QUESTION #1: Is this ECASH bill an attempt to do an end-run around the Fed raising interest rates and preparing to default on debt EM QUESTION #2: Martin: Congratulations on your “scoop” regarding ECASH, however…..you have done an extremely poor job of actually describing what it is…who will have it…will it be mandatory for everyone…what […]

QUESTION #1: When I read today that while addressing the Italian Parliament, Zelensky reported that the Russians were “capturing and torturing children” my propaganda antenna went up and the BS detector went off. If true, that is atrocious and a war crime. Putin is crazy but that seems hard to fathom. It would seem like […]

Public confidence has plummeted. People across the world have lost faith in their governments, economy, and overall futures. The 2022 Edelman Trust Barometer surveyed 36,000 respondents from 28 countries in November 2021.

The NY Metropolitan Opera even fired Anna Netrebko, a Russian soprano, because she has ties to Putin. Even in London, Gazprom PJSC’s energy-trading arm is being kicked out of its central London. […]

There are intermarriages in Ukraine. In this case, the Minsk Agreement which was supposed to have been brokered by […]

COMMENT: You are wrong. Putin is the aggressor. SK REPLY: Look, the Minsk Agreement has dragged on for 8 years. You cannot simply blame Putin.
