Iran FM Blames U.S. “Contradictions” On Stalled Peace Talks As Tehran Slaps Million-Dollar Hormuz Tax On Ships

The U.S. and Iran remain stuck in preliminary talks to end the war, with the main obstacle being Tehran’s demand for access to billions of dollars in frozen assets and the Trump administration’s refusal to provide upfront cash or broader sanctions relief.

Tehran is seeking about $12 billion upfront and $24 billion during a proposed 60-day negotiation window. “Twenty-four billion dollars is not much for America if he wants to reach an agreement with Iran,” Gen. Mohsen Rezaei, a senior adviser to Iran’s top official, told CNN on Friday. “This is our own, not America’s money.”

Iran has lost all leverage and is still completely blockaded with nothing left to offer. Trump is going to have a golf course on Kharg Island by the end of this.

They thought they could wait out Trump so now they’re acting out trying to to provoke us into a response. But people underestimate how patient Trump is

HENRY NOWAK

In his final moments, Henry Nowak told police officers nine times “I can’t breathe” and four times that he had been stabbed.

In response police officer dragged him across the gravel, handcuffed and read him his rights.

It was the last thing Henry heard before he died.

https://x.com/visegrad24/status/2061573327911543106

……………..

Henry Nowak died the same way a civilization dies: abandoned, handcuffed by authorities who neither trusted nor cared for him, and accused of hate crimes he did not commit. His murder is as tragic as it is enraging. He should still be alive today, and he would be if the last few generations of European elites had stood their ground against the politics of self-hatred and the mass invasion of migrants, many of whom despise the West and the people who love it.

Henry was far from the first to so needlessly lose his life, and I fear he won’t be the last. Each time a life like his is lost, the proper response—the only response—is righteous anger. One of the most important things the Trump administration has proven to the world is that stopping the flow of mass migration and defending national sovereignty is a matter of political will and leadership. Anything else is an excuse.

It is because we love the West that we want to preserve it. We love our civilization. We love our country. We love our children. And nobody—nobody—should ever die the way that Henry Nowak died. May God comfort those who loved him, and may God rest his soul.

ELIZABETH NICKSON ( A BRITISH COLUMBIAN ) KNOWS WHAT TIME IT IS …AND SO SHOULD YOU

There are American flags at the marches (In Europe and the UK), and why so many wear a MAGA hat. MAGA is world-wide now, it will take over the entire world, including China, including Russia. Going forward in the next few years, there may be scraps on the U.K. streets with Muslim gangs but if – as Muslims did last week in England – go hunting British men with baseball bats, they will swiftly learn how Britain conquered the known world with muskets. There is simply no force on earth that can fight it. The ferocity is based in the thousand-year heritage of the northern clans and it has no match on earth, in this or any other century.

VIX

For people who are worried about the market today, I get it. This stuff is very stressful.

So I put together a chart of all of the times the VIX (the “fear index” of the market) was up over 30% in a day (like today) in the past ten years.

23 out of 25 instances the market was higher one month later. The only two times it wasn’t was Feb 2020 when Covid hit the economy in March 2020.

What is the underlying message? When people are afraid, they make bad decisions. Do the opposite.

Attached is a chart summarizing my results.

UK Government Plots Digital ID Lockdown On Every Phone In Lockstep With Big Tech

Surveillance state tightens its grip…

The Labour government in Britain is accelerating its assault on digital privacy under the well-worn banner of child protection. Fresh plans leaked to the press reveal ministers intend to compel Apple, Google and other tech firms to restrict smartphones so thoroughly that a digital ID will be needed to use them with unfettered access.

The mechanism comes in the form of expanded age verification that effectively demands digital identification for device setup and use. What is sold as safeguarding the young is shaping up as a backdoor mandate for every adult in Britain to submit ID just to operate a phone or go online.

LA Mayor vote count update (Pratt / Raman / Bass)

Vote PRATT /RAMAN differential has been reduced to 21,000 with 253,000 votes to come — this steal is so freeking obvious!!

Only 58,000 ballots counted over 24 hours — the back room must be buzzing as they try to figure out how to pull this off.

“It seems obvious what is happening – they results are being slow walked until PRATT out of the run-off ballot in November. From 50K to 37K to 33K — by end of weekend they might break through the 30K barrier with 300,000 still to be counted.”  https://goldtadise.com/?p=699655

NOW only to 21K……..

NO chance that PRATT will be allowed to challenge BASS in November because PRATT would win (despite BASS and RAMAN both being part of the Democrat machine).

US Attorney Bill Essayli reveals MULTIPLE “election fraud investigations” are underway in California in conjunction with the FBI

AAG Dhillon is also involved with a voter audit

It’s RIFE WITH FRAUD! We all see it!

“California’s election system has serious structural vulnerabilities. Universal vote-by-mail with no voter ID requirements creates conditions where fraud can go undetected and unpunished, eroding public confidence.”

“Without commenting on any specific investigation, my office has multiple election fraud investigations underway in coordination with FBI Los Angeles.”

“We will follow the evidence wherever it leads and prosecute any violations of federal election law to the fullest extent.”

“My office is also working closely with AAG Dhillon to conduct a comprehensive audit of California’s voter rolls. The state has stonewalled every effort to verify that only eligible U.S. citizens are registered to vote. This case is now before the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeal.”

“My office will not look the other way. We will investigate and prosecute. Every legal vote deserves to be counted. Every illegal vote cancels one out.”

The Green Agenda still very much in place

My gracious host the past few days is the matriarch of an old NSW family.
Stayed at a sprawling one story Edwardian manor house. Lots of history and great conversations. She’s 87. Not being from Australia I had no idea who she was.
In her day, she and her husband would dine with PMs and Governor Generals.
Well connected.
She took us on a tour of her family’s vast acreage.
They are Teals as Aussie Digger explained.
Greenies but are the wealthy class.
They have about 30 wind turbines on their land.
We drove by a 1000 acre solar farm in the process of being installed on her land.
My travelling companion grew up with her and was shocked at her political views.
TDS is rampant but not as overt as in Canada.
These are the class that support Labour and inadvertently the WEF but they are unaware of the Agenda 2030. Great discussions about the goal of the Globalists.
She was not on board with much of the WEF’s policies but was blissfully unaware.
This is what we are up against.
It’s the working class that are on board with us and they are vocal. Great to hear.
Off to walk the beach soon.

Pulte to Fire “Large Number” of Deep State Intel Community Members

According to The Wall Street Journal, President Trump has urged Bill Pulte to “start the process” of firing intel officials. President Trump said he wants to reduce the size of the federal intel agencies.

President Trump said he wants Bill Pulte, his incoming acting director of national intelligence, to begin the process of firing a large number of employees as part of a shake-up of the U.S. intelligence community.

Three Republican Senators on Thursday joined the Democrats and voted to block Bill Pulte from serving as the Acting Director of National Intelligence. RINO Senators Cassidy, Collins and Murkowski voted for a Democrat sponsored amendment that would bar a Senate-confirmed head of another department from serving as Acting DNI. The amendment failed in a 49-49 vote.

New Footage Reveals Ford Carrier Damage Far More Severe Than Pentagon Acknowledged

“I seriously thought we were going to lose the ship. It’s either fight or die.

Newly surfaced footage obtained by CNN indicates that a severe fire aboard the USS Gerald R. Ford – the world’s largest aircraft carrier – inflicted far more extensive damage than the Trump administration initially admitted to the public.

Early in the conflict it was forced to depart Mideast regional waters and retreat West in the Mediterranean, before undergoing extensive repairs at port in Croatia. Pundits were skeptical of official explanations, which suggested an accidental fire was sparked in the laundry room aboard the giant vessel.

The major blaze erupted in March at a moment Iran claimed to have directly hit US naval vessels, but crisis was consistently downplayed by Pentagon officials at the time. The obtained video reveals severely destroyed sleeping quarters, showing sailors’ bunks entirely reduced to charred, twisted metal. The ceiling directly above the berthing areas appears completely gutted by the intense flames, while exposed wiring hangs from overhead and thick ash blankets the floor.

Russia’s Missing Gold Tonnes Suddenly Appear

Russia may have mined as much as 485 metric tons of gold in 2025 and could produce up to 500 tons in 2026, according to estimates released by the country’s Natural Resources Ministry, a figure that has surprised analysts and, if confirmed, would place Russia ahead of China as the world’s largest gold producer.

Bizarro world and how far things are crazy…

..think about it, great jobs report, which would say, hey, economy is headed up as people are hiring.  This should spur on economic development as people are hiring, more capital investment, more jobs will come from this…nope.

That means interest rates will go up and the whole US market will crumble.  If the market will crumble with an additional 50 bps in the Fed Funds rate, how phucked are we as a nation?  I mean, what’s the logic.  We have so much debt that it will crush us to take on another 50 bps across the yield curve?  Once again, if that’s the case, so screwed.  If hiring is headed up and things are rosy, why don’t commodities go up as a growing economy will drive demand in building and commodities, nope, smashed across the board.

Will be buying more stocks I like on Monday in the commodity spaces.  8 billion people are not going to stop consuming because their is the potential that interest rates will go up by 50 bps in the next 6 months…..le monde est fou!
