This Is What The Final Stages Of A Bubble Economy Look Like Just Before A Collapse Happens

How does it feel to be living on the edge of a bubble just before it bursts?  -Michael Snyder
On Monday, our national debt reached 35 trillion dollars, and even the New York Times is admitting that it is growing “more quickly than many economists had predicted
To mark this milestone, the House Budget Committee released some numbers about how rapidly our debt has been growing over the last 12 months…
  • $196 billion in new debt per month
  • $6.4 billion in new debt per day
  • $268 million in new debt per hour
  • $4.5 million in new debt per minute
  • $74,401 in new debt per second
The third number in that list really stands out to me.
268 million dollars is being stolen from future generations of Americans every single hour of every single day, and hardly anyone seems to care.
We are literally committing national suicide.

Why is the democrat party allowed to do this?

“These hard-working female athletes, these boxers ... are being told that in order to be nice, they need to sit down, get punched in the face, and give up their medal and their trophy and everything they've worked for because ‘oh they're abiding by the eligibility rules,”’ Sey condemns.

To make matters even more upsetting, Yu-ting and Khelif “don’t even seem to be pretending to be female.” Images from the Olympics show the two in the area looking every bit like males.

Trump audio calls story into question: two shooters? | Blaze Media

Trump audio calls story into question: two shooters? | Blaze Media

“I find out on CNN, of all places, that an audio expert concluded that there were two shooters,” Martenson says. “There were the sounds from the guns. One, two, and three were inconsistent with those from four, five, six, seven, eight.”

But the story then was memory-holed and forgotten.

“As soon as I see that silent space, I say, ‘Well, I got to dig into this.’ So, that’s what kicked me off,” he tells Gray.

Martenson then plays the audio from the shooting, where it sounds as if the shots are from completely different guns.

“Dramatically different,” Gray comments, stunned.

  • Iran has hardly been shy about articulating its genocidal objectives against Israel. Iran's newly elected President Masoud Pezeshkian, in early July, reaffirmed "Tehran's dedication to destroying Israel." This aim, he added, is "rooted in the fundamental policies of the Islamic Republic."

Why Has the Biden Administration Donated Close to One Billion Dollars in "Aid" to Hamas since the October 7 Massacre? :: Gatestone Institute

Since October 7.... the total of US taxpayer funds donated to Gaza as a reward since the massacre on October 7 to $896 million, or close to a billion dollars. - Robert Williams
  • Biden and Blinken have "known for years" that the US aid is providing "material support" for Hamas' "tunnels, rockets, weapon procurement, and command and control infrastructure," among other terror structures, the lawsuit stated.
  • and that there is evidence the Biden administration continued awarding taxpayer cash to UNRWA even after Congress blocked funding to that group due to its support for Hamas's military infrastructure.
  • In short, the Biden administration has donated less to Sudan and DRC Congo combined, where a total of nearly 50 million people face starvation, than to Gaza, where 2 million people face no such thing. What is going on? And where is Congress?...

What might Harris look for? 
  • Based on that history, there are a few guesses: Her pick could be someone from a purple or red state, who offers geographic diversity given her roots in California. 
And — to assuage voters who still hold sexist or racist attitudes, as President Barack Obama did with Biden in 2008 — it might be a white man. 
According to some reports, her short list has narrowed to three top contenders: Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly, and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz. 
However, other names — including some of her colleagues in the Biden administration — are possibilities as well...
