NEWS: Sources tell me that DOGE is setting its sights on the Department of Labor next. DOL workers have been ordered to give DOGE access to whatever they ask for—or risk termination. “We’re supposed to stop everything we’re doing and do whatever the DOGE kids ask… It feels dirty and illegal.”

This makes ZERO sense. Sovereign wealth funds exist to invest a nation’s foreign currency holdings from running trade surpluses. The U.S. has a net negative foreign reserve balance, with U.S. dollars held abroad, as a function of its reserve currency status.

Why? To defend you, our ally, on the invocation of NATO Article 5.
Now America slaps us with a depression-threatening trade war and threats of annexation.
