U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessent on Iran:
βWe engineered a dollar shortage inside the country, and it had rapid effects. The tipping point came in December, when one of Iranβs largest banks collapsed following a bank run, forcing the central bank to print money.
The Iranian currency then went into a free fall, inflation surged, and as a result, weβve seen the Iranian people take to the streets.β

Fascinating and shocking at the same time. Monetary warfare to collapse regimes.

Smart guy but the most punchable face I've seen in a while. Bet he's real fun at parties. He and Elizabeth Warren should just bang already.
Yeah, I understand most people still don't want to scrap the government for some reason, but can we get at least get a Constitutional Convention?
Ah, my sneaking suspicion, that the protests weren't organic but instead orchestrated by outside interference, confirmed.
If the US Gov't can manipulate geo-economic factors with the intent of causing and directing civilian unrest towards political enemies with this level of effect, there's no way they could do something similar at home, even if they wanted to, right? Which, of course, they don't...
This is a lesson. Every protest movement, past/ present/future, should be viewed through this lens. Statecraft f***ery knows no bounds. Civilians are disposable tools.

Of course the Jesuits are shutting down a Jesuit run country.
Well, those same Jesuits will come back to bite the Americans in the ass once the dick sucking stops, the economy around the world collapses, and the third spirit unto frogs begins.
There will be no superpower other than Vatican City, London, and the District of the Roman goddess, Columbia. Everywhere else will be subservient to the Jesuits, and take the Mark of the Beast (sucking the Pope's cock).
