 Greetings, everyone. And welcome to progressive discussions. I'm your host, James P. Madonna. I've been doing this since 2007. And welcome to our Easter 2023 weekend special show. Or should I say Happy Ishtar, the origins of Easter, connected, pertaining to the fertility goddess, Ishtar, paganism, you know, the rabbit, the Easter eggs, it's all connected to the fertility goddess. Happy Ishtar. So I hope everyone has great plans this weekend to spend quality time with family, loved ones, which are not necessarily the same thing. Some people have loved ones that are really not their relatives. Well, all the pain in the asses that I was related to, they're all deceased. So there's just one pain in the ass, but I'm going to be at my sister's house for the weekend, sister and brother-in-law. But anyway, yeah, all the pain in the asses are deceased. The ones that ask you irritating questions, nosy relatives, they don't ask you how you're doing, how you're feeling. They want to know, are you working yet? Are you working? Are you working? Yeah, they just want to talk about fucking work, gainful employment. They don't talk about hobbies or interests. They don't talk about anything pleasant because they didn't have any lives. The older generation folks, all they had is their job. All they thought about is money. They give money, they come home, they have dinner, they sit in front of the television and stuff their face with snacks and that was it. And then repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat. And they used to brag, oh, I get a lot of overtime. I'm happy about that. I get a lot of overtime, overtime. Yeah, they don't realize with all that overtime, you pay more taxes. So it doesn't pay. The overtime does not pay anymore. Here is my, here is my illustrious, I'm a fucking Apple corporation safari. He'll fix it. It just takes, sometimes it takes a little while. Yeah, he has an iPhone and they force it when you go live stream, they force you to use safari. And safari is not compatible. Yeah, safari is not compatible with live streaming. Let's see if it works now. Hey, oh, you know, the usual beginning fun. Okay, hold on. Yeah, the usual is right. Hello. Hello. Hello. Oh, we're okay now. We're okay now. Okay, this is my right hand man, my co-host, Mick Vaughn Raven from Chicago, Illinois, and they just selected a new mayor, but it wasn't the mayor that the intelligent Chicagoans really wanted. You know, the ones that have all their brain cells firing like a Ferrari sports car like Mick Vaughn Raven. You know, they have the, I guess the politically correct mayor now. It's a dumpster fire. It's just like the last one liar, Lori Lightfoot, this guy's going to be an idiot and so on and so on. Yeah, I'm very surprised at Bernie Sanders. I mean, I have to call him like I see him. Sometimes he really shows his raisin balls and he showed it again by talking about defunding the Chicago PD, the Chicago police, defund the police, defund the police, and spend the money towards social programs. Okay, that sounds fine and dandy, but who's going to fight all the violent crime in Chicago? Yeah, it's a farce and this candidate was quoted as saying defund the police whereas Paul Vallis said we need a bigger police presence and, you know, the safety of the city people, of those that voted for him, they're going to find out the hard way. I don't get to vote because I'm in the suburbs, but I lived in Chicago, the city for nine years and they go to Chicago all the time. So it's got plenty of effect on me and I'm highly disappointed, but I hate to say it nowadays. I'm not that surprised. I mean, the way everything is going with political correctness and wokeness and all this shit and giving special treatment, not being afraid to say no to certain lobbying groups, you know, it's really, not only is it foolish, it's really dangerous. And it's just downright brain cell deficient to make a statement like that, especially for Bernie Sanders. Unless he's pandering to the, to the, the minority vote and the Black Lives Matter and the woke voters and that maybe he's got something cooking in 2024 or he's pandering for most, but you don't say to a city where a high crime rate, a high homicide rate, defund the police, defund the police and give it all to social programs. What does he think the low income people in Chicago are going to do with all those social programs? They're going to buy drugs or alcohol, alcohol, drugs and booze. You know, and it's not going to do a damn thing for the crime rate. It's not a damn thing. No, sir. No, sir. And, you know, right now we're, we're living in some rarefied times of political. Oh, God. Hold on. This is an extension of bad political politics. Our politics is a slew and stew of shite. I mean, it's always fling poo at the other guy, but not face reality. I'll blame you. You blame me. Let's not address what's really going on in the room. Whether it's in the city of Chicago or in the White House. You know, and then this thing with Trump's arraignment, everyone's using it, pretending he's like Jesus and he's being persecuted. He's, you know, he's more like Satan than anyone. Yeah, the antichrist. I mean, he did some good things in his presidency. I won't deny that. But, you know, trying to become a dictator and overthrow the government's not one of them. I mean, he has, he has so many skeletons in his closet. You know, he's getting his comeuppance. He's broke the law. He's been a scoff law his whole life. And he's, this is the tip of the iceberg when they get him for January 6 and for, you know, Georgia. Yeah, he's, he's in real deep shit, regardless of what anyone thinks. But the 34 charges don't even involve Georgia and Jen. I know. So he's got a litany of, of, of violations that are going to take him down. And it's really going to happen because he really did the stuff. It's real. It's not made up. You know, and those, oh, the votes were countered. No, it's all been, it's been on track. And now it's, he's got to pay the piper. Yeah. And his father was no angel. He was a slumlord and a conniver. Just like him. And, and, you know, Donald Trump learned from the best. He learned from his own man. And he was also a big time racist. Oh yeah. Head of the Klan in the New York. Yeah. Exactly. Exactly. So, um, I mean, he, he's so crooked that they would have to screw him into his grave. They couldn't. Like a corkscrew. They couldn't. I mean, everything, you know, like the old saying, if it, if it sounds, walks and, and, and looks like a duck, you know, I mean, everything is so obvious today that you don't need to have a high IQ to understand and notice what's going on. Criminal behavior is recognizable when it's flaunted right in front of you scoff laws and, you know, the law, the rule of man, law of man is ignored and just thrown by the wayside. It's really strange that the Republican party would embrace that. They were always the, the law and order party, not anymore. This is not your father's Republican party. And they, and they're teaching American public as well as young people. They're teaching them that selfishness is a virtue. All of a sudden selfishness. I think I am ran started that self interests and being for yourself only. Hey, do me a favor, talk a little bit about what you had put up here in New Jersey. I'm not from the area. So I wasn't aware of this. Okay. This I just learned today. New Jersey legal weed dispensaries pay fines for sliding medical marijuana patients. That's not, that's like kicking the, the, the ill and the poor when they're down. Yeah. April 1st, 2023, it came out. Let's see what this is about. I guess that's one dispensary. I guess I don't know if they're, if that's aligned to get their, their stash or if they're protesting the botanist. Okay. Long lines and tension at the botanist in Williamstown, the medical and recreational cannabis dispensary paid a $5,000 fine for making patients wait to buy their medicine. What deliberately making them wait, I guess. Let's see. Shortly after the legal weed market opened 11 months ago, the cannabis regulatory commission cited five cannabis operators to send cure relief, Toronto, GTI and acreage for selling to the public during times reserved for registered patients. No, greedy. Yeah, they were. Yeah. Greed. So that's a, that's it. So registered patients had, I assume appointments to pick up their medical marijuana and yes. And they, they just waited for the highest bidder. I assume. You know, a lot of people instead of turning to opioids are using medical marijuana and it's the right thing. It's not addictive. It's, it helps them. I know, I know people that use it medically and it's just one of the great, you know, it's God made. It's, it's grown on earth. And I mean, I, I, I played the video of Jesse Ventura telling the story about his wife having very severe seizures. And he, at the time he had to go, he had to go to Colorado to get her to be able to use the extract, the drops under her tongue a few times a day. And ever since she tried the cannabis extract, she hasn't had a seizure. He said that medical doctors put her on several different drugs for her seizures and nothing worked. Nothing worked. And then he heard about marijuana, about cannabis extract and it worked. And she hasn't had a seizure since and, and since she put the first drops under her tongue. Yeah, that's a miracle thing. Marijuana is a miracle plant really is so many different versatile, useful, helpful things. Well, the whole, the whole species, the hemp plant is the most, the biggest cash crop known to man. And it has, it is so versatile and has so many positive purposes that it is literally, I get one of God's prize plants. I think it is. They should have medical, they should have marijuana celebrations. You really should. It should be a marijuana parade. Yeah. And marijuana should be used in religious ceremonies, not just wine. I really, I believe, maybe I'm getting Rastafari in here. What can I say? Not the, not just wine and frankincense and myrrh incense. You know, like when the priest has. Yeah, there should be some weed in there, man, with that frankincense. When he's got the chain with the little, little lantern on the end and the smoke coming out of it and he's going, it should be, it should be, it should be, it should be. Yeah. I saw an alarming headline. I just want to change gears for a second. That GOP is trying to find a way to expel three Democratic senators, impeach them and get them out. Have you seen that? Yeah. What's there? What is the problem? I mean, how can they get that done? That's a witch hunt. And is that so they can control more of the Senate? They, they, they, they don't, I don't think fair play is part of their vocabulary. No. They play dirty. And they just care about their agenda of greed and corruption through greed and corruption, you know, combination. Their agenda is number one with them. They don't care about really the American people, the voters. They can care less about the American. Yeah. It's inconsequential that, you know, anything good happens to them. Yeah. It's like, it's pure selfishness. That's what it seems like to me. It's like, they don't care about the voters that put them in office. The fools, you know, like, like Mitch McConnell, what is it? Wolf County, Kentucky, these, these, these red, they're living in shacks and they're, and they keep re-electing Mitch McConnell. He does nothing for them. Because it does nothing for them. Republicans never worked for the poor and the middle class. No. And why? Because they keep repeating the same thing. Oh, Democrats are baby killers. Oh, abortion. So they're religious cults, which they belong to. And they love, they love the corporate world. That's all like, that is, that's their world. Their loyalty is to the fat cats that line. Yeah. The top 1%, the allergy. They run this country. Really. I mean, like Jesse Ventura was right. A politician is not obligated to meet with lobbyists. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. A politician is not obligated to meet with lobbyists. And I have Right wing friends that are going off on me because I'm a Biden supporter saying all the economy and everything. It's all the president's fault. Look when Donald was a president that was all fine and well, the president doesn't, he's. An economist. You know, he doesn't run the economy, he doesn't, give out rates and take points away. Under Trump. He gave so many breaks that now we're paying for all what he did do it for his friends You know, there's always a fallout when one presidency does well the other one usually pays for it Yeah, look what happened when GW Bush took over for Bill Clinton Bill Clinton had a surplus and GW Bush with Dick Cheney Squandered it put those put those Unnecessary wars on a credit card and and and forget it and put the country in very deep debt And Halliburton profited both of them very much. There's a very profitable war for those two Albert and and and then Barack Obama inherited that mess and They fought him tooth and nail They just because he was black and he was he was half black. He was mixed race Yeah, his mother is mother's Irish. His mother was Irish and But the point is Yeah, and then they were claiming he was born in Kenya and all this nonsense The point is that even Trump before he ever ran for President the presidency was on this tangent about In search of Barack Obama's real birth certificate, but they just don't want anyone To Anyone that is to the left of where they are which is fascism They don't want anyone who's moderate or progressive To be elected to anything not even dork that you Me that's just say did you good morning? Masumi from Japan. Good morning, my dear. It is a it is now. I believe nine twenty two A.m. Friday in the Tokyo area. So good morning to you Masumi. All right Thank you for stopping by Did you did you see Clarence Thomas is in the hot seat for all of his Accepting lavish gifts and such. I knew he was a weasel all along and his wife's a POS. Oh My god, you mean I we're talking about a Supreme Court justice taking Take taking bribes. Yes. Yes, lots of them lots not a little bit a lifetime full Hey, when the hell is Joe Biden gonna gonna stack the Supreme Court with I don't know he and when is he gonna legalize marijuana federally come on Joe Is he going to expunge the student loan debt? With the executive order That's that's the only way and you know the only time he did the last time he did executive orders it was After he got inaugurated and yes, yes He had a whole bunch of them that he did and then he stopped And I see this headline Saudi Arabia cuts ties with the US for economic independence So they are pretend allies Saudis behind 9 11 Mastermind fuckers. Yeah, most of them Most of them were Saudis. They were sponsored by the Saudi state I didn't know they weren't independent. So that mean what they're gonna jack up oil prices even more OPEC What's going on is? Saudi Arabia Russia China and you know, whatever countries consider themselves Adversaries of the United States. They're They're not they don't want to deal with the US dollar anymore They want to deal with the Chinese one. Oh, God. No, which is why spell why you a and And let's see what we got here good riddance to bad rubbish. They're evil anyway Saudi Arabia aims to adopt an economic strategy independent of the United States Due to declining relations during the Biden administration. Yeah, because Joe Biden Tells it like it is and he probably told the Prince off Yeah, Saudi's what they're asked kiss the Prince does, you know, they're still into the Royals and all that bullshit Like they're better than you because they've got royal blood. I got news for you. You're not better than anyone Yes, they are very much so Saudis they murder so many people that when they handed that reporter back to Trump and he didn't even question it she was How about that that guy for the Wall Street Journal that's been detained in Russia? Well, first of all, don't go to Russia ever anyone unless you're Edward Snowden or Or Any of these celebrities that seem to love him so much Putin? Oh, Edward Snowden is is a hero and And a traitor at the same time at the same time now now Julian Assange Assange is he he helped Donald Trump like that. Oh, yeah, he got paid He was a for hire and now what he did, you know, I don't believe he's innocent in any way He took money to sway an election and he did he did help Okay, let's see what we got here The country and the OPEC plus group have announced a cut in oil production of around 1.6 million barrels per day to achieve Market stability and a surprising move Saudi Arabia and the OPEC Plus group of producers have announced a cut in oil production of a pot. You just said that Why did they repeat the same fucking thing while the move is aimed at achieving market stability according to a recent report to scam Saudi Arabia's is attempting to adopt an economic strategy Independent of the United States. Okay, but now they're showing the true colors Unexpected cut in oil production That's a crock of shit right there. They're trying to so get gas will be ten dollars a gallon or something They're the motherfuckers because Joe Biden probably told them what they really are They're trying to put the squeeze play on the United States all the time Because they know They want their ass kissed because the Royals and they need their ass kicked. Yeah You damn right Saudi Arabia is growing ties with China. That doesn't surprise me There's something some evil going on in the world when China is talking to Russia. They were never allies ever Yeah, all of a sudden their buddies World War two China and Russia were not allies So why now from what from what I'm reading here it Oh India wants in on it too. Oh, man, that's not good They they they're not they're not nice to Americans anyway if you go in there in their quickie marks, they're Well, they got to know which side of the the bread is buttered in It's not through Saudi and Russia Russia Russia will use any number of countries Russia is very upset that Finland's joined NATO. He's practically shitting himself now They did join NATO. Oh, yeah, they're going to it's been announced. They're joining Finland because it's a border country with with us Poland Poland is a border country NATO is going to be surrounding Russia very soon. So it it appears instead of me Oh It's not a long article, but I will summarize everything and say that it seems like all of the adversaries, you know the rogue countries with Dictatorships and you know that in monarchs monarchy Monarchies that don't get along with the United States. They they're all they all seem to be getting in cahoots with Saudi Arabia and Yes, the photo of the prince The monarch prince. Yeah, he's a piece of shit. Yeah, he does not value human life at all No, not at all It's like Putin. He does not value human life at all And I think Putin's finding out I'm sorry, what James Yo, I am agreed Okay, um, yeah, Putin's finding out that the Russians really don't want to fight his war You know, many of the soldiers are defecting and they don't want to die They didn't they wanted they didn't want this war only he did and his his I his Uh, plan to reclaim anything that you used to be the USSR is failing He will not succeed in that he will be out of office At the end of this war. I believe he's gone Maybe even by the you know their own hand They might even kill him because of what he's done to the country. Oh, yeah, russia The russian oligarchs have lost their fortunes, uh, uh, they were confiscated by the united states, uh Government, you know the they're they're probably furious that Putin Vladimir Putin Exactly You know, it's sad that in this day and age that we're we're talking about wars when we thought wars would have been abolished by now Yeah, like, uh, china is obsessed With controlling the south china sea uh, even if it means Going into international waters and and private waters of other other countries like the philippines and and Malaysia and vietnam and singapore and thailand, but they there it looks like they they're trying to It looks like they have ambition to to build an empire Oh, yeah, like like This, uh, president chi is um They had a phony election and he won again. Gee, what a surprise. Yeah, how come i'm not surprised at that? How it reminds me of the time this very corrupt columbian president Uh, when i was married to my ex he was uh, he ran for reelection and there was this His opponent was like a real honest nice guy and everything and And he was as crooked as they come and the election results is that the crook Won by a landslide in every in every section of columbia He won by that's when the other results taped to the bottom of the belt and they just reached down and pulled it up There it is Yeah, and he's he he represents uh, he was very Chummy with American republicans and it doesn't surprise me because he was the type where There really was no middle class there. It was only the very poor and the rich and uh, um, you know You have to pay out of part just like the philippines. You have to pay out of pocket for everything And if you get sick and you don't have insurance and you don't have money You'll die they allow you to die quietly outside of the hospital You know, there's no Who who is this economist you put on the screen? Is he part of the chinese government or he's um, he's talking about this Talking about the destruction of our economy had a traffic Uh collapse of the um american currency I don't believe that it never has collapsed ever. It's never going to You should go back to a gold. What do you think gold base stand doing? yeah robert Kayo kayo sake warns us dollar will return as a tidal wave of toilet paper on america Yeah, this is what i have to say to him Ha Fuck you US dollar.

This is emergency podcast number three And I want to thank my friend andy schekman for bringing me personally up to speed Because I knew something was going wrong all these years But I had no I did I did I lost the macro. I didn't get the bigger picture of it So this is the emergency broadcast number three number one was andy's warning about What jennet yellen who was a secretary of treasury? But she was also the head of the federal reserve bank. So there's a little conflict of interest there But how she was warning people saying that jennet yellen herself The fdic and the federal reserve bank Will determine which banks survive and which ones die So andy called up. He says we got to do emergency podcast number one Number two is what does it mean when japan and mexico want to join the bricks? And the bricks stands for brazil russia india china south africa Saudi arabia and on and on and on But if you have japan and mexico Who are possibly as close to us as canada? Joining the opposing side That's number two and I think is by far the best Financial literacy video I have ever done. So that was number two sandy will please watch that one. It goes in depth And today is number three emergency podcast number three An emergency podcast number three is not for you who are paying attention Emergency podcast number three is be careful for those who are not paying attention In other words, we're about to go into what's called the wily coyote moment Everybody's running along says. Oh, don't worry. The fence got my back. You know, the economy's fine I love this guy biden, you know, and we're americas the greatest in the economy's safe all the And when people crash when this thing crashes it is coming soon It's the people that are not prepared the people who are not watching this Emergency podcast number three haven't watched number two or number one Are the ones you're gonna have to be afraid of this guy's a republican I can tell Yeah Yeah, you know what his emergency podcasts Yeah, yeah, he's uh Yeah, it sounds like he's uh Getting people uh all stirred up shaking the the can of hornets Because he wants people to run and take all their money out of the bank so the banks collapse That's what he's promoting without saying it and uh, you know, he's bashing the biden administration janet yellen and Oh I sent you a link on the chat. There was some Democrats and democrats in tennessee were expelled for their protest against guns two out of three Oh, okay tennessee senate or something i don't know they God forbid anyone would want to have gun control and every Yeah Every day there's a shooting a mass shooting every day in the world every single day You know north carolina wants Everyone to be able to get by firearms without a permit So even the even the mentally ill No, they didn't they didn't say a word about background Checks and and and the mentally ill or anything like that. They just said You know, uh, they were Uh putting down the uh The gun control bill But you know that that the why the democrats that the democrats were pushing and and they um, they somehow prevented that gun bill You know After sandy hook, they should have passed it. I still don't understand Why we haven't passed any gun control laws in this country and that doesn't mean take firearms from people It means reasonable care. It means reasonable background checks Nine out of ten of these shooters have a mental illness record and they still got all the weapons Yeah, I took I took a look at that article The font is small, but I got the gist of it. It's a big article. Uh, yeah, they Fair play is not How they operate And and and I think You think the nra nra is paying them off to uh to be pro gun Yeah, I think so I thought the nra went bankrupt when they were Or was that the gun manufacturer when they were sued for sandy hook I mean when they were screaming that obama was going to take away their guns that never happened Well, that that's the thing this country will never take away people's guns So I think that's a false fear But I don't I don't understand you're a law abiding citizen And you're a normal person Who would pass any background check and and and if you if you're a hunter Um that likes to go out and shoot some Deer and wild boar or whatever and uh and have some wild game in your freezer. There's nothing wrong with that either but if you're a mentally extremist an extremist terror terrorists uh Mentally ill mentally ill, you know You have unstable psychiatric psychiatric problems issues Uh, you're you're mentally unstable. You should not have not even a BB gun Not even not even a bow and arrow Yeah, it's crazy Yeah, I don't understand, you know with with school Grammar school being unsafe. Who who would think Not when I was a kid that was one of the safest places you could be I mean, yeah, but my childhood was stress-free. I mean except for the photo shooters No, we didn't have that the only stress I had was Uh I hated homework. Yeah, me too. And then the surprise quiz and all that bologna Yeah, I mean, um and I hated homework and Uh, we got too many damn books that I had to carry in a fucking book bag You know and uh, it just uh Oh, but before I forget I wanted to bring up something that happened to me on Buck book as I call facebook I was put into a a week long time out with no explanation and then in my feed I started seeing ads with phallic symbols of penises drawn Oh, you showed me in some. Yeah, and why is that okay now if I I just if I had a vagina is being depicted Even if it was natural I'd be up schmitzkrieg They probably banned me for life Uh, you know, and I'd say well, I'm just you know advertising about uh Some care for medical care for vagina I'd be in so much trouble your head had spin, but I reported it. I I've seen it sought again another post I look like a girl was performing oral sex and suppose a woman posted it and I'm like So facebook doesn't really know what it's doing. They're watchers They watch, you know, the wrong thing and then they let everyone else run rough shot Just like they let the russians run rough shot over and during 2016 election as long as they paid for it. They could, you know, put fake news on facebook Exactly So facebook is a corrupt broken piece of shit It's just it's it's it's they're all incompetent. It's like it's a it's a very it's a company run by incompetent people that You wouldn't want a hire to at a starbucks No, and he's gone. He's gone on the cheap, you know cuts here cuts there I I can't I can't remember the last time I saw facebook didn't always have an ad every single time now Every time you open facebook, there's an ad Every single time I'm bombarded with uh Even if I read articles On on the browser on the internet i'm like I I see I see the The ad I see the barrier feed. I see the bait on the hook. I see the The interesting title To the article or the video, but then when I click on it when I go to it There's like a ton of uh, it's like a bait and switch Yes, I can't I can't close out the advertisements Like they want me to subscribe If I want to read the article I have to subscribe to them And then there's a whole and then often And even youtube is doing this now the youtube is brutal The video or the article has does not apply to the title Like the title is supposed to attract your attention to want to watch the video or read the article, right? But but the content Is not related to The title It's not applicable And you're like well, why does the title say this? Yes video the video is about that and and And and you know sometimes there's like a little tidbit of what the title says It's just a bait and switch and facebook should be ashamed it used to be Free flowing and easy to use and you know kind of like a roots project for the people instead Instead of turning to a corporate weapon I don't know. I think it's a really corrupt thing now. You know the bait and switch Is is a very old sleazy Technique uh used by retail for for many decades Yes, and It's underhanded because it's false advertisement Yes, it is and uh They used to do One time there was a sale, you know, this is back in the day when we had to buy Regular mattresses. There was no memory foam Okay, you know the mattresses that were if you have sex it goes squeaky squeaky Okay, they had a sale on These extra firm mattresses Which I like and when I went there They said, uh, oh, we don't have It didn't arrive yet The mattresses didn't arrive yet. We're not sure when they're going to arrive, but I could show you A much better mattress than the one that's on sale Oh, yeah, that's illegal Right. So in other words They are much better mattress Was much more expensive And it was and it was not the sale mattress So I said, well your advertisement Mentioned this mattress When are they arriving? We're not quite sure There's a problem with the shipping, you know, they're tied up somewhere, but you know what? Have a nice day. Goodbye Exactly, you know, it's like, uh, okay now for the Okay I kind of figured they were going to do this and but What I learned about it was very infuriating and um What is that? I'm sorry I bring it up here Okay, you will really dishonest But he they don't mention it at the very beginning though You'll be able to tell your kids about how the us dollar was once the strongest currency in the world And you were there to watch it fall into ruin You'll be able to explain to your kids that it was all self-inflicted how Arrogance greed and bullying led to the collapse We'll get to that part of the story in a minute But first you'll also be able to tell your kids that you were there when they took away paper dollars and coins In favor of a u.s digital currency and you'll be correct because in fewer than 24 hours the united states dollar changes forever Tomorrow the first week of april the federal reserve begins the rollout of their new central bank digital u.s dollar That's right Call the fed now program and it's going to replace your paper currency not overnight But it's moving in that direction and it will move the united states to a cashless society A surveillance state where every transaction will be tracked and cataloged Where as the fed describes it money that's in your account can even expire and become Unusable that's right. Just like that red lobster gift card that you've never used One day you go and try to buy some popcorn shrimp and some cheddar bay biscuits and the gift card doesn't even work anymore Gone you can read how the fed plans to you and that's what Made me furious Um, um, that's pure bullshit. That's what made me extremely extremely furious because that that's that cashless digital money that He explains is is people's hard-earned savings And they're going to put an expiration date On people's hard-earned money that they work for So in other words they're going to force people to spend All of their saved money before it expires which means people will not have a savings anymore because It'll be like a A gift card with an expiration. That's insane. I don't believe that's ever going to happen Are you kidding? It'll be like a revolution Yes money right on the fed's website China's already doing it. We already have a template for it and many u.s. Government museums national parks Historical sites are no longer accepting paper dollars. Many of you have emailed me about this You've tried to go and actually use dollars at different locations. Sorry. We don't accept cash Want to go visit the Wright brothers museum? Don't bring cash. You'll have to use digital currency Want to go to smithsonian? Sorry. No cash. How about mount rainier national park? Sorry. No cash allowed We only accept digital and many american businesses have already gone cashless as well. They'll pretend It's all about convenience. But really, you know, it's all about control the brilliant katharine austin fits recently described What going cashless would do to all of us the reality as the financial system gets more controlling and more invasive It's a little bit like bringing up a corral around us And cbdc's central bank digital currencies and vaccine passports or digital ids Are sort of the last Shutting of the gate It's hard for many people to imagine the risks here because we're so used to living With financial transaction freedom and we don't understand that when this gate closes on us We literally We'll be sitting in a system where the central banks believe that our assets belong to them And they can dictate where we can spend money and what we can spend money on It's frightening and she's 100 correct, but that's only part of the story Fox news. Yeah, okay If you can believe that Now to the elephant in the room and the larger reasons we're seeing the decline of the us dollar But first I decided to go sophisticated for today's video I could have kept it super simple But instead we need to talk about some specific details and you are a very smart audience that will watch this video until the end So we're going to go sophisticated today. Okay, let's do it and for that. Let me tell you a story Let me start here back in 2014 the country of russia annexed the territory of Crimea We're not going to get into why they did it. You're a smart audience You probably already know why they did it But what we're going to do is look at what happened next now the united states and western allies then slapped massive sanctions on russia Then the value of the russian ruble went down But then something remarkable started to happen And this is perhaps the beginning of the end of the us dollar. You can pinpoint the moment Here's what happened is the ruble started to decline Russia was then forced to ramp up production of just about everything that they produce from oil to lithium to silver to uranium For nuclear fuel natural gas They kicked everything into high gear became self-sufficient became the dominant exporter of many of these minerals in every category Want uranium for your nuclear reactors? You're probably going to be buying it from russia In fact, the united states currently buys almost all of its uranium from russia Isn't that funny? They did this because their ruble was going down They needed to produce more oil in order to sell more oil to compensate for the lower prices that it was receiving In u.s. Dollars while the united states was destroying its own manufacturing base under president obama for those folks who've lost their job right now Okay, I see what this guy's this is like right-wing fox news shit. He's but yeah, so he right away the blame is put on obama Or the blame is put on the bite administration Fox news any anytime someone quotes fox news, you know, you're in trouble. It's a it's a slanted board And then you know, it's box news. It doesn't mind lying. They said so And they mentioned the government will be in control of your finances and and and your spending patterns and And the government was the the first thing that the right wing does is they they blame Everything on the government Government is bad big governments is worse You know, everything is government government. They don't say anything about corporate CEOs. No, they don't Yeah, it's always the government's controlling your life through what the subliminal messages the corporations are using No, yeah, I mean, I don't think That the asses of the masses are going to tolerate Your harder money expiring No, they'll be riot So, you know, that means that if you if you had a pretty good career For let's say 20 years According to that guy All your hard earned saved money will have expiration dates on insane Yeah, I just don't I just don't think that's gonna fly Oh, uh, one one quick subject I wanted to go over was uh You know, I'm single. I'm doing internet dating and I'm finding Someone's profile will say something and then you talk to them and they'll say something completely different and say Oh that the profile's wrong and I haven't been able to change it. Um, I think it's the site I really think it's the individual and I think that they're They're I don't know Frankly lying. I don't know what for The age changes Uh, the astrological sign is different. Um, oh they do that to so many people my profile hasn't changed I don't know that that just has to show you people are a lot more dishonest nowadays Well That is is a pattern Unfortunately that uh has been progressively getting worse lying And um people will be be leaving their own lives Fake pictures fake pictures. Uh, I mean you you have to You have to watch for red flags now if if you have A person on On online dating app That has a photo That is not a close-up Crystal clear high definition photo Don't don't believe that's that's that if it's if it's an old photo where they're Um Where it's a little blurry or they're far away and you can't make out the detail of them or or they only show The photo only shows them from the chin to the top of their head that means they're they're obese um And they refuse to do uh video chatting with you. Yeah big red flag Yes, it could be number one a scammer uh number two They have something to hide Exactly and you know, i'm just tired of Bullshit in the world so many things are hard enough as it is. Why do we have to have? People running interference in in our personal lives in our online lives. I mean I don't get it man No, I I I don't I don't get it either. Um It's uh now getting back to Facebook now They're very hypocritical if if they're allowing um phallic symbols drawings of penises You know to advertise a a drug that's going to make your dick bigger Oh, oh tay buck wheat. Can I get the x-ray glasses too while we're at it? yeah, and and and but you You post or say something that doesn't even come close to that banner And and you and you're in time out for a week Well, the weird thing is these things where they won't let you post in groups that aren't your own I don't know what that punishment is really about.

Well, I don't know man the people of Chicago have spoken By electing a very progressive mayor brandon johnson who bernie supported Hey to tell you he wanted to defund the police And he he owes the city of chicago thousands of dollars in unpaid fines and penalties Yeah, he's he's not quite the guy you think he is i'm sorry to tell you and the other guy was uh um valis, what's the whole name paul valis paul valis is the um The person that um Mick Preferred that didn't get in well because he was going to take care of the crime number one and he wasn't about defunding the police And that's the last thing you need to do in a high crime city like chicago is to fund the police You know you need more police presence. You need stronger police. You need better police training so there's not unnecessary shootings You know police shootings uh when they you know shoot somebody 14 times It's it's not a good day in chicago like it's like put Extending a bad she was a bad mayor of this guys. I predict it's going to be Possibly worse than her. We don't know yet But on paper he was saying things that no one agreed with so I don't I think it was a low voter turnout That's how he got elected Yeah, it's like it's like um the cops just turning over Their weapons to the criminals and saying here here to city's yours Exactly exactly so I I don't know and as far as my concern I don't agree with that that his little victory is not going to be a good thing for chicago I don't think so I know people that live that live in the city and they're they're They're frightened I've had people send me messages on facebook saying r.i.p. chicago now that he's been elected You know every time new york city Had a democrat mayor I hate to say it but but crime skyrocketed Wow Because they have Luminant and crime It's just like When David dinkins who a black mayor Used to be Mayor of new york city. He had this He had this approach Where you know don't hassle the brothers So When they're committing their crimes you mean well everything from um Like the like there was a big problem back then with aggressive panhandlers You know the tourists would be in Where you well, you know time square 42nd street, you know Where the big ball comes down on new years eve, you know and the tourists are there and Then you had you know all the peep shows and massage parlors and everything at that time.

Wow Yeah, I said that thing is beautiful, man Yeah, you know, he he used to keep the charge in his car Did he have to use it on this guy or with the snapple request? No, no, no the guy backed off one time he saw it Yeah, one time because he he manages this, uh, you know high-class go-go bar gentlemen's club They call so a place is called platinum dolls so He had trouble They're not gentlemen that go to the gentlemen's club.

It doesn't make sense Why I mean, I mean just listen if you're an adult at 18 That's it across the board alcoholic beverages weed cigarettes military Even driving should be at 18. I think yeah, I don't I don't I don't feel comfortable with some Some senior in high school On the highway or no Exactly, you should see how fast they go on a residential street But they did they did something smart over here One of the best inventions. I think by civil engineers is the high speed bump Oh, I hate driving over those This slow you down. I got slow down. Yeah I'm talking about people are that going fast where they're going 40 into 20. Yeah, you know, there could be children playing, you know Children at play just like us What's this? There's a cool song by a metal church called watch the children pray That's a cool tune Leave us kids alone Yes, exactly speaking of that they identified another gacy victim recently Thank god with the dna You know first family's closure. I mean, thank god for that Sad stuff Was I think gacy still is the biggest serial killer, isn't he? I don't think dom or past him. I don't know Zeta one zeta one that like dressed up like a clown so he can yes Yes attract There there was an underlying thought that he was doing snuff films homosexual snuff films Which you know just grim grim stuff Well, let's pull let me pull out of that and stop talking about that. It's not I'm just saying I'm glad they That they identified the remains of a young man knows about it exactly exactly Ronnie s Jason Cleveland says Ronnie s I think it's because it's an intoxicant like alcohol And thus has the same laws in place You can get a a weed dy so I'd never try to get high and drive anymore I used to when I was younger But now they can give you a dy just for that and it's not worth it Yeah, see Ronnie made a very good point Yeah, you're right. You're right. It doesn't make sense working papers 16 drivers licensed 17 dying a war and vote at 18 But you can't smoke weed or drink alcohol until you're 21 I don't get it. I just don't get it me neither The green river killer out of washington state killed 48 people holy shit. So I don't remember how many gacy killed I think the only the only famous Damn That's why you know you can't That's why kids have to be The kids need curfews definitely. I mean and they need parental they need print they need to be chaperone by an adult And they need to be picked up at school by a guardian We were never picked up. We walked we walked all the time back when it was safe Hit of me. I I walked all the time and I also went trick-or-treating without an adult with me Exactly then I remember the one halloween When it was in the news that someone put razor blades inside of an apple Well, I wouldn't eat apples when I was a kid. I'd give those away I wanted to eat and candy bars like They found razor blades in some I don't know if it was three musketeers or snickers or what? You know, I forgot but there was somebody started with the razor blades. That's pure evil right there And maybe poison. Yeah, it is it is and and those people Should die a slow death. They should suffer. I'm sorry Yeah, that would hurt children the u.s. Government is the biggest serial killer of all. Yeah Well, the perpetual wars the wars that don't end The the wars for profit Korea Vietnam Yeah And all those wars under bush jr. That pos It's amazing how I don't know I I don't want to get off on a tangent Because when you think about it it makes me angry. No weapons of mass destruction. None. It was a fallacy It was just a reason to go to war And look, you know, I I hold him personally responsible for creating isis Isis wouldn't have existed if we didn't go through that war You okay jimmy you take too big of a gulp there? I I did When when when gw the The the the best thing that ever happened during his presidency is when that iraqi was throwing his shoes at him Both his shoes and and yeah, I'm sorry miss You know, I never watched that war on tv pure like it's so cool. You can watch it and I'm like I didn't agree with the war. I certainly didn't want to watch it myself personally You know, I mean like we said at the beginning of the show all of the 9 11 culprits were Saudis Yeah, Lonnie knows that Oh god fentanyl Fentanyl whoever made that they fentanyl Should be destroyed immediately and never you know all the all the people that are famous drug addicts are all now Dying because there's fentanyl laced that one actor That did the wire. I forget his name. He fentanyl and his heroine Uh singer of uh power trip fentanyl killed him Prince fentanyl's evil and should be thrown in the garbage. I asked what prince died of Oh, yeah truman did yeah, we that's the only way the japanese would stop dropping those bombs Well, and I would have done instead of uh, I'm really I'm really against hurting And well, I'm against hurting innocent civilians. Oh, they killed tons of civilians in that. Yes It's the it's the it's the wicked government That is to blame not not not not men women and you know, not Women and children and and old people, you know not yeah, that was evil stuff You know truman what I would have done was massive embargo don't allow Anything to leave Japan waters or enter No cargo note. No shipment. No cargo ships. I mean just cut off their supplies By having the u.s. Navy surrounds Japan and that's it. I wouldn't I wouldn't have dropped Atomic bombs on the poor souls. I mean come on. Yeah, that was that was against humanity what he did Isis. Yeah, well al-qaeda was around during a gw bush and then Isis was born from out of the iraq war and Uh, it never would have come about without iraq war two. Yeah, there was desert she Desert shield and then desert storm right desert shield was uh Was uh herbert walker bush, right? But then obama and john carry did their part also In what in what way with not with those wars or isis Yeah, well, um the republican of arizona there john mccain was uh getting chummy chummy with uh Isis right the sale of weapons One of the bombs was dropped next to a church that was in session Church a bar, you know bombs one of the I know I said a church a bar wherever people are. I mean yeah, I mean, I mean I'm not as religious as jason, so I don't believe you have a sacred thing when you're in church. I I mean, I wrote too much crime too much crime done in churches myself. Well, I mean the main thing is innocent civilians through children yeah grandparents you know, it's uh Whether the church in session was right next to the bomb being dropped or or 50 feet away. It's still A total annihilation and uh, I don't know what was going through harry truman's head He wanted to end the war. He ended the war with the japan japan immediately. They immediately surrendered after that Andola gay wasn't that the name of the plane that dropped the bomb? Yeah, it was the hiroshima and nagasaki Yeah, didn't uh russia drop a bomb on a hospital Recently Yeah, they did In in uh, yeah, yeah, yeah, they loved to bomb.
