$40tn debt: U.s. unhinged empire is a threat to world peace

The U.S. debt crisis is a legacy of endless war. It is also a harbinger of future wars.

The United States hit a dubious milestone this week, announcing that its national debt had exceeded $40 trillion. No other nation comes close to this level of absolute financial indebtedness.

This is not simply a matter of out-of-control financial bankruptcy. It is an ominous sign of an unhinged empire that is desperately trying to salvage its historic failure by scorched-earth tactics of endless war.

Can the World Survive Putin's Well Intentioned Mistake ?

Death Can Be the Unintended Consequence of Good Intentions  

By Paul Craig Roberts

August 22, 2026

Yesterday on Canadian Prepper Nate and I discussed the dangers in Putin's patience with an ever-widening war and the puzzle that Putin prefers the risk of these dangers to quickly winning the war.

There is no question that the war has greatly widened. The first widening of the war occurred from the increase in capability of the weapons supplied by the West to the West's Ukrainian proxy.

Alan Greenspan's Off-Key Legacy

August 22, 2026

I soon realized that there was a limit to how far I could rise in the music business, so I left the band and enrolled at New York University. - Alan Greenspan

When asked why he robbed banks, Willie Sutton reportedly said, "Because that's where the money is."

That wasn't necessarily a wisecrack, and Sutton denied having said it, though late in life he admitted if he had been asked, that likely would be his reply.

"Is there any point in public debate in a society where hardly anyone has been taught how to think, while millions have been taught what to think?"

~ Peter Hitchens

One wonders how we got to where we are today; a society of non-critical thinkers, non-thinkers period, relying on the State as if a parent or god, fully dependent on this failed system of corruption, indoctrination, and control over every aspect of life.

Some shattering illusions of our declining empire

Americans are waking up to ugly truths.

By George D. O'Neill Jr.

Now that the lofty 250th-anniversary rhetoric about the greatness of our country has faded, it is time to face the reality of our country's actual behavior. The U.S. fashions itself as a generous and benevolent world leader enforcing the "rules-based order"-a deceptive construct used by globalist elites to bully other countries.

How Trump used foreign policy to destroy the U.s. economy

Martin Jay

With U.S. debt surpassing GDP and de-dollarization accelerating, Trump's second term is destroying the economy he promised to save.

In May of this year, America's debt surpassed its GDP - something that hasn't happened since WWII. This phenomenon has divided economists into two camps. One, which is disturbed by the trend, and the second, which shrugs it off and attributes it to a new global norm which shows America is still a global power and can use its strength to borrow from the rest.

 Trump veut asphyxier l'économie iranienne, mais se heurte au défi chinois

Sanctions « les plus dures de l'histoire » contre l'Iran : les États-Unis traitent l'échec par l'échec

par Al-Manar

Les États-Unis ont transféré le poids de la confrontation avec l'Iran sur le front économique, en annonçant ce qu'ils ont qualifié de sanctions "les plus dures de l'histoire", parallèlement à la poursuite du blocus maritime et au renforcement du déploiement militaire américain dans la région.

Alors que Washington parie sur l'asphyxie de l'économie iranienne et pousse Téhéran à modifier ses calculs de négociation, cette dernière a répondu en affirmant que la pression n'a pas atteint ses objectifs, tout en laissant entendre qu'une nouvelle phase militaire verra l'utilisation d'"armes plus destructrices".

Un nouveau scandale ébranle la Maison Blanche

par International Reporters

Des relations très étranges entre Trump et sa plus proche collaboratrice, Natalie Harp, sont apparues au premier plan. La secrétaire blonde de 35 ans adore littéralement le président américain et exécute tous ses ordres avec un zèle servile.

Politologue Malek Dudakov :

Harp a travaillé dans les médias conservateurs avant de rejoindre l'entourage de Trump.

Last week, I wrote to you about the operation in which the United States and Japan went into the currency market together to prop up the falling yen, the first coordinated action of its kind since 1998.

Japan reportedly put in around $75 billion of its dollar reserves.

Modern technology has provided government with growing capability to monitor our lives. The amount of freedom in a "free American" is slowly being reduced to nothing. Flock cameras are one such freedom-destroying tool.

This article referenced below about police misuse and incompetent use of Flock surveillance cameras should scare you to death.

The New Charlie...

By Eric Peters
Eric Peters Autos  

August 21, 2026

It is coming up on a year since Charlie Kirk was assassinated - the right word, since this was not merely a murder. We do not use "assassination" to describe ordinary murders, as for example when a thug breaks into someone's home and murders the people within. Assassination are done for political reasons, not economic reasons.

Charlie Kirk did not hold any office but he was the leader of a movement and - had he not been assassinated - it is very possible he might have run for office (and won).

Living in Dark Times

By John J. Mearsheimer
John's Substack  

August 21, 2026

On 18 August 2026, I was on "Judging Freedom" talking with the Judge about the Iran war, Israel's never-ending outrageous behavior, the Ukraine war, and President Trump's increasingly erratic behavior, all thoroughly depressing subjects. Given that 1) Trump is destined to suffer a devastating defeat in Iran, 2) Ukraine & the West are almost certain to lose the Ukraine war, and 3) he has no hope of getting the Israelis to accept his peace plan for Gaza, it seems likely that Trump's behavior will become even more erratic in the months ahead.

They're Getting Revenge, Starting Today

By Tom Woods  

August 21, 2026

From the Tom Woods Letter:

I absolutely insist to you: I really am trying to stop writing about this topic. But too much insanity keeps breaking out, and I have no choice but to comment on it.

You know the story: a Cambridge academic, Jason Arday, was found to have plagiarized his dissertation, borrowed heavily from others in his published articles, produced essentially worthless research, called the police on a reporter and on a professor who asked questions about his resume, invented wild tales of athletic and academic achievement as well as philanthropic work, and (of course) accused his critics of "racism." And then, late last week, he was found dead at his home in an apparent suicide.

Pentagon drafting new nuclear strategy to expand options for tactical nuclear weapons use

The strategy is being overseen by Elbridge Colby, the Pentagon's policy chief, who has long called for the US to prepare to fight a "limited nuclear war"

The Pentagon is reportedly drafting a new nuclear strategy that's expected to emphasize the use of tactical nuclear weapons to give the president more "options" in a potential nuclear conflict.

The strategy, first reported by NBC News, is being drafted by the Pentagon's policy chief, Elbridge Colby, who has for more than a decade called for the US to develop additional capabilities to fight a "limited nuclear war."

Elections en Floride et Californie : deux gifles pour le lobby israélien

Après la victoire d'Abdul El-Sayed dans le Michigan, un nouveau revers pour le lobby pro-Israël est annoncé en Floride et en Californie.

En Floride, Angie Nixon, une candidate ayant fermement condamné le génocide perpétré par Israël à Gaza, a remporté l'investiture démocrate pour le Sénat américain.

En Californie, Aisha Wahab a conservé une courte avance lors de la primaire démocrate, malgré les millions de dollars dépensés par des groupes pro-Israël pour s'opposer à elle.
