They're losing control of the gold market.  They're losing control of the silver.  They've lost control of the silver market.  They've lost control of the gold market.  Now the big question is are they going to . . . the definition of money is changing.  It is becoming digitized or it's becoming tokenized.  I know that sounds risky to Bitcoiners, that sounds like, oh, my God, that's just those are just s*** coins.  I'm like well I got news for you, I understand also that you guys feel that US dollars are s*** coins. Be honest with you I don't disagree with that sentiment.  It is a Perpetual War.  You're always fighting this impulse for people to want to rule over others.  If you read the Constitution carefully, folks.  If you think Trump is a dictator now, you ain't seen with the president can actually do.  Now he knows, and he's executing like he knows.  Are we going to stand up like men and say we want to live free or are we going to . . .

How many Americans do you think are aware of any of this?  

3:07.  . . . simply put, you have to accept the fact that the game that Trump is actually fighting is playing and is much different than the game that everybody thinks he's playing the best way I've described it recently is that we all exist we all kind of everyday we get up and we interface the game the great game yeah who runs the world and all of that and we see it at the ground level we see it at the middle management level right?  We see it at the Hillary Clinton level at the gym Comey level not even at the George Soros level because he is at best upper management Larry Fink at Black Rock also upper management.  But they're not really the actual game. What you have is at least three strata.  You have the lieutenants who are doing stuff on a day-to-day basis you have the upper management who run all the big corporations and supposedly the countries but there is not there's really not that much difference between the countries and the corporations that we're talking about the black rocks and Microsoft Bill Gates Foundations the Ford Foundation the European Union what not and then you have the strata above that the people who nominally I would put under that rubric of Davos but it's that is more pointed than that.  Now it's a king of England the old banking cartels of Europe it's the real bankers and the real movers and shakers of the world who don't have Wikipedia pages.  They have banking relationships with banks you've never heard of.  I hate to be blunt but the whole concept of the high table and the Unseen world of John Wick is probably closer to the truth then we would like to to be comfortable with the reality is that the high tables unseen layer of organized crime assassins drug traffickers human traffickers a traffic flow when we see a kids in a black block running around the streets of Chicago and Portland attacking ICE agents, and the local police department's turning a blind eye to it, and then we get angry about it, and then we say, "Well, see, Donald Trump doesn't have this crime under control."  Well he's the reason that they're doing that s*** like that now is because he is fighting them at that level.  That's why he's blowing boats out of the water off the coast of Venezuela.  It's why he's killing . . . it's why he's deporting Tren de Aragua.  It's why they're fighting him and saying, "Well . . .  these are real people.  They've been here for 15 years."  Yes, 15 years running drugs and kids and everything else.  I'm sorry but that's the reality.  

6:20.  Then when you look at the counter moves that have been happening every time Trump puts pressure on them and one Arena they fight back in another Arena.  And so what we are dealing with literally right now that the Civil War is on it's actually been going on for a while but the Civil War in the United States is happening as we speak everything you're seeing out of the Democrats with the shutdown, with the way they're running the shutdown, it's all tied absolute directly to trying to stop Trump from recapitalizing the middle class through the plan of action that he has to lower regulations Deport all the illegals change the immigration system cut the regulations in half trying and get taxes lowered fire a whole bunch of federal staff get rid of the managerial state and and all that cuts at various levels and attacks all their funding.  When you think about how you beat a big unseen enemy like that you don't send Keanu Reeves in with an unlimited supply of ammunition that's a metaphor the Unstoppable killing machine really is a man of supreme will I'm not talking Donald Trump is John Wick here I'm just saying that John Wick exists as an idea that we're going to have infinite will to do what's necessary to take these people down no matter how much it cost us, no matter how much violence is going to be applied against us that's where we are so we watch Trump and what's he doing?  He's attacking their funding at three very very important levels the first level was USAID and the NGOs that's the public money that he could have direct access to as the Article II Executive of the United States.  The second layer is the more dangerous layer.  That's the one they're fighting him on now, which is the cartels, the organized crime, the private money that, and all the government related money laundering that goes on. Remember the organized crime layer, that upper management or the unseen layer interacts with, they interact with the various organized crime families and organizations around the world.  They're interfacing with directly with all the IC intelligence community of all the major countries in the world. So that link has to be broken and that money has to dry up and you have to attack process so it's a two-pronged assault first it's DNI Gabbard going after various people within the intelligence community, outing them, firing them when necessary, or whatever.  And the other side of it is, of course, sending Tom Holman with ICE and arresting them all, and then watching the response.  Once you view this as a big freaking gang war as a Turf War of Epic Proportions then you realize that this is a war and that and genders anxiety in normal people because they see it as just chaos.  And wars are fought strategically.  That means you're seeing a whole variety of different actions being taken of different types.  If I just saw chaos, Cedric, I wouldn't . . . try to blow a literal smoke up your ass and say it wasn't that if I didn't actually see what I thought.  Like, if I had a plan to take these people out, it would look a lot like what Donald Trump is doing I never really had a plan on it I just kind of like had a vague idea in my head but the more I started watching it play itself out, I'm like, "Oh, that's what he's doing."  And the more I talk to people who have military backgrounds and whatnot who understand this type of action this kind of theory of action and we, I see one part of it in the financial markets, in the information warfare,  we all come to the same conclusion this is what's going on.

How Is this different from the Chevron Deference of 2024? 

But every president has ever had the privilege to remove members of the previous administration who are more in line with his values and goals to get things done during his administration.  See Tom DiLorenzo.  

Humphrey's Executor, 1935.

Humphrey's Executor v. United States (1935) was a Supreme Court case that ruled Congress can limit the President's power to remove officials from independent agencies, like the Federal Trade Commission, unless there is cause such as inefficiency or misconduct. This decision established that certain agencies have a degree of independence from executive control, which has been a significant aspect of administrative law.

— Dangerous Intellectuals Podcast (@DangerThinking) September 30, 2025

6:30. The big one to talk about is how we're going to stop the civil war strategy that is clearly on the table because their final move is to get Trump to simultaneously embroiled in an article 5 over in Ukraine while at the same time have a whole bunch of democratic Governors from Republican states go with the Left Coast and the Northeast and try and split the country in two.  

Over the weekend, it was really funny I was scrappling all weekend.  I did one podcast on Friday and then I went over and visited some friends, my business partner at Gold, Goats, and Guns, Dexter White, and I met with a couple other people I'm friends with and I woke up Sunday morning to a DM on Twitter, I was waiting for Dexter to wake up and make coffee, and this very astute reader and listener who published like a 270 to Win map of the country, red versus blue, but not with the electoral votes in each state, but with the names of the governors and the party of the governors, and said you have to really think about this in terms of blocs.  If they're going to go for a secession strategy, they have to do so in blocs.  They can't just have individual States like pop up here and there, in this person's mind it was really fascinating.  But the minute he said it, I'm like, well, obviously.  What has Trump done?  He's now said we're going into Portland and we're going into Illinois because you got to break up the Left Coast and take control of Oregon and you've got to take control of Chicago in order to stop the the Great Lakes strategy because clearly Mark Carney has rallied the elites at the North End of the Great Lakes, and then you have the Northeast. About 2 months ago I sat down for one of my bi-weekly podcast that I do for my patrons I call them the market reports and I said you know it's really funny I woke up one morning and I said the British Empire is still a naval Empire.  They are the inheritors of the Old Dutch banking Empire before that.  It's always been a naval power and a marine power, because, look, at the end of the day, pipelines can be blown up, bridges can be blown up, but at the end of the day, ships can be protected and they can move around the world and move goods and services around the world.  So a maritime Empire is actually far more powerful then a land-based Empire in many ways. Witness why the British have been able to cock block Russia from becoming a land-based empire for over 200 years.  So if you look at the strategy from a Governor's perspective and the way that Kathy Hochul is acting  in New York and the way that Gavin Newsom is acting in California, Katie Hobbs in Arizona, and others, and Mark Carney in Canada, you really quickly, when you just take those areas of the country and color them different, you realize that they have . . . they're trying to control all of the ports outside of Florida and Savannah, Georgia, and Texas.  That's clearly the strategy.  Control all of the ports on the left coast.  Control all of the northeastern deep water ports and the St. Lawrence River system, which is the Great Lakes.  The only thing we have left, the Americans have left is the Mississippi Delta and the Port of Miami, and the port of Jacksonville, FL, and Savannah, and that's not enough folks.  So clearly this is their strategy.  So that's the one that we have to watch for here and that's the one that we should be watching for so let's ask a simple question.  Why is Chuck Schumer all of a sudden the dumbest person on the planet?  Because why is he going for government shutdown when I know full well that Ross Vought over at OMB identified two years ago what $1.5 trillion dollars he would cut from the budget tomorrow and the minute . . . 

10:24.  They shut it down.

10:26.  He could literally order a reduction of force and fire them all.

10:28.  President Trump can go on a shopping spree.  He can get every communist out of the government by de facto and go on a shopping spree of collapsing all of these agencies.  He can go take a knife to the intelligence community.  So the question that I'm looking at is, then why is Schumer going in that direction, that, "I'll do it, don't you stop me, I'll do it," and we're all just cheering him on, go ahead.  

10:56.  It's like the meme, "Your terms are acceptable."  So I'm thinking about this, I'm like well, then, clearly it's because they have another strategy.  Mamdami is going to win in New York.  Hochul has rolled over there.  Whitmer is not going to let John James become, however they figure it out in Michigan, become governor of Michigan.  Whatever they are trying to do in Virginia in the governor's race there.  Clearly it's dust on point over and over and over again, just saying the same thing . . .

11:26.  Oh, yeah, his Christmas bonus from the WEFs is going to be significant.

11:28.  Yeah, it's insane.  Same thing in Oregon.  They are clearly ginning up the these protests in particular places.  The Trump Administration is poking them.  They're responding very predictably, and then they're trying to move towards an escalatory framework, no different than what NATO is doing with Putin over Ukraine.  Everyday it's the same thing. We keep moving up the escalatory ladder because someone who wants war is clearly trying to provoke the other side into firing first so that then they can say "He's the dictator.  He's the aggressor," blah blah blah.. they're trying to do this for both Trump and Putin so far has and at a certain point Putin is like, "You know what?  F*** a whole lot of you.  I don't care.  I just don't care, and I'm doing what I need to do to protect Russia.  Trump on the other hand has to play a much more nuanced game in order to not become into "cream-sicle Mussolini."  

12:33.  Here's the interesting part about this, and I can't believe it took me this long to put it together. They are maneuvering Donald Trump into the same position that they maneuvered Abraham Lincoln in pre-Civil War.  And then you think back . . . Rick Wilson, Evan McMullin, and all those guys, they call themselves The Lincoln Project.  Isn't it interesting they call themselves The Lincoln Project, the hardest core of anti-Trumpers were trying to maneuver Trump into creating a second coming of Abraham Lincoln.  They're now going to try to turn that around to make him into the bad guy it finally hit me over the weekend oh that's why they called us a Lincoln project they're thumbing their nose at us.

13:13. So at the highest end what really caught my attention last week is two speeches and it wasn't the Netanyahu speech at all at the UN General Assembly. one, President Trump against all of them.

13:27.  Absolutely.

13:28.  Chinese Communist Party, here it is, The City of London, Chinese Communist Party, World Economic Forum, you little urchins and apparatchiks in Europe, I reject all of this.  I'm not doing this, and we are coming for you with painful policies wherever we need to do that. In fact, this morning it's floating around the web that President Trump might have murmured in his office that "You know, the World Economic Forum looks a lot like a terrorist organization."  Now wouldn't that be a delicious idea?

But the other speech that caught my attention, and I would call this "The Rebuttal Speech," [September 23, 2025] is Antonio Guterres.  He basically came up with an opposite sentence to every single thing that President Trump laid out and said, 

How dare you bring up national sovereignty!  We won't have it.  Yes we are going to have our sustainable development goals.  We are going to have our digital ID.  We are going to blow right through your sovereignty, and we are going to have a one world government, and you're not going to tell us we're not. 

So to me, that was the most significant UN General Assembly that that self-licking ice cream cone has never had.  Now you've got okay pistols at dawn but that's why I ask, is it a global, or a civil war, or a revolution?  And I say, circle all of the above.

14:45.  Absolutely.  And that's why I think Trump comes back from the UN . . . if I were Trump, I would have kicked them out of the UN. Funny thing is I was chatting with Dexter White about this very thing of ours, I would have kicked the UN . . . oh I would have kicked the UN out of the United States right after Guterres's speech.  He said, "You know what I would have done?  If I was Trump, because I'm a dick, I would publish a Redevelopment plan of that entire area of that area of New York, like the First Avenue subway that we've never been able to build because the one has got property there Trump would just like show up one day read the Redevelopment plan for New York and everybody would be like, ' But President Trump, the UN is right there.'"

17:57.  In advance of that, I have heard for sure that we're looking at a definite order of reorganization of the Department of War, and I hope what we see out of that is a lot of the fluff because the Department of Defense, or the Department of Everything, Dept. of Misgendered People, and everything else, so what is that going to look like?  And he's going to look at 838 people, and all just be blunt, most of whom don't know how to fight wars, or how to strategize them and he's going to be refocusing them in a new direction.  Why don't you tell me what you think that's going to be about.

18:32.  I'll be honest with you, Blaine, I think we've already gotten a taste of it from the Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, who said we are reorganizing our Department of War around the NDAA, National Defense Authorization Act, which says that we have to prepare for a two-front war against Russia and China, aiming to secure the Western Hemisphere.  That's like the biggest signal to the Russians and Chinese, "Hey man, we don't want to fight a World War. We're not interested, but we are going to go after all the cartels, and so any agents you have in organized crime on our side of the planet, they're all going to die.  I don't know if they're working for you or not.  A podcast with Matt Eric Matt kept explaining to everybody about real power of the old architecture of the city of London the old Banks is that they control the organized crime around the world.  Why does the Russian mob not live in Moscow.  Why are they in the city of London?  Because if they went back to Moscow they'd all be killed.  Why are the Chinese Triads in Hong-couver?  [Funny]  because if they went back to Beijing they'd all be killed.  Just because they're Chinese Triads doesn't necessarily mean they're CCP.  The Russian mobs doesn't mean they work for the FSB.  That's the thing you have to disaggregate in your heads. They mostly work for Europe, for the old money of Europe.  That's who's moving the drugs, and the children, and the 15-year-old girls, and all the rest of it.  That's what Trump is going after so what he is saying to the Russians in Chinese hey man if we find these people how about we send them back so that you can kill them?

FROM INSIDE DC If Senator Schumer goes forward with this shut down, OMB Director Russ Vought may come to be known as the "Grim Reaper of Government." I am told his staff worked through the weekend identifying who/where cuts would happen first. The President's men are going to take full advantage of the opportunity to save the American people massive amounts of money by terminating otherwise untouchable bureaucrats from the government. Furthermore, there are many programs that will be put on hold during the shutdown that the administration currently doesn't have the ability to make changes to. However, if a shutdown occurs, once the shutdown ends, the President's staff has full decision making over staffing of essential employees for those programs once business resumes.

The situation was described to me as a "bloodbath for the bureaucracy."

We like to call them Davos where I come from.  They get together every year in Davos, Switzerland,  the Bilderberg Group, and all the rotten nonsense.  You can pick your conspiracy theory of choice to fit the model, but they are the Old Colonial powers of Europe.  They have vast sums of money in banks you've never heard of, and they control our governments.  They control the governments of Europe. They control the government of the United States.  They control the government of Israel.  They control the government of Iran.  They controlled, they tried to control the governments of Russia, China, and everybody else. Anybody who tries to get out from underneath them gets the hammer.  And much of our history of the world and our own history here in the US, and even our monetary history as we've discussed today relative to bitcoin, the fed, and everything else, isn't really what you might think it actually is.  Their control system is our dollar out there in the world.  The offshore dollar system is, as  Crystal pointed out, is 20 times the domestic dollar market.  Because of that, we've never really been free here in America of our old Colonial Masters that we supposedly fought a war of independence from in 1776 through 1781.  They controlled our markets through trade imbalances, through and eventually through them giving us their Central Bank model.  We were the Iran, for lack of a better term, in 1913.  If you've heard the idea that the only reason we're going after Iran is because they don't have a central bank, that's the  "Rothschild's control."  

This is the landscape.  So who's out at the table right now?  It is Trump and the sovereigntists in America, some of whom are our greatest enemies here in this room.  That would be some of the major banks, the DOD, even parts of the intelligence departments, and especially the Federal Reserve because they're the ones who actually have the power to fight the people that we're actually trying to win our independence from.  If you accept that premise, and that is a big premise to accept, because I was almost like almost every bitcoiner you've ever met, "The hell with the Fed. They're evil."  But what if they're the victim and not the villain?  What if also once we understand that they've been the victim, they're also the mechanism by which to become the hero?  Hero > victim > villain is the essential triad of all narratives.  Only viewing players at the table through one of those lenses leaves you with an incomplete picture.  So from everybody's perspective they are always the hero of their own story, and ultimately they can be the villain on the other side and they can always be the victim of somebody else.  So what if the Fed is, or has been a captured pawn since after World War II and the rise of the euro dollar market setting the cost of capital for the United States?  And what if what Trump is actually doing with tariffs and this and everything he's trying to do and bringing Bitcoin on board and stable coins and everything else, what if all of that is to reverse the flow of capital as opposed to having the money go out and have us pay interest on debt, have it all come back and stay here?

22:55. What's important is what I've been saying for a couple of weeks now that, certainly since Beijing, and people have been asking me why is Trump putting secondary sanctions on India, and why is he driving the Indians into the arms of the Russians and the Chinese?  I'm like because he's not trying to drive them into the BRICs, he's trying to drive them away from the Brits.  The goal is not BRICs. What matters now because Brazil has been taken over; they ended up putting Bolsonaro in jail.  The thing doesn't matter.  What matters is the ARC, America, Russia, China.  That arc around the Pacific Ocean that Alex and I first talked about.  They're reframing the entire world last year, and India is a little subscript "i" because India, sorry, isn't a world power.  They larp [pretend] as a world power because they have a lot of population and have deep ties to the British. Everybody is trying to meme the Indians into, no offense to anybody, but into positions of power and use it.  Look at the higher H-1B visa situation in the United States, and look at what's happening with the invasion of Canada.  3.7 million people into Canada this year.  This is a planned operation, and I've been watching the British schmooze India into a position of power now, trying to build them up into an equivalent of Russia China and the United States for years now.  I don't buy a minute of it . . . at all.  And Modi for his part is a similar figure to Erdogan in Turkey, meaning he's an Indian nationalist like Erdogan is it Turkish nationalist and they have their grand dreams of expansion and Neo colonialism they got the Neo Ottoman and turkey they got the Indian equivalent in Mumbai

9:06  All corners were seeing it from the Usual Suspects over at Davos, and the City of London, who are screaming bloody murder that Trump is fixing all of these open wounds and Gordian Knots geopolitically they have around the world. He is rebalancing trade.  He's defending the United States, and they're all like, "You can't do! That that's unfair!  You're the big bully!" and then, you know, like, "Yeah, and . . . ?  That's nice." Like, I'm just channeling Donald Trump at this point, "Yeah, and . . . ?  F*** you.  You stole from us you literally stole elections bought or used our tax money to buy our politicians to prosecute your monetary policy and your fiscal policy and your foreign policy to prop up your failing anti-democratic systems over in Europe, your Colonial adventurism that you are continuing to do France in Sahel region of Africa, Britain in the Middle East, or this one or that one, and on top of everything else, you were you f****** children."  And you were running drugs and you were invading and you were paying people to invade our border to come in and use quislings that you had hired in our government to then pay for these people to the tunes of billions of dollars a year, more than what we were paying the people who built this country, who are currently on Social Security like that it was going on. That's over.  None of this globalist nonsense: IMF is not taking over the global monetary system; the SDR is not coming; the BRICS are never going to issue their own freaking currency.  None of that is coming.  What's coming is the tokenization of assets backed by local treasuries treasury stable coins of some form or another either the United States is going to have their own, or Russia is going to have theirs, China is going to have theirs. Everybody is going to have theirs, and most of the trade is going to be denominated, the receipts are all going to be paid in dollars and we're going to wrap treasuries in Stablecoins and we're going to transmit all that along public blockchains and the central banks are all going to be destroyed, or they're going to have to get with the program, and that includes our Federal Reserve.  So that's what's happening.  Like all of that old shit is so 2015, and it is still out there in the zeitgeist muddying up the conversation space.  And worse than that, it's actually wrong for the United States to defend itself after having been hollowed out for the last 80 years of everybody literally pulling a piece off the corpse.  Like we're not dead.  You just thought we were dead because we were playing dead.  I don't know because you are anesthetized us?  Do I have to extend the metaphor?  Then I got news for you, then our livers kicked in and the anesthesia wore off and we're like, "What the f*** did this . . . how the fuck did this happen? Yeah, no."  How about no.  We are not going to war with Russia, we're not doing this.  We're not going to war for Israel in Iran.  We're not doing any of this stuff, and you all work for us again.  But this time you're going to work for the United States that's not interested in being the global hegemon because that's a British game.  That's a Dutch game.  That's a Belgian/Luxembourg game.

But it seems that they're going to start official hearings on freedom of speech and censorship in the UK.  This is going to be, I think, an important story because the censorship, the repression, in the UK is off the charts.  --Alex Krainer

In a period of 130 years, during which the British were in control of India, India endured 33 major famines, and then since the British left India, not a single one since 1947.   --Alex Krainer

Because what's happening now is the weaponization of populations, the weaponization of new migrants as a way of assaulting and destroying British culture, English culture, indigenous culture.  --Crypto Rich

The whole thing is a complete and other s*** show, and it drives me up a wall.  It's insane.  This is what we're talking about when Susan [Kokinda] invokes the British system.  This is what she's talking about.  --Tom Luongo

What you described at the beginning in terms of the increasing austerity in terms of the British population itself, this is the nature of a parasitical system of a parasitical imperial system. When it loses its ability to loot elsewhere, then it's going to have to turn more and more and more towards its own population in order to extract what it needs to continue to feed the financial Empire.  --Susan Kokinda

8:18.  People want hysterical and I thought how strange is that why is this why are they Brits so hysterical about this when you know they always consistently pretend that they're the junior partners and that they follow along and that they follow along and all these stupid misadventures that the Americans drag them into.  And so you would expect that when the Americans announce that they're going to withdraw from Afghanistan that the Brits would be relieved, like "enough of that disaster." No they were insane.  They started giving all these speeches in Parliament insulting the United States.  Dominic Raab, who was the foreign minister, he was "Oh, the Americans, you know, we had to drag them into World War I kicking and screaming and they turned up way late for World War II, and now they're cutting and running in Afghanistan."

China, the United States, and Russia are going to be not friends but not enemies either.  They're going to remake the world.  There's going to be a kind of Yalta 2. The goal is to end the friction and the toll booth system of wealth extraction, for lack of a better term, "sand in the gears," of the global financial system where everything has to go through London and Europe.  Europe has to be brought low.  They have to put all of their unearned wealth on the table to rebuild Europe when the ECB attempts to do this big rug pull of stealing their savings through the SIU or whatever they have planned and starve the European people. I've been calling for the dissolution of the EU for years, but I think I finally see a series of events here.  This is the way the world has to be viewed it has to be viewed in terms of the great game.

and notice how Trump is not doing anything about this.  I made the point the other day and I will make it again.  Trump controls Israeli politics now.

I'm disappointed in Iran.  They turned out to be bluffing the entire time.  Maybe I'm going to be wrong about that, but as of right now the facts on the ground state pretty clearly that Iran was a paper tiger.  --Tom Luongo

7:40.  And my position is very clear now. Iran never gained a nuclear weapon because they never wanted to gain a nuclear weapon but not for the reasons that Alex and everybody else have been talking about, the fatwa, no, it has nothing to do with that at all.  It's clear that these guys are in bed with freaking GCHQ on both sides. It's the search for the nuclear weapon.  It's the striving for it that is the casus belli, not the actual nuclear weapon.  If they wanted to make a nuclear weapon, they would have done so 20 years ago.  Hell, f*cking North Korean made one.  And if the Russians wanted them to have a nuclear weapon, they would have had one.  If the Chinese wanted them to have a nuclear weapon, they would have had one.  My logic here is not wrong.  My logic here just comes to a different conclusion than your logic, and we're going to find out who's logic is correct, and there's no amount of brow beating me into submission on this.  Because at the end of the day, I understand the strategy of bitches like Christine Lagarde and Andrew Bailey and all the rest of them, and Tony Blair and Benjamin Netanyahu.  The goal is chaos.  Of course, they want regime change in Iran.  Of course, it's playing out like a certain freaking script, and notice how Trump is not doing anything about this.  I made the point the other day and I will make it again.  Trump controls Israeli politics now. The British are trying to resurrect, you know, Reza Pahlavi.  It's not working.  The Russians are going after the NGOs in all of the -stans.  They are arresting people.  Aliyev in Azerbaijan is trying to prop up his failing regime.  He's been caught with his hands in the cookie jar, helping Israel attack Iran from the north, and betray Russia at the same time.  He knows he's in trouble.  

After all of the drama on the slack server for the last couple of days, again I think it's funny that everybody thought I would be upset about this, "Don't tell Tom."  I don't give a s***.  I hope you all found your soulmates being juiceburgs together it's Grand I always want people to find there in the world and if you're not part of mine it's great I don't want you to be in that in this club.  

11:27.  This is my position because I'm trying to end this nightmare.  We have been blackmailed by these evil freaking people for 85 years, 80 years, since the end of World War II, the Cold War, Cold War Redux, the Lost 90s in Russia, all of it.  It's all Downstream of this when you stop to really do the math about how much money is spent trying to deal with minimizing the threat and of nuclear weapon proliferation, and the amount of money that's spent on defense and espionage and cloak-and-dagger stuff, all of it, the Congressional hearings, and the lost wages, all of it, the SG&A costs, [Selling, General, & Administrative Costs] and every corporation in the world.  It's trillions upon trillions upon trillions of dollars every year.  And who does that serve?  Level up and see through the b*******.  The way to end all this is to start cleaving Gordian knots.  Your move, or you get a B2 up your ass.  Your move, or we fly in some F-22s.  Your move.  If you want to know why I have anger in my voice, I'm disappointed in Iran.  They turned out to be bluffing the entire time.  Maybe I'm going to be wrong about that, but as of right now the facts on the ground state pretty clearly that Iran was a paper tiger.  That's what we have and I've been pretty clear, I don't like Israel.  I'm trying not to use the word "hate" because I don't want hate to be the operative means by which I do analysis because that's a bad way to do analysis . . .  because you know that whole anger-fear-aggression path that leads to the dark side, like it's real, folks.  Hate makes you powerful, like yeah.  I'm just not playing that game.  So I want Israel to pay for their crimes, all of them, including the ones where they got us involved and s*** that poured moral stain all over me because I wound up paying for it.  I'm angry about that.  I really wanted to Iran to really knock their freaking teeth in.  Really did. A little angry about that.  A little sad, sad that I was actually sucked into that b******* for a few years.  That being said, they hit them hard enough and hit us hard enough because of the perilous state that our actual military supply lines are in and our ammunition supply lines are in, which has a nugget of truth to it, which is not . . . not untrue that we can't sustain that war for that long.  But we can sustain it longer, long enough to get rid of the assholes who were "fighting the good fight of the resistance." I love Star Wars but it's a bad metaphor for this.  We're not the Empire, they're not the Rebellion or the resistance.  That's not the way this works. Okay so let all that go and let's move forward and say you know what I don't want to be blackmailed by evil f****** shitbags anymore you guys want to fight amongst yourselves for resources you want to text us for military's and all that great great you developed weapons now where you only have to fight each other we're back to where the wars are fought by the King's armies.  And only the king's armies need to be targeted, and the civilians can be left alone.  You know, gentlemanly warfare.  Lob ballistic missiles and drones at each other's ammo dumps and weapons development sites and research departments and Skunk Works and all the rest of it and their barracks.  You sign up for the military, your life is forfeit.  My dad was NYPD.  I never once was under any illusions about the fact that my dad had to put himself In harm's way in order to protect and serve.  And I found it offensive the older I got here in the United States, as time went on, we sat here protecting cops.  F*** protecting cops. Cops are forfeit in service of protecting and serving civilians.  If you've read this month's newsletter I think you understand my perspective on this if you haven't read this month's newsletter maybe consider spending an extra $7 a month on it, or $8 bucks, whatever it is. 

17:50.  I've just come into a different state of mind about all of these things watching this play itself out brought a lot of clarity I'm tired of watching the Vorlons in the Shadows manipulate us into fighting their f****** wars for them.  I want a new way even for people like us.

TOM LUONGO: What do all of these regions have in common? Unbelievable natural resource wealth. Europe has no collateral. I learned that from Alex Krainer.

"That model has made perfect sense to explaining how everybody is acting.

Europe's only path forward is to plunder Canada. THAT'S WHY THEY HATE ALBERTA.

That's why Ottawa hates Alberta. That's why Mark Carney is Prime Minister and that's what has to end."

It's very obvious at this point, I think, that Trump is, that Trump, Putin, and to a lesser extent, I believe Xi, but I'm not quite, I'm still a little on the fence about this, they understand who the real enemy is, and the real enemy is Continental Europe, and it's the old banking interests of Old Colonial Europe that need to be destroyed, and that would include the City of London, not Britain, the City of London, the square mile.  That's very important.  That includes the Vatican, I hate to say it.  And the goal is, if you look at everything that's happening, just look at all the little hot spots around the world and the way that things are shaping up, they are trying to bottle up the old Pirates of colonial Europe so that they have no places to plunder.  So they've lost Russia.  They're losing the Middle East. Trump said very nice things about Erdogan about Turkey taking Syria, which blocks Israel from going to war with Iran.  The French have lost the Sahel region of Africa.  That's all gone.  The United States?  Nope, we are changing the way we do business.  We're not going to allow Janet Yellen to spend us into debtors prison, and everything else. The United States is secured.  What do all of these regions have in common?  Unbelievable natural resource wealth. Europe has no collateral.  I learned that from Alex Krainer.  And since then, that model has made perfect sense to explaining how everybody is acting.  Europe's only path forward is to plunder Canada.  That's why they hate Alberta, [known for its oil reserves.] That's why Ottawa hates Alberta.  That's why Mark Carney is prime minister, and that's what has to end. When I read the geopolitical game board, folks, and I'm playing Donald Trump's faction, that's how I'm taking out all of y'all.

EM Burlingame

PREVIEW

Continental Europeans control the Bank of England.  They have since its creation.

It's always about the theft of the commons, and how do you financialize them use those as collateral.  It's a backdoor way of going around the Brexit Referendum.

It's Continental wealth and power using it ownership of parliamentarians in the Parliament. 

For all intents and purposes the city of London has been the headquarters for the Dutch East Indian company for 360 years.  

What was the Marshall Plan?  Who paid for that?  Oh, and by the way, 7% of that had to be immediately paid to MI6 and the CIA.  That's actually in the Marshall Plan documentation.  Our history about our people and time at all has been spied this occupying force, then retold and retold and retold, so that we don't really know our own history, our own story, our own reality.  

They believe that they have the absolute right to enslave everybody to serve them do you think that we actually defeated the slave mind no we just force them to be more sophisticated more clever.

The English are a bloody brilliant people.  We are a wonderful people we are a civilization.  Let's just remember that.  Let's get back to that.  If we can get back to that, it's a couple simple principles.  You just sum them up very nicely.

TRANSCRIPT

Rich opens with a reference to a podcast EM did with Luongo, Episode #216: EM Burlingame and How to Kill the Financial Kill Chain of Europe, May 1, 2025. 

TOM LUONGO: since Cornwallis surrendered at Yorktown, 1781, we have never really had financial independence in the United States, and if you don't have financial independence you don't really have political independence either.

Tom Luongo and Caitlin Long explore the significant financial shifts in the US monetary system, including the transition from LIBOR to SOFR, the role of stablecoins, and the potential decoupling of the US financial system from European control. https://t.co/7aB98UUPrQ

Find the full transcript here. 

My transcript below starts where Tom says, "Oh, wow."

2:45. Donald Trump is a tempting the first real decoupling of the American financial system, broaden that as wide as you want, from the old Colonial European system if you look over the history of the United States has it pertains to money since our conception, since Cornwallis surrendered at Yorktown, 1781, we have never really had financial independence in the United States, and if you don't have financial independence you don't really have political independence either.  How do you feel about the American Revolution?  Since the American Revolution was declared and we are still fighting the vestiges of that system over the course of the past few years, the advent of SOFR, secured overnight financing rate, and the true end of LIBOR [ London Inter-Bank Offered Rate] on March 31st because LIBOR ended on September 30th the 6th month synthetic Library contract that were floating around out there they didn't mature until March 31st.

4:10. LONG.  Can I pause you there and explain the difference between SOFR and LIBOR, and why that means the US is taking power back from London?

4:19.  Sure because the Libor rate is an unsecured rate, decided upon by 18 City of London Banks, only one of which represents American interests in many people's parlance.  And JP Morgan does not represent America's interest at all.  It's only that JP Morgan's London office, their subsidiary, that sat on the board of LIBOR. The secured overnight financing rate . . . LIBOR was a way to price offshore dollars without ever really having to post collateral because you could just pass LIBOR contracts, rehypothecate the maximum themselves, and we had this massive growth the shadow banking system and the euro dollar market over the last 60 or 70 year. . . 

5:03.  Okay let me pause you there.  For people who are just starting to listen to this for the first time and underscore that meant that London Banks set the most important interest rate in US dollar markets . . .

5:15.  . . . and which then would be the most important markets in the world.  So now that we have that established in the LIBOR system was codified in 1984 when LIBOR was unofficially established as the US dollar rate around the world, interestingly enough we had the G5 get together 1985 to create the Plaza Accord so now read currency markets.  That system was really in play all the way up until the global financial crisis of 2008 and that's when the system started to break, really broke, and then, since then years after that around 2011 when the central banks all got together and created swap lines amongst all the major G7 Banks, the Bank of Japan, the Bank of England the Fed, the ECB, they all got together and coordinated monetary policy, and that's actually what broke the last gold bull market.  If you remember it was at that moment in time . That gold peaked and then there was the announcement the coordination of Central Bank policy we were dealing with the potential Greg's it at the time Germany leaving the euro at the time that stabilized markets by the time we got into October November of that year and then that system

TOM LUONGO: They're going to carve the world back up and what Europe is not happy about, because they know what's coming, is that Russia is going to wind up being the guarantor over Europe

So spoke with @TFL1728 on Friday. And let me say, mind-blown (again) and extremely entertaining. Thanks, brother. All who watch, you are getting a treat. My favorite clip and full interview below: https://t.co/jbhpziW946 pic.twitter.com/zUSM8BjUYp

It'll start with Eastern Europe but by the time they're done with the sovereign . . . with us engendering a sovereign debt crisis in Europe, stripping them of their gold, stripping the Bank of England of all its leverage, stripping the city of London of its Forex business and its Insurance business, which is what is coming you can see it and you know exactly what I'm getting at.  They are not kidding. 

2:02.  Taking a wrecking ball to Europe and Davos.

2:10.  The wrecking ball that I had in my head after the election, coming into the election, and then after the election, I have a couple of patrons who are close to the transition team, specifically the Office of Management Budget, 1970, with the plan was going to be, my commentary came from that, and that's all turned out to be true. 

4:00.  The era of consensus politics is over, and that now we've moved back into the world of power politics.
