High energy costs are acting as a global wrecking ball, tanking incumbent approval ratings and setting the stage for a massive domestic supply chain failure. 0:00 - The Southwest Airlines Warning Nobody Caught 2:00 - The $100 Oil Squeeze & Europe's De-industrialization 5:00 - Why Fertilizer Just Spiked 46% (The Agriculture Shock) 7:30 - Global Trade is Fracturing (US, China & CUSMA) 9:30 - How This Breaks Domestic Politics & Approval Ratings 11:30 - The Biofuel Bottleneck (What Breaks Next) #Macroeconomics #Geopolitics #Economy2026 #SupplyChainCrisis #SouthwestAirlines #EnergyCrisis #Inflation #Commodities #AgricultureNews #OilPrices #GlobalTrade #CUSMA #PoliticalEconomy #FertilizerShortage #EconomicCollapse
