Three Ring Circuit Breaker
June 18, 2026
John Titus and Catherine Austin Fitts argue the Iran conflict can be “lost” on three circuit breakers—military, energy, or financial—and contend the U.S. effectively lost due to inflation, energy constraints, and financial pressure rather than battlefield outcomes. They discuss an unreleased U.S.–Iran memorandum of understanding that reportedly requires halting Israel’s bombing of Lebanon, reopening the Strait of Hormuz, ending blockades, and major money flows to Iran, alongside unfreezing funds. They cite precision Iranian strikes on U.S. Gulf bases and expensive air-defense systems, and report the UAE paid Iran billions to stop attacks, raising questions about U.S. basing. They connect war-driven energy shortages to dangerously low commercial oil stocks at Cushing, rising producer prices, and looming rate pressures, then pivot to domestic control-grid issues including internet censorship bills, AI/crypto lobbying, data-center impacts, and stablecoin rulemaking.
