Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent dismisses questions about how America will pay for a $200 billion war with Iran, claiming "we have plenty of money"—but Peter Schiff exposes the dangerous delusion behind deficit spending and reveals how import/export prices are already screaming inflation that will dwarf anything under Biden.- Sponsored by Function.

Download Grammarly for free at http://grammarly.comPeter Schiff exposes the Trump administration's reckless war financing, revealing Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's shocking dismissal of questions about paying for a $200 billion Iran War appropriation. When pressed on funding sources, Bessent called the question "ridiculous" and claimed America has "plenty of money" despite $39 trillion in debt, ruling out tax increases while offering no spending cuts. Schiff argues this proves the biggest threat to America isn't Iran but Washington's own fiscal irresponsibility, as the war becomes a convenient scapegoat for the massive inflation already baked into the economy from Trump's policies.The episode reveals Trump's market manipulation through contradictory Truth Social posts - issuing ultimatums that crash markets, then announcing "great progress" in negotiations that reverse the moves, with suspicious large trades placed minutes before his reversal posts. Meanwhile, import/export prices exploded 16.8% and 19.6% annualized in February alone, signaling the inflation tsunami coming in 2026. Schiff also delivers major legal updates: his civil rights lawsuit against the IRS conspiracy was dismissed with prejudice, but he won a crucial FOIA battle forcing the government to release hundreds of redacted pages that could expose massive corruption at the highest levels of multiple government agencies.Chapters:00:00 — Cold Open and Intro00:56 — War Funding and Taxes09:12 — Debt Inflation and Sacrifice11:09 — Credibility and Market Moves14:39 — Ultimatums and Market Whiplash18:33 — Gold Silver and Real Rates31:30 — Taco Pattern and War Spin33:44 — Ceasefire Demands and Stalemate35:46 — Oil Fertilizer and Aftermath Risks36:53 — Strategic Stockpiling Surge38:31 — Mortgage Demand Cracks41:20 — Import Export Prices Signal Inflation46:48 — War As Inflation Scapegoat50:03 — Euro Pacific Bank Legal Fight52:28 — Civil Rights Case Dismissed59:29 — FOIA Lawsuit Breakthrough1:01:17 — Redactions Reveal Conspiracy1:06:56 — Courts And Government Accountability1:15:43 — Gold Silver Final Pitch#GoldInvesting #IranWar #InflationCrisisOur Sponsors:* Check out Chilipad and use my code GOLD for a great deal: https://sleep.me* Check out Fast Growing Trees and use my code GOLD for a great deal: https://www.fast-growing-trees.com* Check out Plaud AI and use my code GOLD for a great deal: https://plaud.ai* Check out Quince and use my code quince.com/gold for a great deal: https://www.quince.com* Check out Quince and use my code quince.com/gold for a great deal: https://www.quince.com* Check out TruDiagnostic and use my code GOLD20 for a great deal: https://www.trudiagnostic.comPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
