As bombs fell over Tehran and Tel Aviv, Bannon’s War Room podcast became a round-the-clock antiwar room. Meanwhile, Fox News filled block after block with fanfare for the Israeli offensive and fearmongering over the Iranian nuclear threat. (“The world cannot experience another Holocaust,” intoned Sean Hannity.)

“It’s the battle of the Murdoch empire versus the podcast bros,” said the former administration official. “Whoever wins determines matters of war and peace. I wish it were different, but that’s the reality.” Whereas Fox News continues to provide a morphine drip of anti-Iran bellicosity to the older GOP cohort, the earbuds of junior Republican staffers are tuned into anti-interventionist — and increasingly Israel-skeptical — content from Carlson, Bannon, Kirk, and even the pipsqueak antisemite Nick Fuentes.

As of Tuesday, the national average for a gallon of gas in the U.S. was $3.21, up roughly 10 cents from two weeks ago, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration.

The spike was largely driven by a jump in oilprices due to the Israel-Iran conflict in the Middle East, but now that both countries have agreed to a ceasefire, De Haan says he expects prices to steeply fall and then resume their “slow decline” over the course of the summer.

A senior Iranian cleric, Grand Ayatollah Naser Makarem Shirazi, issued a fatwa declaring anyone who threatens Iran's Supreme Leader, Grand Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, an "enemy of God" in a de facto call to assassinate U.S. President Donald J. Trump.

Seventy years on and China has risen to be a global powerhouse, the world’s second-biggest economy and one of two true military superpowers. And yet, as the country’s leaders in Beijing are acutely aware, the nation has not been able to overcome dozens of industrial “choke points”.

From a western standpoint, the good news is that these choke points are ultimately holding back China’s quest for independence and leave it vulnerable to US pressure in an era of trade wars and export controls.

The bad news, for the west and its companies at least, is that China is addressing these problems in a methodical and systematic manner and is using tools such as AI to advance more quickly.
