🇺🇸 #Oklahoma high school principal (Kirk Moore) seen charging at and disarming a school shooter.

The suspect, identified as 20-year-old Victor Hawkins, was a former student who said he wanted to shoot up the school “like the Columbine shooters did.” While taking down the shooter, Moore was shot in the leg. He is expected to recover.

When the Principal woke up that day, he never thought he would be tackling a gunman.

For those who don’t know, Trump recently endorsed Maria Salazar for re-election (February, 2026) after she publicly called on him to provide mass amnesty for illegals more than 8 months ago.

But please keep telling me how Thomas Massie is the one who needs to go.

🌾 🇺🇸 👨‍🌾 U.S. Farm Bankruptcies Surge +46% as Fertilizer Costs Squeeze Farmers:

The American Farm Bureau Federation reported 315 Chapter 12 bankruptcy filings in 2025, up from 216 in 2024 and the third consecutive annual increase.

The Midwest got hit hardest with 121 filings, a +70% jump.

The Southeast followed with 105, up +69%.

Together, those two regions accounted for more than two-thirds of every farm bankruptcy in the country.

Fertilizer prices are pouring gasoline on the fire.

Urea, the most widely used nitrogen fertilizer on the planet, has ripped +87% year-to-date and trades near $720 a tonne.

For corn growers who depend on nitrogen, this is a dire situation.

Many farmers are reporting they will cut the amount of fertilizer they use, shift from corn toward less nitrogen-dependent soybeans, or just take the yield loss.

Farms are under pressure.

Trump said Iran could start “exploding from within” in a few days if its oil gets “clogged.”

It sounds exaggerated, but there’s truth to it.

Iran produces roughly 2 to 3.5 million barrels of oil every day, and that oil has to keep moving through ports, tankers, and export terminals like Kharg Island.

A large share of the government’s budget depends on that flow, so when exports are blocked and there’s NO EXIT ROUTE, the system doesn’t just pause, it starts backing up.

Storage tanks fill quickly, and while Iran does have capacity, somewhere in the range of 40 to 90 million barrels, that space can get used up surprisingly fast under full production.

Once those tanks hit their STORAGE LIMIT, there’s no room left to absorb anything, and that’s where the real pressure begins.

At that point, Iran is forced into a difficult position. They can either cut production and immediately lose massive daily revenue, easily over $100 million, or keep pumping oil into a system that has nowhere to send it.

That...

How International Agreement Could Resolve Economic Imbalances

Connectivity Project by Philip Pilkington

The past few years have been ones in which global conflict has flared up in a manner that is more concerning than at any time since the end of the Second World War. Economists cannot offer solutions to all complex geopolitical problems, but they know that trade imbalances tend to vastly increase tensions between nations and make compromise on these non-economic topics more difficult.

Due to the politics and economic structure of the time, the bancor was shelved in 1944. But due to the changes in the global economic system caused by aggressive globalization, there is a strong case to be made that its time has come. Implementing the bancor solution to world trade could provide a new constructive economic vision for a world economy that currently feels chaotic and unmoored. It could provide the keystone to global governance in the 21st century.
