Did you know that the BIS (Bank of International Settlements) aka "the central bank of Central Banks" has directed all Central banks to implement their CBDC plan by 2025?

I didnt, and I follow this stuff pretty closely.

The BIS also recently stated that Gold is now a Tier 1 reserve asset. Hence the reason all the Central banks started buying up and hoarding gold recently.

they're preparing for something.

If I had to guess, I suspect the prep related to the central banking crisis of 219 (that no one seems to know about). I did a thread in May with clips from Professor Vighi who did a great explanation of what happened in the leadup to lockdowns
The 2019 central banking market crash (and crumbling banking system) many say is the impetus for the "going direct" strategy outlined by Blackrock. Essentially for nations to crush small banks and centralize big ones. (we're starting to see this happen)
Big names in MacroEconomics have been talking about this for some time. Even business leaders. Jack Ma hinted at it and is (i believe) the real reason he was silenced.
Now knowing that the CBDC "mandate" came down from the BIS, I suppose this (and "going direct") is how they intend to rescue the financial system. programmable money aka CBDCs. Where purchasing habits and policy can be centrally controlled.
Also, the nomination of Secretary Omarova suddenly makes more sense. She wanted to end private banking and force Americans to bank DIRECTLY at the Fed. The government would become your bank. This would *perfectly* align with going direct.
FedNOW just came online in August... 🤔
it clearly is going to be the network platform for their inevitable CBDC.

The Treasury even announced that they may be considering all other Crypto Currencies to be threats to national security.

All the pieces seem to be falling in place.

As much as the cyberpunk in me loved the idea of freedom of cryptocurrency (zcash was my jam) ... the more I learn about Macro economics, banking, and history of the West ... the more it has started to look like an intentional trap.

As people start running their mouths about NATO, remember: NATO was always a "psyop". A right-in-front-of-your-face bit of slight-of-hand.

Hitler's Chief of Staff (Adolf Heusinger) became NATO's Chief of Staff!

not just NATO, but also the "UN".

the first EIGHT undersecretaries of the U.N. were Soviet-born Communists!

They even said it to STRAIGHT to our faces but we were still too stupid to "understand"

It was ALWAYS about consolidating a ONE-WORLD government. It was ALWAYS about conquer.

"The accounts of the Federal Reserve System have never been audited, it operates outside the control of Congress"
--B.Goldwater

Why are we even still playing this game? Pretending like everyone doesn't already know that The Fed is a huge hoax and scam?
repeat after me:
"Central Banks are how secretive Aristocracy Arrests Autodetermination of Free Republics."
repeat it one more time:

"Central Banks are how Aristocracy Arrests Autodetermination"

Just before New Years 2025, I struck gold at a hole-in-the-wall used book store. One of the books I found was

"The Mind And Face of Bolshevism"

printed in 1929. Cloth Cover. Embossed. gold leaf star with color photos and lithographs. Here's some of what's inside: (🧵1 / 13) Image

As you read this book, (or about the Bolsheviks in general) a very strange thing happens.

It occurs to you that the Bolsheviks are eerily familiar. Everything, their art, writing, media, their "sayings" and their general "vibe" is all so familiar... but why?

The empty-calorie futurism, naive utopianism, impractical designs, and fact-free idealism are EXACTLY what we see everywhere today.

We've been so inundated with it in recent years that even this ~100 year old book feels eerily current

The Corporate Press just REFUSES to connect dots for the public like these:
- TWO major mass shootings (2022 Buffalo, NY & Christchurch, NZ 2019) were linked to Ukraine neo-nazis
- The Senator👇who met Zelensky in Minnesota (🚨 ) is now in trouble for smurfing (aka laundering)
So just to be clear:
- Ukraine (accused of being a money-laundering front for foreign aid)...
- meets with Senator who just recently had evidence released of campaign-fund laundering
- They meet in THE SAME STATE the "largest fraud" in US history now is🤔 Image
Image
Context & source for the "Ukraine money-laundering": The UN.

Dawg...they have been fighting FOREVER. it's all in the *first* 3 mins 👇 : Crimea, Kiev, Russia, The Kremlin, The Tsar, The Khan.... and this was in 1547!!!

Ukraine (the Borderlands) is called "The Bloodlands", cuz they've been fighting FOR. EVER.

The clip above is from Groznyy ("The Terrible") 2024 about the time of "Ivan the Terrible" (who, IMHO, wasnt so bad)...and it's all in there.

the names are different but the places and their beefs are basically the same (Odessa, Kiev, Donbas, etc)

I have said "we live in the shadow of an old aristocracy" quite often in my threads. but why?

Let's pick a random part of life. Entertainment. A random popular show. Seinfeld. A random character. Elaine

Daughter of French Billionaire, but not just any Billionaire
(🧵 1 of 14) Image

So it turns out, Seinfeld's "Elaine" (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) is from a family dynasty of the largest food shippers in the world. She's not just some random quirky former SNL-cast member.

Leopold Louis Dreyfus was the "King of Wheat" and his empire controlled the World's wheat supply during the Great Depression and World War 1 and World War 2.

They even "diversified" into arms trade.
