Ultimate Trump play would be using 100% tariffs on everyone in order to get war(s) stopped. No one buys Russian oil. Waive export sanctions EO’s as Tom noted. US being the only buyer allowed or tariff. US now controls the world oil trade, by this interpretation of the law.

[Tom Wright @thomaswright08]

A few minutes ago, the House of Representatives passed the Russia sanctions bill for a full vote sometime tomorrow. Most supporters of Ukraine will welcome this but for me, it's a mistake. The bill doesn't mandate new sanctions (Trump has a waiver over all measures) but it does give Trump sweeping new tariff powers which he will almost certainly abuse to go after America's allies and partners. I've written up my concerns in a new piece for the @TheAtlantic.

At this point I believe that KFC HQ is just afraid to even say anything to KFC Spain.

@tmftagenda21 @DrJackKruse Well the debt is securitized rn it’s just getting another distribution (customer line). Any bank can now issue dollars as long as they have 1:1 in treasury bills. Instead of the FED printing money banks and businesses can too. It’s all tracked by US Treasury instead of off shore

@Fiat_iceberg So you’re saying Canada should lose money on the Bonds while getting every Canadian kicked off Visa/MC while losing our only export market? We don’t have a nuke relax, we bearly have a military.

No need to have a PhD to explain that we’re in The Gilded Age again. Instead of robber barons we have cloud barons. Data is the new oil. Automation and importing cheap labour will keep Wage Growth in a range while profits increase. Tech Profits higher = S&P higher. Simple

[Guilherme Tavares @i3_invest]

Can any PhD explain this to me like I’m 5?

@AXChristoforou How Britain gets back in the EU without a referendum vote on Brexit decision. Very clever on their part. The shock therapy is gonna come from the IMF not the politicians, it can’t be voted on.

Data centers may end up being the biggest missallocation of capital in human history (bigger even than windmills). Trillions to tweek order of videos in reels, or spy on you to better target adds

@AutismCapital Did you see the whales washing up ashore in Japan? Terrible. But WINDMILLS are even worse for our great whales—yes, our great whales, really the world's great whales if you think about it. Windmills are a disaster for them, far worse than tsunamis.

We’re living in the best timeline 😂 rates going up 0.31% or 0.32% in the next meeting, fuck the dot plot.

Chinese citizens who are retirement age ~21% of the population is getting 1.6% on their savings and losing money on real estate. US and UK retires get 5% and can sell their real estate to all the new imports. The two systems have different definitions of respecting elders.

[William Huo @wmhuo168]

China has stopped buying U.S. debt. The dollar system is cracking. This isn’t just an economic shift. It’s the end of the old world order. Here's what comes next.

Why not just ask the owner of the Atlantic if you’re that interested in answers? Steve Jobs is turning in his grave knowing his money went to fund this propaganda outlet.

“If the Epstein scandal teaches us anything, it is that America needs a dedicated and decently funded group of people whose job is not just to ask questions, but to find answers,” @helenlewis writes. “Let’s call them journalists.” https://t.co/8f8YbrWf6h

What I think is really going on here, and many of you already know, is that Powell hasn’t kept rates high just to fight inflation or because he’s late, as Trump likes to say. He’s holding them high to maximize strategic leverage. By keeping the dollar scarce and real yields elevated, Powell is applying immense pressure on the global system, particularly on BRICS-aligned nations, dollar indebted economies, and those flirting with de-dollarization. This isn’t about monetary policy in the conventional sense; it’s about geopolitical positioning. The longer the Fed starves the world of easy dollars, the more the global economy becomes strained and fractured until, at the right moment, a pivot triggers a rush back into USD assets, setting off a powerful dollar snapback.

And that’s the contradiction Trump hasn’t addressed. If he truly wanted rate cuts, he wouldn’t be layering on tariffs, trade friction, and policy choices that fuel cost pressures and complicate the disinflation narrative. His actions are at the very least short term inflationary at the margin and give Powell political cover to stay higher for longer. That might look like misalignment, but in reality, it may be two sides of the same coin. Trump wants to appear like the rate cut hero, while Powell engineers the global squeeze that sets the stage for a reassertion of dollar dominance. When that snapback hits, when the Fed finally cuts, it won’t crash the dollar. It will accelerate capital flight from weaker currencies, break fragile sovereigns, and lock global capital back into U.S.-controlled rails. That’s the play. Everything else is noise.

Epstein wasn’t working for Mossad as an agent he was working for the City of London and the owner of Israel. Alan Dershowitz said he was introduced to Epstein by Lady Rothschild. Peter “Prince of Darkness” was the director of Russia’s Sistema; their BlackRock/Berkshire equivalent

[Promethean Action @PrometheanActn]

Britain's new ambassador, Peter Mandelson, isn't just a diplomat—he's an architect of a secret war against Trump's economic revolution. Uncover the hidden network, from London to the ghost of Epstein, and how they plan to dismantle America's future. Speaker: @sjkokinda

New ISO standard on Monday July 14th which coincidentally is also Orangemen’s day in Canada. Will a FED chair still be needed then or does the Orange man run it?

Seems like Trump traded the Epstein list for the British mandate.

BBB passed and all these old wallets just woke up. Strange. 80,009 is also a strange amount as well, another 17.

[Lookonchain @lookonchain]

Currently, all 8 wallets woke up after 14 years of dormancy and transferred out 80,009 $BTC($8.69B).
