i On our radar this week… © Clay Jones – claytoonz.substack.com In the last week, the list of Donald Trump's broken campaign promises was seemingly endless: beginning with starting a Middle East War and increasing gas prices to go up 60-cents-a-gallon (with the prospect of Four Dollar per gallons looming … maybe even more). The “I will end inflation” guy is now looking at inflation headed in the wrong direction. The man who promised to create manufacturing jobs has given way to the reality of manufacturing job losses. Promises of draining the swamp have taken a multi-billion-dollar detour into the Trump family bank accounts. The long-ago pledge to balance the budget and pay off the national debt have been transformed into record-setting deficits in order to cut taxes for the yachts-and-private-jets crowd. And the promise to release the Epstein Files … well, we all know how that's going. Also this week: We have the tenth special election flip from Republican to Democrat – this time in New Hampshire … as the Trump Train Wreck barrels down the tracks with his polling numbers hitting a new all-time low. His latest political Hail Mary is the SAVE Act which would take away the right to vote from untold hundreds-of-thousands. But his demands are falling on deaf ears on Capitol Hill, with Senate Majority Leader John Thune telling him it ain't gonna happen.  The Trump family has, of course, figured out how to make money from the war. Sonny and Fredo, a.k.a. Don Jr. and Eric, are backing a new drone company that is vying to meet fresh demand from the Pentagon and fill a hole left by the administration's ban on new Chinese drones in the U.S.   Clay Jones – claytoonz.substack.com Trump says the U.S. won the war in the first hour. But they still managed to spend 11-billion dollars after we supposedly had won…and the bombing continues.  It looks like the Gordie Howe Bridge will be putting the Maroun Family into the penalty box. Tolls to cross the not-yet-open bridge will be less than half the fees at the competing Ambassador Bridge for both passenger vehicles and commercial trucks, setting in motion a forthcoming toll war between the two Detroit River crossings. Michigan Democrats are using the Bridge controversy to highlight the financial ties between the Maroun family and GOP Senate candidate Mike Rogers.  In Michigan, Republican candidates for Governor are all calling for pretty much closing most of state government by repealing the income tax, property taxes, or both. Apparently they think things like State Police, prisons, public health, public parks, food safety inspections, mental health and our universities can all be funded with the sales tax, sin taxes, unclaimed bottle deposits, the lottery and the tooth fairy.The state Senate has passed bipartisan legislation to help people deal with medical debt. But its fate is uncertain in the House, where Speaker Matt Hall has very different ideas for addressing medical debt through more transparency in pricing. Petitions have been filed with the state to force a vote in November on a deceptive proposal which, on its face, prohibits non-citizens from voting in Michigan … something that is already a part of state law. Left unstated by the backers are the proposal's impact on voting rights. A longtime chronicler of state government has taken a look behind the proposal of “Americans for Citizens Only Voting.” John Lindstrom has covered state government over the last four decades. Since retiring as publisher of the highly regarded Gongwer Michigan report, he's been a columnist for the Detroit Free Press.

Overnight, 200 rockets were fired at Israel from Lebanon. Hezbollah, which many believed had been neutered, is back.  This week, Yonit and Jonathan take stock of a war that is growing, not winding down. They're joined by General David Petraeus — former CIA Director, commander of coalition forces in Iraq and Afghanistan, and one of the most clear-eyed voices on American military strategy. Petraeus breaks down what the US and Israel have actually achieved so far: missile launches are down over 90%, air defenses have been dismantled, and over 6,000 targets hit. But the new Khamenei? "We wanted a Delcy Rodriguez," he says. "We got a young Kim Jong-un." And he's blunt about what comes next: Iran's a million men under arms, and nobody has a clean exit. Then: a very different conversation. Jonathan talks to novelist and broadcaster Naomi Alderman about why she thinks Marty Supreme is the most intensely Jewish movie she's ever seen.  Plus: the Mensch and Chutzpah awards return.

France's balancing act in the Middle East war. Convincing women to run in France's local elections. And the French village where Iran's first supreme leader spent his last months in exile. France has deployed navy vessels to the Mediterranean and Red Sea to protect countries attacked by Iran in retaliation for strikes by the United States and Israel. It says it is staying out of the war, maintaining a "strictly defensive" stance to support its allies and protect its interests in the region. Defence expert Guillaume Lagane, who teaches international relations at Sciences Po Paris, examines France's position and the delicate balancing act it is pursuing. (Listen @2'45'') France heads to the polls on 15 and 22 March to elect its mayors and town councillors. We already know that half of the councillors will be women, after a 2025 law imposed gender-balanced lists in every one of France's nearly 35,000 communes. Putting forward an equal number of male and female candidates can be challenging in a village like Fresnes-lès-Montauban in northern France, where non-profit Elles Aussi is helping encourage women to run. Julia Mouzon, founder of the Elues Locales network that supports and promotes women in politics, talks about the collective achievement of getting gender parity on electoral lists – and why there are still so few female mayors. (Listen @18'25'') The small town in France where Iran's first supreme leader, Ruhollah Khomeini, spent his last months in exile, preparing his return to Iran at the height of the 1979 revolution.

Today on Uncommon Sense, we're tackling the war with Iran that President Donald Trump has pulled the United States into and why I believe Americans should be questioning it.I'll break down why this conflict is happening, why many conservatives who usually support Trump are uneasy about it, and why voices like Charlie Kirk also warned against the United States being dragged into another Middle Eastern war.We'll talk about the geopolitical forces behind this conflict, including the role of Benjamin Netanyahu and the long-discussed concept of “Greater Israel”—the idea of expanding Israel's regional dominance and influence.Is this really about American security?Or are we once again risking American lives, money, and stability for foreign interests and endless wars overseas?Today I'm breaking down the politics, the narratives, and why I believe America should be extremely cautious about where this conflict is heading, because it is most likely (unfortunately) the start of WWIII.--https://www.bible.com/

Tips for travelers making spring, summer plans With spring break here and the peak summer travel season approaching, a whopping 90% or more of Americans say they plan to travel for vacation this year. But travel planning is being complicated by uncertainty due to several factors including current global instability due to the war in the Middle East.That conflict has led to a spike in oil prices impacting flight fares and gas prices. The ongoing partial government shutdown has also led to longer wait times for security lines as the Transportation Security Administration deals with staffing shortages. TSA workers are currently being asked to work without pay. Links mentioned in the discussion State Dept.

Stephen Grootes speaks to Feroz Basa, Head of Global Emerging Markets at Sanlam Investments, about the sharp surge in global oil prices as the expanding Middle East conflict disrupts supply and shipping routes. Brent crude briefly spiked above $119 a barrel, its highest level since 2022 as production cuts, damaged infrastructure and the effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz tightened global energy markets. In other interviews, Mpact CEO Bruce Strong talks about the group’s solid revenue growth in 2025, the impact of major investments like the Mkhondo mill upgrade, the pressures facing both the paper and plastics businesses, and how Mpact plans to drive stronger earnings, cash generation and resilience in the face of South Africa’s tough economic outlook for 2026.

Crude oil prices pulled back sharply after brushing $120 a barrel earlier on Monday. After hovering around $100 for most of the day, both Brent and WTI benchmarks reversed course following comments from Donald Trump suggesting the US-Israeli war with Iran could soon come to an end. As Gulf countries began cutting production amid a rapid decrease in available storage space, consumers have already started seeing fuel prices rise.

Week 10 of 2026 brings major geopolitical disruption to the global shipping and ship recycling markets as escalating conflict in the Middle East sends shockwaves through energy markets, trade routes, and demolition pricing across the Indian Subcontinent. Following the closure of the Strait of Hormuz and rising regional instability, oil prices surged sharply above USD 110 per barrel, driving higher operating costs across global shipping. War risk premiums, vessel rerouting, and energy price volatility are beginning to influence ship recycling sentiment across key demolition destinations, including Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, and Turkey. In this episode, Ingrid and Henning analyze how geopolitical tensions, fuel market volatility, steel price movements, and currency fluctuations are shaping buyer behavior and demolition pricing across the global ship recycling industry. Despite increasing uncertainty, the recycling markets remain disciplined, with buyers maintaining cautious bidding strategies and limited fresh tonnage entering the market. Key Market Developments This Week • Escalating Middle East conflict impacting global shipping routes and energy markets • Strait of Hormuz disruption driving sharp oil price increases • Rising vessel operating costs and insurance premiums • Bangladesh maintaining top demolition pricing position • India steel plate prices jumping nearly USD 28 per ton amid supply concerns • Pakistan maintaining competitive pricing with stable steel fundamentals • Turkey facing regulatory developments following EU yard certification changes • No reported demolition sales this week as buyers remain cautious Bangladesh continues to lead pricing levels across most vessel categories, while India shows improving steel fundamentals and Pakistan remains competitively positioned for regional tonnage. Turkey continues to trail pricing levels amid softer European scrap demand. The broader tone of the market remains cautious but stable. While geopolitical instability is creating short-term disruption across global shipping markets, longer-term implications may eventually influence vessel supply into the recycling sector. This episode provides strategic insights into demolition pricing trends, steel market movements, subcontinent recycling fundamentals, and the macroeconomic forces influencing ship recycling markets in 2026. For shipowners, brokers, cash buyers, recycling yards, and maritime investors, this weekly update provides essential intelligence on the evolving global ship recycling landscape.

FULL STREAM### March 3: European Instability and Widening Conflict (5)1638 PERSIAHeadline: Europe Faces Energy Panic as Middle East War Intensifies(6)Summary: On the second day of the conflict, the focus shifts to Europe's lack of readiness for the resulting 50% spike in natural gas prices and rising inflation. Judy Dempsey highlights the "discombobulated" leadership within the EU and NATO as they struggle to coordinate a response. While French President Macron proposes a shared nuclear umbrella, German Chancellor Scholz meets with President Trump to seek clarity on war aims. Domestically, US polls indicate a lack of public support for the war, with only 27% of voters favoring the intervention. The Afghanistan-Pakistanconflict remains intense as Pakistan targets abandoned US equipment and militant camps.

The guest host for today's show is Brad Bannon. Brad runs Bannon Communications Research, a polling, message development and media firm which helps labor unions, progressive issue groups and Democratic candidates win public affairs and political campaigns. His show, 'Deadline D.C. with Brad Bannon,' airs every Monday from 3-4pm ET. Brad is first joined by CNN Military Analyst Col. Cedric Leighton (USAF-Ret.). The two discuss the military and foreign policy aspects of the Trump administration's airstrikes against Iran, the decision to kill their leader, whether the President had the authority to start this war despite being unprovoked, and more. Then, Sarah Jones, Editor-in-Chief of PoliticusUSA, is our special guest for the second half of the show. She and Brad cover the domestic repercussions of the new U.S. war with Iran, including rising gas prices, which experts say could surge to $4 dollars per gallon. Sarah also breaks down the Paramount purchase of Warner Bros., which includes CNN, and the dangers of media consolidation. This is the same group that recently blocked Stephen Colbert's interview with Democratic politician James Talarico.  Paramount was in position to do this because they recently acquired CBS News, the network that airs Colbert's show, in a recent merger deal. Col. Cedric Leighton is the Founder and President of Cedric Leighton Associates, a strategic risk and leadership consultancy serving global companies and organizations. He founded the company in 2010, after serving in the US Air Force for 27 years as an Intelligence Officer and attaining the rank of Colonel.

As Middle East War Escalates, Trump's Health & Leadership Are Under Scrutiny The conflict in the Middle East continues to expand as U.S. and allied strikes against Iranian facilities draw retaliation and regional escalation. Smoke and violence have been reported across multiple fronts, and world markets are rattled by rising oil and geopolitical instability.  Meanwhile, President Donald Trump — now 79 — has been photographed with a visible skin rash and irritation on his neck during public events, as well as past episodes of bruising and leg swelling attributed by officials to chronic venous insufficiency and routine treatments. Critics are questioning whether his physical condition and public appearances reflect weakening leadership at a moment of global tension.  With no clear end in sight to the conflict and U.S. involvement deepening, many Americans are asking: Is this a strategic campaign or an open-ended war? What will the long-term costs be — economically, politically, and for global stability? And who will hold leaders accountable? This episode breaks down the war's expansion, Trump's handling of events at home and abroad, and what it means for the future of American diplomacy.

The bombing campaign in Iran has drawn in other countries. The U.S. and Israel are targeting Iran, but nations including UAE, Kuwait, Qatar and Saudi Arabia are coming under fire from Tehran. And Lebanon's Hezbollah is also playing a role — firing rockets at Israel, and drawing Israeli airstrikes. U.S. president Donald Trump says operations are likely to last four or five weeks. But, he hasn't ruled out hostilities lasting “far longer.”We have reports from the region, with correspondents on the ground in Amman, Jerusalem, and Washington.And: The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps is a designated terrorist organization in Canada. So why do so many Iranians here say they are being threatened by its members?Also: As of January, Ozempic is no longer protected by an exclusivity patent in Canada. That means other companies can make generics here. We look at how that process is going.Plus: Public service cuts in Nova Scotia, and more.

COUNTDOWN BULLETIN PODCAST FEB. 28 2026: WAR WITH IRAN (2:30) BULLETIN: While you were sleeping Trump illegally and unconstitutionally declared war on Iran, began to bomb its cities including Teheran and its parliament and its security council and its military targets and its schools and its ordinary people – and its militia allies in neighboring Iraq. Israel has joined in the assault. To quote Marty Sheen as the president in The Dead Zone: the missiles are flying, hallelujah hallelujah. To quote Trump to President Zelensky: you are playing with World War 3. Trump has called it a war, USED the term “war” repeatedly, and inanely told Iranians to stay in their homes, which this country is bombing. It is war, he is calling it war, and yet he has sought no congressional approval and Trump is thus acting as a dictator – a military dictator – at this moment. Israel has joined the military action, dubbed "Operation Epic Fury" - because "Operation Epstein Distraction" didn't sound poetic enough And apparently the FIFA Peace Prize just doesn’t mean anything any more. Novel thought: You know what would be right and just? We should have our new war in Iran fought by our new patriotic triumphant flag-waving unbeatable brave American heroes who so inspired us at the State of the Union: The Olympic winning U.S. Hockey Team!
