    The Shooter’s Manifesto: Christian Nationalism Still On The Rise?

    The Shooter’s Manifesto: Christian Nationalism Still On The Rise?

    There was definitely a Christian Nationalist angle being played out with regard to the White House Correspondents’ Dinner shooter’s manifesto. United States ruler, and Christian Nationalist, Donald Trump described the suspect as a “sick man” who “hated Christians,” while dismissing the accusations, in an interview with CBS’s ‘60 Minutes’.

    The Real Threat Is Artificial Credit, Not Artificial Intelligence

    The Real Threat Is Artificial Credit, Not Artificial Intelligence

    Artificial intelligence is rapidly becoming one of the most capital-intensive industries in history. Consider: Semiconductor fabrication plants cost tens of billions of dollars. Massive data centers consume extraordinary amounts of electricity, sending power bills soaring. Specialized engineering talent commands premium wages. (Although the median salary for an AI professional is $160K annually, the top 1 percent of AI researchers receive compensation packages exceeding $1 million). Global supply chains must coordinate rare materials, precision manufacturing, and complex infrastructure.

    Iran Says “No Room” For Talks As US Seeks To “Partition Country, Take Oil”

    Iran Says “No Room” For Talks As US Seeks To “Partition Country, Take Oil”

    Iran’s military and political leadership has reportedly pledged allegiance to Mojtaba Khamenei, who, as we reported, was named Sunday to replace his slain father, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, as the country’s new supreme leader. The relatively young 56-year-old is not some Delcy Rodriguez character, as he’s a military veteran of the eight-year Iran-Iraq war and saw his wife Zahra killed in an Israeli airstrike. He’s said to be the favored IRGC choice and more hardline than his father, Ali Khamenei.

    U.S. War Hawk: We Will “Make a TON Of Money” Off The War

    U.S. War Hawk: We Will “Make a TON Of Money” Off The War

    United States senator and infamous war hawk Lindsey Graham has said that the ruling class is going to “make a ton of money” off the war it just started with Iran. If the U.S. is successful in toppling the Iranian government, the U.S. will control almost a third of the world’s oil and make record profits.

    Trump Downplays Oil Prices In Pro-War Post

    Trump Downplays Oil Prices In Pro-War Post

    United States President Donald Trump has downplayed the economic impact of $100 a barrel oil as a “very small price to pay” in order to keep up the war efforts. “ONLY FOOLS WOULD THINK DIFFERENTLY!” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post.

    The Economic Impact Of This Horrifying War With Iran Is Not Going To Be Pretty

    The Economic Impact Of This Horrifying War With Iran Is Not Going To Be Pretty

    There is no way to get around it. We are facing a major global economic disruption, and the longer this war goes on, the worse it will get. As I have reminded my readers on numerous occasions, our entire way of life is predicated on cheap energy, and the Middle East is the most important energy-producing region in the entire world. Traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has been paralyzed, and energy infrastructure has been under attack by both sides. In fact, this morning Tehran was “covered in thick black clouds of smoke” after a refinery and multiple oil depots were destroyed…

    Iran’s new Ayatollah threatens to “shed Trump’s blood” in live address

    Iran’s new Ayatollah threatens to “shed Trump’s blood” in live address

    The United States, in lockstep with Israel, has ignited a direct military conflict with Iran, a move that has triggered an aggressive and catastrophic retaliation, which is currently justifying a sweeping expansion of war. The U.S. targeting Iranian leadership and sinking an Iranian frigate in international waters has elicited blood-curdling vows of revenge from Tehran’s highest clerical authorities.

    “This Will Bring Down Global Economy”: Qatar’s Energy Minister’s Warning About Hormuz Chokepoint

    “This Will Bring Down Global Economy”: Qatar’s Energy Minister’s Warning About Hormuz Chokepoint

    Brent crude futures are on track for their biggest weekly gain since the early days of Covid, with the move now exceeding the 20% weekly spike at the start of the Russia-Ukraine war, as the U.S.-Israeli air campaign against Iran, Operation Epic Fury, has tipped the Gulf into an energy crisis, freezing commercial traffic through the Strait of Hormuz and pushing some regional oil and gas production offline.

    3 Grand Ayatollahs Have Declared Global Jihad Against The United States And Israel

    3 Grand Ayatollahs Have Declared Global Jihad Against The United States And Israel

    You can negotiate an end to a military conflict between two nations, but you can’t negotiate an end to global jihad. The radical Shiite Muslims who rule Iran are full of rage, and what they want more than anything else is revenge. In response to the death of Ayatollah Khamenei, 3 different grand ayatollahs in Iran have declared global jihad against the United States and Israel.

    The Window Is Closing: How the Iran Conflict Just Unleashed a Global Famine Trigger

    The Window Is Closing: How the Iran Conflict Just Unleashed a Global Famine Trigger

    The United States and Israel have struck Iran, and the consequences are already cascading far beyond the Middle East. This is not merely another regional skirmish; it is the ignition of a global food catastrophe that will unfold with terrifying speed. The Strait of Hormuz, a critical artery for global energy and fertilizer shipments, is effectively closed. This single act has severed a massive portion of the world’s natural gas supply, the foundational feedstock for modern agriculture. If nothing changes, the price of staple foods in American and European grocery stores is projected to skyrocket by 8-20% by the end of this year, with far worse to follow in 2027 as depleted reserves and failed harvests compound the crisis.

    Trump’s Hormuz Escort Order is a Desperate, Deadly Gambit That Will Sink America

    Trump’s Hormuz Escort Order is a Desperate, Deadly Gambit That Will Sink America

    The order came via a social media post from a commander-in-chief who has just set the Middle East ablaze. On March 3, 2026, President Donald Trump announced he had directed the U.S. Navy to begin escorting commercial oil tankers through the Strait of Hormuz and ordered a federal agency to provide political risk insurance for all Gulf maritime trade [1][2]. I believe this is not a strategic masterstroke but the frantic thrashing of an administration that started a war it cannot finish. It is a desperate, deadly gambit that will not reopen the world’s most critical energy chokepoint; it will instead risk sinking American ships, shattering American credibility, and risking global economic catastrophe.
