The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

did anyone catch that russia aiding iran with live military surveillance, presumably for kinetic targeting, did not bother leavitt in the least?

i wonder where that came from.


The irony is the Russians are said to be helping the Iranians with their targeting, but God on Earth Trump just lifted sanctions so India can import more Russian oil, so Putin can line his pockets.

US lifts some restrictions on Russian oil, considers more actions to ‘unsanction’ it as prices spike

“Yesterday, Treasury agreed to let our allies in India start buying Russian oil that was already on the water,” Bessent said.

“The Indians had been very good actors. We had asked them to stop buying sanctioned Russian oil this fall. They did. They were going to substitute it with U.S. oil, but to ease the temporary gap of oil around the world, we have given them permission to accept the Russian oil,” he continued.

“We may unsanction other Russian oil,” he added to host Larry Kudlow.
