That thought crossed my mind. If so I hope the wrath is ours or God’s in the end.

True. Unfortunately, we no longer abide by the Constitution and we don’t have a Supreme Court that upholds it.
We are a semi-facist oligarchy run by a president and Congress that are captive to a foreign country and trans humanist tech oligarchs that intend to create the world’s greatest surveillance state.

Hope for the United States died in 2026.

Now prepare for wrath.

I’m not pointing out another stock, that said they’re likely talking about Fervo energy case if anyone reading this wonders what company their talking about that uses thermal heat but the unintended consequences of the war with Iran.

Two months ago, the United States went to war with Iran. We blockaded the Strait of Hormuz. We froze another $25 billion of a sovereign nation’s foreign reserves. And we showed unequivocally that the U.S. dollar is not a neutral asset. It’s not the first time either. We weaponized the dollar against Russia in 2022. The lesson for every other government holding dollars was the same: hold U.S. paper, and Washington decides when you can use it. And the world has been listening. For 20 years — from 1990 to 2009 — central banks were net sellers of gold. They didn’t want it. They preferred Treasuries. Then in 2010, the trend reversed. From 2010 to 2021, central banks bought an average of 473 tonnes of gold per year. Then we weaponized the dollar against Russia. In 2022 – when the U.S. and Europe froze $300 billion of Russian central bank reserves — global central banks bought 1,136 tonnes of gold. The highest single-year total on record. Then 1,051 tonnes in 2023. Then 1,045 tonnes in 2024. Then 863 tonnes in 2025. And in Q1 of this year alone, 244 tonnes. But here’s what almost nobody is reporting: According to the World Gold Council, 57% of central bank gold buying is now unreported. More than half. Hidden from public disclosure. Which means the true number being moved out of dollars and into gold is closer to 2,000 tonnes a year — and we’re only seeing the part that governments are willing to admit to. I predicted this would happen years ago. In 2011, I released a documentary called The End of America. More than 40 million people watched it. The financial press mocked it. The mainstream media called it preposterous. I made several predictions: That the dollar’s run as the world’s reserve currency was ending. That the American middle class was being quietly strip-mined by a monetary system rigged in favor of Washington and Wall Street. That the country’s social fabric was coming apart in ways the political class refused to see. That the whole arrangement was headed for a crisis unlike anything America had faced since the 1930s. Almost everything I predicted has now come to pass. The one thing I got wrong was timing. I thought the final crisis would already be here. It isn’t. But the data says it’s closer than it’s ever been. This isn’t just my view. The historians William Strauss and Neil Howe described an 80-to-100-year “Fourth Turning” cycle that ends in monetary and political reordering. Ray Dalio, the founder of the world’s largest hedge fund, calls it the “Big Cycle” — and says we are in late Stage 5, one step before the collapse phase. The last Fourth Turning ended with the Great Depression and World War II. The one before that, the Civil War. The one before that, the American Revolution. I expect the next five to ten years to bring the kind of events that only happen every three or four generations… and I expect a lot of hard-working, middle-class families to be wiped out by what our government has done to our currency. If there’s a silver lining, and there is one, it’s this: no individual American has to pay for the sins of dollar debasement. You don’t have to fix the deficit. You don’t have to refinance the unpayable national debt. You don’t have to argue politics with your neighbor. All you have to do is position your portfolio for what’s coming. You do that by making gold the anchor — exactly the way every central bank on Earth is doing it right now. Which is why, back in January, I sat down with the one person I trust more than anyone on gold and gold mining stocks. His name is Garrett Goggin. He’s spent his entire career analyzing this sector, and nobody I know does deeper work on the companies that benefit when this thesis plays out. In our January interview, we walked through the entire central-bank thesis — and the specific stocks Garrett believes will benefit most from it. Since we recorded it, the war in the Middle East has pulled forward our timeline by several months, if not years. Garrett has also identified two new developments that didn’t exist when we first sat down in January… which is why I’m re-releasing the interview today, along with Garrett’s critical update on the story. Including how one new company that he’s discovered could upend the entire commodities market.

Our constitution wrote by smart men will absolutely not allow a handover or allegiance of our military to another country by either President or Congress.

Seems I and a few others got the numbers badly wrong….Musk is looking to raise @ $ 75 Billion, which would give Space X a valuation of $ 1.75 to $ 2 Trillion….he is not raising $ 1.75 Trillion plus….and the IPO has yet to have a hard date…but looks like late June…..so all that selling was note necessarily down to Space X…especially as there is no hard date yet…

yes, I hope you’re right too, but it sure seems like they’ve had a lot of successful attacks on their neighbors and have done a lot of damage to U.S. bases in the region with many of them uninhabitable. 15 U.S. servicemen dead, over 500 wounded.

I agree with you. Any attacks on oil infrastructure in the region must be met with total destruction of their oil production capabilities. Trump is trying to keep the oil flowing around the world. He should have never done this, it was poorly planned and he was duped by Netanyahu and Lady Lindsey Graham and his staff – Suzie Wiles, etc. However, now he’s in it, so if they do that, he has to respond in kind – on steroids.

It’s already too late to save the world from the coming shortages and economic collapse.

Soon, Congress will be turning over our military to Israel. Will Trump sign off on it?

If so, it will mark the end of the American empire.

Futures Rebound, Oil Pares Gain After Iran Declares End To Military Operations

here’s hoping you’re right.

The Hormuz Letter
@HormuzLetter
BREAKING: Iran says it has now fully blocked the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, along with the complete closure of the Strait of Hormuz, with the next step being strikes on oil, gas and energy infrastructure of US-allied Gulf countries in response to today’s Israeli strikes on the Petrochemical Complex, per a source close to Iran’s Ghalibaf.

I’m surprised the US and Israel aren’t bombing the crap out of Iran this morning! I guess it’s Israel being attacked but not US targets at this time. I just woke up so haven’t seen much so far.

That Hormuz letter, is making far too much of Iran’s capability…..when all this started Iran was sending 100’s of missiles/drones a day…now they are lucky if they get 10 away a day….as soon as a Missile takes off, or even before, the site gets blasted…end of site/launcher.

I seriously doubt they get a penny in Tolls, as every ship will get checked by the US Navy and then how does the money get to them, all foreign banking is shut down, they would have to move the money by van…but from where to where. Meanwhile they have zero other income and Tousi is saying there are no signs of the foreign mercenaries in Iran, which suggests they may have gone back home, due to not being paid.

And now the students are getting back onto the streets…..my guess is the end is coming fast.

A republic is a representative system where power is held by the people and their elected representatives, governed by a constitution.

I will say, it’s good that Israel hit the petrochemical plant. It seems that the US sort of laid off a lot of those type of installations. That might be what it takes to really end this thing. I don’t know.

Israel won’t stop in Lebanon though and Iran continues to say they will defend it, so I don’t know what’s really changed.

Nice bounce for Bitcoin. No bounce for gold. Typical. Hoping silver bottomed overnight, but hard to see that if gold keeps breaking down.

Israel Pauses Iran Strikes At Trump’s Request To ‘Stop Shooting’ – But Warns ‘Full Intensity’ Lebanon Ops To Persist

Re Platt…he doesn’t have to anything more…he has shown the World just how bent the Dems are…..job done……..hell i even picked up on it.

Trump and co will shove this down every Dems throat….they as of now have zero democratic credibility.

More like they slow played and dropped him in third place. He will leave the state so he said his kids won’t have to grow up seeing naked zombies in the park and not put another dime in California. lA will go the way of Venezuela if it doesn’t burn down first. The whole state will be affected because Newscum drove the oil companies out. This is also a result of open borders.

You know I heard in one of Armstrong’s videos that Mc Cain was the one bringing up and pushing the climate change. The reason was he was after depleting oil money to weaken Russia, he was another  neocon.

Pratt drops into third place.

Plastics and paints. Fertiliser. Textiles. All the stuff they make and export.

It’s the little island nations that are very vulnerable, and other developing countries that rely on Diesel generators.

Buygold, same here. Closed six refineries in the last 25 years. Only two left.

Thanks, I’ll look into that. Alot of solar, water, coal?

We have oil but no refineries. How stupid are we?

The answer to wha China can  sit back and eat popcorn and watch the events in Iran is in the fact Power generation for their power grid is dependent on oil For 1/10 of 1% of power generation…You’ll have to check it out for yourself because it’s a hard one For me to believe when I heard it…..

Strikes back in Central Iran.

I hope I’m wrong about everything brother. I’d like to think Trump is trying to get out of this, but he can’t.

Did the Israeli’s provoke this? I guess that depends on who you ask.

“Iran may be picking up a million or two in tolls here and there but they are losing their ass because of all the oil they haven’t been able to sell.” 

True, and it sounds like they dropped their demand to $24 Billion of the $100 billion we’ve had since the 70’s. But now they control the strait and have monetized it. Something they didn’t have before, and that’s not going away if this ends. While they can’t ship and are losing that revenue, they have the world’s oil markets by the scruds which applies pressure on the US and Israel to end this thing.

China and Russia seem content to sit back and watch with popcorn. You’d think China would be putting pressure on Iran because of the oil, but they aren’t Are we to understand that the loss of Venezuelan and Iranian oil isn’t hurting them?

How patient will the Israeli’s be? You know the answer to that.
