President Trump signed the deep-sea mining order to fast-track U.S. access to offshore critical minerals, like gold, cobalt, nickel, and rare earths, marking a major push for resource independence and national security.
The order directs agencies to streamline permits, boost deep-sea exploration, and build global partnerships to counter China’s seabed dominance. With vast untapped mineral wealth in U.S. waters, the move aims to secure supply chains vital for defense, energy, and industry.

The White House has announced plans to fast-track permits for ten mining projects across the United States, supporting President Donald Trump's initiative to boost domestic production of critical minerals.
On March 20, 2025, President Donald J. Trump signed an executive order titled "Immediate Measures to Increase American Mineral Production" to enhance U.S. mineral production, including critical minerals like gold, copper, and uranium.
The order aims to reduce reliance on foreign minerals, boost national and economic security, and expedite permitting and land use for mining projects.
It aligns with a global shift toward domestic sourcing by prioritizing mineral production on federal lands and accelerating private and public investment in the mineral supply chain.

Stephen Miller: DOGE Dividends to Be Settled in Congress
February 20, 2025:Stephen Miller, White House Deputy Chief of Staff, on DOGE dividend checks:
"It's all going to be worked on through the reconciliation process with Congress."
February 19, 2025:
President Donald Trump speaks at FII Institute's Priority Summit in Miami:
"There's even under consideration a new concept where we give 20% of the DOGE savings to American citizens".
Elon Musk is reportedly considering a bold plan to distribute $5,000 checks to every American, funded by savings generated through the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
Dubbed the 'DOGE dividend,' the initiative aims to return value to taxpayers following significant budget cuts and reforms.
The proposal suggests that taxpayers have long felt their hard-earned money was misused by previous administrations. By compensating them directly, the plan seeks to boost tax morale and restore confidence that their contributions are being used effectively.
Musk's idea draws inspiration from past government stimulus efforts, such as the checks issued under the Trump administration, which provided crucial support to millions.
If implemented, the DOGE dividend could mark a new chapter in government accountability and efficiency, reflecting Musk's vision of streamlining operations while ensuring citizens benefit directly from fiscal improvements.
Details on how the plan would be funded and executed are still emerging, but the proposal has already sparked widespread discussion about the role of government spending and taxpayer value.

An Asian Bretton Woods is suggested
An Asian Bretton Woods may be on the way.Sergei Glazyev, a senior Russian economist and Minister in charge of the Eurasian Economic Commission (EAEU), was leading a committee planning a new trade currency for the Eurasian Economic Union.
At the same time, the new trade settlement currency was to be available to any other nation in the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation and the expanding BRICS membership.
Logic suggests that a gold-backed currency will be the outcome of Glazyev's EAEU committee's trade currency deliberations after all, because of a subsequent announcement from Moscow concerning a new Russian bullion market.
