  1. As much as oil prices have surged lately, it’s astonishing that we still haven’t come close to the 2022 peak. The magnitude of this oil shock, and the time it will take to re-normalize when the strait re-opens, ought to dwarf the disruptions we saw at the start of the Ukraine War.

    Perhaps once Trump starts another round of bombing (shouldn’t be long), we’ll see reality sink in to the markets.

  3. Front-runners,
    front-runners
    Hey, hey!

    Today is our day.
    This year is mine.
    Because we believe in the good,
    we’re number one.

    We’re cooler than ever.
    Smarter than AI.
    We’re the best team.
    We don’t care about anyone else.

    We only need one step to take two.
    A bus is too small for us to use as a car.

    We’re the frontrunners.
    Higher and higher, farther and farther.
    We’re the frontrunners.
    Higher and higher, further and further.

    Hey, we’re the coolest in the world,
    always in top form
    and now the whole horde sings,
    where we are, there’s always the front.

    For two steps, we only need one.
    A bus as a car is too small for us.

  5. There is a “monument” in the Bronx—the most desecrated one.

    Heine in his own words:

    “Christianity – and that is its greatest merit – has somewhat mitigated that brutal Germanic love of war, but it could not destroy it. Should that subduing talisman, the cross, be shattered, the frenzied madness of the ancient warriors, that insane Berserk rage of which Nordic bards have spoken and sung so often, will once more burst into flame. This talisman is fragile, and the day will come when it will collapse miserably. Then the ancient stony gods will rise from the forgotten debris and rub the dust of a thousand years from their eyes, and finally Thor with his giant hammer will jump up and smash the Gothic cathedrals. … Do not smile at my advice – the advice of a dreamer who warns you against Kantians, Fichteans, and philosophers of nature. Do not smile at the visionary who anticipates the same revolution in the realm of the visible as has taken place in the spiritual. Thought precedes action as lightning precedes thunder. German thunder is of true Germanic character; it is not very nimble, but rumbles along ponderously. Yet, it will come and when you hear a crashing such as never before has been heard in the world’s history, then you know that the German thunderbolt has fallen at last. At that uproar the eagles of the air will drop dead, and lions in the remotest deserts of Africa will hide in their royal dens. A play will be performed in Germany which will make the French Revolution look like an innocent idyll.”

  7. “E Michael Jones” shouted “Allahhu Akbar” during a conversation with (the equally crazy Kevin M. Barrett). His email address is, in all seriousness, “info@culturewars.com,” fully aware that this is a racial struggle. As a so-called “half-German,” I shoved his shame right in his face.

  9. Trump’s masters in israhell won’t allow him to disengage from this mess.

    Their incursion into Lebanon is a deliberate provocation to cause the Iranians to escalate military action. Which will give America justification for further action. Escalation to total warfare between USA and Iran is the goal of the israhellis.

    If the anything like a ground incursion into Iran occurs, it will provoke them to cut the petroline across Saudi, then you’ll really see gas prices surge .

  10. The party is just starting for those that have not
    been paying attention.
    Anyone following basic biz wires knows this.
    Wall Street knows this.

    Diesel has been up about 50% plus everywhere and in
    Europe it is worse, that happened almost instantaneously.
    This alone is more devastating than retail gas purchases.
    That people see.

    I don’t know how bad it will get with food,
    in Aug Sept its going to be nasty. And later,
    we dont know.

    Basic Operations management, wait times, etc,
    very few have covered this, only recently have
    I seen it. The full tankers that left Hormuz,
    2 months ago,
    they are empty now, there is no more supply online,
    its trickling out, if Hormuz is open 100% right now,
    there is a least 2 months of high prices for everything,
    just on the energy side.

    You should buy dry goods right now, beans, lentils, grain, flour, right now, grow a garden right now. A lot of this will not even be available. We started stocking about a month ago.
    Neocons will never stop.

  11. I didnt even cover the missed growing season worldwide.
    Fertilizers, etc
    Something really nasty is coming right now
    for at least a year.
    Even if produced locally prices will rocket.
    Farmers are already complaining, big,
    in Ireland they protested gov big, …
    That was a month ago, including gas rationing
    everywhere, Australia, Japan, EUSSR .

  13. Government statisics = lies. Zog shows truck diesel at $5.41 per gallon today (Energy department). I just paid $4.71, in Georgia. I haven’t paid over $4.91 for diesel in 3 weeks, and that was in Ohio.

    Diesel is nowhere near any “record high”, and neither is gasoline. Adjusted for inflation, gasoline is far below 2022 prices. Actual inflation per year has been 9% from 2022 to 2026, so about 50% total.

    So adjusted for inflation, gasoline is about half what it cost in 2022. Diesel is far less than half what it cost in 2022, adjusted for inflation.

    As the dollar keeps losing value, it is impossible to keep oil at 60 per barrell.
    Food has doubled, rent has doubled, insurance has doubled, everything has gone up, because the dollar is losing value.

    100 per barrell is about right, for now, 80 to 100 range.. Going forward, it will have to be 150, because the dollar is disintegrating because the Congress has run up 50 trillion in debt, and there is no sign of them changing course, and the Federal Reserve continues as always to increase money supply, which means more inflation ahead.

    I know those of you that are now supporting Democrats will keep on with your current narrative. That is too bad, because the Democrats you are supporting will abolish gasoline cars altogether if they get back in power, and they will bring in 25 million invaders, which it seems you are comfortable with.

  14. Highest prices since 2022? This is typical jew manipulation. In 1995, gas was a dollar a gallon and has moved higher ever since. Jew stats keep doing this over and over with consumer pricing. By not looking at the bigger, long-term picture, and focusing only on immediate comparisons, they actually normalize higher pricing. https://wallethub.com/edu/gas-prices-over-time/121770

  15. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says .

    “The Pentagon is lying. Netanyahu’s gamble has directly cost America $100b so far, four times what is claimed,” Araghchi wrote on X Friday.

  18. Would you have believed that cats let out audible farts? And ones that sound almost indistinguishable from human ones? It seems to be an expression of complete serenity and relaxation.

    https://youtu.be/qQ_rXur-XtM?si=5inSzbLB8uSY5zJ1&t=1843

    Or—oh, what a nasty suspicion—is the Geisha just hypocritically accusing the poor pet, which can’t even defend itself verbally—and worse yet, isn’t even aware of this slanderous accusation?

    One thing is certain: this can be considered the absolute highlight of the video; even the visually represented volume peak stands out clearly from all the whispering.

    Now the only thing left to know is what cat farts smell like—certainly not like the Chanel perfume that the caring geisha uses to perfume her treasure, whom she cherishes and cares for as if it were an ancestor in the Japanese imperial dynasty.

    I strongly suspect they smell like half-digested Whiskas—that is, a mixture of various meat scraps discarded by the food industry, which are then processed in a kind of dry-pressing into pellets that appear “delicious” to cats.

    It is now only difficult to imagine that this creature, dressed in doll’s clothes and lying in a golden crib, is actually an ordinary predator that can be found on every street corner.

    And so, every day, this earthly existence presents us with all sorts of comical and absurd situations; unfortunately, people have lost the ability to spot them.

    As far as I know, Japanese and South Korean women are reluctant to date young men of their own kind. In fact, it has even become fashionable for them to marry themselves.

    In any case, they don’t have the problem that Westerners face—having to take in millions and millions of negroes, Muslims, and mestizos who are essentially adopted as pets by white women—and for that reason alone, they are indeed to be envied.

  20. By the way, the cat farts several times in the video. And as you can tell from the comments, she’s a lady, so these are female cat farts. It’s possible that female cats fart at a different pitch than male cats—for example, an octave higher—since a cat’s anus is only half as big, and the volume of the fart expelled from the generally much smaller intestine is only about a third as much.

    Muhamad (that’s what the “M.” in his name stands for) Barrett’s cat, on the other hand, is not pampered in a golden crib in Morocco—where dogs are despised as “dirty and unworthy of Allah”—but is forced to endure her owner’s “extremely funny” poems. That, too, is a form of terror. https://rumble.com/v7977i4-man-reads-nonsense-poem-to-cat.html
