The US government has racked up $12 trillion in debt over the past four years. What will you do when it’s racking up $12 trillion every four months? Because that’s where we’re headed. Meanwhile, global financial conditions are as easy as they’ve ever been. What’s the emergency you ask? Good question…

What if the Fed doesn’t rescue the next downturn? What if the resulting rout will be used to trigger The Great Taking machinery which will then provide the cover for the rapid adoption of CBDCs? Germany’s stock market powering to illogical new highs tells us something is ‘off’ and we’re trying to figure out what.

More than two months after the first assassination attempt against trump we still don’t know the answers to shockingly basic questions.

The “apolitical” Fed cut rates by an emergency amount just 6 weeks before a major and contentious election thereby rewarding incumbents. As always, they did this even though it will reward existing asset owners and punish the young who are starting out in life. It’s just who they are, to their bones.

The second Trump assassination attempt is proving to be as revealing and instructive as the first one.  For some reason it’s HARD to protect Trump properly. The DNC is responsible for fanning the social flames that have brought us to these attempts, but they seem unable to do much more than DARVO and (perversely) blame Trump.Click Here for Part 2

This is the audio from my livecast regarding the second Trump assassination attempt.

Would it be foolish to think ‘this time is different?’ Of course! It’s never different. There has to be a balance between claims on the economy and the real economy’s outputs. Today those are historically stretched beyond recovery. It’s time to plant a garden – or start a farm!

Paul and I discuss a few of the major economic topics that were evaded and avoided during the Trump-Harris debate. We deserve a discussion and some answers because of the gravity of the situation.

Do you pay property taxes? Do you rent? In either case you’ve been ripped off by local taxing authorities who have been running a widespread but illegal operation that has systematically overvalued properties for the purpose of fraudulently collecting higher taxes. Their motivation? Their paychecks, presumably, but that’s just a guess. It could be more than that.Click Here for Part 2

Markets are feeling 'toppy' as currencies, oil, gold, and stocks are all in flux. The podcast dives into the potential for rising oil prices and the complexity of financial interventions. Concerns about inflation and consumer debt echo past downturns, while investment strategies urge data-driven decisions rather than emotional reactions. Risks surrounding municipal bonds are discussed, especially in financial-volatile states. The relationship between interest rates and market dynamics is unraveled, spotlighting how rate cuts may not be the solution to deeper economic challenges.
