1/ 🚨 TRUMP ENDS A 40-YEAR WAR.

Armenia 🇦🇲 + Azerbaijan 🇦🇿 — enemies since the 1980s — will sign a U.S.-brokered peace deal at the White House tomorrow.

Bilateral economic agreements, too.

No endless conflict. No “forever war.”

Commerce not chaos.

THREAD🧵 Image
2/ Trump announced the Historic Peace Summit on Truth Social:

“Many Leaders have tried to end the War, with no success, until now.”

He’ll host Armenian PM Nikol Pashinyan + Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev for the signing. Image
3/ The conflict goes back to the late ’80s over Nagorno-Karabakh.

Thousands dead.

Two full-scale wars since the Soviet collapse in 1991.

Dozens of failed peace attempts by past U.S., Russian, & European leaders. Image
4/ Trump’s envoy, Steve Witkoff, worked for months behind the scenes — visiting the region in March — to bring both sides to the table.

When does this man sleep???

Now?

✅ Full peace agreement
✅ U.S.-Armenia economic pact
✅ U.S.-Azerbaijan economic pact Image
5/ And this is classic Trump "Commerce Not Chaos".

The South Caucasus is a strategic energy corridor linking Europe, Turkey, Iran, & Russia — packed with oil & gas pipelines.

Peace strengthens U.S. allies, weakens enemies, & opens huge trade potential.

6/ Trump praised the “courageous Leaders” for doing “the right thing for the Great People of Armenia and Azerbaijan.”

Past presidents talked.

Trump delivers. Image
7/ And this isn’t isolated:

✅ Israel-Iran
✅ India–Pakistan
✅ Rwanda–DR Congo
✅ Cambodia–Thailand
✅ Serbia-Kosovo
✅ Egypt-Ethiopia

Trump is stacking up foreign policy wins — stopping wars, not starting them. Image
8/ Even Putin is feeling the pressure.

Trump gave Moscow 10–12 days to end the Ukraine war or face crushing new sanctions.

The Kremlin now says it will meet with him “in the coming days.”

9/ The Enemedia will downplay this. Don’t let them.

This is the SIXTH major international peace breakthrough in months — and they just keep coming.

Remember how many times Democrats told us when they're in power "the adults are in charge"?

How'd that work out? 🇺🇸 Image

🚨 TRUMP EXEMPTS GOLD FROM TARIFFS

Last week, confusion over tariffs sent gold prices to a record $3,534.

Traders feared gold tariffs would slam the bullion market.

But today, Trump ended the panic with 4 words:
“Gold will not be Tariffed!”

🧵👇
2/ The scare started when a U.S. Customs ruling suggested imported gold bars could face country-specific tariffs — up to 39% for Switzerland, the world’s refining hub.

That would have wrecked global gold supply chains overnight. Image
3/ The result?

📈 Gold futures hit $3,534.10, a record.
📈 Spot gold jumped above $3,390.
📈 The premium between U.S. futures & global prices exploded to $100+.

Markets feared the U.S. might break the gold trade. Image

🚨 HISTORIC SHIFT IN SYRIA:

President Trump just did what 3 presidents promised but never delivered—he ended most U.S. sanctions on Syria.

Now America is sitting down with Syria to plan reconstruction—and the geopolitics AND geoeconomics are huge. 🧵 Image
2/ Tomorrow, U.S., Jordanian, and Syrian officials will meet in Amman to discuss rebuilding Syria—a war-torn nation devastated by civil war since 2011.

The goals: security, stability, sovereignty, and prosperity.

As Trump put it, "commerce not chaos".

rodmartin.org/p/commerce-not…
3/ Syria’s new leaders—installed after the ouster of Bashar al-Assad in Dec. 2024—has already struck $14B in deals with global companies:

• $4B new Damascus airport
• $2B public transit overhaul
• $60M new shopping mall

And that’s just the start. But Syria needs EVERYTHING. Image

🚨 CONGRESS JUST KILLED THE RULES THAT MADE CARS UGLY 🚗💥

For 50 years, D.C. fuel-economy mandates forced automakers into cookie-cutter designs—turning every SUV and crossover into the same boring blob.

Now, those rules are GONE.

It’s time to Make Cars Beautiful Again. 🧵👇 Image
2/ The culprit? Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards, born in 1975 after the oil embargo.

They didn’t just push fuel efficiency—they dictated design.

Every angle, height, and slope of your car was regulated in Washington. Image
3/ Here’s the trick Congress just pulled:

You can’t repeal CAFE in a budget bill.

So in July’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act, Section 40006 quietly eliminated the civil penalty for breaking CAFE.

No penalty = no enforcement.

CAFE is dead.

🚨 THE SMALL TOWNS PAYING PEOPLE THOUSANDS TO MOVE IN 🚨

Across America, rural communities are paying people thousands to move in.

Cash. Concert tickets. Golf memberships.

A pandemic experiment is now a national movement — and it’s working. 🧵👇 Image
2/ It started during COVID: millions went remote.

10% of America’s workforce still works from anywhere.

Heartland towns saw their chance to reverse decades of brain drain — and they’re winning back families one $5,000 check at a time. Image
3/ Example: Noblesville, IN.

Pays $5,000 + coworking space + golf + concert tickets.

Result: 102 remote workers moved since 2022, bringing 253 new residents.

Average salary: $80K.
Projected 5-year impact: $37.6M.

Retention rate: 90%. Image

🚨 TRUMP GETS HIS BORDER WALL BACK 🚨

Biden sold $350 MILLION of unused Trump border wall materials for pennies on the dollar.

Now, in a stunning reversal, the auctioneer is sending them BACK to the feds — to finish the wall.

This is a wild story. 🧵👇 Image
2/ When Biden took office, his first move was to stop Trump’s wall.

He called it “not a serious policy solution” — then sold the materials off dirt-cheap, in some cases for $1 a panel.

Taxpayers ate the loss. Image
3/ The waste was massive:

• Biden stopped construction
• Up to $350M in materials just sitting in the desert
• $130,000 PER DAY to guard them
• Sold for pennies — one batch of 729 steel beams went for $154,200

It was an insult to taxpayers and border security. Image

🚨 BOMBSHELL: DOJ Targets Schiff & Letitia James 🚨

Attorney General Pam Bondi just appointed a special prosecutor to investigate Sen. Adam Schiff & NY AG Letitia James for mortgage, bank & wire fraud — crimes carrying up to 30 years in prison.

I told you they meant it. 🧵 Image
2/ Bondi tapped former acting U.S. Attorney @EagleEdMartin to lead the cases.

“For months DOJ & the FBI have been working on these,” Martin says.

“My job is to stick the landing.”

Translation: they think they can get convictions — and they’re going for it. Image
@EagleEdMartin 3/ Adam Schiff:

One of the loudest Trump-Russia hoaxers.

Now accused of over a decade of mortgage fraud — allegedly claiming his Maryland home was his “primary residence” from 2009–2020 to score cheaper loans… while still living in California. Image
