This is a moment in history that we will remember for a long time to come. Even though we were told over and over again that a deal with Iran was almost "finalized", the truth is that there never was going to be a deal with Iran. It was all smoke and mirrors. The U.S. couldn't give Iran what it was demanding, and Iran simply refused to give the U.S.

Jerome Powell is now warning that the Federal Reserve is undergoing a "stress test" and that political interference threatens public confidence in the institution. He stated that "the public would lose faith" if administrations could remove Fed officials over policy disagreements and argued that democratic institutions can be "torn down all too quickly."

There is a strange disconnect developing between financial markets and the average person.
Most people still see the situation with Iran as another distant geopolitical story. It appears on television for a few minutes, disappears behind domestic political news, and then returns a few days later when another headline emerges. Investors, however, are beginning to treat it very differently.

I launched my American Pravda series a decade ago next month. My conscious strategy was quite unusual, being almost exactly the opposite of that followed by nearly everyone else covering those same controversial topics.
As some of them explicitly told me, they had always deliberately avoided exploring too many different and unrelated historical controversies.

Last Thursday, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent confirmed a proposed $250 bill bearing President Donald Trump's face, presenting it as a possible tribute to America's semiquincentennial.
The main obstacle is the law. For now, it bars living people from appearing on U.S. currency. Existing law also does not authorize a $250 Federal Reserve note.

François Villeroy de Galhau, gouverneur de la Banque de France, le 15 avril 2026 lors du sommet Semafor World Economy 2026 à Washington, DC.
Après le recul inattendu de 0,1 % du PIB au premier trimestre, la Banque de France va abaisser mi-juin ses prévisions de croissance pour 2026, initialement fixées à 0,9 %.

Glenn Diesen: Welcome back to the program. We are joined today by Professor Michael Hudson to discuss how the Iran war is affecting the global economy. I heard from some people that while the energy prices are high, that the U.S. could actually benefit from this because then they would have to pay more money for American energy. This would also mean that they would have to pay in dollars, so it would strengthen the petrodollar.

At first, Europe was doing this by replacing its lowest-cost source of energy, Russia, by America, which is over twice as expensive. (Instead of relying mainly on natural gas pipelined-in from Russia, they now are relying mainly on liquefied natural gas - LNG - that's compressed, canned, and cross-Atlantic-shipped, and then sent by rail or truck, all from America's Gulf Coast ports, 3,000+ miles away.) But, now, Europe's leaders are determined to replace also their cheapest sources of manufactured goods, China, by, instead, America, which is economically uncompetitive with China.

"Trump est en train d'épuiser rapidement les réserves stratégiques de pétrole des États-Unis et, en manipulant les prix du marché, il prévient l'effondrement de la demande, accélérant ainsi la crise économique américaine.

Certains me font marrer. Ils parlent d'effondrement en disant que ça ne change rien, qu'on a des effondrements tous les 7 ans, et que ça repart. En fait, non.
Ce dont il est question, c'est l'effondrement de certains segments financiers, industriels ou commerciaux, chose qu'il est possible de replâtrer en utilisant des choses connues comme l'impression monétaire.
En France, l'inflation progresse encore au mois de mai, à 2,4 %, tandis que la croissance a finalement été négative au premier trimestre, selon l'Insee. Le gouvernement a acté le gel ou l'annulation de 4 milliards d'euros de crédits.
L'inflation continue sa progression. Au mois de mai, l'indice des prix à la consommation a progressé de 2,4 % sur douze mois glissants, contre 2,2 % en avril, selon les chiffres publiés par l'Institut national de la statistique et des études économiques de la France (Insee) ce vendredi 29 mai.

Dans une déclaration commune publiée le 29 mai, les quatre grandes institutions internationales tirent la sonnette d'alarme. Selon elles, la guerre déclenchée par les États-Unis et Israël contre l'Iran provoque une chute record des réserves de pétrole et menace de déstabiliser durablement l'économie mondiale à l'approche de l'été.

On Tuesday, Peter appeared on Kiko News to warn that markets and the public are underestimating how costly the United States' borrowing binge will become. He walks through bond market complacency, rising consumer inflation expectations, the danger that foreign creditors may stop funding the deficit, and how politics has dulled fiscal accountability. He also points to a technical breakout in sound money assets, and he cautions that price controls will only make a bad problem worse.

The US debt surpassed $31.27 trillion, exceeding the country's $31.22 trillion in GDP. This represents a debt-to-GDP ratio of 100.2%, according to data from the Bureau of Economic Analysis, compiled by the Committee on a Responsible Federal Budget and released in April. This level is well above the historical average.

Depuis 2008, la Réserve fédérale américaine n'a pas seulement changé d'échelle : elle a changé de rôle. Son bilan a explosé, ses taux sont devenus un outil de stabilisation permanente, et son intervention dans le financement implicite du système financier comme de l'État fédéral s'est profondément élargie. Derrière le discours technique des banques centrales, une réalité beaucoup plus politique apparaît : la Fed ne se contente plus de piloter l'inflation ou l'emploi, elle empêche désormais le système tout entier de décrocher.
