The US debt trap is finally snapping shut American officials have been warned for decades: the uncontrolled buildup of national debt cannot remain costless forever.

In July 1944, in New Hampshire, forty-four nations signed the agreements that would govern global finance for the next three decades. The U.S. dollar was pegged to gold at thirty-five dollars per troy ounce; other currencies were pegged to the dollar.

Strikes on the Rear: New Tactics of the Ukrainian Armed Forces... In a recent video review of the two recent major strikes on #Russia using fixed-wing #UAVs, I noted that, due to the sharply increased activity of the so-called "small air defense" of the #Russian Armed Forces, the enemy is forced to change tactics and switch to more massive, simultaneous strikes.
