Bond trader and publisher of Mine, Print, Hash Matt Dines joins me for a technical discussion of how the movements in money and bond markets are giving us definitive signs of where central bank policy around the world meets with the actions of the Trump administration to rewire the flow of global capital.

Matt has a unique take on why Trump's next target in America's latest battle for independence from the old colonial powers of Europe may be closer to home than anyone was considering.

Brent Johnson from Santiago Capital returns to the podcast so we can compare notes on what's happening in the US's quest to redollarize the world while Donald Trump remakes the map of the Middle East and rewires global trade.

I asked Brent to come in and do an overview of the coming US stablecoin system and what that means for both the Fed and global central banking.

Fmr. Brig. Gen. Blaine Holt is in the house to discuss the state of strategic play concerning Iran.  We recorded this on March 5th, but it doesn't matter.  It's all still very relevant today.  Given how fast the world is changing, that's saying something.

Xoaquin Flores returns to the podcast to discuss the ins and outs of Donald Trump's recent moves in Venezuela and Iran.  We try to unpack what Trump's agenda really is and go over the mechanisms for how he advances it.  Given Trump's mercurial but hyper-rational behavior, it's no small task.
