THIS IS WHAT PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS DONE FOR AMERICA! HE PUT AMERICA FIRST! Our current account HUGE QUARTERLY DEFICIT OF $440 BILLION WAS MORE THAN HALVED TO $190 BILLION IN ONE QUARTER! 🇺🇸👏👍 TARIFFS AND RENEGOTIATIONS OF TERMS OF TRADE WITH 75 COUNTRIES AND HUGE INCREASE IN OUR EXPORTS! • Goods exports hit a record $563.6 billion (up sharply from Q3). • Goods imports fell to $805 billion (down from $812.9 billion in Q3). • The primary income balance flipped from a small deficit of $2.5 billion in Q3 to a surplus of $23.9 billion in Q4. This was driven by a record surge in U.S. receipts from abroad: they reached $405.7 billion, with important returns on U.S.-owned foreign business Overall, the annual current-account deficit narrowed to about $1.12 trillion, which is 3.6% of GDP. Expect CONTINUED NARROWING of this deficits THIS IS SOLID TRADE POLICY!

"Trump has degraded, tariffed and threatened America's allies and then complains when they don't support America. What has Trump done to make India, Japan, Korea and others feel more attached to America?" questions former US Ambassador Rahm Emanuel

VERY ERRONEOUS STATEMENT, Mattoo! We NEVER CAME EVEN CLOSE OF REJECTING INDIA AS Rahm Emmanuel affirms! It is a baseless political attack on Trump ahead of the midterm elections. Are you going to take an opposition’s attack without neither verification nor commentary from the attacked? THIS IS THE REALITY: Pakistan has a mutual defense agreement with Saudi Arabia and it is likewise a Muslim Sunni country. The Saudis and the other Sunnis around the Gulf were attacked by Iran. Therefore, the mediation by Pakistan is the appropriate choice for this situation. Not a Hindu country like India. And this current closeness with Pakistan does not imply REJECTING INDIA, as you wrongly affirm. India has a longstanding policy of semi neutrality and buys a large proportion of its oil from Russia. They have always maintained an independent, neutral predisposition. And the U.S. has recently adopted a more transactional, less concessional approach, prioritizing immediate economic and political wins over long-term strategic investment in general across the board. We sanctioned Russias’s oil sales to everybody, including India. And India also went through tariff negotiations, like another 74 countries. We do keep good relations in tech and military cooperation in the Quad, bilateral trade enduring goals aiming for $500 billion, with ongoing U.S. investments in India by Big Tech and student and diaspora ties. And we share concerns over China, defense interoperability and democratic alignment. The US has now a pragmatic deal-making approach, dictated by our current economic realities and objectives, rather than the former concessionary relationship of the past. The dialogue has become more even-sided rather than blindly complacent towards India’s demands. NOT A REJECTION AT ALL!

"Four US Presidents invested years in pulling India closer to America. But now India has been totally rejected by the Trump administration. We have picked Pakistan over India," says former US Ambassador Rahm Emanuel ripping into Trump's foreign policy

@Vincent55569295 @SecScottBessent @VDombrovskis @USTreasury No! WE are their BIGGEST EXPORT MARKET AND WE PROTECT THEM! We are close allies and our mutual trade benefits both!

@SecScottBessent @VDombrovskis @USTreasury You have lost all credibility; the EU will distance itself from the US and will find new allies.

Yesterday, I met with European Commissioner for Economy and Productivity @VDombrovskis to discuss our respective fiscal and monetary policy outlooks. I updated Commissioner Dombrovskis on actions taken by the @USTreasury to apply maximum economic force against the Iranian regime through Economic Fury, and we held productive talks on critical minerals supply chains and the reconstruction of Ukraine.

- She says she is a Former Intel op. She is doing a baseless hit job on Secretary Bessent ahead of midterm elections! Funded by whom? SOUNDS FAMILIAR? - Remember Hillary’s Russiagate on DJT? A retired Intel created the phony ‘evidence” that was used to justify attacking DJT. - And the 51 Intel officials that signed a letter stating that the emails from Hunter Biden’s laptop had “all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation? IT IS THE SAME METHOD AHEAD OF THE MIDTERM ELECTIONS! “OLD HABITS DIE HARD!” And the info is fake, as well as the totally misguiding analysis. Has no rhyme nor reason. Read my analysis.

@SecScottBessent @VDombrovskis @USTreasury x.com/i/status/20448…

Noble Phares and Leah: you are both blatantly wrong! I have run $20 billion in funds and have 46 years of analyzing sovereign risk across more than 50 countries around the world where we deployed capital with excellent performance. No defaults ever! What is your experience and knowledge base? Democrat politics, right? My rating system predicted 87% of all country rating movements by Moody’s and S&P. I successfully avoided all the major country meltdowns of the 1990s, emerging markets crises, asian crises, Japan bail out, the dot-com bubble, the U.S. housing bubble, Russia in 2008, the China housing meltdown, and so many other country and corporate mishaps. FACT: The U.S. economy is thriving and the US stock markets are making record highs. LEAH’s “guess” about Bessent tanking the US dollar is wrong, and your attacks on our Secretary of the Treasury are baseless and thus bad-intentioned. The US dollar has been steady this year. The baseless accusations amount to a gross political hit job. There is NO REASON behind them. I worked for the best currency analyst in the world. He then headed one of the top asset management companies. The current US policy mix combines the VERY BEST, PROVEN POLICIES that drove America’s strong growth at a 4.7% average annual GDP growth rate during the Roaring Twenties… by Secretary of the Treasury Andrew Mellon under President Calvin Coolidge… … and Ronald Reagan’s targeted trade restrictions on Japanese car imports, which led to massive Japanese investments in U.S. car and auto-parts factories. Today we use them in balancing our trade with tariffs on 75 countries. These are bringing trillions of dollars into the U.S. in manufacturing investments! Yet Ms. Leah“the expert” claims she “guesses” that Bessent will singlehandedly trash the US dollar — even though the dollar has been stable this year and the economy is thriving, accelerating, and there are TRILLIONS OF US DOLLARS IN INVESTMENTS COMING IN! … and the US DOLLAR WILL sell off? Not even Russia and China would succeed! And you suggest that Bessent HIMSELF ALONE will trash it? How? with what firepower? Again. THIS IS CHILDISH!!! On what basis? Ridiculous! Soros made fortunes trading currencies, yet even he did not have enough firepower to move the world’s largest market at the time (USD–British pound). His entire fund cannot move the currency market by itself. He was EARLY in positioning, based on sound analysis. But even THAT IS NOT ENOUGH! He needed that a vast amount of investors, finamcial institutions and even central banks move in the same direction for his trade to work. They had to reach similar conclusions! Warren Buffett, with roughly $700 billion (about 30 times more capital), once placed a hedge against the US dollar’s decline to protect his investments, and held it for two years. He lost a significant amount of money and publicly admitted he was not a good currency trader. Very few people are. Leah, you are MAKING UP LIES in your hit job against Bessent and the Trump administration. The current policy mix is the dream of every knowledgeable, non-political macroeconomist. Each of its key elements has been tested in America’s past with tremendous success, as described above. I take professional offense at your low blows against Bessent, the Trump administration, and your apparent desire to see America do badly — likely because you want Democrats back in government. You are knowingly deceiving people. You know nothing about currency valuations or the factors that affect them. It STARTLES AND DISGUSTS me to see Americans trash-talking the government of ANY party to gain political power. I am sorry to see you making money with trash, made up information that misguides honest people. Shame on you. DELETE YOUR TREASONOUS POST. It aids and abets our enemies

I don’t think she is lying, rather she simply lacks a lot of information and is drawing conclusions from her limited knowledge, which is exactly what plagues much of America today. If everyone had the basic facts not muddied by politics different conclusions would be had. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is a machine, just like President Trump. You don’t have to hate them or love them; they simply do what they do. Pray to God they’re on your side when they throw their economic hand grenades. At their level, it’s not about dollar signs, it’s about power. And more often than not, a calculated loss is just part of the game in geo-economic politics.

Scott Bessent collapsed the British pound in 1992, the Japanese yen in 2013, and the Iranian Rial in 2025. Is the US dollar next? My deep dive investigation on Scott Bessent is up on Substack now (it’s free!) @theleahfiles" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">substack.com/@theleahfiles

Than you for sharing your powerful experience of conversion. It is inspiring and wonderful! God ❤️Loves❤️ ALL of us! And ““I tell you that in the same way there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent.” Luke 15:7 May God Keep Blessing You EVERY DAY of Your Life! 🙏❤️✝️❤️🙏

Three years ago today — April 15, 2023 — I walked into the Basilica of Saint Clare in Assisi as a woman deep in sin, public degradation, and spiritual darkness. I walked out marked by grace. In that holy place, I experienced Saint Clare in a way I cannot deny. She physically appeared to me and spoke to me. I know how that sounds to many people. I know some will dismiss it, mock it, or explain it away. But I also know what happened, and I know the grace that followed. The wreckage of my old life began to die that day. In a single moment, years of darkness, confusion, sin, and false identity were pierced I had sold lies and lived them. I called slavery “freedom.” I called lust “empowerment.” I called attention “love.” I called rebellion “strength.” It was all poison. The world cheered while my soul starved. But Jesus Christ did not leave me there. Through the intercession of Saint Clare, He came for me. Not when I was clean. Not when I was holy. While I was still a mess. While I was still guilty. While I was still chained. That is how mercy works. Since then: repentance, humiliation, confession, tears, healing, war against sin, and joy deeper than any counterfeit pleasure I ever touched. Let me be blunt: porn is demonic. Vanity is empty. Sexual “liberation” is often just bondage with better branding. Fame cannot love you back. Sin always overpromises and underdelivers. Christ is better. Purity is real freedom. The Catholic Church tells the truth. The sacraments heal. The saints fight for us. If you are trapped in lust, OnlyFans, porn, adultery, addiction, self-hatred, or secret shame — you are not beyond rescue. Run to confession. Run to Our Lady. Run to Jesus Christ. I am living proof that God still pulls people out of pits the world says are permanent. Saint Clare of Assisi shattered my excuses three years ago today. Jesus Christ is King. Saint Clare, pray for us.

Keynes was a member of the Fabian Society in England: their objective is to gradually get to socialism / communism. They crested the Labor Party and the London School of Economics. Britain is a basket-case today. It is ruined, under Labor’s Starmer. Socialism and Communism are all based on flawed theories that NEVER WORKED. Look at the terrible allocation of capital by China in their multi-year construction boom: they built the equivalent if SEBVEN NYCs that are EMPTY, UNFINISHED AND IRREDEAMABLE! A total waste of trillions, mandated by the centralized government of the CCP instead of being driven by market demand and profitability analyses! A HORROR. When Biden’s polls were in the tank in his second runt the Fabian Society sent a five-person team to advice him in an attempt to salvage the disaster.

Why aren’t in public school students taught that there was no federal income tax in 1776? That the constitution was changed in 1913? Instead, they’re taught Keynesian economics, and that taxation brings prosperity. Do you think that’s an accident?

The caps are not intended for yelling but for emphasys. The length is for completeness and avoid misinterpretations. Bottom line: The US dollar has been stable. Its driven by econ growth. The economy is very strong and accelerating The US market is at a record high. Her claims are made up. I.E.: Argentina borrowed only 2.5b of the 20 b line opened by the US, and promptly repaid everything. Bessent is worth $500 million+. He made tons of money, always. I analyze countries for a living and these policies are a combination of the successful policies of President Coolidge that led to the 8 yr economic boom in the twenties and the huge investments by the Japanese car industry in the US after Reagan limited their imports. We put tariffs in 75 countries… so if they want to sell in the largest internal market in the world, they need to manufacture here! Check Mate! No longer taking products from slave labor and subsidized foreign companies abroad that kill jobs here and abuse our free trade rules, while taxing our products to death in their markets!

@mark_pendelton @SecScottBessent @VDombrovskis @USTreasury I ain't reading all that, especially with you yelling. I'm happy for you, or sorry that happened though.

@TruthFairy131 Lozzy. We are ALL children of God, who IS LOVE (1Jn4:16). So the only relevant race us the HUMAN RACE. He LOVES US ALL!

🔥 It’s ok to be WHITE 🔥 We will not tolerate the radical left shaming & attacking us because of our race, the colour of our skin, because of our culture or our history. The time for tolerance is over. White is beautiful & I am proud of my race ♥️

@leahfiles So you work for THE CRINK AXIS? China, Russia, Iran and North Korea? Which one (s) is PAYING YOU?

ON TAX DAY, every single GOP Senator and 7 Democrats decided to show us just how bought off they are and send OUR HARD EARNED TAX DOLLARS to the war mongering country of Israel. I’m p*ssed. You are all about to be exposed 💅🏻

You are entitled to YOUR OPINION, (HOWEVER ERRONEOUS AND BASELESS, LIKE THIS ONE), but you ARE NOT ENTITLED to YOUR OWN FACTS! Let me explain: The US dollar has been STABLE THIS YEAR, despite all the headwinds, which are BEHIND US. -> THAT KILLS your argument for starters. Your analysis seems driven by POLITICAL DESPERATION, at the great success of America First Policies and the resolution of the Iran 47-year nuclear and terrorist threat, rather than economic science. It looks like they don’t have ANYTHING to contest with politically, and you have to keep making things up! This looks like a baseless political hit job on a stellar Secretary of the Treasury! Read my detailed post in this thread about the Strong and ACCELERATING ECONOMY that is already being ANTICIPATED by the STOCK MARKET RECORDS and ALREADY STRONG, GROWING CORPORATE, PROFITS, AND INVESTMENTS. The US economy is going to continue ACCELERATING and oil is going to drop like a rock very soon, making more income available for spending / investment. The US stock market is making NEW HIGHS AND YOU ARE PREDICTING A WEAK US DOLLAR? Not possible nor credible. The US Dollar follows US economic growth, with interest rare differentials between countries also having some influence in investment flows. And we are going to KEEP GROWING STRONGLY! US DOLLAR RESPONSE TO LEAH: “THE RUMOURS OF MY DEATH HAVE BEEN GREATLY EXAGGERATED.” Mark Twain WHAT WEAKNESS?

@SecScottBessent @VDombrovskis @USTreasury x.com/i/status/20448…

Thank you, Secretary Bessent, for your strong, judicious, and effective leadership! The sanctions are a truly EFFECTIVE TOOL! And thank you for your brilliant leadership: The US economy is greatly outperforming all expectations — and our peers and adversaries. And this is happening even with oil at these levels, something that WILL BE SHORT-LIVED. The stock market records today anticipate this and a very prompt and strong US economic and corporate profits acceleration, that we are seeing in earnings reports, as a result of the America First policies and legislation that you engineered and promoted. The Trump administration has effectively created all the conditions for this to happen. This brings to mind the GREAT US economic boom, driven by tax cuts (“scientific taxation” of Secretary of the Treasury Andrew Mellon under President Calvin Coolidge), where only the top 2% of American earners paid taxes, but tax receipts INCREASED because of the resulting memorable economic boom, allowing the US to retire of 25% of its Federal debt! And the lower taxes, together with deregulation and federal functions delegation to states through federalism, and sensible government efficiency improvements like those you just implemented, drove back then US GDP growth to a 4.7% annual average for almost a DECADE. And you added TARIFFS, which brings back enormous amounts of manufacturing US, RE-INDUSTRIALIZING! This means trillions in new foreign investments, construction of new factories, large increase in high-paying industrial jobs, increased output, GDP, incomes, corporate profits, tax receipts, a revitalization of cities all over America! The Calvin Coolidge boom could have lasted for much longer, but it was interrupted by a terrible policy mistake, acknowledged decades later by the Fed, when they ERRED in raising interest rates to 6% “to curb speculation in the stock market”! WE ARE GOING INTO A SIMILAR PERIOD OF STRONG, SUSTAINED GROWTH AND HIGHER INCOMES AND CORPORATE PROFITS BONANZA. And hopefully, the Fed’s leadership will be soon greatly upgraded so that a Fed policy mistake, like the terrible one back then, which brought the Great Depression, does not recur! Godspeed, Mr. Secretary! 🙏❤️🇺🇸✝️🇺🇸❤️🙏

Thank You for your 🇺🇸patriotic🇺🇸, virtuous, unwavering leadership and thank ALL the troops for their courage, dedication and admirable performance beyond ALL EXPECTATIONS! MAY God Bless You and Your Families Abundantly, Sir! 🙏❤️💪✝️💪❤️🙏 Psalm 17: 3 The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer; my God is my saving strength. 🙏❤️💪✝️💪❤️🙏

Never back down. #AmericaFirst

@WearForbidden @SpicyKawaii01 @FurkanGozukara I am so sorry for your angry, hating soul. May God, who IS LOVE and created you and all humanity to LOVE Him above all things and others like he Loves us, inspire you to LOVE Him and others and thus ve happy and in peace! 🙏❤️✝️❤️🙏

@SpicyKawaii01 @FurkanGozukara Thanks! More coming soon.

Masterpiece who made this 😭🤣😂

This SATANICALLY-inspired post reflects THE FANATICAL MIND VIRUS that infects the soul of the enemies of God and destroys them, their families and society, just like it destroyed Justin Faifax. FAIRFAX, who was an intelligent, educated politician, but infected by this virus, just killed his wife and committed suicide, leaving his two little children without parents. Others in the left, like Epstein, all his pedophile clients, including top business leaders and even royalty and nobility around the world that LOVE to rape and kill kids, hate God, as well, and engage in awful practices, like so so many “cellebrities” like Didi and so much of Hollywood. There IS AN IMMENSE COST: joy, innocence, internal peace, love of others and ETERNAL SOULS’ CONDEMNATION. You did not see Republican / Conservative violence after Charlie Kirk’s PUBLIC assassination AND CELEBRATION (SICK!). But we saw plenty of Schadenfreude… the PLEASURE or satisfaction derived from his cowardly assassination of a christian husband and father who spoke of love of God and others that sought the TRUTH through classical, civil socratic discourse on campuses. The left could not accept the defeat of the wrongful ethics it embraces and promotes for power and domination. It had to destroy it, like everything it offends it. It is plainly EVIL, projecting ITS EVIL VIRUS onto those who oppose it, just like in this SATANIC VIDEO…. and celebrating it with Schadenfreude! May God forgive you and inspire you to reject evil and seek Him, who IS LOVE, that He may inhabit your inmortal souls, inebriating them with His Love, that you may touch others with it, and thus be happy and at peace, rather than angry and permanently restless. Because “our hearts are restless until they rest in God” St Augustine of Hypo - first paragraph of his “Confessions”
