IRAN EYES MIDTERMS: Tehran may want prolonged war for Trump defeat in November

Saudis will build nuclear reactors
Last week, the Cat’s Poll asked, “What happens if Democrats don’t win the Senate?”
69% of the readers said, “Xi simply buys more GOP senators.”
Surber’s Cynics never let me down.
Stockholders Union
Our income is under attack from both the right and left. The socialist left wants corporate profits to be restricted with higher taxes while the Trump administration has been intimidating corps to lower prices – both plans mean less income to pay their shareholders. Corporations use their gross income (profit before tax) for capital improvements and research. What remains after taxes is paid out as dividends to the owners (stockholders). Anyone who has common stock – either personally, in trust or in a retirement account – is at risk of losing income when publicly traded companies encounter reduced profits.
50% Tariffs and the USA-Canada Trade War
The United States has instituted yet another punitive tariff, this time on Canada. But why Canada – and why now – and why has Canada’s own government been working against the Canadian economy for so long?
Shockingly Underreported News and Commentary for the Week of 16 August
The Democrat-media complex have buried these
This is the third post in the ongoing weekly feature that highlights news and commentary on important geopolitical, cultural, and economic issues that the Democrat-media complex buries because they expose the hypocrisies associated with the continuing Marxist-Democrat narrative. Everything is properly sourced and linked for follow-up reading, whether from legacy media, independent sources, or social media.
Airlines and Wireless Solved Their Problem – Amongst Themselves. Not Fighting It Out in DC
There are, conservatively, a trillion problems a day that arise in the United States. I would, as a conservative, like government involved in as few of them as possible.
But because government at all levels is so huge? It crowds out all the private spaces – and with them the perception that private solutions are possible.
Goodbye Lawyers: The Last Billable Hour
The horse didn’t disappear when the automobile arrived. It simply stopped being essential. Artificial intelligence may be forcing the legal profession into a similar reckoning. When a $20 monthly subscription can research case law, organize evidence, draft motions, and explain legal procedure, the age of the billable hour may finally be facing its greatest challenge. Somewhere, an attorney is still billing in six-minute increments while AI has already finished the paperwork.

Dear Trump & Kudlow: This Is Not ‘A Golden Age.’ Your Delusions Fuel the Rise of the Democrat Socialists (DSA)
Yesterday – on Sunday, because the Internet never rests? I received in my inbox an op-ed from Larry Kudlow.
For those of you who don’t know…:
“Lawrence Alan Kudlow is an American conservative broadcast news analyst, economist, columnist, journalist, political commentator, and radio personality. He is a financial news commentator for Fox Business and served as the director of the National Economic Council during the Trump administration from 2018 to 2021.”
I’ve met Larry. He is a very nice guy.
That said: Kudlow is a standard-issue Washington, DC center-right economy guy. He is exactly the type of Republican economist – that is killing the Republican Party.
Kudlow’s economic messaging – is the Republicans’ economic messaging. And it is more tone deaf than a year’s worth of nationwide karaoke contests.
Expert makes big prediction about the labor market
American Action Forum president Douglas Holtz-Eakin and Evenflow Macro managing partner Marc Sumerlin evaluate the Trump administration’s economic policy on ‘Kudlow.’

Preemptive Request: Zero Government Bailouts for AI Fails, Please
The US’s Artificial Intelligence (AI) self-feeding frenzy is still…frenzy-ing.
Except everything about it seems fake.
The US’s Large Language Model (LLM) version of AI seems to be (at least) years away from the promises being made to feed the frenzy.
Which can be seen as a partially good thing – since no one has any idea what to do with the hundreds of millions of humans they tell us US AI will un-employ.
Meta to change Instagram, Facebook after judge rules it harms kids’ mental health
A New Mexico judge has ordered Meta to pay $567 million in penalties and make changes to its apps, saying its social media platforms harm children’s mental health.
Buckle Up, Buttercup
We love to celebrate the Greatest Generation—but would we recognize the world that forged them? As global tensions rise and America’s factories quietly prepare for contingencies once thought impossible, one question looms: if Detroit ever trades pickup trucks for artillery shells again, are we ready for what comes next? Buckle up, buttercup. History has a habit of collecting unpaid debts.
