Why @cafreeland is my new hero and why she is about to be yours as well.
I have stayed very close to Martin Sheil, retired IRS criminal investigator, during our war and here is his latest:
“Let me take a moment and tell you who in my opinion just won this war!”-Martin Sheil

“There is a lady from Canada by the name Chrystia Freeland. I believe she is some kind of Deputy Prime Minister or some such.
She is in fact cutting Russia's economy down to the size of Zimbabwe.
She has an extensive background in Economics.”-Marty

“@cafreeland came up with the idea of cutting off Russia's Central Bank and their rainy day fund that was intended to be used as an economic buffer.
“She was the one who circulated the theory among prominent Central Bankers in the Western world and fought for it.”Marty Sheil

“I don't know if the timing of its activation was intentional or serendipitous, but it turned out to be sublime.
“Putin was caught with his pants down. The Russian stock market has been closed for the week.”-Marty Sheil

“Please note—it was only after this particular sanction maneuver was announced that Deripaska and Fridman and some other oligarchs started publicly squeaking.
“Chrystia Freeland is my new hero—after you of course.
But spread her name from the rooftops Heidi!”-Marty Sheil

“Chrystia Freeland saved Western Civilization as we know it.”—Marty

To read all my key threads with retired baddass Martin Sheil, start here please:
And while I have the attention of Canadians, here is an interview my @radicalizedpod team did with @bjgalloway1717 on the trucker convoy active measure.
Ep15 @radicalizedpod I read an email from Martin Sheil—former IRS criminal investigator—near the top of the show dissecting Russia sanctions. Check it out:
Also threading: “Swift is HUUUUGE!”

Detaching major Russian banks from SWIFT which was announced is HUGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This will be devastating to the Russian economy which is rather paltry - maybe analogous to that of Portugal or Texas.
What is scary is the sanctions are backing Putin into a corner.—Marty

He sounds more and more paranoid. He is also very enamored of his nukes, and I am getting concerned that he is like a cat caught up in a tree that may decide to take desperate measures. Here is something else: Will the Russian Generals allow Putin to take nuclear measures?-MS

A MORE ACCURATE HEADLINE: Leaked data shows Switzerland banks engaged in criminal activity, now trying to clean up their act. nytimes.com/2022/02/28/wor…
Now, an extraordinary leak of data from Credit Suisse, one of the world’s most iconic banks, is exposing how the bank held hundreds of millions of dollars for heads of state, intelligence officials, sanctioned businessmen and human rights abusers, among many others.-@nytimes
My dad was born in Czechoslovakia in 1934. Sudetenland was handed to Hitler. His sisters grew up hiding in hay stacks from Russian soldiers. We’ve learned nothing.
Four days later, during the famous Munich conference — now known as the centerpiece of the “appeasement” of the Nazis — Great Britain, France and Italy agreed to the handover of the Sudeten region to Germany, hoping it would prevent further aggression.-@washingtonpost
“It is the last territorial claim which I have to make in Europe,” Hitler said. Within six months, he took the rest of Czechoslovakia, and on Sept. 1, 1939, he attacked Poland, starting World War II.-@washingtonpost
I’m sorry, but I don’t want to be an emperor. That’s not my business. I don’t want to rule or conquer anyone. I should like to help everyone - if possible - Jew, Gentile - black man - white. We all want to help one another. Human beings are like that.

We want to live by each other’s happiness—not by each other’s misery. We don’t want to hate and despise one another. In this world there is room for everyone. The good earth is rich and can provide for everyone. The way of life can be free and beautiful…
