No Good Options Left: Most Are Going to Be Burned

Gold is telling the tale. Big money has got better information and is already moving. The Fed is trapped and going to have to choose...and it will always choose to "save the system," and to "save the bond market." The result? The line of misery moves up deeper into the upper middle-classes. Context and action are your keys to salvation.

The Stablecoin Trap: The Backdoor To Total Financial Control

The walls are closing in on your financial freedom—but not in the way most Americans believe. While the debate rages over the future threat of Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), a far more insidious reality has already taken hold: our existing financial system already functions as a digital control grid, monitoring transactions, restricting choices, and enforcing compliance through programmable money.

ALERT UPDATE: Building The Case For Elon’s Magic Money Machines

As you hopefully know, I take issuing ALERTS very seriously.  I understand the impact they will have on my followers because they have the same impact on Evie and myself.  They cause actions to be undertaken.  They spur decisions. When I release an ALERT, it’s because an internal threshold has been breached.  I cannot always...

A Recessionary Entrée, With a Side of Dumb Money, Seasoned With Magic Money

The Fed split the difference by turning hawkish on rates but dovish by reducing the pace of QT. Inflation is still too high, but the economy is clearly rolling over. Meanwhile, the very foundations of the UYS dollar system were called into question by Elon's comment about "magic money machines."

Elon’s Magic Money Machines: Unpacking the Banking Bombshell

Digging deeper into Elon's bombshell, and also taking a few steps back, we can observe that there's far too many attempts to obscure the true scope of dollar creation for us to trust anything coming from official sources. Maybe we should have paid more attention to the Panama Papers release?

Elon’s Startling Revelation and Its Enormous Implications

The unthinkable has just been publicly verified by Elon Musk. It changes everything. According to him, the US government has been emitting payments from "magic money machines" that have no corresponding back end with money in them. This violates the foundational precept of banking, and therefore accounting and therefore destroys trust and faith.

Friday’s Stock Bounce, The Dollar Dives, And Gold’s New High

Back in Focus: The Great Taking

This is another “framing” scouting report.

The unsettling reality is that systemic corruption cannot be fixed after a certain point. Which brings us back...
