America just attacked everyone
US strikes on Iran are dragging on and spreading pain to markets, drivers, and Trump's own poll numbers — bad news for the economy and most Americans.
- Oil topped $100 for the first time since May as the Iran fighting drags into its 13th straight night, pushing gas up around $4 a gallon.
- Iran rejected a ceasefire offer Trump sent through Iraq, and he's now threatening to hit Iran's infrastructure and seize Iranian money to pay for ship damage.
- Trump slapped new tariffs on over 60 countries over forced labor, and Americans have turned hard against them — opposition has climbed to 63%.
- Canada's Carney vowed to fight back, showing how Trump's trade and military moves are uniting other countries against him.
- Cuts to US intelligence staff and low morale raise doubts about whether strikes are even hitting the right targets.
Outlook: With no ceasefire in sight and troops and medics moving toward the Middle East, expect higher oil and gas, more market weakness, and a deeper standoff with Iran.
