The animating reason behind all the moves (it's not Israel)

This article best sums up what I believe is going on. The article is a long-ish read, but was worth it to me. A few excerpts below that give the larger points.

“U.S. President Donald Trump’s second term is not just another burst of tariff theatre; it is the opening move in a new great game over energy, artificial intelligence (AI), and money.”

“Call it Bretton Woods 2.0: eliminate BRICS as a monetary project, re-anchor oil in dollars, and hardwire a new U.S. dollar-centred digital payments rail—with gold and bitcoin as anchors to that world, not as exhibits in the case for American decline.”

“The New Great Game is between the U.S. and China, and it is being fought over sea lanes, data centres, and payment systems rather than khanates and caravan routes.”

“Bretton Woods 2.0 will not be unveiled in a New Hampshire resort. It will come disguised as a string of crises, sanctions packages, and software upgrades—and only later be recognized as a new iteration of an old order.”

Them.

Unless the dollar is again tied to a commodity like gold and silver, its days are numbered. The era of inflation and totally unchecked spending started in the 1970s with the closing of the gold window. We’ve been spiraling out of control ever since.

The greatest trick Israel ever pulled was to make the world believe that THEY weren't behind everything.
All jokes a side. I don't like how much influence Israel has over Washington. I don't like how anyone who questions that influence is labeled antisemitic. I also don't like how people try to act like Trump doesn't have any agency. Trump is either labeled a puppet of Putin or Netanyahu. It's absurd.

The fed is by no means perfect, but does anyone know why the fed came into existence?
Its because we were bankrput and and JP Morgan bailed us out, twice. JP Moran was manipulating gold the first time we went insolvent and our own securities the second time.
Imagine a life without the fed and Jamie Dimon controlling US economy. Be careful what you wish for.
Course JP does have one of my favorite quotes.
"In life there is always the good reason and the real reason"
A simple example, voter ID is racist.......I want to be able to harvest votes and fill them out myself.

I appreciate the historical references.

Now this is the type of reasoned look at the situation that is sadly lacking around here.

Global economic growth is tied to energy availability.
The world’s global economies are cleaving into two distinct groups. Those that are pursuing green energy objectives ( WEF climate change agenda ) … and those that continue a petroleum based economy. (lower cost, greater availability)
The green energy countries will become subservient to the petroleum based bloc …. and it isn’t hard to understand why. But these green countries are not accustomed to living a subservient lifestyle.
Obama and Biden embraced the WEF initiatives … to the detriment of the US economic structure. The BRICS+ and traditional energy development nations are gaining geopolitical influence because they didn’t fall for the carbon tax nonsense, instead using it to their economic advantage.
This is what Trump is battling to correct, IMO.
