It is not at all surprising that the bankers persuaded Trump to nominate a new Fed Chair considerably more hawkish than Jerome Powell.

Trump has always been slavishly impressionable when dealing with such people.

Of course, Greenspan was also a hawk before he became Fed Chair. https://t.co/d08mABCd19

CENTCOM Force Posture Update — 2026-01-30

⚓️ Carrier Strike Group 3 ⚓️

CSG-3 (USS Abraham Lincoln CVN-72) has reportedly moved into the blue waters of the Arabian Sea, putting considerably more distance between itself and Iranian anti-ship missiles. Little surprise here. This is the same position the USS Fraidy Abe assumed during its last deployment to the region in late 2024. (See the full story here: https://x.com/imetatronink/status/1999676851263013072?s=20)

3 Arleigh Burke-class destroyers accompany the carrier. (96 Tomahawk total missiles)

There are now 5 additional destroyers, 2 allegedly in the Persian Gulf (those guys are playing with fire), 2 in the eastern Mediterranean, 1 in the Red Sea. (160 total Tomahawk missiles)

There is also assumed to be 1 Ohio-class missile submarine. (154 total Tomahawk missiles)

There are also rumors that 1 Virginia-class attack submarine is in the region. (12 total Tomahawk missiles)

Total Tomahawk missiles: 422 (Tomahawk estimates assume a standard load-out of 32 TLAMs per destroyer.)

I would still characterize this as a relatively modest array of naval power — especially given the USS Fraidy Abe has now apparently distanced itself from potential Iranian anti-ship fire.

I find it very unlikely the Fraidy Abe will launch carrier-based airstrikes into Iran from such a distant stand-off position. In my view, CSG-3’s movements in the past several days strongly confirm my longstanding thesis that carriers are obsolete relics of a bygone era.

Fact is, the Yemeni proved that thesis in 2024-2025.

On the other hand, US air assets have been considerably augmented in recent days. More tankers, more strike aircraft (including at least one F-35A squadron), more SEAD aircraft (E/A-18 Growlers).

No credible indication of strategic bomber assets (B-2, B-52, B-1B). But they could appear with relatively short notice.

It also appears that the US has transferred pretty much all its available THAAD and Patriot systems to the region. They’re obviously trying to prepare as best they can for an Iranian counterstrike — although both THAAD and Patriot had abysmal success during the 12-Day War, and both the US and Israel effectively exhausted their stockpiles of interceptors, which was the primary motivation for them begging Iran for a ceasefire.

So that’s pretty much where we stand at this point.

“Negotiations” between the US and Iran have completely broken down — no surprise there, since the US is effectively demanding that Iran prostrate itself and submit to imperial vassalage.

I figure the fireworks could start as soon as tonight, but it’s also possible that the whole thing gets called off at the last moment.

Why would they call it off at the last moment? Because the whole thing is nucking futs.

Sure, I understand that virtually everyone around the world believes the empire can go anywhere it chooses and do anything it wants against any country on the planet — and that “third-world Iran” poses no credible threat to US military awesomeness.

But I remain convinced the US attacking Iran is an extremely high risk undertaking.

They want to give the AI demons autonomous fire control.  Wow.

Seems like one of those issues that should greatly concern everyone regardless of their politics. pic.twitter.com/zgHBttE3Jl
