Mike Stegal, 28 August 2026



Mike examines how China became the world’s leading manufacturing power—and why its industrial strength now masks a growing economic crisis. After decades of directed credit, infrastructure development, and export-driven growth, China faces a collapsing property market, overwhelming debt, shrinking domestic demand, and an aging population. From Japan’s lost decades and the collapse of Evergrande to China’s industrial overproduction and dependence on foreign markets, Mike explains why this crisis is unlike anything faced by the other Asian Tigers. Despite its advanced factories, infrastructure, robotics, and space program, China never developed a strong internal consumer economy capable of supporting its enormous productive system. Mike then examines the deeper difference between China’s state-controlled economic model and the true American System of Alexander Hamilton and Abraham Lincoln—a system designed to develop productive citizens, industries, infrastructure, and scientific progress. With President Trump back in office, the United States is beginning a new economic mobilization through federal credit, private investment, nuclear energy, semiconductor manufacturing, physical AI, critical minerals, and space exploration. This American industrial revival could replace the failed system of globalization and provide a new model of development for the world.

Being Truthful, at Last

… He pointed to the videotaped deposition of longtime vaccine developer Dr. Stanley Plotkin, who was questioned under oath about research involving 76 aborted, normally developing fetuses — all three months gestation or older — in a single study.

Kennedy also highlighted that the rubella virus used in M-M-R II is grown using WI-38 human diploid lung fibroblasts, a cell line originally derived from the lung tissue of an aborted three-month-old female fetus.

During Plotkin’s deposition, attorney Aaron Siri asked whether M-M-R II contains approximately 150 nanograms of cell-substrate DNA per dose, fragmented to roughly 215 base pairs.

Plotkin answered: “Yeah, that’s probably correct, yes.”

Kennedy says this amounts to approximately 646 billion fragments of human DNA from an aborted fetal cell line in each vial of M-M-R II, in addition to an unspecified amount of human cellular debris.

Shapiro also accused Kennedy of spreading vaccine misinformation. Kennedy said that when he asked the governor to identify an example, Shapiro could not provide one.

For decades, legitimate questions about vaccines have too often been dismissed as “misinformation” rather than answered with evidence.

As Kennedy put it, restoring public trust requires “being truthful, at last, with the public.”

Parents deserve nothing less.

Grok— Al Shakarchi, born in Baghdad in 1963 and nicknamed "Iron Woman," received the 2022 International Women of Courage Award from the Biden administration for anti-corruption work but now faces US accusations of enabling terrorist financing via Iraq's financial system. She is an Iraqi national who served as finance minister until 2026, denies the watchlist claim, and states she remains in Iraq amid local corruption investigations.

Secretary Bessent Responds to Senator Warren

… market literacy to spot her remedial error.

To reiterate: under @POTUS , the United States delivers for America’s trusted partners.

For a fuller explanation, I recommend Senator Warren take any entry level course in international finance for her and her staff, or I can personally give her a tutorial on Foreign Exchange for Dummies. Although I am not holding my breath, I hope her next letter will demonstrate that she has learned the difference between a currency purchase and a swap or a loan.
