And I 9 00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:26,639 Speaker 1: am joined in the studio today with Michelle Weekly. You 10 00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:30,680 Speaker 1: can find her on Twitter at at Michelle Weekly. You know, Michelle, 11 00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:33,280 Speaker 1: you have a pretty interesting story. Been around the world, 12 00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:36,440 Speaker 1: lived in the Middle East, China. You know a lot 13 00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:39,120 Speaker 1: of people like myself talk about a lot of those 14 00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:43,160 Speaker 1: countries without ever having been there. You've done that. Now 15 00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:48,040 Speaker 1: you sell you're an anti federalist freedom maximist. Pretty interesting. 16 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:53,840 Speaker 1: What does that mean? An anti federalist freedom maximalist. Sure, so, 17 00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:56,560 Speaker 1: as you said, I spent a lot of time abroad 18 00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:02,280 Speaker 1: in really authoritarian countries and there's pros and cons to that. 19 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:09,119 Speaker 1: But I think ultimately, as we've seen since COVID, having 20 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:11,800 Speaker 1: the state be able to control everything that you do 21 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:14,760 Speaker 1: is not exactly a world that we want to live 22 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:18,080 Speaker 1: in So I came back to the States in twenty 23 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:24,319 Speaker 1: eighteen and moved to Florida, and I am fighting for 24 00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:27,679 Speaker 1: freedom from the controls of the federal government and as 25 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:33,440 Speaker 1: much so as possible from the state as well. So 26 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 1: that's what you mean anti federalist. Yeah, I think the 27 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 1: US federal government has just taken way too much power 28 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:45,319 Speaker 1: and that they're seeking to be more and more like 29 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:47,319 Speaker 1: some of these countries that we see in the Middle 30 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 1: East in Asia and sort of do away with states rights. 31 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 1: So where were you in the Middle East. I was 32 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 1: in Dubai for several years, and then I was working 33 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 1: in China. I never actually lived in China, but I 34 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 1: was there several weeks at a time, in both Beijing 35 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 1: and Shanghai. What were you doing in Dubai. I was 36 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 1: working in the tech startup space, so I worked at 37 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 1: one of the opportunity zones there and then I got 38 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 1: recruited to work in foreign direct investment, and that's how 39 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,920 Speaker 1: I ended up in China, working with one of their 40 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:35,360 Speaker 1: the largest land developers in China. What's a foreign direct investment? 41 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I just manages people that want to invest 42 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 1: in the country. Yeah, So there's this whole massive ecosystem 43 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 1: that I think a lot of people don't realize is 44 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 1: even out there. Foreign direct investment is defined pretty simply 45 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:52,520 Speaker 1: as you know, state and country level investment, whether it's 46 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: by governments or corporations into governments and corporations in other countries. 47 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:04,520 Speaker 1: But about twenty percent of the world's global trade goes 48 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: through these foreign direct investment channels, and most of that 49 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:14,359 Speaker 1: is done through world free trade zones. And within those 50 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:18,960 Speaker 1: free trade zones, there's a lot of government regulations and 51 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 1: rid tape that just doesn't exist. So most of what 52 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 1: we're seeing everybody's fighting about all of these rules and 53 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 1: restrictions that are being made, but it's all just sort 54 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:34,440 Speaker 1: of a show because nobody's even following those rules. They're 55 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 1: utilizing these trade zones. How does that all tie in with, 56 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 1: you know, globalist agendas that's going on over there. Sure, 57 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: So when I got recruited to work in foreign direct investment, 58 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 1: I'd never even heard of the World Economic Forum, but 59 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 1: that is the sort of epicenter of what's happening in 60 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 1: foreign direct investment and global trade at that level. So 61 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 1: they're all I think that they are is an agenda 62 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 1: at the highest level not to sound, you know, like 63 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 1: a conspiracy theorist, but they really want a one world 64 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 1: government and for all of the governments to sort of 65 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 1: say what its citizens can and can't do. Well, it's 66 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 1: not that you think there is agenda. Of course there's 67 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: an agenda. They write books about it and they put 68 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 1: it on the website, right right. They're not really hiding 69 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 1: it anymore. I think they used to a little bit, 70 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 1: but not so much anymore. Yeah, I mean we've had 71 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:42,239 Speaker 1: we've had the you know, the UN Agenda twenty twenty 72 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,279 Speaker 1: and twenty thirty. We got the World that coming form 73 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,840 Speaker 1: with stand sustainable development goals, we got the books. I mean, 74 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 1: they've told us what they want. I mean to think 75 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:53,280 Speaker 1: that anybody thinks that's crazy that rich people might get 76 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:58,080 Speaker 1: together to discuss ways they could continue to build their empire. Like, 77 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:00,080 Speaker 1: of course they do. That's that's what everybody does. We 78 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 1: all do that. So it's like it's it's not about 79 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:06,159 Speaker 1: an agenda, conspiracy, of course it is. You know, they say, 80 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 1: this is the thing that bothers me is that Harvard 81 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,919 Speaker 1: NBA did a study. Only three percent of people in 82 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 1: the Harvard NBA program had written down goals The people 83 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 1: that had written down goals averaged more than ten times 84 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 1: the combined income of the ninety seven percent that didn't 85 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:26,600 Speaker 1: have written down goals. I believe that. And so the 86 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:31,159 Speaker 1: WEF has written down goals, right, Bill Gates and George 87 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 1: Sorros have written down goals, the UN has written down goals, 88 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 1: But most people don't, and that means they're way more 89 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 1: likely to get their written down goals through. You know 90 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,799 Speaker 1: when you get down to that. Jumping over to China 91 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 1: for a minute, you said that you had worked in 92 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 1: financing real estate or real estate development over in China. 93 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:56,280 Speaker 1: Real estate development. Yeah, so we had a partnership with 94 00:05:56,320 --> 00:06:01,040 Speaker 1: the second largest real estate developer, CFLD over there, and 95 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:06,040 Speaker 1: this was before all of the defaults that were happening. 96 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 1: So have you seen firsthand, like all the ghost cities 97 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:14,479 Speaker 1: that are over there. I have in we I was 98 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: over there in twenty sixteen, twenty seventeen, and they gave 99 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:23,839 Speaker 1: us tours of Beijing and all of the industrial and 100 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:27,360 Speaker 1: residential development that was happening. And it was really really 101 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 1: wild to see because we would we spent days going 102 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 1: on these tours and they would take us out over 103 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 1: we'd go out in the helicopter and land in the 104 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 1: middle of some city, and it was easy to land 105 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 1: on the street because there were no cars. There might 106 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 1: have been a couple of bikers who would stop by 107 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,359 Speaker 1: and stare, and then they would take us on a 108 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 1: bus to what was basically a model home, but on 109 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 1: a much much larger scale. They were model cities. Sort 110 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 1: of if you think about going to a model home 111 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 1: and a new construction site, you know, there's a couple 112 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,679 Speaker 1: of houses built, and you can see the plots for 113 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 1: the rest of the development, and so that's really what 114 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 1: they were doing on a massive scale, and they were 115 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,360 Speaker 1: calling them cities, but nobody was living there, and they 116 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 1: were wrapping all of those numbers up and claiming that 117 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 1: it was real development, and it wasn't. It was just 118 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 1: it was they were ghost towns. But even this is 119 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 1: one of the things that really started to break my 120 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 1: mind out of the matrix and start to question kind 121 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 1: of how it all functioned, is while we were there, 122 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 1: everyone pretended that everything was cool, like no one said 123 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 1: a single word about You claim that these cities are complete, 124 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 1: but they're at two percent occupancy, and the last one 125 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 1: we just went to was at zero percent occupancy. So 126 00:07:57,080 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 1: there's hundreds and hundreds of these developments all over just 127 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 1: like that, just ghost cities everywhere getting the numbers up. 128 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 1: I guess. So you know, I saw you tweet something 129 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 1: yesterday talking about the Middle East and saying that this 130 00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 1: is an excellent summary of what is legitimately the most 131 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 1: important thing happening on the planet right now. I want 132 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 1: you to explain that as somebody who's lived over there 133 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 1: in the Middle East. I think it's I think it's 134 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:32,319 Speaker 1: kind of important to understand. So I want to talk 135 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:33,839 Speaker 1: about that in a minute, and then I want to 136 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 1: kind of go run through a couple other headlines that 137 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 1: I saw this week that I thought were pretty interesting. 138 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:39,680 Speaker 1: I want to discuss with you. If you're just tuning 139 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 1: in you're listening to the Mark Mos Show. Of course, 140 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 1: we're talking about the decentralized revolution and how the world 141 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:46,719 Speaker 1: is changing right before our very eyes, and we look 142 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 1: at it through the lens of politics, finance, and technology, 143 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,679 Speaker 1: which of course is bitcoin that's changing the world. I'm 144 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 1: joined with a special guest, Michelle Weekly. You can find 145 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 1: her on Twitter at Michelle Weekly, and we're getting her 146 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 1: perspective of someone who's been boots on the ground living 147 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: in these other countries and now considers herself a freedom maximus, 148 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 1: which of course I have in my bio as well. 149 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 1: So we're gonna dig into more on that. Talk about 150 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 1: what is going on in the Middle East. From someone 151 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 1: who's been over there, We've got a whole lot to 152 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 1: cover when we come back. Don't go away. I take 153 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:20,320 Speaker 1: it just a quick break. I'll be right back. All right, 154 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 1: Welcome back. If you're just doing it and you're listening 155 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,319 Speaker 1: to the Mark mo Show. We're talking about the decentralized 156 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 1: revolution of them, joined by Michelle Weekly. You can find 157 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 1: her on Twitter at Michelle Weekly. We're talking about some 158 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: kind of boots on the ground stuff that's been going on. 159 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:33,560 Speaker 1: And like I said before the break, Michelle, I saw 160 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,839 Speaker 1: you tweeted something yesterday I think it was or day 161 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,200 Speaker 1: before talking about what's going on in the Middle East 162 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:42,559 Speaker 1: and saying it's potentially the most important thing on the 163 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,400 Speaker 1: entire planet right now, which is a pretty big claim. 164 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 1: What's going on over there that's so important. Sure, so 165 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 1: a lot of people don't know that China has brokered 166 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 1: a deal between Saudi and Iran, and those two countries, 167 00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 1: the Shiets and the Zunis, which are two different type 168 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 1: of the different Muslim population. They've been fighting for thousands 169 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 1: of years, So this is really a huge, huge deal. 170 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:16,840 Speaker 1: And I think that China. China's goal is dominance. China's 171 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 1: goal is to overtake the US as the world leader 172 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:26,600 Speaker 1: globally economically, as a global dominance, and they're doing that 173 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 1: by adding to bricks and so they've brokered a deal 174 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:37,839 Speaker 1: between Iran and Saudi and now they're in conversations with 175 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:41,960 Speaker 1: both of those countries to join the Bricks Alliance. So 176 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 1: if that happens, then it's really really going to weaken 177 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 1: the US position. And it's also dedollarizing all of the 178 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 1: oil trade. So with the new relationships that they're developing now, 179 00:10:56,040 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 1: they're talking to Saudi about purchasing oils oil in the yen, 180 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 1: which is something that they've just done with Russia. So 181 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,439 Speaker 1: I know, you talk a lot about dedollarization, and I 182 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:11,839 Speaker 1: think we're seeing that happen right now with this deal. 183 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:19,080 Speaker 1: So if they if they broker peace, then they start 184 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 1: globally cooperating with each other exactly, And it just sort 185 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 1: of pushes the United States out of the picture because 186 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 1: right now the United States involves itself in a lot 187 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 1: of what's happening around the world. But if China is 188 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 1: brokering peace between all the rest of the world, then 189 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:41,440 Speaker 1: we don't need to be involved. And so I think 190 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 1: that they are strategically pushing the United States out of 191 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 1: the room. Yeah, it's interesting. You know, everybody thought that 192 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 1: Donald Trump was going to come in be some psychopath. 193 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 1: We can't have someone like him, and he's going to 194 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 1: lead us to nuclear war. No, no, no, right, and 195 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 1: force before him, Obama was the number one, you know, 196 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 1: bomb dropper in the world. I think it was dropping 197 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,839 Speaker 1: like twelve bombs a day or something like that. And 198 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 1: Trump was going to lead us to nuclear war. But 199 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,840 Speaker 1: he actually had brokered peace in the Middle East as well, right, 200 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:15,680 Speaker 1: And a lot of people don't know that. Of course 201 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 1: they've got no coverage. Yeah, so they were trying to 202 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,840 Speaker 1: nominate him for a Nobel Prize, a peace prize. Right, 203 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:25,720 Speaker 1: for the first time in for however many decades, we 204 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 1: actually had peace in the Middle East. Yeah, and we 205 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 1: didn't have nuclear war, right, And now here we are, 206 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 1: the Middle East is on fire. We have nuclear war 207 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,719 Speaker 1: from potential three sides. Potentially. I ran in Israel going 208 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:39,959 Speaker 1: to nuclear war. We got Russia obviously over there, Ukraine 209 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 1: in the United States, and then we have China over 210 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 1: on the other side, potentially three nuclear war threats. It 211 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 1: wasn't Trump, it was Biden that put us there. But 212 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,440 Speaker 1: to your point, the piece that was in the Middle 213 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 1: East got destabilized, and now here we are making it 214 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 1: look like it could be presidency that could be the peacemaker, 215 00:12:55,640 --> 00:13:00,439 Speaker 1: the kingmaker, which would be pretty bad. You know, even 216 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 1: talking about you know, just Russia and China. They've tried 217 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 1: to broke our peace many times. They've tried to sit 218 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 1: down and establish peace many times. M Israel has been 219 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 1: there trying to establish peace, and the United States continue 220 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:13,280 Speaker 1: to say no, no, no, no, no, it can't happen. 221 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:17,360 Speaker 1: And I saw even just when presidents she was over 222 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 1: there this week, all the leadership in the United States 223 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,839 Speaker 1: is saying no, this, this could lead to a cease fire. 224 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 1: That would be so bad. I'm like, what, like, right, 225 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 1: it makes no sense. Leading to a ceasefire is bad. 226 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 1: I thought that's what we want, isn't it right? Thinking 227 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 1: you know, oh, but that would allow Russia time to regroup. 228 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 1: It's like, oh my gosh, um, yeah, I mean, to 229 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:43,880 Speaker 1: your point, if g turns into be the peacemaker. I mean, 230 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 1: it pushes the United States out. The problem that I 231 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,840 Speaker 1: have is that, um, and you've lived abroad, so you 232 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 1: you know better. But you know, I hear a lot 233 00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 1: about I haven't haven't been in the Middle East or China, 234 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 1: but I know a lot of countries don't necessarily like 235 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:59,400 Speaker 1: Americans all that much. Um. A lot of countries don't 236 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,680 Speaker 1: allow Americans open bank accounts, don't deal with the irs, 237 00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 1: and all those things. And it seems like I had 238 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:09,679 Speaker 1: reported on China put out a paper last month in February, 239 00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 1: the Office of Foreign Affairs, People's Republic of China, and 240 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 1: it basically said the quiet parts out loud. Basically, China 241 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 1: put the government of trying to put this paper out 242 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:23,480 Speaker 1: that went out to the whole world, and they basically 243 00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 1: said that the US is the purveyor of terror around 244 00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:31,480 Speaker 1: the world. They used the dollar for colonialism, they extract 245 00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 1: value through senior age. They said that the dollar is 246 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 1: the main source of instability, and they said that the 247 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 1: United States has been behind every single color revolution since 248 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 1: two thousand and three. And so that's like, that's just like, look, 249 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 1: we know what you're doing. The whole world sees what 250 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 1: the United States is doing. In the United States, we 251 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:54,480 Speaker 1: have this viewpoint where it's like, oh, we're fighting for 252 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 1: peace and democracy around the world, but the rest of 253 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 1: the world is like, whoa, you guys are a terrorist organization. Right, Yeah. 254 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 1: Then I was so shocked and saddened to see I 255 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 1: think two days ago the president of Mexico is now saying, hey, look, 256 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:12,160 Speaker 1: the United States, you guys are bad characters. Like this 257 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 1: whole thing with Donald Trump that you're trying to do 258 00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 1: in New York, that you guys are bad. What you're 259 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 1: doing over here, colonalism, what you're doing in Ukraine. I mean, 260 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 1: he denounced the whole thing. It's like the whole world 261 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:23,160 Speaker 1: seems to see this except for us. Is that maybe 262 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 1: a feeling or picture you got when you traveled or 263 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:28,800 Speaker 1: lived overseas. Absolutely so, I think as a whole, the 264 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 1: people of these countries love American. I mean, American has 265 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 1: really exported its culture and so the everyday people that 266 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 1: you meet, they love Americans. But the governments themselves, they, 267 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 1: like you said, they stay the quiet part out loud. 268 00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 1: Nobody is afraid to say out loud what the US 269 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 1: is doing. And the fact is is that the US 270 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 1: is involved in most of the wars and color revolutions 271 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:57,080 Speaker 1: and all of the upheaval that's happening around the world. 272 00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 1: I was in China in twenty sixteen when the election 273 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 1: was happening here, and I'll have to tell you, everybody 274 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:11,040 Speaker 1: over there loved Trump and they were so excited that 275 00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:13,600 Speaker 1: we had this man who was going to stick up 276 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:17,200 Speaker 1: for our people. And the sentiment was so different. When 277 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:20,000 Speaker 1: I came back to the United States in at the 278 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 1: very end of twenty seventeen, so about twenty eighteen, it 279 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 1: was really culture shock because I had no idea what 280 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:27,840 Speaker 1: was happening over here and the way that they had 281 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:31,840 Speaker 1: gone after him. I knew that he was a polarizing figure, 282 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 1: but I really had no clue that they had used 283 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 1: him to further drive the divide that's happening here in 284 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:42,000 Speaker 1: the United States, and I think that that's only escalated 285 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 1: and it's tearing this country apart. Yeah, it's crazy. And 286 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 1: now I saw today too, even now China is getting 287 00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:56,160 Speaker 1: behind this Nordstream investigation. So it's like, you know, the 288 00:16:56,280 --> 00:17:00,240 Speaker 1: US put out or somehow some paper, some flimsy argument 289 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:03,360 Speaker 1: about some pro Ukrainian group came out trying to deflect, 290 00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 1: but like China's like, nope, we're gonna get behind this. 291 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:08,680 Speaker 1: We're gonna get it behind this. We get UN into this, 292 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:11,160 Speaker 1: but we can't have the UN do it specifically because 293 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:14,920 Speaker 1: of the United States involvements. So yeah, things things are 294 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:17,840 Speaker 1: sliding fast. Anyway. If you're just tune in, you're listening 295 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 1: to the Mark Moss Show talking about the decentralized Revolution. 296 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:23,239 Speaker 1: Of course, each end, every week I've been joined by 297 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 1: a guest, Michelle Weekly. You can find her on Twitter 298 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:29,520 Speaker 1: at Michelle Weekly. If you want to, you know, an 299 00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:33,119 Speaker 1: international viewpoint of somebody who's lived abroad and seeing that, 300 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:35,639 Speaker 1: seeing the damage destruction that's happening, and the world's changing fast, 301 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 1: and if you want to understand what's going on, you're 302 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 1: gonna be paying attention. I'm going to cover a whole 303 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:41,879 Speaker 1: lot more in the show. When we come back, I 304 00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:43,639 Speaker 1: gotta take a quick break. You don't want to go away, 305 00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:49,679 Speaker 1: but we'll be right back, all right, Welcome back. If 306 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:51,680 Speaker 1: you're just tuning in, you're listening to the Mark Moss Show, 307 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 1: We're still, of course, always still talking about the decentralized 308 00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 1: Revolution and the way the world is changing. Oh, it's 309 00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:01,960 Speaker 1: changing fast as the one is breaking down, the banking 310 00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 1: system is breaking down. You know, it's times of rapid well, 311 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:10,480 Speaker 1: times like this when things are breaking down, that we 312 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 1: get massive amounts of change. He goes back to Vladimir 313 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:17,520 Speaker 1: Lennon's quote of days or decades where nothing seems to happen. 314 00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:21,680 Speaker 1: Life doesn't change. But then there's days where decades seem 315 00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:23,520 Speaker 1: to happen. And that's where we're at. I say that 316 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 1: quote all the time, but it's really it's this disruptive 317 00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:28,440 Speaker 1: change that leads to this, which of course is why 318 00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:31,160 Speaker 1: like Klaus Schwab wrote the book, you know, COVID nineteen, 319 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:33,880 Speaker 1: The Great Reset. He was like, in this time, this 320 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:37,199 Speaker 1: pandemic is time to reimagine, you know, reset, and so 321 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:40,560 Speaker 1: they want to use these times and who we got 322 00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:43,119 Speaker 1: something else coming in right now. Of course, as the 323 00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 1: banking system is collapsing and the FED is moving into 324 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:51,159 Speaker 1: you know, reassure depositors that their money is safe, that 325 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:55,720 Speaker 1: the banking system is okay, it seems like they're also 326 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:59,159 Speaker 1: pushing some secret agendas through. What am I talking about? Well, 327 00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:03,199 Speaker 1: I've been warning you. Lots of people are warning you. 328 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 1: Take heed that central bank digital currency CBDCs are coming 329 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:13,199 Speaker 1: to a country near you. Now we know China has 330 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:16,359 Speaker 1: pushed their CBDC out. I've talked about that extensively, but 331 00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:20,360 Speaker 1: of course they have because they're a communist country. I've 332 00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 1: played you clips of the head of the BIS. The 333 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:25,960 Speaker 1: Bank of International Settlements is like the central bank above 334 00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 1: all the central banks. The head of the BIS, Augustin Carson. 335 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:33,240 Speaker 1: He says that central bank digital currencies would not be 336 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:36,159 Speaker 1: like cash. With cash, you can move cash around and 337 00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 1: we don't know what it is. But with central bank 338 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 1: digital currencies, we will have total control, will know every 339 00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:44,480 Speaker 1: single transaction, and that's what they want. But of course, 340 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:47,159 Speaker 1: getting it through in China, in a communist country, I 341 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 1: mean it's communist right. Getting through the EU, I mean 342 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 1: it's almost communist right. But what about in America? What 343 00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:56,639 Speaker 1: about in the Land of the Free? What about in 344 00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,359 Speaker 1: the United States? Now we have something, you know, this 345 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:03,399 Speaker 1: Esky document called the Constitution that seems to get in 346 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,800 Speaker 1: the way every time these authoritarian leaders want to try 347 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 1: to push something through like this, and it basically restricts 348 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:12,719 Speaker 1: what the Federal Reserve can do. It's the government that 349 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:17,679 Speaker 1: creates money, right, the Federal Reserve just controls monetary policy, 350 00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:20,440 Speaker 1: and so to have a central bank digital currency where 351 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:23,400 Speaker 1: we have an account with the Fed. It's not really 352 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 1: how things are done, but doesn't doesn't don't don't let 353 00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 1: these pesky laws get in their way. They're going to 354 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 1: get their way through. And so how do we get there. 355 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 1: The old analogy of how you'd catch a wild pig 356 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:38,119 Speaker 1: would be put like a little bit of corn on 357 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,160 Speaker 1: the ground every day, and every day to put the corn, 358 00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 1: and then the the pig would come and eat the corn. 359 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,159 Speaker 1: And then one day, one day there would be like 360 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:46,680 Speaker 1: one wall up, and then the pig would still come. 361 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:48,919 Speaker 1: And then another day there'd be like a second wall up, 362 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:50,359 Speaker 1: and then the pig would still come. And then eventually 363 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 1: there's a third wall up, and the pit comes every day, 364 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 1: and finally that fourth and final wall goes in. And 365 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,360 Speaker 1: so it's this path of leading us there. And so 366 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:02,760 Speaker 1: one thing that's a little bit too coincidental for me 367 00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 1: is that we're having a couple of things going on. 368 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:08,159 Speaker 1: So obviously the banking crisis I've talked about extensively. Go 369 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:10,160 Speaker 1: back and listen to the last week if you want 370 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 1: the deep dive intensive in what's going on. Also on 371 00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:14,879 Speaker 1: my main YouTube channel, Mark Moss, I've been breaking that 372 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:18,040 Speaker 1: down in depth, but rather than try to rehash what happened, 373 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 1: I don't want to go through that. But basically, a 374 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 1: couple of banks got into trouble that would be bailed 375 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:28,280 Speaker 1: out by the FED, and basically the government and the 376 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:31,880 Speaker 1: follow Reserve are saying that forget this FDIC thing, because 377 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:34,880 Speaker 1: you're limits only grand We're just going to backstop all 378 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:38,520 Speaker 1: the deposits. So even if you have over the uninsured amount, 379 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 1: we're going to cover that anyway. Then they're talking about 380 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 1: backstopping every deposit in the banking system, which is eighteen 381 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:56,119 Speaker 1: trillion dollars. Now, if the FED backstops all the deposits, 382 00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:59,479 Speaker 1: that sort of means that I have an account with 383 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 1: the FED. M Now, there's a lot of there's a 384 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:07,360 Speaker 1: lot of steps that get us to this central bank 385 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 1: digital currency, but ultimately it's the currency that's issued by 386 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:15,960 Speaker 1: the central bank, it's the FED. Now, what about the 387 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 1: digital part, Mark, Well, you might already be aware of 388 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:22,640 Speaker 1: that over eighty percent of all dollar transactions are done digitally. Anyway. 389 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:26,040 Speaker 1: You probably use your debit card and your credit card, 390 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 1: and your Venmo and your PayPal and your wire transfers 391 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 1: and your aciate and your direct deposits and your automatic 392 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:34,280 Speaker 1: bill pays. You probably already use all your money like 393 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 1: that money is already digital. So we've already got the 394 00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:42,919 Speaker 1: digital part. So all we need is the central bank part. Right, 395 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:44,960 Speaker 1: we're at the digital part. We got a currency, We 396 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,560 Speaker 1: got the digital and all we need left is the 397 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:51,399 Speaker 1: central bank part. But if the Fed backstops all the 398 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:56,800 Speaker 1: bank reserves, that effectively gives us an account with the 399 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 1: Federal Reserve. And that is the part of the central 400 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 1: bank digital currency. Now, but what about all the other 401 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: stuff that you told us about Mark, What about their 402 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:08,160 Speaker 1: ability to do, you know, control us and censor our transactions. Well, yeah, 403 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:11,960 Speaker 1: that's the dangerous essential bank digital currencies. They're programmable money, 404 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 1: so they could program that money in advance, and they 405 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:16,479 Speaker 1: could say, hey, this group can do these things. This 406 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:19,120 Speaker 1: group can't. This group gets the positive industry, this group 407 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:22,160 Speaker 1: gets the negative industry. This group gets reparations, this group 408 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:24,719 Speaker 1: doesn't things like that. This group, you've gone over your 409 00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 1: carbon allotment. You can't get gas, or you can't eat steak, 410 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:30,560 Speaker 1: things like that. The thing is is that they know 411 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 1: that the Maran people will never go for that. As 412 00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 1: a matter of fact, there's massive pushback. We saw this 413 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:38,840 Speaker 1: week Governor Ron de Santis in Florida is trying to 414 00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 1: pass legislation to prevent central bank digital currencies from working 415 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 1: in Florida. We've seen Senator to head crews in Texas 416 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:50,840 Speaker 1: trying to implement le legislation to prevent the central bank 417 00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:53,359 Speaker 1: didity currency from happening. So there's still some good people 418 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:56,560 Speaker 1: out there fighting the fight, and so they know that 419 00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:58,920 Speaker 1: they can't just switch us to a central bank digital currency. 420 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 1: Nobody's gonna want that. You're waking up enough, you're spreading 421 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 1: the news, and you should continue to do that. But 422 00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,919 Speaker 1: what if we just sort of back in We already 423 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:10,640 Speaker 1: have the currency where you have the digital part, and 424 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:13,080 Speaker 1: now all we need is the account with the central 425 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 1: bank or the follow reserving. We're already there. So it's 426 00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:21,880 Speaker 1: pretty interesting that this is the course of events that's happening. 427 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,640 Speaker 1: And at the same time as the Photo Reserve are 428 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 1: shoring up dollar access for banks, the Photo Reserve announces 429 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 1: or i should say, confirms, the launch of their own 430 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 1: central bank digital currency. So they there's a central bank 431 00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,240 Speaker 1: digital currency coming out called FED. Now I've talked about 432 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 1: this extensively. They announced it a while ago, but it 433 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:45,000 Speaker 1: just so happens that of course it's resurfaced right now. 434 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:48,440 Speaker 1: And basically, the FED now is not as bad as 435 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 1: you think it is, yet it's always the slippery slope. 436 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:56,840 Speaker 1: So the FED now is a system that allows central 437 00:24:56,920 --> 00:25:01,360 Speaker 1: banks and banks to move money back and between themselves 438 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 1: using something like a CBDC. So it's not it's not 439 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:07,600 Speaker 1: for the public yet, it's just for us to use internally. 440 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:11,720 Speaker 1: But you see how the pig analogy is working, how 441 00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:15,160 Speaker 1: the walls are starting to close in. First we start 442 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:18,400 Speaker 1: using digital money, and then second the banks have a problem, 443 00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:20,720 Speaker 1: so they give us accounts at the FED. And then third, 444 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:22,639 Speaker 1: the FED rolls out of central bank digits currency, but 445 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:25,359 Speaker 1: it's only for them, you know, back back channels between 446 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 1: the banks. And then fourth we just have accounts our 447 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:33,920 Speaker 1: currencies directly with the FED. And then finally they start 448 00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:39,760 Speaker 1: to add all those other behavioral modification program bile things 449 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 1: into the money because no one's going to go for 450 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 1: it right off the bat. So it's pretty interesting they 451 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:47,600 Speaker 1: announce this FED now it's launching. It says that quote, 452 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 1: early adopters will complete a customer testing and certification program 453 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 1: informed by feedback from the FED Now pilot program to 454 00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:59,880 Speaker 1: prepare for sending live transactions through the system. So it's 455 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 1: been announced since twenty nineteen. They've been working on it, 456 00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:07,120 Speaker 1: and now they're gonna launch it. This is a big milestone. 457 00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,119 Speaker 1: There's something to stay vigilant on. This is something to 458 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:12,720 Speaker 1: definitely pay attention to. You know, back the fighters back, 459 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:20,560 Speaker 1: Ronda Santis, back back, you know Tom Emmer and Ted 460 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 1: Cruise and all these people doing it because they're inching 461 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:27,720 Speaker 1: this forward one way or another. We know what their 462 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,400 Speaker 1: ultimate goal is, and that is ultimate control. And so 463 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 1: we have to be vigilant and watch out and stand 464 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:34,000 Speaker 1: for that. Now, if you're just doing annual listen to 465 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 1: the Mark Mos show. Of course we talk about the 466 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:38,440 Speaker 1: decentralized revolution and the world is breaking apart. It seems 467 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 1: like the world is still getting more centralized. A lot 468 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 1: of times people say, Mark, what do you mean it's 469 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:45,239 Speaker 1: going to decentralized. It's still getting more centralized. Well it is, 470 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:48,159 Speaker 1: but it's in the last grass. You can see. The 471 00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:51,199 Speaker 1: world is pushing back on this. So while they're rushing, 472 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:54,200 Speaker 1: they're quickly trying to hold on tighter to any last 473 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:57,320 Speaker 1: bits they have, it's also slipping through their fingers. That's 474 00:26:57,320 --> 00:26:58,960 Speaker 1: what we're talking about each and every week. Of course, 475 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:01,639 Speaker 1: as they continuing to try to push something like a 476 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 1: central bank digital currency that pushes us more into centralization. 477 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:09,200 Speaker 1: We have options. We have Bitcoin. It stands in start 478 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:12,600 Speaker 1: contrast to what the central bank digital currencies are, and 479 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:15,560 Speaker 1: central bank digital currencies are slave money. Bitcoin is freedom money. 480 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:17,359 Speaker 1: So at least we have that. That's our lifeboat to 481 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:18,960 Speaker 1: get out on. I got some more stories to run 482 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 1: through when I come back, I gotta take a quick break. 483 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 1: Don't go away, I'll be back, all right, Welcome back. 484 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:26,359 Speaker 1: If you're just tune in, you're listening to the Mark Masha. 485 00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:30,080 Speaker 1: We're talking about, of course, the decentralized revolution, and it is. 486 00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:33,080 Speaker 1: It's happening. A lot of times. People still think that, Mark, 487 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:35,520 Speaker 1: you're wrong. Come on, we're still getting more centralized. You 488 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,920 Speaker 1: got the World Ecomic Forum, and the US government's trying 489 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:42,520 Speaker 1: to get bigger. But that's the that's the small picture. 490 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 1: Zoom out. The world is breaking apart. Is if you're 491 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 1: not aware there's a war going on between the United 492 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:54,639 Speaker 1: States and Russia. I'm not going to say Ukraine anymore. 493 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:56,359 Speaker 1: I'm just done with that. At this point, we know 494 00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:58,400 Speaker 1: that the US is in war with Russia. Of course 495 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:00,960 Speaker 1: they try to deny it. It's a proxy war, people said. 496 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:03,840 Speaker 1: They tried to deny that. Look, come on, we're at war. 497 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 1: If you need to, if you need any evidence, I 498 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:13,440 Speaker 1: think the Russian downing of an American drone plane is 499 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 1: enough evidence. What is the United States doing flying planes 500 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:19,280 Speaker 1: over there in a war and Russian planes are shooting 501 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:21,880 Speaker 1: it down? I think we're in a war. You might 502 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:24,520 Speaker 1: also have known that we've been sending hundreds of billions 503 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:28,239 Speaker 1: of dollars and weapons over to Ukraine. Some of our 504 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:32,359 Speaker 1: weapons systems are so complex they take teams of people 505 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:36,720 Speaker 1: to run them, and they take teams of skilled people 506 00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 1: to run them. Yeah, so that's Americans over there. There's 507 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 1: American military special forces all around Ukraine getting ready to 508 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:48,120 Speaker 1: go in there. So look, we already know what's going on, 509 00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:51,000 Speaker 1: and the US is just continuing to get more and 510 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:53,400 Speaker 1: more involved in this. Like I said, that drone was 511 00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:56,840 Speaker 1: really kind of like if anybody thought there was any 512 00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:59,720 Speaker 1: line that maybe the US wasn't, I think that's over. 513 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 1: I think we know that by now. But I think 514 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:06,280 Speaker 1: that bothers me is that now the whole world is 515 00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:11,200 Speaker 1: basically being forced to choose sides, and that's a problem. 516 00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:14,400 Speaker 1: When push comes to shove, what happens. So we saw 517 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:18,480 Speaker 1: this week President Ye from China went over to meet 518 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:23,240 Speaker 1: with Putin over in Russia, and uh, it wasn't It 519 00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 1: wasn't a good meeting. If you're if you're from America 520 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:27,920 Speaker 1: like I am, it wasn't good. As a matter of fact, 521 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:31,160 Speaker 1: there was a chilling message that was sent to the 522 00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:33,840 Speaker 1: West where a president she was seeing there. Of course, 523 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 1: they recorded a video and they released their Remember, you 524 00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:38,480 Speaker 1: only think what they want us to think, right they 525 00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 1: if they're if they're, if they're recording a video and 526 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 1: releasing that video, then they want us to see that video. 527 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,360 Speaker 1: And of course in that video President she calls putin 528 00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:50,239 Speaker 1: a dear friend. He says, quote, change is coming that 529 00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 1: hasn't happened in a hundred years. What is that change 530 00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:58,080 Speaker 1: that they're talking about? And what does they have to do? Well? 531 00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 1: The change is the changing of the guard. No more, 532 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 1: if they have their way, no more will the United 533 00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:07,440 Speaker 1: States have the homogeney over the entire world. No more 534 00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:11,920 Speaker 1: will the US dollar be the homogeney will no longer 535 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 1: will be the reserve currency or standard of the entire 536 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:20,479 Speaker 1: world if they have their way. The bricks nations Brazil, Russia, India, China, 537 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,479 Speaker 1: South Africa and lots of other countries now have joined 538 00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 1: are rising up to challenge the West. And this is 539 00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 1: exactly what they're talking about. China is in full cooperation 540 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:35,320 Speaker 1: with Russia. Now you might might ask yourself, why why 541 00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:40,040 Speaker 1: are they well? For one, the US is also attacking China. Now, 542 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 1: I guess I cheer for that. I mean, I'm not 543 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:45,280 Speaker 1: for any type of war. But if I talked about 544 00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:47,080 Speaker 1: my main YouTube channel, Mark Moss, you can go back 545 00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:50,480 Speaker 1: and find it. But the United States, the Biden administration, 546 00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 1: has attacked China and basically took away all their microchips, 547 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:56,840 Speaker 1: so sent them back to the dark ages. We have 548 00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 1: put massive amounts of sanctions on them, slapped tariffs on 549 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:04,240 Speaker 1: their imports. It's the financial war. And of course they've 550 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:06,400 Speaker 1: voiced their opinion for taking over Taiwan, and we've said, 551 00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:08,040 Speaker 1: if you go to Taiwan, we'll go to war with 552 00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 1: you there as well. And what China realizes that the 553 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:14,160 Speaker 1: US is no longer friendly, and that's fine. It's fine 554 00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 1: by me. I don't think we should be friendly with China. 555 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 1: China is a communist country. We shouldn't be bowing down 556 00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:21,720 Speaker 1: to them. They have massive human rights abuses and those 557 00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:23,520 Speaker 1: need to be dealt with, So we shouldn't be friendly 558 00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:26,280 Speaker 1: with China. So I'm okay with that. I'm no fan 559 00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 1: of communism or fan of China from that standpoint, but 560 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:30,720 Speaker 1: if you understand it from a geopolitical standpoint, you have 561 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 1: to be only put yourself in both sides of the 562 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:37,360 Speaker 1: shoes here. So if you're China and you're being attacked, 563 00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 1: you know, taking away your microchips, taking away your energy, 564 00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 1: sanctioning tariffs, etc. Now you're depending on Russia. So now 565 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 1: China and Russia have gotten cozy because China has to 566 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:52,760 Speaker 1: import over eighty five percent of its energy means oil 567 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,680 Speaker 1: and natural gas. Well where does it get that from? Well, 568 00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 1: it gets it from Russia. So it also gets lots 569 00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:01,120 Speaker 1: of other commodities in mineral and things like that. So 570 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:05,200 Speaker 1: what happens if Russia goes down, Well out, China's all 571 00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:07,000 Speaker 1: on their own, and they don't want to be on 572 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,360 Speaker 1: their own because the US is already attacking them. So 573 00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 1: of course my name means my friend, So of course 574 00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 1: Russia and China are going to get together on this. Now, 575 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 1: what about all the other countries then that are being 576 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:20,360 Speaker 1: forced to choose sides here? And this is where problems 577 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:24,480 Speaker 1: start coming in. You know, we've seen now Saudi Arabia 578 00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 1: saying they want to go over to the bricks Nations. 579 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:28,960 Speaker 1: We've seen Iran going over to the bricks nations. We're 580 00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 1: at a point now where we're seeing sixty almost seventy 581 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:35,600 Speaker 1: percent of the world's population is now joining into those ranks. 582 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:38,640 Speaker 1: And part of the problem that I'm really seeing that's 583 00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:40,200 Speaker 1: really starting to bother me, and you need to be 584 00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:45,680 Speaker 1: aware of, is that from a US centric viewpoint, you know, 585 00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:49,640 Speaker 1: we're we're the good guys. But you know, there's always 586 00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:52,520 Speaker 1: two sides to every story. Sometimes there's three sides, right, 587 00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:55,760 Speaker 1: There's both sides and there's the truth. And the problem 588 00:32:55,800 --> 00:33:00,320 Speaker 1: that I have is that while we are caused being 589 00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:03,200 Speaker 1: told that misinformation is the biggest threat that we have, 590 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:06,200 Speaker 1: it seems that it's our own government that continues to 591 00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 1: lie to us. Now I'm not saying that China is 592 00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:10,360 Speaker 1: truthful or Russia is truthful either. I would imagine they 593 00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 1: probably lie even more than the United States does. The 594 00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:16,040 Speaker 1: problem is that all of the political establishment are full 595 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:19,480 Speaker 1: of lies. And you know, we have this Nord Stream 596 00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:21,840 Speaker 1: pipeline that was blown up. I've talked about that extensively. 597 00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 1: And look, we've watched enough murder mysteries on TV and 598 00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:26,600 Speaker 1: detective shows to kind of figure this out. You just 599 00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:31,280 Speaker 1: follow the money. Who's got the motivation? If you look 600 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:34,000 Speaker 1: at the geopolitical game, it's always been trying to keep 601 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:37,280 Speaker 1: Germany away from Russia. If you take the economic engine 602 00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:40,480 Speaker 1: powerhouse of Europe and you match them up with cheap 603 00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:43,880 Speaker 1: energy from Russia, it's a pretty strong combination. We don't 604 00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:46,400 Speaker 1: want that. And so where did the pipeline run. It 605 00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:51,040 Speaker 1: went from Russia to Germany. There's a lot of people 606 00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:54,160 Speaker 1: that don't want Germany to continue to have that. Well, 607 00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:57,000 Speaker 1: there's actually not a lot of people. There's maybe one 608 00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:59,440 Speaker 1: country that doesn't want that, the United States. Now the 609 00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:02,280 Speaker 1: United States of course sending natural gas over to Europe, 610 00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 1: and so anyway that that happened. And then we have 611 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:08,279 Speaker 1: the Hirst report that came out and said, look, I mean, 612 00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:10,239 Speaker 1: he's one of the best investigative journalists you know, with 613 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 1: a track record decades and decades and decades, broke many 614 00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:15,880 Speaker 1: big stories and he wrote a very conclusive piece of 615 00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:17,839 Speaker 1: evidence saying that it was the United States that did this, 616 00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:23,319 Speaker 1: and then a very very flimsy, rebuttal argument came out 617 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:27,520 Speaker 1: saying that no, it was some pro Ukrainian team that 618 00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:31,280 Speaker 1: did it, and that's been rebutted one hundred times from Sunday. 619 00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:36,000 Speaker 1: It was so bad that it just I mean, it's 620 00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:39,080 Speaker 1: it's so bad that it's just I mean, it just 621 00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:41,600 Speaker 1: alarm bells are going off of how fake that is, 622 00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:44,600 Speaker 1: and so that only emboldens the rest of the world 623 00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:47,000 Speaker 1: even more. As a matter of fact, now China is 624 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:52,440 Speaker 1: supporting a UN led nor Engstream investigation. However, they're urging 625 00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:58,319 Speaker 1: that the US led Western nations have to abandon the 626 00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:01,120 Speaker 1: UN because they're afraid that they investigation will be tainted. 627 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:07,440 Speaker 1: We have even just online people who have have have 628 00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 1: poked hold all through that nord stream sabotage. And now 629 00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:13,239 Speaker 1: the thing that really got to me this week was 630 00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:16,759 Speaker 1: I saw the Mexican president is now on board with this. 631 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:23,400 Speaker 1: The Mexican president calls the US State Department liars, Yeah, 632 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 1: our friendly neighbor to the south that we need geopolitically 633 00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:29,799 Speaker 1: as the world continues to break apart, which it is. 634 00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:33,440 Speaker 1: The US relationship with Mexico is going to be crucial 635 00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:35,440 Speaker 1: for US, and as long as we have that, we're okay. 636 00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:38,360 Speaker 1: They're directly on our southern border. And now the Mexican 637 00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:41,840 Speaker 1: president is called the US State Department liars after the report, 638 00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:46,439 Speaker 1: right reports, Liars about what, Liars about everything, Liars about 639 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:50,720 Speaker 1: human rights abuses, Liars about you know, drugs along the border, 640 00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:54,520 Speaker 1: Liars about the way they are handling the whole situation 641 00:35:54,520 --> 00:36:03,440 Speaker 1: with Donald Trump, he called that out specifically, Liars about 642 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:07,359 Speaker 1: how they deal with Mexico, with Mexico directly, I mean, 643 00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:09,560 Speaker 1: this is bad, this is this is really bad. And 644 00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:11,319 Speaker 1: so what does that mean? What you why do you 645 00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:14,600 Speaker 1: care about this? Well, as the world continues to decentralize, 646 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:18,759 Speaker 1: the money systems are going to continue to decentralize, the 647 00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:22,839 Speaker 1: information systems will continue to decentralize, and so we need 648 00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:24,839 Speaker 1: to stay one step ahead of it. Luckily for US, 649 00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:30,720 Speaker 1: we have the global permissionless, borderless monetary system that is Bitcoin. 650 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:33,080 Speaker 1: So we have it. We at least have a life 651 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:35,680 Speaker 1: vote to get into. But it's important to understand what's 652 00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:37,800 Speaker 1: going on, and it's interesting to watch it, so I 653 00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:39,880 Speaker 1: love to report on it. Let me know what you think. 654 00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:42,120 Speaker 1: Hit me up on social media at number one, Mark Moss. 655 00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:45,399 Speaker 1: Hit me up on social either Twitter or Instagram. I'm 656 00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:47,399 Speaker 1: pretty active on both of course.
