It is the seventh day of Trump II's War of Choice on Iran, a historic "fully integrated, multi-domain operation." No wonder Iran is blowing up data centers. TechGods will not be pleased.
Trump II wants to open up Iran to the West and direct where their natural resources go while using oil proceeds to buy TechGod products/services and invest in unsellable private equity underwriter (PEU) affiliates/secondary offerings.
World leaders may not be aware that showing up to any meeting with Trump II is at their peril. They risk being used, usurped and/or reduced to a prop in Trump II's irreality play.

The year 2025 was another year of magical thinking ℅ Donald Trump, a man whose mere presence in the room causes everyone else to descend to their most base level. Trump came to Washington as a president who spurned convention and embraced crypto currencies.
He rejected New Deal regulation and shamelessly encouraging greed and self-interest in a way not seen since the years following WWI. The impact on financial markets is profound and may continue for some time.Trump's military escapades are hostile takeovers of attractive targets, formerly known as sovereign countries. He's a deal maker and deal makers earn deal fees.
Trump II's usurping is ceaseless, driven by want. It's a form of resource lust. That combined with his desire to dominate means nearly everyone and everything is a potential target.
Greed is the language of PEUs and disruption the signature mark of TechGods.
Lord, shield us from the takers of the world and their violence. Soften their hearts such that they can fully rejoin the human family and fulfill what Christ taught us, to love you and to love our neighbor.
Update: TechGods hate when one of their own (a former Palantir engineer) reveals the rigged game and offers to work on behalf of the little people. They want government power and resources trained in their direction.
Jilted Synapse "bank" customers could use some of what Andreessen Horowitz is passing around. Might those Synapse account losers show up at Joe Lonsdale's Erebor Bank, the new Bank of TechGods? They'd be smart not to touch it. "Even the smallest person can change the course of the future."
