Scott Bessent just named the British Virgin Islands on worldwide TV.
@sjkokinda: the real target isn’t Iran. It’s the offshore money machine — BVI to Hong Kong.
Lutnick on CNBC's Squawk Box today "And I said to one of the ministers, are you actually trying to blow this up?"
"And his answer to me was, I'm not allowed to say that. And they blew it up for political reasons only."
"They did it for politics."
Kernan "So GDP has been either flat or down... I think you've made the point that it might be more about his and his party's political interests than for the people of Canada for what's going on."
Lutnick "You know, you pointed out all the time, they've got good people, they've got great resources... Why underperform?"
" Ontario, with the great city of Toronto, would be last out of our 51st states.... They just don't perform per capita because they don't have the right tools, they don't have the right regulation, they don't have the right leadership." @howardlutnick@JoeSquawk
@AlexNowrasteh I call🐂💩.
DHS/CBP is paying for illegals to self-deport. Any "inhumanity of immigration enforcement" suffered is self-inflicted pain. Period. Full Stop.
DC Democrats spent decades propping up socialists and narcoterrorists in our own backyard. President Trump is the only president who had the guts to defund USAID, stop sending taxpayer dollars to socialists, and smash the Maduro cartel that spent decades flooding our country with drugs while funneling oil to China, Cuba, and Russia.
Thanks to @POTUS’s leadership, our Western Hemisphere is safe, socialists are on the run, and everyday Americans are reaping the rewards. That’s the Donroe Doctrine in action.
The War in Iran is the most perfect victory in all of military history.
Enemy navy sunk. Air force shot down. Missiles and drones exhausted. War chest bare.
We get: Hamas, Hezbollah, &c defunded. China out of oil.
We do not get: New York nuked.
Fewer servicemen lost (18) than the average lost in training accidents over the same six month period (200).
And even six months is not accurate. The war was over months ago. This is a siege, waiting for the fanatics to starve, or their serfs to rise up.
So name it. Name for me the war where more was gained at less cost in less time again a serious foe who posed a real threat. Any war, current or ancient. Name it.
The X Safety team conducted an investigation into suspected Chinese inauthentic accounts involved in influence operations:
We identified a bot farm of approximately 200,000 accounts. Within this farm, we found 200 accounts posting in a manner that could manipulate a legitimate debate about American AI and energy policy.
These posts contained claims that AI data centers are driving up household electricity prices and straining the grid. Others included AI-generated cartoons that depicted data-center operators enriching themselves at the public's expense.
We remain committed to maintaining an open and authentic platform where people debate topics of public interest. We take seriously any attempts to undermine the integrity of the global town square and suspend accounts that violate our Authenticity policy.
The United States has the deepest, most dynamic, and most liquid markets in the history of the world.
@POTUS’ vision for Parallel Prosperity on Main Street and Wall Street has guided our efforts to right-size and refocus financial regulation on material risk, not social agendas.
Under the President’s leadership, we are securing and safeguarding the U.S. banking system while ensuring it remains the gold standard for innovation globally.
Let's be perfectly clear -
They took Maduro alive.
Then they got the bookkeeper and his records.
They already had their former head of intel.
They KNOW who was paid when and for what.
Big Cheat is powerless to stop it.

.@SecScottBessent: "The Democrats torched the American people—21.5% inflation during Biden’s term... A study from MIT shows that almost 50% of the inflation came from the out-of-control spending that went on then. We had a price level problem. We are bringing prices down... Core inflation is very tame.”
This is one of the most important moments ever aired on CNBC.
Billionaire investor Chamath Palihapitiya says the media lied to millions of Americans about President Trump, and that after going back to the original source material, he realized he had been completely misled about Trump’s character.
PALIHAPITIYA: “The reality is that most of us were lied to by the media about President Trump.”
“And if you just go back to the source material, you should take away two things.”
“One, he didn’t say half the things he said, and two, why did these other people just fabricate what they wanted to say so that they could essentially assassinate his character?”
“I think that that second thing is completely unacceptable in America, and there’s still been no repercussions, really.”
“I took the time to learn about it. I admitted where…you know, the way that I met him was, I admitted on the pod, which, you know, has millions of viewers.”
“And I said, I got it totally wrong because I went and I watched Charlottesville.”
“And, you know, the first person to call me? President Trump.”
“And I got to know him and I put the phone down, I called my wife, and I said, we got it TOTALLY, totally wrong. We were lied to.”
“And then I got to know him and he is fantastic!”
