The first week of Operation Epic Fury reportedly cost the U.S. roughly $6 billion, with $4 billion of that going to munitions and interceptors alone.
That burn rate is so alarming that the administration is privately discussing invoking the Defense Production Act to force manufacturers to accelerate weapons production.
Trump publicly says the U.S. has "unlimited" ammunition.
Behind closed doors, his own officials are briefing Congress about stockpile concerns and emergency measures.
For context, the entire annual U.S. military aid package to Ukraine is $3.9 billion.
America just spent more than that in seven days defending bases and shooting down Shahed drones that cost less than a used Honda Civic.
Trump says this war could last months.
At $6 billion a week, that's a quarter trillion dollars before summer.
And that doesn't account for the economic damage from $90 oil, Gulf shipping disruptions, and crashed Asian markets...

CHINA’S CALCULATED MOVE
A massive shift is occurring: Larry Johnson argues that China sees no future with a failing West and is pivoting toward the Global South.
With total control over the energy needed for the AI revolution, China doesn't need a kinetic war to win.
As the West exhausts itself in Iran, Beijing is watching the U.S. military reach its limits.

Finance-related job openings are collapsing:
Finance and insurance job openings fell -117,000 in December, to 134,000, the lowest level since February 2012.
Available vacancies in these sectors have dropped -410,000, or -75%, since the 2022 peak.
Openings are now even lower than at the 2001 recession bottom.
By comparison, the largest monthly decline during the 2008 Financial Crisis was -125,000.
As a result, the finance and insurance job openings rate fell to 1.9%, meaning fewer than 2 out of every 100 jobs in the sector are currently vacant, the lowest since February 2010.
Excluding the 2009-2010 lows, this is the lowest rate recorded this century.
The finance industry is bracing for more layoffs.

I am on telegram and I have an Indian avatar and watch them work through lists and rank us for take down.
When they do they celebrate and post the takedowns for all to see.
They even help each other with how to get us to say stuff that will allow them to ban us. Its not a few..its tens of thousands.
To their credit Telegram does take down the public ones but the invite only ones are more difficult.
Team Banner.

Iran’s ruling clerics have reportedly agreed on who replaces Khamenei.
According to Assembly of Experts member Ayatollah Mirbaqeri, the “majority consensus” is already locked in.
But there are still “some obstacles,” one of which is whether the decision has to be made in an official in-person vote.
Given Israel’s habit of blowing up every high-level meeting the regime holds, this might be the first time Iran picks a Supreme Leader over Zoom.
