#usa #israel #iran : #warofaggression / #worldtrade / #straitofhormuz
„Iran said on Friday that it has no plan to close the Strait of Hormuz and denied reports claiming that the country has fully blocked the strategic waterway.
According to a report by Iran's Tasnim News Agency, a senior officer of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (#IRGC) said in an interview with state TV that claims by some media outlets that Iran had closed the Hormuz strait were inaccurate.“ -

So, the world is heating up like a balloon, and the axis of control freaks are calling dibs on the last deposits of fossil while zipping through a new shipping lane opened thanks to global warming. A race to suck every last drip from the Earth's top hat to feed AI smart cities. Smoke 'em if you got 'em. Mining Ukraine minerals, how are they being exported? Working that out with Russia I suppose. Canada, Greenland, it all makes sense now. New trade routes and attack vectors. The world is going full tilt. I feel like a frog in a kettle.

"In his latest book,"Hayek’s Bastards: Race, Gold, IQ, and the #Capitalism of the #FarRight", #QuinnSlobodian writes that the rise of the contemporary right — both in its #technolibertarian and more #authoritarian strains — cannot be understood without considering neoliberal thinkers’ turn to nature and science as a buttress against demands for #socialjustice and #affirmativeaction in the 1990s.
"The book was intended as a corrective to the narrative in which the far right was understood as a response to the excesses of #neoliberalglobalization.
The idea is to understand how people who prioritize #economicfreedom above all else would find helpful allies in people who believe in natural forms of hierarchy such as race, gender, and intelligence.
Things like the present project of destroying the #worldtrade system are not explainable by simple structural incentives. It has a very strange intellectual coherence, but one that you can map out.
There’s a concerted effort right now in the United States to make the practice of scholarship as we’ve understood it impossible. It’s really an effort to defund #highereducation."https://jacobin.com/2025/04/race-science-neoliberalism-hayek-slobodian/

~WTO staff comfort themselves that the Trump admin has not so far said it will leave the trade body.
‘It can survive this if the non-U.S. WTO members agree to remain committed to the obligations they've made, and decide they can run the system without the U.S’
(Note: The US has been WTO’s largest financial contributor. Trump crippled the WTO his first term when he blocked judge appointments to its top appeals court.)

Trump's tariffs are going to make goods more expensive primarily in the Midwest and South, his leading voting blocs. And they will worship him for it.

I wonder if the Orange Creep's followers know that Brazil is the world's largest coffee producer and he's threatening to place a 100% tariff on imports from BRICS countries on Day One. Guess who the "B" in BRICS is? Drink up, chumps. ☕🇺🇸
#UsPol #BRICS #WorldTradeWhy is Trump threatening a 100% tariff on the BRICS nations?

....greatly depend on supply and demand. Future demand forecasts are subject to huge swings and very diverse scenarios if you just look at the research done by #PWC (graph below).
I haven't studied the article, but I doubt that they factored in a potential armed conflict over #Taiwan with #China, which would have an extremely negative impact on #WorldTrade and... -
We're on HBO! Or will be. Our firm's lobby & conference room(s) are being disguised as the headquarters (I think) of Succession in an upcoming episode (they're filming from last night into tomorrow!)! This happens all the time but before I could toot about it LOL newbie
