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?
