John Titus is an expert on money, and has been on my podcast before. His YouTube channel is superb, although it will probably get torpedoed by the thought police soon. John joined me for a conversation around the Russian sanctions and why they will tank the US dollar; the stupidity of the West; what is real money and why it matters; the importance of gold and silver; and getting off the digital grid. John’s commentary is both savage and superb….
This is a very important interview that is full of information that was new to me Margaret Flowers: You’re listening to Clearing the FOG, speaking truth to expose the forces of greed, with Margaret Flowers. And now I turn to my guest, Michael Hudson. Michael is the president of the Institute for the Study of Long-term, Economic Trends, ISLET. He’s a Wall Street financial analyst and a distinguished research professor of Economics at the University of Missouri, in Kansas City. He’s…
I don’t think this movement by Vladimir Putin can be dismissed. When Saddam Hussein and Col. Gadhaffi announced the introduction of a gold dinar they were marked for destruction. Times have changed. “Russia won’t engage in charity” “Russian President Vladimir Putin has made a public statement on video about what has taken place with binding the Ruble to Gold. In that statement, he points out that Western Nations have simply STOLEN Russia’s foreign currency reserves and Gold Bullion Reserves, and…
Zero Hedge, 23 March, 2022, With the ruble mostly stuck in sanctions limbo and trading around 100 to the dollar in recent days (an improvement from the USDRUB 140 hit on March 8), the Kremlin appears to have found a new way to prop up the Russian currency besides merely central bank interventions: make foreign customers of Russian gas demand it. During an address to the nation moments ago, Vladimir Putin said that Russia will demand that countries it…
It is known as the Petrodollar. The sale of oil worldwide has been pegged to the US Dollar since the days of Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger in the early 1970s. The status of the US dollar as the world’s reserve currency is dependent on the US-Saudi Arabia deal negotiated by Kissinger to link oil to the dollar. Today, the Petrodollar is in trouble. According to the Wall Street Journal, Saudi Arabia and China are in active discussions to price…
The American Empire self-destructs. But nobody thought that it would happen this fast by Michael Hudson posted by permission Empires often follow the course of a Greek tragedy, bringing about precisely the fate that they sought to avoid. That certainly is the case with the American Empire as it dismantles itself in not-so-slow motion. The basic assumption of economic and diplomatic forecasting is that every country will act in its own self-interest. Such reasoning is of no help in today’s…
Hal Turner writes the following Jerome Powell: “The war underscores the need for action on Digital Currency.” https://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/en/news-page/world/ukraine-march-2-2022-kherson-captured-southeast-of-entire-country-conquered UPDATE 11:47 AM EST — Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell just made a strange statement: “The war underscores the need for action on Digital Currency.” WTF? Why in the world would those two things be connected? This has “bad” written all over it! UPDATE 11:54 AM EST — Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell has REFUSED to answer when asked at a Press Conference…
This is of course speculative and I do not take Christopher Green at his word, however.. That could be compared with what Hal Turner is saying back at the end of August. Something happened that is – and history will record it as being — THE “Black Swan Event” for the United States. Saudi and Russian officials Tuesday announced the signing of military cooperation pact between the two countries. Saudi Defense Minister Khalid bin Salman announced the agreement via Twitter,…
The most important news comes in a form worthy of the Soviet Pravda and without any context. VLADIVOSTOK, Russia Sept 3 (Reuters) – Gazprom Neft (SIBN.MM), the oil arm of Russian gas giant Gazprom (GAZP.MM), has started to move away from the U.S. dollar to China’s yuan in settlements for fuelling planes in China, Gazprom Neft’s CEO Alexander Dyukov said on Friday. The deal has been reached with China’s national jet fuel operator, he said. “We start from September and may…
This is a story that has hardly made it into the media. The significance has not escaped Hal Turner who has put out an alert,“THE” Black Swan Event has Taken Place – Destruction Imminent” to his subscribers. Saudi Defense Minister Khalid bin Salman announced the agreement via Twitter, stating it would aid in “developing joint military cooperation between the two countries.” In a second tweet, he elaborated on his meeting with his Russian counterpart, Sergey Shoygu, in which the pair…
