| Bone Spurs on the ground, hitting Venezuelan drug cartels and hoping for spillage onto US soil Less blowback than attacking Mexican cartels, but will it spill into regime change for Maduro. New US strikes will offset the September boat killing snafus, because the Trump administration is all about incompetent misdirection. Unfortunately, actual... |

The EU/UK plan to dump US Treasuries if the US abandons Ukraine starts to hint a growing global risk — the lack of underlying ability to trust. We are seeing it develop but haven’t tied it to the one big risk — are currencies going to cease to... |

| Abbreviated Pundit Roundup: A weak Mike Johnson attacked by his own leadership team TN-07 comes in strong for Democrats. No upset, not strong enough to overcome a 22 point Trump district with the Republicans winning by single digits, but an excellent showing for Aftyn Behn (D) and an embarrassing one for Matt Van Epps (R).

Phase 3: Profit (or prison) While Hegseth should also be on trial for this, Admiral Bradley could have refused that order if he believed it to be illegal.

| "1/6th of people in the US are foreign born. That is not sustainable for our culture" Who sez?

| Lindsey Graham demands the Pope get on the right side of... Venezuelan boat people? Doubling down to divert attention from those ‘kill them all’ orders from 2 September, since no one seems to have been there during the ‘second strike’ off Venezuela.
