๐จ๐บ๐ธ๐ฆ Will Trump BANKRUPT the United States?
Forget all the noise about DOGE slashing government waste and fraud.
Trumpโs proposed tax plan would add $5 to $11 trillion to the national debt by 2035. That would push debt to 132% of GDP on the low end and 149% on the high end!
As we explained in the previous post, Trumpโs tariffs will not be sufficient to fill US treasury coffers.

๐ฉ๐ช๐ฆ๐ฃGerman economy on the verge of โKAPUTโ
The implosion of the German economy is accelerating, even more than we predicted.
To make matters worse, Trump has signed new tariffs at 25% for steel and aluminum applied to all countries. Remember that Germany is the 6th largest exporter to the US with $84B in exports.
Scholz and Von der Leyen have vowed that the EU will respond forcefully to the US tariffs. However, Germany's economy is already reeling from Russia sanctions and explosion of Nord Stream pipelines. A US-EU trade war would likely be a knockout blow to the Germany economy, which send shockwaves to the French, Spanish, and other European economies

On February 9, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania disconnected from the BRELL energy ring that supplied them with energy from Russia and Belarus.
Ursula von der Leyen, Zelensky and other European authorities congratulated the Baltic countries for no longer depending on Russian energy. But ordinary citizens are probably less than thrilled.
In 24 hrs. they went from paying:
๐ธ$64.79 MWh. (62.74 EUR)

The Baltic state are now part of the broader European energy crisis. But their numbers are especially bad.
๐ธBaltic States' local electricity production: 18.4 TWh.
๐ธConsumption: 27 TWh.
In other words, a massive deficit.

๐จ๐จ๐ต Can Gold Replace the US Dollar?
The US dollarโs days as the global reserve currency are numbered due to blowback from Western sanctions against Russia, Peter Schiff told #NewRulesPodcast.
โWe told the world get rid of dollars and buy gold, and that's exactly what they've been doing. That's why the price of gold is at an all-time record high. Gold is on pace for its best year since 1979. That is not a coincidence,โ he said.
Trump's recent tariff threats have pushed gold prices to record highs, with gold breaking above $2,900 per ounce for the first time.

๐จ๐บ๐ฆ๐ชBoth Trump & Putin want a peace deal, but Zelensky is hellbent on FIGHTING TO THE LAST UKRAINIAN
The war has turned Zelensky into a power-hungry dictator with enormous wealth. He has banned opposition media outlets, political parties, & Ukraineโs largest religious denomination
Now, Zelenskyโs presidential term expired back in May 2024, but he has illegally clung onto power. But once the war is over, Zelensky will lose the pretext for postponing elections. The polls suggest that he would likely be defeated by former General Valery Zaluzhny
What if Zelensky loses the election?
๐ธHis dictatorial powers & the ability to unlawfully enrich himself would vanish
๐ธThe new Ukrainian government would jail him
๐ธNumerous members of Ukraine's elite seek retribution against him for his attempts to incarcerate & seize their assets
Thatโs why he will publicly support Trumpโs peace initiatives, while working behind the scenes to sabotage him every step of the way

But it is uncertain whether US industry will be able to get all the resources it needs, given Trumpโs newly-imposed tariffs on imports from key US trading partners.
