Stick with economics as that is going to have the most impact on viewers in the coming months. Your latest about the 40% prediction of a recession gets my attention and should get the attention of every American and European associated with the U.S.

I read and watch a lot of news articles about everything I can find in order to protect myself and my family members. Your insights have proven to be very good for helping myself and, I am sure, many others to try and manage the coming decline of the U.S. empire. I have even referenced some of your posts on my own podcast occasionally.

Keep up the good work.

I concur with another commenter as I voted for economics. You strike a good balance, but I still think econ is your sweet spot, and having that nuanced, mannered, nonpartisan approach is what is needed: there are far too many sensationalists and scammers out there. I've followed you for so long because you are clearly not like so many other channels out there.

If I may provide a little exhortation and my two cents - moving forward, Lena, remember most people are scared, bitter and envious, have no real rationale, are very confused, and lack a solid frame of reference. So, even if you provide neutral and fair criticism, people from all sides are going to get angry and turn on you. People don't want to acknowledge the problems and continue to suspend disbelief, but in order for there to be a resolution the problems need to be acknowledged first.

Most are not very faithful. I've had to learn this myself time and time again. But this too shall pass.

Ecclesiastes 9:16 KJB Then said I, Wisdom is better than strength: nevertheless the poor man's wisdom is despised, and his words are not heard. [17] The words of wise men are heard in quiet more than the cry of him that ruleth among fools.

James 3:1 My brethren, be not many masters, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation. [2] For in many things we offend all. If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man, and able also to bridle the whole body.

Proverbs 16:8 Better is a little with righteousness than great revenues without right.

Thanks again, and will keep praying for you as I always do 🙏🎁📫

Nice relevant post. I agree, this too shall pass, perhaps sooner than what most people think.

I voted for economics because, one way or the other, economics affects geopolitics a lot more than is often apparent. Whichever you do, Lena, you always do well. I am always amazed how much you can pack into 8-10 minutes. As someone who generally prefers to read his news, this is an excellent format. Too many get longwinded and cover less than you do in a full 30 minutes.

Seems like things are definitely moving faster, and most of it is bad. Thanks for the heads up. Very useful info as always.
