@GoffredoBuccini Quando Maduro ha dato petrolio gratis a Cuba, alla Cina a 20 dollari sotto il Brent, gratis a Rosneft per pagare debiti, era "sovranità". Invece l'accordo di Trump, con royalties anche per il Venezuela è "furto". Interessante.

Let me get this straight.

When Maduro gave oil to the Cuban dictator for free, sold it to China at $20 below Brent, handed it free to Rosneft to pay debts, and let $21 billion go uncollected. That was "sovereignty."

Now, a $100 billion investment and a 30% royalty that will benefit Venezuelan citizens for the first time in decades, is considered "stealing."

Fascinating.

Let me get this straight.

When China, Russia and the Maduro thugs stole the oil from Venezuela it was sovereignty, according to Chris.

When the US reaches a deal with transparent conditions to invest and sell openly, that will give billions of royalties to the Venezuela people, it is stealing.

Please.

@Ricchei Direi tutte e tre le cose. E quando dice "magistrati indipendenti", lui che è andato all'ANM, fa pure ridere.

Kicked off an international working trip with our team, focused on advancing our new initiatives in digitalization and defense tech.

First stop — a meeting with Italian Minister of Defense @GuidoCrosetto.

I expressed my gratitude to Guido for his personal support and for the offer to serve as his Advisor on Defense Innovations. I am deeply thankful for this trust and strategic partnership. In this role, I will assist Italy in adopting modern warfare technologies, enhancing its defense sector, and adapting to emerging global security challenges.

Ukraine and our team possess unique, real-world experience in high-tech warfare that we are eager to share with our allies. At the same time, my primary focus remains unchanged: I continue my work in Ukraine on core projects that strengthen our defense and help attract international resources.

During our meeting, we discussed drones, autonomous systems, air defense, and building out the defense tech ecosystem.
The future of defense belongs to nations that can rapidly test and scale new solutions by pairing cutting-edge technology with robust manufacturing. Ukraine’s experience can serve as the foundation for Europe’s new defense model.

Our international trip continues. Ahead are key meetings with partners regarding digitalization, defense tech, and launching new collaborative projects.

Una quarantina di giorni fa ho raccontato di come e quanto @FedorovMykhailo abbia trasformato l’Ucraina in un autentico Stato digitale, interconnettendo la dimensione civile-amministrativa con quella militare attraverso l’innovazione tecnologica, ormai dual-use.
Ottima notizia abbia accettato l’invito del ministro @GuidoCrosetto per fare da advisor, visto che ad oggi l’Ucraina è la Silicon Valley nel cuore d’Europa

Reports of an Iran-Oman deal to regulate the Strait of Hormuz are false. Iran lies.

It’s a shame Miran is not back at the Fed. We need his common sense approach, it’s sorely lacking.

The Keynesian Group think at the Fed want rate hikes.

Think about that, as inflation cools, into a supply shock, with housing in a recession, which goes against basic economic theory. Can’t make this stuff up.

@GianMassimoUsai Esatto. Il punto è proprio quello, ovvero evitare che si crei una casta che abbia il pieno accesso e un'altra da accontentare con quattro token. Per giunta ad un prezzo non da poco.

@LaVeritaWeb @durezzadelviver @durezzadelviver mi ha bloccato, non so cosa abbia scritto di male. Se può sbloccarmi.

[Davide dell'Oglio @Davidedellog]

@LaVeritaWeb @durezzadelviver La sovranità non c'entra. La questione riguarda l'alleggerimento della Fed (che deve tagliare i tassi) e il supporto al mercato azionario. E ciò può avvenire solo con un maggior coordinamento col Tesoro.

@giuslit Infatti il riarmo non serve a fare la guerra alla Russia ma per compensare il minor impegno americano in Europa. Gli USA ci chiedono il riarmo dal 2014 ed è tempo che l'Europa diventi adulta, visto che Zio Sam non ci sarà per sempre.

@michelemassa02 Trump sta creando un blocco economico trilingue nordamericano da Panama alla Groenlandia, sul modello UE. E proprio gli europei non lo capiscono.

[Davide dell'Oglio @Davidedellog]

@agambella Non è provocazione. Trump sta creando un blocco economico trilingue nordamericano da Panama alla Groenlandia sul modello UE. E andrà avanti anche coi presidenti successivi, ma più lentamente.

[Davide dell'Oglio @Davidedellog]

@Ricchei Non è pazzo, è solo show. Un po' come faceva Berlusconi. I veri problemi per gli USA sono i DSA e la destra woke di Tucker Carlson, non Trump, seppur il suo modo di fare sia a volte sgradevole.

🚨 HOLY CRAP! Treasury Sec. Scott Bessent is reportedly gearing up to REVOKE the tax-exempt status of nonprofits including George Soros' Open Society Foundation, CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations) and the SPLC — NYP

The operation might result in CIVIL PENALTIES too

Make it happen, Secretary Bessent! 🔥

The move could target MULTIPLE leftist nonprofits because they ABUSE their tax-exempt status.

This is MASSIVELY overdue!

This was made possible by a Trump executive order from last year. Bessent recently said:

"Treasury is expanding its efforts to identify organizations that abuse charitable and nonprofit structures as vehicles for illicit finance."

"We are examining where tax exempt status has been exploited, where charitable entities have become financial conduits for foreign influence activity and how those entrusted with stewardship of these organizations have instead enabled violence, where the evidence leads we will not hesitate to follow and of course we will hold these organizations, officers, directors, accountable and just as financial institution must know their clients they must know their grantees."

"That work is well underway."

The amount of work that went into making sure Iran doesn’t weaponize the Strait to provoke a gigantic economic crisis and preventing it from involving other countries to expand the theater is very much under appreciated.
