Operation Epic Failure: deal/no deal, lovebombing Iran, Iran knowledge, reminder of girls slain --

Clearly, there is no “peace deal.” One side says “no money exchanged.” The other side says “$325 billion.” This isn’t a negotiating gap; it’s a different universe.

“This time, the Iranians will come to the table armed with valuable knowledge: They can survive the worst the Americans can throw at them.” Bargaining power includes both material capabilities and perceptions, and right now Iran (and everyone) sees the US as weak. www.wsj.com/world/middle...

Mass-murderer fascist and rocket man Elon Musk using wealth to incite white supremacist violence--

"Fascist" and "pogroms" are absolutely the appropriate terms for the explicitly racist violence Elon Musk encourages, most recently in Belfast. He and X are at the center of Fascist Internationale.

Trump's trade war has been struck down in court. Twice. So now we're on version three. Same trade war. Better lawyers. Worse economics. This week's Diving In: newsletter.platypuseconomics.com/p/better-law...
