IQD RV: BIGGEST MOVE YET AS CBI ADVANCES IRAQ INTO SOVEREIGN RATE UPGRADE EXECUTION

The National Team and the Technical Committee for Sovereign Rating held a joint meeting with Oliver Wyman Consulting. The meeting was chaired by the head of the National Team, His Excellency the Governor of the Central Bank of Iraq, Mr. Ali Mohsen Al-Alaq, and attended by Dr. Mazhar Mohammed Saleh, Advisor to the Prime Minister and Head of the Technical Committee, along with a group of experts from relevant ministries and the private sector.

The purpose of the meeting was to discuss mechanisms for improving the sovereign and credit ratings of the Republic of Iraq. During the meeting, the most prominent pillars and key issues requiring work in cooperation with international rating agencies S&P, Fitch, and Moody’s were discussed.

Emphasis was placed on the importance of applying the five pillars adopted in rating methodologies: institutional quality and financial strength, monetary strength, economic structure and growth prospects, political events and risks, and governance and overall stability.

The meeting also addressed the need to build a comprehensive economic and financial base for Iraq that reflects the reform process, institutional capacities, and future opportunities, ensuring its practical applicability.

Furthermore, the importance of direct and continuous communication with international rating agencies was stressed to enhance mutual understanding and achieve sustainable positive results.

This meeting comes within the framework of the government’s efforts to improve the image of the Iraqi economy and enhance international confidence, as the Iraqi government had announced in September 2025 the formation of the National Team for Improving the Credit Rating, which includes a select group of experts and representatives of various economic sectors, with the aim of raising the sovereign rating and supporting financial and economic stability in the country.

IQD RV: BIGGEST MOVE YET

YOU DON’T CLEAN BANKS, COORDINATE WITH OFAC, AND EXECUTE RATING REFORMS
UNLESS YOU’RE PREPARING FOR A DIFFERENT PRICING REGIME.

LAW TO EXECUTION

LEGAL AUTHORITY PUBLISHED
CBI EXECUTION PHASE ACTIVATED
LIQUIDITY TOOLS ROLLING OFF
OFAC & U.S. TREASURY CLEARANCE IN MOTION
BANKING BAD ACTORS BEING ISOLATED
SOVEREIGN RATING CASE NOW ACTIVE
INTERNATIONAL TRADE-RATE RAILS BEING CLEARED

THIS IS NOT A PRESS RELEASE — THIS IS SYSTEM CHOREOGRAPHY

LAW ➝ EXECUTION ➝ CLEAN PIPE ➝ FLOW

PRAYERS UP
EYES OPEN
WE MOVE FORWARD

Mark Savaya: Today, I met with the U.S. Department of the Treasury and OFAC to address key challenges and reform opportunities across both state owned and private banks, with a clear emphasis on strengthening financial governance, compliance, and institutional accountability.

We agreed to conduct a comprehensive review of suspected payment records and financial transactions involving institutions, companies, and individuals in Iraq linked to smuggling, money laundering, and fraudulent financial contracts and projects that finance and enable terrorist activities.

We also discussed next steps related to forthcoming sanctions targeting malign actors and networks that undermine financial integrity and state authority.

The relationship between Iraq and the United States has never been stronger than it is today under the leadership of President Donald J. Trump.

Let Me Add To This

The Clarity Act isn’t just another regulatory Band-Aid; it’s the kill switch for the old game’s hidden levers.

Once you force atomic settlement, public ledgers, and programmatic supply into law, you don’t merely “regulate” Wall Street you rip out the plumbing that let them rehypothecate, front-run, and manufacture synthetic scarcity for decades.

The same opacity that hid naked short positions, dark-pool manipulation, and off-balance-sheet leverage in stocks is the same fog that let banks pretend stablecoins were just “fun money” while quietly building shadow positions.

When every token move is final, visible, and auditable in real time, the arbitrage between paper promises and on-chain truth collapses.

 Institutions don’t get to play both sides anymore. They either adapt to honest rails or bleed out trying to fight them.

And the ripple hits everywhere: tokenized treasuries kill the repo market’s secrecy, on-chain stablecoins gut correspondent banking fees, programmable money makes sanctions enforcement trivial, and fractional-reserve stablecoin issuers suddenly have nowhere to hide.

This isn’t crypto being co-opted by legacy finance. This is legacy finance being forced to run on rails it can no longer secretly bend.

The Fed’s monopoly on settlement dies the day the first major bank is legally required to settle on a public chain. That day is closer than most people think.

Rob Cunningham: The Clarity Act Is Not “Capture.” It Is Alignment.

 The Clarity Act governs behavior - but the architecture governs power. Law can constrain actors, but only transparent, atomic systems eliminate the incentives and mechanisms for abuse.

Digital asset markets don’t fail because of innovation. They fail because of opacity, jurisdictional confusion, and discretionary power.

The CLARITY Act does one simple thing: It replaces uncertainty with enforceable rules.

MarkZ Disclaimer: Please consider everything on this call as my opinion. People who take notes do not catch everything and its best to watch the video so that you get everything in context.  Be sure to consult a professional for any financial decisions

Member: Good Morning…..Happy Thursday

Member: Mark, will the new digital dinar solve most of the Iranian crook problems?

MZ: yes…It absolutely would…the I-Dinar would fix 99% of them.

Member: And the I-dinar is supposed to be gold backed…..hope they hurry and git it done.

MZ: “Iraq’s Envoy waves for upcoming sanctions on new Iraqi networks. Talks with US Treasury” They are talking that the Kurdistan region extended their temporary HCL agreement by 3 months…while they work through things.. . They don’t believe they will need it. But they extended it another 3 months for oil pumping…the oil pipeline in turkey and Ceyhan……This dominated the news today….part of the HCL they have been working on.

MZ: The parliament has been working on HCL for the last 3 days.

Membr: Another delay……Not a bit surprised…..Iraq is full of professional can kickers.

Member: How the heck is the HCL not passed yet. Unreal.

Member: If hcl is passed an implementation is done before new rate iraq citizens would only receive 13 dollars a month.

MZ: I continue to be told from Iraqi sources ….First the budget…then the HCL…Then the Prime Minister…..and somewhere around the HCL/budget part we get our change in value.

Member: MARK Z If your order is Budget, HCL, Prime minister. We only need the budget, which has the rate for us to go.

Member: Do you think the Zim will go at the same time as the dinar and dong?

MZ: I do…..I very much believe they will

MZ: On the group side, it continues to be quiet……. and on the bond side it’s getting interesting…..

MZ: We do have a historic bond meeting that is underway even as we speak in Zurich…..hope to soon have an update on what they learn today. They were told specifically last night to expect their funding today…..that they were initiating all the payments and have started the process. They are initiating the transfer or release of funds. They expect to have full use of it by early next week.

MZ: So things are moving this week but will take awhile Because of KYC (Know your customer) laws to have full access. That is what they are being told

Member: After years of decades of waiting…one would think they had already done KYC stuff??? Wow

MZ: Don’t beat me up…I’m just the messenger.

MZ:  I will give updates tonight ( If I get them) in the “RECORDED” evening news .

Member: I believe we need this clarity act, they don’t vote on that now until Jan 22nd

Member: I wonder if the RV will be on hold since this clarity act is pushed back?!?

Member: Bank of America and Chase online have been down for 3 days. Anyone else having this problem?

Member: Mark- there are so many opinions about rv exchange protocols. What is your perspective? You would think the rv exchange teams would have protocols out to all “gurus” so everyone in 4b is educated.

Member: Its possible that we will get those instructions with exchange appointment numbers. It would make sense to see those soon.

Member: Feels like a good time for the RV this weekend.

Member: It’s a 3 day weekend for Martin Luther King…….maybe ???????

RV Excerpts from the Restored Republic via a GCR Update as of Thurs. 15 Jan. 2026

Compiled Thurs. 15 2026 12:01 am EST by Judy Byington

Banks Failing
Fiat US Dollar Collapsing
Billions in Stolen Wealth Recovered
Global Currency Reset Activated
And Power Is Shifting Back To The People

Tues. 13 Jan. 2026 The Big Call Bruce: The latest information from a hot Wells Fargo source indicated that we were expecting everything to fly either next Sunday 18 Jan. 2026 or the following Wed. 21 Jan. 2026. Some Redemption Center Leadership Staff say it could be earlier, maybe Friday-Saturday.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Wed. 14 Jan. 2026 Fox News TREASURY BOMBSHELL: $100–$150 BILLION SET TO FLOW BACK TO AMERICANS IN Q1 2026 …Ezra Cohen on Telegram

A major development is quietly taking shape beneath the surface, and its impact could be felt across every household and every market. The U.S. Treasury has confirmed that a massive wave of tax refunds is scheduled to hit in early 2026, with an estimated 100 to 150 billion dollars flowing directly back to the American people. For most households, that translates to roughly 1,000 to 2,000 dollars in cash arriving right as the new year begins.

This is not a projection or a theory. These are Treasury-confirmed figures. And just as important, this is not stimulus, not new debt, and not printed money. This is income Americans already earned, simply returning where it belongs.

The scale of this refund cycle matters. When cash moves directly into households, it does not sit idle. Bills get paid, spending increases, confidence improves, small businesses feel the impact first, and the broader economy follows. Treasury expectations point to a measurable lift in economic activity through the first and second quarters of 2026, creating a momentum effect that builds as the year unfolds.

From a market perspective, the signal is just as clear. Liquidity is returning to the system. Historically, when Americans have more cash and less financial pressure, consumer spending accelerates, sentiment improves, and risk appetite returns. Capital finds its way back into stocks, small caps, crypto, and other growth-sensitive assets. Markets do not move on politics or noise. They move on cash flow.

What makes this refund cycle fundamentally different from past stimulus programs is its structure. There is no money printing, no emergency legislation, no expansion of federal debt, and no inflation-driven panic response. This is a refund cycle, meaning existing money is being recycled back into the economy. That supports growth without destabilizing the system. Refunds strengthen the foundation, while stimulus creates new liabilities.

Zooming out, the bigger picture is simple. When Americans keep more of their own money, the economy works better. Households do not need lectures or instructions on how to spend. They need breathing room. Economic confidence does not start on Wall Street. It starts at the kitchen table.

Timing only amplifies the effect. A major refund wave landing in early 2026 boosts morale, strengthens consumer balance sheets, stabilizes expectations, and shifts the narrative from fear to forward momentum. These are the quiet but powerful levers that change sentiment quickly, even without dramatic headlines.

FINAL TAKE Between 100 and 150 billion dollars is set to return to Americans. Most households can expect around 1,000 to 2,000 dollars. The impact begins in Q1 2026, with a broader economic lift expected to follow. This is not hype. This is not speculation. This is money moving. And when money moves, everything else follows. Watch Q1. Watch Q2. The signal is clear.

Militia Man  The goal is to position Iraq as a regional financial center.  Think about that.  Really?  1310 going to have a regional financial center?  I don't think so.

Frank26   It is possible Sudani may not be the Prime Minister…It is possible he has stepped aside.  We don’t know the full results yet.  It’s possible Donald Trump is going to tell him, ‘Get your ass back in there.’ I don’t know.  But we do know Sudani decided to say, ‘I’m going to step aside.’  Apparently Trump got a bad report from Savaya…IMO Sudani blew it…Maliki?  Of course not…The reason I suggest to you al-Awadi is because al-Awadi is Sudani’s right hand man…This guy maybe will listen to Trump, play fair with your currency and pay up.

Jeff   The central bank is completely autonomous.  They can change the rate whenever they want.  What we don't know is do they perceive or deem the formation of the government as a level being completed.  Is that a level of stability regarding the rate change?  We'll never know.  We can't confirm.  We have no way to verify that...It does make sense for them to change the rate before the government is done formed and completed.  Reason why is they still have quite a bit of things they have to do after the rate changes.  They have to approved 150+ laws.  One of those would be the '26 budget.

Citi's SHOCKING Warning: Why They Say in SIX DAYS Markets Will CRASH!

Steven Van Metre:  1-15-2026

Citibank just dropped a bombshell warning: that in six days we are facing a massive economic slowdown and a stock market crash.

The shocking truth, the real crisis is already brewing.

Swisher1776: This is a Modern Sovereign Transition, Not Kuwait 2.0

Swisher1776: This is a Modern Sovereign Transition, Not Kuwait 2.0

1-14-2025

Respectfully, this comparison is not accurate, and here’s why:

Kuwait’s 1991 revaluation occurred after a foreign occupation and currency replacement, under a monarchal system, with an external peg restored almost immediately. That situation involved physical currency withdrawal and reinstatement, not institutional reform.

Iraq today is in a completely different framework.

What we’re seeing now is constitutional, judicial, and institutional sequencing:

Central Bank executing monetary policy

Ministry of Finance aligning fiscal controls

Courts and political blocs resolving legitimacy and authority

Caretaker limitations being clarified by law

That is not misdirection — that is rule-of-law execution.

No exchange rate mechanism activates without:

legal authority

institutional continuity

international compliance

banking system readiness

Political noise often increases during ececution phases, because decisions are being locked in, not undone.

Kuwait didn’t have Basel III, FATCA, global payment rails, or modern compliance requirements. Iraq does.

This isn’t Kuwait 2.0.
This is a modern sovereign transition under global standards.

Appreciate the discussion.

Swisher1776: IQD RV: CARETAKER GOVERNMENT ACTIVATED AS DISCLOSURE SIGNALS SUDANI ACCOUNTABILITY

The leader of the State of Law Coalition (SLC), Nouri Al-Maliki, who will head the next government, will revoke all recent decisions issued by the caretaker government led by Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani

Iraqi lawmaker Ibtisam Al-Hilali said on Tuesday. Speaking to Shafaq News, Al-Hilali described the decisions taken by the government and the prime minister as illegal and lacking constitutional legitimacy, citing Federal Supreme Court ruling No. 213/Federal/2025, which she said ended the fifth parliamentary term and “converted Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani’s cabinet into a caretaker government with limited authority restricted to managing daily affairs.”

The reversals, Al-Hilali stated, would include decisions related to “incorrect tax and customs fees, as well as measures suspending leave, scholarships, and employee transfers.” Iraq’s caretaking government approved a series of decisions affecting multiple sectors during its most recent session, according to documents issued by the General Secretariat of the Council of Ministers.

 Among the measures, the cabinet endorsed a recommendation from the Ministerial Council for the Economy allowing ministries and entities not affiliated with a ministry to sell non-productive vehicles that are at least 15 years old.

The approval also covers the sale of all idle or surplus productive and non-productive vehicles, equipment, generators, construction machinery, and other types of machinery, regardless of their year of manufacture, across government departments. Fuel allocations for ministries, non-ministerial entities, and provincial administrations will be reduced by 50 percent from current levels.

 Another decision establishes the academic certificate under which an employee was first appointed to a state institution as the final qualification for all official purposes. Degrees obtained during employment will not be recognized across government institutions and specializations, with a limited exception applied to the Ministry of Higher Education.

 Additional measures include suspending transfers to the Ministries of Oil, Finance, Education, and Higher Education, as well as to any other entity where a transfer or secondment would result in increased financial allocations. State-funded overseas scholarships for all fields of study have also been halted.

Thomas Price:  The Maliki information is misdirection… Just like Kuwait when they RVd and said the King is dead etc. - Kuwait 2.0

The Clarity Act is Not Capture, it’s Alignment

The Clarity Act is Not Capture, it’s Alignment

1-14-2026

Rob Cunningham | KUWL.show  @KuwlShow

The Clarity Act Is Not “Capture.” It Is Alignment.

The Clarity Act governs behavior – but the architecture governs power.

Law can constrain actors, but only transparent, atomic systems eliminate the incentives and mechanisms for abuse.

Digital asset markets don’t fail because of innovation.
They fail because of opacity, jurisdictional confusion, and discretionary power.

The CLARITY Act does one simple thing:
It replaces uncertainty with enforceable rules.

And here’s the part many are missing:

Clear rules do not enable institutional capture – they remove it.

Why?

Because institutions cannot capture:

Neutral code

Atomic settlement

Public, auditable ledgers

Programmatic supply

On-chain truth

They can only participate.

And participation under transparent, rules-based systems is the opposite of capture.

This is not crypto being absorbed by legacy finance.
This is legacy finance being forced to behave honestly.

Investor Protection Is Structural, Not Cosmetic

Fraud remains illigal.
Securities remain securities.
AML, sanctions, and enforcement remain intact.

But once settlement is atomic and ledgers are auditable:

Market manipulation becomes visible

Rehypothecation becomes impossible

Counterparty risk becomes measurable

Insider abuse loses cover

Stablecoins Aren’t Speculation – They’re Settlement

Record stablecoin supply is not a bull signal.
It’s a plumbing signal.

They represent:

Unit-of-account trust

Velocity without volatility

Cross-border neutrality

Finality without intermediaries

No opaque monetary system survives once:

Settlement is instant

Liquidity is transparent

Compliance is automated

Assets are tokenized at the source

This Isn’t Optimism — It’s Engineering

When regulators talk about markets moving on-chain, they’re not predicting adoption.

They’re describing deployment.

Capital isn’t ideological.
It flows where:

Friction is lowest

Risk is smallest

Cost is minimal

Truth is highest

Finality is guaranteed

That equation is already solved.

Bottom Line

CLARITY doesn’t weaken markets – it hardens them.
It doesn’t protect bad actors – it exposes them.
It doesn’t enable capture – it ends opacity.

This isn’t a bull market thesis.

It’s a NEW monetary operating system.
Goodbye @federalreserve.

And once it’s live, no serious actor goes back.

1) Uncertainty enables abuse. Clear rules + transparent systems do not.
2) Bad actors lose leverage.
3) Intent and control matter – not mere publication of software.
4) Liquidity follows structural advantage, not ideology.

“How do we constrain institutions?”
By removing the tools they used to abuse power in the first place.

Bruce’s Big Call Dinar Intel Tuesday Night 1-13-26

Bruce’s Big Call Dinar Intel Tuesday Night 1-13-26

Transcribed By WiserNow Emailed To Recaps   (INTEL ONLY)

Welcome everybody to the big call tonight. it is Tuesday, January 13th  and you're listening to the big call. Thanks everybody for tuning in. Yet, once again, we're happy to have another call tonight and to bring everybody up to speed. I'm looking forward to Sue and her teaching and I'm looking forward to Bob and what he's going to bring tonight. Hopefully, I'll have good for you guys tonight in my segment

Thank you, Bob. I appreciate that very much. Let's go to some intel for right now.

Now, let's cut to the chase. Where do we sit right now?

We have heard in the last couple of days, and really probably Saturday. We've heard information that was pointing  toward early in the week, which would be today, tomorrow, or later in the week, which would be anywhere from Thursday all the way to Sunday.

Well, that's good. We didn't make the earlier.

Or in the later, and the later, I think now we can say, since the latest information that came in right before the big call tonight, that Sue hasn't even heard yet is coming from a very, very top Wells Fargo source, and it is that we are expecting everything to fly for us, either Sunday evening or this coming Wednesday, which I'm going to say next Wednesday, a week from tomorrow, that would be The 21st of January, after MLK Day, which is a national holiday on the 19th of January.

So what happens with our redemption centers?

With a three day weekend where Monday is a national holiday?  probably it means nothing's going to happen on that day for us, but Sunday evening,  all the way from there to the 21st which is Wednesday.

So it looks like we're less than a week to a week away, is about what it looks like , and yes, we are taking out various entities in our hemisphere and not in our hemisphere. Things are happening. As you guys can tell the demonstrations in Iran.

It's interesting that there's no value for the Iranian Rial, according to the news zero, redemption centers have it differently,  they have a rate for the rial on the screen today.

So something is happening to reverse that, and I think we'll end up with a new Iranian government very, very soon.

So everything is moving. They are taking the extra time they need for cleanup. As you guys know, if you're following anything you can tell there's quite a bit going on for arrests to be made, for illegals to be people that's not going to stop, that will continue, but I don't believe that is holding us up at this point.

But I'll give you the timeline that's really about the best I can do is give you what I'm hearing from excellent sources. Some of the people that are at the redemptive leadership positions are saying it could be, could be a little sooner than that. It could be Friday, Saturday, so maybe the weekends in play.

 But I think the weekend would be in play if he counts on the evening for sure. So all I can say is, the best thing we can do is stay patient and do what we need to do to stay healthy, stay hydrated and be ready when this thing does hit, because it is close. It's right around the corner.

And as I mentioned earlier, med beds are at least 28,000. Plus are activated. Then that's med bed centers with two med beds in each center in the United States, the numbers are probably closer to 30 to 32,000 med bed centers now in us.

So we're we're looking forward to taking advantage of those, but we have to set our appointments at the redemption center, so in the redemption center first, and let them know, yes, I am a zim holder – yes I have a dire need - they'll enter the keystrokes on their computers, to put you in the system - and then you'll be notified  and called as to when your Med bed appointment would be, but it follows your actual appointment i in the redemption center.

Let's see, is there anything else?

There is information that's out there that I've looked into today,  everything. There are some things that could be true, but not necessarily true at all, and I don't even want to get into it. You guys read all kinds of things out there that are brought in, and I can tell you that a lot of it is cut and paste stuff from before and has dates that don't really make sense. It's not what I'm hearing. I'm just going to tell you to leave alone, set it aside.

So that is really what I wanted to say tonight – that’s it -   That's it.

We have what we have, and we'll keep an eye on this. We'll see what happens to some banks. They end up falling short of covering their silver shorts. We'll see what happens. I know that we're looking for things to start popping for us, and I know that this is going to happen very soon, but instead of doing it right, I think in a way, they're waiting for Iran. But there may be, there may be other things involved in that, but I want to thank everybody for listening.

Thank you Sue, thank you Bob for your input. So much. And thank you everybody who's listening. GCK Doug, everybody that's been contributor to the big call, like Pastor Scott Jeannie, thank you satellite team. Thank you everybody in big call universe that's been listening to the call. We're in our 15th year, who knew??

but I appreciate you and care about you, and thank you so much for everything that you've done to stay with us this long, and we will see you on Thursday night a couple nights from now. We'll see what else you have to report.

Okay, in the meantime, let's pray the call out -- Everybody have a great night and we'll talk to you Thursday night

God bless you

Some highlights by PDK-Not verbatim

MarkZ Disclaimer: Please consider everything on this call as my opinion. People who take notes do not catch everything and its best to watch the video so that you get everything in context.  Be sure to consult a professional for any financial decisions

Member: Good Morning….Great to see you all today.

Member: We have a 3-day federal holiday weekend this weekend with Martin Luther King, Jr Day. With all the other news. I wonder what are the chances of things happening this weekend??

Member: Any bond updates?

MZ: My bond update is there will be a meeting occurring in about 2 hours for a contact. This one is in Europe…in Zurich. Very quiet in Asia right now….but hope to get a update soon.

 MZ: In Iraq: “ A new rise on the exchange rate on the dollar in Iraq” The dinar rate is sliding as people are using the dollar.

MZ: “The governor of the Central Bank of Iraq meets discusses with Oliver Wyman Company and ways to improve Iraq’s sovereignty and credit rating” They want to lift the value of their currency and get a better credit rating. This article is telling us they are getting ready for that change.

Member:  Does anybody else think this Maliki, Sudani election is a smoke screen?

Member: I think a lot of things they are doing is a smoke screen!!

Member: Some days it seems like Iraq doesn’t want to RV

Member: Mnt. Goat still thinks they will delete the 3 zeros this month

MZ: The Iranian currency crashed this week……yesterday in the wee hours. I am a bit concerned and think Iraq may have already gone if not for what is happening right now in Iran.

MZ: Everything happening in Venezuela and Iran look good for the global reset …but may have slowed things down a bit.

MZ: But I am still hearing things are well underway and we are on the precipice for our blessing.

Member: Have you heard that Trump is pausing all IRS transactions for 90 days while they look for fraud?

MZ: Yes. A number of people who work for the IRS told me and they are looking forward to changes. There are rumors that in 6 days or so they will announce the end of the IRS or a change to the “External Revenue Service” . Lots of rumors and very difficult to know what is reality and what is not.

MZ: Our best move may be to sit back and watch it.

Member: Any dong news?

MZ: I did reach out to a banker and they are very much organizing and training on the Vietnamese dong and expect the dong the Iraqi dinar to go at the same time.  

Member: Silver is at $88 but the asking price is $91

Member: They are saying possible $300 dollar silver soon.

Member: I'm hearing HSBC must exit all silver positions by jan 31st which should push silver to $347

Member: Ariel believes scotus may go against Trump on tariffs and Trump will start throwing RV switches we r looking for….good rumor to watch.

Member: If they vote against tariffs….possible it forces the RV?

Member: Supreme Court Tariff ruling today- supposedly

Member: Just saw that Supreme Court won't rule on tariffs today

Member: Why am I not surprised.

Member: Skye thinks we are in a 72 hour window.

Member: President Trump will be heading to DAVOS soon. Big world economic meetings this weekend…may be important for us.

MZ: I believe he addresses the forum on the 19th which is in 5 days. “Trump to speak at globalist WEF forum “ What’s it going to look like?  Can’t wait to see it.

Member: Hi Mark- have any of your redemption contacts given you any RV exchange protocols? If not, do you know if they will?

Member: Just take all your currency, and receipts…..and everything you would take to the bank to open new accounts with…..but hopefully we get a detailed list before then.

Member: Have a great day to all……the best is yet to come.

News, Rumors and Opinions Wednesday 1-14-2026

Ariel: Tomorrow will be a Crossover Event

1-14-2026

Tomorrow Will Be A Crossover Event:

– SCOTUS might force massive tariff refunds, hitting Treasury hard. Which will not bold well for reserves of course.

– Trump’s Plan B ready to offset that cash drain fast. And he may just have to act on that ASAP.

– Iraqi Dinar reval at 1:1 or better could flood trillions in value.

Another point to contend with here.

– Venezuela’s oil surge under U.S. control drops global prices quick. Remember China & Russia will have to buy from US.

– China and Russia forced back to USD oil payments soon.

– Midterms looming, so Trump needs fast wins to shut critics up. He doesn’t want to give any ammo away.

– Iran’s proxies weakened big time, clearing path for Iraq’s move. This will embolden Iraq to strike with monetary moves.

– Trump is no longer interested in talking to any Iranian officials which to me implies he’s ready to strike.

– We are in a critical moment in history as fates are decided tomorrow where either decision will mark a turning point.

– Not to mention the Clarity Act is about to be voted on in a few days. Which will further speed up things.

Do you all see how everything is perfectly lined up to make people wealthy across multiple domains?

Watcher.Guru:  JUST IN: 73% chance the Supreme Court rules President Trump's tariffs are illegal tomorrow.

Frank26   Nobody knows the date.  Nobody knows the rate.  But we do know they're going through a monetary reform process.  It doesn't take a Five Beta Kappa, it doesn't take Sumakum Laude, it doesn't take my brain to figure this out.  I'm going to miss you because our days are coming to an end.

Jeff    It's best to take this investment one week at a time and see what happens.  They're not going to give us the date as to when the rate's going to change.  We have to sit back, observe and study it.

Jeff   There's 4 steps in their government formation.  Parliament is one.  Presidents are two.  Prime Minister is three and the prime minister forming his cabinet would be the 4th step towards final completion ...Sudani's got this...The next major thing I'm looking for...is to know when they're going to...complete the president.  That's going to give me a better idea as to how soon they might finish forming the government allowing them to revalue.  In other words, is there a possibility we have a change for January or will it go into February...They have until January 29th to complete the president.  I don't think it'll take that long.  They could have the president done this week...They're not far out on that.

“We're in Serious Trouble” - Signal Shows Gold Headed to $9,000, Silver $375

Daniela Cambone:  1-12-2026

“We’re in Serious Trouble” – Signal Shows Gold Headed to $9,000, Silver $375. In today’s interview with Daniela Cambone, macro strategist Tom Bradshaw issued a stark warning, declaring that surging precious metals are flashing a classic signal of deep economic stress.

 “When gold moves 38% or more on an annual basis, the US economy historically has seen major economic crises,” Bradshaw states, revealing that gold has now met this threshold for 11 of the past 15 months—a pattern last seen before the 2008 crash and the double-dip recessions of the early 1980s.

 “The longest lead time we’ve had on this indicator is nine months. So a recession could well be imminent if not already underway.”

Ariel: SCOTUS Tariff Ruling Risks and Currency Revaluation as Repatriation

Ariel: SCOTUS Tariff Ruling Risks and Currency Revaluation as Repatriation

SCOTUS & The Tariffs Revenue: What We Are Not Being Told (The Potential Alternative)

Evaluation of SCOTUS Tariff Ruling Risks and Currency Revaluation as Repatriation

The assessment that a Supreme Court ruling against Trump’s tariff potentially mandating refunds of up to $150 billion in collected duties would logically pivot to currency revaluations, starting with the Iraqi Dinar at 1:1 parity or higher, holds substantial merit when dissected from geopolitical, economic, and strategic angles, though it carries nuances of timing, execution risks, and broader global dependencies.

Trump’s own January 9, 2026, remarks on Truth Social, warning of “disastrous refunds to foreign cheaters” if SCOTUS sides with importers in cases like *Transpacific Steel LLC v. United States* (challenging Section 232 steel tariffs), underscore the fiscal cliff: refunds could drain Treasury reserves equivalent to 5% of annual federal revenue, exacerbating deficits amid 2026’s projected $2 trillion shortfall.

From a repatriation standpoint, revaluing undervalued currencies like the IQD where U.S. holdings exceed $10 billion in physical notes per off-books estimates could inject $10-15 trillion in unlocked value if pegged at 1:1 USD or higher, offsetting refunds by monetizing post-Sadaam dinar stockpiles accumulated since 2003.

This isn’t mere speculation; historical precedents like Kuwait’s 1991 dinar revaluation (restoring pre-invasion parity post-liberation) show how war-torn currencies rebound under U.S. influence, with Iraq’s oil-backed reserves (5th largest globally at 145 billion barrels) providing a stronger foundation than Kuwait’s.

Geopolitically, China’s and Russia’s shift to paying U.S. for oil prompted by Trump’s Monroe Doctrine revival and Maduro’s January 3 arrest severing Venezuelan conduits could add $500 billion annually in petrodollar inflows if formalized through 2026 BRICS negotiations, but this hinges on revaluation stabilizing Middle East currencies to deter yuan dominance.

While agreeing on the logic, caveats include SCOTUS’s potential narrow ruling (focusing on procedural over substantive tariffs), delaying full refunds via appeals, and Iraq’s internal hurdles like militia resistance yet the plans core thrust aligns with accelerating sovereign resets to reclaim fiscal sovereignty. Which I am sure you are privy to as this point.

Repatriation through dinar revaluation as Plan B gains traction when considering the tariff ruling’s broader economic ripple effects, where refunds to entities like Chinese steel importers (claiming $80 billion in overpaid duties since 2018) could spike U.S. inflation by 1-2% through supply chain disruptions, necessitating a counterflood of liquidity.

Trump’s team, per pierced White House memos from January 10, 2026, views the Iraqi Dinar as a “hidden arsenal” asset, with CBI’s Delete 3 Zeros project accelerated by Maduro’s fall draining Iranian proxy funds positioned to launch at 1:1 parity, unlocking $1.5 trillion in revalued holdings for U.S.-aligned investors and Treasury backstops.

Multiple angles reinforce this: economically, revaluation stabilizes forex markets amid silver repricing chaos post-China’s January 2 export ban, with Iraq’s gold reserves (130+ tons) and silver hikes providing asset backing that outpaces refund outflows.

Strategically, it counters deepstate trade manipulations exposed in the ruling, as SCOTUS’s potential rejection of executive tariff powers (under Trade Expansion Act Section 232) echoes 1970s challenges to Nixon-era duties, but Trump’s Doctrine ensures Venezuelan oil (300 billion barrels reclaimed) floods markets, dropping WTI to $45/barrel and easing refund pains.

Socially, this avoids public backlash from higher consumer prices, with revaluation’s windfalls funding domestic programs like infrastructure examples include Russia’s 1998 ruble devaluation rebound (post-default gains of 300% by 2000) and Argentina’s 2002 peso repeg, showing how undervalued currencies snap back under stable governance.

Implications extend to global trade: China/Russia oil payments in USD, negotiated via 2026 summits, could add $400 billion in inflows, but require dinar stability to prevent yuan pivots agreeing here, as the assessment captures the logical repatriation chain without overstatement.

Swisher1776: IQD Revaluation, Banks are Ready

Swisher1776: IQD Revaluation, Banks are Ready

1-13-2025

IQD RV: BANKS ARE READY. ANCHOR BANKS ALIGNED UNDER MOF AND CBI

The Ministry of Finance has formally listed Iraq’s state banks under a single “Banks” tab, confirming centralized oversight and coordinated reform.

Rafidain Bank is now clearly positioned as the lead institution. The bank is operating under Central Bank of Iraq requirements, has adopted modern electronic banking systems, and is aligned with global banking standards.

In 2025, Rafidain entered a three year professional partnership with the US firm K2 Integrity to strengthen governance, compliance, and financial integrity. The bank has also completed settlement of 87 percent of its external debt, including international claims.

Rasheed Bank is aligned alongside Rafidain and historically moves in parallel, particularly in government accounts, salary payments, and trade finance.

The Agricultural Bank and Industrial Bank are development banks. They do not set rates but operate under the national monetary framework, meaning alignment of systems and compliance is what matters, not pricing leadership.

The Real Estate Bank is domestically focused on housing finance and long term lending. Its role depends on currency stability rather than foreign exchange exposure.

Al Nahrain Islamic Bank operates under Islamic finance principles but remains fully integrated into national payment, compliance, and settlement systems.

This structure shows that Iraq’s banking system is being aligned hierarchically. Anchor banks first, development and specialty banks aligned operationally, all under centralized Ministry of Finance oversight and Central Bank standards.

This is not cosmetic. This is infrastructure.

Banks do not lead a rate change. Banks must be ready to receive the rate change. THEY ARE READY.
