The US debt crisis is set to get even worse:
Federal spending on elderly programs is up to a record 9.4% of GDP.
This is up +56% from the 6.0% level seen in the late 1980s, according to the CBO.
This is also projected to increase to a record 11.3% of GDP over the next 10 years, driven by healthcare inflation, aging demographics, and lengthening life spans.
Life expectancy at age 65 already hit a record of 19.7 years in 2024, meaning retirees are drawing benefits longer than ever before.
Combined with interest payments, elderly programs are now the primary driver of the federal budget deficit.
As a result, by 2032, Social Security will no longer be able to pay full benefits without reform.
The cost of an aging America is becoming unsustainable.

El Mencho’s death reveals the crypto money behind Mexico’s most violent cartel
Here’s what’s happening:
- The Military Operation
On February 22, 2026, Mexican armed forces located Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes in Tapalpa, Jalisco.
Army units were met with gunfire.
They responded.
Seven CJNG members were killed.
Three were severely wounded and later died during air transfer.
One of them was “El Mencho.”
The Mexican government confirmed his death.
He was one of the most wanted men in the world, with a $15M US reward on his head.
- Immediate Cartel Response
Within hours, coordinated violence erupted.
Vehicles burned on highways.
Roadblocks across Jalisco and nearby states.
Incidents reported in Nayarit, Guanajuato, Michoacán and Tamaulipas.
The CJNG reacted fast to show strength.
- The Crypto Money
For years, CJNG did not only rely on cash smuggling.
US investigations linked the cartel to crypto laundering operations worth tens of millions.
In 2022, authorities traced around $40M in crypto transactions tied to CJNG activity.
Cash generated from drug sales in the United States was converted into digital assets.
Stablecoins like USDT were preferred.
Dollars turned into tokens.
Tokens moved across wallets in seconds.
- The China Connection
Cash was collected in US cities.
Middlemen handled pickups.
Funds were converted through exchange accounts and peer-to-peer networks.
Crypto was then transferred to suppliers in China.
Those payments were used to buy chemical precursors for fentanyl production.
- Exchange Exposure
US authorities connected cartel-linked funds to accounts on major crypto platforms.
Some accounts were frozen.
Investigations expanded.
Crypto became part of the financial structure supporting the cartel’s operations.
- What Changes Now
Mencho is dead.
But the digital network he used does not disappear.
Wallet structures remain.
Stablecoins remain.
Payment routes remain.
There is no evidence crypto created the cartel.
But it became a tool inside its financial system.

Well, against the backdrop of what's happening, the National Port Administration of Manzanillo (Colima state) announces that port operations have been temporarily suspended following CJNG attacks on private and government institutions.
We can expect significant clashes here - not just with law enforcement. There's a high likelihood that the port, as one of the key logistical hubs in the drug trade, will be attempted to retake.
