If you're looking for evidence that the U.S. economy in 2026 is being held up by a clown-car of financial chicanery far beyond anything the C-Suite at Enron imagined, look no further than Digital Asset Treasury companies, which are themselves a grift built on a grift, claiming to stabilize their own finances by purchasing stock… of each other.

[Ted Trainer] Hickel's critics makes two major points, one of which I disagree with but the other is in my opinion correct and important.

A recent* report from the US Senate says this about climate change and finance:

"...resulting in ever-scarcer insurance and ever-higher premiums. This is predicted to cascade into plunging property values...a collapse in property values with the potential to trigger a full-scale financial crisis similar to what occurred in 2008"

*recent but prior to the LA Fires.

Dave Troy @davetroy: “Pay attention to this clip from Nov 20, 2021 where Flynn telegraphs the plan: create a financial collapse, blame the Dems. They postponed this from Dec 2021 until now. This is what today's "debt ceiling" situation is about, re: McCarthy and the gang of House traitors.” https://twitter.com/ronfilipkowski/status/1462165511157030915?s=61&t=j8oGtfgEzEK2tqtWGSBR6w #Flynn #DebtCeiling #FinancialCollapse #Extremism #Accelerationism

“Michael Flynn says Democrats are plotting to cancel the 2022 elections to seize control of the national govt. He says they are intentionally orchestrating a controlled financial collapse of the American economy so they can enact strict govt control of every aspect society.”
