 My expectation is that as the new dark age tightens its grip, Trump will be spending more and more of his time fighting the crisis or distraction du jour, whether it be the next financial crisis, pandemic, wildfire, measles outbreak, etc., etc., and any grand plans will fall by the wayside and be forgotten.
The US deficit is over $2 trillion per year in "good times". With any kind of crisis they will print like crazy. Given how hostile
Trump has been even to US allies, it is crazy for any country to hold lots of US treasuries. If other countries sell them and
the US gov needs to sell $9 trillion in the next 12 month (roll over $7 trillion and $2++ trillion new) then the Fed is going to
have to start printing and buying. Once the QE really gets going and clearly can't stop, it is crazy for any country/company/individual to hold 10, 20, or 30 year treasuries. Everyone should sell, the Fed will be printing tens of trillions. The dollar is doomed.

 As far as the location for a dark age hovel, my personal preference is the parts of the country where precipitation averages 25-30 inches per year and population densities are lower than near the dark age hovels previously shown. Population density maps align with precipitation maps for the most part. I could get into a long discussion about water but will just use the words personal preference and leave it at that. I'd rather fight water problems than population problems at this time. Also, there are differences where it's very cold and growing seasons are shorter.

In not too long, this area (Central Texas) will move into the hot, dry season. I want to take advantage of the Spring rains to carry through this season, partly with what these pits absorb and partly with water storage. I am storing some water that I am catching from the roof, but not a lot yet.

With what I have learned over the past year, so far I would rate this area as challenging for survival, but not too challenging. The ground was faster to prep than it would be in colder climates. Once we reach 95 degrees plus for several weeks, I'll report back on how that goes.

 But what I can say is that there seem to be indications, despite the natural tendency of people affected by the weather to complain about it, that growing food has become more difficult. There's been news that that is happening with tomatoes, coffee and cocoa on a worldwide basis now. I'm working hard to make adaptations to that, to become resilient to weather extremes in both temperature and precipitation. My goal in designing these pits was to be able to handle a 4 inch or so 12 hour or so rain without flooding them and to hold that water for the dry periods. Also to be able to carry a heat resistant tomato variety through 95 degree heat and still produce. We should see some tests of that in the next 4 months and I'll talk about it once these extremes are seen.
There was a test of precipitation extremes over about a 16 hour period ending this morning. While there was flooding in the yard, the pits were able to absorb about 3 inches of rain without showing any standing water after the downpour ended. There's no rain in the 10 day forecast so this could be the heaviest downpour this year. Some future years will probably be worse but, now that this test has passed, it seems OK to expand the garden in the same way it has been done so far.

 We have 6 pits being used for tomatoes with a total of 18 plants. Also 12 of the same plants in a different location as an experiment.
It can already be said that the experiment with the 12 plants failed. That was to plant in native, unimproved soil. While the 12 plants look healthy, their growth is lagging way behind and they don't show any signs of being able to yield much.

Treasury Department's daily reports on accounts shows the largest rising costs are direct payments to the military and seniors.
We noted a seven percent increase as the keynesian veil moves forward.
The government's ability to borrow using extraordinary measures will probably be exhausted in August or September.
The rot has not even begun to stop. Managed decline as warned since NATA. Decieved...

The Trump administration appealed. But a federal appeals court backed Xinis’ order for information in a blistering ruling. The case is ongoing.

Meanwhile, President Donald Trump acknowledged to ABC News on Tuesday that he could call El Salvador’s president and have Abrego Garcia sent back.

 It doesn't seem like the environment is anywhere close to peak microplastics (or nanoplastics, which are smaller). Even if plastic production were to be shut down, it seems existing plastic would still be degrading to smaller particles.

He was on with Nate Hagens discussing this awhile back.
World population is thus likely to be far lower than the 10 billion+ currently projected by
2100. 6 or 7 billion seems far more likely, and if this trend continues further, it could be
down to only 2 or 3 billion by 2200.
One thing that is concerning is how pervasive these pollutants are. This is not your great great great great, etc., grandfather's collapse.
