DHS Shutdown & Democratic Opposition An extended shutdown continues of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), leaving approximately 200,000 employees unpaid. Attributes the shutdown to Democratic refusal to fund DHS due to opposition to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Republican Strategy on DHS Funding Explains that ICE and Customs & Border Protection (CBP) were pre‑funded through a prior reconciliation bill, insulating them from the shutdown. Criticizes short‑term funding approaches and argues Democrats will not support ICE funding in the foreseeable future. Use of Budget Reconciliation Advocates using budget reconciliation to bypass the Senate filibuster and pass funding with a simple majority. Proposes funding ICE and CBP for the maximum allowable 10 years rather than shorter-term extensions. Proposed Offensive Policy Approach Argues that Democratic obstruction should result in increased ICE funding (e.g., a 10% increase) rather than status‑quo responses. Frames this as both a policy and political countermeasure. Broader Conservative Legislative Agenda Calls for leveraging reconciliation to advance multiple conservative priorities before potential Republican losses in upcoming elections. Examples include: Preventing future shutdowns of critical services (air traffic control, TSA). Indexing capital gains taxes to inflation to reduce “phantom gains.” Expanding school choice and tax‑advantaged family policies. Economic & Housing Policy Rationale Explains how inflation‑indexed capital gains could increase housing supply by discouraging long-term holding solely for tax avoidance. Links tax reform to affordability and economic growth concerns. Election Integrity Measures Supports incorporating election integrity provisions into reconciliation where budget rules allow. Suggests conditioning federal election funding on compliance with integrity standards. Urgency & Historical Warning Draws comparisons to missed legislative opportunities in past Republican majorities. Argues reconciliation represents the last realistic chance to enact significant conservative legislation before expected political gridlock. Strategic “Tentpole” Concept Describes ICE and border security as unifying issues capable of holding a broad Republican coalition together. Warns that narrower or fragmented legislative efforts are likely to fail. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Tattoos have a long and colorful history across the world, and are an important part of many cultures. While 1 in 3 Americans have at least 1 tattoo today, western culture still sees the art form as counter culture, risque and rebellious. You might be shocked if you learned that your grandma was inked. And you certainly wouldn't expect that prim and proper royals of the Victorian era were concealing covert tattoos under their stiff dress uniforms and frilly gowns. But in fact, a handful of trend setting Princes in the late 19th century started an aristocratic craze for secret ink. Let's take a journey through the history of tattoo, learn how it flourished on other continents, but passed Europe by, and was then enthusiastically reintroduced. Along the way, we'll meet several royals from history who were secretly tatted up! King Edward VII of the UK King George V of the UK Grand Duke Alexis of Russia Alfonso XIII of Spain Frederik IX of Denmark Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany King Oscar II of Sweden King Ferdinand I of Romania King George II of Greece Crown Prince Rudolph of Austria King Alexander of Yugoslavia Empress Elisabeth of Austria Princess Marie of Orléans Join me every Tuesday when I'm Spilling the Tea on History!

Today, a look at equity markets that remain hopeful as key US-Iran talks kick off today in Islamabad, Pakistan. Even so, some big software names were under fresh heavy pressure as Anthropic's latest model release carves a path of devastation across the software universe. Elsewhere, we continue to highlight the importance of spot versus future prices for oil, check in on the status of the USD and JPY and much more. Today's pod is hosted by Saxo Global Head of Macro Strategy John J. Hardy. Links Let's hope he is wrong but Brent Johnson is concerned that food prices will see enormous impacts due to the disruptions of fertilizer flows from the Middle East, even if shipments were to resume tomorrow. The first portion of his paid substack is available for free. Stratechery does an excellent job putting Anthropic's latest Mythos release into perspective and has an older piece that it refers back to on "Anthropic and alignment" that discusses what is at stake for any leading edge AI company and its relationship with the sovereign. Finally, you can read the latest grand Craig Tindale thought piece on the geostrategic positioning of the US and why it is doing what it is doing. He penned another piece on his substack that also provides a compelling framework for why the US is behaving as it is, that its position "rhymes" historically with that of Imperial Japan after the US cut off oil and About twice per week, you will also find links discussed on the podcast and a chart-of-the-day over at the John J.

Janice and Rudyard believe this war was a strategic defeat for the U.S. with Iran now in control of a chokepoint through which 25% of the world's energy flows. Is this the end of freedom of navigation in international waters? Iran is proposing a toll for passing through the Strait of Hormuz using cryptocurrency which could erode an important U.S. strategic chokepoint: the dollar's role as the world's reserve currency. Meanwhile America's major allies - NATO members, Asian countries and the Gulf States - have lost confidence in America's ability to protect them. How will China take advantage of America's strategic blunder? Can J.D. Vance use this conflict to advance his own political ambitions? And will the U.S. make serious concessions to Iran about tolls, sanctions, and enriched uranium? This week, geopolitics shifted beneath our feet—and it may mark the start of America’s decline.

8. Election night 1936 resulted in a historic landslide victory for Franklin D. Roosevelt, defying the predictions of the *Literary Digest* straw poll. Roosevelt carried 46 of 48 states and secured a massive mandate in both houses of Congress. The victory signaled a fundamental political realignment, as FDR captured 104 of the nation's 106 major cities, driven by the coming-of-age of immigrant populations. This sweep solidified the modern Democratic coalition, uniting urban centers, organized labor, and minority voters. The triumph transformed the party into a national powerhouse for decades to come.
