Trump looked every MAGA voter dead in the eye and sold them out for Bibi’s forever war. Clip after clip he swore gas prices would “drop like a rock” the second the Iran mess ended and then, when pressed if working families getting crushed at the pump even crossed his mind, he didn’t flinch: “I don’t think about Americans’ financial situation. I don’t think about anybody. I think about one thing. We cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon. That’s all.” Pure billionaire arrogance, putting Israel’s suicidal agenda ahead of your grocery bill and empty tank. Natural consequences don’t care about campaign slogans, they’re already hammering Main Street.

📜 UK'S STARMER TO GREENLIGHT £18 BILLION DEFENCE BLOWOUT AMID LEADERSHIP SQUEEZE UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer's set to rubber-stamp an £18 billion defence spending hike, as pressure mounts on his shaky throne.

Rezaei notes Trump pinning hopes on China's clout to contain the crisis he created himself shows a new system rising fast, ditching America-centered rules. @TheBabylonTimes

📜 MÉLENCHON CALLS US A SINKING WRECK WITH CHINA PATIENTLY WATCHING French presidential hopeful Jean-Luc Mélenchon labels the United States a declining power hurtling toward political and economic collapse.
