Midweek Update #7: The Most Corrupt War In US History Trump Is Passing The Initiative To Iran; Oil Markets, Watch Out If They Lose Their Optimism

Hi all, just sent out free midweek update on USA-Iran. Normally bad superlatives are used about war--the worst, the most destructive, etc. These are rarely warranted. However in this case we have one superlative, we are witnessing the most corrupt war in US history. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...

I'm at the leave me alone phase.

So ... DonOld started a war to boost Putin's oil production.

SPLC is my favorite charity.

The Lesson Every Democrat Should Learn From Peter Magyar's Victory In Hungary The cost of living crisis needs a villain.

Peter Magyar's victory in Hungary was fueled by a potent message tying the affordability crisis to the corruption of wealthy elites. With Trump presiding over unprecedented corruption and with prices skyrocketing, Democrats have the opportunity to replicate Magyar's success in November and beyond.

Trump fought to keep the ballroom fundraising contract secret. Here’s what’s in it. The agreement governing hundreds of millions in private donations was kept secret until a watchdog group sued and a judge ordered it disclosed.

Breaking news: The Trump administration’s fundraising arrangement for the White House ballroom project shields donor identities and excludes the White House from conflict of interest requirements, according to records obtained by The Post.

Southern Poverty Law Center indicted on federal fraud charges by Alabama grand jury Justice department’s inquiry focused on the civil rights organization’s prior use of paid informants to monitor hate groups, the CEO said

The Trump regime doesn’t like the Southern Poverty Law Center labeling hate groups as hate groups, so it’s weaponizing the Justice Department to try to destroy the SPLC. This is DOJ taking the side of the Klan.

Texas redistricts without a vote, Republicans cheer.

Dems in Virginia respond by putting it UP FOR A VOTE OF THE PEOPLE, it passes, Republican cry foul.

Oh well. Good job Virginia!!

Agreed entirely.

The ICE "detention facilities" *are* concentration camps - literally facilities concentrating civilians deemed 'unwanted' and 'enemies' of the U.S. state, in violation of their basic human rights.

The history of concentration camps is longer & more common than most people know.

The Senate GOP budget: $70 billion for ICE. $0 to lower your costs.

More than 70 Minnesota children detained during Operation Metro Surge

ICE detained over 70 of Minnesota’s children - ripping them out of school, forcing them into inhumane detention centers, and traumatizing them forever.

We need to bring all our babies home.

Then, the federal government must repair and restore all the harm they’ve done.

The thing about that Washington painting behind him:

“Washington wanted to make sure that his troops were not affected by disease, and he believed that inoculation would help with that. So, just before this letter was written, Washington created a mandated system of inoculating his soldiers.”

Rep Schrier (D, Washington) is drilling RFK Jr. about the “RFK Spillover Effect”. She asks him to say for the record that parents should give their newborns the vitamin K shot.

He refuses to do so, putting millions of newborns at risk for brain bleeds and brain damage.

Rep. Robert Garcia: "Unfortunately, I have to announce that Democratic members will not participating. This roundtable is not a real hearing. It's set up to appear like one. We should be clear about why that's happening. Last week, Pam Bondi skipped a legally required deposition ... "

Sen. Jack Reed to Warsh as he dodges questions about divesting his assets: "Excuse me. I must commend you on the way you can circularly go around questions and not answer them. It's a skill. Unfortunately it's not a good skill for the chairman of the Fed."

Kevin Warsh just lost me. He argues he's going to be an independent Fed Chair, but refuses to acknowledge that Trump lost the 2020 election. If you can't state simple facts when you're in the political spotlight, you aren't independent. You're a coward.

Trump turns totally toxic for Europe’s far right “Proximity with the United States in the current context did not go down well with Hungarian voters,” said a senior official from France’s National Rally party.

🚨🚨Fascinating @politico.eu report on how Donald #Trump has become so politically toxic in Europe that even his closest ideological #far-right allies increasingly view him as a liability. 🧵

MAGA backlash sees Army yank tribute to Purple Heart senator who lost both legs in Iraq

tRump's Army Secretary caved to MAGA backlash and shut down "Soldier for Life" accounts—just for honoring Purple Heart hero Tammy Duckworth, who lost both legs in Iraq combat. Real veterans get erased if they're not tRump loyalists. Pathetic.
