Global Tensions Are Rising: What Poland, Taiwan, and Gold Are Telling Us
Poland Scrambles Jets as 728 Drones Hit Ukraine Overnight
Tensions are escalating fast and we’re starting to see just how deep the global military and financial instability runs.
Poland scrambled F-16s this week after what may have been one of the largest drone strikes of the war so far. 728 drones and several ballistic and hypersonic missiles were launched overnight into Ukrainian territory. And this is no small story it’s why Poland activated its entire operational command.
“All available forces and resources… have been activated,” Polish military command stated. Fighter jets were launched, air defenses were on full alert, and Allied aviation joined the patrols.
Why the sudden escalation? Many believe it was in direct response to Donald Trump’s recent pledge to send more defensive weapons to Kyiv coupled with unusually sharp criticism of Putin. But it’s more than just a one-off response.
“Russia is winning… They’re taking more ground. So of course, Putin isn’t rushing into peace talks. He’s stalling because they’re gaining the upper hand.”
Ukraine’s Defenses Are Buckling Under Hypersonic Pressure
Ukrainian forces managed to shoot down most of the drones. But when it came to the six hypersonic missiles launched by Russia? That’s where the damage was done.
“It’s the ballistic missiles they can’t intercept… again.”
And this is the quiet part no one wants to say out loud: Ukraine’s air defenses are being pushed to their limits. The West is growing hesitant, and the support isn’t coming fast enough. Meanwhile, Russia is showing no signs of letting up.
“We’re seeing the same tactics from The Art of War… a long game. Russia is playing it masterfully.”
Taiwan Begins Its Largest War Games in History
While eyes are on Europe, Taiwan is preparing for what many believe will come in 2027: a Chinese takeover attempt.
“They’ve launched their largest ever military drills testing how to decentralize command during a crippling cyberattack.”
China sees Taiwan as part of its territory. The West sees Taiwan as a strategic stronghold, especially when it comes to semiconductors. But if the U.S. moves most chip manufacturing back home, will it still defend Taiwan at all costs?
“When you’ve moved the semiconductor manufacturing to U.S. soil… do you really think they’ll defend Taiwan the same way?”
The Patriot Missile Problem No One’s Talking About
Let’s talk about something deeply concerning: the U.S. only has 25% of the Patriot missile interceptors needed for Pentagon military planning.
“That’s a 75% shortfall. It’s pretty serious.”
The shortage was made worse after defending Israel and responding to missile threats in the Middle East. Over 30 Patriot missiles were used to intercept Iranian ballistic attacks alone. The Pentagon has warned that this stockpile issue could affect military readiness.
“Each Patriot missile costs $4 million. Just think about that. These are insane figures.”
Tether Now Holds $8 Billion in Secret Swiss Gold
Here's where it gets even more interesting and financial: Tether, a crypto company, now holds 80 tons of gold valued at $8 billion, secretly stored in a Swiss vault.
“This makes them one of the largest gold holders in the world outside of central banks and nation states.”
You might ask—why are crypto companies buying gold? Because the smart money sees what’s coming.
“We are in the final stages of the fiat currency system. It’s just a matter of how long that stage takes.”
Gold is up double digits this year. The World Gold Council just reported the largest gold ETF inflows in five years. Governments, banks, and private companies is loading up.
And don’t forget silver.
“We haven’t seen the big move from silver yet… it’s lagging behind. But it’s coming.”
Final Thoughts: This Is the Reset in Real Time
Everything we predicted back in 2020 is now playing out:
Global conflict in Europe, the Middle East, and Asia
Currency devaluation
Shifts toward hard assets like gold and silver
Proxy wars, cyber threats, and energy disruption
And it’s not over.
“We’re not at the peak yet, but when you start seeing gold headlines 24/7… that’s when retail money starts pouring in. That’s your warning signal.”
If you want to protect your wealth, you must be ahead of the crowd—not running in after it’s too late.
“This is a period of extreme volatility. You need your own individualized financial strategy. Tailored to you and your family.”

Trump Responds: "No Exceptions"
On social media, Trump recently made it crystal clear:
“Any countries aligning themselves with the anti-American policies of BRICS will be charged an additional 10% tariff. There will be no exceptions to this policy.”
This isn’t just rhetoric. It’s a warning shot.
And while BRICS might not label itself as anti-American, its agenda is clearly anti-Western. The expanded alliance now beyond Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa—openly talks about a new world order, led by emerging economies and freed from the U.S. dollar’s dominance.
The EU is playing both sides. They’re keeping one foot in the Western alliance, but quietly pivoting their economic base toward the Global South and the East. Just last week, they started executing trade frameworks using the digital euro, which hasn’t even officially launched yet. That alone should raise eyebrows.
The Real Threat: De-Dollarization
If you watched Friday’s video (which surprisingly underperformed), you’d have seen the data yourself. The U.S. dollar is losing ground fast.
Some Americans may not want to hear it, but this isn’t anti-American propaganda. It’s cold, hard data:
Jobs numbers are being manipulated
Trade dominance is slipping
Other nations are preparing backup systems outside U.S. control
And this week, the fallout just accelerated.
Deadlines, Tariffs & Desperation
The U.S. set a July 9 deadline to finalize key trade deals before enforcing sweeping new tariffs starting August 1. But so far, only the UK, Vietnam, and parts of China have come to the table.
The EU, meanwhile, is scrambling to negotiate reduced tariffs on cars, steel, and aluminum. Yet no full agreement is in sight. A 25% tariff on Japan and Korea was announced just minutes before I went live on stream. For South Korea, which relies heavily on exports to the U.S., this is a major blow.
And Japan could face up to 35% tariffs if negotiations collapse.
A Fractured Global Economy
We’re watching a global realignment in real-time. These aren’t just policy squabbles—they’re tectonic shifts in the way the world does trade, creates money, and balances power.
While the U.S. clings to its dominance, nations like Germany, France, China, and India are all hedging their bets diversifying away from U.S. influence.
As I said:
“This isn’t anti-American. It’s anti-West. And the West still doesn’t realize how fast the rest of the world is moving.”
Final Thoughts: Time to Get Prepared
If you’re still thinking the old system will sort itself out, think again. This is a new game, with new rules. The trade war is escalating. Currency dominance is shifting. And the real losers will be the middle class, caught between inflation, job instability, and shrinking purchasing power.
