Sustained winds of 150mph and 50ft waves.
Folks in Saipan are US citizens and they need our help.

War is a rich man’s game that hurts real people.
The war on Iran likely brings a new oil price shock and windfall profits.
So, who stands to win?
Our research shows: Last time around (2022), the US reaped the largest fossil fuel profits of any country ($377bn). 50% went to the top 1%, only 1% to the bottom 50%. A🧵
