Two weeks ago, Brent oil futures were in the 80s; the president was telling reporters that the war was "very complete" and that Iran was begging to negotiate; and WH defenders were claiming the war was "over" and accusing commodity analysts of being little bedwetting babies.
Today's Brent is well over 100, LNG and other commodities are doing even worse, and the Pentagon is requesting $200 billion to wrap things up.
Sure, it's still early. I guess anything can happen in the next 24 hours. But here and now, the bedwetters were the prophets.
I love the folks replying to this and quote tweeting this claiming ‘Elon took my blue check’. Erm, he gave it to me yesterday - while lying about me paying for verification - and, like many others, I promptly found a way to get rid of it.

@luxeprogressive The way around the filibuster is called ‘budget reconciliation’ and it can only be used for things that are taxing and spending and is an add on to the annual budget. The budget itself I believe needs to pass the 60 vote threshold.
