Bruce’s Big Call Dinar Intel Tuesday Night 12-16-25

Transcribed By WiserNow Emailed To Recaps   (INTEL ONLY)

Welcome everybody to the big call tonight, December 16, and you're listening to the big call. Thanks for tuning in everybody that we're reaching, wherever you are located, and thank you for being with us at this year. We have a lot to be thankful for.

Okay, so let's do this. Let's get into some intel and figure out where we stand today, being the 16th of December, we've got nine days till Christmas, and believe the feeling is, and the sentiment is that we would like to have this before Christmas.

Now I will say this, different sources saying different things about timing, so I'm just gonna tell you what we're getting – yesterday which was what Monday, I heard that the bondholders should be receiving their notifications Tuesday or Wednesday. Well, to my knowledge, they did not receive them today.

They might later, but they haven't received them yet. So that leaves tomorrow for bond holders. We also heard that if bond holders got their emails, it would be to tell them when they had access to the funds in their account, so that theoretically , if they got their email tomorrow, they would say you have funds in accounts that are available for you or accessible to you, either Wednesday or Thursday.

We believe that we would get notifications Wednesday or Thursday of this week. We had that from one of our upper sources now at Wells Fargo. However, we have also heard regarding Wednesday, that we got this from Iraq. Comes from very high up source that was saying that the Iraqi dinar, in fact, it came from Alak with the CBI and also alstof sudani, the prime minister of Iraq, they would have a new rate out on the Iraqi dinar Wednesday.

So we think, okay. The theory is, okay. When that happens, is it game on for us? We have a new rate. Are we ready to go?  We'll see.

That's encouraging to know they've got a new rate, and it's supposed to in the other rate that they had when we talked when they first came out with it was very and so this rate might be even better. Now it should be better, and it should be I don't know if it's going to be on forex or not.

 I had heard that it would be, and we don't know if there were bank screens and redemption center screens yet today, and I'll probably not hear about it until later tonight. There's a good possibility I'll find that out late tonight, but that doesn't do any good for this call, right? So there is that possibility.

The other thing is, we have heard from another source, who happens to be a redemption center leader, and he was passing on the information that we should have our notifications and exchanges, either, and he said it this way, either three or four days before Christmas. That brings us to the weekend this coming weekend, three or four days prior to Christmas, or two or three days after Christmas.

Now I would not be thrilled about the after Christmas, so we're going to believe and go for the before Christmas in intel information. Hopefully that is correct, and maybe we get something sooner rather than later.

Obviously, we're going to receive it whenever it comes.

However, for us to have a Christmas we need. A lot of us need to have this happen prior to Christmas, and not Christmas Eve or not Christmas day. I mean, I don't know. We'll see. We'll just have to be open to receive it whenever this blessing comes in.

Now, what about President Trump tomorrow night, speaking at nine o'clock Eastern.   It's going to be a year in review by President Trump. He's going to talk about the accomplishments in the first nine or 10 months of the year. He's going to talk about probably some future things that are in the in the works now, that should be coming to fruition, maybe as early as January. I wish he would talk about our new currency USN, but I don't know that. And you know what? I don't know if there'll be any comms in his talk tomorrow night.

I’m going to watch it, though, and I don't know, sometimes we look for things in President Trump's speeches or rallies, and there's just nothing there, or there might be a calm or a symbolic something that comes out.

And so far, what we've been looking for, which is the NESARA type announcements about and we've had a few things that have stuck in, you know, what about the fourth the $2,000 payments? What's the timing for that? I've heard different things on the timing of the 2000 you know, which is just a tariff dividend to us as a  direct deposit. What's the timing for that? When is it coming?

 I've heard,  I've heard starting first week in January.  I don't know. We'll see. I've heard other times for it, but I'm not going to go there.

I think that the other thing that we're looking for is, what about those Doge payments? Those would have been substantial and should be when are those going to start up? Does that start up near also, what about the external revenue service replacing the Internal Revenue Service?

They've retained 30% of the IRS workers that were considered good people to handle the external revenue that's coming in the external revenue service. Okay, all right, that's cool.

What about the consumption tax that the NESARA calls for, which would be approximately a 15% tax on that's on new goods that would replace all other taxes, income taxes, state, income taxes, property, real estate taxes, all of that stuff. What about that type of an announcement? Does that come after the first of the year?

Does President Trump show any of his hand tomorrow night with what is expected to happen after the first?  does he give us a signal that we are going to receive this RV and before Christmas?

You know, we're getting a little down to the wire here, so we'll have to see how that goes. Tomorrow night, nine o'clock Eastern, Standard Time, and imagine all news channels will have it. I'll be watching on Newsmax or one America news. But there are other, obviously, news channels that would carry it,

I’m trying to think if there were anything else that was prescient to us, the R and R we believe is still going to be there for us when we go to exchange in our quantum accounts.

And also make sure that you ask if you're if you have Iraqi dinar, when you go to the redemption center only, you'll be able to ask for the contract rate on the dinar, which is quite good President Trump has already orchestrated that for us some time ago. That is an excellent, excellent, crazy, high rate.

So we have dinar great take advantage of that. He wants those of us in the United States to get full advantage of the revaluation of the dinar the Dong and, of course, take advantage of the Zim to use for our projects that we had lined up. So that's going to be very important for us. I don't know if we're going to get any nuggets tomorrow night.

Maybe President Trump has a gold tie on instead of red tie. I don't know. We'll see. We'll see if there's some symbolism in it.    I think that's the majority of what that we have to look forward to.

I wish we'd get some serious NESARA type announcements. I will say this about debt forgiveness, and I don't know when this is going to be announced, but I heard today from one of our sources that student debt will be forgiven, and students that paid off their debt, that don't have any student debt, but they were diligent and paid it off, will get that money refunded to them.

That's pretty cool, because it wouldn't have been fair if people that had student debt, that were that were late, or that didn't pay or whatever, let it go and they had their debt canceled, and all of a sudden, everybody was said, Wait a minute, I paid my student debt every month. I paid those payments, and I finally paid it off. Well, those people will be rewarded, and they will get the money that they pay in for the student debt they'll get. So that's pretty cool. That's a good thing. It's very encouraged to hear that today.

So I don't know when a lot of these are question marks. We don't answer you right now, I would say I would love to see this happen in the next few days to possibly the weekend.

Maybe that's meant get notified and get started a few days before Christmas.  Maybe not. We'll see. I don't want anybody to lose hope or lose faith in the state. Stay the course at whatever Christmas you want to have now, have whatever Hanukkah ceremony that started last Sunday night. Have your Hanukkah and enjoy it and just be available and open to the blessing coming whenever they decide To release it

And of course, we've got a lot of things going on, you know, with shootings and different things that have happened, and they're trying to stop the deep state from bomb attacks in Southern California, five different attacks that they stopped, that would be taking place New Year's Day.

You know, we keep vigilant, keep our eyes and ears open and be available to report in anything that's suspicious. In your spirit, you said there's something wrong with that. There's something funny about that. I better see with that, or at least talk to somebody about and have that information passed on, because we have to be vigilant these days. You guys know what I’m talking  about

You know  Biden let in 10 or 12 million immigrants from not just Mexico and Central America all kinds of other countries. We don't know who these people are. They weren't then, and we've seen the evidence of that in some recent shootings. So stay vigilant.  Be careful.

Do the right thing. If you have any evidence that something is something is wrong, something is something's wrong, with this Holy Spirit will tell you that. Will tell you when something doesn't quite seem right, and you have to use your spirit of discernment to try to figure out what the world was going on what's wrong with this picture, right?

 So we're going to stay in faith for this to happen for us before Christmas early, nine days away. I would love to have it in the next couple of three or four days, certainly by the weekend. Would be great, if not sooner.  And of course, as typically I might or something more late tonight, it doesn't help me for this call.

We'll see what happens with our timing for our ER or the new rate on the dinar, for which really that new rate is an international way our contract rate. It's just nice to know whether it's made its way to bank screens and redemption center screens yet, etc, etc. Okay, we're going to be in great shape. A lot of people really don't know. But if you have bonds, and these are sheet bonds, I'm not referring to the Zim Zim bonds in this case, but if you've got sheet bonds, the cellies, superficialities, Red Dragon, yellow Dragon, gold Dragon, etc. You've got bonds or a box of bonds. They can actually deal with up to four boxes of bonds at the redemption center.

So if you have a box, let's say 100 bonds in it, you would just let them know when you set your appointment using the 800 number that hey, I do have a box of, let's say, gold dragons or yellow dragon bonds. Just let them know that you have that will then make sure to have a bond representative for your appointment and make you a longer appointment so they can go through it.

If you have provenance on the bonds you have to prove who you are, make sure you prove who you are. And provenance, which means the handing down of the bonds over years, gifting of it, the paperwork that shows that it started with this person and went to this person, went to that person, and so on. It's called provenance.

Nice, French word, right, provenance. And that's, that's what they would like to know. If you have them, if you have that, then you can get those bonds transacted, or hypothecated or redeemed. Is a word we use for bond redemption that'll all come out. And that's, that's going to go into your probably into your quantum account.

Okay, so I don't know if I need to go back over anything else right now. I think you guys know everything you know, far more than a lot of the bankers know. You know, a lot more than redemption center staff knows and but they're ready. They're prepared their practice. They're ready to go. And even though they're still a little clean up here, they're about four and five, they're ready.

They're ready for us. So let's just believe that there's enough cleanup that's taken place, and that President Trump has a really good talk tomorrow night at nine o'clock Eastern, and then we we get some signal that we are starting before Christmas, and hopefully by the weekend, because that's what I've heard to one of our sources is saying the weekend, and these are All upper banking level people, some top of the top of the banks.

Some are bond pay masters. Some are Uber masters, meaning top of the bond pay masters. You know, it's there's a lot going on. They're trying to get it done. We'll just hope and believe that they will get this thing done before Christmas.

And then, in that way, we could very well have a better Christmas, but remember, it's not Christmas isn't about things. It's not about presents. It's not about you know, it's more about season, which is Jesus.

So let's go ahead and pray the call out as soon as I thank Sue for doing a wonderful job, the teachings that have been great. Really enjoyed that.

And  thank you big call universe, all of you listeners all around go that have stuck with us, that are still with us for the last years. So very excited about where we are. I'm looking forward to getting this before Christmas, and we'll look forward to that, and we'll see what new information we have for Thursday night's call. We'll have a call in a couple of nights, on Thursday night, as we normally do, all right, everybody,

Let's just pray the call out, and then we'll move on from there. Okay, All right, everybody, have a great night and good day tomorrow, and we'll see you Thursday night. God bless you.

Seeds of Wisdom RV and Economics Updates Wednesday Evening 12-17-25

Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

Nigeria’s Central Bank Signals Stability as Global Volatility Tests Emerging Markets

Policy reassurance aims to anchor investor confidence amid currency pressure and global financial fragmentation.

Overview

• Nigeria’s central bank reaffirmed its reform commitment, emphasizing financial and currency stability.

• Officials sought to reassure foreign investors, amid rising global market volatility.

• Exchange rate management remains a priority, following recent naira fluctuations.

• Emerging markets face mounting pressure, as capital flows grow more selective.

Key Developments

• CBN reinforces reform trajectory
  The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) publicly signaled that it remains committed to structural reforms, disciplined monetary policy, and transparent market mechanisms despite external shocks and global uncertainty.

• Investor confidence placed front and center
  Nigerian officials emphasized consistency in policy direction to prevent capital flight and encourage sustained foreign portfolio and direct investment, particularly as emerging markets compete for scarce global liquidity.

• Currency stability highlighted as a strategic objective
  The CBN acknowledged pressures on the naira but framed recent volatility as part of a broader global trend, not a domestic policy failure. Measures remain focused on reducing distortions and improving FX market functionality.

• Emerging markets under global strain
  Nigeria’s messaging comes as many developing economies struggle with stronger capital controls, dollar volatility, and tightening global financial conditions, underscoring the fragility of emerging-market currencies.

Why It Matters

Nigeria is Africa’s largest economy and a key energy and commodities player. How its central bank manages reform credibility amid global volatility offers insight into whether emerging markets can maintain financial sovereignty without triggering destabilizing capital outflows. The outcome influences regional confidence far beyond Nigeria’s borders.

Why It Matters to Foreign Currency Holders

For foreign currency holders, Nigeria’s stance highlights a growing reality: central banks in emerging markets are prioritizing controlled stability over free-market volatility. Currency values may be increasingly managed, not purely market-driven, reinforcing the importance of diversification and awareness of policy risk during the global monetary reset.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar 1: Monetary Sovereignty Over Market Orthodoxy
Emerging markets are asserting tighter control over currency outcomes as global volatility rises, signaling a shift away from hands-off monetary frameworks.

Pillar 2: Capital Becomes Conditional
Foreign capital is no longer assumed — it must be earned through policy credibility, signaling a rebalancing of power between investors and sovereign states.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

India’s Central Bank Steps In as Rupee Volatility Triggers Currency Defense

RBI intervention signals rising global FX stress and a shift toward active currency management.

Overview

• India’s central bank intervened aggressively to halt a sharp decline in the rupee.

• U.S. dollar selling by the RBI stabilized markets, reversing one-way currency pressure.

• Global dollar volatility continues to strain emerging markets.

• Currency defense highlights a broader shift toward hands-on monetary control.

Key Developments

• RBI halts rupee’s downward slide
  The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) entered foreign exchange markets decisively, selling U.S. dollars to counter a rapid depreciation of the rupee. The move marked a clear break from tolerance of market-driven declines.

• One-way trade triggers central bank response
  Traders reported heavy speculative pressure pushing the rupee lower, prompting authorities to act in order to prevent disorderly market conditions and preserve confidence.

• Dollar strength pressures emerging markets
  The intervention reflects mounting strain across emerging-market currencies as shifting U.S. rate expectations and geopolitical risks drive erratic dollar flows.

• FX reserves deployed as strategic buffer
  India’s sizable foreign exchange reserves provided the RBI with room to intervene forcefully, underscoring the importance of reserve accumulation in a volatile global system.

Why It Matters

India’s move reinforces a global pattern: central banks are no longer relying solely on interest rates to manage stability. Direct currency intervention is returning as a core policy tool, signaling rising stress within the international monetary system and increasing fragmentation of currency regimes.

Why It Matters to Foreign Currency Holders

For foreign currency holders, India’s intervention highlights a critical reality — currency markets are increasingly policy-managed. Sudden central bank action can rapidly reverse FX trends, increasing volatility and policy risk while reducing predictability in currency valuations during the global reset.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar 1: Return of Active Currency Defense
Central banks are reclaiming control over exchange rates, signaling a move away from fully free-floating currency systems.

Pillar 2: Reserves as Power
Foreign exchange reserves are becoming a strategic weapon, reinforcing the divide between nations that can defend their currencies and those that cannot.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

Market Panic Ahead When this System Blows

Market Panic Ahead When this System Blows

Liberty and Finance:  12-17-2025

A shocking exposé has brought to light a pervasive and systemic real estate tax fraud that has been quietly ravaging the financial stability of millions of American households.

 Expert Mitch Vexler has revealed the alarming details of this widespread scheme, which has been orchestrated by local school districts and central appraisal districts across the United States and Canada.

The consequences are dire, with over 42 million households – approximately 36.7% of U.S. households – facing the very real threat of losing their homes due to inflated property taxes.

At the heart of this is the fraudulent overvaluation of property taxes, which violates both federal constitutional law (specifically the 16th Amendment) and state laws. Local school districts and central appraisal districts have been manipulating property assessments to service massive bond debts, resulting in overt taxation that burdens homeowners – particularly retirees and middle-income families.

 This has led to widespread financial distress, bankruptcy risk, and loss of homes, equity from homeowners and undermining the very fabric of the American dream of homeownership.

The scheme is perpetuated by compounded interest on bonds and the continuous issuance of new bonds, with bond debt now estimated at a staggering $5 trillion nationally. Central appraisal districts are ignoring uniform appraisal standards, instead manipulating valuations to meet budgetary targets for school districts. This not only strips equity from homeowners but also creates a deflationary spiral that jeopardizes local economies and the broader financial system.

The real-world impacts of these fraudulent practices are far-reaching, contributing to a housing affordability crisis that is pricing out first-time homebuyers and forcing many to relocate or downsize.

Local examples, such as a failed hotel project in Conroe, Texas, financed with bonds that now burden taxpayers despite no real economic return, illustrate the devastating consequences of this scheme.

While solutions exist, including legal challenges currently pending in courts, systemic resistance persists due to claims of sovereign immunity and “ultravirus” protections by government entities.

Mitch Vexler is calling for grassroots advocacy, encouraging homeowners to unite in pushing local school boards and appraisal districts to adhere to the law and stop the fraud. His organization provides extensive documentation, legal filings, and resources online to empower citizens to fight back and hold responsible parties accountable.

The situation is dire, with the potential for a catastrophic market collapse worse than the 2008 financial crisis if left unchecked. It is imperative that homeowners, policymakers, and the broader public become aware of this issue and take action to prevent further damage.

Gold Warning Issued as New Monetary System Takes Hold

Gold Warning Issued as New Monetary System Takes Hold

Taylor Kenny:  12-17-2025

The global monetary system is undergoing a profound transformation, and it’s happening beneath the surface.

The rising significance of gold is at the forefront of this change, driven by ongoing global political and economic disruptions.

 As the world becomes increasingly uncertain, gold is emerging as the ultimate safe-haven asset, poised to replace the US dollar’s historical role as the global reserve currency.

The current fiat monetary system is designed to create inflation, effectively transferring wealth from the masses to the currency issuers.

By printing currencies endlessly, governments can maintain a semblance of economic growth, but at the cost of eroding the purchasing power of their citizens.

 In contrast, gold has served as a reliable store of value for thousands of years, its value rooted in its scarcity and tangible worth.

Central banks worldwide are aggressively purchasing physical gold, not just as a diversification strategy, but as a deliberate move to position themselves for a new monetary paradigm.

This shift is driven by the erosion of confidence in the US dollar, fueled by unsustainable debt and inflationary policies.

 As foreign nations and central banks reduce their reliance on the dollar, a parallel gold-backed monetary system is emerging. This signals the approaching end of the dollar’s dominance and the inevitable rise in gold’s value.

The 1933 gold confiscation by President Roosevelt and the 1971 Nixon shock, which ended the gold standard, are stark reminders of government attempts to control wealth and enable unrestricted money printing.

These events demonstrate the inherent tension between the desire for monetary freedom and the need for government control.

As the global monetary system undergoes this transformation, individuals must prepare for the consequences. Acquiring physical gold and silver is a prudent step in protecting wealth against the rapid devaluation of fiat assets like dollars, bonds, retirement accounts, and even stocks or real estate.

 The speed and inevitability of a currency reset mean that the time to act is now, before a crisis unfolds.

In the face of this monumental shift, it’s essential to educate yourself and develop a personalized wealth protection strategy centered on physical precious metals. By doing so, you can safeguard your financial future and thrive in a world where the rules of the monetary system are being rewritten.

For further insights and information on this critical topic, watch the full video from ITM Trading. Their expert analysis and guidance can help you navigate the complexities of the emerging gold-backed monetary system and make informed decisions about your financial future.

In conclusion, the rise of gold as a safe-haven asset is a clarion call for individuals to reassess their financial strategies and prepare for a new monetary paradigm.

By understanding the transformation underway and taking proactive steps to protect your wealth, you can ensure a secure financial future in a rapidly changing world.

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

U.S. Begins Venezuela Blockade as Trump Assembles “Largest Armada”: Escalation in Oil and Military Pressure

Naval blockade of Venezuelan oil tankers intensifies U.S.–Caracas conflict, with rising geopolitical and economic fallout.

Overview

• President Trump orders a total naval blockade of all U.S.-sanctioned oil tankers going into and out of Venezuela.

• U.S. military presence in the Caribbean surges, described as the largest armada in South American history.

• Venezuela condemns the blockade as unlawful and vows to pursue action at the United Nations.

• Oil markets react, with prices rising on geopolitical risk, while enforcement and legal questions persist.

Key Developments

• Blockade officially announced
  President Donald Trump declared a “total and complete blockade” of all U.S.-sanctioned oil tankers servicing Venezuela, citing allegations that the Maduro regime uses oil revenues to fund terrorism, drug trafficking, and human trafficking. He framed the directive as necessary to reclaim U.S. “stolen” oil, land, and assets and labelled the Venezuelan government a “foreign terrorist organization.” 

• Largest armada deployed near Venezuela
  Trump’s announcement emphasized that Venezuela was “completely surrounded by the largest Armada ever assembled in the history of South America,” with ongoing build-up of U.S. naval forces in the Caribbean. 

• Venezuela condemns the action
  Caracas, led by President Nicolás Maduro, denounced the blockade as a “grotesque threat” and violation of international law, characterizing it as an effort to seize national wealth. The Venezuelan government intends to raise the issue at the United Nations and appeal to the global community. 

• Oil prices respond to disruption fears
  Oil markets saw a rebound from multi-year lows following the blockade announcement, with Brent and WTI crude rising as energy stocks gained. Analysts caution that fundamentals may limit sustained price escalation absent broader supply shocks. 

Why It Matters

The blockade marks a significant escalation in U.S.–Venezuelan tensions and reflects a broader Trump administration strategy of blending economic sanctions with military pressure. By targeting Venezuela’s critical oil exports, the policy places severe strain on the country’s already fragile economy and raises the specter of deeper conflict. Global markets and geopolitical alignments could shift as countries react to enforcement actions and diplomatic fallout.

Why It Matters to Global Energy Markets
Venezuela holds the world’s largest proven oil reserves. Disruptions to its crude exports under blockade pressure may reverberate through global oil supply chains, affecting prices, trade flows, and energy security strategies—particularly among major consumers and producers. 

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar 1: Militarized Economic Warfare
The Venezuela blockade illustrates a fusion of military force and economic policy to exert pressure on a sovereign state’s resource sector—redefining how sanctions and security strategies intertwine.

Pillar 2: Geopolitical Polarization and Legal Contention
Global institutions and foreign governments may be drawn into disputes over international law, freedom of navigation, and the legitimacy of naval blockades, potentially reshaping diplomatic alliances and norms.

This is not just geopolitics — it’s a reordering of power, resources, and legal frameworks in global affairs.

Asian Markets Rebound as Tech Leads Risk-On Shift Across the Region

Technology shares lift Asian equities as investors rotate toward growth amid global monetary recalibration.

Overview

• Asian equity markets advanced broadly, led by gains in technology and semiconductor stocks.

• Investor sentiment turned risk-on, signaling confidence despite global macro uncertainty.

• Regional divergence remains, with some markets lagging due to domestic pressures.

• Capital flows reflect global asset rotation, not economic normalization.

Key Developments

• Tech stocks drive regional gains
  Major Asian indices, including Japan’s Nikkei and Hong Kong’s Hang Seng, moved higher as technology and AI-linked shares rebounded. Semiconductor and chip-equipment firms led the advance, benefiting from renewed global demand expectations.

• China and Hong Kong stabilize cautiously
  Chinese and Hong Kong markets showed modest improvement as investors weighed stimulus expectations against lingering structural concerns in property and debt markets. Gains were selective rather than broad-based.

• Mixed performance across Asia-Pacific
  While Japan, South Korea, and China saw gains, markets such as Australia and parts of Southeast Asia underperformed due to commodity price sensitivity and domestic growth concerns.

• Global liquidity expectations influence flows
  The rebound reflects anticipation that major central banks are nearing policy inflection points, encouraging investors to reposition into growth-oriented assets ahead of broader monetary shifts.

Why It Matters

Asian equity movements often act as an early signal of global capital reallocation trends. The renewed appetite for technology and growth assets suggests investors are positioning for structural changes in liquidity, productivity, and digital infrastructure rather than short-term economic relief. This behavior aligns with a world transitioning toward multipolar capital markets.

Why It Matters to Foreign Currency Holders

Currency holders should note that risk-on equity flows often weaken safe-haven currencies while strengthening regional and emerging-market currencies. As capital rotates into Asian assets, demand for local currencies can rise temporarily — but volatility increases if expectations reverse. This underscores the importance of diversification during global monetary transition phases.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar 1: Capital Rotation Over Economic Recovery
Markets are reallocating capital in anticipation of system change, not cyclical recovery — a hallmark of late-stage monetary restructuring.

Pillar 2: Asia’s Role in the Next Financial Order
Asia’s tech and manufacturing base continues to attract global liquidity, reinforcing its role as a cornerstone of the emerging multipolar financial system.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

Flashback: $2,000 Gold Is Just The Beginning Here’s What Might Happen Next–

Flashback: $2,000 Gold Is Just The Beginning Here’s What Might Happen Next–

Notes From the Field By James Hickman (Simon Black)  December 17, 2025

Today we’ll continue to look back at past articles that have become especially relevant, as many of the trends we warned about are now playing out in real time.

 Yesterday we talked about how, back in 2022, we encouraged readers to move into real assets at a time when the dollar was irrationally strong. Gold was cheap, interest rates were near zero, and most people were still drinking the Kool-Aid.

 It was one of those rare moments when the writing was on the wall, but the price tags hadn’t caught up yet.

 Then in November 2023, gold crossed $2,000 for the first time. And we said: this is just the beginning. 

 Not because we’re gold bugs or speculators—but because we saw the early signs of the US dollar's 80 year reign of global dominance starting to shift. We were pointing to the long-term, systemic forces driving it. Out-of-control debt, eroding trust in institutions, and the creeping de-dollarization of global finance.

 We said, “we could easily see central banks around the world ditching their US dollars and loading up on gold as part of a new, de-dollarized global financial system.”

 “This could potentially trigger trillions of dollars worth of capital inflows into the gold market, causing a surge in gold prices.”

 We said $2,000 was the beginning. Now with gold trading over $4,300, we’re not going to say this is the beginning. But it’s certainly not the end. 

 Public Law 93-373 was supposed to be so boring that Congress didn’t even bother to give it a name.

 You know how most laws passed by Congress have some fancy name-- like the “Inflation Reduction Act” or the “USA PATRIOT Act” or some such nonsense?

 Well, on November 7, 1973, US Senator James Fulbright introduced a very short bill-- it was only ONE page-- that didn’t even have a name. But Fulbright’s unnamed bill ended up being one of the most important pieces of legislation in US history.

 By the time Fulbright introduced his bill, it had been two years since the legendary “Nixon Shock” of 1971. That was when US President Richard Nixon implemented wage and price controls, and canceled the US dollar’s convertibility into gold.

 Nixon famously promised the American public that there wouldn’t be any negative consequences from his actions. Yet inflation hit 3% the following year, in 1972. Then 4.7% in 1973. Then 11.2% in 1974.

Simultaneously, gold prices around the world were surging… from $35/ounce before the Nixon Shock, to more than $170 in 1974.

 But individual Americans weren’t allowed to benefit from those gains thanks to a forty year old executive order that had been signed in 1933 by then President Franklin Roosevelt.

 Roosevelt’s Executive Order 6102 criminalized the private ownership of more than $100 worth of gold in the United States. Roosevelt also gave Americans just 25 days to turn over their gold to the Federal Reserve… or else face up to ten years in prison.

 Naturally, plenty of Americans were outraged, and a number of lawsuits were filed claiming that Roosevelt’s order was unconstitutional.

 Roosevelt was rightfully worried that the Supreme Court would overturn his order. And at a certain point he considered packing the court, i.e. appointing several sympathetic judges to the Supreme Court to ensure his victory. He also considered issuing another order which would make it illegal to sue the federal government.

 Fortunately for Roosevelt, however, he didn’t have to implement any of those actions; the Supreme Court very narrowly ruled in his favor, and his Executive Order stood as law of the land for four decades… until Senator Fulbright’s no-name law was finally passed on August 14, 1974.

 It went into effect the following year, and Americans were suddenly free once again to exchange their rapidly-depreciating US dollars for gold.

 Unsurprisingly, gold prices started rising dramatically in the second half of the decade... from about $180 in 1975, to a whopping $850 in January 1980.

 And the declining dollar was just one reason for gold’s popularity; remember, the United States suffered a deluge of troubles during the 1970s and early 1980s.

 The world found out that the US President was a criminal during the Watergate scandal of 1974. Then there was the humiliating US withdrawal from Vietnam in 1975, complete with a helicopter evacuation of the American embassy in Saigon.

 Iran seized 52 US citizens in 1979 and held them hostage for more than a year.

 Inflation raged, peaking at 13.6%. The economy stagnated and fell into recession. Troubles in the Middle East (including conflict with Israel) led to energy shortages and rising fuel prices.

 Civil unrest and ‘mostly peaceful’ protests were a constant problem in the 70s and 80s. Meanwhile, criminals rampaged across American cities, and the murder rate soared. Major cities like New York, LA, and Chicago became synonymous with violent crime.

 The world stopped making sense. And gold became a safe haven from that chaos.

 There’s an old saying (originally a Danish proverb) suggesting that if history doesn’t repeat, it certainly rhymes. And I think it’s obvious that we’re facing many of the same challenges today.

 There are major problems in the Middle East. Energy is becoming scarce (especially in Europe). The US military suffered a humiliating withdrawal from Afghanistan. Civil unrest and crime rates are totally unacceptable. Inflation continues to rage. And the President, a.k.a. “the Big Guy” appears suspicious A.F.

 Just like in the 1970s, gold represents a safe haven from this chaos. And even though it’s hovering at a near-record around $2,000, I think that there is still a long way for gold to rise.

 The US national debt is now $33.7 trillion; that’s up more than HALF A TRILLION just in the month of October.

 The people in charge have absolutely zero fiscal restraint. Zero responsibility.

 Zero sense of how destructive their actions are. They spend money and go deeper into debt as if there will never be any consequences, ever, until the end of time. They’re disgustingly ignorant, and dangerous.

The truth is that there are serious consequences to all of this debt. And we don’t have to guess what they are.

 The Congressional Budget Office is already projecting that, by 2031, the US government will spend 100% of its tax revenue just on mandatory entitlements (like Social Security) and interest on the debt.

 This means that, after 2031, the funding for literally everything else in government-- from the US military to the light bill at the White House-- will have to be funded by more debt.

 That’s only 7 years away.

 Then, two years later in 2033, Social Security’s primary trust fund will run out of money; this will cost the government an additional $1 trillion in additional spending each year to keep the program running. Naturally they’ll have to borrow that money too.

 Eventually the national debt will become so large that simply paying interest each year will consume more than 100% of tax revenue.

The Federal Reserve will most likely attempt to bail out government by creating trillions upon trillions of dollars. But just as we saw over the past few years, such actions will most likely result in much higher inflation.

 Disgusted with their financial circumstance, voters across America will likely turn to Socialist politicians who blame all the problems on the evils of capitalism, rather than their own incompetence. And with a majority of leftists running the country, they’ll only make things worse.

 I also anticipate more conflict in the world, thanks in large part to the continued decline of America’s stature and reputation for strength.

 It’s also quite likely that the US dollar could lose its royal status as the world’s dominant reserve currency by the end of the decade.

 I don’t necessarily believe that the dollar will simply vanish from global trade.

 But it won’t be “King” dollar anymore. Perhaps more like “Earl” or “Viscount” dollar, alongside other currencies and exchange mechanisms-- including gold.

 In fact we could easily see central banks around the world ditching their US dollars and loading up on gold as part of a new, de-dollarized global financial system.

 This could potentially trigger trillions of dollars worth of capital inflows into the gold market, causing a surge in gold prices.

 And these are just some of the reasons why gold could still have a long, long way to rise from here.

 Bear in mind that I’m not thinking about the gold price next month, or even next year. I think long-term, and my views on gold are based on trends that will likely continue to unfold over the next decade.

 I’m not a ‘gold bug’. I don’t have a fanatical view about anything other than my own children. I’m not a gold speculator either.

 But it’s obvious to me that in an upside down world where there are such obvious long-term threats to the US dollar, it makes sense to look for real stores of value.

 And that’s why $2,000 gold could just be the beginning of a much bigger story.

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

Trump Expands Travel Ban to Seven More Nations, Including Syria

Hardline immigration policy intensifies as new restrictions take effect January 1.

Overview

• President Trump broadens U.S. travel ban, adding seven countries, including Syria.

• Policy builds on earlier prohibitions, with national security cited as justification.

• Diplomatic tensions rise, even amid U.S. engagement with some affected states.

• Legal and political challenges loom, domestically and internationally.

Key Developments

• Expansion of the travel ban effective January 1
  President Donald Trump has announced the inclusion of seven additional countries under a full U.S. travel ban, barring entry of citizens from those states starting January 1. Syria is among the newly listed nations. The move extends the scope of earlier restrictions first instituted in June, which had imposed a full ban on 12 countries and partial limits on seven others.

• National security cited as primary rationale
  The White House attributes the expanded ban to continuing deficiencies in screening, vetting, and information-sharing, which it says create unacceptable risks to U.S. national security and public safety.

• Contrasts with diplomatic efforts
  The decision coincides with recent U.S. diplomatic engagement, including outreach to Syria’s new leader Ahmed al-Sharaa, reflecting a complex interplay between security-driven policy and foreign relations.

• Context of recent security incidents
  The announcement follows a deadly attack in Syria that killed two U.S. soldiers and a civilian interpreter, and comes amid heated domestic debate over immigration after a fatal shooting in Washington, D.C., by an Afghan national admitted through a resettlement program.

Why It Matters

The expanded travel ban highlights a renewed emphasis on restrictive immigration policies in the Trump administration’s second term, even as diplomatic efforts continue with some affected nations. By prioritizing security concerns over openness, the policy could exacerbate tensions with African and Middle Eastern states and fuel ongoing legal, political, and ethical debates surrounding broad travel restrictions.

Why It Matters to Affected Populations
Citizens from the newly banned countries — including immigrants, students, business travellers, and asylum seekers — will face significant hurdles entering the U.S. Meanwhile, the policy reinforces domestic narratives linking immigration control to security imperatives, even as critics warn of diplomatic fallout and civil rights issues.

What’s Next

• Further immigration restrictions possible: Administration officials indicate additional measures could be introduced as part of an intensified security posture.

• Legal challenges likely: Civil rights groups and individuals affected by the bans are expected to mount court challenges, similar to earlier legal battles during Trump’s first term.

• Diplomatic balancing act: Washington will need to navigate strained relations with newly targeted countries, particularly across Africa and the Middle East, while pursuing broader foreign policy objectives.

This is not just policy — it’s geopolitics and national security reshaping global movement.

BRICS Push De-Dollarization, but the Dollar Still Dominates by the Numbers

Ambitions to weaken the U.S. dollar collide with hard data showing its continued global supremacy.

Overview

• BRICS nations openly pursue de-dollarization, seeking alternatives to the U.S. dollar in trade and reserves.

• Internal divisions persist, with competing visions favoring the yuan, a BRICS currency, or local currencies.

• U.S. dollar reserve share has declined, yet its role in global transactions has strengthened.

• Market reality contradicts rhetoric, underscoring the difficulty of dethroning the greenback.

Key Developments

• De-dollarization lacks unified execution
  While China, Russia, Iran, and others advocate abandoning the U.S. dollar, BRICS members remain split on what should replace it. This absence of consensus weakens collective momentum and limits practical impact.

• Dollar’s reserve share declines, but influence remains strong
  The U.S. dollar’s portion of global reserves has fallen from 85% in the 1970s to about 58% by 2025, reflecting diversification into gold and alternative currencies—particularly among emerging economies.

• Transaction dominance tells a different story
  Despite lower reserve share, the dollar accounts for roughly 90% of global foreign exchange transactions and 48% of SWIFT payments, reinforcing its central role in global trade and finance.

• Yuan adoption remains limited
  The Chinese yuan, often promoted as a dollar alternative, represents around 7% of global foreign exchange transactions, highlighting the steep gap between ambition and adoption.

Why It Matters

The contrast between declining reserve holdings and rising transactional dominance reveals a structural truth: diversification does not equal displacement. While BRICS nations hedge against dollar risk through gold accumulation and local-currency trade, the global financial system remains deeply anchored to the U.S. dollar’s liquidity, trust, and infrastructure.

Why It Matters to Foreign Currency Holders
Currency holders watching de-dollarization narratives must distinguish between long-term strategy and near-term reality. Volatility may increase as diversification continues, but the dollar’s entrenched role suggests abrupt displacement remains unlikely.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar 1: Fragmentation Delays Systemic Change
Without alignment on a single alternative, BRICS efforts diffuse rather than consolidate power, slowing any meaningful challenge to the existing monetary order.

Pillar 2: Dollar Dominance Shifts, Not Disappears
The global reset is unfolding through gradual rebalancing—more gold, more regional trade—but within a system where the dollar still functions as the primary global lubricant.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

11 Secrets To Saving More Money in 2026

11 Secrets To Saving More Money in 2026

Caitlyn Moorhead  Mon, December 15, 2025  GOBankingRates

If you noticed a drop in your savings account balance this past year, you might be thinking about making a New Year’s resolution to spend less in the coming year. If so, you aren’t alone, as everyone in this economy seems to be struggling to make ends meet.

In fact, financial stress is one of the top concerns for Americans, with many worried about living paycheck to paycheck or never being able to retire. However, with the right strategies, you can cut expenses, build savings and improve your financial health throughout the year.

From tracking your spending to automating contributions, here are 11 smart money-saving tips for 2026 that will help you stick to your goals and build your wealth.

1. Take Advantage of Deals Right Away

January is a bargain hunter’s paradise. For example, you can save up to 90% on holiday decor during after-Christmas sales. Big-box stores are trying to move inventory and their loss is your financial gain for the next December.

Winter coats, apparel and outdoor gear also tend to be deeply discounted after the holidays. Additionally, try using January sales to shop for home goods like sheets, bedding and furniture. 

2. Track Ever-Rising Prices

Some consumer goods, products or foods might rise in price next year, so do your research. Then, limit purchases of these items, stock up when they go on sale, look for lower-priced brands and purchase conventional instead of organic options.

Prices on consumer goods can fluctuate wildly in a matter of days, thanks to tariffs or just the general rising cost of living. To avoid overpaying, it’s wise to use an online price tracker or download an app to monitor rates on items you want to buy.

3. Don’t Miss Out on Price Adjustments or Price Matches

Best Buy and Kohl’s will price-match with competitors, while Target and Walmart will price-match their own inventory at different store locations. This means you can get a price adjustment if items purchased at full price drop in cost within a certain number of days. Typically, if you present proof of the price you paid to the retailer, you will be credited for the difference.

Tired of wasting time driving from store to store to find the best prices? Use free mobile apps such as Red Laser and ShopSavvy to scan product barcodes and see if another retailer is offering the product you want for a lower price. In some cases, you can even use that information to get the store you’re currently shopping at to match a competitor’s price.

4. Use Discounted Gift Cards for Everyday Essentials

Gift cards aren’t just for gifts. If you buy them for less than face value — as you can almost always do at Costco and Sam’s Club — they’re a great way to save money on things you regularly purchase.

You can also find discounted gift cards for supermarkets, drugstores, gas stations, restaurants and hundreds of retailers online at sites such as CardCash and Raise.

5. Unlock Promo Codes on Social Media

“Tidbits From TNT” Wednesday Morning 12-17-2025

TNT:

Tishwash:  Iraq and Indonesia discuss strategic cooperation in the oil and gas sector.

Iraq and Indonesia discussed on Tuesday the possibility of strengthening strategic cooperation in the oil and gas sector, which would include Pertamina International Energy Company (PIEP).

These discussions took place during a meeting held in Jakarta on Tuesday between Deputy Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources, Yuliut Tanjung, and Deputy Minister of Exploration and Production Affairs at the Iraqi Ministry of Oil, Basim Mohammed Qadhir.

Tanjung said: “The Indonesian government is committed to promoting sustainable and mutually beneficial cooperation in the oil and gas sector, not only to enhance national energy security, but also to create added value for both countries through capacity building and knowledge transfer.”

Pertamina International Energy Company (PIEP) participated in the project due to its role as an operational provider in the oil and gas sector, particularly in supporting the development of oil and gas fields in Iraq, while promoting efforts to achieve energy self-sufficiency nationwide.

Indonesian-Iraqi cooperation in the oil and gas sector is currently being prepared through an intergovernmental memorandum of understanding that has been submitted to Iraq through diplomatic channels and is currently under discussion.

The scope of cooperation under discussion includes facilitating oil and gas trade and investment, promoting technology transfer and exchange of expertise, conducting joint research, and developing human capacity-building activities.

Furthermore, the cooperation also aims to provide opportunities for Indonesian state-owned companies to participate in oil and gas projects in Iraq, and to enhance coordination between stakeholders in both countries.

Other areas of cooperation discussed include capacity building (training and universities), seismic data research and management, and drilling.

Qadhir said: “The memorandum of understanding in the oil, gas and energy sector will provide opportunities for greater cooperation between the two countries in the energy sector.”

PIEP currently holds a 20% participating interest in one of Iraq's oil fields.

The Iraqi government invited Indonesia, through Pertamina, to jointly manage existing producing oil fields and explore potential “green” oil fields, as part of a joint project.  link

Tishwash:  A presidential decree sets the 29th of this month as the date for the first parliamentary session.

 The President of the Republic issued a presidential decree on Tuesday setting the date for the first session of the new parliament on December 29, to be chaired by the oldest member.  link

Tishwash:  Sudanese advisor: 8 trillion dinars in tax revenues expected this year as a result of financial reform policies

 The Prime Minister’s financial advisor, Mazhar Muhammad Saleh, predicted that the state would achieve initial tax revenues of approximately 8 trillion dinars during the current year 2025, explaining that this figure represents about 50 percent of the total non-oil revenues estimated between 16 and 17 trillion dinars, at a time when initial estimates indicate the possibility of non-oil revenues rising to about 18 trillion dinars by the end of the year .

Saleh said, "These indicators reflect a gradual shift in the structure of public revenues as a result of the policies adopted by the government within its economic and financial reform program, which aims to reduce dependence on oil as a primary source of public revenues and to enhance resources." 

He explained that “the government, with legislative support from the House of Representatives since 2022, has developed a broad reform roadmap aimed at raising the contribution of non-oil revenues to about 20 percent of total public revenues in annual budgets, after it did not exceed 10 percent in previous years, which is considered a structural transformation in public finance management.” 

Saleh explained that “improving the efficiency of indirect tax collection, especially customs, is an important factor, as every 1 percent increase in the efficiency of customs collection, at current levels, provides additional revenues exceeding 800 billion dinars annually,” stressing that “these additional resources have a real ability to finance the salaries of tens of thousands of public service employees and alleviate the pressure on the public treasury.” 

The financial advisor pointed out that “raising the efficiency of collection is directly related to bringing the tax authority into the scope of broad digital governance, especially in collection and enforcement operations, explaining that this transformation has begun to take its practical course through the electronic customs project, which has begun using information technology and ASYCUDA systems in the inspection and evaluation of goods entering the country.” 

He added, "These steps complement the control of border crossings and linking them to modern electronic systems, in addition to coordinating with foreign trade financing systems in foreign currency, in order to achieve better control over import movement and reduce waste and misuse of foreign currency provided by the state." 

Saleh emphasized that "these measures combined contribute to reducing tax evasion, whether in customs duties or the resulting commercial profits taxes, as well as enhancing transparency in import, pricing and external financing operations."  link

Tishwash:  The Sudanese government summarizes its achievements in the economic sector and promises employees salary adjustments.

Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani spoke on Tuesday about the achievements made during his tenure as head of the Iraqi government regarding the economy and energy sector, while indicating that the time has come to address the disparity in the salaries of state employees and to achieve fairness and justice among them.

In a televised interview followed by “Mail”, Al-Sudani said, “The three-year budget provided stability in spending and ensured the financing of projects, and I expect we will not go to three-year budgets anymore,” indicating that “Iraq’s budget was $24 billion in 2004.”

He added that "the number of employees in 2025 is 4 million and 550 thousand," noting that "the number of civilian and military retirees is 2 million and 960 thousand."
