Over this Memorial Day Weekend Prosperity Packages were going out and Tiers 1-4a, Groups and SKRs were being fully funded into accounts, though not made liquid until us in Tier 4b went.
Over the past several days the US Note has gone through a conversion process so that the digital USN was now registered for global trading. The Federal Reserve Bank and IRS have been moved under the US Treasury. IRS staffing has been severely reduced (3-4 per state) as part of the transition into GESARA / NESARA protocols under the Restored Republic.
This past week, the QFS system and security teams have taken every necessary action so that the Deep State cannot get access to RV / GCR funds with which they had hoped to re-hydrate their criminal cartel activities post-RV. Over the past few weeks there have been over 26,882 arrests of Deep State criminals who interfered with the RV release. The Department of Defense would step in if there was a non-performance of pre-Tier 4b release sequenced items by Tues. 26 May.
By Mon. 1 June the SWIFT system would be completely disconnected from the old Cabal banking system and the gold/asset-backed US Note would complete conversion into the Quantum Financial System.
On Mon. 1 June Iraq planned, along with the US Treasury and Chinese Elders, to bring out the new Iraqi Dinar Rate under the QFS. In order to do this all release sequences including the completion of exchanges for Tier 4b, had to be finished.
Also on Mon. 1 June the Restored Republic was taking over legally and politically, plus GESARA / NESARA debt relief would become more public. This was another reason that the GCR/RV release could not be stopped, another sign that we were at the end of this journey and why RV teams and many behind the scenes were celebrating right now.
Contract rates would be available until the General Public started exchanging on Mon. 15 June.

A. Sun. 24 May 6:26 am EDT Fleming Military Intel Contact: https://inteldinarchronicles.blogspot.com/2020/05/we-are-at-end-of-journey-fleming-intel.html
“As of Fri. 22 May all was in place for the Quantum Financial System to be utilized fully by the global banking system. On Fri. 22 May the White House signed off on approval for final disbursements to get started, and just after midnight EDT Fri 22 May, final disbursements were released.
“From Fri. 22 May to Tues. 26 May important money disbursement activity would be aimed at getting all upper level priority accounts available for liquid access by Tues.-Wed. 26-27 May.
Late Sat. night 23 May our Military Intel Contact said, “It’s very encouraging for next week. We are at the end of the journey. All RV teams, Judy Shelton, POTUS and the Department of Defense have to get this released next week and done before Mon. 1 June because:
“China continued to push this out, while the US was trying to keep up because they must have the RV/GCR funds right now in order to stave off economic implosion due to the Covid-19 pandemic shutdown that was destroying the economy and producing greater-than-Great-Depression unemployment levels.
“POTUS and the Department of Defense were under contractual mandate to release all before Mon. 1 June.
“POTUS, Judy Shelton, the Department of Defense and the RV teams know that the RV / GCR cannot be stopped next week so security teams were working on removing every obstacle this weekend. They were arresting every Deep State body that breathes with any potential of impeding or delaying the release next week. They know they have to get this over with now!
“We can celebrate that they will be able to finally get this over with next week because the release sequence is in motion to finish now.
“Liquidity in gold/asset-backed US Notes has been verified by RV teams on 1000s of accounts, notifications of liquidity release have been going out for the past 48 hours beginning Thurs.-Fri. 21, 22 May, meaning paymasters and banks are calling people saying their accounts have funds that are live and waiting for account holds to be removed. This would not happen unless final live access to account funds was coming next week to all Tiers when Tier 4b started.
“This was good news showing that the line ahead of us was moving this weekend.
“Wells Fargo account holds were scheduled to be removed, or were in process of being removed between now and Tues. 26 May.
“All pre-Tier 4b recipients and paymasters, including the Tier 3-Tier 4a groups and SKRs were to receive disbursements and live access by Tues. 26 May ahead of our start in Tier 4b starting by next Tues. or Wed. 26, 27 May with 800# notifications.
“The Department of Defense would step in if there was non-performance of pre-Tier 4b release sequenced items by Tues. 26 May.
“Many of Tier 3-4a groups that were going before Tier 4b have received notifications of payout / disbursement over the past 48 hours. All should receive notification by Tues. 26 May. This notification was part of the sequencing leading to full account liquidity coming to all levels next week when Tier 4b was started.
“Disbursements this weekend were for down line account liquidity release in US Notes to Tiers 2-3 Intermediates (CMKX, F&Ps, adjudicated settlement accounts) and upper level Tier 3-4a accounts, Paymasters and SKR holders who have been receiving notifications of payouts for live full account access when Tier 4b exchanges started Tues.-Wed. 26, 27 May onward.
“Tier 3-4a and SKR account holders have not seen access to liquidity yet. Most were now sequenced for Tues.-Wed. 26, 27 May when Tier 4b started. “Tues. 26 May was the US Treasury Target Date for final rates for Tier 4b exchanges and Bond redemption.
“This weekend’s Payouts and disbursements were tying up the upper level priority accounts of Tier 2-3 Intermediates and Tier 3-4a to the USN. These accounts were previously tied to the fiat USD. As disbursements in USN final amounts were made, these accounts were being converted over to the USN under the QFS for final release next week.
“This weekend's sequencing, disbursements in USN and preparation of 1000s of accounts was to be done by next Tues. 26 May – the current timing goal of the RV teams.
“Disbursements were going into sovereign, priority, Intermediate and upper level accounts of the Admiral and his team until Tues. 26 May – when account hold status sequence was to be removed. “Under the Quantum Financial System accounts for all tiers 1-4 were being filled with USN money-of-account (funds that were not yet accessible till Tier 4b started).
“Next week the Quantum Financial System would be ready for live access and the start of all levels when Wells Fargo removed current holds off accounts and sent out the 530,000+ notification emails to start Tier 4b exchanges.
“When the 800# notification emails came out, the email would link currency holders to a Safe Link Web site. After the currency holder entered personal information, the website would give the person a personalized encoded 800#. That personalized 800# could only be used once to call the 800# Call Center. Call Center operators would direct each currency holder from there to the closest redemption center in their zip code.
“Over the past several days the US Note has gone through a conversion process so that the digital USN was now registered for global trading, use and has been recognized and discussed as such in US Treasury, Federal Reserve and IMF meetings of global finance ministers.
“The Federal Reserve Bank and IRS have been in process of being moved under the US Treasury with Federal Reserve ledgers being moved under the US Treasury. The IRS staffing has been severely reduced as part of the transition into GESARA / NESARA protocols under the Restored Republic.
“By contractual agreement with the Chinese, POTUS, DoD, Judy Shelton and the RV teams were pushing hard to get the release sequence done prior to the start of Tier 4b exchanges next week and before Mon. 1 June. All Tiers 1-4 must receive full accessible funds before Mon. 1 June. The push was on because POTUS and the RV teams were under a contractual mandate with the Chinese to get all tiers liquid and started before Mon. 1 June.
“When Tier 4b started next week and over a 72 hour period, all Tier 1-4 accounts globally had to be released at the same time sequentially, with account holds removed, in order to give live access to funds. This was necessary so that all closings under the US Treasury’s USN and Restored Republic would go through at relatively the same time and Tiers 1-4 release would be started and completed before Mon. 1 June.
“The IMF wanted the general public (Tier 5) to start on Mon. 15 June and was saying that this was it, another sign that POTUS, DoD, Judy Shelton and RV teams had to get us started next week.
“On Mon. 1 June there would be a whole new level of activities under the QFS and the USN. Mnuchin was to tell the banks that everything in the banking system has been converted over to the digital asset-backed USN backing the QFS (which would be known to bankers as the "New Digital Ledgering System"). Mnuchin would also be telling the banks that everything was fully transitioned and tested to move forward, that the New Digital Ledgering System (QFS) was tested over the past week, was fully operational and compliant at the levels needed for secure global transactions.
“On Mon. 1 June the SWIFT system, that the Deep State has used to delay the RV release, would be completely disconnected from the banking system. The banking system would now be under the USN and QFS. By that Mon. 15 June the banks would be ready to start exchanging the public Tier 5 under the new USN and QFS system.
“This past week, the QFS system and security teams have taken every necessary action so that the Deep State cannot get access to RV / GCR funds with which they had hoped to re-hydrate their criminal cartel activities post-RV. This was a very important milestone to be able to release us next week.
“Though this weekend the Department of Defense security teams were getting all obstacles out of the way and arresting everyone who has been obstructing the process of released. There have been about 27,000+ arrests of Deep State criminals behind the scenes for obstructing the RV release and other Deep State criminal activities.
“On Mon. 1 June Iraq planned, along with the US Treasury and Chinese Elders, to bring out the new Iraqi Dinar Rate under the QFS. In order to do this all release sequences including the completion of exchanges for Tier 4b, had to be finished.
“Also on Mon. 1 June the Restored Republic was taking over legally and politically, plus GESARA / NESARA debt relief would become more public. This was another reason that the GCR/RV release could not be stopped, another sign that we were at the end of this journey and why RV teams and many behind the scenes were celebrating right now.
“We were at the end of this journey. It’s OK to breathe a sigh of relief, to keep baby stepping forward toward the finish line, to keep continued prayers going up, to get ready for next week to be the end for us all and the beginning of blessings post RV.”

These videos were about the role of the Netherlands as a loyal Cabal crime syndicate and how global entanglements and treaties were meaningless due to the fraud committed by the Cabal Fake governments.
According to the Netherland’s Fake law 162 criminal law, every person with knowledge of a crime committed by an official or politician has to report it to the DOJ. It's just a pity that we don't have a Constitution and therefore no laws that are valid. Now they had a problem, either report it to the DOJ, which was not valid, or continue and become victims themselves of the Dutch Cabal crime syndicate and get vaccinated with the poison cocktail of Satanist Bill Gates. Die obediently and languish in misery, or side with the people and stop supporting this Bilderberg Mafia. It would be a question of conscience with self-preservation for a good future with perspective.
The previous video clearly showed that the police were lying about the MH17 with their participation in this crime. All members of JIT connected through 5 Eyes have signed an agreement not to reveal the truth – all persons presenting themselves in the name of JIT were directly guilty of obstruction of justice by designating people as perpetrators to hide their own involvement.

G. Currency Exchange/Bond Redemption: Please treat the below as my guess. Official instructions would be available upon 800# release.
WARNING: DO NOT give your foreign currency or Zim Bonds to anyone to exchange, or redeem for you. If a Group Leader was telling you that they could obtain better rates for you, or saying not to go to your appointment at an Exchange Center, they were not telling the truth.
Anyone could exchange and redeem their currencies and/or Zim Bonds, and would have the same ability to obtain the higher Contract Rates as anyone else, as long as they did it at a licensed Exchange Center as per appointment through the 800#s.
I am not aware of how someone outside the US could redeem Zim Bonds. That question should be asked to the person who set up your appointment.
About an hour or so before appointments could be set Wells Fargo would be sending out 530,000+ notification emails to start those Tier 4b exchanges. The email would have a link to a Safe Link Website. After the currency holder clicked on the website and entered their personal information, the website would give them a personalized encoded 800#. Call Center operators would direct each currency holder to the closest redemption center in a zip code where the person wanted to exchange or redeem.
Judy Note: That personalized 800# could only be used once to call the 800# Call Center.
That Safe Link Website would also be available on certain websites as below:

H. Currency and Zim Bond Appointments: This information applied to redeemers in the US. Different countries would have their own regulations and rules. Please treat as my opinion only as deducted from Military Contact Intel reported by Fleming and Bruce:
The Elders wanted currency and Zim holders to get the highest rates for their humanitarian projects and/or investing in national and international humanitarian projects. Every currency and Zim holder would get an equal chance at the highest Contract Rates for their interest in humanitarian work and project presentations. It would be a level playing field with one appointment, not two.
Currency exchanges not asking for Contract Rates: At your appointment if you didn’t have Zim, nor a humanitarian project and didn’t want to invest in the national and international humanitarian projects, your currency would be validated, you would be given a specific rate (higher than what would be offered on foreign currencies after 15 June), your account would be set up, you would be given a debit card with a percentage of your monies immediately available and then receive the rest within 48 hours. You would have no restrictions on how you spent your monies. Your appointment would last around 30 min.
Zim Redemption and Currency exchanges asking for Contract Rates: At your appointment if you had Zim and/or a specific humanitarian project and/or wanted to invest in the national and international humanitarian projects, your currency and Zim would be validated, you would be offered Contract Rates, the amount of which was dependent upon your humanitarian project and/or investment interest in national and international humanitarian projects, your account would be set up, you would be given a debit card with a percentage of your monies immediately available and receive the “rest” within 48 hours.
That payout would be placed on your choice of a quarterly, semi quarterly or yearly payout period. The amount of earned interest on monies left at the bank during your payout period would be dependent on the amount of monies you had and length you chose for your payout period. A certain percentage of your Contract Rate monies would be for your own use, the rest dedicated to humanitarian work. Your appointment could last up to 90 min.
If you were not satisfied with the first appointment rate offered for the ZIM you would have 180 days (6 months) to work with a Wealth Manager and trust company private banking team, which would represent us to the US Treasury for higher rates than those received in the first appointment. The Wealth Managers and trust company would be happy to help us.
US Taxes: At the end of March 2020 the IRS was severely downsized as it folded into the new US Treasury. We now had 4-6 IRS agents per state to collect a flat tax of 15-17%. There would be no capital gains tax on the exchange or ZIM redemption, just a tax on interest earned from exchange/redemption proceeds.
The new US Treasury under the Restored Republic was the banking regulator of banks post-RV. The US Treasury would not control account funds, only you would, but the Treasury would be the servicer of our QFS accounts and the banks would be financial service providers that would serve us as account holders.
If RV funds were used for Deep State purposes like drug running, child trafficking, gun running, or other criminal activities, the NSA would find out and freeze accounts on the QFS.

Judy Note: I do not now, nor have I ever, received monies for writing my Updates and articles.

A Thank You to those dedicated and brave Intel providers who wished to remain unknown; to humble Wildfire Lady who is adept at exposing the truth; to Martha who works around the clock to discern what is real in the fake news; to Brad who does great research and Ken who uncovers almost unlimited Intel on pedophilia to help us Save the Children.

Memorial Day Tribute
.Memorial Day Tribute By Jdtolle from KTFA
Memorial Day, originally called Decoration Day, is a day of remembrance for those who have died in service of the United States of America.
Over two dozen cities and towns claim to be the birthplace of Memorial Day. While Waterloo N.Y. was officially declared the birthplace of Memorial Day by President Lyndon Johnson in May 1966, it’s difficult to prove conclusively the origins of the day.
Regardless of the exact date or location of its origins, one thing is clear – Memorial Day was borne out of the Civil War and a desire to honor our dead.
It was officially proclaimed on 5 May 1868 by General John Logan, national commander of the Grand Army of the Republic, in his General Order No. 11.
Memorial Day Tribute By Jdtolle from KTFA
Memorial Day, originally called Decoration Day, is a day of remembrance for those who have died in service of the United States of America.
Over two dozen cities and towns claim to be the birthplace of Memorial Day. While Waterloo N.Y. was officially declared the birthplace of Memorial Day by President Lyndon Johnson in May 1966, it’s difficult to prove conclusively the origins of the day.
Regardless of the exact date or location of its origins, one thing is clear – Memorial Day was borne out of the Civil War and a desire to honor our dead.
It was officially proclaimed on 5 May 1868 by General John Logan, national commander of the Grand Army of the Republic, in his General Order No. 11.
“The 30th of May, 1868, is designated for the purpose of strewing with flowers, or otherwise decorating the graves of comrades who died in defense of their country during the late rebellion, and whose bodies now lie in almost every city, village and hamlet churchyard in the land,” he proclaimed.
The date of Decoration Day, as he called it, was chosen because it wasn’t the anniversary of any particular battle.
On the first Decoration Day, General James Garfield made a speech at Arlington National Cemetery, and 5,000 participants decorated the graves of the 20,000 Union and Confederate soldiers buried there.
The first state to officially recognize the holiday was New York in 1873. By 1890 it was recognized by all of the northern states. The South refused to acknowledge the day, honoring their dead on separate days until after World War I (when the holiday changed from honoring just those who died fighting in the Civil War to honoring Americans who died fighting in any war).
It is now observed in almost every state on the last Monday in May with Congressional passage of the National Holiday Act of 1971 (P.L. 90 – 363). This helped ensure a three day weekend for Federal holidays, though several southern states have an additional separate day for honoring the Confederate war dead: January 19th in Texas; April 26th in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, and Mississippi; May 10th in South Carolina; and June 3rd (Jefferson Davis’ birthday) in Louisiana and Tennessee.
Red Poppies
In 1915, inspired by the poem “In Flanders Fields,” Moina Michael replied with her own poem:
We cherish too, the Poppy red
That grows on fields where valor led,
It seems to signal to the skies
That blood of heroes never dies.
She then conceived of an idea to wear red poppies on Memorial day in honor of those who died serving the nation during war. She was the first to wear one, and sold poppies to her friends and co-workers with the money going to benefit servicemen in need.
Later a Madam Guerin from France was visiting the United States and learned of this new custom started by Ms. Michael. When she returned to France she made artificial red poppies to raise money for war orphaned children and widowed women.
This tradition spread to other countries. In 1921, the Franco-American Children’s League sold poppies nationally to benefit war orphans of France and Belgium. The League disbanded a year later and Madam Guerin approached the VFW for help.
Shortly before Memorial Day in 1922 the VFW became the first veterans’ organization to nationally sell poppies. Two years later their “Buddy” Poppy program was selling artificial poppies made by disabled veterans. In 1948 the US Post Office honored Ms. Michael for her role in founding the National Poppy movement by issuing a red 3 cent postage stamp with her likeness on it.
National Moment of Remembrance
The “National Moment of Remembrance” resolution was passed on Dec 2000 which asks that at 3 p.m. local time, for all Americans “To voluntarily and informally observe in their own way a Moment of remembrance and respect, pausing from whatever they are doing for a moment of silence or listening to ‘Taps.”
Here are the number of casualties in each U.S. war:
Civil War: Approximately 620,000 Americans died. The Union lost almost 365,000 troops and the Confederacy about 260,000. More than half of these deaths were caused by disease.
World War I: 116,516 Americans died, more than half from disease.
World War II: 405,399 Americans died.
Korean War: 36,574 Americans died.
Vietnam Conflict: 58,220 Americans died. More than 47,000 Americans were killed in action and nearly 11,000 died of other causes.
Operation Desert Shield/Desert Storm: 148 U.S. battle deaths and 145 non-battle deaths.
Operation Iraqi Freedom: 4,422 U.S. service members died.
Operation New Dawn: 66 U.S. service members died.
Operation Enduring Freedom: 2,318 U.S. service members have died as of May 12, 2014.
In remembrance of all those who gave the last full measure of devotion for this great nation and the freedoms we all enjoy today.

Tishwash: The Wall Street Journal reveals an Iraqi approach to facing the economic crisis
A report by the American newspaper "The Wall Street Journal" highlighted the recent moves of Iraq to face the economic crisis.
The newspaper stated in its report that Iraq resorted under the pressure of low oil prices and the economic crisis resulting from the outbreak of the Corona epidemic to its Arab neighbors to resolve this crisis by seeking to reduce the debt burden prescribed to Kuwait and its move to strengthen relations with Saudi Arabia through the Gulf Round The latter is for Finance Minister Ali Allawi, who is also Deputy Prime Minister and Acting Oil Minister, who suggested that Kuwait postpone or cancel about three billion dollars due to Iraq as compensation for the Gulf War.

Tishwash: Newspaper: Saudi Arabia called on Iraq to put an end to Iranian influence
The American "Wall Street Journal" revealed on Monday that Saudi Arabia called on Iraq to put an end to Iranian influence in the country.
The newspaper stated that "under the pressure of low oil prices and the economic crisis caused by the outbreak of the Corona epidemic, it appears that Iraq has sought refuge with its Arab neighbors to solve this crisis, so it sought to reduce the debt burden imposed on it to Kuwait, and moved to strengthen relations with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia."
According to the newspaper, "The Kingdom and the Emirates have called on Iraq to end Iran, which has increased its influence over Iraqi politics since 2003."
For his part, Finance Minister Ali Allawi stressed that "the transformation in regional relations will not constitute a turning point or come at the expense of other allies, but it is likely to be accompanied by political amendments."
"It does not open a whole new chapter, but it is hoped that different pages will be opened in this chapter." link

This is proof of the things that we have been saying - that they are Article 8...which means they raised the value of their currency. Which means they are about to make that announcement to the world...
Pimpy ...there's a lot of positive juju, a positive mojo going on in the dinar community. I think all of us rightfully or wrongfully have pinned June as the magical month. Why? Man there's just too many things that seem to be pointing to June...we've got the meeting taking place in June. We got all kinds of new trade agreements that are supposed to kick in in June. So very very interesting. A lot of positive energy. We will see where that leads too. Hopefully something good. ...things are looking good. Man, something about that month of June man! I'm feeling pretty good about it...

While the msm works tirelessly to make Donald Trump out to be a buffoon, over the last week DT did the following, but you probably won't hear about it:
1. Made vaccines voluntary not mandatory. Military will check purity and distribute vaccines
2. Defunded W.H.O forever and wants an investigation into its operations
3. Cancelled the Democrats HR 6666 bill, known as the Covid -19 TRACE Act that was the basis for Bill Gates's diagnosis and tracking project, which was also cancelled.
4. Cancelled Bill Gates project known as ID2020
5. Opened a complaint platform to report censorship on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. <It was overrun with complaints. They got the evidence.>
6. Stopped 5G rollout nationwide
7. Executive Order to reopen states: Governors who refuse to reopen will be sued.
8. Executve Order for W.H. to take over all Electrical Grids: Which will include Internet servers, Broadcasting systems, Electronic systems. <Red Flag>
9. Declares places of worship 'Essential Sevices.' Some mayors are fining people for going to church.
10. Applauded Australia and 116 countries for insisting on a China Probe into the spread of Covid-19 despite several threats from China about refusing critical exports.
And the good work keeps coming. The Gold backed standard is in the pipeline and there is talk about Nesara/ Gesara. The man has balls!
He’s changing the world.

Peter Schiff - Buy Gold and Silver Now before It’s Too Late
Greg Hunter: May 23, 2020
Money printing by the Fed and Congress is off the charts. This is why money manager Peter Schiff thinks precious metals are a no-brainer investment.
Schiff says, “It’s not that gold is gaining in value, it’s that fiat currencies are all losing value.
Gold is the one stable factor. It’s the one thing governments can’t create out of thin air. Every currency in the world, except the dollar, are hitting new record lows against gold.
You need more Euros, Rands or Aussie dollars to buy an ounce of gold. . . . The U.S. dollar is losing value more slowly, but this is going to change. We are going to win the race to the bottom. . . . People need to convert their dollars now into gold or silver.
If you think the price of gold is going up now, wait til the dollar is the weakest of the currencies. . . . That’s going to accelerate the appreciation of gold . . . and that’s going to put gold in the spotlight as the replacement to the U.S. dollar as the main reserve asset for global central banks.”
Thoughts from DJ and Sierra Monday Morning 5-25-2020
.Thank you DJ
DJ: DID YOU KNOW?
Here is another coincidence to ponder. One of the most prevalent items for passing pathogens is cash and coin. Globally, due to the COVID-19 stigma, commercial institutions and some countries are migrating to electronic transactions as a control mechanism for having contact with the virus. Even after this virus goes away, the stigma will remain.
Without the introduction of this virus, the world financial system had already been on a path of cashless economies. The world has run off cash and coin since the invention of currency.
Transitioning to a cashless society is laced with potential obstacles. First among those obstacles is the acceptance by the public. For the public, those spending and those receiving cash, it would have been a slow process of installing faith in new systems for transactions other than cash.
With the introduction of the COVID-19 pandemic, a scenario is in place where the decision has been made for us, and is non-debatable, speeding up the acceptance issue tenfold. Is it just a coincidence that the pandemic feeds into transitioning to a cashless society?
Thank you DJ

From a GCR/RV perspective, across the board the control mechanisms put in place or being put in place from the advent of this pandemic, all feed into a GCR/RV implementation. Most all of the protocols that would be needed to restructure how we value and use currencies (GCR) are what is needed to control a pandemic.
The timing makes it all coincidental.
Stimulus packages being implemented around the world are all pretty similar in their deployment. Citizens received a fixed amount check, unemployment benefits have been enhanced, mortgage payments can be put on hold with no fees or foreclosures, small business loans (some forgivable) sponsored by a sovereign central bank and so on. And a second round of stimulus in the works.
For a GCR to occur, the one thing absolutely needed is a data base of whom to pay or who will receive benefits from it. Followed by the “how” funds will be distributed in a fair and equitable manner.
The stimulus packages around the world seem to have accommodated those questions. The first round gathered the data on individuals, the mechanisms for payouts were established, and all the flaws realized from the first round are being adjusted for a second round.
For those involved in the GCR/RV, it is pretty well known that China is a major factor in its implementation. The gold wrapped accounts being utilized to back the new currencies primarily are coming from the Chinese. In particular this relates to the ZIM and historical assets.
China is under assault by the world for their part in the virus outbreak. Besides the horrific death and illness factor, the economic impact from the pandemic has its own devastating outcomes that may ultimately be more destructive then the disease itself. As the crisis continues, the anger and frustration is starting to mount and the blame begins to fall on China.
China is an exporting country. They have put themselves in a position where their economy relies on their manufacturing base. China cannot grow enough food to feed their population. They have limited tillable acreage and so rely on “importing” food.
Most of their trade treaties have a food supply component written in the language. As countries and their populations become angered at China and the demand for Chinese products dwindles or countries choose to manufacture products otherwise imported from China, those treaties become unbalanced and soon China will find itself in a drastic food shortage.
To save face and reignite faith in Chinese products worldwide, China will have to make a major statement of good faith or face potential economic collapse and possible starvation. They really have no choice. So there is a “good news”-bad news” situation.
This is also a good time for countries to do their laundry. What better time to implement unpopular initiatives that will meet with dire public response when you are holding a trump card (pardon the connection) that will gain the support of an otherwise angry public?
“We are going to rob you of certain liberties and freedoms” The public responds with protest “wait a minute you can’t do that we will rise up”. “And we will give you all $100,000 and forgive your debt” “Ya know on second thought for a $100,000 and no debt you go ahead do all the nasty deeds you want we will just shut up”
No one really knows how the GCR will be deployed. We hear a lot information that comes across as feasible so we readily accept it as fact but, from a global perspective, we the public don’t really know.
800#s and exchange centers are good and fine for those holding currencies but keep in mind this event is meant for all to benefit. This could all be speculation and just another scenario of connecting the dots but the hand sure fits the glove. DJ

"President Trump: We Caught them all" by Sierra (NZ) - 5.24.20
Entry Submitted by Sierra (NZ) at 9:30 PM EDT on May 24, 2020
President Trump... 'I have a chance to break the Deep State...'
Check out this short video of a President Trump interview...
https://twitter.com/KarluskaP/status/1264617769099763715
#ObamaGate pic.twitter.com/Gc4grZFBDE
— Karli Q ⭐️⭐️⭐️ - Text TRUMP to 88022 (@KarluskaP) May 24, 2020
Excerpts from the interview...
'I see they have a lot of subpoenas out...We caught them in a very corrupt act - you could call it treasonous...They're dirty cops...If it keeps going the way it's going - and Radcliffe is fantastic - I have a chance to break the Deep State...It's a vicious group of people...' (President Trump)
These are brave powerful words. Recently President Trump told reporters, 'No one else could have done it...' He was not speaking from ego. It's a FACT. He is so wealthy that he could not be bought by the Deep State, as happened to most previous Presidents. He is extremely intelligent and easily outwitted them. And most importantly, he is a deeply loyal Patriot who loves his country.
Check out this tweet from Kevin Sorbo...
https://twitter.com/ksorbs/status/1264556019050598400
This should be on a giant billboard in every city in the US.
"America does not need to see the tax return of a billionaire who became a public servant. America needs to see the tax returns of public servants who became millionaires while being public servants.”
— Kevin Sorbo (@ksorbs) May 24, 2020
'America does not need to see the tax return of a billionaire who became a public servant. America needs to see the tax returns of public servants who became millionaires while being public servants.'
There is a long list of corrupt USA politicians who became millionaires WHILE in office. How is that possible? Unless there was a lot of corruption taking place, eg Joe and Hunter Biden in Ukraine. Where is the outrage from the American people?
Meanwhile, there is an interesting development between President Trump and Jeff Sessions. Q warned us there is a lot of disinformation and optics taking place during this intense Alliance battle to destroy the Deep State. One of the current optics is President Trump's supposed vendetta against Jeff Sessions. Lisa Mei Crowley explains it best in a tweet...
'I'm gonna stay out of the POTUS-Sessions public spat...Just going to leave you with this message from Q+...'
Her tweet is followed by a link to Q+ drop number 2452. Anons, including myself, believe Q+ to be President Trump...
https://twitter.com/LisaMei62/status/1264346023943720966/photo/1
I'm gonna stay out of the POTUS - Session public spat from here on out. Just gonna leave you with this msg from Q+ and a meme that says it better than I can. Peace out. ✌ pic.twitter.com/0VIM4HL3jC
— Lisa Mei Crowley (@LisaMei62) May 24, 2020
'Thank you for your service to our Country, Mr Jeff Sessions!
Your sacrifice will never be forgotten.'
Q+
The screen shot of the Q+ Drop is followed by a meme reminding us of another Q drop: 'TRUST SESSIONS.'
General Michael Flynn and Attorney General Jeff Sessions 'took one for the team' in order to destroy the Deep State. Q has said all along that General Flynn would be exonerated. President Trump/Q+ honored Jeff Sessions' sacrifice in Q drop number 2452.
This public spat between POTUS and Jeff Sessions is a clever ploy. If President Trump doesn't like Sessions - guess who will? The corrupt Democrats. They will start fawning over Sessions, then - BOOM! President Trump will strike, yet again.
Finally, here is a great video of POTUS's Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany slaying the White House press correspondents...

Look Forward
.Look Forward
Jonathan Clements | May 23, 2020
IT’S BEEN AN UNHAPPY few months. Stepping outside means risking our health. One out of six U.S. workers is unemployed or soon will be. The stock market has suffered its worst decline since 2007-09. And while we can take steps to help ourselves, the situation is largely out of our control.
Feeling glum? One of my abiding interests is happiness research, and that research offers ideas that can make our current situation a little cheerier. But how?
We can think of any occasion—perhaps it’s a fun experience we’re planning or a purchase we want to make—as having three elements: the time before, the event itself and the time after. Each offers the opportunity for happiness, but it takes effort on our part.

We can think of any occasion—perhaps it’s a fun experience we’re planning or a purchase we want to make—as having three elements: the time before, the event itself and the time after. Each offers the opportunity for happiness, but it takes effort on our part.
1. Before. I’ve stopped asking friends and family whether they have any plans for the weeks ahead, because the question seems almost silly. Many folks are reluctant to, say, eat at restaurants or go to the beach—and, depending on where we live, these things may even be prohibited. But if we can’t make plans, what’s there to look forward to? The fact is, one of life’s great joys is anticipation.
My suggestion: Create two wish lists, one for today’s world and one for our post-pandemic life. The current list might include things like restaurants we want to order from, hikes we’d like to take and items we want to purchase online.
Yes, I realize there’s currently a debate about the ethics of online shopping—and whether we should limit ourselves to ordering essentials, so we don’t put fulfillment and delivery workers unnecessarily at risk.
I’m not going to weigh in on that. But if you are inclined to buy online, I’d spend time scouring the internet and considering different items, so you add to your anticipation.
And if you decide to make some purchases, lean toward items that can be shared with others, such as kitchen utensils that’ll allow you to make a special meal for your family or games that require multiple players. Most things in life are better when they can be shared with others.
Meanwhile, even if we can’t imagine climbing on an airplane today or going to a concert, we should make a second wish list that includes, say, places we’d like to visit and performers we’d like to see. We might do some research online, and then hatch plans with friends and family.

Today, Friday, Finance Minister Ali Abdul Amir Allawi revealed the categories covered by reducing salaries, while specifying the deduction mechanism and ways to reduce it or withdraw it saving.
Allawi said in a televised meeting, "The government will determine the priorities of the crushed and poor class and that any reduction in salaries will not include employees, or retirees at lower levels who receive a salary of 500 thousand dinars or less," noting that "the rest of the other groups that consume half the budget with high salaries will be Included in treatment and reduction."
He added that a waste represented in the allocations of the higher grades would be covered by the reduction, noting that "the group close to the fifth degree will try to reduce the damage to it by reducing the reduction or withdraw it saving and link it to health or housing insurance or health insurance."

He added that a waste represented in the allocations of the higher grades would be covered by the reduction, noting that "the group close to the fifth degree will try to reduce the damage to it by reducing the reduction or withdraw it saving and link it to health or housing insurance or health insurance."
He pointed out that "the method of drawing the budget is wrong and lacks the economic and realistic view and vision, which is a collection of numbers and every year new numbers are added to it," noting that "the budget problem is great because of salaries, allocations and state expenditures associated with legal benefits, where laws are enacted without taking their financial impact, Such as increasing salaries, increasing the social network, increasing benefits, or retirement and all these things are reflected in the budget." He continued, "We should not count on the rise in oil prices, and we must rely on resources and self-possibilities as it is a major axis of the economy." the prices".
And Allawi said that "Iraq does not have safety valves such as those in the Gulf, which drives the government to deal with international institutions such as the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank, but the IMF has a kind of immediate support based on technical measures, which may require months, while the financial problem we have requires Very fast processing."
Allawi pointed out that "solutions exist in spite of a fundamental error in the structure of the Iraqi economy, this error is reflected on the budget as a whole," noting that "there are some institutions still sound like the central bank and the central bank reserves are 65 billion dollars, which is good, and in this Unusual circumstances require concerted efforts, including institutions, in general they must take a conservative stance against interference in the economic and financial affairs of the country, stressing that “there is supposed to be a unified account for all the state’s money, but there are pockets out of control in which billions exist, and there are accounts Trillions of some ministries."
He noted that "the government does not want to finance salaries only, as there are state expenditures that must be taken into account, such as external debts linked to schedules and have contractual implications, and other issues including necessary security purchases and others related to the ration card and other budget items", explaining that "the problem in operational budgets is She has no resources."
He explained that the crisis began in March and April, so the surplus in the country was allocated to cover salaries, including retirees, for the fourth, fifth and sixth months, while keeping partial liquidity at the ministry representing a safety valve, adding that any new government to start with an ideal start must have cash at least Ten trillion, but what was available at the beginning of the government’s taking over was only two and a half trillion.” LINK
MilitiaMan: This one speaks for it's self. It looks as though they have the money for salaries allocated already. I am not so sure they need loans nor are they going to get them for to finance Salaries. Especially while at a program rate. The salaries are to be paid this month after Eid Al-Fitr.
What will they do in July and August, etc.? Finance more salaries? lol.. No, they are not imo.. Imo They have the nscn's to give out, as purchase power is a gift during a time of giving..
They cut off Iran and Iraq's electricity dealings yesterday and earlier than the original 30 day extension they had, let alone the 120 day extension they had in place. That was a head fake or what? lol
The energy is now coming from Saudi Arabia. That means to me they are international in regard to doing business. The implications of that are huge. The UNSC 2 Billion Dinars not yet given out from their 05/13/2020 meeting, nor the meetings with the new Deputy Prime Minister / Finance Minister going to Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, etc., where fruitful in obtaining loans. But those meetings were more likely about about interlinking their economies.
Allocating the monies from prior conferences, contracts or agreements, yet to be activated, until apparently now, as noted by SA. Imo.. If that is the case then, that is looking to be regional reconciliation for the area!!
We know the plan is to become a social market economy for Iraq. That requires internationalism.
Doing so requires Iraq to be article 8 compliant.
From the looks of the recent agreement with Saudi Arabia, they are showing that they are now compliant, ioo. The meetings with the Finance Minister, aka Deputiy Prime Minister, has me thinking they are or may have brought or now are bringing the REER (Real Effective Exchange Rate) to the neighboring countries.
The neighboring countries in the region will have a need to know the REER within a very short period of time to adjust pricing inline with Iraq at the borders for things such as; customs, taxes, fees, etc... Just as SA would need to know the REER for the energy pricing for Iraq's energy needs. imo Times are seriously getting real, imo!!
Lets see what they do going forward. Even Sistani has moved the Eid Al-Fitr back one more day. They are in lock down during the holiday period. What a perfect cover under or being behind the COVD-19 mask era.
We know the CBI printed 4 trillion dinar in April. They didn't print large notes. They printed smaller increments of money. imo.
We know they showed us they were destroying large amounts of perfectly good large notes. The new money is to replace the large with smalls.
The education process for the new currency will come once the REER is exposed and that would or could be easily done while they are under the curfew, imo. Everyone will be home and behind a TV or some sort of social media.
They could show the new money and educate for re opening of the ISX well before they open. It is hard to imagine they would have a perfect cover to just waste it.. imo
So, lets see what they do next. But, it sure looks like we are in a good place.. imo ~ MM

MilitiaMan: We see the Kurds are in agreement with the new PM on the implementation of the FMLA of 2019.. Oh Buddy.. That my friends is so very welcome, you may not have any idea, but, this is music to my ears. They agreed on the REER for the future budgets and will be in preparation for their fundamental implementation.... No wonder Saudi Arabia is off and running.. Word travels fast.

Don961: A bet on the 'back rooms'
Washington on the line of the economic crisis in Iraq .. And Al-Kazemi's team is on a date with the test!
2020.05.24 - 12:53 Baghdad - people
Al-Sharq Al-Awsat newspaper said that US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo paved the way for the upcoming strategic dialogue between Washington and Baghdad, through a phone call, which the newspaper considered to be meaningful as he held it with Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi.
The newspaper pointed out in a report, which was viewed by "people" (May 24, 2020), that the dialogue between Baghdad and Washington should be transformed from a political-security dialogue to an economic-investment dialogue, and “here it will test the ability of Al-Kazemi and his government team and the intentions of the Iraqi political forces ruling In the political process. "
The following is the text of the report:
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo paved the way for the upcoming strategic dialogue between Washington and Baghdad, with a meaningful phone call he made with Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa al-Kazemi.
Pompeo, according to the statement issued by the US State Department, discussed with Al-Kazemi «the economic crisis in Iraq, and the next strategic dialogue between the United States and Iraq».
The statement added that «the minister urged Prime Minister Al-Kazemi to follow the real reforms while working with international institutions, to provide financial assistance to Iraq».
And if the State Department statement focused on the economic crisis, as a first priority that the Iraqi government should address, including the trend towards international institutions to provide assistance to Iraq, the statement issued by the Information Office of the Prime Minister of Iraq did not go away on the essence of Iraqi-American priorities, including In that upcoming dialogue between the two countries, described by both of them as strategic dialogue.
According to what political observers see in Baghdad, the prospective dialogue is linked from the viewpoint of the parties close to Iran, particularly the armed factions, to the American military presence, which must end with the departure of the American soldiers from the bases in which they are located, starting from "Ain al-Assad" in western Iraq. , To a "silk" base in Kurdistan in northern Iraq.
The Iraqi government, which finds itself between several pathways and anvils, has not yet disclosed the nature of this dialogue, and what it might include.
For its part, the political parties that make up the Iraqi parliament are divided among themselves, who reject the survival of the Americans, who are the majority of the Shiite forces, and support for their survival, namely the Sunnis and the Kurds.
In this context, American support for al-Kazemi comes as a reliable and worthy prime minister. In return, Iran is still declaring its support for Al-Kazemi without reservation of any step I take, knowing that Al-Kazemi’s priorities now are how to pay the salaries of employees that amount to more than two billion dollars per month. In this context, there is an equation that seems very imbalanced, and that is a complete openness to Saudi Arabia by Al-Kazemi, with the beginning of a strategic dialogue with the Americans in light of the ambiguous relations between the Iranians and the Americans.
Member of the Committee on Foreign Relations in the Iraqi parliament, Dr. Dhafer Al-Ani, trying in his speech to "Al-Sharq Al-Awsat" to try to solve the mystery of this equation, saying that "Al-Kazemi's government was born amid the complexities of the Iraqi scene economically, security and health; Indeed, even internationally, according to Iraq, according to its current capabilities, Iraq is unable to face these conditions without external assistance.
Al-Ani added: "The government, which is based on an initial positive external impression on it, is trying to invest this in overcoming its plight through a wide openness to countries that are characterized by assistance, in order to consolidate the pillars of the new government and push it towards rational rational decisions."
Al-Ani explained that “the Arab Gulf states, especially the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the Emirates and Kuwait, have ties of Arabism and neighborliness with them, and have previously helped Iraq in previous years, and they are at the forefront of countries that will initiate Iraq to seek aid to support its stability, driven by a certain awareness that the stability of Iraq is stability For the entire region, and that strengthening the new government is an important factor for restoring Iraq’s independence and sovereignty. ”
With regard to Iran, Al-Ani says that "Iran continues to interfere in Iraq to steal its sovereign decision, through direct sabotage action economically, security and culturally, and indirectly through the armed factions loyal to it in Iraq." Regionally and internationally, it is continuous and wide, to send enough assurances that it is determined to take serious steps towards consolidating the independence and unity of Iraq. '
As for the professor of national security, Dr. Hussein Allawi, he sees in his talk to "Al-Sharq Al-Awsat" about the strategic dialogue between Baghdad and Washington, that "both countries are ready for dialogue in an open manner without reservations or red lines; As it is time for Iraq to make the right choices without Iranian pressure or local investment by armed factions.
Allawi adds that «the position of Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi represents today the forces of national moderation, the government apparatus, and society, in terms of dialogue with the Americans.
Allawi explained that «the fate of the American forces will remain in the light of the advisory and coordination work, training, information exchange, and maintenance of American equipment in the ranks of the armed forces, through American companies, and this was determined in the light of the strategic relocation plan in the Iraqi military bases, at (Ein Al-Assad base) And (Harir), and in the event that the Iraqi government asks for more than that, the American response will be through the International Alliance and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO).
Allawi pointed out that «the dialogue must be transferred from a political-security dialogue to an economic-investment dialogue, and here it will test the ability of Al-Kazemi and his government team and the intentions of the Iraqi political forces ruling in the political process», explaining that «the back rooms of the Iranian-American negotiations are capable of dismantling The complex of the American-Iranian conflict, but Al-Kazemi wants to launch relations towards a comprehensive and parallel path, in order to preserve Iraqi national interests, since Al-Kazemi is closer to the protest forces that reject Iranian influence over the Iraqi political-economic decision, but want a normal relationship without interference, which is what He made the Iranians realize this through decision-making systems that showed a clear retreat, which makes them focus on interests, markets and trade between Iran and Iraq, with the parallel line of aid continuing to their friendly parties in Iraq. link

Ali Allawi denied the authenticity of the news about Iraq’s request from Saudi Arabia to borrow about $ 3 billion, and he said that this talk is not true, but if we talk about the volume of support we will get from Saudi projects that can be implemented in Iraq, and if the capital is raised for these Projects: «We may reach this number and more, we want to move the investment inside Iraq».
In a question about the fact that these projects will take a long time, in return for Iraq being required to fill the deficit and provide the salaries of workers and retirees for the coming months, Allawi answered: “We have in Iraq immediate financial problems related to deficits and loss of flexibility, and the Iraqi budget is based on two assumptions: one of which is volatile, and it is The price of oil and the amount of its production, and the second is fixed, which are salaries and pensions and workers, and this equation is very concerned.
He added: "The decline has greatly affected the state's liquidity, and the funds must be rationalized as much as possible so that we can address friends to help support the deficit in the immediate term. As for the short and medium term, the commercial projects are almost ready, and only implementation remains."
He demanded the Iraqi people, especially from the category of employees who have a rise in their returns, to accept sacrifices for the sake of rebalancing and rebuilding Iraq, but the poor of them are able to guarantee them. LINK
MilitiaMan: All the worry about loans, should be off the table and off ones mind. They have the ability in place now to not need them. They'll want the monies from many different mechanisms or tools if you will, to jump start the new social market economy. The FMLA of 2019 is looking to be be in place and ready to be applied.. Only the final implementation is what looks to be all that is waited on.. imo ~ MM

Samson: Finance Minister: We seek to increase the share of Saudi Arabia inside Iraq .. And reveals a "detailed note"
05/25/2020 09:48:35
Finance Minister Ali Abdul Amir Allawi said that Iraq wants to restore economic balance with neighboring countries.
Allawi, who visited Saudi Arabia recently and returned yesterday to Baghdad after the end of his meetings with Saudi officials, said that "one of the goals of the Iraqi government is to restore the Iraqi balance with the countries of the region, in terms of economic and trade, and that the Saudi economic role in Iraq is somewhat shy - as he put it - Especially since the size of the Saudi economy is equivalent to half the size of the Arab world’s economy, but its presence is relatively weak compared to Turkey and Iran, whose investments amount to 12 billion dollars a year, compared to the volume of Saudi investments in Iraq, which amounts to one billion dollars per year. And between: “We want to change Balance, and we seek to increase the share of Saudi Arabia inside Iraq in various fields including electricity, oil, petrochemical and agriculture. "
He pointed out that "the flow of Saudi investments in Iraq, despite the obstacles that exist in front of the Saudi investor, plays a more important and greater role in the process of rebuilding Iraq, acknowledging that there are major obstacles inside Iraq, from the legal system to administrative arrangements to stifling bureaucracy to the loss of financial banking support for the country And the weakness of the banking sector led to security problems, and all of these affected the Iraqi economy during the last period.
He emphasized that "the Saudi-Iraqi Coordination Council is still standing, but it is generally in stages, as the interest of the Saudi side is very high, but the conditions inside Iraq and the successive political crises have prevented some kind of activating this axis."
Allawi said, "We want to activate this axis, and we are going according to a serious plan to implement all our obligations and promises to the Kingdom."
He added agreed during my meetings with the Saudi side to provide a detailed note next week on how to develop a relationship, and what obstacles and projects that can be implemented in the long immediate and medium, which may be a model of economic relations, to be built on the objectives and structure of numbers. LINK
MilitiaMan: Activation. This time with the new PM in place, they trust that the activation will happen and is happening. There has been many things that show that the Kingdom believes the new PM is going to do what is promised.. This is also huge support that actions were taken and clearly a key component is the on going reconciliation between the regional government and the federal government and the region as a whole.. They need the security and stability of Iraq to be a beacon again for the region. It is going to happen.. Once they activate the sovereignty of the nation with a new international mechanism for trade? The real work gets under way to re build Iraq.. Oh ya.. Looking so very international now.. Wow.. imo ~ MM

Don961: A Kurdish deputy calls on the Minister of Finance to take steps to stop manipulating Iraqi imports from Zakho to Basra
Policy 05/24 2020 18:17 224 Editor: ht Baghdad today –
Baghdad On Sunday (24 May 2020), the Kurdish MP, Hoshyar Abdullah, called on the Minister of Finance, Abdul Amir Allawi, to take steps to stop manipulating Iraqi imports from Zakho to Basra.
Abdullah said in a tweet on his platform via "Twitter", addressing the Minister of Finance: "We support you in reducing the salaries of the higher grades, cutting the huge petty cash on the three presidencies, abolishing the extra administrative bodies and links, and preventing any manipulation of Iraq's imports from Zakho to Basra."
Abdullah had said Saturday (023 May 2020), "There is optimism in the performance of the Minister of Finance and I see that he is yet accurate in his proposals to reduce the repercussions of the financial crisis to a large extent, and therefore I see that his steps deserve support and support."
The statement added: "We are waiting for him to look at the employees of the region as he looks at the employees of the rest of the provinces," noting that "there is an opportunity to resolve financial problems with the region constitutionally, and we must make this crisis an opportunity to implement radical financial reforms."
He stressed "the need for the regional and center governments to solve their problems away from prejudice to employee salaries." link
MilitiaMan: Thank you Don, another gem talking about implementing radical financial reforms.. Radical as in the removal of three zeros and apply REER? That would work for me.. lol ~ MM

China is being forced to decide whether it wants to maintain its global influence or feed its own people as the coronavirus throws a major spanner in the works of its $1.5 trillion plan to exert influence around the world.

Samson: China’s plan for $1.5 trillion Belt and Road empire left in tatters by coronavirus pandemic
24th May 2020
China is now “facing its own worst nightmare” as its $1.5 trillion plan to exert influence around the world has been blow apart by the coronavirus
China is being forced to decide whether it wants to maintain its global influence or feed its own people as the coronavirus throws a major spanner in the works of its $1.5 trillion plan to exert influence around the world.
As part of its ambitious Belt and Road Initiative to win friends and influence people, China has dished out hundreds of millions of dollars to over 126 countries in recent years in the form of cheap infrastructure loans.
The idea was to connect countries across continents on trade by creating a 6000km sea route connecting China to South East Asia, Oceania and North Africa, an element known as the “Road”. It also wanted to create a “Belt” by building railway and road infrastructure to connect China with Central and West Asia, the Middle East and Europe. However, the economies in many of these nations have collapsed under the strain of the global coronavirus pandemic.
China is understood to have invested $1.5 trillion dollars in the program. And, while the leaders of those countries are increasingly worried about how they’re going to pay back their Belt and Road loans, China is suffering its own economic downturn.
Professor Jane Golley an economist and director of the ANU’s Australian Centre on China in the World (CIW) said this all means the superpower has been left “facing its own worst nightmare”. She told news.com.au China now has to balance providing financial relief for the suffering nations that signed up to the loans, and the needs of its own people — as its economy shrinks for the first time since the Mao era.
Ultimately she believes there will be a far more urgent need for China to spend the money fixing its own domestic issues leading to a significant slowdown in its ambitious global planning. “As the friend-set for China diminishes, particularly with the rising tensions with the West, they’ve got a bigger incentive to back their own friends, but they’ve got the added incentive to stimulate domestic growth because they’re under such serious pressure,” she said.
“They’ll be under so much pressure that I think stimulating the domestic economy will ultimately become more important for them.” Not only that, she says there are rumblings about China sending hundreds of millions of dollars abroad at a time when the nation’s people, many of them living in developing world conditions, are scraping by in the midst of an economic crisis.
The Kiel Institute, a German research group, has valued China’s lending to the developing world at more than $520 billion in recent years, meaning it has become a bigger lender than the World Bank or the International Monetary Fund. “Imagine you’re living in the hills in rural China, where you don’t have electricity or a proper road into town,” she said. “You’d want to see the money spent there instead.”
China is also facing pressure over the Belt and Road on an international stage as the nations that signed up are asking for some form of relief on their debt repayments.
The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has been accused of employing a “debt-trap strategy” by countries like the US and India who say the Belt and Road Initiative is saddling poorer countries with debts they will not be able to pay off. About half of the nations which have signed up are considered high-risk debtors.
Now the economies in those nations have gone belly up because of the global coronavirus pandemic, it is certain they won’t be able to pay off the debts they owe any time soon. What’s more, many of them are so poor they had to put up their ports and mines as collateral to secure funding.
According to a report in the New York Times, Djibouti - a small country on the horn of Africa - has debts to China which jumped to more than 80 per cent of its annual economic output. Meanwhile, Ethiopia’s debt to China totals 20 per cent of its annual output. In Kyrgyzstan, the amount is about 40 per cent. However, Professor Golley said the idea that China poured money into nations that they knew would collapse makes “zero economic sense” and there’s no evidence that’s the case.
Now she says China is “facing its own worst nightmare” as it watches economies failing in the nations it invested in so heavily in, while it suffers its own downturn. “I mean, what do they do? They’ve got their own economy crumbling and people in need of desperate need of financial support, but if they don’t come to the rescue of all the other countries they lose all that money as well,” she said. “So they’re going to have to strike a balance.” Aside from the money involved, one of the key goals of the Belt and Road was for China to gain allies across the world — a strategy to make friends and influence nations as it were. But now, in a COVID-19-affected world, it is seeing its reputation take a pummeling.
Western nations in particular are openly questioning its role in the coronavirus outbreak, after Chinese officials downplayed the severity and contagiousness of the disease at the beginning of the year. The country also bowed to international pressure this week and said it would back a review into the source of the virus pandemic, but only once it’s “under control”. In other words, China not only stands to lose money it invested globally but the trust and influence it wanted to gain through the Belt and Road Initiative in the first place. LINK

Frank26 ...in Iraq their currency is now going to play fairly because they added value IMO and they stopped using the auctions and they stopped using the American Dollar...Trump said lessen your dependence on our American dollar and they did...Iran was siphoning all the money we were sending to them through the Iraqi auctions and it was supplying terrorism...they're [Iraq] getting the last parts of the monetary reform done. Trump and the Fab 4 said that that's enough time wasted. Move on it. Do it...at any moment it could happen suddenly...it's an accounting process. It's all about the numbers.
Pimpy Everything has been pointing toward the month of June. We don't know why. But my thing is this - The bi-weekly budget, the fact that Pompeo, the United Nations and the IMF are gonna be there in June. It doesn't mean anything I'm just saying it seems to me like it does...look, I don't know what's going on but I can't help but feel whatever is coming it's happening in June. There's a lot of things pointing out to June. There's a lot of crap happening in May but there's definitely, definitely a lot of things happening in June. They started drilling in these fields on the outskirts [of Iraq] where it's reported to have 10x the amount of oil that's already being reported in Iraq. 10 times that amount. All I keep hearing is rate change. Rate change. Rate change...

Does Frugal Have A New Normal?
.Does Frugal Have A New Normal?
May 24, 2020 Mr. Tako
Do you consider yourself a frugal person? I used to think Mrs. Tako and I were pretty frugal people. If you remember our backstory, the two of us were good savers in our 20’s and 30’s which allowed us to reach financial independence by age 38.
We saved, but we didn’t suffer. We traveled internationally quite a bit, ate delicious meals, and generally had a very luxurious life — all while saving a good chunk of our income.
That was the past, and this is now. Today I’m not feeling nearly as frugal as I used to. A lot of it has to do with changes happening in the world with response to COVID-19. All the little things we used to do to save money are now being done by A TON of people.
For example, instead of eating out, more people are cooking meals at home. Many of the same people are making coffee at home instead of going out for a daily latte. They’re also cutting their own hair, working-out at home, and DIYing housework instead of hiring it out.
Does any of this sound familiar? It’s because many of those frugal behaviors are things I’ve written about on this blog. The same little tricks that Mrs. Tako and I used to save up to our multi-million status.

Now, everybody’s doing it! It has me wondering: Are we still frugal if everyone else is doing the same thing? Maybe it’s time to step-up our frugal game!
Stepping-Up Our Frugal Game
As mentioned in my last post, one of the best ways to keep compounding during a recession is to tighten your belt, spend a lot less, and plow money into investments.
It doesn’t matter if you thought of yourself as frugal person in the past. Now is the time to really “get ahead” by saving and investing when the markets are down (or flat) for the year.
What makes this the perfect time to make lifestyle changes, is there is no social pressure right now. With so much of the world social distancing, and many of our societal “norms” being disrupted, absolutely nobody is going to judge you if you start doing things a bit differently. It’s the perfect time to push yourself out of your comfort zone and find ways to save!
These new methods might seem a little strange by “the old rules”, but they will certainly pay off in the long-term, when the economy recovers.
Yes, I have complete faith that the economy will eventually recover, but it is going to take some time. How long? I have no idea… but for now, all we can do is focus on what we can control. Namely, our spending.
The New Frugal
Knowing that we needed to tighten our belts a little, I’ve been brainstorming ideas on how to save cash in this new COVID world.
Some of these ideas might seem a little outlandish, but in order to really save money, altering your behavior is the single fastest way to save.
Here’s a few of the more interesting ideas to save I’ve come up with:
