I had Claude analyze how our Debt is attributed by decisions/policy by each Congress since 1980 (Taxes, Wars, Medicare, SocSec, ACA, etc.). The results are clear. Democrats have been better in terms of 'Debt Attribution' AND 'Net National Benefit'

So, let me get this straight... After Trump's defeat in the mid-terms; Iran, after 8.5 months of war that destroyed their Country & economy, decided to make a deal with Trump for a measly $8B to open the straight & allow inspectors. I'm calling BS #oott

It's too late for Trump to make a deal w/Iran for sake of the election. 50M ppl already voted & many ppl vote the morning day of. So that being the case, Trump will attack post-election & the bigger his loss the more ruthless he'll be & the more damage Iran will do in return.

So... Give your kids extra kisses tonight before bed. We have a Cluster B malignant narcissist that will have absorbed a colossal narcissistic injury. His intolerable humiliation will lead to petulant anger, irrational thought & a God complex to restore his inner self image.

US Strategic Petroleum Reserve is only 30 million barrels above it's statutory minimum of 252 million barrels. Global inventories effect the elasticity of oil prices... expect more volatility to oil prices on Iran War headlines. The cushion is gone.

The Iran War in a nutshell: We're watching a game of chicken. Iran figures: "we've come this far, why accept this destruction w/o humiliating Trump & getting a lot" Trump: "I can't give in & look weak, but I can't go all out w/o destroying the US and World economy" #oott

$100 Billion spent fighting the war, 100s of Billions more on increased prices, soldiers killed and Injured, dead civilians, 100s of Billions in damage to US bases abroad, and the loss of perception of absolute US military might.

Trump's War will go down in History as the biggest foreign policy strategic blunder in US History. Prosecuted on lies, hubris, impulsiveness, corruption & greed.

BRENT crude spread widening over WTI... seems like Brent trading on fundamentals, while WTI trading off of technical chart pattern. If WTI breaks out of this resistance line, does it quickly start narrowing the spread? Spread close to $14 now. #oott

With mid-terms likely lost for Trump, he will decide that to win he'll have to lie & claim 'rigged' as opposed to still hoping for a legitimate win. If he concedes that, he may not care on timing of attacks & may just go for it out of anger as he has nothing left to lose. #oott

BREAKING: Jared Kushner’s hacked iPhone revealed that Kushner promised MBS and MBZ he would push their agenda with Trump if they participated in a secret fund, with the two royals initially discussing over $10 billion before ultimately placing at least $2 billion into accounts for him, according to a Vanity Fair excerpt from Princes and Thieves. The revelation lands as Kushner remains deeply involved in Iran war diplomacy, while Tehran has separately accused him and Steve Witkoff of pocketing $9 billion through market manipulation.

NEW AD: Have you seen these anti-Talarico attack ads? Elon Musk paid for nearly all of them. The world's first trillionaire knows if he drags the most corrupt politician in Texas across the finish line, Ken Paxton will owe him everything. @ElonMusk: Texas is not for sale.

For decades, the president has claimed charitable deductions on golf courses he never gave away. Now, facing one of the most significant tax bills of his life, he’s pushing the scheme even further—and appears to be using the presidency to get away with it.

I’ll stipulate that Trump is an agent of Putin. Go down the checklist. 1. Destroyed the Western alliance? Putin wanted that. 2. Threatened a NATO ally over Greenland? Putin wanted that. 3. Pulled out of the intermediate nuclear pact? Putin wanted that. 4. Withdrawing 25-40,000 troops from Western Europe while Russian bellicosity is rising? Putin wanted that. 5. Russian satellites giving coordinates to Iranians killing our soldiers, and his response is “they kill us, we kill them”? What American president says that? I think he’s been compromised. The election of Donald Trump may be the greatest foreign policy success in post-Czarist Russian history.
