RANT: LOAVES AND FISHES? HELL, I WANT A BLT!

   
YOU WOULDN’T BE TOO FAR OFF THE MARK
if you thought the accompanying pic was of an audience full of red-eyed devils from hell. Or else it’s this senior demonstrating the extent of his Photoshop skills. Take your pick. For those who are strictly blue-pilled, this is a go-to weekly meeting held in the Pentagon* and led by “Secretary of War”, Pete Hegseth. What sort of meeting? Why, it’s a prayer meeting, a new meet-and-greet policy adopted by Born Again Pete to bring some old-time fire and brimstone back into the armed forces. 
Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth
I GUESS SecWar Hegseth wants to be sure his troops know that God is on their side, no matter what they do and that they're part of God’s earthly army dedicated to raising the third temple on the Mount in Jerusalem, announcing Armageddon, and ushering in the thousand-year reign of Christ on earth. Well, the SecWar may have to update that last part but, hey, it’s a work in progress. 
 
Yesterday, on an earthly plane, during Judge Napolitano’s "Judging Freedom" YouTube  podcast, Judge Nap played a short (thankfully!) clip of Hegseth’s prayer-casting or whatever he was doing Monday morning. [@21:50 to 23:12 of the show] For those of a more secular or agnostic bent, as well as most red-pilled folk, it’s advisable to keep an airsick bag nearby; it may be needed. And while the majority sit enthralled, eyes ablaze with light from a beckoning End Times, not everyone is happy to be there. Some thought coffee and doughnuts would be served before the praying got started. Live and learn, my friends, live and learn. 
๐Ÿ‘‰NOTE: With a red arrow I've pointed out a possible apostate in the crowd. Naturally, he will be confined to the burning lake of fire for all eternity.1 However, an eternity spent in the fires of hell's dark ovens might be  preferable to listening to SecWar Hegseth's prayerifying.
๐Ÿ‘‰AND THE EXPRESSION on this guy's face  is priceless! You can almost read his mind:
"What.. The fuck.. Is this? I'm going to punch him in his stupid face. Hard. No doughnuts or bagels? I'm outta here!"
 
CHEERS, JAKE.๐Ÿ˜œ _____________________________________
 
* You can tell the video is from the Pentagon because there’s a “Pentagon” icon at the bottom-right corner. But, if you thought the group looked more like lost souls trapped in a DEI meeting mandated by HR, you’d be excused for misidentifying the group. Folks, it's the Pentagon for Christ's sake! These are the people that shape and flesh-out the Department of War's trillion-dollar budget.2 Question is: Do they have their eye on the ball or on a blood-soaked End Times? And if contemplating that doesn’t give you pause or send chills up your withers, nothing will. Just sayin'.
 
1. Or he may be demoted, or passed over for promotion, or his job could be declared redundant.
 
2. Next year to become a bloated $1.5-trillion.

RANT: OILOILOILOILOILOILOILOILOILOILOIOILOILOILOILOILOILOIOILOILOILOILOIL

   
HERE’S SOMETHING TO CONSIDER:
Will the closure of the Hormuz Strait by Iran to countries predominately aligned with American interests really cause serious disruptions for the economies of importing nations? Yes, potentially, as this chart from the JP Morgan banking group shows.๐Ÿ‘‡The hashed circles display the chief importing countries in each region. The dates outlined for the various countries within each circle indicates the date when waterborne deliveries of crude oil will stop, i,e., when all the tankers currently at sea arrive at their destination and discharge their cargo. For example, deliveries from the Persian Gulf to the EU will mostly stop by April 10. China, which imports 5.2-million barrels per day (bpd) of oil will see its source of Persian Gulf crude cease around April 1 [That’s no joke! Ed.]
 
After that, the Chinese will have to use their strategic oil reserves to fuel  their economy or else source oil from other producers, and Russia would be the obvious place for it to pick up any shortfall in imports. Either way China is well-placed to deal with disruptions to its supply lines in the Gulf. It has between 80 to 120 days of reserves, with total inventories of over one-billion barrels to be released into the economy as needed.* SOUTH KOREA is prepared for a shutdown of Persian Gulf oil with its strategic reserves of public and private holdings. It has between 200 to 254 days of crude in its stockpiles. On the other hand, the PHILIPPINES has no formal, strategic oil reserves. It gets 95% of its daily fuel from 'just-in-time' imports, and 25% of those imports coming from the Persian Gulf. It's economy is able to last 4-5 weeks before it runs out of petroleum and distillates.
 If the Gulf remains closed for an indefinite period of time, the Philippines will have to obtain alternate sources of oil, no doubt more expensive and within a shorter timeframe than, say, China or South Korea. Already, nations are talking about rationing, asking their populations to conserve fuel whenever possible, with further restrictions down the road.
IT WILL BE INTERESTING to see how Japan deals without Gulf oil upon which it depends for 73% of its energy imports (Japan has zilch oil deposits on its territory). Perhaps it will make nice with the Russians and do some business together.
 
Asia, overall, will be hit hard by any disruption of Persian Gulf oil, importing, as it does, 84% of its fuel that's delivered via the Hormuz Strait and 83% of its LNG (Liquified Natural Gas).1 EVEN IF the war ended today, there would still be repercussions from closing the Straits, and global supply chains in many sectors will be affected. High gasoline prices in America is one indicator, which is why the Trump administration quietly dropped its illegal tariffs on Iranian and Russian oil shipments, in an bid to keep global stocks topped-up with enough crude to keep prices as low as possible. 
IN MARCH, the U.S. released 172-million barrels of crude. In addition, the IEA (International Energy Agency), a 32-member nation organisation that provides analysis, data, policy recommendations and real-world solutions for energy related problems, released 400-million barrels from its emergency reserves, also in March, for the same purpose—to keep oil prices down. How long this can continue is anyone’s guess.
๐Ÿ‘‰BUT, IF YOU HADN’T STARTED THIS FUCKING, STUPID WAR oil would still be in the price range that modern economies can handle, well below one-hundred-dollars per barrel, with adequate flows keeping everybody well lubed, ready and steady!๐Ÿ˜Ÿ
    
CHEERS, JAKE. _____________________________________
 
* If things go pear-shaped, as they well might, then there will not only be delivery problems with oil from the Persian Gulf but also production problems. If attacks are made to Iran’s oil infrastructure, this would almost certainly trigger a proportionate response from Iran against all Gulf countries it is in conflict with, damaging their oil fields, ports, and storage facilities in kind. Note that approximately 25% of global seaborne traffic in oil originates from the Gulf, most of it destined for Asian markets. An attack on Iran’s Kharg Island, which has extensive oil facilities, would almost certainly precipitate a destabilizing tit-for-tat escalation of the conflict.
 
1 INTERESTING NOTE: A couple of days ago, a China bound oil tanker the Al Salmi was hit by a drone as it was leaving Dubai waters. It was presumably fired on by Iran. Perhaps it was attacked because it was a Kuwaiti-registered vessel and therefore considered property of a hostile nation and a legitimate target for Iran. Or, perhaps the captain of the vessel refused to pay the new transit fee. Or, maybe it was a "false flag" attack designed to throw shade on Iran and escalate the conflict. Who knows; it's "fog of war" time again. 
Iran has begun charging transit fees for all vessels passing through the Straits, a practice that will net them billions annually. So it goes.
 

 
 

QUOTES: Pete Hegseth, U.S. "Secretary of War"*

 

IN HIS IRAN WAR UPDATE during a March 24 White House press conference, Pete Hegseth, the self-styled “Secretary of War”*, in another of his speechifying fever dreams, proffered this boner:  
 
”We negotiate with bombs.”
 
 
 When will these people learn to shut-up?
 
 CHEERS, 
JAKE.๐Ÿ˜‚ ________________________________________________
 
* As I understand it, the title “Secretary of War” and renaming the Department of Defence as the “Department of War” do not have legal standing. Any change to Cabinet and department titles must be voted on in the American legislature. This was not done. But puffed-up peacocks like Hegseth can’t be bothered by a little thing like the American Constitution. I think Hegseth would make a fetching entrance before the cameras dressed as Darth Vader. "Darth Pete". It has a nice ring to it, don’t you think?๐Ÿ’€
 
FUN FACT: In 2018 Hegseth’s mother, Penelope, sent him an email that said: ‘You are an abuser of women – that is the ugly truth, and I have no respect for any man that belittles, lies, cheats, sleeps around, and uses women for his own power and ego. You are that man (and have been for years) and as your mother, it pains me and embarrasses me to say that, but it is the sad, sad truth.’” (Guardian)
๐Ÿ‘‰Me thinks the dear boy has some mommy issues to work through. Perhaps he should return to being a Fox News weekend newscaster. We'd all be the better for it if that happens.๐Ÿ˜†

RANT: THE CONTINENTAL BUMP AND GRIND!

   
A BIT OF GOOD NEWS for a change as West Asia (Middle East) heats up with extended air campaigns from both sides of the Persian Gulf. In addition, U.S. marine contingents are arriving in the region and reservists at home have been notified their services may be required. It looks like a go for some kind of ground invasion, possibly to open the Straits of Hormuz which has been closed to American and allied fleets. We may see American (and Israeli) troops engaging with Iranian troops by the weekend.๐Ÿ˜–
๐Ÿ‘‰But, what’s the good news, you ask. Well, it’s all about location, location, location. Every realtor’s wet dream. The Persian Gulf is closing permanently with the help of mother nature and her tectonic plates. The Arabian Plate is shifting towards Eurasia and in three-million-years or so it will pinch off the entrance to the gulf, making it an inland sea that will eventually evaporate, leaving both sides on the same side and in peace. Can’t argue with geology. Stay tuned.*
 
 
CHEERS, JAKE.
 ________________________________________
* Here, I must sound the alarm for oil producers and extractors in region. The crashing together of the Arabian and Asian tectonic plates spells the end for the vast petroleum reserves in the Gulf, with excessive heat and pressure the main culprits in degrading the trapped hydrocarbons. So, best get all the oil out before it’s too late! 
 
   

INTERESTING STATISTICS

 
Artist Rendition of orbiting debris and functional satellites 
“Number of rockets launched since the start of the space age in 1957: About 7170 (excluding failures)
Number of satellites these rocket launches have placed into Earth orbit: About 25170
Number of these still in space: About 16910
Number of these still functioning: About 14200
Number of space objects regularly tracked by Space Surveillance Networks and maintained in their catalogue: About 44870
Estimated number of break-ups, explosions, collisions, or anomalous events resulting in fragmentation: More than 650
Total mass of all space objects in Earth orbit: More than 15800 tonnes.
NOT ALL objects are tracked and catalogued. The number of objects estimated based on statistical models to be in orbit:
54000 space objects greater than 10 cm (including approx. 9300 active payloads)
1.2 million space debris objects from greater than 1 cm to 10 cm
140 million space debris objects from greater than 1 mm to 1 cm.”
  
AND SPACEX’S CHIEF BILLIONAIRE-IN-RESIDENCE,
Elon Musk, wants to put “one million” StarLink satellites into orbit. That would certainly upgrade our current night skies populated by all those boring, slow-moving stars, with only occasional falling ones to spice things up. More glittering objects in space is just what the doctor ordered! Who needs vast, primordial regions of dark lit by unimaginably distant stars. And concerns that cascading collisions in an over-crowded sky will damage satellites that provide global communications, GPS services and a host of other, vital operations? Those worrys are over-blown aren't they? So, don't worry as the song says. Be happy.
๐Ÿ˜Ÿ1,000,000 StarLink sats? What could possibly go wrong?

RANT: RENDEZVOUS IN KIEV

 

"Left, right, left, ri...Manny, keep up! Olaf! No goose-stepping! Guys, we can do this! Left, right, lef..." 

LAST MONTH, Chrystia Freeland announced she was quitting Canadian politics, and Canada, to take an ‘unpaid’ position as “economic advisor” to Ukraine’s president Volodymyr Zelensky, until she begins her new job as CEO of the Rhodes Trust, “a global educational trust” in Oxford, England in July. The trust administers the Rhodes scholarship, a prestigious award granted to scholars around the world to do their post-graduate studies at Oxford University. I won’t throw too much shade here because I don’t know much about the award other than it was established in his 1902 by Cecil Rhodes, British imperialist and colonizer bar none, who named southern African territory after himself (Rhodesia), and having done his level best to hoover up all the wealth from what is now Zimbabwe and Zambia. In his 1902 will, Rhodes established the educational trust, also bearing his name, turning the vast fortune he made in the gold and diamond mines of South Africa to better use than he ever did.
Freeland is a Rhodes Scholar and has said she is looking forward to returning to her old stomping grounds at Oxford. Chrystia, don’t let the door hit you on the way out! 
Regardless of her educational pedigree (or, perhaps because of it), Chrystia metamorphosed into a globalist, World Economic Forum (WEF) acolyte, and Klaus Schwab groupie. In her role as finance minister, she was the wunderkind behind freezing the assets and bank accounts of protestors and supporters during 2022’s Canadian Trucker demonstrations against the repressive Covid-19 policies enacted by Justin Trudeau's Liberal government. Her policies broke the back of those uppity truckers and their supporters. Nice work, Chrystia!
Freeland is of Ukrainian heritage, and not surprisingly she strongly supported the Trudeau government’s 22-billion dollars in cash and assistance to the Zelensky regime since the start of Russia’s “special military operation.” She knows where the aid money has gone, which puts her in good stead to rake in dough from brain-dead Europeans who still think throwing good money after bad is the bees' knees of fiscal policy, especially money for its proxy par excellence, Ukraine. Ninety billion dollars or more—money borrowed by the EU with principal and interest paid for by EU citizens—is set to sink further into the Ukraine money pit over the next two years. And Chrystia will work with President Zelensky to squirrel away scads of money into offshore accounts stabilize Ukraine’s finances, at least for the time being, directing incoming aid money for a country that will soon enough be little more than a landlocked rump state, with investors (public and private) betting a losing hand that it will remain whole and not become “uninvestible” going forward. But, these two (Zelensky and Freeland) have it made in the shade. 
Ukraine, you are more than welcome to her. Hopefully, someday, she’ll find a harmless role to play like the one former PM Justin Trudeau has adopted as Katy Perry’s “handbag”.

ZELENSKY: “You see Putin! Why? Howz?”
FREELAND: "I knew him long before I met you, Vovo. I hate what he’s doing to Ukraine. But he’s a man. He’s charming and…”
ZELENSKY: “Charmsing! Like snake-charmer is charmsing!”
FREELAND: “I knew you'd react this way. I wish I hadn't told you, now. He’s changed over the years. He was boyish back then. Carefree. All he wanted was to practice law. But party politics drew him in. I guess he caught the bug. We would argue about it sometimes. He used to live in a houseboat on the Moska River. Believe it or not…"
ZELENSKY: “I doan believes anytings any mores…”
FREELAND: “Don’t be like that. You asked me and now I’m telling you. We’d spend time on his boat. We’d argue then make love, then argue some more. We were young. It was the times. Ha-ha! I was always afraid of how sound carries over the water. Hah-ha! I said one time that the KGB might be listening. He laughed and said it’s called the FSB now. He said he was the FSB. He wasn’t a communist. Never had been. The country was changing back then but there still were many supporters of the old regime. Vlad was a progressive. He loved riding, hunting, fishing, the arts, literature. He even wrote me poems. I-I don’t know why I’m telling you this. It’s just that I’m a woman. I have needs. I…”

OPA ZELENSKY: “Hey, hot stuff, we gotta go. Russian missiles are inbound! By the saints, hurry up! Get dressed! We gotta get to the bomb shelter. Now!” [The sound of alarm bells can be heard nearby]
ZELENSKY: “Cool jets, Opa. Putin never launch attack before lunchtime." [To Freeland] "Darlinks, not to worryz. It always a false alarm. I gotz Putin by the ballz! Oh, yah! We got plenty time. Les you and me work on getting EU loan. Ninety-billion-bucks, babyz! We could buy island jus’ for us. Lie on beach. Get tanz all over, sand in our cracks, champagne and caviar. Good times, yah?”
FREELAND: “You make my head spin, Vovo. You’re a Svengali! I wanted to make you jealous, to make you see me like a man sees a woman. I want all or nothing. Oh, I’m like a silly schoolgirl around you!”
ZELENSKY: “Yah-yah!” [She dresses while Opa Zelensky gives her a thumbs up and several winks]
FREELAND: "I wanted to make you jealous—jealous of Vlad. I guess I wanted to make him jealous, too. I…That's why I told him about us, Vovo, about our weekend together. In Camelot, I said. It’s like a dream to me. I wish I hadn’t told him about us, about hooking-up with you…" [Sniffling as she picks up her laptop]
ZELENSKY: “Hey-hey, babez. It be all right soon. You see. Er…. You say you tell Putinz ‘bout us? Why you do diss?! Maybe he more jealous of you. Ever think diss? Maybe he try kill you. And me, cause I wit you. Russians are too hot-bloods. Almos as hot-bloods as Ukrainyee. Chrisy, maybe he track our phones right now. Oh fucs! Gods damn! Leaves phone and laptop, Sweetpizz. We need getz to shelter. Now. Come on! Opa, move out of way." [Zelensky pushes past his grandfather. Freeland helps Opa Zelensky wheel his breakfast cart to the elevator] 
FREELAND: “Faster, Opa. We haven’t much time! I can't believe this is happening. I had no idea Vlad would do this!" [Shouting] "Wait for us, Vlad! I mean Voloda.”
OPA ZELENSKY: [Winking] “I go all da way wit you Chrisey! Push-push. All da way. "
 
 
CHEERS, JAKE.
