Counting The Ways
So, Donald, what have you got going this week? Let’s see. The gas prices have gone down I guess in reaction to you saying that the agreement with Iran was almost finalized. Oh, Iran just broke off negotiations. They don’t trust you and now this Israel, incursion into Lebanon has screwed things up Well, forget…

Can You Trust This Man?
How many times has Donald Trump said that a deal is imminent? Each time, Wall Street falls for it with index still going up and big oil falls for it with prices going down until the next flare up. This week, Trump pushed the idea that negotiations were finalized, and an agreement just waiting to…

Backlash
Another bad week wrapping up for Donald. A federal court judge has ruled that Trump must remove his name from the Kennedy Center. “Congress gave the Kennedy Center its name, and only Congress can change it.” Trump responded to this by saying he’s been treated unfairly, and, “I have instructed the Department of Commerce to…

Stay In Bed
There are some days, where you checked the news first thing in the morning, while still in bed and are tempted to stay in bed all day. Being in Alberta, with a forecast of a hot summer, I have five long months, ahead, of heated rhetoric from the separatist camp, until voting day of October…

Yet Again
An agreement was even closer this time. Just a couple words holding the agreement up. Oil prices went down. The Dow again went up. Peace was at hand after 12 weeks of a supposed four week war. This time it was really gonna happen even if it’s just a one page memorandum of understanding, it…

Not So Easy
Back, in February 2022, Vladimir Putin decided to invade Ukraine. I still remember pictures of Russian tanks lining up on a Ukrainian highway on their way to Kyiv. Kind of a stupid move because they were easy prey for drones. It is now four years later and Russia is facing drone attacks from Ukraine, even…

Heard this before, and before, and before, and… We were getting ready to do a very major attack tomorrow. I put it off for a little while — hopefully, maybe, forever — but possibly for a little while, because we’ve had very big discussions with Iran, and we’ll see what they amount to.” The supposed…

Same Old, Same Old
Donald, I guess you made another threat on Iran, didn’t you? This is what you posted on your social media site, yesterday “For Iran, the Clock is Ticking, and they better get moving, FAST, or there won’t be anything left of them. TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE! President DJT.” Donald, you are right on one…

Much Ado But
Trump and XI just concluded their two days of meetings. While both sides expressed friendship and a need to establish and maintain good relations, not much else came out of these meetings. Trump said that China would no longer send armaments to Iran, but would not do much more than that. Trump gave a pressor…

Closed
Well, this is another fine mess you’ve gotten us into Donald. Iran came back with its response to your peace proposal, and it was not to your liking at all. So here we are, more than 60 days into this, let’s call it what it is, war and the Strait it’s still closed. Oil prices…
