Washington just raised the debt ceiling by another $5 trillion — and no one’s even pretending to stop the bleeding. In this episode, Jeff Deist, General Counsel for Monetary Metals, breaks down why America’s fiscal situation just significantly worsened. He exposes the truth behind the “Big Beautiful Bill,” the political theater of debt ceiling debates, and why there’s no longer a party for fiscal conservatives. From the slow decline of U.S. economic power to the myth of growing our way out, this episode pulls no punches.
