We discuss the assassination of Charlie Kirk and its potential role as a catalyst of further violence and blowback by right-wing forces who want to avenge a martyr, by left-wing groups who want to kick off years of lead, or perhaps as simply another immense yet ephemeral moment in a strange world where “our whole life is surrounded by an immense accumulation of spectacles.” Then we segue expertly to talking about a new essay on “the weaponized world economy,” which adds great detail and depth to our analysis of the geoeconomic dynamics and conflicts that drive global politics, markets, finance and technology. ••• What We Know About the Hyundai-LG Plant Immigration Raid in Georgia https://www.nytimes.com/2025/09/07/us/politics/hyundai-plant-immigration-raid-georgia.html ••• The Weaponized World Economy https://www.foreignaffairs.com/united-states/weaponized-world-economy-farrell-newman ••• BRICS in 2025 https://www.phenomenalworld.org/analysis/brics-in-2025/ Standing Plugs: ••• Order Jathan's new book: https://www.ucpress.edu/book/9780520398078/the-mechanic-and-the-luddite ••• Subscribe to Ed's substack: https://substack.com/@thetechbubble ••• Subscribe to TMK on patreon for premium episodes: https://www.patreon.com/thismachinekills Hosted by Jathan Sadowski (bsky.app/profile/jathansadowski.com) and Edward Ongweso Jr. (www.x.com/bigblackjacobin).

Antonio Balmer explains the relative decline of US imperialism and the strengthening of BRICS

Silver prices have surged due to a confluence of factors, including geopolitical tensions, a weakening dollar, and anticipated Fed rate cuts. A persistent supply deficit, driven by robust industrial demand from solar, EVs, and advanced electronics, further fuels the rally. With potential U.S. stockpiling on the horizon, silver's bullish momentum is expected to continue, targeting key resistance levels.~This episode is sponsored by iTrust Capital~iTrustCapital | Get $100 Funding Reward + No Monthly Fees when you sign up using our custom link! ➜ https://bit.ly/iTrustPaulGuest: Andy Schectman | President & Owner of Miles Franklin Miles Franklin website ➜ https://milesfranklin.com/Miles Franklin Youtube channel ➜ https://www.youtube.com/@MilesFranklinMedia00:00 Intro00:10 Sponsor: iTrust Capital00:40 45-year mother of all cup and handles01:25 Silver demand for EV's & Solar02:45 Gold/Silver ratio08:30 Real market cap potential of silver?14:00 Silver DeFi potential17:40 Silver breaks $50 in 2025?19:20 Rate cut a huge mistake?21:15 Will Silver flip NVIDIA?23:45 Time to sell Bitcoin/gold for Ethereum/silver?25:00 Outro#Crypto #Silver #Ethereum~Ethereum Igniting 45-Year BREAKOUT on Silver!!!

What BRICS Are REALLY Planning With Gold There's been less attention around the BRICS and their de-dollarization plans this year as Trump and the tariff policies have taken center stage. But that doesn't mean things aren't moving in the background, and the ultimate underlying question is, what are the BRICS really planning to do with gold?

01:00:42 – Opening & 9/11 UpdatesThe show opens by marking September 11, 2025, with reflections on 9/11 anniversaries and pivots immediately to breaking news: the assassination of Charlie Kirk and NATO's escalations in Europe. 01:02:09 – Charlie Kirk's Murder & Free SpeechDiscussion on the killing of Charlie Kirk, focusing on his young family, his role in encouraging open debate on campuses, and how his assassination reflects the dangers of a violent culture that equates speech with violence. 01:17:00 – Media's Reaction to Kirk ShootingAnalysis of MSNBC's coverage, accused of exploiting Kirk's assassination for partisan narratives, contrasted with CNN and Fox News' restrained reporting. Media bias and political exploitation of violence are central themes. 01:27:00 – Rising Political ViolenceA segment on the “Fourth Turning” cycle: five assassination attempts within a year, including Kirk, Trump, and others. The speakers warn this trend reflects America's descent into normalized political violence and deepening civil conflict. 01:50:07 – NATO Drone Crisis & War PushFocus shifts to Poland and NATO, with claims that Prime Minister Donald Tusk is using stray Russian drones as a pretext to escalate toward World War III. Parallels are drawn to Syria and false-flag provocations. 02:08:45 – New World Order & Health CrisisEuropean Commission's Ursula von der Leyen is quoted warning of a looming global health crisis, framed as another opportunity to centralize power. The hosts tie this rhetoric to broader themes of globalism, technocracy, and “New World Order” ambitions. 02:14:17 – Shooter Linked to Radical LeftReports suggest the Charlie Kirk assassin was a college-aged radical, with universities described as “Marxist seminaries” fueling violent ideology. 02:18:41 – Civil War TrapWarnings that both parties are pushing Americans toward a civil war, which would bring mass death and government crackdowns, just as after the first Civil War. 02:24:24 – Tucker Carlson's 9/11 Cover-UpCarlson's upcoming 9/11 documentary is blasted as controlled opposition. He's accused of hiding Building 7 evidence and running CIA-style propaganda. 02:29:23 – Israeli Foreknowledge of 9/11FBI reports of “Israeli art students” surveilling U.S. sites and filming the attacks are examined, with claims U.S. intelligence may have used Israel as cover. 02:35:14 – Gold vs. Fake EconomyTony Arterburn joins to show how gold is the “real stablecoin” amid fake job reports, manipulated markets, and central bank hoarding. 02:56:48 – CBDC Trojan Horse: The GENIUS ActThe new Genius Act is framed as a backdoor to eliminate cash, wipe out small banks, and impose full surveillance through stablecoins. 03:17:29 – Trump's Tariff DelusionTariffs are framed as taxes that make nations poorer, not richer. Trump is blasted for adopting economic policies resembling “third world” countries while claiming they'll bring investment. 03:23:01 – America's Declining Trade FreedomDiscussion of how the U.S. fell from 8th to 53rd place in global trade freedom rankings. Tariffs and capital controls are shown as barriers that punish Americans while eroding prosperity. 03:27:33 – Tariffs Destroying Small BusinessReal-world examples highlight how tariffs cripple industries like guitar-making and surfboards by driving up costs of foreign materials. Trump and Peter Navarro are ridiculed for boneheaded, short-sighted trade policy. 03:32:01 – Trump Hypocrisy on Free SpeechTrump is accused of hollow rhetoric after praising Charlie Kirk's “free speech,” while simultaneously cracking down on students protesting Gaza. His response to the shooting is dismissed as political theater. 03:34:27 – Mossad & 9/11 OperationsConversation shifts to Israeli involvement in 9/11, citing “Israeli art students,” Mossad-linked moving companies, and Marvin Bush's security contracts at the Trade Towers. The U.S.-Israel connection is framed as deep and corrupt. 03:52:36 – Epstein, Banks & the GOP Cover-UpThe Epstein scandal is revisited, with J.P. Morgan, Ken Starr, and Bill Gates implicated in protecting pedophiles. Trump, Mike Johnson, and the GOP are accused of aiding cover-ups to protect elites.

During the 15th annual BRICS summit in Johannesburg in 2023, the South African President Cyril Ramaphosa announced that 6 new member countries would be joining the bloc in 2024.  Historically composed by Brazil, Russia, India and China, the BRICS countries control a significant amount of natural resources, making it a key actor in the world. They started to organize summits as an intergovernmental organisation in 2009 and the annual summits have taken place ever since.  But if they are already so powerful, why are they expanding? Which countries have joined? And what are the goals behind that? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

It's Tuesday, September 9th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson Nigerian Muslims kill and injure Christian farmers On August 27th, when five Nigerian Christians went to check on their farms  located in Bauchi State, they found Fulani Muslim herdsmen grazing their cattle on the land owned by the Christians.  The argument led to the Muslims killing a Christian farmer and wounding three others, reports Morning Star News. Rev. Samson Habila, local chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria, said, “We solicit that we all go on our knees for prayers to our loving God to bring this conflict to a swift end for the betterment of our land and people.” In a separate incident on the same day, Muslim herdsmen assaulted two Christian women and a teenager who were on their way back from their farm. Naomi Sabo, was cut on her hand with a machete, her teenage son was cut with a machete, and a third victim, another Christian woman, had her ear cut off by the Muslims. In a span of two weeks in late August, hundreds of Nigerian Christian farmers lost their crops to Muslim Fulani herdsmen who took their cattle to graze on them. According to Open Doors' 2025 World Watch List, Nigeria is the 7th most dangerous country on Earth for Christians. Of the 4,476 Christians killed for their faith worldwide during the reporting period, 3,100 of those Christians -- or 69% -- lived in Nigeria. Russia launched 800 drones against Ukraine Russia has stepped up its drone attacks on Ukraine, in its largest salvo since the beginning of the war, reports KGOU Radio. The aggressor launched 800 drones over the weekend — hitting the government building in Kyiv for the first time. Japanese Prime Minister resigns Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba has announced his resignation.   Japan's economy is still hurting. The nation's real Gross Domestic Product is just now recovering to 2019 levels, after an extended 5-year recession. Japan's national debt is the highest in the world, at 255% of GDP.   The Japanese government's proposed budget for 2026 represents another 8% increase, year over year.  Indeed, 27% of the budget is set aside just to service the nation's debt. G7 vs BRICS The Group of 7 or “G7” nations includes Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States.  BRICS is now recognized as the competing force opposing the G7 nations. BRICS includes Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Egypt, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Iran, and the United Arab Emirates. In a BRICS summit, spearheaded by Brazil's socialist president, Luiz Lula, the mostly southern and eastern world powers worked on what they called “joint responses to tariffs and sanctions under the Trump administration and discussions on a multipolar world order.” Thousands of Brazilian protestors object to trial of Jair Bolsonaro Tens of thousands of Brazilians have taken the streets over in the last week, protesting the trial of Brazil's former president, Jair Bolsonaro, reports the Associated Press. He is facing 46 years in prison for allegedly supporting an attempt to overturn the 2022 election. Plus, Bolsonaro's opponents also claim that he encouraged a protest on January 8, 2023 that resulted in several millions of dollars of damage to the capital building. Brazil's Supreme Court is expecting to sentence the former president later this week. Bolsonaro was a pro-life president, and opposed homosexual marriage for his country. The current president, Luiz Lula, has committed himself to the pro-abortion and LGBTQ agenda for the nation since his election in 2022. 47% of Brazilians receive welfare In a related story, 47% of Brazilians receive a welfare check from the government. The most welfare dependent states are in the north and northeast of the country. These twelve states record more welfare recipients than jobs among their residents. The socialist candidate in the last election, Lula de Silva, won 10 out of 12 of these states. He only won the votes with three other states in the election. God is sovereign over all. Jesus told Pontius Pilate, “You would have no authority over Me at all unless it had been given you from above.” Company that profits from porn fined $5 million The Canadian company Aylo has been fined $5 million by the US Federal Trade Commission for portraying certain egregious forms of sexual sin on its websites (which include PornHub).   This amounts to a slap on the wrist for a company operating on an estimated $700 million of annual income. That's about 0.7%. The Federal Trade Commission has charged the company with allowing non-consensual and child-abuse related material on its websites. Democrats blocking all Trump's civilian nominees The U.S. government has come to loggerheads. Thus far, not a single Trump civilian nominee has been confirmed by a voice vote through the US Senate — due to Democrat filibusters. That's the first time this has occurred in the nation's government in a century. That compares to 65% of Trump's nominees clearing the Senate by voice vote in his first term and 57% of Joe Biden's nominees confirmed by voice vote.   GOP Senate Majority Leader John Thune is considering pulling the nuclear option, or a rule change, to speed up the approval process, according to the Daily Caller. Few Americans, Christians included, believe we are sinful American Christians are pretty much agreed on this statement: “Sin is real, but people are basically good at heart.” That according to the latest George Barna survey. The pollsters discovered that 82% of Catholics and 70% of self-identified born-again Christians believe in “The basic goodness of humanity.” And only 57% of Catholics and 85% of self-identified born again Christians believe Romans 3:23 — that “All have sinned and come short of the glory of God.”  Meryl Streep to voice Aslan in new “Chronicles of Narnia” And finally, Netflix plans to release the next movie installment of C.S. Lewis' Chronicles of Narnia story in November of 2026. Filming began last month which included a well-publicized street chase of Jadis, “the White Witch” last weekend. Brace yourself. Greta Gerwig, best known for directing the feminist hit film “Barbie” released in 2023, is directing this next Narnia release. Not surprisingly, Meryl Streep is slated to voice Aslan.  (The character of Aslan, Lewis's Lion, is meant as a personification of Jesus Christ).

Two sharply contrasting foreign policy visions emerged this week from China and the United States. In Beijing, President Xi Jinping outlined an agenda in talks with fellow BRICS leaders that directly challenged Donald Trump's “America First” doctrine, urging instead for stronger multilateral cooperation. Meanwhile in Washington, reports surfaced of a potential overhaul in U.S. security strategy, shifting the Pentagon's focus away from countering China abroad toward reinforcing defenses at home and across the Western Hemisphere. No other region around the world has as much at stake in this duel as Southeast Asia, effectively the frontline in the simmering great power rivalry. Dylan Loh, an associate professor at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore and a leading expert on Chinese foreign policy, joins Eric to discuss how Southeast Asian policymakers are responding to the mounting pressure coming from both Washington and Beijing.

President Xi Jinping has called on the BRICS countries to jointly defend multilateralism and the multilateral trading system and advance greater BRICS cooperation, as trade and tariff wars waged by a certain country severely disrupt the world economy and undermine international trade rules.Xi made the remarks while participating in a virtual BRICS Summit from Beijing on Monday. He was joined by other leaders including Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, Russian President Vladimir Putin and South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, as well as leaders from Egypt, Iran, Indonesia and the United Arab Emirates, and representatives from India and Ethiopia.Xi described BRICS countries as the forefront of the Global South amid rampant hegemonism, unilateralism and protectionism, saying that this is a critical juncture for them to act on the BRICS Spirit of openness, inclusiveness and win-win cooperation.Originally comprising Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa, BRICS has developed into a group of 11 full member countries and 10 partner countries.The BRICS cooperation mechanism is now considered to be an important platform for solidarity and cooperation among emerging markets and developing countries.Xi called for upholding multilateralism to defend international fairness and justice."History tells us that multilateralism is the shared aspiration of the people and the overarching trend of our times. It provides an important underpinning for world peace and development," he said, noting that the Global Governance Initiative that he recently proposed is aimed at galvanizing joint global action for a more just and equitable global governance system."We should follow the principle of extensive consultation and joint contribution for shared benefit, and safeguard the international system with the United Nations at its core and the international order based on international law, so as to cement the foundations of multilateralism," Xi said.He also called for efforts to actively promote greater democracy in international relations and increase the representation and voice of Global South countries."We should improve the global governance system through reform so as to fully mobilize resources from all quarters and tackle more effectively the common challenges for humanity," Xi said.Noting that economic globalization is an irresistible trend of history, Xi stressed the need to uphold openness and win-win cooperation to safeguard the international economic and trade order.Countries cannot thrive without an international environment of open cooperation, and no country can afford to retreat into self-imposed isolation, he said."No matter how the international landscape may evolve, we must stay committed to building an open global economy, so as to share opportunities and achieve win-win outcomes in openness," Xi said, calling for efforts to oppose all forms of protectionism."We should promote a universally beneficial and inclusive economic globalization, place development at the heart of our international agenda, and ensure that Global South countries participate in international cooperation as equals and share in the fruits of development," he said.The Chinese president also emphasized the importance of BRICS countries managing their own affairs well in order to cope with external challenges.Accounting for nearly half of the world's population, around 30 percent of global economic output and one-fifth of global trade, the BRICS countries are also home to major natural resources, big manufacturers and vast markets, Xi said."The more closely we work together, the more resilient, resourceful and effective we are in addressing external risks and challenges," he said, expressing China's readiness to work with fellow BRICS countries to implement the Global Development Initiative and advance high-quality Belt and Road cooperation.He also encouraged BRICS countries to leverage their respective strengths, deepen practical cooperation and produce more outcomes in such areas as trade and the economy, finance, science and technology, in order to deliver more practical benefits to their peoples.

Something big is happening and the BRICS nations are holding an emergency meeting right now in Brazil to deal with it. Russian President Putin and China's Xi Jin Ping are attending this meeting and the focus we're told is the BRICS response to Trumps tariffs and sanctions and most importantly the threat to their new multipolar order. Remember just last week in China Putin, Modi and Xi layed out their new plans for a multipolar world order. They're basically done with the US dollar, the SWIFT system, and much more. 

Podcast Summary Carlos Garrido took a leap of faith in 2009, leaving behind the bustling world of finance in England to embrace the vibrant opportunities of Miami, Florida. His journey wasn't just about navigating new landscapes but also about mastering a language and culture that were foreign at first. Encouraged by his brother, Carlos transitioned into entrepreneurship, carrying with him the Sandler principles that had already begun to shape his perspective on personal and professional success. His story illuminates the profound impact of perseverance and connection, emphasizing how these tools helped him overcome the daunting challenges of starting anew. The definition of success is ever-evolving, and today more than ever, it transcends mere financial gain. We explore how iconic figures like Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg reflect a modern ethos that prioritizes health and time freedom over ostentatious wealth. Carlos shares his enlightening experience with the 75 Hard program, a grueling yet transformative regimen that reshaped his approach to mental toughness and personal growth. This personal narrative highlights the shift from external validation to intrinsic self-worth, encouraging listeners to question deeply ingrained beliefs about success and identity. The episode rounds out with a discussion on achieving a balanced life, where both health and business aspirations find harmony. Through holistic practices such as Stoicism, journaling, and meditation, Carlos has redefined his views on masculinity and success. The integration of new fitness techniques and dietary changes, shared with family members, serves as a testament to the power of personal transformation. Amidst life's inevitable setbacks, the commitment to ongoing development remains unwavering, painting a picture of a life where professional achievements and personal well-being coexist, driving toward a future of holistic success and fulfillment. (00:02) Journey to Success Through Sandler Principles (16:43) The Mental Toughness of Success (21:06) Transformation Through Fitness and Business (37:08) Balancing Health and Business Success (00:02) Journey to Success Through Sandler Principles This chapter features a conversation with Carlos Garrido, a Sandler trainer from Miami, Florida, who shares his personal and professional journey. Originally from Manchester, England, Carlos discusses his multicultural background with a Greek mother and a Spanish father, and his initial career in finance and investment banking. He explains how he relocated to Miami in 2009 to lead business development and M&A activities in Latin America, a move that was prompted by the global emphasis on BRICS strategies. Despite not speaking Spanish initially, Carlos embraced the challenge and fell in love with Miami and the United States, eventually becoming an American citizen. He recounts how he transitioned from finance to starting his own business in Miami, with encouragement from his brother who was a Sandler client. The chapter highlights the importance of perseverance and connection in overcoming the initial challenges of entrepreneurship. (16:43) The Mental Toughness of Success This chapter explores the evolving notion of what signifies success and wealth, contrasting the 1980s' flashy displays with today's emphasis on physical health and time freedom. We examine how modern entrepreneurs prioritize fitness, highlighting billionaires like Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg as examples of this shift. The conversation then transitions into a personal narrative about discovering and undertaking the 75 Hard program, a regimen aimed at mental toughness that also results in improved health. Initially resistant, I recount how repeated encounters with the program's concept, through friends and YouTube videos featuring its creator Andy Frazella, led to a transformative mindset shift. This experience underscores the importance of discipline, time management, and mental resilience in achieving personal growth. (21:06) Transformation Through Fitness and Business This chapter examines the journey of committing to a demanding 75-day program that requires daily dedication and challenges one's personal beliefs and identity. We explore how embarking on this journey required reevaluating what success means, questioning ingrained beliefs about roles as a man, father, and husband, and prioritizing personal health over economic achievements. Through self-reflection, the importance of self-concept in achieving success, especially in business and sales, is highlighted, emphasizing that one's self-worth is not solely tied to financial accomplishments. The transformative process includes overcoming cynicism and shifting the focus from external validation to an intrinsic sense of self-worth and personal value. This narrative illustrates the profound impact of challenging and reshaping one's identity and beliefs on personal growth and fulfillment.

The journey is one of balancing professional achievements with personal health and family life, sharing the challenges and rewards of weight loss and strength training, particularly in partnership with family members. Despite setbacks, the commitment to ongoing development remains steadfast, aiming for holistic success and well-being.    

On this episode of Crazy Wisdom, Stewart Alsop sits down with Abhimanyu Dayal, a longtime Bitcoin advocate and AI practitioner, to explore how money, identity, and power are shifting in a world of deepfakes, surveillance, automation, and geopolitical realignment. The conversation ranges from why self-custody of Bitcoin matters more than ETFs, to the dangers of probabilistic biometrics and face-swap apps, to the coming impact of AGI on labor markets and the role of universal basic income. They also touch on India's refinery economy, its balancing act between Russia, China, and the U.S., and how soft power is eroding in the information age. For more from Abhimanyu, connect with him on LinkedIn.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 Stewart Alsop opens with Abhimanyu Dayal on crypto, AI, and the risks of probabilistic biometrics like facial recognition and voice spoofing.05:00 They critique biometric surveillance, face-swap apps, and data exploitation through casual consent.10:00 The talk shifts to QR code treasure hunts, vibe coding on Replit and Claude, and using quizzes to mint NFTs.15:00 Abhimanyu shares his finance background, tying it to Bitcoin as people's money, agent-to-agent payments, and post-AGI labor shifts.20:00 They discuss universal basic income, libertarian ideals, Hayek's view of economics as critique, and how AI prediction changes policy.25:00 Pressure, unpredictability, AR glasses, quantum computing, and the surveillance state future come into focus.30:00 Open source vs closed apps, China's DeepSeek models, propaganda through AI, and U.S.–China tensions are explored.35:00 India's non-alignment, Soviet alliance in 1971, oil refining economy, and U.S.–India friction surface.40:00 They reflect on colonial history, East India Company, wealth drain, opium wars, and America's rise on Indian capital.45:00 The conversation closes on Bitcoin's role as reserve asset, stablecoins as U.S. leverage, BRICS disunity, and the geopolitics of freedom.Key InsightsA central theme of the conversation is the contrast between deterministic and probabilistic systems for identity and security. Abhimanyu Dayal stresses that passwords and private keys—things only you can know—are inherently more secure than facial recognition or voice scans, which can be spoofed through deepfakes, 3D prints, or AI reconstructions. In his view, biometric data should never be stored because it represents a permanent risk once leaked.The rise of face-swap apps and casual facial data sharing illustrates how surveillance and exploitation have crept into everyday life. Abhimanyu points out that companies already use online images to adjust things like insurance premiums, proving how small pieces of biometric consent can spiral into systemic manipulation. This isn't a hypothetical future—it is already happening in hidden ways.On the lighter side, they experiment with “vibe coding,” using tools like Replit and Claude to design interactive experiences such as a treasure hunt via QR codes and NFTs. This playful example underscores a broader point: lightweight coding and AI platforms empower individuals to create experiments without relying on centralized or closed systems that might inject malware or capture data.The discussion expands into automation, multi-agent systems, and the post-AGI economy. Abhimanyu suggests that artificial superintelligence will require machine-to-machine transactions, making Bitcoin an essential tool. But if machines do the bulk of labor, universal basic income may become unavoidable, even if it drifts toward collectivist structures libertarians dislike.A key shift identified is the transformation of economics itself. Where Hayek once argued economics should critique politicians because of limited data, AI and quantum computing now provide prediction capabilities so granular that human behavior is forecastable at the individual level. This erodes the pseudoscientific nature of past economics and creates a new landscape of policy and control.Geopolitically, the episode explores India's rise, its reliance on refining Russian crude into petroleum exports, and its effort to stay unaligned between the U.S., Russia, and China. The conversation recalls India's Soviet ties during the 1971 war, while noting how today's energy and trade policies underpin domestic improvements for India's poor and middle class.Finally, they critique the co-optation of Bitcoin through ETFs and institutional custody. While investors celebrate, Abhimanyu argues this betrays Satoshi's vision of money controlled by individuals with private keys. He warns that Bitcoin may be absorbed into central bank reserves, while stablecoins extend U.S. monetary dominance by reinforcing dollar power rather than replacing it.

In this episode of The Voices of War, I speak with Dr Samir Puri—former British diplomat, Senior Fellow at King's College London, and author of Westlessness: The Great Global Rebalancing—to explore the seismic global shift away from Western dominance. We unpack the concept of “Westlessness”, which Dr Puri defines as the psychological and strategic unravelling of the West's central role in global affairs. As traditional Western powers lose their edge—militarily, economically, and morally—new global actors like China, India, and coalitions like BRICS and the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) are stepping in to reshape the international system. But this isn't a story of collapse. Instead, it's about rebalancing—and the West's growing crisis of identity, cohesion, and moral authority. We discuss the rise of soft power from non-Western states, the consequences of Western hypocrisy in conflicts like Ukraine and Gaza, and how hybrid identities, populism, and cultural fragmentation are transforming politics at home. Dr Puri also reflects on whether a multipolar world could be fairer—and what risks it might bring.

On the latest episode of Minor Issues, Mark Thornton takes a provocative look at America's path toward hyperinflation. Mark walks through Mises's three stages of inflation, contending the US is moving from complacency to active flight from cash, and he ties today's risks to sanctions policy, BRICS efforts to bypass SWIFT with gold-leaning systems, and foreign central banks rotating from Treasuries into gold. At home, Mark sees households hedging with real estate, older savers turning to precious metals, and younger investors to crypto: classic signs of eroding demand for dollars.Additional Resources"The Gold-Silver Ratio” (Minor Issues Podcast, Episode 119) : https://mises.org/MI_119"Exorbitant Privilege: The Rise and Fall of the Dollar and the Future of the International Monetary System" by Mark Thornton (Book review, Quarterly Journal of Austrian Economics): https://mises.org/MI_136_A"Exorbitant Privilege Gained and Lost: Fiscal Implications” by Zefeng Chen, Zhengyang Jiang, Hanno Lustig, Stijn Van Nieuwerburgh, and Mindy Xiaolan (Journal of Political Economy): https://mises.org/MI_136_BThe Mises Institute is giving away 100,000 copies of Hayek for the 21st Century.

//The Wire//2300Z September 5, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: VENEZUELAN AIRCRAFT CONDUCT FLIGHT OVER US NAVY SHIPS, PROMPTING US RESPONSE. BRITISH CABINET SHUFFLES PERSONNEL FOLLOWING RESIGNATION OF DEPUTY PRIME MINISTER DUE TO TAX EVASION SCANDAL. USA/INDIA RELATIONS DETERIORATE AFTER CHINESE DEFENSE SUMMIT.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Germany: Concern is growing regarding the sudden deaths of several politicians/candidates from the Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party. Local party officials have reported that 7x candidates have died unexpectedly, two weeks before the next round of elections on September 14th. Analyst Comment: German authorities have stated that two of the deaths were from natural causes, however the others have not been explained. Independent verification is not possible at this time as government and party officials are withholding the names of the deceased for reasons of family privacy.United Kingdom: Several high-level positional changes have taken place throughout the British government following the departure of Deputy PM Angela Rayner. This morning Yvette Cooper announced her resignation from the Home Office, with Shabana Mahmood taking her place as Home Secretary. Cooper will become the Foreign Secretary, and David Lammy (the former Foreign Secretary) is to become Deputy Prime Minister.Analyst Comment: This reshuffling is largely due to several scandals that have plagued Starmer's government for several months. From the migrant crisis to internal corruption scandals, the last straw was the discovery that Angela Rayner had not paid property taxes on one of her residences, which totaled roughly £40,000 worth of tax evasion. This rapidly snowballed into a big scandal, especially since she has previously called out the tax-loopholes utilized by other politicians in the past.Caribbean: Yesterday, 2x Venezuelan F-16's conducted an overflight of the US Navy Task Force currently conducting operations in the southern Caribbean Sea. In response to this action, this morning the Pentagon announced the deployment of 10x F-35 fighter aircraft to Fort Buchanan in Puerto Rico. This forward deployment will be conducted to allegedly engage in kinetic targeting of narcotics trafficking platforms, and also to provide more air-to-air targeting capabilities in the region.Analyst Comment: As expected, the situation has escalated. The deployment of F-35s usually points to one possibility...an expansion of the conflict. More specifically, F-35's would not be needed to target simple narco-vessels but would be a satisfactory platform for engaging more substantial threats, such as the F-16's the US sold to the Venezuelan military back in the 1980's.-HomeFront-Washington D.C. - Relations between the US and India have deteriorated somewhat over the past few days, following the trade negotiations that have been ongoing for some time. Earlier this week, China hosted the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit, which coincided with a visit by President Vladimir Putin, and Prime Minister Modi. This summit resulted in India re-affirming their desire to strengthen ties with their fellow BRICS partners, instead of growing ties with the United States. This in turn has lead to a worsening of relations with the United States, and the White House taking a more hardball approach to trade negotiations with India. After the display of friendship between India and China, President Trump has floated the idea of blocking American tech companies from outsourcing work to India.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: There is another angle to the deteriorating US/India relations that is worthy of note. Brief scandal erupted on social media yesterday as multiple influential accounts were discovered to be posting suspiciously pro-India content, in response to the White House making statements that

FIRST HOUR 9-915 John Batchelor 09-03 segment 1.mp3 Guest: Colonel Jeff McCausland, United States Army retired artilleryman, CBS News, Dickinson College visiting professor, and Diamond 6 Leadership and Strategy CEO. Global Geopolitics and Military Displays Colonel Jeff McCausland discusses a Beijing military parade featuring Xi Jinping, Kim Jong-un, and Vladimir Putin, interpreting it as a message of strength and innovation, not peace, while downplaying the US role in WWII. He also covers the static battle lines in Ukraine, European proposals for a military force, and US involvement in Middle East conflicts in Yemen and Gaza, noting a tactical agreement with the Houthis. 915-930 : John Batchelor 09-03 segment 2.mp3 Guest: Colonel Jeff McCausland, United States Army retired artilleryman, CBS News, Dickinson College visiting professor, and Diamond 6 Leadership and Strategy CEO. Pentagon's Evolving Mission and Global Order Colonel Jeff McCausland discusses the new national military strategy emphasizing homeland defense as the primary mission for the Department of Defense, shifting from an international "cop on the beat" role to a domestic one. This is reflected in increased border forces and Caribbean operations. McCausland also touches on China's ambition to establish a new global order, returning to its perceived historical position as a superpower, utilizing organizations like BRICS and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization.930-945 John Batchelor 09-03 segment 3.mp3 Guest: John Cochrane at the Hoover Institution. Federal Reserve Independence and Financial Regulation John Cochrane explores the complex debate on whether financial regulation should be integrated with or separated from monetary policy and less independent of Congress. He raises concerns about the Fed's independence, its failure to foresee the Silicon Valley Bank collapse, and the "too big to fail" phenomenon. Cochrane also discusses the risks of the Fed monetizing debt, its stance on stablecoins, and how its actions influence fiscal policy. 945-1000 John Batchelor 09-03 segment 4.mp3 Guest: John Cochrane of the Hoover Institution. Reforming the Federal Reserve's Role John Cochrane addresses proposals to reorganize the Federal Reserve, questioning whether it should become more political or have its scope narrowed to monetary policy, his preferred option. He criticizes the Fed'spandemic response, specifically its decision to print trillions of dollars for deficits, which he argues was a choice leading to the 2022 inflation. Cochrane also examines the wisdom of Quantitative Easing (QE), suggesting it had limited economic impact but expanded the Fed's political influence. SECOND HOUR 10-1015 John Batchelor 09-03 segment 5.mp3 Guests: Gordon Chang and General Blaine Holt, US Air Force General, retired. China's Historical Revisionism and Autocratic Alliances Gordon Chang and General Blaine Holtdiscuss China's military parade, led by Xi Jinping, which falsely claims Chinese victory over Japan in WWII, omitting the US and Allied contributions. Holt views the parade as theater for a crumbling Belt and Road Initiative, not a united front. They note India's absence from the parade due to animosity with China. Despite appearances, Putin and Kim Jong-un also have underlying animosity towards Xi Jinping, making their alliance one of expediency, not unity.1015-1030 John Batchelor 09-03 segment 6.mp3 Guests: Gordon Chang and Peter Huessy, President of Geostrategic Analysis, a fellow at the National Institute for Deterrent Studies. China's Nuclear Ambitions and Arms Control Challenges Peter Huessy describes China's nuclear weapons as tools for coercion and hegemonic goals, a stark contrast to the US view of deterrence. He notes China's rapid nuclear buildup, exceeding Soviet Union rates during the Cold War. Huessy and Gordon Chang discuss the imminent expiration of the New Start treaty with Russia and the absence of arms control talks with China, which has historically aided proliferation. This signals a "brave new world" with zero legal restraint on nuclear weapons.1030-1045 : John Batchelor 09-03 segment 7.mp3 Guests: Gordon Chang and Captain James Fanell, United States Navy retired, intelligence officer for the Seventh Fleet and for the Indo-Pacific Theater. Pacific Tensions: Philippines, China, and US Naval Strategy Captain James Fanell and Gordon Chang analyze China's strategic ambition to subjugate the Philippines, building militarized islands in the South China Sea. Fanell highlights Scarborough Shoal as a critical "cork in the bottle," potentially used by China as a military base. He notes the Philippines' new forward operating base with anti-ship missiles in the Bashi Channel as a counter. Fanell suggests a reinvigorated US Navymorale and a shift in the Pentagon's approach to deter China.1045-1100 John Batchelor 09-03 segment 8.mp3 Guests: Gordon Chang and Rebecca Grant, Vice President of the Lexington Institute. Venezuela, Guyana, and US Deterrence in the Caribbean Rebecca Grant discusses Guyana'sburgeoning oil wealth and Venezuela's threatening territorial claims under Maduro, who also opposes democracy. She and Gordon Chang analyze a significant US Navy presence off Venezuela's coast, including destroyers and a Marine Expeditionary Unit, as a strong deterrent against Maduro's actions and his alliances with Russia and China. Grantindicates improving morale and combat readiness within the US Navy, emphasizing its vital role in global operations. THIRD HOUR John Batchelor 09-03 segment 9.mp3 Guest: Brett Arends of Market Watch (Return on Investment). Bond Market Anxiety and Federal Reserve Pressures Brett Arends explains the bond market's current unhappiness stems from unsustainable national debt and uncertainty surrounding President Trump's tariffs. He clarifies that the Fedcontrols short-term rates, while the bond market sets long-term rates.

He emphasizes the need for fiscal sustainability. 1100-1115 : John Batchelor 09-03 segment 9.mp3 Guest: Brett Arends of Market Watch (Return on Investment).

Addressing Bond Market Turmoil Brett Arends explains that the troubled bond market stems from unsustainable national debt and recent court rulings questioning President Trump's tariffs. He advises Donald Trump to support Federal Reserve independence, abandon attacks on Jerome Powell and Lisa Cook, and work with Congress on tariffs to ensure fiscal sustainability and calm market anxieties. Arends notes that gold's all-time high reflects a lack of market confidence.1130-1145 John Batchelor 09-03 segment 11.mp3 Guest: Bob Zimmerman who keeps the website Behind the Black. New Discoveries in Space and Planetary Science Bob Zimmerman highlights new solar research using the European Space Agency's Solar Orbiter probe, improving predictions of solar events that impact Earth's technology.

Iran's Nuclear Dilemma and Regional Threats Janatyn Sayeh discusses the looming snapback mechanism of the 2015 JCPOA, which could reinstate UN sanctions on Iran if it fails to comply with demands.
