we strike electricity.” Iran is openly promising to attack the infrastructure that keeps civilian populations alive across an entire region.
The contrast is structural. The United States paused strikes on civilian infrastructure to create space for talks. Iran used that same space to fire cluster munitions at residential areas and threaten regional power grids. Israel is striking military headquarters and missile factories. Iran is striking apartment buildings and threatening desalination plants. One side drew a line to protect civilians. The other side is using the protection as cover to target them.
Trump is simultaneously fighting and negotiating because that is how wars end. The Islamabad channel is being prepared. Ghalibaf is being evaluated. The 82nd Airborne is positioning. The IDF is hunting 140 remaining launchers. The power-plant pause holds because both sides understand that crossing the electricity line turns a war into a civilisational collapse. But everything below that line, every headquarters, every launcher, every proxy command post, every production facility, continues to be degraded methodically, precisely, and relentlessly.
The pause protects Iranian civilians from their own government’s decision to start a war. The strikes protect Israeli, Gulf, and American civilians from that same government’s decision to continue it.

A monkey can do it.
BREAKING: The United States under President Trump has quietly activated the largest energy redirection in modern history. Executive actions, fast-tracked permits in Alaska, expanded Gulf of Mexico leases, accelerated shale development in the Permian, and strategic partnerships unlocking Venezuelan reserves are now flowing American and allied barrels directly to Pacific nations and Europe—bypassing the mined Strait of Hormuz and the IRGC tollbooth entirely.
Every new barrel originates from secure, sovereign-controlled sources. The United States produces over 13.5 million barrels per day domestically, with the Permian shale alone delivering 6.6 million—light, sweet crude that needs no Hormuz transit. Alaska is ramping toward record levels as new fields come online. The Gulf of Mexico pushes toward 2 million barrels per day. And Venezuela, holder of the world’s largest proven reserves at over 300 billion barrels, sits just a short tanker ride away in the Western Hemisphere, now aligned under American-led investment and production revival.
No 21-mile chokepoint. No IRGC permission slip. No $2 million yuan tolls. These molecules sail under U.S. Navy escort if needed, through open Pacific routes or Atlantic lanes controlled by allies. Tankers leave Texas, Louisiana, Alaska’s North Slope, or Venezuelan ports and head straight to Japan, South Korea, the Philippines, Germany, or the Netherlands—reliable, predictable, and priced without Middle East volatility.
The transmission is direct. Hormuz stays contested. Global prices spike on fear. Importers scramble. But the alliance of producers that Trump’s team has assembled—U.S. shale efficiency, Alaskan and Gulf expansion, Venezuelan heavy crude unlocked for Western Hemisphere refining and export—creates a parallel supply chain. Europe locks in steady American cargoes. Pacific allies, facing 95-98% Middle East reliance like the Philippines, receive diverted U.S. and Venezuelan barrels that never touch the Gulf. Diesel for fishing fleets and jeepneys. Fertilizer from secure natural gas. No planting windows closing.
This is the eighth major energy realignment since the conflict escalated. The importers declare emergencies. The producers with secure, non-Hormuz supply do not. The United States doesn’t just buffer the shock—it exports the buffer. Russia sells at premium. China pays yuan tolls where allowed. India negotiates passage. But the fast-growing list of nations now sourcing from the American-led Western Hemisphere network includes Japan, South Korea, the Philippines, Germany, Poland, and others peeling off from traditional Middle East dependence.
The war is between Iran and Israel. The strait is between Iran and Oman. The toll booth is run by the IRGC. And the new supply contracts are signed in Houston, Anchorage, Caracas, and Washington. Seven thousand kilometres from the nearest mine. Billions of barrels under allied control. No executive order declaring emergency—because the molecules already left port weeks ago, bound for allies who no longer need to beg at Hormuz.
The molecules do not check passports. Chokepoint bypassed. America and its partners just built the detour—and they are filling it.
🇵🇭🇷🇺 | The Philippines is set to import Russian oil next week for the first time in five years, days after the government has announced it's intent. The Russian vessel with 100,000 tonnes (about 750,000 barrels) of ESPO Blend oil is on its way to the Bataan terminal, Philippines.
Economist and former NEDA chief Winnie Monsod posed an alternative to suspending excise tax on fuel products: taxing the 50 wealthiest billionaires in the country.
Monsod warned that suspending excise taxes would leave the government short on funds for its aid programs, noting that the same failed in 2022 when fuel prices also spiked. She said this would later on hurt, rather than help, the bottom half of Filipinos.
The economics professor added that the "wealth tax" during crises would allow the country's richest to "pay back a little bit" to the Filipino people.

🇺🇸🇪🇨Ecuador launched a massive military crackdown on drug cartels over the weekend, backed by U.S. logistical support, targeting criminal strongholds in Guayas, Los Ríos, and Santo Domingo de los Tsáchilas.
A nationwide curfew from 11 PM to 5 AM is in effect in coastal provinces until March 30, with 75,000 police and soldiers deployed to dismantle cartel networks that handle roughly 70% of cocaine flowing from Colombia and Peru.

BREAKING:
Ecuador’s conservative president Daniel Naboa has deployed 75,000 soldiers and policemen in a major anti-gang offensive, targeting areas of the country where gangs now control daily life.
The number of homicides surged over 30% last year and his reached record-highs.
Nighttime curfews from 11 p.m. to 5 a.m. will be in place in those areas until March 31, with checkpoints blocking most traffic except for emergencies.
President Noboa was re-elected on a hardline platform and wants to implement El Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele’s hardline methods.
"Khamenei, one of the most evil people in History, is dead. This is not only Justice for the people of Iran, but for all Great Americans, and those people from many Countries throughout the World, that have been killed or mutilated by Khamenei..." - President Donald J. Trump
Overnight, on President Trump’s orders, the Department of War commenced OPERATION EPIC FURY — the most lethal, most complex, and most-precision aerial operation in history.
The Iranian regime had their chance, yet refused to make a deal — and now they are suffering the consequences. For almost fifty years, Iran has targeted and killed Americans, always seeking the world’s most powerful weapons to further their radical cause. Last night, unlike any previous president, President Trump began dealing with this cancer.
We will not tolerate powerful missiles targeting the American people. Those missiles will be destroyed, along with Iran’s missile production. The Iranian navy will be destroyed. And, as President Trump has said his entire life, Iran will never have a nuclear weapon.
The United States did not start this conflict, but we will finish it. If you kill or threaten Americans anywhere in the world — as Iran has — then we will hunt you down, and we will kill you.
Our warriors are the best in the world, and they are fully unleashed to achieve our objectives. May God’s providence protect them in this vital mission.
