Opinion: In 50 years, historians will look back at what we were doing during the 2010s and 20s and think we had gone slightly mad. Here's why: bit.ly/3PiPjez
⚡️SILVER'S 'NEW REGIME' IS HERE⚠️

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old, age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them.
Lest we forget.
Australia and the Netherlands are united by shared values.
Today I spoke with Prime Minister @RobJetten about the conflict in the Middle East and its impact on fuel supply and prices around the world.
We also discussed our new Australia-EU Free Trade Agreement, ongoing support for Ukraine, and cooperation in the Indo-Pacific.
When we work together, we get better outcomes.
Gold is dropping during a war.
That shouldn’t happen.
But look:
Gold ↓
Dollar ↑
That’s the signal.
Rate cuts: gone
Yields: rising
So capital chose yield over safety.
This isn’t gold failing.
It’s the dollar winning.
Watch $DXY, not $XAUUSD.

Dollar reset coming? “ You're going to wake up one morning and your bank account could be worth 30-40% less overnight.”
@DonDurrett says the debt bubble has reached a point of no way out and the next phase could be a full monetary reset.
Don also sees the current drop in the gold price as “noise,” as he sets his top target at $7,000/oz. And he’s buying mining stocks on this pullback.

‘Something Fishy’ At Fort Knox: Giustra on The US Audit & Hidden Gold Flows
Is the paper gold market finally breaking? Frank Giustra, CEO of the Fiore Group, joins Anchor Jeremy Szafron to break down the recent market volatility, calling the flash crash a calculated "take down" and a "liquidity event." Giustra argues that after 50 years of dominance, the paper market is "losing its efficacy" as pricing power shifts to physical delivery in Asia.

In this deep dive, Giustra warns that the US is living on "borrowed time" as the national debt spirals, predicting that the "end of the time of fiat" is inevitable. He analyzes the White House's new "Project Vault," declares that "globalization is as dead as the dodo bird," and questions the "mystery" of Fort Knox—asking why the US refuses to audit its reserves while China covertly accumulates bullion. Plus, Giustra issues a stark warning on Bitcoin, stating it is "running out of buyers" and facing a "great unraveling."

The real story about Bitcoin isn’t its 50% decline, but that the biggest financial mania in history is likely over. What’s most amazing is how the scheme's promoters convinced the mainstream financial media, Wall Street banks, and elected government officials to embrace it.
The tabloids are reporting #DanAndrews is recovering from a very serious neorological episode. This must be awful for him and his family. The comments on the tabloids pages are simply appalling. It's hard to believe there are so many horrible small-minded nasty people. #auspol
“…He is in a 'very bad way'…”
I can’t help but think of the draconian covid response imposed by that person, which put millions of Victorians, young and old and everyone in between, in a “very bad way” for months and months and consecutive months.
That’s all I have to say about it.
Australia, meet your 2026 Australian of the Year, Katherine Bennell-Pegg.
When Katherine was in high school, she was asked to write down three things she wanted to do when she grew up. She wrote down only one: astronaut.
In 2024, Katherine became the first person to qualify as an astronaut under the Australian flag. Meaning she is now eligible for future missions to the International Space Station.
Katherine is a respected leader in her field and an inspiration to the next generation of Australian scientists, engineers and astronauts.
In every way possible, Katherine shows her fellow Australians what we can achieve when we reach for the stars.
This evening I spoke with President @ZelenskyyUa of Ukraine to offer Australia's continued support in the ongoing fight against Russia’s illegal invasion.
Australia remains steadfast in our commitment to a just and lasting peace for Ukraine.
