The Fed’s Plans for a CBDC: It’s the entire reason for the Biden presidency, and they are close

I love Jackson Hole, Wyoming; I spent some time there recently with my family.  It’s where the Fed gets together with bankers from all over the world, it’s the bean counter version of Davos, and it’s something I have paid attention to for a long time.  It’s also where one of my favorite movies, Every Which Way You Can, was filled.  While there, I had to visit all the filming locations for the big fight at the movie’s end.  And it is there that my daughter and I like to get new cowboy hats; there is an exceptional store on the square that is fantastic.  But it is there that I wanted a hat because I wanted to think about the notion that much of the world’s problems are created through monetary policy, and it’s a reminder that Jackson Hole, as lovely as it is, brings out the most pretentious in these stiff bankers, and aligns them with all the horrendous out-of-touchness that is typical at the World Economic Forum meetings in Davos.  Smart, stiff people suddenly surrounded by beautiful mountains who start to think of themselves as the gods from Mt. Olympus.  Then suddenly, they lose track of reality and become the kind of tyrants people scream “freedom” from.  But that doesn’t make Jackson, Wyoming, a bad place because people go there and create bad monetary policy.  I see it as a place of adventure, and during that most recent trip, I pulled my RV through the McDonald’s drive-thru to get my grandchildren some chicken nuggets before heading south into Utah for the next leg of our journey, which caused quite a stir.  They had never seen anybody do something like that, which maybe is the actual message. Perhaps they should because a bit of managed recklessness is essential to significant economies and avoids disastrous discussions about the Fed proposal of a CBDC (Central Bank Digital Currency)

Of course, the Fed wants to abuse its power, most institutions find those temptations too seductive, and there will never be a group of people who handles too much responsibility well.  That doesn’t mean you never have groups of people with massive responsibilities, it just means that you can never allow them to have too much power, and that is what all central bankers are looking for in the world, more security for them and less freedom for you.  It’s also why I say that the election fraud was so bad in 2020 because many financial forces aligned with the World Economic Forum are looking for stability that the Trump economy was set not to provide for them.  So they conspired together to commit the most significant election fraud in the history of the world, and they did it essentially to make a CBDC in America possible. (Central Bank Digital Currency) The Fed is already practicing Modern Monetary Theory, so it’s all on the table with a CBDC to control every aspect of our lives. That’s the plan and has been the plan coming up every August at these Fed meetings in Jackson Hole for a long time now. Suppose you know anything about those timid types who desire with all their hearts some centralized stability in global communism. In that case, you can understand why they cheat in elections, especially in 2020. They will do anything to win again and protect their worldview. ANYTHING!  The current status of Central Bank Digital Currency is that many central banks around the world are exploring the possibility of creating their digital currencies. The goal is to provide a secure and efficient way of conducting transactions while maintaining control over monetary policy. Some countries, such as China, have already begun testing their digital currencies. However, many questions and concerns still surround implementing CBDCs, including privacy, security, and financial stability. It will be interesting to see how this technology develops and how it will impact the global economic landscape in the future.

Joe Biden was put in place in 2020 over President Trump to establish a CBDC during his term.  The first term would set up the conditions; the second would get it done.  This is the one world currency discussed and why the World Economic Forum wants to go to a cashless society.  Most everything the radical leftists in the world, who now run many of these central banks complete with ESG scores as their primary drivers, is to impose a China model, communist-driven, CBDC into the American economy, which will then give complete control of governments over people by changing values of money with the push of the button.  This is why Biden’s radical communist party has no concern whatsoever about the debt and why Modern Monetary Theory, which they deny they know anything about, is such a lucrative strategy for them.  They can wipe away debt with the push of a button because the value is determined by those controlling money, not the actual production provided by economic activity.  And suppose it’s a one-world currency controlled by the influences of the World Economic Forum, which already controls the Federal Reserve in the United States. In that case, nothing can stop them from completely dominating the world’s money supply.  That is the end game that the Fed is talking about this year in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, as they look at the lovely mountains and sip lattes early in the morning as they watch elk cross the street.  Isn’t nature so beautiful?  It makes you want to impose ESG scores on banks to fulfill fake climate change criteria to advance the concept of a CBDC into a Liberal World Order. 

It is with a CBDC that the Biden administration hopes to disconnect people from their lives by turning them off entirely from economic activity.  If the only currency available is those controlled by corrupt centralized governments, people will have no choice but to capitulate.  That is how it is in China increasingly, and the Biden administration is drooling over the prospects in the United States.  They couldn’t quite get it done fast enough to be in Biden’s first term, so they plan to do it in the second if he lives long enough.  But that is why they want a brain-dead stooge in the White House.  For them, Kamala Harris will do just fine.  All she has to do is sign where they tell her to.  They could care less about anything else because if they control the money, they control all of society.  If you don’t like it, they don’t care.  They can turn you off at the gas pump with the flick of a button.  They can steal all your savings.  Take your home if you don’t vote how they want you to.  And life as we know it will then be controlled by the lunatics at Davos because of the Fed policies set at Jackson Hole every August, as they have been working toward this CBDC concept.  And yes, it’s every bit as bad and more than you can imagine.  Yet they think nobody will catch them on it until it’s too late, which has already blown up in their face.  That means that this year’s trip to Jackson Hole by the global bankers, especially those directly connected to the Fed, is to do damage control.  Not to present the status as much as how to keep it alive through this next election cycle and the threat to them of another Trump term.  Good for us, bad for them.  Very bad.

It’s a Wonderful Life in Butler County, Ohio: Because Nancy Nix is in it

I don’t usually talk about the social life that goes on at fundraisers for the GOP, but there were so many interesting stories at the latest Nancy Nix event at the Elks Club in Hamilton, Ohio, in Liberty Township. But there was a moment of absolute truth that was worth recognition. At this event, some hilarious comedians told great jokes that made the audience laugh hard. But hidden in those exchanges was talk about the movie It’s a Wonderful Life that was applied to the life of Nancy Nix and was very accurate. Like all comedy, the truest things are often the funniest because of their roots in the things many people hope to remain secret. But in talking about them in a comic setting, the mass exposure to truth sets off the relief valve, and people bond due to the shared experience. And ironically, then, while people are sharing those unique moments of honesty, it opens the door to profound truths, and that was the comparison of Nancy Nix to the character from that excellent Christmas movie to George Baily, the honest banker from the fictional town of Bedford Falls. Nancy is now the auditor for Butler County, Ohio, as she has been the treasurer for many years. And the people in the room at her fundraiser were all influencers to a vast degree, and it was a moment where your life flashes in front of everyone, and a potent truth becomes apparent, what would the world be like without you and in the case of Nancy, how much better is Butler County, Ohio because she is in it. And the answer is cinematically evident in the ways that happy endings to movies are most hoped for. Only this was reality.

Things have been contentious in the Butler County Republican Party this past year. You can tell that without a Republican in the White House to set the temperature in the room of politics; people have drifted. When Trump was president, more Republicans were unified toward an America First agenda than they have been in the year of indictments, now that Covid has been over and another election year was coming up. Biden has been a massive but predictable failure, and Republicans, through federal, state, and local elections, were finding themselves lost a bit, and there have been some significant disagreements. There was nothing so wrong that they couldn’t shake hands at the next event, such as the Nancy Nix fundraiser. But some of them were very serious and contentious within local party politics. And in some cases, there were very emotional disagreements, politics as a blood sport was messy, and people were hurt in the process, which brings up the entire problem of whether or not people should even get along if they’ve done terrible things to each other. Is it even honest, moral, or proper to think such things? In many ways, the problems that George Baily had at the end of It’s a Wonderful Life, the entire premise of the movie was that he wanted to commit suicide because he was being crushed by the immense evil in the world, and his good sensibilities just couldn’t hold up to the pressure. For a dramatic comedy, that is a severe way to start or end the movie. And those same themes were undoubtedly in the air at Nancy’s fundraiser. What was the purpose of party politics if so many people disagreed with each other within their party? Was it more important to be authentic to your beliefs or to find a way to get along?

Ironically, the solution to George Baily’s condition was to see how the world would be without him, to be shown how much his impact on his community was better because he was in it.  And if he had committed suicide, so many lives would fall apart, and much evil would be unleashed.  But authentically, that was what happened at the fundraiser for Nancy Nix; through the comedy of some very talented people, the life of Nancy Nix was put into a sharp focus by how the room had united behind her, and people put aside their differences, if just for a few hours because she is a genuinely good person who makes Butler County so much better. After all, she is in it.  And the comedy of the evening was essentially a celebration of her life, even if moment to moment it doesn’t feel like it, or it doesn’t seem as though anybody ever cares to do the right thing.  When someone like Nancy Nix is being celebrated, it all comes into focus, and the best in people finds its way to the surface.  And the world is indeed a much better place.  It is a wonderful life, and when many talented people find focus through friendships, it makes life better for everyone else, especially Butler County. 

I enjoyed talking to some people I hadn’t seen in a while, primarily because of all the contentious issues.  I stay pretty busy anyway, and my wife and I have been traveling for most of the summer.  So it was good to see so many people again in one place and to see them generally happy and unified.  That is what politics is all about, managing community resources and nothing more.  All the personal needs don’t mean anything because the entire effort is about ensuring people get what they need out of government.  It gets complicated because politics is a popularity contest, and you have to raise money, work with other people, and find a way to work with others who are all doing the same things.  Maintaining authenticity can be difficult under the best circumstances, so I’m pretty forgiving of mistakes because there is often so much pressure, and things go wrong.  But often, good intent does improve the world positively for people in general.  And I couldn’t think of anybody in that room, which is most of the major players of Butler County, who weren’t doing what they did with the best of intent, from their perspective.  When we talk about the path to Hell being paved with good intentions, that is often how everyone arrives there.  But what prevents hell from happening is when those good intentions are focused behind the efforts of a genuinely good person, such as Nancy Nix.  And she is the real deal.  Whatever preferences other people have, like in the famous Jimmy Stewart movie, their efforts are made better when a good person is the glue that holds them all together.  And that is the role Nancy Nix has in Butler County politics.  It’s why Butler County is one of the best Republican Parties in the nation and continues to do great work for the people who vote.  Butler County has many talents, which is always apparent when they find themselves in one place together.  The difference in leadership is when it becomes evident that Nancy Nix, like the fictional character of George Baily, is not such a fantasy but a reality in Butler County after all.  And sometimes, we do get happy endings, and everyone is better for it, which was evident at the Nancy Nix fundraiser.  We have much to be proud of regarding the Butler County Republican Party and that life is worth living, rather than jumping off a bridge because it doesn’t always feel that way.

Why Does Blackstone Want to Buy All Our Homes: Yet another scam from the World Economic Forum to bring Communism to America

You see, back in the good old days, if a corporation or person wanted to conduct a hostile takeover, they would have to be very successful in life, save their money, and use years of winnings to buy out their rivals to acquire power and position.  Heck, even when it comes to the game Monopoly, you’d have to work hard during the game to buy up more property before your rivals and get hotels on them as quickly as possible.  And that was the path to winning the game.  But these days, such as with Blackstone, who has been buying up personal homes for nefarious reasons, Monopoly is given to them, complete with all the houses and hotels.  All they must do is play a few rounds and they win.  This is because of the alliance with a government that corporate partnerships have these days where the Fed prints a bunch of fake money and dumps it into Wall Street where companies like Blackstone, which is strategically aligned with the World Economic Forum, start the game about to win because they were given all the money, they’d need to perform the task.  That is the game going on now in real estate, where the World Economic Forum’s desire to convert property ownership into renters is underway at a pace that people should find alarming.  Blackstone is different from BlackRock.  Why do you think all these crazy World Economic Forum companies have “black” in their name?  Aren’t they interested in other things?  I believe that the reason is that it all eventually ties back to the Kaaba Stone in Mecca and that for them, they are still fighting the Crusades, the classic struggle between the East and the Christianized West; at least, that is what many of the occult lovers from Europe believe, and the World Economic Forum types operate in that region and are undoubtedly hell-bent on globalism with those same strategies in mind.

I have been getting calls, about once per week, for a few years from companies trying to buy my house, which I thought was weird.  How could they afford to do that, I wondered?  Not just to buy my home but to have a strategy of purchasing many homes.  It’s not like they are flipping houses, buying them low, and selling them high after a few improvements.  In many cases, they are paying top prices for real estate, almost as if money didn’t matter.  Well, that’s because money doesn’t matter to them.  What does matter is buying up the property of private citizens, putting a little juice in their pocket that they will then foolishly blow at the local casino or on some nefarious conduct.  Then deplete themselves into becoming renters and subservient to not just Blackstone or some other investment company such as Invitation Homes—but the strategies of the World Economic Forum.  It’s a sucker game that is more of a military attack rather than a straight-up investment as traditionally measured.  The scheme is meant to hide its intentions behind what we would typically consider business practices, but the desire is to acquire private property with phony money injected into Wall Street to give power to WEF companies they otherwise would never have.  These aren’t investments from traditionally hard-working people looking for long-term sustainability for a retirement fund.  Those people certainly do invest, but the real menace is hidden behind the fake money printed by the Fed that gave them all the power and made the investment portfolio look much more attractive than it otherwise would be. 

Of course, I continue to say no to these frequent calls.  Property ownership is the key to the American way of life, and as many people as possible should be utilizing it for the country’s health.   But this current government which is the propped-up puppet not just of China but of the World Economic Forum is playing along with the strategy of making owners into renters, which is the proclaimed declaration of the Desecrators of Davos, “We will own nothing, and be happy.”   Destroying the concept of home ownership is a strategy, just like winning at Monopoly is the reason for playing.  But the point of the game is to earn the win.  In the case of Blackstone, they were given the victory by the Fed, which is the money they are using to buy up all these homes, luring people to the temptation of easy money for short-term gains so they can hold that property for long-term strategies.  It’s the same game as with BlackRock; they didn’t become overtly successful overnight.  They had a partnership with the Fed which used them to funnel their fake money into our economic system to manipulate it in ways that the World Economic Forum desired.  It was a foreign invasion disguised as shareholder capitalism.  Just as Blackstone is buying homes disguised as real estate transactions for investments when the fundamental objective is the conquest of the West’s foundations into private property ownership, when personal property becomes public, because the money used to buy it came from the Fed strategy of Modern Monetary Theory, a nation can be purchased by foreign, hostile interests without firing a single shot. 

It didn’t take BlackRock long to acquire so much stock, bought with a mix of phony Fed money hidden with legitimate 401K investment, to become majority shareholders, which they had to do to redefine capitalism into the Marxist model that the World Economic Forum has in mind.  None of these companies come from Joe down the street, who wants to make enough money to have a boat for leisurely weekend enjoyment.  These are hostile foreign interests who still think they are fighting in the Crusades, only like the Knights Templars who brought back from the Holy Land poison given to them intellectually from the Muslims, like rat poison going back to the nest to kill them all, this attack strikes at the very foundation of capitalism disguised as investments but is, in reality, a communist plot to rule the world.  Buying America’s homes is not just an investment to buy up a mortgage and sell it back to a renter for a few hundred extra bucks in a rental payment.  In case you haven’t noticed, energy bills are up about 6% per kilowatt hour, as is the cost of most things, slowly squeezing Americans at their pocketbooks and making that Blackstone money look all too tempting.  This is a massive military strategy to take over our country.  And it’s coming at us from directions nobody has yet figured out.  But it is a coordinated plan meant to end the concept of America as quickly as possible.  And all roads point back to Janet Yellen, Jerome Powell, and Ben Bernanke and their alliance with Wall Street figures, deeply committed to the Marxism of the World Economic Forum.  And they violated our trust and have shown their teeth to eat us, unaware.  This is not a fight for troops on some remote battlefield, but this one is at the bank and in the halls of the legislature.  It’s a very unsexy fight as part of its disguise.  But it’s a fight never-the-less—one of the most important in the history of the world.

Another Rally for Issue 1 in Ohio: The first one was so successful we are doing it again

The West Chester Tea Party rally was held to protect the Ohio Constitution, with a particular focus on Issue 1. This was a critical event, and many people turned out to voice their concerns and show their support. The rally was a chance for people to come together and stand up for what they believe in, and it was a powerful demonstration of the power of people in action.

Regardless of where people stood on the issue, there was no denying the passion and dedication of those who attended the rally. They came from all walks of life, united in their desire to protect the Ohio Constitution and ensure that their voices were heard with the message: that the people of Ohio would not stand idly by while their rights were threatened.

If you missed the first rally at the corner of Cox Rd and Tylersville Rd, it was quite a spectacle.  As the rally continued, it became clear that this was not just a local issue but a national one as the eyes of many are watching what steps we are taking in Ohio to protect our Constitution from radical Democrats who want to take over the world by destroying the laws of our civilization. People from all over the country were watching and listening, and many were inspired to act in their communities. The West Chester Tea Party rally was a powerful reminder that people can make a difference when they come together.  So they are doing it again, on August 5th, from noon to – 1:30 PM. 

In the end, the rally brought attention to the issue and helped to mobilize a movement that would continue to fight for the rights of Ohioans for years to come. It was a testament to the power of conservative politics and the importance of standing up for what you believe in. The West Chester Tea Party rally will always be remembered for how people came together to protect their Constitution and way of life.

The Greatest Crime in the World: Of course, the Fed knew what they were doing, they just never thought they’d get caught

Here is the biggest crime in the world that nobody is talking about.  I’m not typically an audit the Fed kind of person, but Senator Rand Paul has been, along with his dad.  But unfortunately, he hasn’t been enough, and more senators should have always been heavily involved in this topic, and now we see the real danger in 2023 of bad Federal Reserve policy for several decades, especially since the 2008 economic collapse of the housing market.  Rand Paul is also really the only senator who has been asking the right kind of questions about the other biggest crime of the human race, Dr. Fauci’s role in the Covid lockdowns and subsequent deaths.  If not for Paul’s line of questions, we wouldn’t have what we do know, which is not nearly enough considering the level of the crimes committed against humanity.   Believe it or not, this Fed problem is much worse, and we are no longer talking about just auditing the Fed.  We need to have serious discussions about abolishing it, and coming up with a new fiscal management policy, because this government partnership with private industry, in this case the banking industry, has not worked.  It’s too much power in the hands of people who cannot manage that power, and it has gotten away from them in terribly destructive ways.  As the Federal Reserve was created in 1913, there were many good reasons to be suspicious.  We gave it a chance, and what happened proved those suspicions to be correct, and it’s time to admit that.  No matter what side you are on with politics, everyone should agree on fiscal policy and protecting money’s value as a core competency of American domestic management.  Instead, what we ended up with is much radical leftist activism from Jerome Powell, Janet Yellen, and Ben Bernanke since that 2008 economic crash and a disastrous relationship with Larry Fink from BlackRock that put all the wrong people in charge of our money, and now we have significant problems that a lot more people than Rand Paul need to get their arms around quickly.   

We’re not talking about ancient history here; it was only in 2020 that the Fed worked directly with Wall Street firms to buy bonds to offset the effects of the Covid lockdowns.  That is certainly the case with BlackRock, the largest money manager in the world, and their direct relationship to the Fed that has given them the ability to purchase the majority shareholder position in most of America’s corporations to impose woke standards on them with an artificial value created by the Fed.  Doesn’t anybody remember that old Flintstones episode where Fred was printing counterfeit money so that he could buy his wife something nice?  No, well, maybe everyone should take a minute and go back and watch that episode.  It’s a simple cartoon for kids, and they understood it back then.  That so many supposedly intelligent people didn’t know what the Fed was doing with quantitative easing to support a radical leftist concept of Modern Monetary Theory was wrong to explain clearly where many of these problems started.  That wasn’t the first time BlackRock benefited from that relationship with the Fed.  In 2008, Larry Fink was a nobody, and the government was looking for a sucker like him to funnel money to take the edge off the housing crisis.  BlackRock wasn’t managing trillions of dollars at that time as they do now.  But once the Fed started printing phony money to saturate the market with easy money funneled through Wall Street, BlackRock grew into the top investment firm within a decade.  But the whole house of cards was built off made-up counterfeit money, just like the Flintstones episode where Barny Rubble was printing fake money and was showing it to Fred.  If a private person prints phony money, it’s a crime.  But if the Federal Reserve does it, it’s not?  That’s the problem. 

Because of all the phony Fed money, BlackRock acquired trillions of dollars of investment dollars that they then used to buy up majority shares of stock and gain control of most American companies.  And because of that majority share ownership, they have been able to impose ESG standards straight from the World Economic Forum directly on those companies and their employees and customers.  Without the Fed tampering with the market by injecting fake money, BlackRock would never have gained the power it now has over so many companies.  And politically, none of these people, not the Federal Reserve representatives, and certainly not Larry Fink, are conservatives.  They are all radical leftists who are entirely too supportive of the centralized controls of the World Economic Forum.  BlackRock has taken in most of our money for 401K plans and made us part of this radical leftist activism whether we wanted to or not because they had control of so much money from the Fed to invest.  Without the Fed, BlackRock would have had to save their money like everyone else, and they would have been limited to their fiduciary responsibilities like all other companies used to.  Only now, after the cash injection by the Fed, did BlackRock, State Street, Vanguard, Blackstone, and many others gain leverage over the market with trillions of dollars of inflated asset acquisition that has essentially destroyed the market in America and placed control of it into the World Economic Forum and its radical leftist, Marxist policies. 

This is how these radical political activists have gained control over the fossil fuel industry and intend to drive them away from market value as it was traditionally utilized but steered them into political activism.  This is how Disney has been essentially destroyed by BlackRock being one of their majority shareholders.  This is the conversion of shareholder capitalism to “stakeholder” capitalism, as Larry Fink defines it.  The public used to be able to buy stock, and if a company could convince them to invest, they’d have a share and say in how that company was run.  These radical leftists are now calling the shots because the Fed injected so much money that it allowed BlackRock to take that opportunity away from ordinary investors.  Why does anybody think that Bud Light did what they did with the trans movement?  And why do most companies, even Chick-fil-A, find themselves in the same situation, despite what the public thinks about it?  Because all these money management firms were given fake money to invest, and now they are the majority shareholders, made that way by Fed radicalism that was entirely politically motivated to give possession of American industry over to the clutches of Marxism at the World Economic Forum.  When you make yourselves the Lords of Easy Money, many subjects will do whatever you say, and that is the crime that the Fed utilized to gain control over the entire American economy with fake money funneled through firms like BlackRock to perform the greatest robbery in the history of the world, right in front of everyone’s faces.  And it’s not something anybody can turn their backs on.  Now that the Fed has been caught, they are digging in their heels, hoping that a political takeover of the world toward leftist domination will save them from justice.  But that is, of course, up to us now that we know what we do.

I Had A Vision of the Destruction of the World Economic Forum: The collision of reality and American property ownership

Prizer Point is a great place to see things clearly

It has been one of those unique times where I have been away from home more than I have been home. My wife and I have been traveling extensively throughout the United States, living out of our RV. Some trips have been just she and I, some with immediate family members, and some with extended family. We have been seeing much of the country and interacting with many people. We have not lived in a bubble, and I have not seen any Joe Biden signs. But we have seen a lot of Trump support, even in areas considered otherwise liberal. And it was during one of these trips, I found myself reading Glenn Beck’s new book ‘Dark Future’ for the third time in over two weeks, and it was in the chapter “In the Future, You Will Own Nothing” that I made some important observations about the state of the world. This was ironic because we were at Prizer Point at Land Between the Lakes way down by Paducah, Kentucky, and I was surrounded at our luxury campsite with lots of property ownership. Prizer Point is one of the better marinas I’ve ever seen, and it had some luxurious houseboats docked there within view of our camp. I, of course, was reading my book next to my RV with our outside kitchen next to my mobile reading chair. Next to our site, mostly surrounded by water on a narrow peninsula, was several million dollars in various rig outfits by very committed RVers who had their own golf cars, jet skis, and boats of all kinds. Our kayak was parked next to our car, so I took a picture of where I was for emphasis. Everything about camping in America is about celebrating property ownership, even to the extent that people never really wanted to leave their homes where properties were secure. So, I tried to capture the irony with a photo.

Being off the grid for this type of camping, which is very popular in America, is about something other than roughing it. It’s not about denying yourself of the luxuries of the modern world; it’s about taking those luxuries into nature and enjoying it with all the comforts of home. When you want a shower, you get all cleaned up in your own space. You don’t have to share it with other people. You bring your food. You sleep in your bed. You watch TV when you aren’t listening to all the woodpeckers working on trees in the canopy overhead. You live well, exceptionally well. And it is pretty nice to travel with all your stuff to many different places and still have the same bed, refrigerator, stove, and bathroom. My wife and I have become so in love with this life that we dislike using public restrooms at gas stops. We like to go in our RV and have everything nice and clean. It is the American way of enjoying nature. But when you go to these campsites, one thing is prominent; nature is not in charge; the people are. RV campers love nature, but nature is not in control. Property ownership is, and I found it particularly interesting to be reading the material I was in such an area where property ownership was on full display to such a large extent. Behind my campsite was the boat ramp where people were putting their boats in and out of the lake all day, and it was enjoyable to see all the different kinds of crafts that people had.

Of course, I have been talking about Glenn Beck’s new book a lot. He did a great job with it; it is full of excellent information, which is undoubtedly what most news media needs to cover. ‘Dark Future’ is essentially pulling back the veil of the Klaus Schwab Great Narrative that the World Economic Forum has been planning behind the scenes of the United Nations and the European Union to incorporate the United States into their schemes of full Marxism and China-style communism through a nefarious attack of the global financial institutions. These people have lost touch with reality, but they have convinced enough people who have also lost touch with reality that they are predicting the future and forming the end reality. And that the end was inevitable. Well, I professionally talk to people who think like these World Economic Forum people a lot. There is a reason my wife and I have traveled so much. It’s our way of keeping it real, of not losing touch with reality, by interacting with reality abundantly. Immediately after we spent a week at Prizer’s Point, we traveled over 300 miles up to Darke County, Ohio, for the Annie Oakley competitions. So it was one thing after another for us, never stopping for air but always having the consistency of our mobile life living out of our RV. That kind of life would have helped the World Economic Forum types not lose touch with their liberal reality, which they have done. And most Americans blow them off as irrelevant. But as Beck’s book explains, they are under the assumption that they will rule the world; they will take all our property and force us to rent from them. And they believe that they already possess the power. But they believe it because they don’t know Americans like I do.

Our camp is in the foreground, some of my kids are in the background along the lake.

Prizer Point has a nice floating restaurant and general store on the lake connected to our campsite by only a thin little bridge. The staff at the camp was all very nice; it was a very well-managed place. But it felt like being off the grid, away from the world just enough to see everything very clearly. We had been to other nice campsites this year, and the general theme was evident, and I found it very reassuring. People were willing to live and let live so long as nobody messed with them. People were not taking Klaus Schwab and Bill Gates very seriously because they had lots of private property that allowed them to get away from their vile little clutches. But the minute they felt threatened by those kinds of people, that was another story. My wife and I went to the store several times to get ice cream and enjoyed eating it while watching all the boats come and go. And I could see that Klaus and the gang were facing some outraged Americans shortly, far more angry and hostile than they were prepared to deal with. And that was what I was looking for while spending most of the summer of 2023 on vacation. We’re not done with traveling for the year, not by a long shot. We have some vast trips coming up on the horizon with our various RV rigs. But everything became very clear somewhere between Prizer Point, the Darke County fairgrounds, and some wonderful books, especially that Glenn Beck book. I saw in a vision the end of the World Economic Forum crashing and burning under their misguided assumptions. And that made it a wonderful vacation season. Private property in America would be the straw that breaks the back of the World Economic Forum. And it would be a pleasure to watch.

The Scam of Cyber Security: What’s the rush for all this technology–who benefits from it–not us

Each week I have a lot of people trying to waste my time regarding cyber security, and I’ll say here what I say to all of them.  I don’t trust computers, I think it’s ridiculous to put so much private information online, and I can live quite well without it.  Cyber security is a scam, like many things from institutions today.  The same people who will likely hack your computer and steal your information are the same people who are telling you that cyber security is the only way you can survive in the future.  This is the case with Microsoft from the 90s.  People realized that Windows-based systems were particularly vulnerable to viruses.  Then, of course, to operate Windows, you would have to subscribe to some anti-virus software to use the dumb program.  It’s still that way primarily, and it all comes down to a scam.  Ironically, this is precisely how Bill Gates has inserted himself into the world as the Health Minister, he helps unleash viruses so that you have to buy the vaccine he is behind to control all of society.  If a company is talking about cyber security, they are telling you that their software isn’t ready for prime time and that the only people who benefit from it are the bad guys in the world.  The most secure thing to do would be not to use their software if they find that they, as a company, can’t provide that level of security for their customers.  My policy is to keep as little online so that some propped-up villain can’t hack it.  If these systems aren’t more secure than they claim, why use them?  The only people benefiting from all these cybersecurity methods are those making the software. 

All the two-way authentication methods need to be faster.  If you have to slow down your life as much as these modern companies suggest, then all the tech gadgets are worthless.  It’s regressing our culture, not making it better.  With all this concern over A.I. hackers and hackers having easy access to our online activity, why are we making ourselves so vulnerable?  The only people benefiting are the one-world government types who want to funnel all information into a centralized source so they can control us.  Technology isn’t helping the rest of us improve our lives.  Increasingly, we are finding that we must wait for technology to catch up.  I hear from many IT departments worldwide who essentially think it is permissible to slow down their companies and their opportunities for production because they believe that cyber security is more of a priority.  I had a case recently where I was working late at night on multiple projects, at around 1 to 2 in the morning, and suddenly my computer went into a mandatory update.  I didn’t tell it to, it assumed that at the late hours, I would be sleeping, so it went into an update mode that took well over 15 minutes.  The computer figured I had all the time in the world to sit around waiting on it to do its stupid thing.  But I didn’t have the time.  I tossed the computer across the room and turned to the old-fashioned way of doing things, with sheets of paper and raw calculations written upon them.  If technology doesn’t speed my life up and make it better, then it’s an enemy.  It’s that simple. 

Technology is not in charge, as much as the World Economic Forum people want us all to believe.  They are the ones who are creating the marketplace for all the identity theft and other fraudulent activity online.  Because they want technology to take over the world essentially, they are pushing it out upon the world too fast because they want it. It certainly isn’t beneficial for us ordinary people.  It helps them get to their cashless society, digital fraud-based currencies, and centralized control of all means of production.  That’s what they are after with their double authentication codes, where every time you are away from your computer for a few minutes, you must sign back in with passwords that constantly change.  And to work your computer, you have to have a phone tracking you all over the place so that some mindless A.I. program can call you to ensure you are using the computer.  Online banking only helps these power-hungry globalists get control of our lives, making us wait on them to get their products to work right.  But if everything is so insecure, then why are we using it in the first place?  What’s the benefit?  Those are the questions we should be asking.  We should not be waiting on technology to “work.”  I would rather deal with a person directly than some computer interface.  Call it old-fashioned, but I don’t want to mess with all that ridiculous security.  It’s not worth it to me to use some computer that is essentially spying on everything I do so that it can go to the NSA to be analyzed by hostile forces in government.  That isn’t my idea of an intelligent approach to the future. 

If these computer interfaces are so insecure, the companies putting them out need to go back to the drawing board and figure out how to improve them before offering them to the marketplace.  There is no rush for most of us.  The push for computers and online transactions to become such a big part of our lives comes from the goals of the United Nations and their masters at the World Economic Forum.  They want us to be inconvenienced with their products to fulfill their dumb 2030 targets for international commerce, which takes power away from countries where they can manage them and puts it all in the hands of mindless European bureaucrats.  They are the ones who want digital currencies that they can manipulate with Modern Monetary Theory and can turn all of society into a cashless society.  So the burden for security falls on them.  Not the rest of us slowed down to a mind-numbing speed because of all their dumb technology and the cyber security needed to make it usable.  Cyber security, as it has always been, is a scam to make technology appear better than it is.  Forcing it into the marketplace has only created a new breed of criminal in the world, the hackers who otherwise would have a more challenging time stealing people’s money.  Technology makes it easier for them to prey on innocent people, which Bill Gates is pleased about.  But for the rest of us, we should be asking why we are rushing to get all this technology into the marketplace only to be restricted by its limits.  All the companies buying into this cyber security scam will find themselves less profitable and greatly limited by the slowness of technology rather than any real benefits.  If something is as insecure as computer technology over the internet, we shouldn’t use it for anything other than information.  But personal banking and business networks should be done the old-fashioned way until technology can get it together as it is now. It’s just a scam that only benefits the bad guys in the world.  And why would we want to do that?

Who is Blackstone and Why do they Want to Buy Your House

Like Blackrock, why do all these hostile WEF-linked companies all have “black” in their title, such as Blackstone, the investment firm that is buying up huge amounts of personal homes to make Americans from owners to renters, to fulfill the strategy of the World Economic Forum, “you will own nothing by 2030 and be happy?”  But many people don’t have time to know who these companies are or how they are attacking their way of life.  So here is a bit of history about Blackstone so that everyone can have some basic foundation as to who they are and what role they play in trying to take over the world for the World Economic Forum through a strategy by the Federal Reserve to print fake money and flow it into Wall Street to essentially give artificial buying power to all the WEF linked investment companies that are involved in the Great Reset, with the help of their representative, the Biden administration.

Blackstone is one of the most influential investment firms in the world today. With a long and storied history that dates back to the mid-1980s, this company has become a household name in finance and investing circles. But what exactly is Blackstone, and what makes it so special?

At its core, Blackstone is a private equity firm that specializes in alternative investments. This means that the company invests in assets that are not typically available to the general public, such as real estate, private equity, and credit. By doing so, Blackstone is able to generate significant returns for its investors, often outpacing more traditional investment strategies.

But what sets Blackstone apart from other private equity firms is its size and scope. With over $500 billion in assets under management, Blackstone is one of the largest investment firms in the world. And with offices in over 30 countries, the company has a truly global reach.

One of the keys to Blackstone’s success is its focus on long-term investments. Unlike many other investment firms that are focused on short-term gains, Blackstone takes a more patient approach to investing. This allows the company to identify opportunities that others may overlook, and to build long-term value in the assets it invests in.

Another important factor in Blackstone’s success is its team of experienced professionals. Led by CEO Stephen Schwarzman, Blackstone’s team includes some of the most talented and respected individuals in the finance industry. With decades of experience and a deep understanding of the markets, these professionals are able to identify opportunities and manage risks in a way that few others can.

But while Blackstone has achieved great success over the years, it has not been without its challenges. The company has faced criticism from some quarters for its role in the 2008 financial crisis, and has also been accused of profiting from the misery of others through its investments in distressed debt.

Despite these challenges, Blackstone remains one of the most important and influential investment firms in the world today. With its focus on long-term investments, its team of talented professionals, and its global reach, Blackstone is well-positioned to continue generating significant returns for its investors for many years to come.

In conclusion, Blackstone is a unique and powerful investment firm that has achieved great success over the years. With its focus on long-term investments, its team of experienced professionals, and its global reach, Blackstone is a force to be reckoned with in the finance industry. While it may face challenges in the years ahead, there is no doubt that Blackstone will continue to be a leading player in the world of investing for many years to come.

The Morality of Speed: Bad guys are slow, good guys are fast

I talk about it every year, and it’s that time again for the Annie Oakley Festival in Darke County, Ohio, which is a yearly vacation for me. And I continue to get asked about it because it’s work for a lot of people but a paradise for me. I have participated in several annual events at the Annie Oakley Festival, some for over 20 years. And out of all the things I could do, I find this particular weekend, the last one of each July, as my refuge from the mundane effects of the Administrative State. I hate slow people in life. Even though most people are pretty slow, they frustrate me tremendously, and out of all the other days of the year when I have to deal with them, I always look forward to the Annie Oakley Festival because it is there where speed and accuracy are celebrated in the traditional American ways rather than this slow New World Order globalism garbage. I love speed and have always been obsessed with it because when it is experienced, there is a morality to it that is unique to American culture, and each year at that event, I get to experience it without restriction and be around other people who appreciate it with a kind of raw understanding of morality. The world under the misguidance of the Administrative State is designed for slow, stupid people, and I find it pathetic. My idea of a vacation is to be away from those kinds of people, even though I may be exhausted at the end of all the competitions, which last all weekend. It’s a good tired. Because it is refreshing to be away from slow people, lazy people, and people who hide behind the Administrative State to appear valuable when all they are, are mindless bureaucrats.

Many of the old stunt performers, cowboys, gunslingers, and general roughnecks I hang around in some of these Western preservation groups all understand something that most people have forgotten, which will likely be returning shortly. In traditional American Westerns, which most of the world still enjoys, speed dominating evil is a consistent theme at the core of all values. When the good guy was faster to a dueler’s pistol, we cheered for the demise of the slower bad guy—the villain. (villains lost because they are slow) The value of speed was directly connected to the morality of capitalism, and society generally understood the metaphor. I spoke this year with many of these old fast-draw professionals who feel like they are a dying breed. I told them this year that I thought that young people might find themselves very attracted to the old fast-draw traits as globalism’s effects were failing worldwide, and people would be looking for a replacement. There are consistently good Westerns doing well on streaming services, like Hell on Wheels, and shows like Yellowstone. Some video games, like Red Dead Redemption, are very popular with young people, so it’s not like Westerns are dead or dying. It would only take a film studio like Angel Studios to start making traditional Westerns again, and people would flock to see them because they enjoy those kinds of stories. Hollywood may be a dying business model, but that doesn’t mean the Western will die with it. Hollywood used to be all about Westerns, and their demise started when they stopped committing themselves to Westerns. You can tell how people feel about Westerns at these shows I go to, especially the fast-draw events. There is always a crowd watching, and we are amazed that we shoot real guns that fast, competitively. Most of them have only witnessed that in movies and television shows.

Part of the suppression of Westerns, starting with those who finance movies, was the desire to build a global administrative state to mask production from performance expectations.  As globalism has proposed, the administrative state’s goal is to slow down the world to the communist intentions of centralized authority.  Those were the villains in the old Westerns, so it’s no wonder they don’t like Western values.  They want to slow the world down with bureaucracy so that centralized communism can rule.  But they are so slow and pathetic.  No wonder they want to legalize marijuana because they want people brain dead and too slow to think, to ask questions, and to meet reality head-on.  Most of my life is about dealing with slow-minded administrative state losers who seem only to want to slow things down.  So when I get to compete at Annie Oakley, speed becomes the priority, and it is just so refreshing.  I practice Fast Draw most every day in some form or another, so I’m always thinking fast about things.  But to express that speed in public, where people appreciate it, is very refreshing.  Usually, this Annie Oakley event charges me up for the rest of the year, just those few days.  I attend other fast draw events throughout the year, but what makes Annie Oakley stand out is that it’s done in a public forum with audience attendance.  Most competitions are held in private venues, so the general public cannot witness them.  At Annie Oakley, it feels like it would be like to have been in the Buffalo Bill Wild West Show.  And I love it!

Many Americans have been polite about the slow world of the administrative state and the ridiculous European concepts of the World Economic Forum.  They don’t have a culture in Europe or Asia where people can express themselves with guns, rapid draw in the classic Western way of dueling a bad guy as the Bible would define villainy, to establish individualized law and order.  Speed was the way to achieve justice, and the action was from a superior individual against the masses of slower bandits.  I’ve never learned to accept a lack of speed in life, no matter what it is, production, driving down the road, going to the grocery, everything.  I read fast.  I think fast.  I am happiest when things are fast.  I’m a guy who will drive a 51-foot RV rig at 85 miles per hour, happily zipping in and out of traffic, and I don’t care how much gas it burns.  Because I like to go fast.  But there isn’t much more satisfying in life than the fast draw events at Annie Oakley, whether with bullwhips or traditional six guns.  The participants and the audience appreciate speed; when you see it, you know all is right with the world.  And in the end, when the World Economic Forum types must face reality and deal with the speed of American culture outside of their Davos forums, where they talk to each other in a vacuum, they’re going to learn that they are the bad guy, and slowness is not going to be acceptable.  Americans like things fast, whether it’s a Chick-fil-A drive-thru, highway traffic, or a running back on a football team.  Americans want things quickly, and Cowboy Fast Draw represents American culture in so many satisfying ways that I am happiest when I compete with other fast gunslingers.  I’m more comfortable than anywhere on Earth under any condition.  And I never get tired of it.  Slow people are terrible.  But fast people, the world could use a lot more of those.

Testimony about UFOs to Congress Under Oath: Governments that lie to people are far more dangerous than aliens

This is the problem with collectivist-based systems; I told you guys what was happening with the UFOs.  Nobody is ever in charge when the Administrative State puts forth an explanation.  This is also why studying ancient cultures and what you can learn from their attempts and mistakes is good.  Collectivism has yet to work where society behaves like some organism of cells in a body without a brain.  In such a society of goo, it’s easy to hide genuinely terrible things, and that is the summary of what kind of UFO testimony has been put forth to members of Congress under sworn disclosure.  To settle the matter, I have been spending a lot more time this year talking about UFOs because I didn’t want people to be shocked when the government started talking in a way that would migrate to full disclosure.  That is our government and people from other planets, and not just one species, but many, over ten have been talking for a long time.  And they have been sharing information all that time and hiding it from the general public for all the same reasons churches didn’t want people reading the Bible for themselves but wanted a priest to interpret everything for them or a regional king so that there would be some insulation between our society and these interplanetary interactions.  In this increasingly open world, it’s getting harder to keep quiet.  It was much easier back when three networks performed broadcast television and a few radio stations.  The government could control, to some extent, the newspapers, and everyone reported the same sort of thing, as strong personalities headed most corporations.  But in these days, where the Administrative State essentially runs like a blob of collectivism, and nobody is really in charge of anything, the reports to Congress that UFOs have been coming and going and that it is more than machinery that we have been gathering and analyzing, but people too has been shocking to some.  It’s information that isn’t new but is bursting forth because of all the other things that are suddenly much worse to realize. 

Because of mass collectivism, nobody is ever responsible for anything, and now that the mistakes of steering society in that direction have been obvious and are falling apart everywhere, that same mass organism of mass blob is trying to conceal itself with UFO talk, just as I have been saying for a few years now was going to happen.  I have known about this for a long time and am not surprised by these recent reports.  It’s only to those who have assumed that the government’s secrecy on the matter had a point of social safety where the disillusionment comes into play.  The evidence shows that visitors from all over the current galaxy and universe, who exist on many dimensional levels, are relatively abundant.  But it doesn’t fit well within the understanding that people are too busy taking their kids to soccer practice to wrap their minds around the concept.  But in most ancient cultures, they interacted with elements of the supernatural, most of which sound like modern-day UFO abductions.  Today’s governments have bypassed that information and contained it within a safety narrative to show society they were in control of the situation and needed tax money to keep mysterious things from coming in the night and abducting them to anal probes.  In the past, as governments rose and fell, these stories fell to religions to explain, which embodies most of what we know about mythology. 

My position on UFOs is not that they are a big deal but that we are essentially them.  We come from all over the place.  And if they were so much brighter than we were, we’d know it by now.  The government has maintained the illusion that they are superior for their own needs to obtain power, driven by mass collectivism.   But now there are so many crimes that have been committed by government, the mass tampering with the global economy, the threat of technology to take over the world essentially, the deaths caused by government bioweapons such as Covid, and the fake wars that are losing their effect on the world stage.  Nobody cares about Ukraine, Russia, or the other propped-up bodies on Earth, such as China.  People are sick of being lied to.  They are sick of stolen elections.  They are sick of the government trying to micromanage their lives with vaccines, fake media, and corrupt politics, all run by the blob of collectivism presented to us as abundant, global communism.  I have said for years that as reckless as government has been, with all its lack of leadership, it exists for the animal impulses of sex, food, and material acquisition which is evident if you ever visit the suburbs of current-day Washington D.C., and nothing else.  For all the power of government that it has acquired through secret knowledge, it has essentially wasted it all on nonsense, which is the net result of the congressional testimony of July 2023, and the media reporting on it as if it’s one of the biggest news stories in the history of the world.  It’s not. 

Studying ancient cultures is fun for me and has been infinitely fascinating because people believed what they did and for how long.  And to what extent they invested themselves into a future and how successful their string of thoughts was.  I concluded that most civilizations received a jump start by interacting with celestial travelers.  Those travelers aren’t much more intelligent or wiser than we are today; they have just developed a few more toys to play with because they come from societies that lasted longer and had the means to build them.  But they have the same problem everyone else does; they don’t have stable communities that last infinitely, and the struggle between individual leadership and classic blob collectivism is a genuine problem not just here on Earth but throughout the galaxy.  And it’s only at the end of such a cycle, as we are in now, that reluctant governments are finally willing to admit to what has been known all along.  The evidence is all around us and is grotesquely evident in places like Peru, where deforestation has revealed many ancient cultures that predate the Incans by many thousands of years.  Probably, tens of thousands of years.  Perhaps hundreds and millions, and there is nothing left of those cultures because of the rate of erosion geologically.  It is only now that this criminal government, with all its tampering with the human race and is now stacked up with mistake upon mistake upon error, that they are willing to give up a little power of knowledge to hopefully suppress their truly criminal complicity in destroying the human race yet again, for the thousandth time.  The UFO talk is to cover up their crimes against humanity.  Sure, the UFOs are real.  The interaction with many species from many other planets all over the galaxy is quite common.  Unfortunately, they have been talking to the wrong people, the governments of the world, who have been approaching them with the false philosophy of kingly control over mass populations.  And as it always has, that is precisely how you destroy a society, and advancement stops every time.  UFOs and their occupants are not a big deal.  But governments that lie to their people are one of the most destructive elements in the universe.  And is the real story we should be concerned with.  The government keeps the information a secret for national security reasons. But they ask for more power based on all the things you don’t know that only they interpret are dangerous. Trust them! But experience says they are far more dangerous than what aliens might bring with them.  They ask for more power over things only they know about for reasons only they understand, which was a con game from the beginning.
