Antoun,

It does seem there are various agendas converging.

The question is whether they succeed in world domination and sucking all the wealth into their pockets, or do they blow themselves, and likely some percentage of the world, up in the process.

Given Russia has escaped their clutches and China didn't just tag along, like Japan, as well as much of the rest of the world and many of their own citizens realizing they are up to no good, it does seem like all this clamping down is more desperation, than part of the plan.

The problem with those feedback loops, is they turn from positive to negative at the crest of the wave, when the costs start to exceed the benefits.

In history, empires usually take a century or more to really fall apart, but given the real power is control of the financial system, this one is based on history's largest bubble and when bubble pop, shit happens.

Going to watch the interview. See if she acts coherent.

Ouf. I'd say at least three glasses of wine.

Make a good nurse, or day care center worker.

Definitely not doing her campaign any favors.

I can see why they haven't let her talk to the press previously.

Love to see how they spin this.
