Notes in the Margin

Chilean President Kast said Chile had been "violated by illegal immigration, drug trafficking and organized crime." 

The Straight of Hormuz is closed again. Israel will not abide by any ceasefire, so Trump can only succeed by ignoring Netanyahu. Which Trump will not do. 

Israel’s nuclear weapons program, estimated at over 90 warheads, was secretly developed with financial and diplomatic support from the West.

The country that is losing generally does not reject ceasefire proposals. Meanwhile, Iran demands an end to the Israeli war on civilians in Lebanon, etc. 

"Americans now know that the US government lives for war, is owned by Israel, and is completely beholden to and integrated with the military industrial complex..."

Rising prices, triggered by Trump's Iran War (which Milei supports) endanger the political future of Milei in Argentina, as it does with other rightwing regimes in South America.  

"US officials said that the two C-130s and two Little Birds were destroyed at a makeshift airstrip after they got stuck in the sand..."

The Walmart Recession Signal (WRS), which measures Walmart's stock price against a basket of luxury stocks, shows high risk of a sharp economic downturn.

"...the power of the state expands and the liberty of the citizen contracts." 

Thanks to Trump-caused global price hikes, the Chilean Left has a much easier time destroying Chile's new Catholic anti-socialist leader.
