I don’t like the title, but the article is really good and explains really well, what’s going on right now. Only thing missing is the distraction of the Trump-Epstein-Files™.

    This week, the US Treasury lifted all oil sanctions on Iran. For 30 days. 140 million barrels of Iranian crude, sitting on ships at sea, may now be sold freely on the global market. Including to the United States itself.

    In yuan.

    The United States is purchasing, with Chinese currency, oil from the country it is currently bombing?!

    Wow this is getting too many level of fuckery to keep up. Trump even fucked up the USA being a petrocurrency.

      Trump asked NATO to send ships to help secure the Strait of Hormuz. Every. single. ally. refused. Trump called them “cowards” and said NATO has a “very bad future”. He then announced that the United States doesn’t actually need the Strait of Hormuz. He then said countries that do need it should police it themselves. He then told China to police it. He then sent 5,000 Marines toward it.

      Holy Hanna-Barbera what an afternoon special this has become.
