Iran war spreading economic damage far beyond oil and gas markets
The conflict has hit Europe and Asia harder than the United States, with rising shipping costs and energy prices.
"Farmers, meanwhile, will probably be among the first Americans to feel a financial jolt from the war. Three of the world’s top 10 producers of urea and anhydrous ammonia fertilizer are in the conflict zone: Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Iran.
Urea prices jumped by roughly one-quarter last week..." #mtpol

AOC: The Pentagon has not passed an audit, and they are out here trying to kick people with disabilities off of Medicaid. It is corruption that is stealing from the public coffers — and that is the actual waste, fraud, and abuse.

HOW MANY MORE OIL WARS WILL WE ALLOW?
The climate fight for clean energy is a fight for peace & stability.
Beware false solutions like "green" hydrogen, pushed by methane companies (aka, natural gas).
There is only one CA Gov candidate who gets it: Betty Yee!

I just want to go on record and say that you people are crazy if you think only 6 American soldiers have died in this conflict. It's pointless to expect the truth from mainstream media about anything much less this war of preference/choice.
America is not angry enough yet for me.

Vast scale of overseas human remains held in UK museums decried by MPs and experts
Exclusive: Guardian study finds UK museums hold more than 260,000 items of remains, often in sacrilegious ways
A damning report on the continued retention of human remains, especially from colonial contexts (nb Ireland virtually never included in these lists), in British museums. Rather amazed to see the 6th largest collection is in ‘Armagh, Banbridge and Craigavon’?!? www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

There are a lot of posts out there with the close-up visual of Markwayne Mullin on January 6, but this is a better perspective.
He’s not protecting others; he’s protecting himself and hiding. You can see plenty of people at the entry door, ready to take on the insurrectionists, but not Markwayne.

I am frankly more concerned about the apathy of the American public and even more importantly the lack of leadership in the Democratic Party.
This is not a dress rehearsal. Every single American must speak out against this Facist administration.

Most of the media is demanding that everybody supports the war effort. Well, sod that. This is an illegal conflict, launched by a decrepit American to distract from his domestic problems, which has already killed hundreds of women and children. I didn’t back the Iraq war in 2003. Nor this one!

ICE just grabbed NASHVILLE Noticias reporter Estefany Rodriguez outside of a gym.
“She was with her husband, a 🇺🇸 citizen — her attorney says she came legally, sponsored by her husband, has a pending green card application.”
She also has a daughter.
