82. As President Thomas Jefferson warned us in 1809: “I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies... If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency,

first decieve by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks]... will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered.”

83. Rep. Louis McFadden, Chairman of the House Banking & Currency Committee, explained about the FED in 1932:

"We have in this country one of the most corrupt institutions the world has ever known. I refer to the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Banks...

Some people think the Federal Reserve Banks are United States Government institutions. They are not Government institutions. They are private credit monopolies which prey upon the people of the United States for the benefit of themselves and their foreign customers.

[They] are the agents of the foreign central banks... Every effort has been made to conceal its powers but the truth is the FED has usurped the government. It controls everything here (in Congress) and controls all our foreign relations. It makes and breaks governments at will."

84. U.S. Senator George Malone, speaking before Congress about the FED explained in 1962:

“I believe that if the people of this nation fully understood what Congress has done to them over the last 49 years, they would move on Washington; they would not wait for an election....It adds up to a preconceived plan to destroy the economic & social independence of the U.S.!"

85. Congressman James Traficant, addressing the House about the FED:

“Their lust is for power & control. Since the inception of central banking, they have controlled the fates of nations...The FED is a sovereign power structure separate & distinct from the federal US government.

Unwittingly, America has returned to its pre-American Revolution, feudal roots...Once again, We the People are the tenants and sharecroppers renting our own property from a Sovereign in the guise of the Federal Reserve Bank. We the people have exchanged one master for another.

This has been going on for over 80 yrs without the "informed knowledge" of the American people, without a voice protesting loud enough. Now it’s easy to grasp why America is fundamentally bankrupt..Our children will inherit this unpayable debt & the tyranny to enforce paying it.”

86. Henry Ford, founder of the Ford Motor Company, said:

“It is well enough that the people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning.”

87. Sen. Barry Goldwater posed the following question:

“Does it not seem strange to you that these men just happened to be CFR (Council on Foreign Relations) and just happened to be on the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve, that absolutely controls the money and interest

rates of this great country. A privately-owned organization ... which has absolutely nothing to do with the United States of America!”

**A short history lesson on the origins of this CFR organization that has been whittling away at our national sovereignty for over a century.👇

88. Make no mistake. As of 1941, the financial powers behind the FED & the CFR had already secretly achieved complete dominance over America.

As described by US Senator George Norris in a congressional speech on November 30, 1941:

"J. P. Morgan, with the assistance and cooperation of a few of the interlocking corporations which reach all over the United States in their influence, controls every railroad in the United States.

They control practically every public utility, they control literally thousands of corporations, they control all of the large insurance companies. We are gradually reaching a time, if we have not already reached that point,

when the business of the country is controlled by men who can be named on the fingers of one hand, because those men control the money of the Nation, and that control is growing at a rapid rate."

89. It is important to understand that these same criminals described by US Senator George Norris were also behind the hijacking of the media and free press in our country in 1915.👇

90. Let’s look briefly at how the Federal Reserve criminals intentionally CAUSED the Great Crash of 1929.

91. Most people are familiar with Charles Lindbergh, Jr. – “Lucky Lindy” –who made the 1st solo nonstop transatlantic flight. Fewer people know that his father, Charles, Sr., was a distinguished member of congress. In December 1913 he declared on the floor of the House:

92. Several strategies were used to precipitate the 1929 crash. One was interest rates. The FED increased the discount rate from 3.5% in January of that year to 6% in late August.

93. Another tactic was calling loans used to purchase stock. In 1929, one could heavily buy stocks “on margin” (with 90% borrowed money). But many of these were “24-hour call loans” – meaning the loan could be called at any time, requiring immediate repayment.

94. For most investors, the only way to repay was to sell the stock. Simultaneously calling huge numbers of these loans would, of course, cave in the stock market.

95. The combination of higher interest rates, called loans & short-selling caused a plunge that snowballed into a complete panic.

96. Were stocks unloaded on the people at high prices, then bought back at low prices after a panic? Yes. The “day of reckoning” Lindbergh predicted came with “Black Thursday” and the Great Crash of 1929.

97. Afterwards, the international banking criminals moved back into the market –exactly as Congressman Lindbergh had predicted. They bought up stocks that once sold for $ 10 per share at $ 1 per share, widening their ownership of corporate America.

98. The October 1929 stock market collapse wiped out millions of small investors –but not the conspirators of the FED. These banking criminals and other top insiders had exited the market.

99. Friendly biographers attribute this to their fiscal “Brilliance.” But it was actually fiscal foreknowledge, of the Federal Reserve policy they were now controlling.

100. Congressman McFadden said of the crash:

“It was not accidental. It was a carefully contrived occurrence. The international bankers sought to bring about a condition of despair here so that they might emerge as rulers of us all."

101. Senator Robert L. Owen, co-sponsor of the Federal Reserve Act (the Glass- Owen Bill), testified before the House Committee on Banking and Currency in 1938:

102. Further verifiaction that this even was a calculated event, is found in the writings of William Jennings Bryan, who was U.S. Secretary of State under Woodrow Wilson, who described:

103. Milton Friedman, Nobel Prize winning economist, confirmed:

“The Federal Reserve definitely caused the Great Depression by contracting Americas’ money supply by one third between 1929 and 1933.”

104. And that is how the U.S. Federal Reserve (FED) came to be.
