🚨 JUST NOW — KEVIN O'LEARY ON THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ: "When we get out of this thing, I guarantee you there will be a new policy on keeping that two miles stretch open in perpetuity no matter what the cost is!" "For the US, costs so far about $11-12 billion. I know it sounds like a lot of money — it's a rounding error in the cost of this thing staying closed to all of our allies that buy our goods and services. You have to put it in context."

🚨BREAKING: Iran is striking major ports and oil tankers in the Middle East and this could trigger a crash in stock markets. The Strait of Hormuz is effectively blocked. Around 20 million barrels of oil per day pass through this route. Nearly 20% of global LNG exports, mainly from Qatar, also move through here. If this route stays disrupted, the impact spreads fast. 1. It could push oil toward $100–$120 per barrel. If that happens, petrol and diesel prices rise globally. Electricity costs also increase in countries that rely on gas. Airlines, logistics companies, and manufacturers all face higher fuel costs. 2. Qatar is one of the world’s largest LNG exporters. If LNG shipments are delayed or blocked, Europe and Asia face tighter gas supply. Power generation costs go up. Governments may need to use emergency reserves again. That’s why some analysts are comparing this to the 2022 energy crisis. 3. Shipping routes are being rerouted around Africa. That adds: 10–14 extra days to deliveries, higher fuel costs, and higher freight rates. Car manufacturers depend on just-in-time parts. If parts are delayed for weeks, production lines slow or temporarily stop. 4. The Gulf region exports key petrochemicals used to make fertilizer. If fertilizer supply tightens, farming costs rise and food prices increase in the coming months. This doesn’t hit instantly, but it builds over time. 5. War-risk insurance costs have reportedly jumped around 50%. For large vessels, that means hundreds of thousands of dollars in extra cost per trip. That reduces trade flow and pushes freight costs higher globally. The UAE has already shut its stock market for two days. Global markets are reacting. This is not just about oil prices moving up. It impacts energy supply, trade routes, inflation pressure, and global growth. If the disruption lasts more than a few weeks, the economic effects will compound quickly.

🚨 THEY SAY IT’S A CRISIS — BUT THEY’RE CASHING IN While people across the UK struggle at the pump… The government is taking more than ever. Fuel prices rise… And so does the tax take. Not because rates increased. But because higher prices mean higher revenue. Up to half of what you pay at the pump goes straight to the Treasury. That means: As your costs surge… Their income surges. At the same time, the government is: Accusing businesses of profiteering Summoning fuel and supermarket leaders Talking about “support” But avoiding the one thing that would actually make a difference: Reducing the burden. There are levers they could pull: Cut fuel duty Increase domestic production Stabilise supply Instead? They are managing the optics. Not the problem. And the consequences are already showing: Fuel stations under pressure Hauliers absorbing unsustainable costs Businesses passing prices downstream Which leads to one outcome: Higher prices for everything. This is not just about fuel. It’s about the entire system. Because when energy costs rise… Transport becomes expensive Food becomes expensive Living becomes expensive And when businesses can no longer operate sustainably… They shut down. This is how pressure builds. Quietly. Until it isn’t quiet anymore. The question is not whether this affects you. It’s how far it goes. And how prepared you are when it does.

🚨 THIS IS WHERE FOOD PRICES EXPLODE A UK haulier has just laid it out in plain terms. Fuel costs up 48% since the start of the year. £4,000 more per week… just to keep trucks moving. Over £200,000 extra per year — for the same work. And now? For the first time ever — they’re adding fuel surcharges. Understand what this means. Every single product in a supermarket is delivered by diesel. If diesel rises… Everything rises. But here’s the breaking point: Many haulage companies cannot absorb these costs. They either: Pass it on Or stop operating And when transport slows… Supply chains break. This is where it hits hardest: Supermarkets. Food deliveries. Everyday essentials. Not in theory. In reality. Because once it becomes unviable to move goods… It doesn’t matter what’s in storage. It never reaches the shelves. This is how you get: Rapid price spikes Reduced availability Empty gaps in stores Not everywhere at once. But enough to change behaviour. This is no longer just rising prices. This is system strain. And when the system strains… It doesn’t warn you twice. Prepare now. Because once disruption becomes visible to everyone… It’s already too late.

South Korea is facing sharp increases in fuel prices amid global energy volatility and regional tensions. President Lee Jae-myung has proposed two direct interventions: a government-imposed maximum price system on fuel and a vehicle rotation system that would restrict driving on certain days based on the last digit of a license plate. These measures aim to reduce consumption and stabilize costs but would significantly limit individual movement and market pricing mechanisms. Lee has so far resisted calls for a broad fuel tax cut, which remains one of the public’s most requested relief measures. The proposals arrive at a time when household budgets are strained, transportation costs affect daily life, and public frustration with inflation is mounting. Past attempts at price controls and rationing in various countries have often led to shortages, black markets, or unintended economic distortions. In South Korea, where car ownership is widespread and personal mobility is essential, any policy that curbs driving rights or overrides market prices carries immediate social and economic weight. When a president floats ideas that directly restrict personal freedoms and economic choice to address a cost-of-living crisis, citizens need to understand the trade-offs involved. These are not abstract policy options—they would touch everyday routines, commuting, and family life. Do you think restricting driving days and capping fuel prices would effectively ease the burden on households, or would it create more problems than it solves?

🚨 Truflation has recorded a sharp drop (-0.73%) in U.S. inflation over the past few days. Yes, it is real. 🇺🇸 But what does this mean exactly, and how does it relate to upcoming BLS prints? 📽️ The video explains crystal clear how our inflation rate has consistently led BLS trend changes throughout 2024—and what this might signal for 2025. But first… why has this drop occurred? According to Truflation data, the biggest drivers behind this move were: 📉 Transportation Costs Stabilizing – Fuel prices, shipping costs, and logistical expenses have eased, reducing inflationary pressure. ⚡ Utilities Prices Cooling – Energy markets have become more stable, slowing the rise in electricity and gas costs. 🏡 Housing Market Adjustments – Rental price increases have moderated, and housing-related costs are no longer surging at the same pace. 🌍 Supply Chain Normalization – Global supply chains have improved, making pricing more predictable in previously disrupted sectors. 💳 Consumer Behavior Adjustments – Higher interest rates and economic conditions have slowed demand, reducing price pressures in key categories. Interpreting the Trend This decline signals a shift in inflationary momentum, but it does not necessarily indicate broad-based deflation. Instead, it reflects: ✅ Easing cost pressures in sectors that previously saw rapid price hikes. ✅ A mathematical effect from year-over-year calculations at the start of the month. To understand where inflation is heading, month-over-month trends will be crucial—determining whether this is part of a sustained disinflationary trend or just a temporary adjustment. So if history rhymes… The BLS typically catches up to us ~45 days later (sometimes even more), unless they get creative with the numbers 🧐. But here’s an important distinction to remember: We don’t aim to replicate BLS numbers—we have our own methodology for calculating CPI. While absolute values won’t match, the trends do. 📈📉 That’s why Truflation is a leading indicator (RT + 30 Million data points + uploaded in the blockchain), helping you anticipate where BLS inflation prints will pivot—and for how long they’ll stay on the same trend. Transparency and real-time data will be critical this year, especially for FED policy decisions. The government’s handling of tariffs and economic policy could have major implications.🌋 And we’ll be here to report it—up to two months before official data drops. — Truflation Team 🫡🇺🇸

🚨 GLOBAL FOOD SYSTEM BREAKING — THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING An Australian farmer just laid it out clearly: “Food security = National Security.” Look at the reality: Water: $100 rising to $550 per ML Urea: $600–700 rising to $1,500+ per tonne Diesel: $1.60 rising to $3.20+ per litre Power: $47 rising to $160 And the result? “Your food is so expensive… your cost of living has gone through the roof.” Tomatoes now $9–$10/kg Carrots have tripled Potatoes reaching $5/kg This isn’t just Australia. Fertiliser, fuel, energy, water — these are global inputs. When they spike in one country… they ripple everywhere. “We export the gas… then import it back as fertiliser.” That’s the system. And it’s under strain. This is how shortages begin. Not empty shelves overnight — but rising costs… tightening supply… Until it hits. Preparation isn’t panic. It’s reality. Freedom Train International shows you what to do before the system breaks.

And it changes EVERYTHING about the Iran ground war. 🚨🚨🚨 THE U.S. IS ABOUT TO UNLEASH THE A-10 WARTHOG ON IRAN → THE MOST FEARED GROUND-ATTACK AIRCRAFT EVER BUILT 🚨🚨🚨 The A-10 Thunderbolt II wasn't designed for air superiority. It was designed for ONE thing: erasing everything on the ground. Process that. → GAU-8 Avenger rotary cannon — fires 3,900 rounds per minute of depleted uranium → Each round penetrates ANY armored vehicle Iran has → The gun is so powerful, the ENTIRE aircraft was built AROUND it → Can carry 16,000 lbs of mixed ordnance — Mavericks, JDAMs, cluster munitions → Cost per flight hour: $6,000. An F-35 costs $36,000. 💀 IRGC convoys = GONE in a single strafe 💀 Basij ground units = no armor survives the GAU-8 💀 Iran's entire ground defense doctrine = OBSOLETE against low-altitude CAS 💀 Supply lines from Tehran to the front = erased in 48 hours ⚠️ The A-10 was built specifically to destroy Soviet tank columns — Iran's armor is 40 years older ⚠️ The U.S. has 281 A-10s. Iran has ZERO equivalent aircraft. ⚠️ A-10 pilots train for exactly this — contested ground warfare against dug-in forces They're showing you stealth fighters and carrier strike footage. They're NOT showing you that the Pentagon just greenlit the ugliest, most brutal aircraft in the fleet. You don't deploy Warthogs for airstrikes → you deploy Warthogs when ground forces are closing in → and ground forces only close in when the invasion has ALREADY been decided. This is the most significant CAS deployment since Desert Storm. Prepare accordingly. 🚨🚨🚨 This post is being throttled. Like + RT to keep it alive. ⚠️

🚨 AUSTRALIA IS BEING ASKED TO ADAPT — BECAUSE ITS GOVERNMENT FAILED TO PREPARE The Albanese government is now telling Australians: The shocks are coming. The months ahead won’t be easy. Everyone must “do their bit.” But here’s the real question: Why are Australians being asked to carry the burden… For a crisis the government should have prepared for? This is not leadership. This is damage control. Cutting fuel excise for three months is not a solution. It is a temporary patch. Telling people: “Use public transport” “Don’t take more fuel than you need” “Think of others” Is not a strategy. It is an admission. An admission that: Australia is exposed Australia is vulnerable Australia is dependent Because after years of policy decisions: Energy security was not prioritised Domestic production was not strengthened Resilience was not built And now the consequences are arriving. Farmers need diesel. Truckers need fuel. Supply chains depend on both. You cannot run a country on good intentions and short-term measures. And yet that is exactly what is being offered: Temporary tax cuts Public messaging Hope that global supply holds Hope is not policy. At a time when global energy routes are under pressure… When supply chains are tightening… When costs are rising rapidly… Australians are being told to adjust their behaviour… Instead of seeing a government that has already secured their future. This is the difference between: Preparation And reaction And right now… Australia is reacting. The months ahead may not be easy. But they didn’t have to be this uncertain. Strong leadership anticipates crises. Weak leadership explains them after they arrive.

Brand new mother confirms the cost to have a baby in America, she even shows her bills “This is how much it costs to give birth in America, $44,318.41” “I had my little guy three weeks ago, so they definitely wasted no time sending me that bill” “Birth with epidural, no complications, and I was in the hospital for about two days. So I'm gonna break everything down for you guys” - A private one bed room and board was $10,100 - Pharmacy was $89.40 - Laboratory was $859 - My epidural was $1,845 - Labor room and delivery was $10,275 - Specialty services was $585 - ‘Other services’ was a $1,347. And that's just one bill. We have multiple bills to go through, guys. - I also still have to pay my doctor who delivered my baby. So that was $4,395.85, and that's with insurance already. I'm not sure exactly how much it would have been without insurance. Then I did get another, like, epidural bill, and this is just for the doctor, not the epidural itself. And that is $2,060.86. And then lastly, baby boy also gets a bill too, and his bill is $12,761.30 And this is without insurance, we're still waiting for him to process on our insurance. So for now, this is the cost without it. And if you're curious on how much we pay for insurance for our family of five now, it's $2,500 a month. We originally were paying $2,138.48 for just the 4 of us. But other than that, that is how much it costs to give birth in America. Crazy.”

When wars start, the protagonists often assumes it'll be a short, sharp operation ... but they do have a habit of dragging on and on. Usually costs around $95 to fill my car ... today it was $165. If this goes on for much longer, we are going to be smashed by a recession (ask your grandparents about 1973). The federal government can fix this right now with two simple moves: 1. Lift the 2014 ban on importing Russian oil. We are already importing a heap of Russian oil ... but we do it via India who refine it and take a big mark-up which is paid by you at the bowser. So pre-war the sanctions were pointless but now they are a national security threat. The US has done this. Chris Bowen has said it is under consideration - good. 2. Scrap the federal fuel tax (they call it an “excise” to sound fancy). That tax adds 52.6 cents a litre. I’d prefer both gone permanently, but if our leaders can’t stomach that, suspend both measures until the Strait of Hormuz is back to full capacity. It is prudent to assume that will not be for some time.

THE IRAN WAR IS A $200 BILLION NATIONAL HUMILIATION. 🚨 Scott Ritter (Scott Ritter) exposes a U.S. strategy - to the extent there is a strategy at all - that refuses to "acknowledge the scope and scale of the failures" of the Iran war The cold reality of the Middle East conflict: "Iran won the war." We have a bigger and more powerful arsonal, but wars aren't fought on spreadsheets, and sometimes geography and culture/history weigh more in the war scales than bombs and missiles. While official costs are downplayed, Ritter warns: "we're talking about a $200 billion war" - so far. The final outcome? Even now, more than two months in, we're seeking a negotiated deal that is LESS good than the one we had in our pocket on 26 April, two days before the war started. But now, our negotiating position is much weaker, and we likely won't get anywhere near as good of terms as we had then. Thus, we have lost the war because not only will we have not gained out entry objectives, Iran will exit stronger geopolitically. This is a "humiliation" that Washington is desperate to erase from the record. But will not be able to do so. 📺 Watch the full clip for the unvarnished truth: 👉 #IranWar #ScottRitter #USStrategy #NationalSecurity #MiddleEastConflict #DeepDive #AmericaFirst #USCT2026 #Geopolitics #ForeignPolicy #BreakingNews #MilitaryStrategy

Floating hotels, raw sewage & UN hypocrisy in Belém After two red-eye flights and 24 hours of travel, we finally made it to Belém, Brazil — and were greeted by exactly what you’d expect from the city hosting a giant UN climate change conference for 55,000 elites: raw sewage flowing straight into the Amazon. Belém treats just 4% of its sewage. And only 20% of households are connected to the system — meaning the rest just washes into the streets, into the river, and right past the cruise ships. You can smell it before you see it. And about those ships… Officials brought in two mega-liners, the MSC Seaview and the Costa Diadema, as floating hotels for delegates. Brazilian organizers even brag that the ships “boost capacity” for the conference. Getting to the Port of Outeiro took us an hour in traffic. According to the UN’s own information, it’s a 33-minute commute one way from Outeiro to the conference venue. So that’s thousands of delegates burning fuel in buses and Ubers every single day — but don’t worry, your pickup truck is the real climate threat. Meanwhile, the very mouth of the Amazon — the gateway to the rainforest — is where untreated sewage is pouring out right beside the luxury liners housing the world’s climate royalty. Not that they’ll notice it through the tinted windows of their shuttle vans. We’re here because someone has to show the side of the UN climate change conference the regime media won’t: the private jets, the idling limos, and now the floating hotels bobbing in raw sewage. We’ve been officially accredited this year, and we’ll bring you the truth from inside and outside the conference. But getting here — and working here — is expensive. If you want honest reporting from Belém, without the UN filter, please chip in to help cover the costs and follow all our coverage at We’ll show you what’s really happening here, the hypocrisy, the waste, the contradictions, because someone has to.

JUST IN: A drone just hit a fuel tank at the busiest airport in the Middle East. The Dubai Media Office confirmed it 23 minutes ago. “A drone incident in the vicinity of Dubai International Airport (DXB) affected one of the fuel tanks. Dubai Civil Defence teams are currently working to bring the fire under control. No injuries have been reported so far.” That is the official statement from Dubai Media Office, posted in English and Arabic, with thousands of views in the first half hour. The fuel tank is burning. Civil Defence is on scene. The airport that processed 87 million passengers last year, the global hub that connects 260 destinations across six continents, the physical embodiment of everything Dubai built over three decades, has a fuel tank on fire because a drone that costs less than a business-class seat through Terminal 3 reached the aviation fuel supply that keeps the hub operational. This is the third confirmed drone incident at or near DXB since the war began. On 11 March, two drones struck near the airport, injuring four people. On 1 March, drones hit AWS data centres in the same corridor. Today, the target was not a server farm or a residential tower. It was aviation fuel. The escalation is vertical: from data to shelter to the liquid that makes the airport function. Fuel tanks at international airports are not incidental targets. They are the circulatory system of aviation. DXB operates on jet fuel stored in tank farms adjacent to the runways. A sustained fire in a fuel tank does not merely delay flights. It grounds the refuelling infrastructure that determines whether aircraft depart at all. Civil Defence is containing this fire. The question is not whether this fire is contained. The question is whether the next drone reaches the next tank, and whether the insurance market, the airline route planners, and the 87 million annual passengers calculate that a 94% interception rate over an airport fuel farm is sufficient assurance to book the ticket. The cumulative toll on the UAE since 28 February: 294 ballistic missiles, 15 cruise missiles, over 1,600 drones. Six dead. 141 injured. AWS data centres struck. Creek Harbour and 23 Marina towers burning from debris. The Burj Al Arab facade hit. Jebel Ali Port targeted. Fujairah oil zone fires. The Iranian Hospital closed. Five schools shuttered. Twenty-one people charged for filming. And now a fuel tank at the airport that defines the city burning while Civil Defence teams work to contain what the air defence system intercepted everywhere except here. The $600 million daily regional tourism loss was calculated before a fuel tank at DXB caught fire. The DFM Real Estate Index was down 21.4% before a fuel tank at DXB caught fire. The $20 billion DFC insurance facility had zero confirmed takers before a fuel tank at DXB caught fire. Every metric of economic damage that existed this morning is now being recalculated against a new data point: the airport itself is no longer outside the target set. Dubai built the busiest airport in the Middle East to prove the Gulf was open for business. Iran just proved it is open for drones. The fuel tank is burning. Civil Defence is responding. No injuries reported. And somewhere in the Gulf, a Shahed that cost $20,000 to $35,000 just imposed a repricing event on an aviation hub worth hundreds of billions by reaching the one target that converts a “drone incident” from a security event into an infrastructure crisis: the fuel that keeps the planes flying. Full analysis!

$This was one of the moments in history—you know the kind that you will still be looking back on 20 years down the road? President Trump just signed the most aggressive executive order on drug pricing in American history. Standing before reporters and his health team, he announced a plan that could slash prescription costs by up to 90%—a direct hit on Big Pharma and the rigged system that’s drained American wallets for decades. “Starting today, the United States will no longer subsidize the health care of foreign countries, which is what we were doing,” Trump said. “We were subsidizing others health care, countries where they paid a small fraction of what for the same drug that what we pay many, many times more for.” He made it clear: this isn’t just about corporate greed. It’s about a global game that’s been played at America’s expense. “And will no longer tolerate profiteering and price gouging from Big Pharma,” he added. “But again, it was really the countries that forced Big Pharma to do things that frankly, I'm not sure they really felt comfortable doing, but they've gotten away with it, these countries, European Union has been brutal, brutal.” Trump said the new policy will finally level the playing field. “So for the first time in many years, we’ll slash the cost of prescription drugs and we will bring fairness to America.” How much cheaper? It could be massive. “If you think of a drug that is sometimes ten times more expensive, it’s much more than the 59%... but between 59 and 80 and I guess even 90%.” For struggling families, this wasn’t just reform, it was relief.$

Let me break this down without sugar-coating a damn thing: America is one medical event away from financially euthanizing its own elders. Everybody loves to chant “support our seniors” right up until the moment they need actual hands-on care — then suddenly it’s Congratulations, you’re broke now. Because here’s the truth nobody wants to say out loud: Taking care of an elderly parent in this country doesn’t cost “a little money.” No. It costs a house. It costs a retirement account. It costs your sanity. It costs your life savings and then the government sends you a thank-you note by putting a Medicaid lien on the family home after your parent dies, just to clean out the leftovers. You want the numbers? Let’s go. Home care? $33 an hour. That’s $8,000 a month just to keep someone safe in their own damn home. Assisted living? $5,900 a month — $71,000 a year. More than college. Less useful. Memory care? Hope you’ve got two kidneys to sell. Nursing home? $111,000 to $128,000 a year. That’s not a bill — that’s a ransom note. And while families are drowning, caregivers — the people keeping our loved ones alive — are paid $16 an hour, while agencies bill $34+ and pocket the difference like it’s a clearance sale on human suffering. Meanwhile Medicare — the thing Americans THINK pays for their parents’ care — doesn’t pay for ANY long-term custodial help. Not at home. Not in assisted living. Not even in a nursing home beyond a short rehab stay. They kick you to the curb the second you’re stable enough to blink — “good luck, hope your kids aren’t broke yet.” So who pays? Medicaid. But only if you’re poor enough to practically vanish. Only if you sell down, spend down, or die down to qualify. And even THEN, there’s a 3-year, 4-year, 5-year waitlist for home care in some states. Imagine being 87, needing help with bathing and eating, and the government basically says, “Sure, sweetie — get on the list, we’ll call you by 2029.” Families step in — unpaid, exhausted, wrecked. America survives on the backs of daughters, daughters-in-law, and burned-out adult children quietly doing $600 billion worth of unpaid care every single year while the insurance industry gets fat selling policies with premiums that jump 30% overnight. And nursing homes? Corporate chains. Private equity. Debt stacked on debt. They make their money not from love, not from care — but from Medicare rehab margins and private-pay seniors who bleed out their savings to subsidize everyone else. Your grandma’s Social Security check is not keeping the lights on. Your grandma’s house is. This isn’t a system. This is a machine — designed to take every last dollar a family has before they’re allowed to get help. A machine that punishes aging, punishes disability, punishes the poor, and punishes anyone who dares to live long enough to need care. So when politicians talk about “cutting healthcare,” When they casually vote to slash ACA subsidies, gut Medicaid, or privatize Medicare with a grin like it’s a fun little math problem, Let me translate what they’re actually saying: “If your parents get sick… you’re on your own. If your husband gets dementia… sell the house. If YOU get disabled… pray you die quickly.” Because without coverage? Without Medicaid? Without ACA? Without guardrails? Elder care in America becomes a luxury product. Only the rich age with dignity. Everyone else ages with debt. This isn’t politics. This is survival. This is the bill every American family eventually gets — and the bill our leaders pretend doesn’t exist. We’re not fighting for healthcare. We’re fighting for our future ability to not abandon the people who raised us. Because one day, if this system isn’t fixed, it won’t be your parents you’re terrified for. It’ll be you.
