The Economic Collapse

We certainly have entered uncharted territory. When a vicious predator is backed into a corner, it will do whatever it can to survive. That makes Iran more dangerous than ever at this moment. The Iranians are making all sorts of crazy threats, and I am convinced that they fully intend to make good on them. Whether they are actually able to do so is another matter. But without a doubt we need to be taking their threats seriously, and that includes their threat to kill President Trump… (Read More...)

Has there ever been a social media post more important than the one that President Trump just made?  I believe that it would be very difficult to overstate the significance of what we have just witnessed.  Now that Trump has decided to publicly back the revolution in Iran, it is either regime change or bust.  And by publicly declaring that the U.S. is going to help the protesters, he has made it very clear that there will be a military showdown with the Iranians.  War is here, and we are going to witness a staggering amount of death and destruction.

The headline of this article is not a misprint.  The reason why “affordability” has become the number one issue for U.S. voters is because most of the population is being absolutely crushed by the rising cost of living.  Just look at how much you are paying for electricity compared to five years ago.  And just look at how much you are paying for food compared to five years ago.  Housing costs have risen to absurd heights, property taxes have become absolutely insane in many areas of the country, and health insurance premiums have more than doubled for millions of Americans.  It isn’t just a coincidence that so many people are bitterly complaining about the cost of living these days.  The truth is that most of the country is experiencing very real pain.

The fall of the tyrannical regime in Iran would be one of the most important geopolitical stories of the past 50 years and would totally transform the entire Middle East.  But Ayatollah Khamenei and his minions will not go down without a fight.  Several days ago, I warned that the reason why the regime in Iran had shut down Internet access was because it was planning to use extreme violence against the protesters.  Of course that is precisely what has transpired.  President Trump told Iran what the U.S. would do if that happened, and now we have learned that he is being briefed on military options.  When Trump hits Iran, the Iranians will strike back by targeting U.S. bases and Israeli cities.  Once Iranian missiles are fired at Israeli cities, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will not hesitate to unleash the full force of the IDF on the Iranians.

The left wants to get millions of activists into the streets during the months ahead, and just like last time around they are hoping that an incident in Minnesota will be the spark.  Meanwhile, ICE has initiated a “wartime recruitment” strategy and is planning to meet any protests head on.  Both sides absolutely hate one another, and we have already seen so many incidents of violence.  This is such a tragedy, because none of us should want to see Americans fighting against Americans.  Unfortunately, I am convinced that the civil unrest that we are witnessing will greatly escalate as 2026 rolls along.

After months of submitting resumes and filling out applications, many unemployed Americans have given in to despair.  Dozens of large companies all over the nation have been conducting mass layoffs, and the competition for any good jobs that do happen to be available has become extremely intense.  But if you have not lost your source of income, things may still seem fairly normal to you and you may be wondering what all of the fuss is about.  That is why I am calling this “the musical chairs economy”.  If you have been able to hold on to a chair each time the music stops playing, that is a good thing.  But you should also realize that there are millions of Americans that have been forced out of the game and are absolutely desperate to get back in.

If we wanted to make Russian President Vladimir Putin and his minions extremely angry, we have certainly accomplished that task. When I learned that the U.S. had seized an oil tanker that was displaying a Russian flag and that was being protected by Russian warships, I was absolutely stunned. I have been relentlessly warning that being extremely aggressive with the Russians will backfire severely. If we truly want peace with the Russians, diplomacy is the only solution. Punching the Russians in the face won’t work, and if we continue to go down this path it could easily lead to the unthinkable. (Read More...)

The rules of the game have changed. At one time, western bankers could easily pull a few strings and keep the global price of silver within an acceptable range. But now financial centers in Asia are becoming more dominant, and supplies of physical silver are becoming extremely tight. As a result, western bankers are no longer able to exert the same level of control. (Read More...)
