What is Section 230 which Trumps wants terminated?

Section 230 is a piece of Internet legislation, passed into law as part of the Communications Decency Act (CDA) of 1996 (a common name for Title V of the Telecommunications Act of 1996), formally codified as Section 230 of the Communications Act of 1934 at 47 U.S.C.§ 230.
Targeting fake news and the US presidential elections, Trump and others have attacked Section 230, saying it has given companies too much legal protection, allowing them to escape unscathed.

Zimbabwe introduces a new gold-backed digital currency

Zimbabwe has unveiled a groundbreaking digital currency called 'Zimbabwe Gold' (ZiG), backed by gold in milligrams.
This move is part of the country's de-dollarization strategy and efforts to combat inflation.
The Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe (RBZ) is offering ZiG for both individuals and corporations, providing a stable and versatile means of transacting.
By linking the digital currency to gold, Zimbabwe aims to restore confidence in its monetary system and attract investment, potentially setting an example for other nations facing similar economic challenges.
ZiG represents a significant step towards financial stability and innovation in Zimbabwe.

Satellites transferred to Space Force by October

While the Democrats in Congress are Trying to Abolish the Space Force, The chief of Space Operations announced the transfer of Army and Navy satellite communications billets, funding, and mission responsibility to the U.S. Space Force.
At the beginning of October, some of the satellite communications responsibilities of the US Army and US Navy will officially transfer to the hands of Space Force DoD.
The move puts basically all of the DODs narrowband, wideband, and protected SATCOM under control of the U.S. Space Force.
Now all of that training, operations, acquisition, and sustainment and follow-on activities, user allocations - all of that, will be consolidated under the Space Force to create that unity of effort, and hopefully gain the ability to be more resilient, more dynamic, and ultimately more efficient with that mission set.

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.
