The Economic & War Policies of Trump’s Regime Create CHAOS

Posted on by Helena

As oil pushes back over $90 – the US Army announces it will spend over $2.2 billion on micronuclear reactors for military bases.  Not overseas, but in the US with bases Fort Bragg, Fort Campbell, Fort Benning, Fort Hood, and Fort Drum cited.  One Issue:   the U.S. Army will be responsible for licensing the reactors rather than the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), which normally licenses commercial nuclear reactors.  WHY?  Why would these mini-micro’s ignore protocol unless they were going to be a false flag destabilizer?

How easy to hack.  How easy to blame said hack.  How many soldiers will be sacrificed in this US Hannibal Directive?

Microreactors face high costs, supply chain disruptions, no plans for storage or radioactive waste, and according to Alan J Kuperman, “The licensing process is a dangerous scam on many levels”. 

The US Military is facing supply shortages, cash shortages, and intellectual shortages.  Hegseth is now borrowing monthly paychecks from soldiers in order to pay for the War in Iran.  Did Hegseth dock his own pay?  In addition, since congress was never empowered to declare War, soldiers and their respective families are not entitled to War benefits for their wounded and dead.  Top military brass have told Hegseth to cease and desist from this ridiculous charade of ego power. He refuses to listen – the Fox News entertainer thinks he knows more than 3 and 4 star generals.

Part of the deficit in the military budget is the paid ‘influencers’ hired by Hegseth to promote everything Trump and the DoD want them to say – including bombing Kharg Island and decimating their missile facilities… never happened.  They claim the Navy has dredged an alternative waterway next to Oman where tankers have been freely transiting.  Never Happened.  Instead, influencers are ordered to post AI videos to supplement the lies.

What has happened is more US bases, more soldiers, who are not entitled to War reparations, are now being hit in Jordan.  Oil went long on the markets just before the hit on Larak Island.  Simultaneously, Melania Trump made an odd remark claiming Barron now ‘gets it’.  Did Barron Trump make yet another cool million? 

The Economic Sanction package that was imposed last week by Bessent as the largest Sanction package in history is now being surpassed by a ‘secondary economic Sanction Package’ because the first one didn’t work given Turkey, China, and Russia all said they would ignore the Trade Blockage.  The Influencers are claiming Bessent is a Genius.  Yet, the consensus says he’s a Fool.  His political science degree and his failed hedge funds are not a stellar resume attribute.

Today, an unidentified  supertanker was hit by two mines and caught fire.  US denies it happened. I suppose that means the Navy vessels monitoring the Strait will not rescue the crew… Brent broke $91 and Diesel tracked over $100 adding to the inflation that the White House Regime refuses to acknowledge – ‘it’s all Biden’s fault’.  Since Centcom released a statement that ALL mines had been disabled, at least 4 ships attempting to traverse the Strait hit mines with significant damage reported. Marine Insurance preiums have sky-rocketed from .15% to 10% of a ship’s value.  For Example: a tanker carrying $100 million in oil will now pay $10 million transit fee for a single passage. 

We have only tasted the rip this idiocy is going to do to the Global Economy – ALL for Trump’s Ego. 

Oil Profits are hedged by the 30% increase in price with less transit sales. We are experiencing the CoVid Inflation as originally executed by Trump and Fauci.  And all Trump’s ‘fabulous deals’ are collapsing under Truth Tellers;

  • The Venezuela 65 billion in reserves deal is for crude that is so heavy it’s cost breakeven is roughly $60 a barrel. It is curious why Trump would ignore the 198 billion in US reserves untapped… The production point in time for Venezuela crude is roughly 10-15 years in the future.
  • Attacking the refineries as gouging oil prices is an economic pitfall. Refineries are refining LESS as a result of Trump’s non-War War:
  • “Both crude oil and refined product markets are like global auctions. Participants in the oil markets, including refineries, crude producers, and traders around the world, bid to buy and offer to sell available crude oil. And then fuel distributers around the world bid for the gasoline, diesel, jet fuel and other products refineries make. The combined activity in these two markets is what determines refining margins.” ~US Energy Information Administration.
  • The Strategic Reserves: As Trump claims the Venezuela oil will replace the emptied Reserves – so far, all the confiscated/pirated oil by US Tankers has transported it to – Israel at American’s Cost. With zero Benefit. IF we are to believe the White House, the reserves are at 1982 levels – 289 million barrels. The daily average use is roughly 21 million – giving us less than 14 days supply.

With the exception of PAID DoD Influencers, Hegseth’s reputation has been brutalized as wholly incompetent having crippled the Military and snubbed the needs of soldiers and their families. Morale is leading to chaos; 60,000 civilian employees have left the Dod, 45 officers have been delisted from promotion, and a dozen high ranking Generals have left – just since the installation of Hegseth. Instead of Generals we get paid Influencers.  Paid for by – Taxpayers.

Not to worry – Hegseth’s wife has apparently managed to increase her ‘portfolio’ rather extensively.  Meanwhile just 43 NGO’s have had their funding yanked amounting to $4 million in savings, out of an estimated $300 billion charities we support…via the government. 

The estimate is likely considerably below reality.

Where’s The Beef? Buyer Beware – Toxic Chemicals and Fake Meat

Posted on by Helena

Where’s The Beef?  Trump reluctantly agreed after much prodding to reveal the source of the Beef import meant to lower the cost at the grocery stores by 35% – Argentina.  Problem: Argentina beef contains chloramphenicol – an antibiotic injected into the cows. It is banned for all food animals worldwide – obviously Melie chose to try and evade that ban. The side effects include:

  • Blood disorders: Bone marrow failure and fatal aplastic anemia can happen even after small doses.
  • Gray baby syndrome: Newborns can get low blood pressure, blue skin, and belly swelling.
  • Nerve issues: Numbness in the hands or feet or optic nerve damage may occur.
  • Stomach upset: Nausea, vomiting, and loose stools

When Argentina tried to sell 22 tons of this tainted beef to China March 2026 – they refused delivery.  Is Trump buying the same frozen batch China already refused?  How old is it?  When asked, Trump’s response is that ‘Argentina is hurting really bad’.  Why is Argentina hurting so badly? The so called Libertarian economics employed by Milei, a man who has never held a serious job in his life, has made the Argentine Peso worth – $.00.  Those who had money to begin with are feeling GREAT – the remaining ordinary folk can’t make ends meet. Translation:  40% of the population are in ‘poverty’.

Argentina Government debt stands at $485 Billion (assuming Milei is telling the truth). Treasury Secretary Bessent came to the rescue and instead of making our $20 billion investment in Argentina a debt instrument back in 2025, Bessent used the $20 billion to buy Pesos which are now worthless.

Treasury Secretary Bessent is an economic wizard in his own mind – and no one else’s apparently.  Due to the selloff of Treasuries, the yield climbed past 5.3%.  Bessent is buying back those long term treasuries and replacing them with short term Treasuries at a lower yield.  What are the main causes of the Treasury selloff?  DEBT and WAR.  So instead of addressing the causes, Bessent is playing the fool.  And it’s not the first time in his financial history.

Bessent’s mismanagement of funds is ‘extraordinary’.  He is a Wizard at Losing Money. His dabblings have included real estate wins and losses. Soros cut him off after Bessent’s second attempt at his own hedge fund collapsed.  It is likely due to these losses that Bessent was considered a good choice for managing America’s entire wealth system.  He has managed to kill the housing market completely.  Oil prices confuse him. And his bachelors degree in political science does nothing to help him manage hyper-economic conditions, or micro and macro trends.

Trump’s response? Kids today need to work harder – they are lazy good for nothing. Winning Trump yet another block of voters – right?  It appears the last leg of Trump voters can barely fill a school auditorium – who that leg is would be the $1.598 Question. 

Trump’s plan to import 660 million pound of frozen beef trimmings without 25% Tariffs is a scam:  Headline – Argentina and U.S. sign a major trade deal to slash tariffs, boost political alliance.   Reality; Argentina was under a reciprocal 10% Tariff rate.  February 2026, the White House Released a statement that beef and agriculture goods from Argentina were duty free.  So how will this 660 million pounds be priced?

Argentine beef exports to the United States (which primarily consist of frozen lean “trimmings” used to make ground beef) are costing importers an average of $8,300 per metric ton. This breaks down to approximately $8.30 per kilogram (or roughly $3.76 per pound) before additional domestic freight, blending, grocer profits and processing costs. Currently, US importers pay more for Argentina beef than ANY other country – roughly $700 per ton – thus importing 300,000 tons are already overpriced by $210,000,000. 

Argentinian beef was banned in the US for 14 years ending in 2015 due to its cattle having foot and mouth disease outbreaks.  This would account for the antibiotic chloramphenicol being used – illegally.

America’s Agriculture Secretary is Brooke Rollins, she is a lawyer.  Will she order inspection of the imported trimmings or will she be ordered to let it slide? Rollins previously served with Jared Kushner in the Office of American Innovation – neither Rollins or Kushner possess any formal or Informal training in technology or innovation.   This office was created by Trump in 2017 and dissolved in 2021.  During its entire tenure this office accomplish absolutely – NOTHING.

The Trump Piggy Bank today tapped the $90 million slush fund labeled Emergency Planning and Security which was used to cover a portion of the Indy Car Race at the Capitol. I was not aware that an Indy Car Race was an Emergency… But Social Security is going broke.

It will take several months for the Argentina non-beef – beef trimmings to arrive in the US – and more time for processors to mix it with US beef to make it palatable – antibiotics and all.  In my neck of the woods, ground beef now runs from a low of $6.47 on sale to about $10 per pound.  It has become a luxury. There is also the possibility that Trump plans to hide buying Bill Gates fake beef and working that into the ‘trimmings’… 

BUYER BEWARE! 

Communism. A Deflection From Global Economies & Trump

Posted on by Helena

The Communist Propaganda League:  Formed in Chicago on November 7, 1918, coinciding with the first anniversary of the Russian Bolshevik Revolution. The group emerged from the left-wing faction of the Socialist Party of America to promote Marxist ideology and soviet-style communism. It’s source alliance was the Bolshevik Communist Party of the Soviet Union calling for ‘Revolution’ and ending the passivity of the ‘petty bourgeoise’ of the Socialist Party. Key founders include: C.E. Ruthenberg, Alfred Wagenknecht, John Reed, and Benjamin Gitlow.

The Communist Party of America exists today with three leaders running the show; Rossana Cambron of Mexican descent, Joe Sims an African American, and Anita Waters professor emerita of sociology. Members have been described as ‘anarchists’ due to their labor union and militant revolutionary adherences. They basically represent FDR and the New Green Deal.

What they are NOT is adherents of Islam.

Mamdani is a member of the Democratic Socialists of America with a total membership of 120,000.  Not exactly what one might call a ‘landslide of society’. But the message from Trump would be that they are taking over America’s 335 million citizens.  The source of the deflection of course was Israel given their propaganda campaign reaching into the billions was Not Working. And American Taxpayers paying for the Israeli campaign were now broke.

In 2023, Mamdani axed his International Socialist membership for the International Progressives led by David Adler, of French Jewish origin who participated in the 2025 Flotilla in support of Gaza. He was detained in the Israeli prison Ktzi -Ot under detention by Ben Gvir before being released to Jordan five days later.

This idiocy is the diverted focus while global economies are rumbling into the empty train station. The Trump train leading the pack of crash and burn.

This is how upside down the politics of America have become in order to keep people frazzled and radicalized. But the deeper concern that is given very little media attention by ‘journalists’ is the economies of America, France, Japan and Britain are running on ‘bonds’. The yield on the 30 year Treasury has now topped 5.29%. The source? Oil prices as a direct result of America’s assault on Iran which caused an oil crunch that will likely balloon into an inflationary nightmare.

Those higher yields mean a climbing interest expense for Trump’s regime government topping over $1 trillion. For Japan, the debt service is expected to consume 30% of their entire budget by 2029. While it appears Bessent and Trump are attempting to hasten that breech by forcing the Japanese government to raise yields. Japan runs an annual deficit of just shy 32% which requires the issuance of more bonds to cover the gap – with higher interest rates, the death spiral hastens.

France is battling three fronts – debt yield spending, Trump Tariffs, and Trump’s forced military spending drift. The UK is falling behind due to higher oil prices, inflation, and interest on debt. However, the UK has consistently run deficits in all but five years since 1970. Not as a result of Immigration. Their economy can’t last and the influx of immigrants is simply an excuse for their corrupted and depraved economic policies.  Business as usual.

Trump is taking credit now for keeping the Strait of Hormuz shut down without realizing that by default he is the source of global economies collapsing due to lack of trade and cargo. Thereby – driving inflation. The Greenland mission for rare earths to compensate for the critical lack thereof will not be viewed as a solution given it would take at least 8 years for production. Time Trump no longer has in his favor. CNN recently claimed that the Pentagon mismanagement of weapons is driven by massive internal corruption and skimming. Leaving a potential 80 years lapse before full replenishment. Thereby announcing to the world that America is a sitting duck – should anyone be interested.

The Saudi pipeline is operational with extra costs and logistics attached; time and capacity. Capacity is 2.5 million barrels per day running 200 miles across Egypt from the Red Sea to the Mediterranean. While this benefits the Saudis, it does nothing for the remaining Middle East.  For a $2 million barrel cargo that amounts to an extra cost of $10 million. Far more than a potential transit fee in the Strait of $1 million.  Nor does it fill the gap.

WHERE will the US get the funds to replenish the weapons inventory when we already run a $2 trillion annual deficit? And American Taxpayers are drained! The only weapons still available are thus – nukes.  Enough to blow up earth a dozen times.  But wait – our nuclear program is out of date and upgrades are necessary to the tune of $1 trillion in today’s dollars, ten years to accomplish, and corruption fees in the range of $250 billion give or take.  Of course, by that time, nukes will be wholly worthless as new forms of energy, in particular fusion, make nukes antiquated and obsolete. A thorough waste of $$$. But The Pentagon needs their tribe tithe – so Israel can survive.

I wonder how many of their 250+ nukes are obsolete as well?

CSIS in complete oblivion to reality is duly focused on how the US can beat China in shipbuilding, AI, electric vehicles, and their commercial space program – all of which would cost $40 trillion??  Which is why we are in this MESS – the US Government never considers COST and DEBT.  Wherein the economy collapses before anything viable is produced.  I think CSIS just creates articles to keep their funding afloat and nothing more.

Information is the bastion of societal preservation. And Truth has been blowing in the wind for way too LONG!

Governments Are Unessential To A World Lived In Nature

Posted on by Helena

From the perspective of economics, Trump’s Housing Bill is pure Trash.  The ONLY way prices on anything go down is via a crash and burn.  Housing costs rise because real inflation is in the realm of 18%.  Materials costs rise with Tariffs.  Cheap Labor has been deported. A 2 point increase in mortgage rates can be defined as a 50% increase in mortgage costs.  Insurance companies raised rates by about 250%. Property Taxes raised rates by about 75%. To actually lower costs – one would need to force costs to repeal all increases since 2017.  Never going to happen – unless the entire economy crashes.

In the 1980’s when markets crashed, housing crashed because of foreclosures.  Millions were forced to walk away. Foreign money was yanked – those owners disappeared and banks were left holding inventory that was worth half the marginal original mortgage.  Bankruptcies skyrocketed.  My husband and I extracted ourselves from the world and lived on a sailboat in Sausalito. We were lucky.

All of these crashes are orchestrated. When economies become unmanageable, the government creates crashes because they have no other solution. Trump’s Housing Bill would be the equivalent of putting a Band-aide on hemorrhaging wounds from 20 gunshots.  MAYBE one artery will slow down – but the rest will quickly deplete life.  The patient – the house – will die.

This is the cycle of capitalism. And still, economists pretend their algorithms, their models, their graphs, can solve the problems. When in fact they are literally paid propagandists. Degreed, they flaunt their expertness that solves – nothing.  Like Doctors who prescribe pill-poppers that create 15 other ailments. The Capitalist MODEL is dead. And like good little gnomes, our governments pretend they can solve these manifestations of collapse in order to lift the illusion they are essential.

Years ago, LA conducted a test of sorts and hired a highway contractor with caveats: build the road in a specific timeline within a specific hard budget – if you complete the project early there will be a bonus – complete the project late and there will be a deficit charged against you. SURPRISE – they came in early.  Yet instead of employing this model across all of California, the very capitalist government decided this reality didn’t fit their ‘model’ and yanked all subsequent contracts that followed this bidding.

This refusal to adopt what is best is the MODEL employed by all of America.  It has decimated the economy.  It has created the schism that graphs extremes in polar different directions between cost of living vs wages and income.  Not One President understands this economic reality.  Least of all Trump whose businesses fail while reaping him personally.  So when the Housing Bill is brought forth to a Congressional vote wherein not one of them have a degree in real world economics and instead tout their Law Degree from Hobuncken – this is the end result.

Someone on Twitter challenged me because I research history – ‘what good is history – you need to see the present, the real world’.  HISTORY unedited – is the Real World. Because everything on earth is a series of constant cycles.  Unless we can find those cycles we are destined to repeat our mistakes.  Not unlike the many CIA driven movies that reveal this osmosis of reliving the same day over and over again. The scenery is different, but we are reliving the 13th century the 14th century, the 16the century etc… 

And the only way to stop the cycle is to change our response.

Something we have yet to do. But can do. A choice.

What does Utopia look like? Is Utopia a world of hybrid humans who have lost the last vestige of purpose? Is it cities built with gold and jewels? Is it living on a desolate planet breathing through tubes and aging at a rate where lifespans are diminished to 25 years? Is it living in congestion? Having no creative mind? No challenge? No constructiveness? Wallowing. Fat. Wherein all of life is a remote headset? Because that is exactly what our Elite, including Musk, would have us believe is our Utopia.   

Or is Utopia the return to nature, to being a part of, a being of, the world in its wholeness of energy and nature – expanding our brains to see the colors and sounds that we have suppressed? The ability to fly. The ability to take only what is necessary and expand on what is not. Is Utopia really what the Nephilim of dark angels tells us is our future? Why are so many so easily swayed by the dark side?

Why is it that the woke want to expand nature and the Nephilim humans want to eradicate it?  What are they afraid of?

Capitalism is a form of slavery.  It has not created wealth or power or happiness.  It has created Bombast, Wars, Trump, and Poverty.  All under a fake banner to hide the fact that western nations are under Communist Totalitarian Rule.

The Housing Bill is simply another bombast of fakery and will have little effect on a delusional world vision. But it will become legal tender for our government to create greater division, egocentric disutility, and a Fall within the historical frame of Noah and The Floods.

Don’t be like them. Embrace nature. Talk to nature. Be stewards of Nature as God originally directed.  

AI Is Over-Valued And The US Economy Is Over Projected

Posted on by Helena

Warnings are out across the globe that AI has expanded and evolved to the extent that no one is prepared to rein in the hackers. Anthropic is a US AI company unprepared for the consequences as AI is now developing AI. AI could evolve outside of human input altering and reshaping the security, the target, methodology, and off-switch. Anthropic claims that some of its products are so highly advanced they cannot properly be released to the general public. Other models have been completely taken ‘offline’. What could go wrong?

Anthropic was formed just 5 years ago by a Jewish brother/sister duo, Dario and Daniela Amodei and Theoretical Physicist, Jared Kaplan. Israel is one of Anthropics largest markets.

Ted Cruz is vehemently declaring that the US needs to ramp up AI before we take the back seat to China. Simultaneously the South Korean AI Market experienced a sharp selloff yesterday and today that selloff hit US stocks as the margin calls collapsed.  The high flyers began dropping over 13% –  Given the Korean stocks were heavily margined, margin calls could have simply tipped the selloff into overdrive – which would have been an AI algorithm – hysterically. However, market gurus think AI companies were over-priced and a correction was/is necessary – ten percent is usually the go to for a small correction.

On the other hand, like oil, traders can force sells to find a low to get back in. Markets are as corrupt as our government.

Like margin calls, when AI develops AI it can trigger automated attacks something like the 250 nukes that Netanyahu has strategically positioned across multiple sites for a global holocaust.  Everything automated is subject to external hacks – whether the hack is a person or another AI – the outcome is never positive. Grid exposures. Water sanitation exposures.  Weather manipulation exposures. Fires. Satellites. Etc…  The risk is outweighing the reward.

CYBER ATTACKS:  According to CSIS, significant cyber attacks on government agencies began increasing exponentially 20 years ago in 2006.  The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is based in Arlington and its ‘Acting’ Director is Nick Anderson.  His resume is stellar.  On the other hand, the FBI is the investigating agency of cyber attacks and right now Kash Patel has focused his time and attention on – the reflecting pool.  Pulling in National Guard troops he has made 6 arrests including a young girl who was filming the algae, and a young man who put is hand in the water.  Kash wants felony charges for those actions. Priorities.

The number of technology layoffs since Trump took office have surpassed over 400,000 globally.  Of those, roughly 246,000 were in the US.  Without human interaction how can AI be regulated? Certainly, governments can’t regulate it any more than they can regulate guns. There are good guys and bad guys.  The more AI, the more bad guys come out of the woodwork to hack.  It is so prevalent there is a dedicated site – Hacker News.  All they report are the daily hacks.

One of their stories that didn’t make mainstream is that Trump signed an EO yesterday: setting hard deadlines for federal agencies to move high-value assets and high-impact systems to post-quantum cryptography: “A cryptographic security system uses mathematical algorithms to encode data into unreadable ciphertext. It ensures confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity, protecting digital information from unauthorized access or tampering.”  The reason?  US Government Agencies are sitting ducks for hackers, their IT structure a veritable antiquated mess that Musk and DOGE offered to fix – DENIED>

It is widely known that the US government’s IT and Security apparatus in place are horrifically dated. A 2030 deadline is wishful thinking.

The Department of Commerce has called for Anthropic models Mythos 5 and Fable 5 to be delisted from export to any foreign country due to security risks. Does this include Israel?  Anthropic claims; “The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.” This reveals how serious the risk is and yet only confers this on one company – Anthropic.

There are seven companies that dominate the AI industry: Nvidia, Microsoft, Google, Anthropic, Amazon, Meta and Open AI. While their functions vary, they are integrated and necessary for each other to operate efficiently.  Nvidia leads as the global dominant valued at $5 trillion. But a look at their current financial statements reveal a wholly different value:  Net Equity 1/31/2026 is $157 Billion.  Net Income 2025 was $72.88 Billion. In other words, a $5 trillion valuation is based on anticipated future forecasts – not current equity. Still, a multiplier of 68.5 is not in any realm realistic. And the Department of Commerce just tabled 2 of its biggest assets – Fable and Mythos.

The macroeconomic effects of AI are up for debate: 

A. capital investments and productivity have boosted the global economy by $250 Billion. The corporate investment is primarily driven by Data Centers which produce zero income. The energy demand is taxing civilization. And the layoffs are impacting employment.

 B. Therefore economists project that there are ‘hidden economic values’ such as deflation and performance boosts.  I call Bull Shiitake.

Of course, inflation is measured by prices as is GDP – sell less at twice the cost and GDP rises.  Inflation causes our GDP to rise artificially when REAL prices are replaced with the rent-a-shack model.  Which is a part of the reason the South Korean market tumbled – over-valuation of tech companies is artificial and therefore contrarian to markets. So, when AI companies are over valued and the damage cost of global cyber attacks in 2026 is projected to surpass $10.5 Trillion – the numbers are NOT adding up and our entire Wall Street Projections are collapsing in real time – with projected time frames of 3-4- months. 

Buckle Up Sugar Cup!

The Economy, The Numbers, And The Stats

Posted on by Helena

The average tax refund for filers in 2025 per the IRS is $3275.  The average tax refund for filers in 2024 was $3138.  An increase of 4% but less than 2021 and 2022.  But averages are rather meaningless when incomes vary from $-0- to hundreds of millions.  The average refund for taxpayers making over $1 million jumps to $246,696. That category is lumped in with the low end of $898 in refund if you make less than $5000. 

Like most numbers coming out of the White House, ‘average refund’ is a ridiculous base line of economic success. He other one is the DOW. Worse:  Bezos effective tax rate is 1.1%. Trump has paid no taxes since 2020. The reason?  Massive business losses. Of the 700 billionaires in the US, their effective tax rate is just 8% – although there have been years where these elitists paid nothing. The reason Trump doesn’t take a salary is because it would raise his tax liability on all his income. Stealing allows for tax evasion.

People have been advocating for a flat tax since I was born.  It won’t happen.  The idea that Tariff Revenue would replace the income tax was a fantasy that never even came close and died from the media standpoint.

The Board of Peace funds originally deposited in the World Bank have been withdrawn and redeposited into an individual personal account at JP Morgan. No transparency requirements are required. 

The Trump Rx Fiasco:  Drug companies involved in the program drastically increased their spending through lobbying firms with ties to the administration. For instance, a firm associated with Donald Trump Jr. saw its federal lobbying revenue jump significantly after representing major manufacturers who secured pricing deals on TrumpRx.  While benefiting Big Pharma given Trump Rx does not list generic counterparts, the kickbacks to Trump et al, are likely in the range of ‘Angies List’.  Trump does NOTHING for free.

I decided to look at the terms:  1. To get the sale price it is a cash out of pocket price – insurance doesn’t apply.  2.  The price only applies if continuous monthly refills are ordered. 3. The amount may be changed by the manufacturer at will and without notice. 4. You give the manufacturer all your information which can be used for whatever purpose. 5. Zepbound is Lilly’s weight loss drug – it must be taken for life just like all weight loss drugs. 6.  On TrumpRx a discounted monthly cost was $299 for a 2.5 dose.  With insurance the price is $25 per month.  Other discounted Rx Companies offer pricing at $99 to $159.

TRUMP REVENUE:

Everything Trump touches turns to trash.  How much would his businesses have to lose every year that generated enough to wipe out all income?  In 2020 Trump claimed business losses on his personal tax return of $20.5 million. Donald Trump Holdings, LLC reported losses of $59.945 million. DJT Holdings Managing Member, LLC = losses of $3.65 million. DTTM Partnership losses $758,500.  All while his Net Worth ROSE.

Funny Numbers. 

The Funny Numbers only apply to The Club and are only outdone by the Funny Policies:

Trump has announced that he doesn’t care about the Midterms (likely already fixed) therefore he is going to do ‘nothing’ in regards to an Iran Deal.  Meaning hardship is about to get much harder.  Brent Crude stands at $95. But commodity markets in general remain very volatile as the shipping crunch ensures more shortages.  With China reaping the greatest supplies.

There are only five countries with budget surpluses; Norway, Singapore, Luxembourg, Qatar, and Switzerland. The global economy is just as much a farce as America’s.  Exasperated by Trump’s inability to do anything about the Strait of Hormuz but prick the bear, so to speak. The Bond market is reacting.  Not just because of the Strait but also because of the tariffs – a double whammy.

The end result of the two pronged whammy is inflation.  Funny numbers or not, inflation will spike as trade drops and shortages accrue putting a damper on growth. Mortgage rates have climbed to 6.65% and 6.9%.  The annual cost of debt has surpassed $1 Trillion – for context that is 20% of all federal tax revenue collected.   Matched closely by Defense Spending of just shy of $1 trillion …and Federal level fraud clocking in at $714 billion.  Together accounting for nearly 50% of tax revenue. This does not include the Bunker, the ballroom, the arche, the pool, the MMC, or the rest of Government Agency spending.

Capitalism as it stands is NOT working.  Capitalism as defined by America’s Government is a Mafia Government built on fraud, blackmail, graft, theft, and lies.  Climbing out of this is akin to holding onto a snake that is wrapped around a twig on a tree as we slowly sink in quicksand. 

We need to scrap the Federal Government & Capitalism.

The Data Center Boom Bust Combustion Has Begun

Posted on by Helena

AI will Liberate Humanity!  Every household will have their private robot for free!  Humans will never work again!  And the mass hypnosis droned on and on and on.  Except AI agrees that we were lied to.  AI: the reality reveals that computing power, energy consumption, and high token usage make AI an exceptionally expensive line item.  In fact, so expensive that businesses are shutting down use of AI as it is pricing them out of business.

Nvidia’s Vice President of Applied Deep Learning publicly stated that compute costs for their AI engineering teams far surpass the actual cost of the employees’ salaries.  An economic analysis by MIT found that AI is only cost-effective in about 23% of basic jobs; in the remaining 77%, keeping a human worker is the more economically viable option.

Making all those 5,000+ Data Centers ‘obsolete’ and the new ones being built a fictional storyline. It is called ‘token usage’ and small business owners are staring down bills as high as $113,000.  Heavy users were burning $500 to $2,000 per month each. Microsoft is banning the use of AI by its engineers.  The Boom is going to Bust after global spending reaching over $6.7 Trillion. 

Across the board tech companies claim that human employees are much more cost effective.  But our scholarly education systems have failed to teach real world skills for engineers leaving 80% unemployable.  Exasperating a problem that will become exponential as businesses scramble for humans to replace AI.  Are we in the beginning stages of an AI bubble?

Many companies were deepening their debt as they bought into the data center hype.  Offloading AI means that debt remains with no value to offset it. When the value is gone, companies have to raise their pricing to mitigate the debt. And the inflation cycle ramps up rather quickly.  The debt attached via bank loans could see a chapter 11 fallout as companies can’t afford the data costs much less the loans.  The Department of War engaging in many of the largest data centers across the country, including in Utah, have yet to book or analyze the costs.  And given Hegseth’s extensive ‘math and accounting’ background the Pentagon is going to go broke.

Making Trump’s Military bunker under the Ballroom even more suspect for its unsustainability.  Although, on a brighter note, the economic realization may be a pushback for the launch of the ‘digital credit system’ as proposed by the World Economic Forum. Building a global credit and financial system involves monumental outlays, including trillions in infrastructure and immense societal trade-offs.  While the structure could be built in roughly 3 years, the integration would take another 7 to 10 years.  Variability being country specific.

The land alone for these data centers is in the billions with military intelligence costs considered “classified”.  One such data center is owned by the NSA and is located at Camp Williams, Utah.  Perspective:  The Camp David data center is 1 million square feet. 100,000 of the million is designated mission critical Tier III, while 900,000 square feet is designated technical support and admin – 90%.  Completed in 2014, the twenty building complex includes water treatment facilities, chiller plants, electric substation, fire pump house, warehouse, vehicle inspection facility, visitor control center, and sixty diesel-fueled emergency standby generators and fuel facility for a 3-day 100% power backup capability. This was the source for Edward Snowden’s whistleblower release. 

The electricity cost for Camp Williams data center is $70 million, Maintenance is another $20 million, water usage is 1.5 million gallons daily.  It is built on a desert.  The purpose?  Surveillance.

While government subsidies have eliminated property taxes on these facilities, their value to the state is a negative number given the depletion of electricity and water.  Their employees are not local.  And their spectrum of surveillance is on a global as well as national level.  In that regard, it is curious why we would need more than one.   According to Bloomberg, in 2026 half of all proposed data centers will face delays or cancellation. Why?  Shortage of materials and supply chain delays.

Components are not manufactured in the US so contractors need to buy from Canada, Mexico, South Korea and – China.  But Trump has created riffs with these countries hemorrhaging land loans, inflating building costs, while interest rates on loans eat up the remaining cash on hand. Which is why corporations are looking into Bond Sales, Bridge Loans, and other means as time frames lag.

With the realization that AI is cost prohibitive, corporations scaling back will create a glut of outstanding loans against vacant land. Banks will look for bailouts. And the circle will stop short.  Oracle has $100 billion in debt against an Abilene data center where clients are walking away.  Outstanding debt has reached hundreds of billions with Morgan Stanley claiming the need for Trillions in external funding in America alone.

The Military Funding on taxpayer debt?  Top Secret – super doper classified. Don’t even ask – whisper…

Productivity and Growth in America – An Economic Stagnation

Posted on by Helena

Big Pharma/Healthcare has become the defining industry driving America’s economy.   In 2024, healthcare spending reached $5.3Trillion and employs over 18 million.  It is the number two industry for spending and employment, second to the US Government. These two industries combined represent 28% to 30% of all US employment.  They produce nothing of value to the economy, are both driven by sick people, and are the bulwarks and drivers of US growth.   

Which is not ‘growth’ at all.  Productivity is growth. Key factors which stimulate growth include technological innovation, investment in capital goods (machinery, infrastructure), improvements in human capital (education and training), and the accumulation of natural resources. What can we trade?  What can we sell?  The largest manufacturing employer in the US is Boeing.  The first quarter of 2026 revealed a 50% uptick in defense earnings driven by Boeing, Lockheed, Raytheon and Northrup.  None of which contributes to the ‘economy’ and stability of America.

The focus is a cycle of expansion, profit, more.  While providing Americans with a continual graveyard of less.  Other unproductive assets include Lawyers and Bankers.  Lawyers fight for their own profits and Bankers manage the Lawyers money.  They comprise upwards of 3 million in employment statistics.  Incoming generations looking for work are now rejected as AI replaces key growth industries – technology and education. Every Industrial Revolution creates this schism, leaving behind the old for the new, which will make life so much better and people ~ Happy…

We are not in a season of ‘happy’.  And the promise we are given is that everything will be much worse tomorrow.  The question remains, can we step out of this Matrix, or is this simply our destiny?

Modern warfare generally cripples long-term GDP, destroys infrastructure, and leaves a lasting economic burden, creating a “false boom” built on destroying wealth rather than creating it.  Trump wants Americans to foot the Bill for the destruction in the Middle East.  Each country is estimating their respective damage, not including lost revenue, is in the range of $60 Billion+.  Those countries include Iran, Qatar, UAE, Kuwait, Bahrain, and Saudi Arabia. Total Tab $360 billion to $400 billion not including America’s losses. On a military budget of $1.5 trillion which equates to the largest industry responsible for ‘deficit spending’.

Data Centers service technology including AI.  Not through productivity and growth, but in maintaining the lost human capital while depleting water resources which will impair agriculture, ranches and drinking water for millions.  With more online, Texas Data Centers now use 50 billion gallons of water annually.  The entire city of Austin uses 45.6 billion gallons of water annually hosting 61 data centers.  Residents are on severe water restrictions.  AI will require a 300% to 400% increase in water useage.  And governments tell citizens to conserve in order for AI to exist.  Growth?  Productivity?  No.  An Industrial Revolution directly devaluing not just human capital – but humanity.

Israel has come up with a solution – desalinization plants across the coastlines – built  by an Israeli company, IDE Technologies. A private company fully owned by Alfa Water Partners, run by CEO – Alon Tevor.  Three wastewater treatment plants have already been built by them in America; Colorado, California, and Florida.  The cost for a desalinization plant is roughly $1.7 Billion and takes 5 years to build.

Avshalom Felber is the owner of Alfa Water Partners involved in a fraud scheme wherein they used a shell company they claimed was based in Switzerland to get contracts from the Saudis, Pakistan and Kuwait. The Middle East boycotts desalinization contracts with Israel.

America needs a blueprint.  A new economic model.  A means of fairly sharing resources.  Otherwise, we will be importing everything and exporting nothing.  It is already a given that our debt is never going to diminish and continue to grow until other countries simply refuse to take our money as it deflates on a daily basis.  Crypto?

Trump and Melania have both issued their own memecoins – they retained 75% of sales profiting nicely while the valuations tanked. January 19, 2025, Trump’s memecoin reached $45.47, today it is valued at $2.20 to $2.50, a fifteen-month loss of 95%.  He considers himself a Crypto Genius.  The conglomerate, World Liberty, is 49% owned by the UAE.  There are 24.67 billion tokens in circulation with a valuation of 7.2cents per token and $1.776 billion total.  The UAE’s share is thus $870 million.

Memecoin gambling – The Casino Effect.  Nothing of value produced.  All this money and nothing.  This is a perfect example of the Economic BUST that Trump and his Mafia Partners are producing for America.  Add WAR to the equation, and America is spiraling rapidly into a black hole.

Mass production of robots is a few years away with Tesla Optimus, UBTECH Walker, Agibot and Unitree Robotics.  Made in China with the exception of Tesla.

America Is In A Recession Carved By Trump’s War Machine

Posted on by Helena

According to Business Insider, the US is not facing a recession – we are effectively in one.  Caused by economic uncertainty directly related to Trump’s War Machine.  The Hit to Taxpayers to date for the Iran War alone is $58 Billion.  Hegseth has now asking GM and Ford to cut their car manufacturing and retool more weapon manufacturing.  Fires are burning amidst a massive drought across Colorado and Trump has twice refused Governor Polis any aid support.  US infrastructure needs a $3 Trillion boot to upgrade from its C Rating.  And America has become the Pirates of the sea confiscating oil. 

Oil and Gas facilities across the Middle East took the greatest proportion of damaging cost pegged at $50 billion.  Who will pay?  Iran has stated that the Middle Eastern countries which hosted the US and Israeli strikes should foot the bill – however, logistics in completion could cost the economy outside of repairs and run many years.  Saudi Arabia has formally announced the US is officially persona-non-grata.  And a riff seems to be in the air between the UAE and Oman over the Iran War.  As a direct result, at least $3.34 Trillion will be removed from Trump’s Investment pledges. 

Where is the MONEY going to come from in America?  With $2 Trillion annual deficit spending it appears as though printing worthless money is the solution.  Ratcheting up inflation and further depressing individual taxpayers, seniors, and small businesses.  Yet according to the White House – we are all enjoying the best economy ever!!!  How could we possibly have missed all that wealth?

Looking at numbers:  To invest with Blackrock or any of the controlling hedge funds one needs a ‘minimum’ of $2 million cash.  The number of 401(k)’s with a balance of $1 million or more is 3.2%.  The average balance of a 401(k) for millennials is $67,000.  When Media Pundits Hail the Stock Market as a measure of the economy, they are literally hailing the 2%ers.  It is a meaningless measure and has been for decades.  But the market is labeled the Hallelujah of American exceptionalism while it makes money for ONLY the wealthiest 2%.

The Supreme Court ruled in February that Trump’s tariffs were illegal and would need to be repaid.  Trump was forced to reduce all tariffs to 10% valid for only 5 months before requiring full Congressional approval Per Section 122.  The repayment for all tariffs collected prior to the Supreme Court ruling still holds.

By focusing on Wars, Trump has ignored the Economy while attempting to take credit for every company announcement of restructuring and building.  By refusing to pay back the $200 billion in illegally imposed tariffs he opens Americans to a lawsuit.  By taking credit for companies planned expansions of internal investments, he has joined the ranks of gobspeak just as he continues to declare he personally stopped 9 Wars… and threatens Norway because he didn’t get the Nobel Peace Prize.

The timeline for the Middle East to rebuild their oil and gas infrastructure is estimated to take 5-10 YEARS.  While Trump is still talking about bombing Turkey and Cuba because they insulted Israel. 

Meanwhile, as intel agencies continue their high speed rhetoric claiming China is a threat to the US, that ‘threat’ is now real, not in a military sense, but in an economic sense.   And in the sense of Respect.   America needs a massive overhaul of Washington to even survive much less attain lost dominance.  Hungary comes to mind. 

Orban was in control of Hungary for 16 years.  Corruption was rampant.  Magyar broke ranks with Orban taking control of the Parliament in a slam dunk.  How that plays out could help America learn how to mitigate Trump’s authoritarianism.  While Magyar is on the same page as Orban regarding immigration, his views on the EU are stronger than Orban’s while still pragmatic about Hungary’s reliance on Russian oil.   But the means he created his campaign is of interest – and should be particularly so with American Millennials.

IN DC, 20 members of the House are over 80.  60% of the Senate are baby boomers with an ‘average’ age of 64.  It is time for an overhaul of agers.  They need to go.  Mandatory retirement for the military is 62 with the exception of generals.  There should be no exception, but it provides a framework for Congress.  Either follow the mandatory age of 62 or reboot everyone to 70.  But there is no exception to the rule. 

Magyar is 45.  He created what were called Tisza Islands, or small civic groups.  These groups were scattered across the country and would hold meetings with the locals and instead of telling them how great Magyar was, they would ask the electorate specific questions and compile the results.  While Magyar was thus appealing to the electorate – Orban was buffooning his best imitation of Trump. 

His entire campaign thus became a vision based within reality as opposed to fake polls and fake surveys.  Magyar addressed exactly what the people wanted.  His performance as PM has yet to be tested, but we have the opportunity to watch and learn if this is something to mimic in America. To root out the corruption, the liars, to call them out publicly, to force resignations like Swalwell. 

The Tisza Party won a supermajority of two thirds.  His first hurdle is to recover the EU withheld funds of $20 billion due to Orban’s refusals to comply with immigration.  Given Magyar has no intention of complying with immigration quotas established by the EU, this could be a rather burdensome uphill agenda.  In addition, he has not noted a definitive stance on Israel and Palestine.  It is a wait and see.  But the world is shifting and the aging Boomers need to step aside.

The Dollar As Global Reserve Currency is Wobbling Precariously

Posted on by Helena

World Economic Forum:  “Central banks are diversifying their currency reserves, and the development of alternative payment corridors that reduce dependencies on the US dollar are expanding.  Recent analysis by the World Economic Forum estimates that heightened fragmentation could reduce global GDP by up to $5.7 trillion, while also stoking inflation.”

As the Global Reserve Currency, the dollar dominance is directly correlated to perceived safety and security of the government, and the economy in relation to other dominant economies.  Alternative currencies at this stage are not a threat, however, Trump’s Tariffs and Warring have created a wobble.  A wobble in earth’s rotation creates fragmentation, a wobble in the global financial system can create a collapse. 

The wobble began when the Trump Tariffs were announced fracturing global trade and causing China’s yuan to gain some dominance.  While Bitcoin isn’t tied to a country or government, it too gained traction in 2025 in response to Trump’s rhetoric and escalating flip-flops leading to his now rather psychotic behavior.  Trump’s posturing on Iran gave even more traction to China and the wobbling became more frenetic.  The US market is not an indicater of much of anything any longer, as finances are shared between BlackRock, Vanguard and State Street.  Leaving the stage empty except for a single podium and a monologue of pitiful LIES.  Anyone…. Anyone…?

The only country with the courage to mock this hideous Play and give it an F Rating, has been Iran.  The three countries hedging against the dollar include China, Russia and Turkey who have been steadily buying gold in anticipation of a dollar and/or America collapse.  Since 1970, the dollar as a global foreign exchange reserve had dropped by a third before the policies of Trump and the War. 

IF gold became the new reserve currency, America would be forced to reveal the contents of Fort Knox.  The last audit was around 1974 and was considered rather inane given it was simply an invitation for some congressional members to view the vaults.  The last full audit was in 1953 under Eisenhower.  If in fact the vaults are severely depleted as many believe, should gold become the new reserve currency, America is farked.  In July 2025, France requested the return of its $15 billion gold reserves from the US.  It took until January 2026 for the US to comply.

If the dollar lost its place on the throne, America would likely face significantly higher borrowing costs, forcing a choice between tax hikes, debt restructuring, or severe austerity measures.  True inflation would be catastrophic.  As everything that was – is no longer, and the shroud of lies would be forced to speak truth.  A tumbling instead of a wobble.  Something like the collapse of the Soviet Union.   One rather interesting shift would be the removal of economic sanctions with which the US is so gloriously generous.

Currently, over 30 countries and 13,000 individuals are sanctioned by America.  In addition, some 500 entities are sanctioned for human rights offenses and abuses.  That leverage would disappear.  Spain has become the latest country to be expelled from trade by Trump.  These sanctions ride piggy-back on who is holding the golden rod of Global Reserve Currency. 

In 1944 The Bretton Woods system was adopted in which America was appointed the holder of the global currency status because the US controlled two thirds of the global gold.  In 1971, Nixon ended the convertibility of the US dollar to gold and effectively ended the Bretton Woods Agreement.  Thus, the dollar was now simple fiat currency – it’s only backing a pinky swear promise creating floating exchange rates.   Nixon instituted this fiat system to halt a run on U.S. gold reserves by foreign nations, combat inflation, and prevent economic collapse. Massive foreign debt, trade deficits, and high costs from the Vietnam War had crumbled America’s economy.

At the time of Nixon’s decision, the US debt to GDP was 35%, and the DoD budget was $72 billion.  Today the debt to GDP is 125% and likely to grow significantly as the Iran War costs, Venezuela conflict costs, Israeli military costs, and tariffs blow the economy apart, while the Dod Budget is well over $1 Trillion.  Adjusted for inflation, the 1971 Dod $72 Billion budget would be worth roughly $590 Billion or about half the true budget imposed today.

Statistically the numbers are completely out of whack!  Today 60% of the global gold (assuming America isn’t lying) is held by the US, Germany, France, Russia, China, Japan, and Italy.  Not only has the US lost its ranking in GDP and DoD Spending, it no longer has the right to exalt holding 66% of the world’s gold for which status as the ‘Global Currency Reserve’ was framed.  Thus, we are listing heavily on perceptions, illusions, and crystal ball estimations.

BRICS accelerated the use of alternate currencies as did the era of Bitcoin et al.  The Iran war will further this evolution and central banks will sell off treasuries to balance their portfolio risks.  China, Brazil, India, Japan, Sweden and Denmark are selling treasuries while increasing their holding in gold.  The slow reorganization of world powers is gaining significant traction.  IF Trump was pro-America, this would be his focus.  Instead, Trump is literally doing the exact opposite …
