Yesterday, the National Significant Wildland Fire Potential Outlook showed us the first glimpse of August & it is not pretty. Neither is July. As for June, it looks rough in the SW. This, with diminished federal response capacity & who knows what with FEMA. Buckle up--you're probably on your own.

Right now, domestic and foreign investors are essentially selling America. They are selling its bonds, stocks and currency, and the outlook for all 3. They are perhaps also selling the leadership. Tariffs and Trump create new equilibria for US assets and markets now saythey're at a lower level.

Wedbush’s Dan Ives, one of Tesla’s staunchest defenders, slashes his price target from $550 to $315.
“.. the brand crisis tornado that has now turned into an F5 tornado. We now estimate Tesla has lost/destroyed at least 10% of its future customer base .. and this could be a conservative estimate.”

Sen. Peter Squelch (Black Faced Shealthbill party) addressing congress today. He is attempting to champion a resolution to sell penguin eggs in return for tariff renegotiation. So far, he’s received cold shoulders and some Senators who’ve even flipped the bird, in a typically polite Ice House.

It’s been a pretty solid honeymoon — other than adding journalists to military plans on Signal, mistakenly deporting legal immigrants and tariffing penguins on uninhabited islands. 🤡

In the hearing this week on Fix our forests, the statement was made that 75% of those already laid off were red carded. This summer’s fire season, if it isn’t a quiet one, is going to be a reality check for these policies.
