This makes no sense under fiat monetary sovereignty. The government never makes a “profit” or a “loss” in any meaningful way (in its own currency).
It would be closer to the truth to see it as the government 1) never having any money at all, and 2) having the power to distribute to others arbitrarily large amounts of money and 3) having the power to destroy arbitrarily large amounts of that distributed money through taxation.

I think the Wikipedia page shows what they are just fine. They’re the Global North’s strategy think tank for subjugating the Global South. I wouldn’t call them CIA cut-outs. It’s worse than that: these are the people the CIA does its dirty work for.
Remember last year when they tried to start a Ministry of Truth, but it was a little too on the nose in the court of public opinion, so they had to shut it down? Presumably they’ll try to be a bit more subtle going forward.
I think they mean what everyone means by it.
It was a joke. In the words of Comrade Kamala Harris, People fall out of coconut trees, but they do not fall as they please; they do not fall under self-selected circumstances, but under circumstances existing already, given and transmitted from the past.
