It's the beginning of history - and an era where we'll see thorough tests of the assumptions of the AI bubble as a result of the war in Iran and the economic and social chaos to follow.

It's time to stop using the past as a guide to what happens next.

Trump Declares Iran War Over But World War III continues

The Iran war now involves at least EIGHTEEN different countries.

That in itself should be a major story!

Their flexibility and cost-effectiveness make mines attractive to the less powerful belligerent in asymmetric warfare. The cost of producing and laying a mine is usually between 0.5% and 10% of the cost of removing it, and it can take up to 200 times as long to clear a minefield as to lay it. Parts of some World War II naval minefields still exist because they are too extensive and expensive to clear.[2] Some 1940s-era mines may remain dangerous for many years.[3]

each day of mine laying can create over six months of removal effort

New report from Brown University’s Costs of War project estimates the US spent $3.4 trillion countering the "China threat" since 2012.

More than was spent on the war in Afghanistan ($2.3 trillion).

This accounted for 14% of all US discretionary spending. It's 2.3x the Transportation Dept. budget.

Donald J. Trump * @reaDonaldTrump
If Iran has put out any mines in the Hormuz Strait, and we have no reports of them doing so, we want them removed,
IMMEDIATELY! If for any reason mines were placed, and they are not removed forthwith, the Military consequences to Iran will be at a level never seen before. If, on the other hand, they remove what may have been placed, it will be a giant step in the right direction! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Husted: "People living in poverty are just not very, um, experienced at navigating the real world, right? I remember talking to one young lady who said, 'Well, I don't really know how money works at a grocery store,' bc she grew up & has lived all of her adult life using SNAP cards to buy groceries"

I violently agree with this dek:

β€œThe idea that Democrats are weirdly and extremely obsessed with "identity politics" and pronouns is a right wing propaganda fiction not supported by polling data, and Democratic party leaders should not be perpetuating it.”

Fun fact: at CENTCOM, the Iran-focused Jim Mattis developed a plan to open the Hormuz strait. It revolved around rapidly speeding a multinational force to the strait to *prevent* mine laying; and then minesweeping what Iran already laid.

Problem is: then the ships are in range of Iranian missiles.

Last week, a trial began to determine whether Elon Musk misled Twitter shareholders over his 2022 purchase of the co.

On X, he's been posting his contempt for the trial and praise from followers that "he lost billions of his own money so they internet could stay free."

(Twitter was alway free.)

They’ve been saying they destroyed the navy already for like 3 days (they haven’t btw- Iran likely knows it will lose most of its larger ships but they haven’t yet and they have a ton of smaller vessels and submarines)

Beheaded Babies? Trump White House Attacks Me for Calling Out Its Anti-Iran, Anti-Palestinian Propaganda Do please support Zeteo as the US government pushes pro-Israel, pro-war lies that very few other journalists are bothering to rebut, refute or debunk.

Like the US can keep attacking civilian sites indefinitely but Iran has taken out every base in the gulf and most of the US radar capability- the Iron Dome is failing-

And Iran has no reason to stop- they are in the worst case scenario and they will keep fighting.
