#BRICS trading group is gaining steam while US Dollar is losing steam. As of 2021 18.5% of all trades were settled in Yuan, by 2022 it jumped to 26.6%.
Iran is trading in Yuan
Iraq is trading in Yuan
India is trading in Yuan
Brazil is trading in Yuan
France is trading in Yuan
Russia is trading in Yuan
Sri Lanka is trading in Yuan
Argentina is trading in Yuan
Saudi Arabia is trading in Yuan
It’s only a matter of time for Yuan to takeover the US Dollar as the world reserve currency unless something drastically changes.
IF YOU WEAPONIZE YOUR CURRENCY (USD) ENOUGH TIMES, OTHER COUNTRIES WILL STOP USING IT
They’re talking about sanctions on other countries to trade internationally
BRICS member states account for over 40 percent of the global population and around a quarter of the global GDP.
The greenback has become more unreliable for dollarized economies due to rising interest rates regulated by the FED and the weaponization of the dollar by sanctions.
Former Morgan Stanley analyst Steven Jen warns the dollar is falling off a cliff. #Dedollarization is happening at record speeds from USD share of 73% in 2001 to 55% in 2020. Then it fell off a cliff losing 8% in a year to 47% in 2022 due to sanctions.
Gotta agree with @balajis
We have a multipolar world and the US is coming to terms with it…
Their days of CIA misinformation, mainstream media misinformation, declare regime changes and military bases everywhere are dwindling fast.
A 13 year old girl asked Warren Buffett about the U.S dollar losing its reserve currency status with the debt hitting $31 trillion a 125% of GDP and countries fleeing from the dollar.
She’s asking a better question than 99% of journalists.

#BricsCurrency vs. #USDollar
Where do y’all think we are in the west. This is definitely not looking good.
GDP of BRICS >> GDP of G7
BRICS+ includes Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa and soon Indonesia, Saudi Arabia and 13 other applicants. This multipolar alliance is bigger than the G7. It will end US hegemony and the US dollar as a reserve currency. The expiry date of US empire is set.
"We absolutely cannot protect the economy if the US defaults on its debt," said the Fed's Neel Kashkari.
US Dollar being a world reserve currency is a confidence game. Debt defaults and these standoffs don’t instill confidence.
Look at the countries primary trading partners shift every 30 years (3 decades) from USA (1960) to Germany (1990) to China (2020)
China is the world’s largest manufacturing hub and the worlds largest trading partner for most countries now.
From negotiations perspective, USA isn’t in a position of strength, China is.
From an economic perspective, USA no longer holds the bargaining chip, China does.
From a diplomatic perspective, USA lost its credibility through lies, wars and sanctions. China has an upper hand from this regard as well.
From a capital investment perspective I’d rather invest in China and India rather than US & Europe.
The United States government is inadvertently declaring war on its own currency
Egypt 🇪🇬 to settle trades with BRICS nations in their local currencies from India, China and Russia 👍
“Why do we need to trade goods & services between Kenya & Djibouti in US Dollars?”

Putin Is Right Again About The New Multipolar World Getting Stronger
Putin at St. Petersburg Economic Forum: "The neocolonial international system has ceased to exist, while the multipolar order is getting ever stronger. This process is inevitable."
Almost 20 countries have applied to join BRICS as per Russia’s🇷🇺 Deputy Foreign Minister
The new BRICS currency being discussed will reportedly be backed by gold, rare earth metals and the other natural resources of the BRICS members, with expansion bringing in the vast natural resource wealth of new members.
While the US dollar is backed arguably by nothing other than the US’ military dominance and declining hegemonic bullying, will the arrival of the BRICS currency deal a quick and fatal blow to the position of the dollar as the world’s most dominant currency 🤷♂️
East is dominating the west in the future
BRICS will dominate G7 going forward
BRICS to launch new currency backed by gold at August 2023 summit
‘Gold standard will be a great benefit to strengthening new single currency’

#BRICS >> G7 and USD de-dollarization continues
Russia confirms that BRICS countries are launching a BRICS currency backed by #gold.
It’s on the agenda for BRICS South Africa meeting in August. 41 other countries have applied to join BRICS.
De-dollarization is happening fast.
The Chinese yuan will never replace the US Dollars as the world reserve currency… because the Chinese government doesn’t want the filthy rich to exit the country
Brazil president calls for an end to US dollar trade dominance and the weaponization of the dollar with sanctions on the poor countries

Now say the US Dollar is the strongest currency
China has partnered with the Bank of International Settlements to create mBridge, a digital payment system that completely bypasses SWIFT and 🇺🇸 US banks

Dedollarization is happening fast
America and the west is scared of what China is doing in Africa. They’re beating the west in their own game financially but with much better success since they’re not colonizing Africa like the west.
Morocco 🇲🇦 joins the race, officially submits the application to join BRICS
Donald Trump — The US Dollar is losing its position as a dominant world reserve currency. This is a bigger loss than any war. If this continues the economy will be in shambles.
XI JINPING addresses South Africa media before the BRICS summit 👍
"We should fear no hegemony, and work with each other as real partners to push forward our relations amid the changing international landscape."
"What the world needs today is peace, not conflict; what the world wants is coordination, not confrontation. China and South Africa, as natural members of the Global South, should work together to appeal for greater voice and influence of developing countries in international affairs, promote accelerated reform of international financial institutions, and oppose unilateral sanctions and the “small yard, high fence” approach. We should jointly safeguard our common interests."
The BRICS bank vs. The World Bank
The BRICS Bank is preparing to lend in South African and Brazilian currencies to reduce reliance on the US Dollar.
The World Banks purpose is to destroy small countries that are in trouble by lending at huge costs and demanding much more than interests.
Dedollarization continues to undermine the dollar at the worlds stage and the more countries trade in their own currencies, the weaker the dollar gets.
BRICS is winning, G7 is losing 🤷♂️
The biggest lesson United States can learn from this is… going forward in a multipolar world, sanctions don’t work
Eastern economies will grow much faster than the western economies. The era of financial slavery and colonialism in Africa will come to an end. No more stealing.
Goldman Sachs says the BRICS will dominate the world economy by 2050 yet the western media is completely silent on what’s happening.
The western hegemony is over and the east will rise going forward.

As of May 2023, the BRICS Bank has lent $33 billion to 96 infrastructure projects. They will be lending much more in the next couple of years. You will see the NDB taking a larger role in nation building than the IMF & World Banks.
While America is making more enemies, China is making more friends
23 nations are officially very interested in joining BRICS
The rise of the BRICS
Chinese President XI Jinping’s statements:
- BRICS countries should oppose economic coercion and focus on business cooperation.
- BRICS countries should expand political and security cooperation, maintain peace and tranquility.
- Cold War mentality persists today, geopolitical situation grim.
- China is ready to cooperate with all parties to establish a mechanism for sustainable industrial exchange and cooperation in the BRICS countries.
BRICS just announced that Argentina, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Egypt and UAE are members. Dedollarization continues and the petrodollars are dead.
6 new countries are joining BRICS by January 1st 2024. They can all start trading goods and services in their local currencies.
BRICS countries now control 80% of the world's oil reserves and more than 35% of global GDP. The #PetroDollar is toast and US hegemony is at stake.
They are developing a single currency for international trade.
‘We already live in a post-American and a post-Western world. We’re in a world where the BRICS countries are larger than the G7 countries…the US is a quarter of a century out of date’
-Jeffrey Sachs
BRICS+ 6 countries
BRICS now covers more than 1/3rd of the entire worlds population
Why Ethiopia? What’s the significance of joining Ethiopia into BRICS and also establishing the headquarters there?
Because it is a direct appeal to the rest of Africa. Moreover, the appeal is at the level of historical feeling. Ethiopia is the only country on the African continent that has never been a European colony. There simply could not be a louder signal for the entire Black Continent than the admission of Ethiopia to the BRICS.

Humpback whales have been observed engaging in remarkable acts of intervention during orca hunts, often swooping in to shield seals, sea lions, sunfish, and even gray whale calves from the relentless pursuit of killer whales. These gentle giants use their massive bodies as barriers, flipping their powerful flukes to disrupt the orcas' coordinated attacks and vocalizing loudly to scatter the predators. In one documented instance, a humpback arched its chest out of the water to cradle a seal on its back, repeatedly nudging it back to safety as orcas charged. This behavior isn't rare—scientists have recorded over a hundred such events—highlighting a deliberate pattern where humpbacks charge into the fray, sometimes traveling great distances upon hearing the distress calls of hunted animals, turning what could be a swift meal for orcas into a chaotic standoff.
The motivations behind these heroic interruptions appear rooted in a mix of instinctual self-preservation and an expanded sense of protection. Since orcas occasionally target young humpback calves, adult whales may have evolved to react aggressively to the sounds of orca predation, mistaking or not caring about the actual prey in their drive to thwart the hunters and reduce overall threats to their kind. This response could stem from traumatic experiences of past attacks, programming humpbacks to intervene broadly as a survival strategy. While some speculate true altruism at play, the core drive seems to be safeguarding their own vulnerable offspring by disrupting the orcas' feeding habits, inadvertently extending a lifeline to other marine creatures caught in the crossfire.
Infographics are essential to convey information to people in the modern world.
The United States stands out as an anomaly among developed nations, pouring an exorbitant amount into healthcare—over $12,000 per person annually—yet achieving dismal results in life expectancy, which lags behind at just 77.5 years compared to peers like Japan at 84.1 years. This inefficiency stems from a fragmented system dominated by profit-driven private insurers, pharmaceutical giants, and hospitals that inflate costs through administrative bloat and skyrocketing prices for drugs and procedures. While other countries leverage universal coverage to emphasize preventive care and equitable access, America's approach often prioritizes reactive treatments for chronic illnesses, leaving millions uninsured or underinsured and exacerbating health disparities. The result is a vicious cycle where high spending fails to translate into better outcomes, as factors like obesity, substance abuse, and violence further erode overall well-being.
Digging deeper, the core issues include overreliance on expensive technologies and specialist interventions without corresponding improvements in population health, coupled with underinvestment in social determinants such as nutrition, education, and community support. Administrative costs alone consume nearly a third of U.S. healthcare dollars due to billing complexities and paperwork, far surpassing streamlined systems in places like Germany or the UK. Meanwhile, pharmaceutical pricing remains unchecked, with Americans paying two to three times more for the same medications available abroad. These structural flaws not only drain resources but also perpetuate inequities, where vulnerable populations face barriers to early detection and management of diseases, leading to higher rates of preventable deaths and shorter lifespans despite the massive financial outlay.
Enter Make America Healthy Again (MAHA), a bold initiative spearheaded by the current administration to overhaul this broken system by targeting root causes of chronic disease and promoting holistic wellness. MAHA aims to shift the paradigm from treating symptoms to preventing illness, emphasizing environmental, nutritional, and lifestyle factors that have fueled epidemics of obesity, diabetes, and mental health issues. By establishing a dedicated commission, the movement seeks to foster accountability in government health agencies, reduce wasteful spending, and empower individuals with tools for healthier living, ultimately striving to extend life expectancy and curb the trillion-dollar healthcare burden.
Key MAHA initiatives include reforming dietary guidelines to prioritize whole foods and combat processed junk through stricter regulations on additives and subsidies for healthy agriculture; aggressively addressing environmental toxins by phasing out harmful chemicals in food, water, and consumer products; expanding access to preventive care via digital health technologies and community programs that encourage physical activity and stress reduction; and restructuring health agencies to eliminate inefficiencies, saving billions while redirecting funds toward nutrition education and chronic disease research. These efforts collectively promise a healthier, more resilient America by tackling the systemic failures head-on.
The glaring hypocrisy in government operations, where agencies like the IRS wield immense power to scrutinize everyday citizens for minor financial oversights, such as failing to report Venmo transactions exceeding $600, while the Department of Defense repeatedly fails audits and loses track of trillions in taxpayer dollars. This duality portrays the government as a bully that demands meticulous accountability from individuals and small businesses—threatening fines, audits, or even legal action for what amounts to pocket change in the grand scheme—yet excuses its own colossal fiscal blunders. The muscular Doge representing the IRS symbolizes aggressive enforcement on the little guy, contrasting sharply with the feeble Doge embodying the Pentagon's incompetence, highlighting how the system prioritizes revenue extraction from the vulnerable over self-regulation in its bloated bureaucracies.
Government inefficiency manifests in countless ways, often wasting resources on a scale that defies logic while failing to deliver basic services effectively. For instance, infrastructure projects like highway repairs or public transit upgrades frequently balloon in cost and time due to layers of red tape, corruption, and poor planning, leaving roads crumbling and commuters frustrated for years longer than necessary. Similarly, entitlement programs such as Social Security or Medicare are riddled with administrative bloat, where billions are spent on outdated systems and paperwork rather than on actual benefits, resulting in delayed payments or erroneous denials that affect millions of retirees and the disabled. These examples underscore a systemic laziness where oversight is minimal, accountability is rare, and the machinery of government grinds slowly, if at all, prioritizing job preservation for bureaucrats over tangible results for the public.
Meanwhile, this same inefficient behemoth turns its gaze on ordinary people, harassing them over trivial matters that pale in comparison to its own failures. Take the case of small business owners audited relentlessly for minor deductions on their taxes, facing hours of paperwork and potential penalties that could bankrupt them, even as federal agencies misplace funds equivalent to entire national economies. Or consider environmental regulations that fine homeowners thousands for unpermitted backyard sheds, while government projects overrun budgets by billions without consequence. This pattern of nitpicking citizens for simple compliance issues—be it unreported gig economy income or jaywalking tickets escalated into court battles—reveals a hypocritical power dynamic, where the government enforces draconian rules on the powerless to mask its own profound waste and disarray, eroding trust and fueling resentment among those it claims to serve.
Just as possessing vast resources means little without the wisdom to deploy them effectively, government spending often falls into the trap of quantity over quality, leading to wasted potential and unfulfilled promises. Consider a nation pouring billions into healthcare systems, funding state-of-the-art hospitals and importing cutting-edge equipment. Yet, if administrators lack the expertise to train staff properly or integrate these tools into efficient workflows, patients endure long waits, misdiagnoses, and underutilized facilities. The result is not improved public health but a bloated budget that burdens taxpayers, illustrating how unchecked spending without strategic oversight turns abundance into inefficiency.
This principle echoes in infrastructure projects, where governments allocate enormous sums to build roads, bridges, and public transit, only to see them crumble due to poor planning and corruption. Imagine a developing country securing loans for a massive highway network intended to boost trade and connectivity. Without skilled engineers to assess terrain or maintenance plans to sustain the roads, potholes form within months, traffic snarls persist, and economic growth stalls. Here, the influx of funds becomes a liability rather than a lever for progress, as the absence of know-how transforms potential prosperity into perpetual repair costs and public disillusionment.
Finally, defense budgets exemplify this mismatch, with governments amassing trillions on advanced weaponry and military hardware, yet failing to achieve security due to misguided strategies. Picture a superpower investing heavily in fighter jets and cyber defenses, but neglecting to foster alliances or train personnel in adaptive tactics. When conflicts arise, these resources sit idle or prove ineffective against asymmetric threats, draining national coffers while leaving vulnerabilities exposed. Ultimately, such scenarios underscore that true fiscal power lies not in the size of the spend but in the savvy application, turning what could be a force for good into a monument of missed opportunities.
