Corporate America and the mega-rich are sitting on $22T in liquid assets, and the DOD can't account for $2.6T. Want to solve the debt crisis? Maybe it's time to dig into those cushions of cash. Watch the full video: youtu.be/EfHC8Yrydis?...

This feud between Trump and Musk is deeply unsettling. Our two greatest minds at odds. Who could see this coming? We're like helpless children in a divorce. Whatever will we do? It's Ketamine vs Big Mac in the Oval. I hope they patch it up so they can continue the hard work of destroying the nation.

All in a day's work. Didn't take long to find out where the $35 trillion debt went. Or how we can pay it down. Easy peasy. Part 2 in our buildup to the Big Beautiful Budget Episode coming soon. This one explains debts and deficits & reframes the narrative so we can focus on what matters.

The "Big Beautiful Bill" is a sledgehammer to working families: $625b in Medicaid cuts, $230b from food assistance. This isn't fiscal responsibility, it's abandoning neighbors when they need us most. Watch the full video: youtu.be/VQ9533LprU4?...

The stock market is not the economy. The credit market is. That's why the financial world paused when Jamie Dimon called credit a "bad risk." This episode examines credit markets and who is most at risk under Trump's regime. And another mind-blowing fact to illustrate how rigged it all is.

In April, U.S. corporations announced $233B in stock buybacks. Not a sign of confidence, but a signal of deeper economic challenges. Let's break down what's really happening. Watch the full video: youtu.be/xyGjUugYl3E?...

Pete is making the rounds already for 2028. Great steward of democratic principles. Incredible on the debate stage. Strong, capable dude. But ideologically amorphous and more of the same centrist, middle of the road packaging that we don't need. Thank you, next. #buttigieg #DNC

Corporate Stock Buybacks hit a record $233 Billion in April. 2025 is on pace to be the biggest year ever. Unlike prior periods, this recent trend reflects overall pessimism in the economy. Also, buybacks shouldn't even exist. We unpack it all in this video.

The shadow repo market is a ticking bomb. Trump's tariffs + slumping global demand = economic disaster brewing. There's an iceberg dead ahead, and we can't see how deep it goes. Will anyone buy U.S. debt when the crash comes? #USeconomy 🎧 Listen to the podcast: www.unftr.com/episodes/unf...

US oil producers break even at around $65/barrel. OPEC+ just blew a hole in the side Big Oil by flooding the market. Prices will be below $60 through 2026. We look at the good (renewables) the bad (layoffs) and the reasons behind OPEC's wild move. #oil #OPEC

Economic data paints a bleak picture: consumers buying on credit with rising late payments, manufacturing orders collapsing, port activity down 25%. Trump's policies aren't just incompetent—they're launching us toward a 1930s level economic crisis, decades in the making. Watch: youtu.be/gecNWKo0Bgc

The headlines are scary enough. But what's hidden below the surface is the stuff of nightmares. The global financial system is more complex AND fragile than they want you to know. Trump is in way over his head. #economy #tariffs #recession #liquidityCrisis

Centrist Dems think YOU have a comprehension problem, not a policy one. They mock "purity tests" while standing for nothing beyond not being Republicans. To win in politics, you actually need to believe in something. Watch the full video: youtu.be/AdPOAKsK_mY

The GOP thrives by keeping people economically scared, then giving them convenient villains. When you're struggling, it's "easier" to blame immigrants than confront the real culprits stealing your future. Simple platitudes dipped in fear. Watch the full video: youtu.be/AdPOAKsK_mY

Politics is a tug of war: Republicans pull with conviction while Democrats just grip the rope. The GOP isn't winning because they're stronger—they're winning because they actually stand for something beyond just holding power. Watch the full video: youtu.be/AdPOAKsK_mY

Catholic-run residential schools forcibly separated Indigenous children from families, stripped their identities, and punished them for speaking their languages. Many died and were buried on-site. The last one closed in 1996—this isn't ancient history. Watch the full video: youtu.be/DeUnRiYPgD4

When the dollar weakens while treasury yields rise, bond vigilantes are sending a message. The global economy rests on America's word as bond—a promise now broken. This isn't just market jargon; it's economic whiplash with consequences for us all. Watch the full video: youtu.be/mUgwv6S9v38

A proper explanation as to why Wall Street and global bond markets were freaking out last week. This video unpacks the value of the dollar, what the 10 year treasury yield means, and why there's less holding the global economy together than you might think. Oh, and Trump is trying to burn the world.

As of this moment. The Dow has returned 225% over the past ten years. That's a 12.5% return, annually. Wage growth over the same period is 3.9%, annually. Inflation averaged 3%. They "have it to give." You don't.

I truly thought DJT was on an island with this tariff catastrophe. I was so wrong. These asshats are true believers in a discredited theory from 50+ years ago. There's so much more to this story beyond weakening the dollar. #tariffs #triffin #thirdTerm #recession

The Challenger report shows that DOGE cuts led the way to liquidating more jobs in a single quarter than were cut in all of 2022. And 2021. 2017. 2014. Point being, the losses are all non-economic in nature. A forced employment crash on top of tariffageddon.

The dreaded "S" word is being thrown around a lot these days. While I argue that Trump is in fact manifesting stagflation, it's of a very different character than the 1970s crisis. As such, the policy response will have to be different as well. #stagflation #inflation #unemployment #Trump
