Bessent has been the quiet operator on the Iraq file since the Clarity Act framework first landed on Treasury’s desk. The G20 finance track is where the back-channel agreements on currency pegs get locked not in press conferences, not in Congressional hearings. In rooms with no recording devices.

Dollar's Final Break? “RUSH TO THE EXITS” Could Trigger Global Financial CHAOS | Robert Kientz
Liberty and Finance: 8-27-2026
The U.S. dollar and Treasury markets could be approaching a critical breaking point as rising debt, persistent inflation, and declining confidence put increasing pressure on the financial system, according to Rob Kientz of the Freedom Report.
Kientz argues that de-dollarization may unfold slowly at first, but could suddenly accelerate when the next recession forces nations to “rush to the exits” and rotate out of dollars and U.S. bonds.
