Here's my take Isaiah. Is America declining? Well, if you don't mind, I'd like to reframe that question with - will the rest of the world rise? And the answer is, they have! In fact, we've all just lived through the changing world order without one fuckin' shot being fired - with a whimper, not a bang, and not surprisingly, no news coverage:) The US $1 trillion military didn't stop it. The 800+ US bases didn't stop it. The murderous US sanctions didn't stop it. The US duplicity from the likes of Victoria "Devil in a Blue Dress" Nuland, or Hillary "we came, we saw, he died" Clinton didn't stop it. Joe "if you don't vote for me you're not Black" Biden, didn't stop it. The $400 billion in profits made by defense contractors in Ukraine didn't stop it. So, what's the it? Fuckin' modernity. When Saudi Arabia and the UAE joined BRICS. That's. The. It. BRICS now controls about 43% of global crude output - so let the de-dollarization games begins!! While this chessboard move was already in the making, the idiocy of the ghouls in the White House and beyond, with their proxy war with Russia, precipitated this move. And while the US won't decline tomorrow, it's hegemony is no more. But don't look for this on the nightly news. The psychological reckoning for the public would be way too much to handle. So, I do believe a decline is in play, but that might not be too bad for the world, or us - depending on how it goes down. And thanks again Isaiah for your writings. You're spot on - even though I'm still working through Wotan :) I'm one of your biggest fans - but don't worry, not in a Misery kind of way :) (I apologize for the colorful language - don't mean to offend!)

I’d be interested in how you see the relationship between the Fed Bank, World Bank and how the battle to replace the dollar (by another national currency such as the Yaun) and the challenge of cryptocurrency will play out
