Comrade rebels, the International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) Deputy Managing Director says the sanctions against Russia are likely to undermine the US dollar’s global dominance as a trade currency.
As we have outlined, this is ultimately the counter strategic goal of Russia and Putin’s economic allies. It’s a feature, not a flaw, in the process that Joe Biden has triggered.
(Inside Paper) – […] “The dollar would remain the major global currency even in that landscape, but fragmentation at a smaller level is certainly quite possible,” Gopinath said in an interview with the Financial Times. She went on to say that some countries have already begun to renegotiate the currency in which they are paid for trade.
According to Gopinath, the drastic restrictions imposed by Western countries in response to Russia’s military operation in Ukraine may result in the formation of small currency blocs based on trade between individual groups of countries. Furthermore, the use of currencies other than the dollar or the euro in global trade would result in a further diversification of central banks’ reserve assets. (read more)
This outcome, in combination with the realization the western alliance will also necessarily lose leverage for their climate change goals, is ultimately what triggered the G7 energy ministers to demand that Russia continue using euros and dollars.
The efforts of NATO and the western alliance to crush the Russian currency have failed. The Russian ruble currency has jumped back from the sanctions and is now even stronger than before the sanctions were put into place. Now, with demands that Europe pay for oil and gas in rubles, Europe and the western alliance find themselves in a position of vulnerability.
With China and India supporting ongoing trade with Russia, and with Saudi Arabia responding coldly to the U.S. working on a deal with Iran for nuclear weapons, the geopolitical strategy of NATO, G7 and the proverbial western alliance increasingly looks like it will backfire.
Meanwhile, Putin’s domestic favorability within Russia is climbing as the Wall Street Journal noted:
(Wall Street Journal) – President Vladimir Putin’s approval rating in Russia has soared since he launched his invasion of Ukraine on Feb. 24—to 83% from 71% last month—according to independent Russian pollster Levada Center.
Surveys by Levada Center and state-backed pollsters indicate that around two-thirds of Russians back Mr. Putin’s war, which the Kremlin refers to as a special military operation. Experts have cautioned against taking current Russian polls on face value, given that Russian authorities have pursued a crackdown against dissent, including a media blackout of any reports contrary to the Kremlin’s narrative about Russia’s actions in Ukraine.
Mr. Putin’s approval rating had for the past few years hovered in the 60s, according to Levada, which has tracked the longtime Russian leader’s rating since he became prime minister in 1999.
[…] Levada, which was designated a foreign agent by Russian authorities, also found that the percentage of Russians who believe the country is moving in the right direction increased since the war began: 69% of Russians now believe Russia is headed in the right direction, compared with 52% in February and 50% in January, the poll showed.

Who knew fracturing the globalist ‘new world order‘ alliance would be so popular? Apparently, the timing was perfect.
When you consider the same leaders within the western alliance have been acting as authoritarian dictators for the past two years, with their COVID rules, mandates, fiats and unilateral decrees that undermined the “democratic norms and rule-based order” they claimed to represent, it is not a surprise to see them standing naked to their enemies.
The western leaders have no credibility to stand atop their soapboxes and rail against autocracy when they have been acting like autocratic dictators for the past two years. Their proclamations are falling on the deaf ears of the citizens they abused.
Embracing tyranny has consequences.
Sundance, I love your material. On this one I can’t agree, The Russian Ruble was worth less than a penny to the U.S. D. It’s now worth about 8-10 cents. Putin will fail, as more aid comes to the Ukraine. Thanks for your continued effort for the cause. Jim
“Putin will fail…”
He will “fail” in what way? He has already achieved his objectives on the ground in Ukraine and has started pulling his troops out and bringing them back home. The globalists will keep on whining, but he is a hero back home.
Bull roar, he has not achieved his objective, nor will he. HIs objective was all of Ukraine. That would have been the third to fall. Ukraine’s fall would have opened the dollar to the complete restoration of the former Soviet Union.
His objective has never been all of Ukraine.
Quite right. But as Col MacGregor said a couple three days ago, Putin’s objectives may have changed as Putin’s “special operation” progressed. At any rate, you and i are in agreement.
It has never been taking all of Ukraine. I highly recommend reading/watching his speeches in their entirety. They are all posted at thesaker.is.
Did Vlad share his strategy with you?
Didn’t think so!
Vlad shared the strategy of Hunter’s laptop with XI.
The Brandons have promised Americans will pay the ransom.
Why would he want Galicia?
They want to live in the ESSR, not USSR.
Have you discussed these objectives lately with Putin, or are you guessing what his objectives were.
Putin wants that Eastern Ukraine buffer with Russian borders from NATO forces who would love to build military bases in Western Ukraine.
NATO’s recent actions are no longer consistent with that of a “mutual defense alliance.” Someone is now using NATO as a cover and a foil to move military forces directly adjacent to Russia with obviously hostile future intentions. Like Putin, I believe that NATO has become “very dark.” Someone is arranging their chess pieces now for a future pan-European (“world …”) war. Disguising their identity and intentions through NATO.
That did not seem to be his intention. Ukraine is a corrupt albatross to have around one’s neck. He was just looking to free the ethnic Russian people who have been persecuted by the U.S backed Nazi establishment.
Arnie, Putin’s objectiveS are 1) keep NATO from locating weapons on their border by either absorbing into Russia or helping the areas of The People’s Republics of Donetsk and Luhansk remain independent of Ukraine, and 2) gain control of the Donbas Valley for oil and gas development after the joint depopulation effort of the area by Ukraine and Russia is complete.
And Putin has both objectives well in hand with a bonus of the death of the petrodollar thrown in.
Exactly. And to protect the “land bridge” to Crimea and also solidify access to the Black Sea. Of course there are also multiple existential (I know, cliche) reasons as well. The U.S., EU, and NATO are all nothing but new world order fronts at this point. Everyone who’s currently been installed at the top of a nation’s “government” today in the world knows what the true gig is. Most, if not all, minus guys like Trump and Putin, have eagerly signed on with the promise of riches, power, and most importantly of all, permission to keep living and not get the Trump, Putin, or Canadian trucker treatment.
He has every right to insist that contracts for purchase of his nation’s products – particularly, energy products – receive final settlement in his nation’s currency. The costs and risks associated with other currencies, particularly the US$(!), should not be his to bear.
We do the same. Many nations do. Henry Kissinger’s fifty-year-old agreement is obsolete … and, very costly to everyone including you and me. It should be thrown out. Should have been thrown out the day it was proposed. Henry should have been laughed out of the room.
The objective was never all of Ukraine.
Actually, Arnie, “no, it never was.” Putin said exactly what his objectives were: two Eastern provinces, stop the Ukranian shelling of its own people there, and slaughter Nazis wherever they may be found. He encircled Kiev to keep Ukranian forces bottled up there, but he never tried to take the city and I do not believe that he will depose its useful idiot. His forces have systematically performed their mission and they will be successful. Neither NATO nor USA will actually intervene.
Why are you lying?
How do you know this? Do you have a source inside the Kremlin??
currently…80% of Russians is satisfied to incursion/clean up nazis in the Ukraine….
Slaughter them. Everywhere you find them. Russia of all nations on earth knows exactly what “a Nazi” is, and what they can do.
Why will Putin fail. Can you elaborate, please?
This is what failing looks like.
“[Americans] got involved in Ukraine and the war has started here because of them, that’s what I say to you.” – Mariupol Resident
Jim, you make a very good point about aid to Ukraine causing Putin to fail. However, Putin failing is a separate issue from the Dollar weakening on international stages. All Putin has to do is open the flood gate on the Dollar the way Chiang Kai-shek opened the gates of the Yang Tze river on the Imperial Japanese Army. Although it killed a lot of Chinese it certainly stopped the Japanese Army advance for quite a while. So, Putin may do badly in Ukraine but the Dollar may suffer in its own way from his moves to force energy payments to Russia in gold or Rubles. I suspect it will damage or kill the Euro well before the Dollar. We’ll see.
Russia and its President are doing just fine, thank you. They spent ten years or more “talking” about these things, until finally the time for talking was done. They planned and are now successfully executing a limited military mission to solve the problem, which is of genuine national security interest to them.
The USA will allocate a huge amount of money for “aid,” and shall we wager on how much (if any) of that money ever leaves the Beltway. 💰 I say, “none.”
The MSM is strong on this one…
Ummmm…… Putin will block that aid.
95% of that aid is actually being grifted by US politicians and will never reach Ukraine.
THAT’s the tea ☕️ 💯
The other 5% will be laundered through Ukrainian banks, just like last time.
It will be litigated in a Delaware court, just like last time.
Then we can have another color revolution in Kiev and do it all over again.
I think that will make 3 color revolutions since 2005, I lost count.
Who the Hell signs their name at the end of a post ?
If you believe Putin invaded the Ukraine to take it over you are a misguided fool.
The Aid Ukraine is getting will end up in pockets of the politicians and corrupt and arming the AZOV Nazis in Ukraine that are killing the Ukrainian people.
You’re right, but AZOV only kills Ukrainian-born ethnic Russians(or Russians).
If you’re not with them, you’re Russian.
That’s what the purity and language laws were for. Their Aryan ideology had to be couched and replaced with an ethnic one. My opinion only.
It is my fervent wish that there are no living Nazis left in Ukraine at the end of this.
Lol. Wanna make a bet? Say 100 pesos!
Don’t be on the wrong side of history!

Sorry Jim the Ruble is coming back and trading at levels pre war. Putin has said to the inbred Eurotrash (I mean leaders not the people) you will pay in Rubles or Gold or you get nothing. They can complain if they like that is an option too.
Putin has already won. He accomplished what he set out to do and more.
Way more than most Americans realize.
He is finished phase one. His military operation is right on target. Again, I recommend reading his speeches.
It’s not always to treat the enemies of your enemies as your “friends”. It’s a short seeing. Russians were the one who infiltrated the Western governing bodies, universities,Academia etc and also who helped establishing the Chinese and other commies around the world.
Now they want to dominate/bypass or cooperate behind the scenes to rip off the benefits they’ve planted for a century!
Putin uses the tsar tactic and wants to leave a legacy of the Putin the Great – the money are already in his pockets so it’s the legacy.
Don’t be fooled by that. Unfortunately a lot of my favourite outlets in their rage against globalists see Putin and China as theirs saviours- huge mistake and disappointment for me as a loyal follower.
Hopefully and as an optimist someday they understand…
Don’t confuse older Soviets with the modern Russians. VVP is not a savior in our struggle against the Globalists, merely an ally. Which is a hell of a lot more than the puppets inside the beltway.
When a currency goes up it’s failing.
However, Russia is too big to fail.
I know it’s smaller then the USSR.
But Ukraine was part of the USSR.
Jim, Sundance just stated the Ruble was stronger after the sanctions.
How you came to the conclusion that Putin will fail is beyond me.
He has the support of the most powerful country on earth (China).
India is buying from him.
The Saudis have turned on us.
Israel isn’t listening to us.
We’re 30 trillion in debt, but you think Putin is finished.
Get your head out of the sand and wake up.
The US is on its last leg my friend.
On Feb 24th, the beginning of the conflict, the exchange rate was 80 Ruble/US$… Following the imposition of sanctions the Ruble fell to 120/US$… Today the Ruble has recovered to nearly pre-conflict level at 81.75/US$…
Ukraine isn’t the endgame… It’s the distraction…
Outside Money Trumps Inside Money is the endgame…
The alternative is Totalitarianism where you can be de-platformed, de-banked and de-personed for committing “wrongthink”…
Erroneous.
Fail?
Been reading fake news again?
Please provide proof/information to back up your opinion.
For me, I have learned more from Sundance since finding this site than I ever hoped to learn about politics, economics, global economics, the 4th branch of government, how laws are actually written and passed, law enforcement, you name it.
So, please provide factual information to support your statement.

hate to sound like an optimist, but why do I get the impression that it’s already too late
Because it is
Just read this over at ZH.
“CEO of Germany’s multinational BASF SE, the world’s largest chemical producer, has warned that curbing or cutting off energy imports from Russia would bring into doubt the continued existence of small and medium-sized energy companies, and further would likely spiral Germany into its most “catastrophic” economic crisis going back to the end of World War 2.”
Further in the article he indicated it would take 4 to 5 years to be independent of the need for Russian gas.
Me thinks the financial blockade card is catastrophically failing. – Now where is that popcorn?
I wish the German populace no harm. However, seeing the Germans laughed at Trump when he told them the Russians could use energy as a weapon… where’s the popcorn?
Right.
Interesting, but not unexpected.
Add in that the ruble is recovering and is almost where it was pre-invasion.
https://www.greenwichtime.com/news/article/Despite-Western-sanctions-Russian-ruble-and-17047731.php
Essentially, the sanctions didn’t dent Russia in the long run. Yet, they were able to make a really rough economic situation much worse in the United States as well as giving pause to many nations about the future of trade and commerce in US dollars.
We went from “Build Back Better” to food shortages, record high inflation and the destabilization of western norms…in 14 short months. I’d suspect we are on the Venezuelan Time Line. Shouldn’t be long, now….
“food shortages, record high inflation and the destabilization of western norms…in 14 short months. I’d suspect we are on the Venezuelan Time Line. Shouldn’t be long, now….” …. that IS Build Back Better, don’t you know?
Russian Ruble Auctions (below) will relentlessly drive the value of the Ruble UP!
Putin just tied the ruble to gold. That is devastating to both the dollar and the Euro. Tough times are coming.
Source?
It’s absolutely true…. tomluongo.me What is so damn funny is the outrage from West leaders. They are just shocked that Putin dare not pay them how they demand. This should be a clue to all who are deep thinkers. We bitch about the low brow entitlement society in our country. Well this attitude either filtered down from the top as a ruse or our leaders sowed so much bullshit they actually came to believe it themselves. Take your pick.
I’ve been hearing this for some time…about Russia and China tying their currencies to gold. Here’s one interesting article. https://tfiglobalnews.com/2022/03/31/by-pegging-gold-to-the-ruble-russia-has-just-wiped-out-the-dollars-clout-from-the-world-markets/
“Putin just tied the ruble to gold. That is devastating to both the dollar and the Euro. Tough times are coming.”
The bat is correct. This was easily seen in advance. Biden even told us don’t worry about hurting Putin this will hurt all of you. That’s hard to digest as we run up to the midterms so swallow hard. Putin is no dummy unlike many West Civ leaders. In all likelihood he suspects that he has probably been baited into fulfilling a role. More than likely he will be used as the scapegoat to kick off the party. I am hopeful the Russian people will fair better than us and ditto for the Chinese. If memory serves, China thru their state run media, advised their citizens to stock up on food several months ago. Guess at this point I will back any country/leader that actually gives a shit about their people. I don’t get the feeling we are on the list.
I don’t know how it starts but for those in uniform (FBI, CIA, Mil, etc) who happen to pass by you are probably our best hope to get the ball rollin.
Love the name, TreeperInTraining. I regard my own self in the same manner. Awesome.
If the IMF is concerned, it’s a good sign. The Fed was only given the power to print currency by the approval of the states. To just arbitrarily change to digital, involving one world order leaders, is not something (in my opinion) that can be done without state involvement, particularly since this involves ‘leaders’ who are not living in our nation or comprehend our economic system . The founders warned us against making treaties with other countries.
A public announcement from the IMF is one hell of an Emergency Smoke Signal!
When you have lost the IMF, you are in deep Biden.
In other words, in deep Schiff.
“Comrade rebels, the International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) Deputy Managing Director says the sanctions against Russia are likely to undermine the US dollar’s global dominance as a trade currency.”
——-
Unexpectedly!
OK, the WEF and NWO has now ostracized 3/4 of the world ( the gray part of the map ) and are in the process of starving and conquering the rest ( yellow part of the map ).
I’d say their plans are coming along bigly. 2A and CW2 is all that’s left.
“This is no small thing, to restore a Republic after it has fallen into corruption”.
I don’t know why, but I can hear Vlad singing this in the bath tub!
My oh my, what is RINO McConnell gonna do to pick up his corrupt clown buddy Biden off the floor on this!? This one is a whole lot bigger and tougher than passing a lot of inflation inducing pork spending for the donor class. Like PDJT said ‘McConnell is a dumb S.O.B.’
Since McChinless is chin deep in the CCPs pocket it doesn’t matter what he does as long as it continues to help China. He’s nothing if not a worthless RINO who could care less what happens to America
It’s a relief if he “could care less”
Dumb as as a Fox.
Ponder the coming “RUSSIAN RUBLE AUCTIONS”
• EU buyers are “presuming” a favorable €Uro-for-Ruble EXCHANGE RATE.
… No need!
• Putin sets a reasonable/historical “INITIAL” Commodity-Purchase Exchange Rate, and then gets the ball rolling
• He has already banned Currency Transactions
… Except by their Central Bank
• He then directs the Russian Central Bank to conduct Weekly Ruble Auctions for Gas Purchases
… Requiring every EU country that wants gas to REGISTER its BIDDER
• He calculates how many Rubles each EU country needs to buy its contracted “April Weekly Gas Delivery”
• He then LIMITS the Rubles to be Auctioned @ 80% of the Rubles the EU needs
• The Auction turns Registered Country Bidders into COMPETITORS for “Scarce Rubles”
… Forcing them into an impossible situation:
… Outbid other EU Members to “Bring home the Gas” [bacon]
OR
… Return empty-handed because their citizens & businesses “Weren’t Worth It”
• Every Weekly Auction relentlessly INCREASES the Ruble’s Euro Exchange Rate
If European countries beg for a “Supplemental Ruble Auction”, Putin can then
• Require at least 3 Country Bidders
• Auction HALF of the Rubles needed to close those Countries’ “Gap Gap”
• Set the Opening Bid at the prior Auction’s Highest Successful Bid
Rinse & Repeat, using the above rule to set the Opening Bid for each Weekly Auction
If you see any holes, let us know!
It’s a supply vs. demand issue. Right now, Russia has the supply and are demanding rubles to access that supply. When/if that changes, a hole will appear.
I don’t think the USA will be determining the exchange price of oil any time soon nor the currency used.
Stolen elections have consequences.
Dumb Biden & the EU’s sanctions against Russia failed as expected.
And the globalists’ economic attack on Moscow backfired, BIG TIME.
VLAD outsmart them all…….
Wouldn’t doubt it.
Mega Bonus for Russian Citizens & Businesses
EU Countries that are running SHORT of RUBLES to buy the gas needed to run industries and heat homes will soon be DESPERATE to reopen trade with Russian Businesses & Consumers!
Imagine what Russians can buy with their auction-enhanced “Super Rubles”.
One problem with your scenario, EU will tell him to f*ck off and die.
It’s hard to say those words when you are freezing to death or trying to do all those things that require gasoline or natural gas.
Russia wins either way.
I hardly think so. They are reliant on Russian gas. The entire world relies on Russia’s potash to make the fertilizer that grows everyones food. If the EU tells Russia to F off and die it will be they who do the dying.
Not going to happen.
As much as we want it to.
At least somebody understands what’s happening. Russia has now refused to trade in US dollars but they will exchange euros for rubles. The alternative to rubles is to trade in gold. This is going to be an unmitigated disaster for the US.
Most people don’t understand what catastrophic events these boobs kicked off by allowing these sanctions.
Get ready for really hard times in this country.
The ones implementing the sanctions are not going to suffer.
We will be bearing that burden.
Putin is an old-school Commie for the most part, but he’s actually less of a Commie than 95% of elected democrats and at least 50% of elected republicans.
If you throw-in the Administrative deep-state and the Media Mafia, I’m starting to wonder where freedom today really is in the world.
Amen to that
Double AMEN!!! No truer words Felix
As planned.
None of this would of happened under Trump.
When the criminal class steals elections the American people have a big problem.
None of this would have happened either if Putin would have withdrawn from Syria and let Barky’s private ISIL Army have a shot. That’s when the He-Man Globalists Club turned on Putin. This war would not have been scheduled by our Deep State if Putin had complied back then.
(btw, I use the term “ISIL” for the Obama/McCain/Clinton off-the-books Lawrence of Arabia-army, because that’s what they called it. The “L” stands for Levant which includes Israel. It was Obama’s way of saying Israel is property of the Brotherhood.)
OK. A deep philosophical thought question and I am NOT on the side of the population reduction globullists. Everyone says go back to gold or other hard currency. As a fact, there is a pretty limited supply of that, thus the price.
Now the question, how much of the current 7-8 billion world population is a product of the fake fiat central bank system? There are definitely more fake paper monies sloshing around than gold/silver could maintain. The current gold and silver reserves could not support 7-8 billion people.
Yes, more innovation and invention has gotten more meat and grain agriculture out of a given acre of land, but it must be admitted the production of lots of fake money with no real support other than promise has maybe created a comparable falsely supported world population. And yes, me and mine might be one of those. Are we talking 5-10% surplus, 20%, 40-50%?
There’s a lot of electronic gold floating around too.
Billionaires, Dicktaters, and corrupt politicians and American oligarchs are sucking up a boatload of that money. Let them eat cake and there will be plenty of gold to cover what money we really need in circulation.
This coincides with what Biden slurred out the other day.
“Sanctions won’t hurt Putin but they will hurt the people of all countries.”
Please think about that statement. If I am misconstruing it let me know. Why do you say this and yes I understand Biden says crazy shit. But that’s not the case here I’m afraid and it dovetails with his food shortage warning.
When Biden said late 2021 the “Winter would be dark full of death and disease for the unvax’d” I scowled. What a nice thing to say for Christmas. But I never batted an eye as I knew it was bullshit. But guys this latest warning(s) are not so get ready best you can. Do what you can with what you got.
Even a dementia patient has lucid moments now and then but it doesn’t bring much hope to the overall prognosis.
Beijing Biden’s not making that up – he’s repeating what he’s heart.
Here is the thing about food shortages. If real food shortages occur (not just supply-chain shortages), then we are talking about an extinction-level event for the American (and global) left. Not the loss of a couple of elections, but the end of the left as a political force. Real food shortages lead directly to revolution, there are no steps in between. And in America, with the 2A, things will get very dangerous for leftists and their RINO allies. The democrats and RINOs know this, so I find it almost impossible to believe that shortages will actually occur. Why they are issuing these warnings may have to do with internal democrat politics, which is always in a state of crisis. They are already looking at a tsunami, food shortages would be their death knell.
You aren’t wrong but understand there will be no linear references to political identity. I suspect they (left) have already sealed their fate with these shots. That doesn’t mean life will carry on as usual for those on the right or those who avoided the jab. It’s going to be hell regardless.
I underestimated the leverage Russia has – starting to see the Atlanticists failed Ruble bashing as not just shooting themselves in the foot, but at least a bonanza for Russia, if not a boom. The multinationals that kept their footprints in Russia were smart to do so.
McDonald’s self-righteously closed their Russian operation. It boomeranged back when the Russians took them over and renamed them. Some of these multinational corporations needed to see how sanctions often do not work the way they intend them.
I think the perfect scene for this (and I guess ironically, it’s Russian) is the Red October scene where the torpedo fired by the Russian sub gets redirected on them. “You fingers idiot, you’ve killed us.” The US/EU are the ones who fired the torpedo.
100%.
perfect analogy
[…] drastic restrictions imposed by Western countries in response to Russia’s military operation in Ukraine may result in the formation of small currency blocs based on trade between individual groups of countries
This may even trigger currency blocs within our own country!
The powers that be stole our election. The msm helped them instead of pursuing the truth. I want nothing to do with any leader who does not talk about the fraud on this nation.
Hannity had Pence on his radio show today. I quickly turned it off. Hannity is hard to listen to in any case.
If these fools printing money and spending us into oblivion fall from power, it can only be good for us all.
The swamp will be drained.
The USA has great people living here and a horribly corrupt government.
The MSM is part of TBTB. They are not separate.
Russia and China have been “talking” for years about a new international “currency” to be used for certain payments. Such as for oil and other large scale purchases of necessary resources on the “open” market.
This was always aimed at reducing or eliminating the Dollars’s power as that “currency” for all this time. And that power is there but not used wisely. DC is doing it badly enough and openly enough that they’ve made it something other countries are now talking about.
Besides messing up our own finances we’re messing up everyone else’s and they’re not willing to take it anymore.
This isn’t Biden’s fault. He’s just a convenient fool to take the blame which is how the GOP rates any thing these days. They don’t want a Republican in office when the financial catastrophe hits the USA, the EU and the rest of the world. Note the order in which they will go down. Amount of time between is unknown.
As an ordinary guy, a non-elite, a deplorable, a believer in the inherent goodness of the Christian West, a Trump supporter, an American nationalist and populist, I would caution everyone against taking a side in this existential battle between the Globalist Fascists and the Russian Civilizational Fascists. Whatever catch phrase you want to use for the sides, we should have no illusions about it. It is a battle between apex predators, a bear and a mountain lion. And whichever side prevails, WE are next on the menu. There is no good side in this. Perhaps they can do all of us a favor and destroy each other.
Trump won. And he’s gonna do it again.
Well said.
My only hope in this as a near helpless citizen is that those who were warned repeatedly to stop poking the bear get eaten. These people are arrogant, stupid, and put us all in danger.
It’s not as if Grandma Yellen would not have seen this coming before imposing the sanctions. She used to be the Fed chairman. The current Fed chairman Jerome Powell was not consulted or even notified before the sanctions were laid on.
If the goal is a one world government through a one world currency, you have to destroy the world’s reserve currency.
Thoroughly intentional, IMO.
Reading between the lines of this situation…
The globalists do not yet rule the whole world but that is their goal.
Globalists are Stalinist communists who have patiently infiltrated and taken over the WW2 allies govts. They have used the mechanisms put in place after WW2 to prevent the spread of communism to spread and entrench communism, especially the Five Eyes intelligence apparatus.
Russia and China stand in the way of world domination.
Whatever Putin is, he is not a Stalinist or CCP ally.
China appears to be playing both Russia and Five Eyes nations to their goal of world domination. There can be only one.
One Ruble =$.8175 Jim Campbell
disregard my previous currency conversions im a dweeb but the West is losing this battle especially the EU YAY!
You got this guy named Yuval Harari, who talks about how people are now ‘hackable’ and the time of human free will is over. This guy is Claus Schwab’s right hand man. Its this part of the ‘new world order – great reset’ that’s always made me wonder if everyone is really onboard? I can understand both Russia’s and China’s ambitions, economically and politically. To be expected. But are they really onboard with the great reset? Its doesn’t take much digging to see the great reset is about much much more than ‘you’ll own nothing and be happy’ but is centered around changing humanity itself into some trans-humanist hackable species without free will …as insane as that sounds.
Russia, China, India …I don’t know, I just don’t see this hackable humans idea passing the sniff test. President Trump okay with all this? No chance. Its insanity, and I just can’t see leaders selling out to this cult of lunatics with ambitions of world domination.
I think this entire fiasco is entwined like a symphony of chaos between jostling powers without the whole thing going up in flames. It looks to me like a deeply infiltrated and embedded side within the western side nearly pulled it off. World leaders like Russia and China do what they do of coarse, but what they do in reality centers around the U.S and what its doing. If the U.S is going globalist, looks like we’re going globalist …
Enter President Donald J Trump …
He wasn’t very fond of all these ‘Paris agreements’ and things like the TPP, and even before he was President he plainly spoke of how America was being ripped off …and you know the rest. Am I saying President Trump, Putin and Xi are all in this together? (lol sorry, couldn’t help myself 😛 )
When I take an honest look at the alternative? Yeah, why not? Look around. Worldwide vaccinations? Talk of hackable humans? Have you heard Claus Schwab and Yuval Harari speak? What this great reset is really all about? Would it be out of the realm of possibility that someone somewhere took a look at this and said who let the crazy out? Unfortunately stopping it isn’t as easy as hitting a button, or turning a switch …
I believe that the Russians and the Chinese find Klaus Schwab and his band of lunatics just as crazy as you or I do, but they also find him useful. Their mutual goal is weakening and eventually overcoming the West, which primarily means weakening America. Schwab and the rest of the globalist fascists are undoubtedly aiding this goal, so for now he and his ilk are tolerated and allowed to continue with this transhumanism nonsense. But the fact is that an allied Russia and China are far stronger than the globalists, and when their usefulness is at an end, they will be swept away. Transhumanism? They laugh at that.
“Their mutual goal is weakening and eventually overcoming the West” are you sure about that? Why? Why would a weakened West be of any benefit to Russia and China? The West is THE BEST thing to EVER happen to the world. America alone is testament to that. Why do we believe that the world is out to conquer America? What if it was us all along?
Interesting view, not crazy to me at all. but intriguing to ponder as if it were true.
I listened to the interview with Dr Zelenko and Alex Jones. He went into great detail about the WEF/transhumanist prophet Harari. Super scary and demonic stuff.
Zelenko is right. These people are Godless and all about depopulation and ultimate control. Everybody should become well versed in Harari. Klaus Swabb must idolize him.
Here’s the video. I highly recommend it.

Warp speed, baby!
Some additional info for those who are unfamiliar with Klaus’s advisor, Mr Harari:

Oops looks like I spelt Klaus wrong. Sorry about that, uneducated heathen I am …
and spelt 🙂
No no no I saw that one. The spell check did highlight that mistake, but I left it 😛
Few people seem to realize that the only reason the US can run Trillion dollar trade deficits is because the US is exporting the US dollar to the rest of the world (as reserve currency)
Chipping away at the petrodollar is going to make the US live more within its means and provide a force to balance its trade deficit and/or lower the quality of living standard in the US. (less stuff to buy)
The petrodollar is a large chunk of US global power (and US has shown they will use it as a economic weapon). Chipping away at its status by paying for energy in Rubles, Yuans or Gold is not going to make the US more influential in the world.
As long as Democrats are in governmental power, they will spend and spend and spend, no matter what the trade deficit is. After all, they must have green energy which will cost trillions – a lot in imports from China.
Ain’t it great they have figured it out???

I love the White Rose sticker from your article.
My teenage daughter is a member of the White Rose and puts up their stickers everywhere we go. It is her way to fight back against tyranny and honor the memory of Sophie Scholl,who was executed by Nazi Germany. I hope others see this sticker and become involved in the great movement by The White Rose. Members are changing the world, one sticker at a time…
If Trump is not the Man of the Year, Vladimir Putin is.
Well no shiate, Sherlock!!!!
“As we have outlined, this is ultimately the counter strategic goal of Russia and Putin’s economic allies.”
Bingo indeed. Yet who are Putin’s other ‘economic allies’?
I’m thinking Mark Carney, former British and Canadian Central Bank Governor for one. (Surely a litmus for a globalist is to have held auspicious positions in two separate nation-states. I call it International Capital):
“When change comes, it shouldn’t be to swap one currency hegemon for another. Any unipolar system is unsuited to a multi-polar world. We would do well to think through every opportunity, including those presented by new technologies, to create a more balanced and effective system.”

Those above the East-West dialectic were looking to knock the dollar off its pedestal. The next ‘hegemon’ was to be One Worldism. But have their plans gone a bit awry?
Just as they might have been okay with their military investment being ‘left behind’ in the hands of the most battle-hardened warriors in Eurasia, the Taliban. The US military is like the tenant-farmer who fell in love with the landlord’s shiny tractor. One day the order comes down to leave the tractor in the field for the next guy. International Capital is the landlord. We provided staffing. Our contract is ending.
They are moving eastward to position themselves for the looming Eurasian Century. Sounds like a good place to house your military materiele.
That would help explain the friendly fire unleashed on our soldiers at Ft Bragg via the kill shots and so much more. Indeed NOTHING has happened over the last two years that could be deemed even remotely constructive to the American (or Western) way of life. What’s the chance of nothing going our way? That’s tantamount to walking through a minefield and stepping on every mine. Clearly, someone has a map!
But is there trouble in paradise? Like Biden, George Soros is just too damned old to be playing elaborate pantomimes. No, his paplable sense of Eurasian betrayal rings authentic here imo. How do others see it?

Imagine the lonely plight of the bankers holding up their end of the bargain by depleting the west via myocarditis, erased borders, military hari-kari and onerous debt only to be stood up at the altar by Putin and Xi in the final act.
The whole world was to get eCash or a variant thereof, which is to say, a control grid mascerading as actionable currency. Resources were to be forever locked away from market forces, only to be dispensed at the pleasure of a Global Command Economy Politburo to the privileged few (Blackrock? Vanguard?)
But here comes Putin putting real stuff back in play. A resource-driven currency, subject to the populist vagaries & bottoms-up scrum of supply and demand, is ANATHEMA to globalist plans. My opinion.
If so, it couldn’t happen to a more conniving bunch of assholes. They may be up the river without a follow-on captive population.
Pray for our children too.
(Apologies for length.)
“It’s a feature, not a flaw, in the process that Joe Biden has triggered.”
Hmm. Joe Biden triggers nothing Any occupant of the WH at this moment in time would be compelled to have his or her finger on the same trigger to accomplish the same purpose. That’s the Uniparty read.
That Biden happens to the emptiest Quigleyan empty suit of all time only argues EVEN MORE that he pulls no trigger that his trigger finger hasn’t already been placed upon.
Now, has he reached a level of degraded capacity such that he can longer serve even as ceremonial trigger man? Possibly. The parallel govt may be nearing that conclusion, to which I understand SD disagrees.
America is not where it is due to Biden’s derelicted agency because the position long ago had all Constitutional agency hollowed out of it.
Trump, on the other hand, was a Madisonian revivalist. Whether wise fool or naive operator, he acted (or pretended) as though the written Constitution still possessed full operable force.
After all, to date, no one has formally rescinded it. So the paper trail was on his side. That’s why ALL POTUS’ must be vetted by the 4th branch of government, i.e. to school them in the unwritten ‘4th branch’ realities of our present govt structure.
Thus to say, ‘Biden did it’ [inferring that another better/more wise/less infirm/more conservative occupant wouldn’t have] fundamentally misreads the Office of the President at this late stage of the Republic’s demise
And they does the IMF care???? They are supposed to treat all nations equally LoL!
Was reading an interesting article about Russia and gold. Very good and shows that Russia is way ahead of the globalists.
Soros LOVES independent, national currencies. The NWO will definitely reap what it has sown….
Cool. If this gets rid of the Western Central Banking system and begins the destruction of the Federal Reserve then brother count me in.
I can give you chapter & verse of the ills that these evil bastards have foisted on the world for centuries. All wars are bankster wars, for instance, see below:

“War is profitable. The Rothschild family have funded the losers and the winners of all wars since the Napoleonic Wars of 1803 to 1815. They fund both sides so that whichever side wins, they profit. In 1815, Napoleon Bonaparte is campaigning against Wellington. Jacob Rothschild, in Paris, funds Napoleon while Nathan Rothschild, in London, funds Wellington. Soon, the family decides that it is more profitable if Britain wins the war as the British royal family is indebted to the Rothschild family: thus, Jacob limits the funds to Napoleon’s army.
Knowing that Britain is winning the war, Nathan starts selling off his British bonds in lump sums. Other traders conclude that France must be winning and Britain losing. They also dump their British bonds in large sums. As a result, the price of the bond plummets and becomes very low. Once Nathan sees that the other traders have sold all their bonds, he begins buying them back at ridiculously low prices. When the news reaches the ordinary citizens that Britain has won the war, the value of the British bond rises so high that Nathan makes a huge profit. Ever since, the Rothschild family use their money and power to design the economies of other countries in the world. They also create economic crashes to make a profit out of them, just like they do in Britain in 1815.”

If this begins to break the West from the clutches of this evil. Rock on.
Somewhere in a luxurious basement in Hawaii or Martha’s Vineyard, Barrack Obama and Valerie Jarrett are laughing their asses off right now.
“We’re just 4 days away from fundamentally transforming America”.
The New World Order has not been ‘fractured’. Russia adheres to Agenda 2030, just like the west does. Instead, this is a multi polar world order, but frankly, the effects on citizens on any individual country will be exactly the same.
It works like this: the American Dollar is no longer going to be “a mandatory part” of any international trade – particularly those concerning energy futures. Today, all of us pay a very dear price for this arrangement, in everything that we buy and sell, in every gallon at the pump, in every postage stamp and airline ticket. The US$ is notorious for inflation and for deliberate currency manipulation by its government – something that it merely insists that it (alone) has the magical right to do. This has never been without great cost – you just don’t see it.
The Russian government is fully entitled to demand that final settlement for its products be in a currency that it controls, so that its citizens and traders are not exposed to this risk – it is moved “off-shore.” And, we have always done the same with our dollar.
In some respects I hope this has a moderating effect on the reckless behavior of American finance.
I, for one, am damned tired of paying for their little games.
LOL. The IMF’s predictions are about as accurate as the CBO’s.
Biden is doing a pretty good job of devaluing the dollar for every working American.
He’s put Americans Last.
Putin/Russia invaded Ukraine due to NATO concerns.
NATO/EU assist Ukraine by supplying defense materials and placing sanctions against Russia and many leaders.
Putin/Russia respond by forcing EU and others using their oil/gas to pay in Russian currency, strengthening Russian currency and weakening EU and US dollars.
Soooo, this was always about Russia protecting itself geographically and economically from the West.
Just seems like Putin is 4 moves ahead of the West and there are many countries interested in strengthening their own currency by weakening the Wests currencies. They may just follow this trend.
Can the west survive moving away from the US and EU dollar?
To be a good Leftist, one has to pretend to not know so very much.
Yesterday, Moscow told the EU, if it wanted to buy Russian oil and gas, it had to fund the transaction in Rubles through Russian banks. Now, a reasonable citizen would see that as an opportunity for the US to step in and supply the EU with as much petroleum products as we could. After all, the US, a short three years ago, was the world’s largest producer of crude oil and natural gas on the planet. The ramifications would be twofold, increasing our own exports and bolstering the petro-dollar.
But, oh no, that would mean the US would have to suspend its headlong rush to mechanically unsustainable, unproven technology. We would have to reopen the fields and get the EPA to walk back “the rules” so that we could restart the process of robust energy extraction. Except, Politically, that would be a setback for Biden. POLITICALLY!
In more ways than one, Ukraine is Ron Klain’s War.
It is and always has been perfectly sensible for any nation to demand final settlement of contracts for its products in a currency that it controls – and to have alternative venues for the execution of the trades which cannot be controlled by any hostile government. This is going to happen, and Russia is the nation that is easily big enough to finally do it.
We’ve been doing exactly the same thing with our currency. Most nations have. “Energy [futures …] trades” have always been the very-curious exception, and people are finally coming to their senses and asking, “howcum?”
I know that this is a very big part of why a US postage stamp now costs so much … why I pay so much to ship a package, or pay so much in “shipping.” Why I pay so much for an airline ticket. And I’m damned tired of “paying it because of Henry Kissinger!” The USA has been insisting on its right to manipulate its own currency as though there was no price to be paid for them doing it.
Well, there is, and we are(!) the ones who are right now being stuck with the bill. “Nothing’s free!”
Right now Russia is standing alone, but if the other BRICS nations join them in abandoning the US Petro Dollar, it will be game over.
People forget BRICS nations will soon be the producers of around 70% of the world oil supply since the fields in Saudi are going dry.
It is “game over” now, as it should be.
The “petro-Dollar” has cost everyone quite dearly. Russia is simply the first nation to say formally that “enough is enough.”
The USA has been playing games with currency manipulation for fifty years and it now loudly insists that it must always have the privilege of doing so. Well, traders have had to “hedge” against that – basically, buying insurance – and guess who pays the premiums?
I believe the game changer is Russia developing functioning hypersonic weaponry. Our crazy level of naval power is the main reason the world went along with our currency going fiat back in April ’71.
Our leaders will never openly admit it, but I believe the hypersonic platform has them off balance and utterly terrified.
A game changer indeed. I’m certain the story behind this gap in technology circles back to the same people who are more concerned with ‘White Fragility’ than actual defense.
I would hope this makes people see why the US Government via our SEC has gone after XRP/Ripple with a vengeance.
A neutral bridge currency for international monetary settlements was proposed back at Bretton Woods in 1944, but got torpedoed by JP Morgan Chase.
Putin has returned the gold standard for the Russian Federation. This will make the Ruble the single most stable currency in the world. All of you investing in gold might want to take notice to this. Will anyone prefer using any IMF fiat currency which is based on nothing, not even oil anymore? When Saddam Hussein dropped the U.S. dollar his country was invaded and he was hung shortly thereafter. A similar thing happened to Muammar Gaddafi when NATO helped overthrow his regime. My advice is to pay off all debts, invest in tangible assets like property, food, and water, guns and ammo. Or you could believe those globalists who are still telling you to wear a mask, get the next “vaccine” gene edit. Oh, and it’s the U.S. dollar which is worth less then a 1914 penny these days. Prices are only increasing because of its ongoing devaluation since federal reserve notes magically appeared out of nowhere at that time. I still have a U.S. ONE DOLLAR silver certificate note laying around somewhere.
What everybody here is forgetting is the fact that GOD is the one moving the chess pieces around,,,,,prophecy must and will be fulfilled. Please read Ezekiel 37-39, Matthew 24 and 25, Nahum, Jude, Joel, Amos, Revelation
