Senior U.S. officials told Fox News that the U.S. military has struck targets near Iran’s Kharg Island and Jask, including Iranian oil tankers.

The official said the strikes are part of a broader campaign to increase economic pressure on Iran, with the strategy including the disabling and sinking of Iranian crude oil tankers.

The CIA Headquarters in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, was ‘effectively destroyed’ by Iranian strikes in March

Various other U.S. military bases have been so extensively damaged that CENTCOM has discussed abandoning the bases completely and relocating troops away from the Middle East.

Navy admirals, for example, said that personnel won’t be returning to Bahrain ‘any time soon’. – CNN

If for whatever reason you’re on the fence about Flock cameras, I ask you to consider who their most passionate defenders are.

Friday morning #headlines recap

Iran hit seven US bases in five countries. No US response comes due to depleted munitions and high petroleum prices. Congratulations Trump, you did it: you destroyed what little was left of US military capabilities. 



Part of the diminished capability comes from logistics: ~20 ships and 20,000 personnel needing 420,000 meals and 8M gallons of fuel weekly, resupplied from 2,200 miles away at Diego Garcia after Iran destroyed the Navy's Bahrain logistics base. Forget 5-D chess, we can’t even play 2-D checkers.

The US diesel refining margin (aka crack spread) is up to a record $106/barrel, surpassing $100 for the first time. This is a key measure of how much refiners can potentially earn from turning a barrel of crude oil into diesel, with wider margins signaling tighter diesel supplies and higher refining profits. Whew, I’m sure glad BIG OIL’s margins are safe during this crisis.

Bessent tries to gin up some energy for his stillborn “ Operation Economic Outcast” by announcing the EU has “officially joined”. Talk about damning with faint praise…

Germany, Poland, and Denmark all have incidents that look suspiciously like false flag events to gin up support for war against Russia. At the same time a new film is being teased in France which revolves around nuclear war with Russia. Otherwise, Russia continues to grind away at Ukraine. This obsession with Russia is as bad as jews’ homoerotic obsession with Eeebil Nahtzees. BTW if you want more details see Simplicius’ latest substack post.

Blackstone just restricted withdrawals from its flagship private credit fund for the 2nd consecutive quarter, allowing investors to pull only half of the 10% requested. Kinda sounds like a bank run to me…

NVIDIA agreed to buy Hugging Face for $12.93bn. 



Rice futures hit a two-year high, +65% from the January low. Zerohedge frames it as "the grain that feeds half the world" heading for its biggest annual gain since 2003. Meanwhile DOJ added Walmart, Costco and Amazon to its beef price probe.

AfD reaches record support days before a pivotal state election. Reports indicate that Von der Leyen could freeze EU funds to Saxony-Anhalt should AfD win an absolute majority. There is only one way the likes of AfD can win, and it isn’t in a voting booth. 



ArcelorMittal (steel manufacturer) is closing its Duisburg plant and scuttling 550 jobs after green-steel conversion to an electric arc furnace collided with energy prices. Sure you lost your job anon, but at least the planet was saved in the process…

Estonia's defense minister got scammed by Indians for €70 million. He is now resigning over an ammunition deal with a firm that had never made an artillery shell. Also on the subject of streetshitter scams: A former U.S. consular officer who worked in India has stated that 90% of the H-1B visa applications she reviewed involved fraudulent documents. DO. NOT. REDEEM.

Massive protests in Spain, citizens demanding Pedro Sánchez resign over the invasion of Ceuta. Protests are meaningless without the [redacted] part. 

Lesbian city council member in Hamtramck, Michigan welcomes muzzie diversity, only to see them ban LBGT flags once they gain power. Insert Pikachu surprise face meme here…

The new Grand Theft Auto videogame, which is being produced in India and was promptly leaked by hackers who exploited Jeet incompetence, features meters that judge how moral a criminal you are. I can immediately think of a half-dozen memes that would fit perfectly here… 



Nick Fuentes promotes a poll that says Trump’s approval is plummeting [checks notes] because he isn’t sending enough money to Ukraine. Not newsworthy that a homosexual is untrustworthy, but included in the recap for the lulz. 



ICE has now set three straight months of record-breaking arrests, netting the highest totals in agency history. Headlines like this can be misleading without knowing what the previous highest totals were, but it’s not like we’ve got so much good news that we can afford to turn any away. I just want ICE to be the storm troopers that their critics claim they are.

Greece has passed a new law imposing at least 10 years in prison and a €50,000 fine on NGO workers who help migrants cross its borders illegally, even if they do it for free. Anyone else who commits the same offense faces at least five years in prison and a €20,000 fine. This is good news, hopefully our friend Kalo will see them enforce it to the fullest…

Enjoy your Labor Day cookouts US frens, if Trump gets his way we may not have any more holidays soon…
