In Let’s Go to the Movies, I will review Dark Money – a new PBS documentary on the buying and selling of elections by untraceable money, streaming Oct.1 – Oct. 31. I touch on the small number of major donors and large corporations funding the creation and maintenance of a transhumanist and transgender “movement” in Story #13.

In Money & Markets this week, I will discuss the latest financial and geopolitical news. Make sure to send questions to Ask Catherine or post your questions and recommended stories at the Money & Markets commentary for October 11th here.

Talk to you Thursday!


PS. For New Subscribers:
We build the Wrap Up Web Presentations as we role out four segments on our weekly interview schedule for each of our quarterly and annual Wrap Ups. When the four segments and the full web presentation are complete, we convert the web presentation into a PDF and a flipbook which are then posted for subscribers. We then convert the PDF into a hard copy that is mailed to premium subscribers and available for all subscribers at the Solari Store. The entire process starts with our creation of our cover – when we pick the theme that we will explore in depth.

As you can see from our new cover, for the 3rd Quarter 2018 Wrap Up, our theme is “Megacities and the Growth of the Global Real Estate Companies.”

  1. Catherine,

    Celebrities like Kim Kardashian go on instagram and flaunting blood facials. IT’s really disgusting.

    Over the summer the Met had an exhibit celebrating fashion and the Roman Catholic Church and I refuse, refuse, to go. There was no way I was going to attend an exhibit celebrating an organization that has done such damage to so many children. After hearing the wrap up, I can see how the RCC will reform to a more liberal organization and trans humanism will definitely be a part of it.

    AT the beginning of the summer before the Met Gala, there were rumors flying that editor in chief of Vogue Anna Wintour was on her way out. She also heads up the Met Gala and curates the annual event celebrating fashion and art. Those rumors were a big deal. So many people were happy to see her demise. By the end of the summer before fashion week an article broke out that Anna Wintour will never be replaced and has a permanent position at Vogue.

    At that time Vogue was a $100 million in debt. I wouldn’t be surprised there was some deal to Conde Nast to keep her in her place. There was a lot shows during fashion week promoting trans humanism. Three breasted models and men in women’s clothes were everywhere and in all the major cities.

    I have to say part 2 was better than part 1! I’m listening to it again.

    Thank you Catherine and Joseph. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I am eternally gratefully for the honesty and reality. I feel like a balanced person. I never feel lonely with great minds out there like your and knowing people listen to you. A lot of this stuff is scary but as you always say if we can face it God can fix it.

    1. I am exclusively a product of Catholic school. I believe my education was thorough in comparison to alternatives, but there was an undeniable inculcation throughout it. The contradictory things that the Church first did, then proceeded to cover up, drove a great many of my boomer generation away, but we are culturally fairly cohesive, tend to be conservative and independent-minded.

      What we consistently miss as a nation, and perhaps as a world is the reliable orderliness of a world with a consensus cosmology. I like one of Cormac McCarthy’s quotes “The disorder of evil is the thing, itself.” We are not together on anything and therefore, anything goes. This is the essence of mob rule, and injustice is the inevitable result. The focus for great thinkers needs to be upon constructing a sound cosmology all over again and then to implement it in our daily lives. The distractions of technology lead to diffusion of energy and a shrinking of the individual.

      There has never been a greater existential crisis for humans in the temporal world. What comfort we can take is that eternity does not admit to the schemes of the temporal world. Keep it in mind, do not confuse “a long time” with eternity, and realize that anything that is urgent or imminent is not eternal and will accordingly pass without ultimate effect.

      1. Could not agree more. Sending prayers from Amsterdam where we are having a deep discussion about the source of evil and what scripture says we should do about it.

    2. I love Western art living in the Southwest. The native art and those artists dipicting the West prior to mass media exceptionall and the detail. Many were part of a Taos Society of artists. I live near an art district in Arizona and attended regularly but no more. Many of the galleries are now contemporary featuring nothing. It’s no longer human and I’m walking away from the celebration of nothingness. It’s habitual.

      1. Yikes! I so loved Western art when I lived in Santa Fe. Glad you are walking way – time to support human art.

    3. Pleased to be of service. No reason to be lonely – too many great people who refused to be “gas lighted!”

      1. I don’t feel lonely. I feel electrified! I am happy to be of service to anyone who is in need.

      2. You will laugh. Suddenly Mailchip will not send out our videos so this did not go out this week. Hmmm…More tech support time for us to see if we can reverse.

  5. Dear Catherine,

    I think you are mistaken about life in Europe. The Europeans are not spending their days having fun in the sun, enjoying la dolce vita. Most Europeans are overtaxed and overwhelmed as they try to deal with deteriorating infrastructure, deteriorating value of their salaries and savings as living costs increase, declining job security, arbitrary authority and intrusive bureaucracies. They are concerned about how they will survive when their jobs are replaced by robots.

    Just as an example, take Germany, one of the “better off” countries in Europe. During Merkel’s tenure Germany has managed to achieve:

    Doubling of the working population living in poverty,
    An Increase in child poverty to 20.3 percent (rising trend),
    Also dramatically rising poverty among the elderly,
    The lowest real wage development within the EU,
    The planned increase in the military budget to 70 billion euros,
    Imminent collapse of the health and care system,
    Job cuts in police, justice and education,
    Successful division of the population by going it alone in refugee policy,
    Network Enforcement Act,
    Military operations of the Bundeswehr in 13 countries,
    Exploitation of the middle class,
    Breaking competitors of their European neighbors through export surplus at dumping price,
    Expansion of part-time and temporary work,
    Sanctions against Russia,
    The extension of the use of glyphosate for a further 5 years.

    In general, Europeans are not enjoying life. They are struggling to make ends meet and they are worried about their futures. They are frustrated, discontent and pessimistic. For most Europeans, cultural events are beyond their reach financially.

    Dr Farrell mentioned the schism in the Orthodox church between Moscow and Constantinople over The Ukraine (2.08.00). Where can I find more about this?

    You both talked briefly about “museum wars” – the looting of the Baghdad Museum and the fire in the National Museum of Brazil. Two dots make a line. Where can I find out more about the big picture on this story?

    Great piece of advice about making your bed every day. It does indeed make a difference.

    1. Joseph and I are planning on doing a Solari Report on the latest developments at the Vatican. He says we should address your question then. Which means it is not a short simple answer.

      1. Catherine,

        In NYC there are over 75,000 French expats living in the city. In the first time ever 6 public schools in Brooklyn are bi-lingual French/English with support from the consulate. For some reason they love Brooklyn. There’s 70,000 Italian expats and 120,000 British.

        There has to be a reason for these numbers.

        1. When you bring all the capital back to North America, you bring talent back with it. I think many more coming.

    2. Andrew:

      I agree the slow burn is squeezing people in Europe just at it is in America. However, I find the debasement to be have reached much further in the US and the infrastructure to be much more debased. So perhaps the US is just much further along.

      I attend and hear of many cultural events in Europe which are free. Accessing them is a matter of time and energy. It takes a lot of brains to navigate and the problem is that people become exhausted from the drain.

      I will ask Dr. Farrell for more on the schism – have you read my review of The Papacy? He recommended that I read it to help understand the schism.

      I will also ask him about the museum wars – there is definately a global pattern.
