Is China Really Quitting the Dollar? Or Just Playing Financial Hide-and-Seek?
Headlines scream: China dumped 50% of its US Treasuries—proof the dollar's end is near.
But here's what they miss: while China's official holdings crashed, Belgium's spiked by hundreds of billions.
The theory: China isn't selling. They're moving bonds to European hubs—shielding from sanctions while keeping assets safely in the Western system.
Deeper still: Xi demands de-dollarization. The PBoC wants dollar stability. The compromise? A "nominee holding" model. Report clean books. Keep options open.
Meanwhile, an estimated $2 trillion of China's surplus sits in Western assets—off the official books.
Genuine de-dollarization? Or a sophisticated shell game?

Pakistan bombs Kabul after intensifying border clashes with Afghanistan
Pakistan bombed Afghanistan’s capital of Kabul and two other provinces on Friday, hours after a cross-border attack, the latest escalation of deadly violence between the volatile neighbours who signed a Qatar-mediated ceasefire in 2025.
Following months of tit-for-tat clashes, Afghan forces attacked Pakistani border troops on Thursday night in what the Taliban government said was retaliation for earlier deadly airstrikes.

💹 MARKET UPDATE 🇨🇳🇺🇸
China's central bank moved to rein in the fast-rising yuan on Friday, scrapping risk reserves requirements for forex forward contracts in a move that would encourage dollar buying as exporters start to feel the pinch from a stronger currency. The decision came after the yuan hit a near three-year high against the dollar on Thursday. China's currency is up more than 7% on the dollar since last April. The People's Bank of China (PBOC) said it would remove the reserve requirement of 20% on forex forward contracts from March 2, vowing to maintain the yuan's exchange rate at a "reasonable and balanced level." Net forex inflows totaled $79.9 billion in January, the third biggest in history. Beijing Ultrapower Software Co blamed yuan strength for contributing to its 28% plunge in 2025 profit, while Suzhou Junchuang Auto Technoloies said the yuan's strength contributed to its 31% slump in 2025 profit.

🚨🇺🇸 Exposed: Hillary Clinton’s hidden hand in Gaddafi’s fall & Epstein’s payoff
Tucker Carlson, on Megyn Kelly's show, exposed how Hillary Clinton's push for the 2011 NATO intervention in Libya led directly to assassination of Muammar Gaddafi, enabling Jeffrey Epstein to plan profits from the ensuing chaos.
Emails sent by Epstein in July 2011 outlined plans to recover frozen Libyan assets and secure reconstruction contracts through contacts linked to former MI6 and Mossad figures — months before Gaddafi’s death.
🤝 Epstein's advance knowledge & insider ties
▪️Epstein anticipated Libya’s collapse, discussing it before it happened, and had access to high-level foreign policy circles.
▪️Recently released US Department of Justice (DOJ) files confirm that Epstein sent emails about Libya prior to Gaddafi’s assassination, implying links that allowed him to foresee events like the 2008 crisis or Gaddafi's ouster.
🙊 Clinton's direct involvement & bragging
▪️As Secretary of State, Clinton advocated for UN Resolution 1973 authorising NATO strikes amid Libya's civil war.
▪️She later bragged, "We came, we saw, he died," amid accusations of regime change ambitions.
▪️Tucker described her as "killing people" and tied her Epstein friendship to ongoing depositions.
🇱🇾 Libya's descent into trafficking hub
The profit motive becomes even more sinister given the aftermath.
▪️Following Gaddafi’s killing, Libya descended into factional conflict, becoming a major transit hub for human and child trafficking.
▪️A recent UN report detailed the "journey of hell" for migrants, including the rape of girls as young as 14 and domestic slavery.
▪️This horrific reality, Tucker suggests, was foreseeable and profitable for networks like Epstein’s.
😨 Epstein = blackmail tool
▪️Far from acting alone as a mastermind, Carlson portrays Epstein as a “tool” within a wider network, using sexual blackmail to influence leaders and profit from instability.
▪️He also helped arrange a discreet meeting between Clinton and former French president Nicolas Sarkozy during a period when Sarkozy faced scrutiny over Libyan campaign financing.

In 2011, shortly after commissioning and during deployment, USS George H.W. Bush (CVN-77) suffered major outages where all 423 toilets went down at once (multiple times). Sailors reported urinating in showers, sinks, or bottles (dumping over the side), and some female crew held it so long it caused health issues. The narrow pipes and vacuum setup clogged easily, leading to backups and morale hits.
The Navy blamed improper use/flushing, but the design was undersized for heavy warship usage and crew size.
These issues carried over (and got worse) on the Ford-class (starting with USS Gerald R. Ford), which uses an even more complex version of the same vacuum system. Frequent clogs from calcium buildup, improper items (T-shirts, ropes, etc.), and loose valves knock out entire zones, requiring expensive acid flushes (~$400k each) and constant maintenance.

Tone deaf or great idea?
FIFA and the Board of Peace have announced they will build a stadium, football pitches, and FIFA academy in Gaza
Shouldn't they be focused on rebuilding homes?
