Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1189
What We Discuss with Edward Fishman:
Invisible choke points give US asymmetric power. The dollar dominates 90% of global foreign exchange, enabling sanctions on countries with no US involvement, like blocking China-Iran oil payments.Economic warfare threshold lowered, impact increased. Unlike naval blockades requiring military force, cutting countries from dollars/semiconductors imposes "just as much economic harm" with less risk.China...1188: Debt Collection | Skeptical Sunday

What We Discuss with Jefferson Fisher:
Use time to regulate emotions in conflict. Take a breath before responding and slow down your speech.

Global depopulation is coming.
