America faces coordinated threats — communism, Islamism, global governance, and internal betrayal — converging with an unsustainable national debt nearing $40 trillion. Kevin Freeman outlines seven critical truths about debt, from who holds it to why spending cuts, asset sales, or taxing billionaires won’t fix the trajectory. He explains why monetization, unfunded liabilities, and entrenched interests amplify risk, and he proposes managed inflation, productivity growth, deregulation, and sound money as the only viable paths forward. This first installment sets the foundation for the Six Trials by Fire and the urgent need for political will and practical safeguards.
