Interference in the oil markets has led to complete confusion amongst US businesses. They have no idea how to even set prices because of the antics in the oil futures market this summer. These interventions have screwed up price allocation across the board. 🇺🇸

A bunch of Saudis got mad at me the other day for saying Saudi Arabia aligns itself with Israel & collaborates with them behind the scenes while giving lip service to Palestine. Yall are a bunch of booty boppin, Labubu ass, Dubai chocolate eating, Western puppets. Completely cucked by Israel and the US, while pretending to represent Islam. And that’s why you’re getting smoked by barefoot Zaydi Shia Muslims from the mountains of Yemen, even with all those U.S. weapons and all that Israeli intel.
BREAKING: 🇮🇱🇸🇦 Israel provided Saudi Arabia with intel assistance as Houthi attacks on Riyadh’s assets continue, per the Jerusalem Post It began after Mohammed bin Salman requested assistance a few days ago.

The oil bulls are having a moment, but going long Brent at $110 is a fool's game. At these levels, markets are pricing a permanent shutdown of the East-West pipeline and that's not what we're dealing with. Watch my live stream from yesterday on all this: robinjbrooks.substack.com/p/…

What’s fascinating is that there is a direct way out of this war for both Saudi Arabia and the United States and their suffering Gulf allies that could even avert the looming economic catastrophe: End the wars and treat Yemen and Iran like sovereign nations with an equal place in the world. (And also stop Israel’s attacks on southern Lebanon.) That’s it. That’s basically all they’d have to do. Just stop insisting on domination. For the U.S., such a move is inconceivable, but we also can’t keep going on like this.
Contrary to those who said it wouldn’t happen, Ansarullah, commonly known as the Houthis, has fully entered the war and rapidly climbed the escalation ladder in a consequential way, after largely sitting out both the initial 40-day war and the 13-day US-Iran fight over Hormuz. Meanwhile, Iraqi groups and Hezbollah have been engaged from the start. Iran’s “unity of fronts” has taken shape: distinct actors pursuing their own interests, but collectively widening pressure to maximize leverage for a favorable settlement. That includes, per their statements, ending the US-Saudi blockades and regional war, durable sanctions relief, US military withdrawal & full, upfront implementation of the June MOU.

just like the Yarvin/BAP sphere pushed Peter Thiel’s choice for VP, we’re now seeing fuentes and the spencer crowd push Bannon (who is Epstein’s top Goy) and his ilk. It’s so simple even a Japanese talk show understands the mechanics.

Virtually every aspect of life under right-wing rule is worse, but right-wingers tell themselves it’s all worth it because in their minds they’re winning an imaginary race war. And this is the mainstream view on the right, from anonymous posters to Claremont and Heritage, The Federalist and The Blaze. As long as these idiots can tell themselves and each other that the race war in their imaginations is being won, it’s all worth it. The Americans killed in the Iran war. The government being reduced to one family’s personal casino. The new AI powered surveillance state. The fact that their children, if they have any, will inherit an uglier, less prosperous and more unstable country. All of it can be justified and rationalized through this framing.

You MUST watch this video. It will tell you everything you need to know about the twisted fantasies of the far-right in Latin America. They dream of their own colonization, of subjugating their own people to the Monroe Doctrine, of becoming little pawns in Donald Trump’s big game. These are the stakes of Brazil’s election next month. Either the continent’s largest nation remains a sovereign democracy, or these psychopaths hand the keys over to Trump, Rubio, and Hegseth. Darkness is falling on the Western Hemisphere. If we care at all about the fate of democracy, then that Miami mafia must be stopped.

The Democratic party is attempting to throttle their electoral momentum. While they want a win, they dont want a win big enough that they have no excuses for failing to do what they've implied to their alleged base they will do. They dont want to adopt an Anti-War or Anti-Zionist stance. Their base wants that, so they want a win but narrow enough that some designated villians can thwart everything. They want to win, but just small enough that John Fetterman is the Kirsten Sinema or Joe Mansion, or Joe Lieberman to avoid having to deliver anything to their base and have a plausible excuse.
Nancy Pelosi comments on the Iran War: "Our country is at war. We always root for our country under any circumstance. So let's get this done, Mr. President."

Several countries are soon going to be facing regime change risks that match or exceed that of Iran in the Middle East if this War doesn’t end soon… Saudi is getting crushed, Iraq is increasingly dicey, we may already be there in Syria… The pain tolerance and national unity disparity between Iran and their neighboring Gulf countries is enormous.

Malaysia’s position is clear and unequivocal. We will not allow our country to be used as a conduit for any shipment that supports or contributes to Israel’s military capabilities and its atrocities against Palestinians and other innocent lives. Any suspicious shipment will be subject to inspection and investigation in accordance with Malaysian law. Where a violation is established, decisive action will be taken. ANWAR IBRAHIM

MORE BREAKING: Increasing indications that Saudi Arabia will be cancelling BOTH September AND October deliveries of oil. If this proves to be true (September is confirmed), we can expect the global energy markets to reach the $120+/Barrel territory… This is NOT SUSTAINABLE.
MAJOR: Saudi Arabia is CANCELLING shipments of crude to Europe after the catastrophic destruction of the Saudi East-West Pipeline in recent days, paired with Ansarallah strikes against various Saudi infrastructure.

American hegemony is over. First, Gaza ended whatever was left of liberal democratic pretensions. Then Iran exposed the US military as a paper tiger.
It’s easier for people to imagine the end of the world than an end to American hegemony.

Robert Kraft believed players had a right to criticize the United States, but when a supporting artist was mildly critical of a foreign government, his support for peaceful protests goes out the window
Macklemore says Robert Kraft — who owns Gillette Stadium, where Macklemore & Ed Sheeran were to perform later this month — called Sheeran. Kraft rallied other owners together behind an ultimatum for Sheeran: if Macklemore stays on the tour, you won't be allowed in our venues.

This is one of the many perverse ironies of the Macklemore situation. If Ed Sheeran's opening act had waved an Israeli flag and proclaimed his love of Israel -- and then a cartel of rich venue owners banned him from appearing -- we would have a two-month orgy of people screaming ANTI-SEMITISM, with Mike Johnson holding emergency House hearings featuring Jonathan Greenblatt and Dana Bash and Jake Tapper crying with Van Jones on CNN about how dangerous America has become for Jews.
Replying to @ggreenwald
Imagine if venue owners got together to ban a Jewish person from performing at their venues??? WE WOULD HAVE WW3
