ESSAY

Europe is making financial privacy a crime, one door at a time.

Cash payments over €10,000 are now banned.
Starting in 2027, regulated crypto platforms will have to staple your ID to your Bitcoin transactions.
Gold, for now, you can still buy quietly.
Cash, the original peer-to-peer money, capped.
Bitcoin bought through an exchange, tagged to your passport.
The state isn’t outlawing these tools. Its making sure it always knows exactly who is holding them and where the money went.
Here is the part the rule can’t reach. The mandate lives at the regulated platform, the company that already custodies your coins for you. It stops at the edge of self-custody. They can demand ID at the exchange door.
They can’t put a customer ID form on a private key, because there is no company on the other side to serve the order to.
Same week, America is floating zero capital gains on Bitcoin while Europe criminalizes spending it privately. Countries are now competing for your savings on how little they surveil them.
Move your coins to a wallet you control while the door is still open.

EDUCATION

Senator Patty Murray
Trump wants to put RFK Jr., the guy who said “autism destroys families” in charge of special education for K-12 students with disabilities—absolutely NOT.

HEALTH

NYT: A major flu outbreak has sickened nearly 160 troops at Lackland Air Force Base in Texas weeks after Defense Secretary Hegseth announced that U.S. troops would no longer be required to be vaccinated for the flu, defense officials said.
The Flu killed more U.S Soldiers in WWI than combat did. It devastated our troops & spread throughout the battlegrounds like the plague. The flu vaccine saved our troops from the same deadly catastrophe during WWII. Pete Hegseth & the anti-vaxxers are morons.

SOCIAL SECURITY

No one making over $182K pays another penny into Social Security for the rest of the year!
That’s why it’s running dry.
It’s income inequality, not the program itself.
Corrupt Republicans created that loophole & now they want to cut your benefits.
Mike Johnson #HandsOffSocialSecurity

Harry Truman 1952

1952 Justice Earl Warren

They NEED you to believe socialism
is the source of all evil.

Because the day everyone gets military-like benefits, who is still going to sign up for the military?
And that is bad news for the defense lobbyists.

And universal healthcare is bad news for healthcare insurance lobbyists.

And universal university is bad news for student debt lobbyists.

And universal childcare is bad news for the ones who want women pregnant in the kitchen instead of competing with them in the job market.

JUSTICE WARREN BURGER

Trump staffing cuts left Social Security at near 50‑year lows, with closed offices & endless waits.
Republicans underfund the agency, then call it “dysfunctional” to justify more cuts.
That’s sabotage.
Fund SSA & protect every earned benefit. #HandsOffSocialSecurity #USDemocracy

ECP NetHappenings Happy Juneteenth

Happy #Juneteenth!!!

A word from Opal Lee, ‘Grandmother of Juneteenth,’ who led the way to make the day a federally recognized holiday.
#Juneteenth #OpalLee
WE CELEBRATE 160 YEARS OF FREEDOM FOR THE ENSLAVED HUMAN BEINGS
• WHO WEREN’T EVEN – CONSIDERED PEOPLE – WHEN THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE WAS SIGNED.”
– OPAL LEE “Grandmother of Juneteenth’

On this day in 1865, after white Southerners had extended the enslavement of countless Black people by concealing the Civil War’s end for months, Union troops arrived in Texas. #Juneteenth

#OnThisDay in 1865, General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, TX to read Order No. 3, which affirmed the end of slavery in the states of the former Confederacy. This momentous occasion became known as #Juneteenth, a combination of “June” & “19th.”

#OTD In 1865, Union troops arrived in Galveston, Texas, with news that should have come two and a half years earlier: all enslaved people were free. #Juneteenth is a celebration of freedom and a reminder that freedom delayed is justice denied.

For #Juneteenth: 70+ years after the Civil War, the WPA’s Federal Writers’ Project began interviewing elderly Americans who remembered being enslaved. These moving narratives & photos are now held here at the Library.

On June 19, 1865, Union General Gordon Granger delivered an order to finally enforce the Emancipation Proclamation, freeing 250,000 enslaved Black Texans. Today, we celebrate that freedom and recommit to today’s fight for justice and equality. Happy #Juneteenth!

Prince always reminded us that human rights and creative independence walk hand-in-hand. From fighting for systemic justice to reclaiming his own masters, his life was a masterclass in emancipation. Today, we celebrate the power of breaking chains, both in society and in art. Let freedom ring in the music and in our hearts. 💜

Today, we are recognizing the 161st anniversary of #Juneteenth.
On June 19, 1865, the last African Americans who had been held in slavery in Galveston, Texas learned of their long-withheld freedom—two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation.

Governor Josh Shapiro @GovernorShapiro
No matter how hard Donald Trump fights in a court of law to whitewash our history, he will never change our values in Pennsylvania.
We are the birthplace of American democracy. We will continue to learn from our full history, even when it’s painful, to build a better future for all of us.

It’s about who gets to write the history.

@PhillyInquirer
Slavery exhibits at President’s House can be replaced by Trump administration, Third Circuit rules

The Justice Department has acknowledged removing hundreds of January 6 prosecution records from its website, describing them as “partisan propaganda.”
Critics say the records documented real criminal cases, convictions, and guilty pleas stemming from the Capitol attack.
The fight over January 6 is no longer just about what happened.

ECP NetHappenings The Deal’s off again

@HormuzLetter
BREAKING: Iran has suspended its entire 60-day negotiation period with the US over the direct violation of the MOU’s first clause, with Israeli attacks on southern Lebanon constituting a breach less than 24 hours after the MOU was electronically signed, per Fars and Al-Mayadeen.
Iran’s negotiating delegation had already been preparing to depart for Switzerland to launch the first round of talks before Iran made the decision to suspend the entire trip.
Iran will also not unilaterally fulfill its commitments, and until Iran is fully assured Israeli attacks on Lebanon have stopped and the US has practically adhered to the first-clause obligations, talks remain cancelled.

@ChrisMasterjohn
The end of the Iran War and Trump becoming critical of Israel right at the SpaceX IPO and the rise of the new Warsh Fed monetary policy is the most insane collision of seemingly unrelated events that I could possibly have imagined as a complete validation of Simon Dixon’s theories.

Simon Dixon @SimonDixonTwitt
The managed divorce between Israel & the US that everyone told me could never happen is now underway.
Plausible deniability for the MIC.
Netanyahu is the next regime-change operation.
Looks like the FIC has given the green light.

ESSAY Simon Dixon @SimonDixonTwitt

The symbolism of the memorandum of understanding being signed at the Palace of Versailles is extraordinary.

Versailles represents the fall of monarchy, the rise of revolution, Napoleon’s empire, and later the Treaty of Versailles, the settlement that laid the foundations for the economic and political instability that eventually culminated in World War II.

There has always been a struggle between monetary sovereignty and transnational financial power.

I view Napoleon as part of that story. In my view, the sale of Louisiana to the US reflected a preference for raising capital through state assets rather than becoming dependent upon the powerful banking interests that were emerging across Europe, including the Rothschild banking dynasty.

Likewise, I see the post-Versailles order as creating an unsustainable debt-based system.

The reparations regime eventually led to the creation of the Bank for International Settlements, while the economic pressures imposed on Germany contributed to the conditions that enabled the rise of National Socialism in Germany.

Louis Nathaniel de Rothschild was arrested by the Nazis following the Anschluss.

My interpretation is that this reflected a broader conflict between the Nazi state’s vision of monetary sovereignty and established international financial interests.

I view Hitler’s economic program as an attempt to replace dependence on international finance with a non-usuary labor backed currency, and alternative monetary policy.

While history rightly judges National Socialism by its catastrophic crimes, I believe its economic model cannot be understood without examining its monetary policies alongside its political ideology.

My analysis of Iran follows a similar lens.

The Iranian Revolution rejected integration into the Western financial-industrial complex.

Yet in doing so, Iran became embedded within a regional security architecture that strengthened the military-industrial complex and decades of perpetual conflict.

What makes this moment different is that it may represent a transition from MIC confrontation toward FIC reintegration.

Not a return to the old Western-led order, but integration into a multipolar system increasingly shaped by China, BRICS, regional trade corridors, and alternative settlement networks.

The irony of signing this memorandum at Versailles is hard to miss.

A palace associated with revolution, empire, war, debt, monetary power, and the remaking of world orders becomes the backdrop for another shift in the balance between military power and financial power.

Macron also worked for Rothschild !

ECP NetHappenings A new shot literally regrows knee cartilage

NEW INJECTION REGROWS KNEE CARTILAGE AND STOPS ARTHRITIS

A new shot literally regrows knee cartilage.

Researchers at Stanford Medicine have identified a novel strategy to regenerate articular cartilage in knees and potentially prevent or treat osteoarthritis (OA).

The method targets 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase (15-PGDH), an age-related enzyme—or “gerozyme”—that accumulates in aging tissues and drives degeneration.

In aged mice, small-molecule inhibitors of 15-PGDH, delivered systemically or via intra-articular injection, promoted cartilage thickening and regeneration of functional hyaline articular cartilage.

This occurred without recruiting stem or progenitor cells; instead, existing chondrocytes underwent transcriptional reprogramming to a youthful state, with reduced populations of inflammatory and hypertrophic/degradative cells and expanded matrix-producing articular chondrocytes.

The inhibitors also reversed natural age-related cartilage thinning, improved joint function, and—when administered after simulated ACL injuries—strongly mitigated post-traumatic OA progression and associated pain.

Human OA cartilage explants from total knee replacements responded similarly in vitro, showing decreased degradation markers and evidence of new articular cartilage formation.

Given that an oral 15-PGDH inhibitor has already completed Phase 1 safety trials for age-related muscle atrophy, the findings open a path toward disease-modifying, regenerative therapies that could delay or obviate the need for joint replacement surgery.

[Agarwal, P., Su, S., Ancel, S., et al. (2025). Inhibition of 15-hydroxy prostaglandin dehydrogenase promotes cartilage regeneration. Science. DOI: 10.1126/science.adx6649]
