RT News has reported American economist and public-policy analyst Jeffrey Sachs says the US government has been weaponizing the dollar instead of using it as a medium of exchange or as a store of value. Sachs made these comments via video to a meeting of BRICS. This weaponization of the US dollar has been seen via the seizure of frozen Russian assets. The US government has also frozen Venezuelan, Iranian, and Afghan along with other state funds. Sachs has been quoted as saying “I’ve said to my own government for the last 15 years ‘Stop doing it, this is crazy, it will destroy trust in the dollar.’ You can’t go on with the system like this, it’s not just Russia.” He has also commented that China
would like to have normal trade with the US without threats of sanctions. Sachs says such sanctions are “absolutely incorrect” and they are illegal by the standards of international law and of the UN Charter. Sachs is also president of the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network.>>>RT News
International Business Times reports U.S. District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers has ruled Meta,
the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, can be sued by more than 30 states which have accused these outlets of encouraging teens to get addicted to social media. Judge Rogers has denied motions by Meta Platforms to dismiss the cases. Rogers is allowing the states to press their "theories of liability predicated on a failure-to-warn of known risks of addiction." The social media giant is being accused of designing its products to "exploit the psychology and neurophysiology of kids," which results in compulsive use that causes depression, anxiety, eating disorders, self-harm and suicide. Two lawsuits led by California and Florida are seeking unspecified damages and a court order for Meta to eliminate the features alleged to be dangerous and to warn that its products "are addictive and pose a clear and present danger to unsuspecting minors.">>>IBT
