Tishwash: Parliamentary Economy: The government does not intend to borrow abroad to solve the financial crisis
The Parliamentary Commission on Economy and Investment confirmed on Saturday that the Iraqi government has no intention of borrowing abroad to solve the financial crisis and secure employee salaries.
Committee member Mithaq Ibrahim said in a statement to "Information", that "the government is able to avoid the financial crisis at the present time by using internal loans or activating some resources", pointing out that "activating the industry and agriculture can fill the financial losses due to the collapse of oil."
She added, "The government has a responsibility to search for other alternatives to move away from total dependence on oil revenues," noting that "the government does not intend for the time being to go towards external borrowing to solve the financial crisis it is going through to secure the salaries of employees."
She noted that "the salaries of employees will be fully secured for the current month," explaining that "the financial crisis may be observed directly during the next month in the event that oil prices continue to fall." link

Jeff ...Iraq showed you they had shut down their ISX in order to change and increase the exchange rate...This is real easy...if they have to shut down and stop the ISX to be able to change the rate that means that based on cause and effect they can't turn the ISX back on until the rate has changed. Right there they're telling you what you can look for to know exactly when the rate is gonna change. It's the ISX because they're telling you the ISX can not go back online until the rate has changed. [post 1 of 2]
Jeff So when the ISX goes back online the rate will have already changed...It's that easy. As of right now we do know that the ISX time period has only been extended through Saturday April 25th. Right there they're telling you that the ISX date for it to go back online and in service will be Sunday April 26th...by reinstating the ISX stock exchange on a Sunday that allows them to change and increase the exchange rate on a Sunday morning before the ISX goes back online at 10:00am Iraq time in the morning... There's only one Sunday left in the month of April after this weekend... The ISX has the handwriting all over it. [post 2 of 2]
Pimpy I bank personally at Wells Fargo. I have spoken to my Wells Fargo manager and when I went to go talk to him about the Iraqi dinar the first thing he said is, 'well just let me say this first and foremost. At the moment we don't buy nor do we sell or exchange Iraqi dinar.' Then he said, 'Having said that, once it's recognized internationally again that's different. Once it's on Forex.' He said, 'You'll walk into the bank. You'll get my attention. You will let me know what you have, how much you wanted to go ahead and deposit. I will let you know what the rate is and then we just go ahead make the deposit.' There's no 800 numbers and nothing like that...

Ariel: IQD Update from the Horse’s Mouth

What more do you need to see?
The SEC’s September 17, 2026 Innovation Exemption removes regulatory barriers, enabling the DTCC to initiate asset tokenization on Ripple (XRP Ledger) in October. This aligns with the Central Bank of Iraq’s (CBI) digital Dinar (dIQD) framework, which enforces 1:1 parity with physical IQD through a permissioned ledger governed by the Trade Bank of Iraq, Rafidain, and Rasheed Banks.

A Observation So To Speak: The Reset
Everyone reads September 30 as a disarmament deadline. Read it the other way: it’s the last day the old security architecture exists.
Militias holding weapons and militias holding hoarded cash are frequently the same gentlemen, and the weapons deadline functions as a census. Compliance with the handover signals compliance with the financial order that follows seven days later.

Let's let's move from that point on into where we are on Intel. Now I will say this: it is getting quiet. It's very difficult to get Consistent revelation in terms of intel from our many sources, and even though we're trying every day-and I mean every day, Saturday, Sunday, every day-to get it. Sometimes we get it. Sometimes it's a little light today. I would call it a little bit light.

GP Q: Why the Clarity Act Matters to Currency Holders
9-16-2026
CLARITY ACT — WHY IT MATTERS TO CURRENCY HOLDERS
The Senate did fail to advance the CLARITY Act today. The cloture vote was a procedural step requiring 60 votes; it was not a final vote declaring the bill d**d forever.
WHAT WE KNOW: The bill concerns regulation of digital assets, including SEC/CFTC jurisdiction.
Stephanie Starr: If Congress Advances this
9-15-2026
If Congress advances this, the United States is formally acknowledging Bitcoin as a strategic national asset — something potentially worth holding on the federal balance sheet rather than automatically selling.
Why that matters? Protects U.S. exposure to a scarce digital asset. Strengthens America’s position in the global digital-asset economy. Signals that crypto is becoming part of mainstream financial policy. Encourages long-term regulatory and institutional certainty. Forces other nations to think seriously about their own digital-asset reserves. Moves the conversation from “Should crypto exist?” to “How does America compete?”
Ariel: THE SEQUENCING - WHY ORDER MATTERS 9/12/26
VIII. THE SEQUENCING — WHY ORDER MATTERS
The CLARITY Act must pass before the Dinar revalues. Here's the mechanical reason:
1. CLARITY Act passes → digital tokens backed by sovereign currencies become legally recognized settlement instruments under US law.
2. SEC issues no-action letters → exchanges can list the revalued Dinar token without securities law exposure.

Clare: Al-Zaidi meets with Trump again in New York to discuss the withdrawal of US forces, combating corruption, and the course of the political process.
An informed source revealed on Friday that Prime Minister Ali al-Zubaidi is expected to visit the United States to participate in the work of the United Nations General Assembly in New York, which will include a meeting with US President Donald Trump to discuss issues related to relations between Baghdad and Washington and internal developments in Iraq.
The source said that al-Zaidi will head to the United States after the end of his European tour, which includes France and Germany, indicating that his meeting with Trump will focus on three main issues: the withdrawal of US forces from Iraq within the agreed timeframes, the results of the anti-corruption campaign and the expected steps within it, in addition to the course of the political process in the country.
