Is it too late to save the financial system?
I sat down with Richard Werner, the man who coined QE, to discuss $40T of exponential debt, interest payments bigger than the Pentagon budget, and paper claims growing twice as fast as the real economy.
We cover:

Iran is now watching its economy unravel in real time. The Statistical Center of Iran reports that GDP collapsed 10.1% during the first quarter of the Iranian calendar year, from March 21 through June 20, compared with the same period last year. Take oil out of the calculation and the economy still contracted 4.6%. This is not some minor technical recession that economists can explain away with seasonal adjustments. Oil and natural gas activity collapsed 26.4%, industry and mining fell 14.7%, services declined 4.8%, and manufacturing contracted 2.5%. Agriculture was practically the only major sector still moving in the opposite direction, growing 2.3%.

Those at the top of the economic food chain just don’t get it. They are mystified by surveys that show that most Americans are deeply upset about the state of the U.S. economy. Since their stock portfolios are doing really well and the official numbers that the government has been giving us look fine they just assume that the general public’s perception of the economy must not be accurate. But the truth is that it is their perception of the economy that is not accurate.

Argentine President Javier Milei used his United Nations General Assembly address to accuse the organization of abandoning its founding principles, failing to confront authoritarian regimes and terrorism, overreaching during the COVID-19 pandemic and proving ineffective in Argentina’s longstanding dispute over the Falkland Islands.
By yourNEWS Media Newsroom.
Argentine President Javier Milei delivered a sweeping denunciation of the United Nations from its own General Assembly podium Wednesday, calling the organization “useless” and accusing it of sustaining a bureaucracy of “fatally arrogant parasites” while failing to fulfill its core responsibilities involving peace, sovereignty and human rights.

Reflections on the Rocket-Like Rise of Sweet Shiksa Sydney Sweeney
“The three most useless things in the world are you and the Pope’s balls.” That’s a typically inventive and obscene Australian insult. But it raises an interesting question: What are the three most useful things in the world? I’d say good candidates would be Sydney Sweeney’s blonde hair and big breasts.[1] Those three things have proved very useful in boosting sales and subscriptions for American Eagle and Novig, the Jewish-owned clothing and sports-gambling companies whose Sweeney adverts have cashed in by creating controversy.

T. 22 September 2026, CHANGZHOU, China, Sept 22 (Reuters) – A US battery startup that scrapped plans to make Kentucky the site of its first factory has instead built it in China. … EnerVenue starts mass production at its manufacturing facility in the eastern Chinese city of Changzhou on Thursday.
Chief Executive Henning Rath told Reuters … “The secret sauce is this industrial cluster,” citing the density of hydraulics, pneumatics and automation specialists, along with engineers able to iterate quickly on what he called a “first-of-its-kind” line.

Eager to prove his bona fides and establish his gravitas, new Fed chair Kevin Warsh hiked the fed funds rate last week. In doing so, he revealed to the investment world that he is nothing more than the direct descendant of Bernanke and Yellen. Not a new leader with new priorities for a changing world but, instead, just another devotee to the Phillips Curve and Keynesianism.

President Trump, speaking at the Republicans’ midterm convention, pledged that if Republicans maintained control of the Congress in the November election every adult American will receive 5,000 dollars from the government.

On Wednesday, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen gave an American-style “State of the Union” address to the European Parliament in Strasbourg, France. During her speech, she proposed that Canada be admitted as an “associate member” of the ostensibly European Union. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney sat in the front row as an honored guest before delivering a speech of his own to the parliament the next day. Taken together, the Leyen-Carney parade of oratorical self-puffery exuded a nauseating bouquet of arrogance, foolishness, incompetence, and stale entitlement.
