=== Surviving Invisible Warfare (14:54) ===

[00:00:02]  Hello everyone, this is Dark Journalist.
[00:00:04]  Today our conversation continues with former Assistant HUD Secretary Dylan Reed Partner and the publisher of the Solari Report, Catherine Austin Fitz.
[00:00:13]  Today Catherine will go deep on strategies for surviving invisible warfare waged with entrainment, mind control, central bank digital currency, and mass surveillance.
[00:00:24]  Please join us now.
[00:00:38]  One quick thing in all that I want to ask you about because you've pointed it out, which is there's a kind of a corridor between the official version and, say, the alternative research field looking at these things.
[00:00:52]  And that corridor seems to be a kind of subsidized, you know, $200 million Rogan show or something where they're able to include like the mass formation psychosis and they'll dump in the mold.
[00:01:05]  So, is it modified hangouts?
[00:01:07]  Yes, modified hangouts.
[00:01:10]  That seems to be on the rise, and it's a dramatic kind of asterisk.
[00:01:13]  I've never seen as much money pouring into the modified Hangout Teams as I've seen in the last year.
[00:01:17]  It's extraordinary.
[00:01:19]  Incredible.
[00:01:20]  It's really extraordinary.
[00:01:22]  And they're big operations.
[00:01:24]  And if you look at the copywriting, you know, I'd love to meet the copywriters because they're good.
[00:01:30]  And what's funny is if you look at, you know, there's one where literally within 24 to 48 hours, there's a group of people that I read and really remind.
[00:01:41]  Admire and sort of my go to people, particularly in science.
[00:01:45]  Whenever they come out or say something, bam, those copywriters have it in 24 to 48 hours and they're feeding it back in various forms.
[00:01:52]  They're good.
[00:01:53]  I'd love to meet those guys.
[00:01:54]  They're good.
[00:01:55]  They're really, really good.
[00:01:56]  Yes.
[00:01:57]  Yeah.
[00:01:58]  It's quite a team.
[00:02:00]  But it's funny because there's this core brain power that both sides are drawing from.
[00:02:07]  Right.
[00:02:08]  And I used to do this during the litigation because I would publish all the documentation.
[00:02:13]  What they didn't realize was.
[00:02:15]  By them using my documentation, I could tell what they were up to.
[00:02:20]  So it was a great source of intelligence for me.
[00:02:22]  But I would constantly publish something and it was like a pendulum.
[00:02:26]  They're over here, I'm over here, and I just keep publishing and they just keep moving, modified, hanging their way here.
[00:02:35]  And if you don't mind spending 11 years getting them over, you know.
[00:02:40]  So you have a lot of experience at this.
[00:02:42]  This is why I think you can see it larger as a media trend.
[00:02:46]  I even see it with Musk to a certain degree when Musk is like, you know, we need more free speech and all that.
[00:02:52]  And then all the conservatives are like, yeah.
[00:02:54]  You know, Tucker Carlson is like, Musk is our guy.
[00:02:57]  And I think to myself, God, you brought in really fast on this.
[00:03:01]  Like, it's pretty easy for him just to say a couple of things.
[00:03:03]  Come on.
[00:03:05]  I don't know.
[00:03:06]  You know, he's making the smart grid fashionable.
[00:03:08]  I don't, there's so, if you look at my time, you know, there's so many great people and I want to listen to their stuff and I want to learn from them.
[00:03:19]  And I don't have any more time for the modified hangout of the disinformation.
[00:03:24]  You know, if one more person asked me to watch a presentation on the quantum financial system, it's like, no, I don't have.
[00:03:33]  And they said, well, can you explain to me why it's not legitimate?
[00:03:37]  I said, no, I'm not going to spend two hours unpacking this and giving it to you so you can give it to those guys and then they can embroil me in the spider's nest of, you know, you know what I mean?
[00:03:50]  I don't have time.
[00:03:52]  Because what I need to do, I'm trying to find the best actionable intelligence in the world and get it to you.
[00:04:00]  And that is a full time job.
[00:04:01]  I don't have time.
[00:04:03]  You know, it's one of my favorite preachers says, My elevator only goes to the first floor.
[00:04:09]  He says, You're going to the basement.
[00:04:10]  You have to get off and take the stairs.
[00:04:12]  That's great.
[00:04:18]  And I think it's interesting, too, because you have to choose your battles wisely when you're dealing with these things.
[00:04:25]  Well, you know, here's the thing.
[00:04:27]  I learned, I made a command decision in 2014.
[00:04:32]  I had hoped that I could go back into the investment world and go back to cooperating with the establishment, not in a close way, but in a, you know, not be hostile.
[00:04:46]  And I was hopeful we could go back to sort of playing tit for tat.
[00:04:50]  And it turned out I was wrong.
[00:04:52]  So, you know, there was deep, still, you know, I don't want to engage in conjecture, but I think.
[00:05:05]  I think it was very painful for a lot of people to what had to come out for me to win.
[00:05:11]  So, so I don't think they, you know, I don't think that that pain is gone until they all just leave the planet.
[00:05:19]  So, so I realized, okay, I can't, I can't cooperate, but I'm going to keep, you know, I'm going to keep doing this layer report and I'm just going to tell the truth.
[00:05:29]  And I just kept running into headwinds where people said, oh, you can't talk about, Geoengineering, because then you won't be credible and you can't talk about, you know, pedophilia.
[00:05:40]  You won't be credible.
[00:05:42]  You can't talk, you know.
[00:05:42]  So I get, I constantly get all these things.
[00:05:45]  And the big one, of course, is you can't talk about UFOs.
[00:05:48]  Because the financial guys will not let you talk about UFOs or black budget or any of that.
[00:05:53]  And I just said, look, I'm just looking for the truth.
[00:05:56]  I'm just looking for the truth.
[00:05:58]  So I'm going to look at everything that has an impact on the GDP.
[00:06:02]  If it has an impact on the GDP, I'm going to look at it.
[00:06:05]  And I'm going to talk about it and I'm going to integrate it.
[00:06:08]  And if you don't, then you're not looking for an economically sustainable model.
[00:06:14]  And at the end of the day, what am I?
[00:06:16]  I'm an investor.
[00:06:18]  I believe in investment.
[00:06:20]  And investment is all about reducing your risk.
[00:06:23]  And the only way you can understand and reduce your risk is to deal completely with reality.
[00:06:28]  It's the old expression deal with reality or it will deal with you.
[00:06:33]  You can't invest money in something without knowing.
[00:06:37]  You know, what's up and what's down.
[00:06:39]  Oh, right.
[00:06:40]  What's your risk?
[00:06:41]  Right.
[00:06:43]  Right.
[00:06:43]  If I'm going to buy a cattle ranch, I need to know 10% of cattle ranches in that area have been hit by cattle mutilation in the last two years, right?
[00:06:51]  Yes.
[00:06:52]  Yes.
[00:06:54]  Okay.
[00:06:56]  You know, that's against the truth.
[00:06:59]  You have a real incentive.
[00:07:01]  That's part of the problem.
[00:07:02]  It's part of the media problem, which is the incentive isn't for the truth, the incentive is for the narrative.
[00:07:08]  Right.
[00:07:10]  Well, if you can control through a simplistic narrative, that's what you're trying to do.
[00:07:14]  And that's exactly what's breaking down because it's too simplistic.
[00:07:17]  It won't work anymore.
[00:07:19]  Wow.
[00:07:21]  Catherine, I was talking about anniversaries, 75th anniversary of the National Security Act here, coming right up.
[00:07:30]  The impact of the National Security Act and the follow on CIA Act.
[00:07:40]  So.
[00:07:41]  You know, if there's one mistake we ever made, we should all get in a time machine and go back and support James Forrestal and get him to stop the 49 Act.
[00:07:49]  He tried, right?
[00:07:51]  Yes.
[00:07:52]  He tried.
[00:07:53]  Big mistake.
[00:07:55]  Even Truman wrote and said it was a mistake.
[00:07:58]  Eisenhower said it was a mistake.
[00:08:00]  They all said it was a mistake.
[00:08:01]  Why did we make that mistake?
[00:08:04]  Huge.
[00:08:05]  It altered the course.
[00:08:07]  Big mistake.
[00:08:08]  So let's talk taxation.
[00:08:10]  Do you have taxation there?
[00:08:11]  Yes.
[00:08:11]  You want me to pull up a copy?
[00:08:12]  Pull up taxation.
[00:08:14]  Okay.
[00:08:14]  So.
[00:08:15]  So, we've been trying to do the big money issues.
[00:08:17]  And of course, the last one, because I'm always saying don't finance your enemy.
[00:08:21]  Yes.
[00:08:21]  But the last one is taxes.
[00:08:24]  You know, I'm just about, I'm just working through my taxes.
[00:08:26]  I'm going to pay taxes.
[00:08:27]  We're all paying taxes.
[00:08:29]  I mean, if elections are not rigged, then there is no representation.
[00:08:33]  Why should we pay our taxes if there's no representation?
[00:08:37]  And that's the old watchword.
[00:08:38]  So, my attorney and I literally spent six months writing a piece to explain what the tax system is, an overview of how it works, and what the issues are involved in how we need to organize to deal with the fact that our taxes are going into a system that is violating the financial management laws.
[00:09:03]  In the extreme.
[00:09:06]  So, if the federal government is out of compliance with the financial management laws and is engaged in criminal activity on a systemic long term basis, we have to do something about that.
[00:09:20]  That cannot end well.
[00:09:22]  So, the question is how do citizens organize to do that?
[00:09:25]  And one of the things that makes it difficult is I think the citizens want to take back the government.
[00:09:33]  Don't us make the mistake of going to work and helping the central bankers finish destroying the government.
[00:09:40]  Because if you look at the existing constitution and laws, we have a lot of very good, we have a good constitution and we have good existing laws.
[00:09:51]  We do not want to lose them because if we do lose them, you know, we're over into the abyss.
[00:09:59]  Well, we're selling out those generations.
[00:10:01]  You've pointed this out before that it's supposed to be a fashionable thing for a millennial to say, like, Oh, you know, the boomers are getting social security.
[00:10:07]  Let's scrap that, you know, and reinvest that in the environment or something.
[00:10:12]  That's just returning the money that your parents and grandparents have worked for and giving it directly to Mr. Global.
[00:10:18]  Right.
[00:10:19]  So you're destroying your own family wealth.
[00:10:22]  Right.
[00:10:23]  Right.
[00:10:24]  So, anyway, so we wanted to help people understand the question, understand who are the kinds of people who can deal with this question.
[00:10:33]  Because we have state legislatures and state AGs.
[00:10:36]  Who are paid to deal with this question and can deal with this question if we support them.
[00:10:42]  And so you have to build a constituency to support them.
[00:10:46]  One of the things I point out is there are ways to claw some of the money back individually.
[00:10:51]  So when I start in taxation, did you read the story of what I did?
[00:10:57]  Yes.
[00:10:59]  Okay.
[00:11:00]  So when I settled the litigation, I had the missing money.
[00:11:04]  Now it's $65,000 per person as of the end of 2015.
[00:11:09]  But when I settled the litigation, Was up to $14,000 per person.
[00:11:13]  And it turned out that one of the New York Fed member banks, one of the largest, I owed $14,000 on a credit card from when the litigation started.
[00:11:23]  And I was taking, I got a large settlement.
[00:11:26]  I was trying to pay off all the creditors.
[00:11:29]  And I wrote them a letter and said, you know, dear ladies and gentlemen, I said, I owe you $14,000 on this credit card and you owe me $14,000 because this is the depository and a primary dealer for the US government.
[00:11:45]  You disappeared $14,000 of my money.
[00:11:48]  You're legally liable and responsible.
[00:11:50]  So I'm going to assert a common law right of offset and I'm going to offset what you owe me against what I owe you.
[00:11:58]  We're even.
[00:11:59]  Now, if you have a problem with that, here's the name and address and telephone number of my attorney.
[00:12:05]  You know, I'd be happy to negotiate and litigate with you.
[00:12:08]  You know, sincerely yours.
[00:12:10]  Wow.
[00:12:11]  I never heard another word.
[00:12:12]  It's incredible.
[00:12:14]  Right.
[00:12:17]  You know, it makes me think of Aaron Russo when he was running around during this documentary and he's like, you know, is the IRS even a legal organization?
[00:12:26]  You couldn't give a straight answer in Washington.
[00:12:30]  So, one of the reasons I've never gone through this thing of, you know, I don't have to pay my taxes individually is if you look at all the ways our money gets spent, there's a lot of good things we spend money on.
[00:12:46]  And I'm a great believer in paying taxes to pay for those things, to fund those things.
[00:12:52]  Right.
[00:12:53]  And when you start talking about, let's not all, you know, pay our taxes.
[00:12:58]  What the people who depend on that money hear is, you know, we're going to pull the rug out from under them.
[00:13:04]  And that's not the signal we want to send.
[00:13:07]  We want to be the bringers of law.
[00:13:09]  In other words, the problem is the rule of law is deteriorating and we want to return the rule of law.
[00:13:14]  And you can't do that by saying, okay, well, I'm just going to walk out.
[00:13:19]  You do that by walking into the center and saying, I'm going to turn this to something that's lawful.
[00:13:26]  Absolutely.
[00:13:26]  So let's simplify that even further.
[00:13:29]  So, you have one group over here that says, hey, you know, the government is operating its black budget.
[00:13:34]  I'm not being represented.
[00:13:35]  I'm not paying my taxes anymore.
[00:13:37]  That's different than what you're suggesting, which is make that government accountable for the taxes that you pay.
[00:13:44]  Right.
[00:13:45]  Right.
[00:13:45]  But, and so the question is, how do I do that?
[00:13:49]  And that's why we wrote taxation was to, and a lot of it, I think the best opportunities are your state legislature because the state legislature.
[00:14:01]  Has the wherewithal and the authority, if they have support from the citizenry, to exercise responsibility.
[00:14:09]  So, you know, that money, and they're going to have to, because if you try and do this at a county level and the state government sides with the Fed and pulls the rug out from under you, it's not going to work.
[00:14:23]  So, under the Constitution, you have to have the benefit of the powers reserved to the states, I think.
[00:14:32]  Excellent points.
[00:14:33]  You know, I would also point out if you have credit card debt with a bank and you feel like doing this, particularly if you have a good lawyer who will represent you, you want to have that fight.
[00:14:43]  You know, with a credit card, with a house, you've got a mortgage.
[00:14:46]  So that's a much more dangerous thing to do.
[00:14:49]  But with a credit card, you know, or student loan.
[00:14:55]  Really interesting.

=== Understanding Primary Trends (05:58) ===

[00:14:57]  Right.
[00:14:57]  Stefan, you have a great example, which is if there's a school, In your district, there that you're sending your kids to, and it starts doing this kind of obscene sex education, for example, the grooming process that's involved.
[00:15:10]  And you say, Well, we're not going to pay for that.
[00:15:12]  So I need a mechanism.
[00:15:15]  So we'll create this whole thing and put it in escrow.
[00:15:17]  We'll put those taxes in escrow.
[00:15:18]  Well, there are a couple things you could do.
[00:15:20]  And I've always believed for many school districts, not all, if you audit all of their books and records to the extent you can get a hold of the information, I'll bet you you find places where they.
[00:15:34]  You know, they've made mistakes or they're not in compliance.
[00:15:37]  So, if you just want to get political leverage, tearing through their books and records could be helpful.
[00:15:44]  The second thing is, you know, I do think in a school district, you could get people to escrow their taxes and make the payment condition on the school, you know, obeying the law.
[00:15:58]  You would probably have to litigate the, you know, sort of the policy issues.
[00:16:06]  I think you cannot continue to pay government enterprises money that are not delivering the service.
[00:16:18]  Can't do it.
[00:16:20]  And particularly children and religion.
[00:16:23]  Right.
[00:16:24]  Yeah.
[00:16:26]  Fantastic, incredible stuff today, Catherine.
[00:16:29]  I just want to ask you this because I've been pouring through your reports all week and that thread that's been running.
[00:16:35]  And I say that this thread goes through all your reports, but I want to really focus, say, in the past two or three years.
[00:16:41]  There's been this thread which has something to do with balancing out this idea of the missing money, the taxation representation, and the fight back, which you did a lot of in 2021.
[00:16:55]  And where we are now, the state of the currencies, the CDBC, and these different things.
[00:17:02]  Where is it now?
[00:17:03]  Where is that thread heading?
[00:17:05]  And how do you see that curve?
[00:17:08]  So, what we've been trying to do is show you.
[00:17:13]  So, I'm a great believer in the primary trends.
[00:17:16]  So, a primary trend is a long live trend that's going to go on for a long time.
[00:17:23]  So, the rise of Asia or the rise of the space based economy.
[00:17:28]  And my feeling is you can watch the news and feel confused, or you can learn the primary trends one at a time.
[00:17:36]  So each quarter, we try and focus on a primary trend or something about a primary trend.
[00:17:42]  And if you just learn the primary trends, it's like having a coat rack.
[00:17:47]  And when all the headlines come in, they're like coats and you can put them on the coat rack.
[00:17:52]  Right.
[00:17:53]  So if you understand the 20 primary trends, then all this stops being noise and just kind of.
[00:18:00]  You know, it fits within those 20 buckets, and things are very easy to understand.
[00:18:06]  So, our job at the Solari Report is to get you to understand those deeper trends.
[00:18:12]  And as the noise is filling up the news, what we want you to see are the big economic, financial, and political realities that are really controlling.
[00:18:28]  So, you don't have a mass hypnosis problem.
[00:18:31]  In the United States, you have a $21 trillion is missing problem, and they're trying to make you crazy instead of getting your money back.
[00:18:40]  Okay.
[00:18:41]  Yes.
[00:18:42]  So if you're lost in virtual reality in the metaverse, you won't ask for your $65,000 back.
[00:18:48]  Right.
[00:18:49]  Exactly.
[00:18:50]  Right.
[00:18:50]  And you won't notice when they take your kids.
[00:18:53]  Right.
[00:18:53]  You're off in the metaverse.
[00:18:56]  So we're trying to focus you on the big economic and financial realities that are driving.
[00:19:05]  You know, including all these media distractions.
[00:19:08]  And so you can see the big things that are going on.
[00:19:13]  So I come back to actionable intelligence.
[00:19:15]  What is it important for someone to know?
[00:19:19]  Right.
[00:19:20]  Now, so we're trying to create a framework and focus them on the real problems so that they can navigate them.
[00:19:28]  In other words, I want you to know the news while there's still time for you to do something about it.
[00:19:34]  Right.
[00:19:35]  You know, turn the boat before it hits the iceberg.
[00:19:38]  Now, if you say, where are things going?
[00:19:41]  The challenge each of us has is the number of scenarios of where things could go are just mind boggling in terms of what could happen.
[00:19:52]  But we know some things.
[00:19:54]  We know food, energy, shelter.
[00:19:58]  It is very possible or almost a certainty that prices are going to go up and quality is going to continue to deteriorate.
[00:20:07]  And the question for you is: how are you going to deal with that in your family, in your personal life, in your business?
[00:20:14]  How are you going to deal with rising expenses, lowering incomes, all sorts of grabs and hiccups on assets driven by regulation, government, crime, all these different things, and a real implosion of the culture around you?
[00:20:32]  How are you going to deal with that?
[00:20:34]  That's what we talk about on the Solari report.
[00:20:38]  And if you look at when we've been through, when the human race has been in times like this before, Or things that were similar, you know, this kind of rapid change and institutional breakdown, there are ways of dealing with this and there are ways of being resilient and prepared.

=== Tapping Into Wisdom (03:36) ===

[00:20:56]  But what I would say is, I think in the next, so let me just go back and be US centric.
[00:21:07]  I think the mask is coming off.
[00:21:11]  And as a result, the leadership will become more and more violent to try.
[00:21:17]  And controlled domestically and internationally.
[00:21:21]  And I think it will probably fail.
[00:21:24]  Yeah.
[00:21:29]  And what a lot of us need to do is we need to be really good at ducking.
[00:21:35]  And while we're ducking, we need to rebuild.
[00:21:40]  So each person is different, everybody's situation is different.
[00:21:44]  But each one of us needs to do everything we can to withdraw from that.
[00:21:50]  Which is not productive and build that which is productive and learn to protect it.
[00:21:55]  So, one great story in the Bible is Nehemiah, where the wall that protects them from the bad guys gets broken.
[00:22:04]  And so they have to rebuild the wall while they're still fighting.
[00:22:10]  And there are a lot of songs about this where you've got a weapon in one hand and a tool in another, and you've got to build and fight at the same time.
[00:22:18]  Yeah, that's where we are.
[00:22:22]  That's where we are.
[00:22:24]  Incredible.
[00:22:27]  The best tool in this war, besides prayer.
[00:22:31]  The best tool is prayer.
[00:22:32]  If you come into Salier, we have a complimentary prayer book.
[00:22:35]  So we send it out to anybody who wants one.
[00:22:37]  Or it's just PDF, you can print it out.
[00:22:40]  But the hardest thing to do in this environment, and this environment, I hate to say it, if you look at what happened to me between 1996 and 2006, now it's happening to everybody.
[00:22:54]  So sometimes I feel very sad that, like, Oh, welcome to my world.
[00:23:00]  So it's called the big, you know, the black neighborhoods call it the beat down.
[00:23:04]  You know, so we're all on the beat down now.
[00:23:05]  Right.
[00:23:06]  So, the hardest thing in a situation like this is where do you invest your time?
[00:23:15]  Yes.
[00:23:16]  You know, what do you do?
[00:23:17]  How do you do it?
[00:23:18]  So I went through a long period when I couldn't go to a hospital or a doctor.
[00:23:22]  I had to, whatever, the only options I had were do it yourself.
[00:23:26]  And so the hardest thing was, well, you know, what do you try?
[00:23:30]  You know, and there are thousands, there are always thousands of options.
[00:23:35]  And so what I found was the single most efficient navigation tool was prayer.
[00:23:43]  And in prayer, you know, you really can ask for help and you really will get it.
[00:23:49]  And, you know, one person said wisdom is woven throughout the fabric of the universe.
[00:23:57]  And you just have to tap into that wisdom.
[00:24:00]  The other thing that helps tremendously is just.
[00:24:04]  Clean out of your life.
[00:24:05]  We have a great article called Coming Clean.
[00:24:07]  Just clean out of your life people and institutions that don't have integrity because they eat up a huge amount of time.
[00:24:14]  Wow.
[00:24:14]  You know, all you need is one bad dog to make a mess.
[00:24:19]  Yes.
[00:24:20]  Yeah, get the mess out of your life.
[00:24:22]  So that's dramatic how much impact one person or one institution can have on you.
[00:24:29]  Well, here's an interesting story.
[00:24:31]  I'll give you a perfect example.

=== Cleaning Out Your Life (10:42) ===

[00:24:33]  When, as you know, during the Bush administration, I had an absolutely dreadful experience with the New York Times that persuaded me they were a criminal enterprise.
[00:24:42]  And then during the Clinton administration, I had a similar horrible experience with the Washington Post that persuaded me they were a criminal enterprise.
[00:24:50]  And when that happened, I said, Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me.
[00:24:55]  And that's when I said, I will never spend an hour again talking to corporate media, ever.
[00:25:02]  They're out forever.
[00:25:03]  I will talk to people.
[00:25:05]  Somebody has a question.
[00:25:06]  So I was doing these radio shows.
[00:25:08]  People would email me questions and I'd email the answer.
[00:25:12]  And I never spent another Five minutes trying to talk to anybody in corporate media.
[00:25:18]  I wouldn't respond.
[00:25:19]  I wouldn't, you know, I just, they're out forever.
[00:25:22]  And I watched all these great people spend years trying to earn their way back into, you know, like they were just praying they could get back in and get attention.
[00:25:34]  And they wasted a huge amount of time.
[00:25:37]  And my process of answering questions grew into the Solari Report.
[00:25:41]  Amazing.
[00:25:42]  And then it grew into an investment advisory business.
[00:25:46]  And I never looked back and I never paid any attention.
[00:25:49]  And it was because I put all my time into following the thread of helping people with their real questions.
[00:25:57]  And it was the smartest thing I ever did.
[00:26:00]  And all the people who kept trying to get back in broke their hearts.
[00:26:06]  It was horrible to watch it.
[00:26:09]  But there was no way back into that world.
[00:26:12]  But you took the opportunity, and by taking the jump, you opened up something completely new.
[00:26:18]  Right.
[00:26:19]  And the other thing was, I said, you know, I don't want to go back into the establishment.
[00:26:27]  You know, I don't need to go back.
[00:26:29]  I don't, it's what Franklin Sanders called it.
[00:26:32]  He says, I don't hunger for the treats of the tapeworm.
[00:26:36]  You're right.
[00:26:37]  So, you know, and I was very successful there, and I don't need to prove my capabilities in terms of investment banking or money.
[00:26:48]  You know, I, I did that.
[00:26:51]  So I have that already.
[00:26:52]  And that's kind of a blessing.
[00:26:55]  And now I just want to figure out a way into the future which can really work economically, both governance and economics, which is why I've got to go with the truth.
[00:27:06]  So I've got to look at UFOs.
[00:27:08]  I've got to go, you know, I've got to understand who's doing the blue chicken, who's financing the blue chicken op and why.
[00:27:14]  You know, one of my favorite days was the day I put out, you know, I was still on Twitter at the time and I said, You got an account at Fidelity, you got an account at BlackRock, you got an account at Vanguard.
[00:27:25]  Go ask those guys with their treasury positions why they're financing the blue chicken avian alien op.
[00:27:33]  You know, I bet you a whole bunch of people did that.
[00:27:35]  I bet you they called, you know, customer service at BlackRock and said, Why are you guys financing the blue avian chicken op?
[00:27:46]  That's a classic case right there.
[00:27:48]  Well, I had a wonderful subscriber the other day who wrote in and she said, You know, I called Vanguard and I said, Are you going to do to me what the Canadian truckers, what those people got done to them?
[00:27:57]  Are you going to do that?
[00:27:58]  And they said, Oh, that would never happen here.
[00:28:01]  And she said, Will you give me that writing that you will never do to me what they did?
[00:28:07]  Wow.
[00:28:07]  That guy kicked up.
[00:28:09]  Call customer service.
[00:28:10]  You know, I'm telling you, push back.
[00:28:15]  Can you imagine if Fidelity got 100 calls asking them why they financed the blue avian chicken alien op?
[00:28:26]  A Gaia TV would collapse on the spot.
[00:28:31]  That's great.
[00:28:32]  Well, but I can think of 100 more, you know, so.
[00:28:35]  Yeah, TTSA.
[00:28:36]  Well, yeah, here's the big one.
[00:28:39]  I don't know if you've seen the Pfizer, you know, Naomi Wolf's assessment of the Pfizer documents.
[00:28:45]  Yeah, she's done some great work on this.
[00:28:47]  You know, having investors call all their money managers and these funds and say, you know, what is the implication to me as a shareholder?
[00:28:58]  What is the liability?
[00:29:01]  What are the liability issues and what's my liability as a shareholder?
[00:29:05]  Should I keep or sell the stock?
[00:29:08]  You know, could the stock go bankrupt?
[00:29:13]  This should be out there and triggered right through her analysis of the documents.
[00:29:17]  Those people should use that as a basis.
[00:29:19]  And you, as someone who's been around investment for a long time and has this ethical sense of it, that should be something where if somebody's looking at this and they're just like, oh, yeah, I have all this Pfizer stock, it's a perfect opportunity.
[00:29:36]  Right.
[00:29:36]  And because a lot of people in there, particularly in the 401k or 403b, You know, your only choice is index funds, and by definition, you get a little bit of everything.
[00:29:51]  So, I don't know, taxation, investment, all these different areas, it's time to connect the dots and, you know, start to turn the ship.
[00:30:03]  And the one thing I will not tolerate is don't say you're not important because you are.
[00:30:08]  Excellent.
[00:30:09]  Right.
[00:30:09]  You deserve to have a good bank that you can trust.
[00:30:12]  I don't know if you saw it.
[00:30:14]  The bankers and credit unions have now organized to object to CBDCs.
[00:30:19]  Excellent.
[00:30:20]  And what that tells me is they're beginning to understand exactly what's up here.
[00:30:24]  They're catching on.
[00:30:25]  You said they had to catch on or they were going to be eliminated, basically.
[00:30:28]  Well, one of the reasons we did the CBDC write up and the going direct write up and the vaccine passports and mailed it to many people in many places was to try and get them to take this very, very seriously because they need a certain quality of presentation to really make.
[00:30:49]  You know, to understand this is real, this is happening.
[00:30:52]  And I think one of the things that helped was the Biden administration nominated somebody for control over the currency who had a record as an adult of shoplifting.
[00:31:04]  Yeah, yes.
[00:31:05]  And John Titus, God love him, made a video called Sticky Fingers Amarova.
[00:31:12]  And it showed her shoplifting these pocketbooks that she had shoplifted.
[00:31:19]  Anyway, but she had written an article for Vanderbilt Law Review, which describes what she's proposing in terms of CBDC.
[00:31:28]  And the way she describes it is absolutely the most terrifying thing you have ever read.
[00:31:34]  God bless her for being willing to put it in writing.
[00:31:38]  And I think that process of getting her stopped, she was stopped.
[00:31:43]  The process of getting her stopped got all those guys to really read what these guys are talking about.
[00:31:48]  And they said.
[00:31:50]  Yeah.
[00:31:51]  So let me just end on this note.
[00:31:54]  And, you know, whether you're seeing the bankers and credit unions come up or, you know, or doctors or scientists, you have so many different groups pushing back.
[00:32:04]  But what they're all doing is you're slowly beginning, it's what Andrew Wakefield described, you're slowly awaking a sleeping giant of the productive people globally who want to say, we just want to be productive.
[00:32:22]  And we can't be productive, you know, in Bizarro World.
[00:32:27]  And I think there's finally a recognition that the psychopathy at the global level is as serious as it is.
[00:32:39]  I mean, it's interesting.
[00:32:40]  I didn't watch Kissinger's comments, but what you're describing is even Kissinger is describing the neocons as deranged.
[00:32:50]  It's remarkable.
[00:32:52]  It is.
[00:32:53]  I think that that is like, you know, it's one of those lines in the sand.
[00:32:57]  It's like when they banned the president off Twitter.
[00:33:00]  It's one of those.
[00:33:01]  Signs that just, you know, you're too far off the rails at that point.
[00:33:06]  Catherine Crowell.
[00:33:08]  What Kissinger just announced was that we've lost.
[00:33:11]  That's what you're saying.
[00:33:15]  Right.
[00:33:16]  Right.
[00:33:17]  That makes sense.
[00:33:18]  That's the interpretation.
[00:33:20]  Right.
[00:33:20]  Well, which brings us back to the question of, you know, Putin's been getting support from the West.
[00:33:26]  Where is it coming from?
[00:33:29]  Oh, yeah.
[00:33:32]  Yeah.
[00:33:34]  Well, you've often pointed out that the group you felt that had been doing the majority of these things was not actually a very large group, which I always thought was interesting.
[00:33:44]  People portray many of these things as this huge monolithic somebody that's coming out to get everyone.
[00:33:50]  But you always said, you know, it's not really like we're talking about a lot of people.
[00:33:55]  I don't think so.
[00:33:56]  I don't think.
[00:33:57]  I mean, if you look at how it rolls out, it involves a lot of people.
[00:34:01]  But if you look at who's making the most important strategic decisions for the Central banks or the insurance industry or the big equity investment, it's not a lot of people.
[00:34:13]  Incredible.
[00:34:16]  Wow.
[00:34:16]  Catherine, fantastic to see you.
[00:34:19]  And of course, the reports are incredible education and so timely now.
[00:34:26]  And I think, you know, the world is catching up to the reports finally.
[00:34:30]  But talk about Christian.
[00:34:31]  I promise if we grow more, we'll finance comic books.
[00:34:35]  That's my.
[00:34:38]  No, I love comic books.
[00:34:39]  I grew up on comic books.
[00:34:41]  I believe in comic books.
[00:34:42]  One of the reasons I got an A in Shakespeare in college was I had all the classic comic books.
[00:34:51]  I love to be able to make a comic book for every wrap up.
[00:34:53]  That's great.
[00:34:54]  That's a fantastic idea.
[00:34:56]  But it's great to see, you know, I'm reminded of a Steiner quote to round everything out, which is about the war of all against all.
[00:35:05]  And when I think of the, you know, that's saying that they're trying to roll out, it's that war of all against all.
[00:35:11]  It is.
[00:35:13]  It is.

=== Growing Through Comic Books (02:51) ===

[00:35:15]  It is Bucky.
[00:35:17]  What was it?
[00:35:20]  What's his name?
[00:35:21]  Buckminster Fuller.
[00:35:23]  Yeah, Buckminster Fuller called it the grunge.
[00:35:26]  Yes.
[00:35:27]  Yeah.
[00:35:28]  Yeah, the grunge.
[00:35:30]  That's what we'll call this episode.
[00:35:35]  That's what we have to do.
[00:35:36]  We have to find a way to keep our state of amusement.
[00:35:40]  And.
[00:35:43]  And find coherence.
[00:35:44]  We, when I, during the litigation, when things were really bad, very dire, we created something called the Soleri Beauty Tool.
[00:35:55]  And it was a list of all the things we could do to cheer ourselves up that weren't expensive, so that were economic.
[00:36:04]  And we literally had like a three page document, which was a list of just all these things we could do.
[00:36:10]  And what was funny was when things got really horrible, You know, it created such a memory wipe that we couldn't remember anything that would cheer us up at that moment.
[00:36:20]  We were too down in the dumps.
[00:36:22]  So we had to write this tool so that when we got in that state, we could pull it out and say, ah, yes, I could do this or I could do this.
[00:36:30]  And then we'd start doing things to cheer ourselves up and it would work.
[00:36:33]  And it would, the Solarium Beauty tool would always pull us out.
[00:36:38]  But literally, we had to have it written because otherwise we wouldn't.
[00:36:41]  And so the other day, it got lost, you know.
[00:36:45]  One way or another, with some old laptop, it disappeared.
[00:36:48]  So, I have a group of people I work with on occasion, and we decided we would build a new one because the time had come when we.
[00:36:57]  I want to read it.
[00:36:59]  We really needed help with our state of amusement.
[00:37:03]  I sent it to a friend.
[00:37:04]  I sent the first draft, and I said, What did I forget?
[00:37:07]  And she wrote back and she said, Stargazing.
[00:37:10]  But then, of course, DHS might arrest her for looking for UFOs.
[00:37:16]  That's right.
[00:37:18]  Those damn amateur interest groups.
[00:37:24]  Oh, Lord.
[00:37:25]  It's great to see you.
[00:37:27]  It's great to see you, Daniel.
[00:37:28]  Be careful.
[00:37:29]  Be careful around those boys in Boston.
[00:37:32]  I know.
[00:37:35]  I'm keeping an eye on them.
[00:37:37]  Okay.
[00:37:38]  Okay.
[00:37:39]  They've probably fallen into a mass formation, hypnosis.
[00:37:43]  No, mass hypnosis formation.
[00:37:45]  Formation, yes.
[00:37:47]  Yeah.
[00:37:48]  Yeah.
[00:37:48]  Okay, sir.
[00:37:50]  Catherine, absolutely amazing.
[00:37:52]  Phenomenal insight.
[00:37:53]  And of course, everyone can find you at Solari.com.
[00:37:57]  And we're going to have you back here shortly.
[00:37:58]  We have some very special reports coming up this week.
