OPM, The Treasury, USAID, WTF?

reviewing some of the actions taken in the last two weeks

Hello everyone!

Thank you so much for following me on here.

Given that America has decided to crash out, I thought we could too. While I work on my next in depth investigative piece for youtube, I thought I would talk about news as it breaks and how it relates to the ideas I am interested in, on here. I’ll write some pieces as well.

For the first little while these will be for all subscribers, but at some point I will pay wall them. Only because I put a lot of work in and it takes me quite a bit of effort! I hope you understand. Leave your questions and comments in below and we can chat about them :)

(apologies for my ummsss and ahhs)
