WARUKRAINE
One might think it odd that we open with news re Ukraine, but, as we reported on Liberty Conspiracy Live last night, the new PM of Hungary reversed the Hungarian government’s “veto” of the 90 BILLION EURO “loan” to Ukraine, while, at the same time, utilizing its ability to NOT participate in it through not backing the loan with Hungarian funds. The situation sees the Eurozone nations that ARE participating (now that the Hungarian veto is gone) claiming they can repay with money acquired from interest on Russian “frozen assets”. But Russia’s government is suing the EU over that, and so the question remains — from whence will the EU get the money to offer the loan, and how can Ukraine collateralize it, since Ukraine is undoubtedly going to lose the war? The answer appears to be that the individual Euro nations that are participating will get their central governments or central banks to offer a smaller amount, perhaps 30 Bill Euros, counting on the moves passing their legislatures BECAUUUUUSE, they will tell their national players that the loans will be used by Ukraine to buy weapons from their arms makers (those in the various constituent EU nations). It appears to be shaking out just like we expected, and the shakedown of the people for the Eurozone Military Industrial Complex will continue. Here is The Duran, with one of the absolute best overviews I’ve seen on the breaking story. Please watch!!
IRANHegseth today told reporters some of his biggest whoppers to date. He might want to start a Burger King franchise. Here, he gaslights European nations to participate in opening the Strait of Hormuz, control of which Iran took because the US and Israel attacked Iran.
He says this literally within minutes of claiming not only that the US is in control of the Strait, but also saying that the US will engage in ship-stopping and aggression all over the world, AND he says that it is IRAN engaging in “random” acts of “piracy” - A sketch comedy writer couldn’t get away with such incomprehensible chatter.
And, of course, he had to be sure to restate the canard that it is IRAN that has initiated aggressive action against the US for “47” years, when, in fact, it is US and British activity going back 100+ years that has brought strife and death to IRAN
Share
And FOX backs up Hegseth’s clear lie about “control” of the Strait, without bothering to note that the US can’t control the strait from this position, so far away, and that the US ships are so far away because Iran can capsize them using hypersonic missiles and drones.

Meanwhile, another bloodthirsty member of the tax-consuming, debt-building US Congress proudly tells a reporter that “WE ARE STARVING” the people of Iran. First, if that is true, it’s a war crime. Second, Iran is getting ships through and into the Strait. What the US is doing is bombing a lot of innocent people, threatening occasional ship captains and steal cargo, and threatening to destroy civilian infrastructure, which also is a war crime, atop the mount of them the US regime already has committed.
Oh, and of COURSE the US attacked Iran because Israeli forces wanted the US to do so.

AGAIN, TRUMP LIES - It’s astounding how they deflect from US aggression, and that aggression is obvious.
ISRAEL-LEBANON
Good thing Israel is abiding by that “ceasefire” (aka, the “we call continuing to kill innocent people a ceasefire, then claim we were “defending” against Hezbollah or GHHCHAMAS)
Astounding, SKY News calls ISRAELI-MURDERED AMAL Khalil “Hezbollah-Aligned” - first, that is not the case, and, second, if she were, that would be DEFENSIVE, against Israeli occupation and theft.
ISRAEL - WEST BANK
Yes, we know… Just vile - so many Trump Admin lies.

BACK TO EUROZONE ECONOMICS, SINCE WE STARTED THERE
The S&P Global Eurozone Composite Output Index, often just called the Composite PMI is a leading indicator of private-sector economic activity and health in the Eurozone. It combines manufacturing and services data and is based on monthly surveys of purchasing managers and business executives at around 5,000 private-sector companies across key countries (Germany, France, Italy, Spain, etc.). LINK
What it measures
It is a diffusion index (a weighted average) that shows the percentage of respondents reporting month-on-month improvement, no change, or deterioration in business conditions.
The headline Composite Output Index is specifically a weighted average of:
The Manufacturing Output Index, and
The Services Business Activity Index.
Respondents are asked about changes (compared to the previous month) in variables such as:
New orders / sales
Output / production / business activity volume
Employment levels
Supplier delivery times
Stocks of purchases / inventories
(And sometimes prices, backlogs, etc.)
A reading above 50 signals overall expansion; below 50 signals contraction. soooooooo……….
IMMIGRATION POLICE STATE

FREEDOM OF SPEECH, THE SURVEILLANCE STATE, AND GOVT ROADS
This X post is from my feed, and links to a story from AIER, a tale of woe for a person who offered some opinions, then became targeted by government. Kind of like Tufts grad student Rümeysa Öztürk, last year, who was kidnapped off the streets near her Cambridge, MA, home, after she wrote an op-ed for the Tufts school paper — a piece in favor of peace in Palestine. Now, we see something similar, and it’s a “citizen” (as if the term should make any difference, ethically, which it doesn’t)…
And, talking of spying…
