The first 45 minutes will be the CBD Gurus. Then Mark will give the news of the day

Member: Good Morning and welcome to the weekend

Member: Hello Mark, Mods and Dinarians from around the globe...!

Member: Sure seems quiet everywhere

MZ: News is fairly light. I did finally track down some of my redemption center folks. They are on a retreat this weekend with fellow employees. I wonder what they are discussing?  They did not share specifics…..but I know they are not at the banks.  I found this interesting.

MZ: On the bond side there are lots of rumors. Many expecting full blown dollars in this upcoming week. Some I know have disappeared and some have become suddenly wealthy but won’t talk. We just need to buckle up and wait for the truth to filter out.

MZ: There is extreme quiet from the groups. I find this interesting because many have traveled for the groups over the last week and a half. I think they were told to be quiet.

Member:  MarkZ: What do you think: “Iraqi al-Sudani dismissal of 41 directors & 89 acting officials following 1,135 semi-annual evaluations.”

MZ: There is a big clean up going on in Iraq. “Sudani announces the dismissal of 41 directors general and the referral of 4 ministers to the judiciary”  These are people in government positions hired to do jobs that they were not doing. Money was disappearing and there was incompetence and corruption. Sudani is cleaning house….and the timing is pretty important here.

MZ: There is a mass push from Kurdistan and the government to clean it all up right now. Possibly (I hypothesize) before the reset. There is a sudden concern to clean up every single piece.

MZ: There are many solid rumors that they just destroyed 62 trillion dinar. And there is a shut down and control of all financial borders that has happened this past week. This is all exciting in my book.

MZ: “ Kurdistan region overcomes the affects of attacks and produces more than 200,000 barrels of oil per day” So oil is flowing…..but where is it going? 

MZ: “Parliamentary source accuses the KRG of violating the oil agreement with Baghdad” They say the revenues do not reach the public treasury but go to the benefits of the ruling parties. It’s a major discussion going on right now. They are very concerned the Kurdish people are about to rise up and remove the Kurdish government. We don’t know the truth right now.

Member: MarkZ: IYO: Is there a connection between removal of troops from Iraq and Trump mentioning $35 billion in Holding accounts for payment????????????

Member: Trump signs EO for Sovereign Wealth Fund-- Was on Fox news

Member: Hope that has something to do with the future reset.

Member: I hope everyone has a blessed weekend. fingers crossed that we pass the finish line this weekend.

Member: Enjoy the weekend everyone…..God bless.

The Ultimate Gold Revaluation Guide: 6 Methods Explained

The Ultimate Gold Revaluation Guide: 6 Methods Explained

Miles Harris:  8-8-2025

Gold revaluation is not just a theoretical exercise; it’s a practical monetary tool that can resurface under real economic pressure - something the Federal Reserve’s recent discussions and notes subtly acknowledge.

While the Fed has not explicitly endorsed gold revaluation, their exploration of alternative monetary anchors, especially amid mounting inflationary pressures and questions about dollar dominance, suggests the idea isn’t entirely off the table.

In this video, we consider six distinct paths through which gold could be revalued, ranked from the least to the most likely.

Some remain speculative, others are already being quietly tested or at least seriously considered by policymakers.

For decades, the idea of gold playing a central role in modern monetary systems has largely been relegated to the annals of economic history. However, a subtle yet significant shift is occurring, suggesting that gold revaluation – far from being a mere theoretical exercise – is resurfacing as a practical monetary tool.

 It’s a tool that could be dusted off under real economic pressure, a notion subtly acknowledged even by institutions like the Federal Reserve.

The current global economic landscape is rife with the very conditions that historically prompt such considerations. Persistent inflationary pressures are eroding purchasing power, while unprecedented levels of national debt raise questions about fiscal sustainability.

Simultaneously, the long-standing dominance of the U.S. dollar as the world’s primary reserve currency faces increasing scrutiny amidst geopolitical shifts and the rise of alternative financial blocs. These combined pressures are leading central banks and policymakers to quietly explore alternative monetary anchors.

While the Federal Reserve has not overtly endorsed a return to a gold standard or explicit gold revaluation, their recent discussions and internal notes reveal a heightened interest in the resilience of monetary frameworks and the potential for alternative stability mechanisms.

This isn’t an explicit embrace, but rather a cautious exploration of options in a volatile global economy. The very fact that gold is being discussed, even cryptically, within these high-level financial circles indicates that it’s no longer an entirely off-limits topic.

At its core, gold revaluation involves officially increasing the price of gold in terms of a national currency, often to shore up a central bank’s balance sheet, manage inflation, or restore confidence in a currency. Historically, it was a mechanism to adjust to economic realities. But how exactly could such a revaluation unfold in the 21st century?

A recent analysis delves into this complex question, outlining six distinct paths through which gold could potentially be revalued. These paths range from the highly speculative to those already being quietly tested or seriously considered by policymakers.

 It’s a nuanced discussion that moves beyond mere theoretical debate, delving into the practical mechanisms and potential triggers for each scenario. Understanding these potential pathways is key to grasping the future of global finance and the role gold might play.

The increasing discourse around gold revaluation signals a fundamental shift in how central banks and governments are thinking about monetary stability in an era of unprecedented economic challenges.

 For those seeking to understand the intricate dynamics at play and gain deeper insights into the specific mechanisms that could bring gold back into the monetary fold, the full video from Miles Harris offers invaluable perspectives.

Iraq Economic News and Points To Ponder Saturday Morning 8-9-25

The New Reform Document Puts The Banking Sector On The Brink Of Collapse.

August 8, 2025  Baghdad - Nada Shawkat 
Banking experts have criticized the recent decisions of the Central Bank of Iraq, describing them as lacking in national spirit and aimed at serving the interests of foreign banks and Oliver Wyman at the expense of national banks.

The experts said yesterday that "the private sector supports financial and banking reform, but not at the expense of the local banking system, which has long suffered from a lack of opportunities in global markets due to Iraq's unique circumstances."

 They pointed out that "the second banking reform document issued by the bank directly threatens the existence of the national banking system," stressing that "the document's contents put the Iraqi financial system on the brink of collapse, and no one clearly knows who will truly benefit from it.

" The experts explained that "these decisions contradict the bank's mission to protect monetary and financial stability," stressing that "their implementation may be impossible and could lead to a significant deterioration in the Iraqi banking sector."

The experts called for "the need to immediately review the provisions of the document to preserve the vast human capital of more than 24,000 specialists working in national banks," warning that "the continuation of these policies could widen the gap between citizens and banking institutions and lead to long-term negative impacts on the national economy."

The Central Bank laid the foundation for a comprehensive transformation in the digital payments sector, with advanced measures and strategic visions aimed at achieving sustainable development.

Al-Alaq said during the Comprehensive Transformation of Electronic Payments Conference yesterday that “digital transformation has become a strategic choice in building a modern state, a diversified economy, and transparent government services, as international experiences have proven that digitization is not a luxury, but rather a fundamental driver for sustainable development, improving the work environment, empowering youth, and developing vital sectors.”

 He added, “We are facing a historic opportunity to make up for lost time and launch a clear vision towards an economy capable of facing challenges, fighting corruption, and creating an attractive environment for investment.

” Al-Alaq explained that “the Central Bank has worked to develop electronic payment in an integrated and secure manner, including payment and settlement in accordance with the highest international standards and practices.”

He went on to say that “these systems have contributed to enhancing the efficiency and reliability of financial operations and supported the implementation of strategic initiatives in partnership with the government, to localize salaries, electronic immunization, and development financing programs.”

He pointed out that “the bank, based on its role in managing monetary policy and regulating the financial and banking sector, is working within its plan to consolidate the infrastructure for electronic payment by implementing a number of national projects.”

Al-Alaq stressed that “the most prominent of these projects is the instant payments system that allows “The second project is the unified gateway for payments and government entities, which facilitates payment procedures, reduces manipulation, and increases trust,” he continued, adding that “the third project is the national card scheme, which builds an independent national system that preserves digital sovereignty, reduces dependence on external systems, and opens the door to products that suit the local market.

The fourth project is developing the national department to support the significant increase in transaction volume and ensure the speed and stability of operations within a secure environment.”

He pointed out that “the fifth project is establishing partnerships with regional and international institutions and deepening cooperation with global payment networks to benefit from their advanced tools .”  LINK

Friday, August 8, 2025, | Economic Number of reads: 346  Baghdad / NINA / Parliament Speaker Mahmoud Al-Mashhadani discussed with a delegation of Iraqi and international experts and academics supporting legislation related to digital currency and strengthening the financial market.

The meeting, according to a statement from the Parliament Speaker's Office, discussed successful experiences in the United States and the UAE in the field of financial technology, while discussing the results of the delegation's discussions with the Governor of the Central Bank of Iraq.

Al-Mashhadani affirmed the Parliament's support for any legislative steps that keep pace with global developments and open the doors to investment, stressing the importance of creating a modern financial environment that strengthens Iraq's position in the digital economy.

The delegation included Dr. Oz, a member of the New York City Council, Bryar Rashid, a member of the Parliamentary Economic Committee, Judge Salar Abdul Satar, the former Minister of Justice, and Haider Ali, an economic expert residing in Australia. https://ninanews.com/Website/News/Details?key=1245348

Gold Is Heading For Gains For The Second Consecutive Week

economy | 08:56 - 08/08/2025  Mawazine News - Follow-up  Gold futures jumped to a new high in early Friday trading following a report that the United States had imposed tariffs on one-kilogram gold bullion imports.

Spot gold is on track for a second consecutive week of gains, benefiting from market turmoil due to tariffs and hopes of a US interest rate cut.

By 0104 GMT, spot gold was down 0.2 percent at $3,389.37 per ounce, after hitting its highest level since July 23 earlier in the session. The precious metal has gained 0.8 percent so far this week, according to Reuters data.

US gold futures for December delivery rose 1.6 percent to $3,509.10, after hitting an all-time high of $3,534.10.   https://www.mawazin.net/Details.aspx?jimare=264734

Oil Prices Fall Due To US Tariffs

Economy | 09:04 - 08/08/2025  Mawazine News - Follow-up:  Oil prices are heading for their biggest weekly loss since late June, as investors fret about the impact of tariffs that took effect yesterday on the global economy.

Brent crude futures fell 3 cents to $66.40 a barrel, heading for a weekly decline of more than 4%, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures fell 6 cents, or 0.1%, to $63.82 a barrel, on track for a weekly loss of more than 5%, according to Reuters.

The higher U.S. tariffs against a group of trading partners took effect on Thursday, and ANZ analysts said in a note that these tariffs raised concerns about weak economic activity, which would affect global demand for crude.

Oil prices have been under pressure since OPEC+ decided this week to completely cancel the largest portion of its production cuts in September, months ahead of schedule. West Texas Intermediate crude settled lower on Thursday for the sixth consecutive session, and if it closes lower today, it would be its longest losing streak since August 2021.  https://www.mawazin.net/Details.aspx?jimare=264736

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

Trump Removes Billy Long as IRS Commissioner — Shortest-Ever Tenure in Role

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump has removed former U.S. Rep. Billy Long as IRS commissioner less than two months after his Senate confirmation, marking the shortest-tenured IRS commissioner since the position’s creation in 1862.

Sudden Exit, New Appointment

It is not immediately clear why Long was dismissed.
In a post on X, Long announced Trump had nominated him for an ambassadorship:

“It is a honor to serve my friend President Trump and I am excited to take on my new role as the ambassador to Iceland. I am thrilled to answer his call to service and deeply committed to advancing his bold agenda. Exciting times ahead!”

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent will serve as acting IRS commissioner, according to a White House official.

Turmoil at the IRS

Long’s departure comes amid ongoing instability at the nation’s tax agency:

• The IRS has gone through four acting leaders since the start of Trump’s second term.

• The agency has lost a quarter of its workforce since the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) began its cost-cutting initiatives.

• Staff reductions have brought headcount from 103,000 in January to 77,000 by May 2025.

A Short-Lived Plan for Reform

In his first message to employees after confirmation, Long emphasized creating a new culture:

“In my first 90 days I plan to ask you, my employee partners, to help me develop a new culture here... one that makes your lives and the taxpayers’ lives better.”

Long never reached that 90-day milestone.

An Unusual Pick

• While serving in Congress (2011–2023), Long sponsored legislation to eliminate the IRS.

• A former auctioneer, Long had no prior tax administration experience.

• The Senate confirmed him 53–44 despite concerns about:

• His past work for a firm involved in a fraud-ridden pandemic-era tax credit.

• Campaign contributions received after his nomination.

Controversies and Investigations

• Long worked with a firm promoting the employee retention tax credit, later shut down as fraudulent.

• Democrats have called for a criminal investigation into his connections with other alleged tax credit schemes.

• Allegations claim that firms linked to Long sold fake tax credits, duping investors out of millions.

Acting Leaders Before Long

Long’s predecessors in an acting capacity included:

• One who resigned after an IRS–DHS deal to share immigrant tax data with ICE.

• Another whose appointment sparked a public clash between Elon Musk and Scott Bessent.

Ripple’s RLUSD Stablecoin Surges Past $600M Supply in July

Market share expansion and record transaction volumes mark a strong summer for Ripple’s dollar-pegged asset.

Ripple’s RLUSD stablecoin experienced a 32.3% supply growth between June and July, pushing its circulating supply above $600 million. This marks RLUSD as the second-fastest-growing stablecoin among those with over $500 million in supply, trailing only Ethena Labs’ USDe, which surged 63.4% in the same period.

Since May, RLUSD has nearly doubled its total supply, growing from a $309 million market cap in May to $455.3 million in June — a 47% month-over-month increase. As of August 1, supply had already increased another 3%.

Record-Breaking Transaction Volumes

In July 2025, RLUSD’s cumulative transfer volume crossed $11 billion.

• July posted a record monthly high of $3.3 billion in transaction volume — a 27% jump from June.

• RLUSD has never dipped below $1 billion in monthly volume since April, when it first hit $1.8 billion.

Ripple’s Push for Market Share

July’s growth coincided with Ripple’s strategic moves to expand RLUSD’s footprint:

1. National Banking Charter

• CEO Brad Garlinghouse announced plans to secure a national banking charter, in addition to existing New York Department of Financial Services registration.

• If approved, RLUSD would be the first stablecoin under both state and federal oversight in the U.S.

2. Custody Partnership

• On July 9, Ripple named BNY Mellon as RLUSD’s custodian partner.

3. Global Expansion Strategy

• U.S. Positioning: Leveraging the Federal Reserve’s adoption of ISO 20022, where Ripple was the first blockchain company to join the Standards Body in 2020.

• Europe Entry: Pursuing MiCA compliance with a planned base in Luxembourg for EU market penetration.

Skepticism and Criticism

Despite the surge, questions about organic growth remain:

• Blockchain investigator ZachXBT questioned RLUSD’s user base authenticity before deleting his social media post.

• He later stated he trusted other issuers — Circle, Paxos, and Tether — “infinitely more than Ripple.”

Beijing and Moscow Boost Trade Amid U.S. Tariff Threats

July trade between China and Russia has surged to $19.14 billion — the highest monthly figure this year — signaling renewed momentum in bilateral exchanges despite escalating U.S. tariff threats.

Key Points

• July trade volume: $19.14 billion — an annual record and an 8.7% increase from June.

• Imports vs. exports: Chinese imports from Russia rose to $10.1 billion (+4.02% YoY), while exports to Russia fell to $9.1 billion (–8.91% YoY).

• Trade surplus: Russia posted a $13.34 billion surplus with China from January to July, matching 2024 levels.

• Historical context: Trade hit $240.11 billion in 2023 (+26.3%) and over $244 billion in 2024, both records.

• U.S. pressure: Former President Donald Trump has threatened 25% tariffs on Chinese imports over Russian oil purchases — similar to sanctions placed on India.

Bilateral Trade Rebounds After Early-Year Decline

The July surge ends a seven-month slump that saw trade between the BRICS partners fall 8.1% compared to the first half of 2024. While the rebound is a positive signal, it has yet to offset earlier declines — a reflection of shifting market conditions, seasonal trade cycles, logistical constraints, and geopolitical uncertainty.

Energy Cooperation at the Core

China remains firm in defending its energy ties with Russia. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs reiterated that economic, trade, and energy cooperation with Russia is both “legitimate and legal” and aligned with national interests.

Russia remains a key energy supplier to China:

• Oil: 108.5 million tons shipped in 2024 — about 20% of China’s total crude imports.

• First seven months of 2025: 32 million tons — 4 million tons less than last year.

• Other commodities: Coal, natural gas, copper, and timber.

In return, China exports manufactured goods to Russia, including automobiles, electronics, and smartphones.

Geopolitical Implications

The firm stance from Beijing underscores a dual strategy:

1. Safeguarding energy security against potential supply disruptions.

2. Deepening BRICS economic integration in defiance of U.S.-led trade restrictions.

If July’s record signals renewed trade momentum, the months ahead will test how resilient this partnership remains under the weight of possible new tariffs and fluctuating energy flows.

Tishwash:  KRG Expands Solar-Powered ATM Network to Boost Cash Accessibility Across Kurdistan

Ahmad stated that the KRG’s investment in solar-powered ATMs aims to provide “24-hour access to cash” for both citizens and visitors. The initiative is part of the KRG’s broader effort to modernize financial infrastructure and promote sustainable energy solutions

The Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) has significantly expanded access to cash across the region through the deployment of solar-powered ATM hubs, according to a statement by Aziz Ahmad, Deputy Chief of Staff to the Prime Minister.

In a post published on X on Thursday, Ahmad stated that the KRG’s investment in solar-powered ATMs aims to provide “24-hour access to cash” for both citizens and visitors.

“This has paid off — with over 430 new ATMs now deployed across the Kurdistan Region,” he stated. "The number is expected to grow to nearly 1,000 by the end of the program."

The initiative is part of the KRG’s broader effort to modernize financial infrastructure and promote sustainable energy solutions, particularly in areas with unreliable access to electricity.

The use of solar energy to power ATM systems is gaining traction globally as governments and financial institutions seek eco-friendly and cost-effective solutions to banking challenges. In the Kurdistan Region, the initiative embodies a dual strategy of expanding financial inclusion and enhancing public services, particularly in rural and underserved areas.

The move also comes as part of ongoing KRG reforms in digital governance, infrastructure development, and economic resilience in the face of regional instability. link

Record $100 Billion in T-Bills Issued as US Debt Crisis Turns Desperate

Record $100 Billion in T-Bills Issued as US Debt Crisis Turns Desperate

Taylor Kenny:  8-8-2025

The United States government recently executed an unprecedented financial maneuver, selling a staggering $100 billion in short-term debt—the largest such sale in history.

This colossal issuance of four-week Treasury bills, as highlighted in a recent analysis by ITM Trading’s Taylor Kenney, is far from a sign of economic strength. Instead, it serves as a stark warning of growing financial stress, rapidly increasing borrowing needs, and the accelerating erosion of the US dollar’s global standing.

The core issue stems from the government’s struggle to manage its ballooning debt and deficit. Unable to cover its obligations through sustainable means, Washington is increasingly relying on short-term debt instruments.

 While convenient in the immediate term, this strategy is inherently unsustainable. It exposes the economy to significant volatility and liquidity risks, as these short-term bills must be continually refinanced, creating a precarious cycle of dependency.

Historically, the US has benefited immensely from robust global demand for its debt, primarily due to the dollar’s undisputed role as the world’s reserve currency. However, this bedrock of financial stability is showing cracks.

 The ITM Trading video underscores that international demand for US debt is declining. Factors such as the perceived “weaponization” of the dollar in geopolitical conflicts, the exportation of inflation to other economies, and an overall erosion of US credibility on the global stage are prompting other nations to diversify away from dollar-denominated assets.

This waning demand directly translates to higher borrowing costs for the US government, forcing it deeper into the trap of short-term financing. While money market funds currently absorb much of this short-term debt, this reliance brings its own set of liquidity concerns.

The situation is further complicated by the Federal Reserve’s anticipated move to lower interest rates. Such a shift could diminish the attractiveness of short-term bills, exacerbating demand issues and potentially creating a difficult environment for future debt sales.

A key indicator of systemic liquidity and financial health, the Fed’s overnight reverse repo facility (RRP), also merits attention. A decline in its usage, as observed recently, signals tighter liquidity within the financial system, pointing to potential stress beneath the surface.

Ultimately, the unprecedented $100 billion debt sale, coupled with the weakening global demand for the dollar, paints a clear picture of an accelerating currency decline and increasing financial instability. This trajectory, as warned by the ITM Trading analysis, is poised to significantly impact the standard of living for ordinary citizens.

 In response to these profound shifts, central banks and financial elites are increasingly turning to gold, recognizing its enduring value as a reliable store of wealth amidst turbulent economic waters.

This comprehensive analysis from ITM Trading serves as a critical call to awareness. It highlights that the current US debt issuance trend is not merely an economic footnote, but a significant warning sign of deeper financial vulnerabilities and ongoing geopolitical reconfigurations.

For both institutional investors and individual citizens, understanding these dynamics and strategically planning for the evolving economic landscape is no longer optional, but essential.

Houston, we have a Problem-Iraq in a Compromising Position

Houston, we have a Problem Iraq in a Compromising Position

Edu Matrix:   8-7-2025

Iraq is currently navigating a period of intense political deliberation, as proposed legislation aimed at formally integrating the Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) into the nation’s security framework stirs significant controversy both domestically and internationally.

 This escalating political tension, as highlighted in a recent video from Edu Matrix, centers on radical changes that could redefine Iraq’s security landscape and its delicate diplomatic balance.

At the heart of this unfolding drama is the Popular Mobilization Forces, a coalition predominantly composed of Shiite militias that rose to prominence for their crucial role in the defeat of ISIS.

The new laws seek to legitimize and expand the PMF’s role in national defense, providing retirement benefits to its fighters and effectively institutionalizing the group as a permanent component of Iraq’s armed forces, operating directly under the Prime Minister’s authority.

Supporters of the legislation assert that these measures are a necessary and honorable recognition of the immense sacrifices made by the PMF in combating terrorism. They argue that formalizing the PMF’s status is crucial for fully integrating these forces into the state’s official security apparatus, thereby enhancing national stability and cohesion.

However, the proposed laws have drawn sharp criticism, particularly from the United States and a faction of Iraqi lawmakers. Critics warn that such measures could dangerously entrench Iranian influence within Iraq’s political and military spheres, thereby undermining the nation’s sovereignty and independence.

U.S. officials have explicitly expressed concern that legitimizing the PMF as a permanent entity could significantly alter Iraq’s internal power dynamics, potentially weakening the state’s independence and shifting the balance of power in the region.

The contentious nature of the bills has already manifested in Iraq’s parliament, where Kurdish and Sunni lawmakers staged walkouts in protest. Their opposition stems from procedural concerns and a perceived lack of proper debate surrounding such a monumental piece of legislation.

 Despite these protests, the legislation has successfully passed a second reading, and proponents are now pushing for a final vote.

The impending decision is poised to be a watershed moment for Iraq. Its outcome will not only impact the country’s internal security dynamics and the future of its armed forces but also its intricate diplomatic relations with both Washington and Tehran.

Iraq finds itself at a critical crossroads, facing a choice that will undoubtedly have profound and lasting implications for the nation’s stability, its relationship with key global powers, and its very definition of sovereignty.

Good to have our audience from all over the US and Canada and some Mexico and some of Latin America, as well as what the satellite team is getting all around the globe. Our satellite team doing a great job.

 Let's go into where we are in the Intel world. I've got a lot of things to share And now let's talk about where we stand on Intel. Okay, tomorrow is the eighth. It's August, 8. Eighth. Eighth. It could be significant. It really could be. You guys know, I’m very optimistic, but I don't want to mislead you. What we're getting from some sources are, let's talk first about bond holders

We've got bondholder pay masters with Wells Fargo that are saying, Thursday, Friday. We've got one specific that said notifications tonight and tomorrow, pending notifications  - pending tonight and tomorrow, which is the eighth and those are notifications for us.

We know bondholder traffic is pretty strong in Reno right now, and we know some of those people are coming up with smiles on their faces and indicating that they should have funds available tomorrow. We had other people that are bond holders telling us they should have funds available Friday, Saturday or Sunday, and it might be staggered like that on purpose.

I'm hoping that we do get notified tomorrow and we start exchanges Friday or Saturday and get the thing done. I really am serious.

 I really want that, like you all do, to be the case. I really am looking forward to it. So we've got that. We also heard from Iraq that Iraq is pulling themselves out of the oil. Let me think what it's called.

Hold on a minute. Guys out of OPEC, the oil producing countries that are like a conglomerate. They are pulling themselves out of OPEC, hopefully by tonight, because something needs to happen tomorrow, because something is supposed to happen tomorrow, that's why they want to remove themselves from OPEC by tonight. Let's see if that happens.

Now. What else going on? We haven't seen any action on the tariff rebate checks. We don't know for sure they are about to start. You know what you guys my gut feeling is that all of that NESARA type activity, like the rebate checks or President Trump's latest term is or tariff dividend checks. Dividends.

We've had them called DOGE Checks - called tariff rebate checks, termed dividend these are dividends from the savings and  from the tariff revenue  that is coming in through the external revenue service   IRS, but external revenue. Revenue coming in from outside  the US not inside – External Revenue Service

 Trump  just wrapped up his first 100 Days -  incredible, getting so many things accomplished, and soon he'll be nailing down the peace  between Ukraine and Russia, hopefully meeting with those two leaders next week. Hopefully all three of those guys will get together and hash this thing out, but he is already, you know, in position to receive the Nobel Peace Prize. For arranging peace so far, six different situations.

Now to be fair  those things need to happen for GESARA to be fully implemented. It's a condition of GESARA - And so I’m looking forward to that happening and finishing and coming through. But he has, if you guys saw anything yesterday, you saw where Apple was with the President, and Tim Cook from Apple was in the office with President Trump yesterday, talking about bringing  an additional  $100 billion investment from Apple into this country.

And they already committed five hundred billion  or half  trillion dollars already. That brings it up to 600 billion of investment from apple in this country . President Trump is absolutely bringing a lot of revenue into this country.

And if you guys could see that you're seeing lower prices manifest, you're seeing gas prices should be down below $2 pretty soon in most places, except California, which has ridiculous tariffs on it their own taxes. But hopefully they'll get a clue and do the right thing over there.

 I can go on commenting, but let me just say,  we have a great opportunity to make a huge difference with our projects with everything that God has given us to do with everything and what this blessing  is going to be and I'm looking forward to getting started

Now.  I wasn't ready to start the ground  running quite so fast but the opportunity has presented itself to where we may be in if we can get this RV done, and I can get in and out of the med bed like I think next Friday, next week,

Just saying Bob talking about coming in late on the 14th  I may not even make the call. I hope we don't have a  call the 14th . I don't know. I'm hoping this thing  gets done tomorrow. And we're on our way.

That's just as plain as I can put it.  And if we don’t get it. I can't get in the med bed then it’s not going to happen next week - I'd like it to but it may not. So we'll see what happens.  You guys – if you want to Pray for something – pray for that.

Obviously we pray for that happened yesterday. We know that God, please bring this home, bring it into us, and then let us get moving along with what projects we have, whatever we want to do. I don't expect everybody to start immediately with projects.

I think you should take some time to breathe, make some time to  vacation - plan your move if you're going to make a move or a new house. Cars, not such a big deal, but it is important to get a comfortable ride that you want to pick up.

I mean, we're really going great guns and I’m looking forward to it. I'm enjoying this. So far, the planning stages are going well. I can't wait. Let's see if there's anything else I can think of that is relevant. I think said what I needed to say, we we're hearing that. We're right there again.

We've heard the term “any minute now”. We've heard the term, “this is our week”, the banned phrase on the big call  as you know-

 And then we'll send out an email blast when we have the 800 numbers. So if you register your email, you'll get the other thing is, we will the 800 number if we're allowed to.  I'm going to make the assumption that we'll be allowed to do that and post it on the home page of big call universe.com, my website.

All right, so I've given you a lot of different things tonight. I appreciate you. I want to thank you. Want to thank Sue again for doing a wonderful job in every aspect tonight, as she always does on prayer requests, praise reports, the teaching, just everything her segment, it's all good.

And Bob, thank you for using the bumper music everything your segment, and your commentary on the teachings we all love that I love Sue’s  and Bob's comments. And thank you everybody for that.

Thank everybody for just being faithful to God and to us as a call to listen to twice a week. Alright? So let's pray the call out, and then we'll say good night,

All right, you guys. I appreciate that. Check out frame my flag.com. And know that the proceeds the prophets go to help rebuild western North Carolina. All right. Thanks, everybody. Appreciate you. And let's go ahead and and turn off the recording now.

Seeds of Wisdom RV and Economic Updates Friday Afternoon 8-8-25

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

India’s US Lobby Fights to Block Full BRICS Pivot

India’s growing ties with BRICS are being quietly but aggressively counterbalanced by entrenched lobbying forces aligned with U.S. interests. Despite official participation in the BRICS bloc—and its upcoming BRICS presidency in 2026—India remains hesitant to commit fully to the economic realignment, due in large part to domestic political pressure and powerful U.S.-aligned networks.

How U.S. Lobbying Shapes India’s BRICS Role and Foreign Policy Shift

While India makes diplomatic moves toward BRICS, American lobbying efforts continue to influence key economic decisions behind the scenes—especially when it comes to trade policy, multilateral agreements, and long-term strategic partnerships.

Trade Numbers Reveal Strategic Contradictions

Although public narratives suggest rising trade tensions between the U.S. and India—particularly around tariff threats—the trade data tells a different story:

• India–U.S. goods trade reached $129.2 billion in 2024

• U.S. exports to India rose by 3.4% to $41.8 billion

• Indian exports to the U.S. hit $87.4 billion, up 4.5% from 2023

• The trade deficit widened to $45.7 billion (a 5.4% increase)

Despite these strong figures, U.S. lobbying groups use them to argue against deeper BRICS economic integration, especially in key sectors like manufacturing, services, and digital infrastructure. This misalignment between trade performance and political rhetoric is part of a broader campaign to stall India’s pivot toward a multipolar economic framework.

RCEP Exit Highlights Washington’s Influence

India’s 2020 decision to walk away from the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP)—a major multilateral trade agreement—has become a pivotal example of U.S. lobbying power.

• The Peterson Institute estimated India lost $60 billion annually by not joining RCEP

• Officials claimed the decision protected domestic industries

• In reality, the logic broke down when compared with India’s participation in BRICS

Many of China’s regional competitors—including Japan and Vietnam—joined RCEP, while India bowed out under U.S.-aligned pressure. One analyst criticized the move by quipping:

“Being in BRICS and not joining RCEP would not get Modi’s advisers admission to the mohalla kindergarten.”

The Malleable Lobby’s Unshakeable Faith in the West

Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, India’s pro-U.S. lobbying ecosystem has exerted outsize influence over national strategy. This network operates with almost religious loyalty to U.S. interests, consistently favoring Western alignment over BRICS-led alternatives.

Even under Trump’s administration, where Indian citizens and policies were frequently criticized or sidelined, the lobby held firm. The explanation lies in vested interests: many stakeholders—especially in business and finance—stand to lose if global trade shifts away from the U.S. dollar.

This creates a powerful incentive to resist BRICS integration, regardless of the economic benefits on offer.

Stalled Foreign Policy Transformation

India is set to lead BRICS in 2026, and its official rhetoric increasingly emphasizes multipolarity. Yet in practice, its foreign policy transformation remains incomplete. The U.S. lobby continues to:

• Delay institutional reforms that would deepen BRICS alignment

• Influence public narratives around trade, tariffs, and global alliances

• Protect Western-dominated financial structures from disruption

As a result, India risks missing out on billions in potential gains from the BRICS economic pivot. The lobbying influence has managed to subordinate India’s BRICS participation to existing U.S.-centric policy frameworks.

Conclusion: Lobbyists Blocking a Geoeconomic Realignment

India’s U.S. lobby has effectively become a gatekeeper to foreign policy change, leveraging institutional power to stall the country’s full integration into BRICS. While India’s participation continues on paper, real economic shifts remain constrained, ensuring the country’s destiny remains tied to Western financial dominance—at least for now.

Economist’s “Gold Revaluation” News and Views 8-8-2025

Trump Lights Gold Revaluation Fuse - LFTV Ep 235

Kinesis Money:  8-8-2025

In this week’s Live from the Vault, Andrew Maguire reveals how Trump’s escalating anti-Fed rhetoric may have lit the fuse for a gold revaluation, as US officials scramble to contain rising physical demand through synthetic price interventions.

With BRICS-aligned exchanges hoovering up undervalued metal and central banks abandoning short positions, Andrew suggests the Federal Reserve may be fighting a losing battle, as growing gold buying steadily shifts the market’s dynamics.

Timestamps:

00:00 Start

01:28 Gold sell-offs engineered, but physical demand grows.

 09:04 Leveraged futures forced delivery; physical demand overwhelms paper.

19:14 BRICS buying overwhelms paper gold; prices climb steadily.

 26:04 Silver escapes London; BRICS drive price higher soon.

 33:15 Global gold liquidity forces shift in price benchmarks.
