WAR LEBANON

Not only is Israel continuing the genocide in Gaza, and united with the US to slaughter people in Iran, and seizing portions of the West Bank and Syria, the Israeli government just tried to assassinate Russia Today journalist Steve Sweeney, who has been doing an outstanding job reporting on the Israeli aggression in Lebanon. Here is the report, from RT. He literally was recording when the rocket hit appx 40 feet behind him. Will JD Vance get back on his fake “free speech” pony as he did in Europe last year, and denounce this attack on a journalist? How about denouncing ALL the attacks?

IRAN

-Trump likely lies re Netanyahu attacking the South Pars oil-gas field. He claims that Netanyahu did it without Trump’s knowledge. That’s highly improbable.

The VP shows his dismissal of energy concerns, and lies re US energy, as well.

-Former Ambassador Chas Freeman observes the illegality of every nuance.

Hegseth is a menace.

More people are discussing the facts that Iran was abiding by the JCPOA after the US never bothered to adhere, and that Kushner and Witkoff clearly lied to Americans about a “nuclear weapons threat” from Iran.

Hegseth is rattling his sabre even more, and Trump made similar claims about dominance. Yet Iran just shot down an f-35,

… and Hegseth can’t answer why he and Trump just requested an emergency supplemental $200 bil package to continue fighting Iran. What happened to their insane, “We won”?

-John Mearsheimer has something to say about the braggadocio and its dangers.

And this German manufacturer notes the impossibility for the US to sustain the war for months, in any way.

Gingrich buys into the rhetoric, pushes it, for US unconstitutional attacks, forever… LINK

US ECONOMY

Price increases - massive.

Jeffrey Tucker adds thoughts

And I want to be sure to note that the latest GDP data is the second estimate for Q4 2025 (October–December 2025), released on March 13, by the BEA.

  • Real GDP grew at an annualized rate of 0.7% in Q4 2025, revised down from the initial 1.4% estimate and much weaker than Q3 2025’s 4.4% growth.

  • This slowdown reflected drastic revisions to consumer spending, business investment, exports, and dollar liquidity that went abroad being sucked up by US bonds.

  • For full-year 2025, real GDP growth was around 2.2% (annual level change from 2024). THAT IS BELOW EVEN THEIR ANNUAL INFLATION ESTIMATE.

No Q1 2026 advance estimate is available yet (typically released late April). Nowcasts like the Atlanta Fed’s GDPNow (as of today) suggest Q1 2026 growth around 2.3%, but this is preliminary and subject to change. The sharp Q4 slowdown signals a cooling economy entering 2026.
And… The latest Employment Situation report, released March 6, covers February 2026.

  • Nonfarm payrolls declined by 92,000 jobs, far worse than expectations of around +50,000–60,000 and following a revised +126,000 gain in January.

  • This was the largest monthly drop in several months and widespread, with losses in health care (due to strike activity), information, federal government, and other sectors.

  • The unemployment rate rose slightly to 4.4% (from 4.3% in January).

  • This, atop a 770,000 APPX downward revision in employment counting from Jan 2025 to the open of Feb, 2026.

TARIFF TERRORISM

This is interesting…

TRUMP V. MARKET INTEREST RATES

Curiously, Mr. Trump has no problem pushing us into higher expenditures for oil, foreign imports, and things associated with them, even as he works to inflate the money supply ever-more — but he does those things as he adopts the pretense of wanting to “help” consumers who might own and use credit cards. Trump’s desire to “cap” credit card rates not only is unconstitutional, it threatens a key voluntary option some people might choose over pay-day loans or black-market loans. The complicating factors of the credit card companies being given corporate status by the federal government, and, thus seeing their board members and owners shielded from asset liability should their corporations mess up and hurt people, and the fact that these credit card companies are usually tied to banks that are tied to the central banking system — those are problems, but if one looks at the issue of interest for loans as a unique matter of conversation, this piece helps one understand how important loaning for interest is.
