Credit Suisse, Ukraine, and National Collapse

• 26:21Tim compares Credit Suisse's weekend scenario meetings to what happened before Lehman Brothers collapsed.
• 27:01U.S. policy toward Ukraine amounts to national suicide—billions spent that only strengthen Russian resolve and push Russia and China together.
• 28:10Sending fighter jets to Ukraine signals the country wants a wider war, either intentionally or because those running it are stupid.
• 28:39Economic collapse at home: artificially low interest rates for over a decade created bubbles everywhere, and now they're bursting.
• 29:18Silicon Valley Bank collapsed because the tech bubble it financed is imploding, with Credit Suisse and other banks following.
• 29:52Ukraine conflict rhetoric shifted from regional dispute over Donbas to an all-out fight for regime toppling, with U.S. participation.
• 31:07Joe Biden has obvious cognitive decline and dementia; his family's Nantucket meeting to approve his re-run is baffling.
• 32:00Biden is stuffed with drugs to appear functional, serving as the appropriate hollow face for American militarism and corporate dominance.
• 33:35Artificially subsidized American lifestyles—homes, gas, credit—rely on someone always bailing out the system from some shadowy meeting.
• 35:02The dollar is backed by military power; that's all America has left, and even that may not be enough to save the system.
• 35:40Government explanations have become idiotic and for three-year-olds, yet people accept increasingly ridiculous things because food and air conditioning still work.
• 36:25If banks collapse without a Marxist revolution, the result will be fat people sitting in streets—a Disney line where nobody knows what's broken.
• 37:19America feels like a carnival ride that's closing down; people are becoming aware they're riding a carnival that will not reopen.
