Iranian desalination plant hit -> Iran fires at desalination plants.
Iranian gas field hit ->Iran fires at gas fields.
Iranian nuclear installation hit ->Iran fires at nuclear installations.
TWO patterns at work here:
1) They're hit first
2) They retaliate in kind

Everything we need to do to stop climate breakdown, we also need to do for national security. Energy saving, more renewables, more electricity storage and interconnectors, electrification of transport, heating, cooking and industrial processes, plant-based diets. We win on all fronts.

So, my understanding for tomorrow is if the S&P 500 drops:
* 355 points (7%) before 3:25pm ET, then that will trip a 15-minute circuit breaker;
* 660 points (13%) before 3:25pm ET, then another 15-minute circuit breaker;
* 1015 points (20%) will halt trading for the remainder of the day.

I read on CNBC that s&p futures triggered a circuit breaker briefly this evening. It’s going to be awful tomorrow. Also Bitcoin is crashing which I’m kind of happy about because Trump has aligned himself with crypto. Well,
also because I’m short bitcoin.

If you are Japanese and Trump just crashed your markets due to the intertwined nature of your economies. Would you want to grow that dependency or diversify to reduce dependence with the USA? #japan #usa #trumptariffs #orangemonday. This is going to end badly #trump.

A little while ago, my parents' cat Bridget went missing. As the weeks dragged on, they became extremely worried. My dad devised a way to distract himself: he began to paint Bridget's adventures, imagining her travelling through time and popping up in some of art and music's most iconic scenes.

During the 2008 financial crisis, it was all hands on deck. McCain paused his campaign, and went back to Washington to work on a bill.
This time, the lunatics are stepping on the gas to take the bus completely off the cliff.

Trump sent his cabinet to the Sunday shows to reassure, and they said the tariffs are permanent/being negotiated, strategic/across the board and will fix the trade deficit/manufacturing/national defense/toe fungus.
Collectively they made it clear there's no plan beyond one man's whims.

Every Cabinet member has different, contradictory talking points about supposed purpose of these tariffs.
Are they a negotiating tactic? Are they instead permanent, because we need them to raise revenue/boost US manufacturing?
Are they designed to return us to 1790s lifestyles & living standards?
