OUR SUBSISTENCE ECONOMY IS COLLAPSING.

WILL THIS FREE OR DESTROY OUR REPUBLIC AS FOUNDED!?

WHAT IS A SUBSISTENCE ECONOMY?

An economy where the majority of the population live “hand to mouth” or in modern language, paycheck to paycheck.

The first thing people need to realize as they grow more & more AWARE of just how

e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g in our lives is manipulated by these Ghoulish Shitbags, your money & access to it is the most manipulated thing of all.

SIXTY PER CENT of working Americans are now living paycheck to paycheck.

Sixty per cent of American families are just ONE economic hiccup or event away from being unable to feed, clothe and house themselves.

And as we have clearly seen recently, the hiccups are beginning to come hard and fast.

The Silvergate, Silicon Valley and Signature Banks all collapsed in March of 2023 with Credit Suisse narrowly avoiding that fate at the last moment.

Now add First Republic Bank to the list as the second largest bank failure in US history.

The Fed’s raising of interest rates has DEVASTATED numerous Banking institutions that appear to have WILDLY overextended themselves as the value of their investments consequently plummeted.

First Republic asked for a bailout a la 2008 and were resoundingly turned down.

WHY?

What changed?

THIS CHANGED!!

As my brother Brian Cates would say, by some supreme act of sorcery, Trump got the ability to fold the Federal Reserve into the US Treasury Department and most people missed this because the MSM told you it was “just another damage control move during Trump’s FAILED RESPONSE to the COVID-19 Plandemic.”

From REI’s David Mashian =

“In March of 2020, the single biggest news event of the decade hardly got any news coverage, and that is the Federal Reserve just got rolled into the US Treasury Department. This happened in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, so such massive news got drowned out by Corona Virus news and concerns. Most people don’t know what the Federal Reserve is or was. To put it simply, The Fed was a privately-owned banking cartel owned by foreign and domestic wealthy banking families who controlled the economic system of the United States by controlling its money supply. With this single act, the US government now owns “The Fed” and has the ability to govern its own financial destiny without acquiescing to a third-party entity whose interests are not aligned with WE THE PEOPLE. We, through our elected officials, now control our own money supply. THAT IS HUGE!”

I remember this habbening & wondered HOW Trump had been granted the ability to do this as well.

Burning Bright talking about this with the same sense of incredulous wonder a couple of weeks ago reminded me I’d never reconciled HOW Trump accomplished this either.

But now I think I can but before I do, let me ask you a QUESTION.

“HOW do you leverage a criminal?”

A criminal who, because they are a criminal, are already “captured” or leveraged by America’s Enemies?

That’s easy! You make them an offer they CANNOT REFUSE.

Using greater LEVERAGE than the opposition.

HOW was Trump able to fold the Fed into the Treasury?

By what authority?

HE SEIZED IT.

Remember one of the very first Executive Orders Trump signed?

Asset Forfeiture!

Executive Order 13818-Blocking the Property of Persons Involved in Serious Human Rights Abuse or Corruption

Oh, but for that to be real OBVIOUSLY every Legacy Media outlet would have announced it!

Right?

RIGHT?

WRONG!

People in the WORLD AS IT IS today are going to have to realize the Legacy Media is a HOSTILE TOOL of the Deep State/Transnational Criminal Organization fighting Trump & his America First Movement.

Trump simply DID IT and then moved on to his next order of business in dismantling the Foul & Odious World there Creeps have built and are Hell Bent on trying to FORCE US to live in.

In the coming months you’re going to find a lot of people associated with not only the Federal Reserve CARTEL, but many European Institution including the VATICAN are hip deep in the DARK MONEY generated by the laundering of US Aid money, drug & human (including child sex) trafficking across the world.

This goes back for over a century.

And Donald Trump took their piggy bank away from them and gave it to the US Treasury which is now, for some strange reason hiking interest rates to such a degree they cannot meet any margin calls created by **operatives** or the public.

Jerome Powell is a Swamp Creature, almost certainly, but he was appointed chairman of the Fed by Trump.

And as Powell, tone deaf to the cries of these degenerate bankers, keeps raising the rates, the solvency of their corrupt money machine begins to unravel.

Back to the subsistence economy these SCHEMERS have finessed into the American Landscape over the last seventy years.

We were being set up for a sixteen year plan that would have, had it succeeded, been the end of America as founded.

It would have seen us, at the end of Hillary’s second term as President, a starving, blacked out, destitute population ravaged by COVID, open borders & locked down due to ever increasing ISIS terror attacks.

And we would have just lost a war with China, which is what Obama was setting us up for from day one of his Presidency.

Unprepared, poor, starving with their lockdowns still enforced to “PROTECT US” (vomit!) Hillary or her successor would, sadly, tell us it was time to give up our guns or face the Chinese victor’s fury.

As she LET THEM IN.

The same way they let MS-13 and ISIS in.

Do you SEE it yet?

The collapse of America would be complete and then they would rebuild your children into their hideous image.

All boxes CHECKED!

The American Vision & Spirit finally CRUSHED beyond repair.

And they did it all by capturing our schools, our laws, our money and our elections to propagate their intolerant fascism.

The US Dollar has lost 97% of it’s spending value since 1971.

NEVER FORGET WHAT THEY HAVE TAKEN FROM US. One Breadwinner could **handily** support a Household in 1955. The Powers That Be have turned Americans into Serfs without our even being aware of it.

Regard this picture and weep. This is what these greedy, American AS FOUNDED hating Ghouls have done to our money & our lives.

This has been an arranged generational theft by the BANKING BLOODLINES since 1913.

To protect themselves because of WHO they are (which is WHAT you do) they need it ALL.

ALL the Money.

ALL the Resources.

ALL of your Obedience.

Which you, as a helpless, propertyless Serf, would have to give them or face oblivion.

Their abuse of the American People complete!

Their destruction of the American way of life achieved!

As they made their enslavement and abuse of your children LEGAL.

CODIFIED and enforced by a new generation of brain dead youth similar to Mao’s Red Guards.

Look at California.

Oregon & Washington State.

Our Enemies run those places and they are a clear harbinger of what’s to be expected should we fail.

But we’re not going to fail.

We’ve already won, actually.

Because their base & corrupt banking system is collapsing faster than they can steal or generate new DARK MONEY to sustain it.

As Awakened Americans begin investing & spending the money remaining to them more wisely.

A global network of Nation States has formed a financial trust called BRICS originally comprised of Brazil, Russia, India, China & South Africa that appears to be challenging the financial hegemony of what I’ve called THE FOURTH REICH, the Transnational Criminal Organization the Biden Crime Family & so many other Bad actors in our government belong to.

And as the US Petrodollar wanes, the BRICS currencies are increasing in value as they are resource backed whereas our US Dollar is now as fake as our News.

JP Morgan has bought First Republic **consolidating** another financial victim of the Fed.

But consolidating for….WHOM?

Wasn’t Jamie Dimon in the news recently?

Oh YEAH! That’s right! The US Virgin Islands case! USVI vs EPSTEIN!!

Jamie Dimon, as CEO of JP Morgan is at the heart of a Child Sex Trafficking case.

#Leverage?

Powell is doing things a Swamp Creature would never do.

He’s hastening the destruction of their monetary system & it’s control over the lives of Americans and seems to be doing it at WARP SPEED!

Now Dimon, linked to Epstein is stepping in to help/consolidate another failing bank Powell’s actions have poleaxed.

What if HE is as leveraged as Powell?

Remember, we are talking about financial systems integral to American finance.

IF they were being collapsed & consolidated another word for that could be SEIZED.

As the American people struggle to make ends meet in BIDEN’S AMERICA our financial institutions are teetering on a precipice of disaster.

Almost like the situation we find ourselves in with Biden’s flagrant warmongering trying to POKE Russia into WWIII.

People keep saying we are watching a movie.

As I watch Kiev vainly waiting for Puddin’ Head Joe to start WWIII to save them from a situation of their own making I can’t help but think we’re kind of doing the same thing.

By that, we are waiting for someone to ride in on that proverbial white charger to save us from the financial mess we are all entangled in.

And by saying that, I am NOT assigning blame to the reader or anyone else who was not at ground level when the people creating these predatory banks fueled by THIEVERY was created.

But we ARE all caught up in this because as Americans our tax dollars have wrought untold havoc here & abroad **IN OUR NAME.**

Donald Trump isn’t going to save this corrupt banking system.

Like Marc Antony, he’s not here to praise Caesar, he’s here to BURY HIM.

Bury it all, and start out anew.

CLEAN.

The (Great) Reset we all need to pick up the remains of a broken Nation, one shattered by ignorance, greed, malice & treachery, to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN.
