Welcome Back to The Realignment
We’re three days into our special coverage of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
First off, I’m blown away by how well these episodes have done. Collectively, they’re the best ever performing content we’ve ever posted.
Secondly, since we’re going so deep on this topic, I’d like as many audience comments/responses as possible. Reply to the email or comment below.
It’s honestly a privilege that my job’s to ask questions of interesting people to help make the world make sense. I’m trying to come up with something profound to say, but an episode every single day plus covering the State of the Union for Breaking Points on Tuesday has me wrecked.
Tune in next Thursday for a deeper post.
Also, if you have any questions for our episodes next week or any topics you’d like me to cover in the daily episodes, reply below or email realignmentpod@gmail.com

I understand it may be out of your areas of expertise, but I recommend an in depth exploration of the geo-economic ramifications.
There is an emergence of separated trading blocks, an unprecedented weaponization of the financial system, a precipitation of the end of the USD reserve standard, a brewing crisis in both energy and food, a possible global financial crisis, assured currency devaluations, and the fact that the world was already tipping over into recession and this will make it more of a headlong plunge.
You guys are great, but I imagine your young, thoughtful, well intentioned audience is not prepared financially for what is coming. I’m concerned about them. The above all point to global ramifications. There is a growing awareness that this has set off something much bigger than Russia and Ukraine. Not just politically, but economically and financially.
How bad is the corruption inside the Deep State/military-industrial-complex? What is the role of "wokeism" in that corruption?
