Especially listen after 45 minutes because it reveals the non energy crisis revealed by Lindsey Williams as well as a summary of the lies of our alleged government.
As I reflect on the content of this interview, what appears to be happening is that this administration is attempting to lose this war but let it develop in a way that it appears to the populous that it was beyond our control.
This summary will blow your mind.

War has a way of exposing what was already broken. As the conflict in the Middle East enters a more dangerous phase, markets are flashing a massive contradiction: oil remains volatile and shipping routes are under severe strain, yet gold and silver are suffering a sharp weekly sell-off.
In this interview, Jeremy Szafron, Anchor of Kitco News, sits down with Gerald Celente, Founder of the Trends Research Institute and Publisher of The Trends Journal, to break down the "Gold Paradox" and what it reveals about the state of the global economy. Celente argues that the current price action is a "rigged game" designed to mask the dire straits of a U.S. economy facing a $40 trillion debt level. They also dive into the tactical escalations surfacing in the Middle East, including reports that the administration is weighing a move on Iran’s Kharg Island—a hub for 90% of the country’s crude exports. With a $200 billion war funding request on the table and diesel prices pushing past $5.00 a gallon, Celente warns that the "war squeeze" is now hitting the American kitchen table.
Beyond geopolitics, Celente provides a blunt assessment of the "Dot-Com 2.0" AI bubble, explaining why he believes China is poised to lead the technological race while Western "Magnificent Seven" stocks face significant overinvestment risks.

Stocks tumble as losses mount from Iran war impact, Nasdaq enters correction territory: Live updates
Stocks sold off on Friday, with declines intensifying into the final hour of the session as traders grappled with escalating conflict in the Middle East and higher oil prices.The selling ramped up in the afternoon, after Reuters reported that Iraq has declared force majeure on all oilfields operated by foreign companies.
“If this is an escalation involving troops on the ground, then we’re probably in for at least a couple more weeks of this sort of market of higher oil prices, high gas prices; you’re hanging on every headline about energy infrastructure in the region,” Baird investment strategist Ross Mayfield said to CNBC. “Quite frankly, equity markets haven’t sold off in a way that would reflect this sort of event yet, so there could still be some some downside ahead.”
