  1. Are dollars bills or cash really legal US tender for all purchases? A family member recently tried to purchase a birthday card at Dollar General for 50 cents, and when trying to pay in cash, was told cash and coin is no longer acceptable, must be digital payment only, i.e. credit card. You’re right Catherine.

    1. Here’s a relatively recent article on whats up with cash and different state laws in the USA. https://count-money.com/states-where-cash-must-be-accepted/
      BTW – In the rural mid America town where I live there are two Dollar General stores. I visited one in the last week and was unable to purchase a Vanilla Visa Gift Card. Actually ALL the various prepaid cards for sale had been removed. The clerk said it was because that particular store had volunteered to test a new “system”. She said there had been too many problems getting the “system” up and running, specifically regarding selling any prepaid $$ cards. The 2nd store in town had not changed their operation(s), so I went there instead and purchased what I wanted. This explanation was obviously not especially clear or detailed, so I’m not sure what to make of it.

      2. Would be interesting to know the vendors of their old and new point-of-sale system software, to educate other retailers who may be considering or otherwise incentivized to switch to that new vendor.

    2. That’s when you tell the retailer you will go elsewhere and leave. Then spread the word to not shop there

  2. “National Guard’s 294th to deploy to Horn of Africa,” this was in the Dec 30, Joplin Globe written by their staff reporters and isn’t an AP story. Although they can’t say how many people are going or for how long, Missouri’s Army National Guard’s 294th Engineering Company, a subcompany under the 203rd Engineering Battalion, is deploying to the Horn of Africa and will be there through the fall/winter of 2023. The Horn is the easternmost part of Africa and includes all or part of Ethiopia, Eritrea, Somalia, Djibouti and parts of Kenya, Sudan, South Sudan and Uganda. “Their mission will be to conduct vertical and horizontal construction projects with an emphasis on vertical construction to establish and maintain the infrastructure required to achieve and sustain activities across the range of military operations in the area.” . . . The Missouri National Guard said “These construction tasks throughout the country are crucial for contingency operations and will have a positive impact on real-world issues.”

    Any ideas what might be going on with this?

    1. Maybe putting in control grid infrastructure (5 G, etc.) or engineering projects to enable extraction of rare minerals for computing devices? These are guesses.

      1. Could be. Makes me queasy when they’re secretive and reveal so little with their odd wording.

        1. I think based on Latypova and Watt’s exposure of the “Covid pandemic” as a DOD operation with the Pharma jab developer contracts being for “demonstrations,” it is safe to consider most, if not all, military ops as advancing the globalist agenda to control, surveil, and depopulate. Thankfully, pushbacks are happening and having a measure of success. As with smart meters going in, the ops are stealthy and deceptive. FYI, fewer than 11 states have secured a temporary right to refuse or medically opt-out of getting a smart meter. I was involved in the fight with Duke Energy in NC. If you were forced to take a smart meter, your best bet is an Iron Maiden Faraday cover: the best one on the market and a technological feat of non-compliance. CAF and RFK Jr. and right when they say we can’t comply our way out of this.

          1. That’s awesome you fought the smart meter. I’ll look for the Iron Maiden, thanks! The link included in the notes for this Money and Market has an excellent written account of the same information Latypova and Watts put together. I thought it would be a good article to copy and share with legislators.

          2. My wife put aluminum foil over the top of our smart reader and the electric company, Progress Energy at the time, could not read it and had to knock on the front door to come look at it in the backyard. (We have a dog.)

          3. Smart meter faraday cage with tiny aperture to allow utility to read meter. This stops EMR from entering your house. This engineer, Bill Bathgate, offers all kinds of sine tamer devices for dirty electricity, etc.
            I have an Iron Maiden on my meter. I live in NC where the Utilities commission offers a medical opt-out IF you are a Duke Energy customer. My local cooperative is not covered by this regulation.

      2. That is very worrying! Possibly Intensive 5G installation based on the language of “vertical and horizontal projects?” Horizontal could be detention facilities and jab delivery centers?

  3. Dear Catherine I’m a new Subscriber (retired Financial Advisor) that started following You and group of ladies on CHD and decided to get in on the Solari Group of informed folks. I admire your courage against the machine in what you went through in your past as I saw a lot of shenanigans myself going on back to the Keating 5 S&L fiasco to the 2008 bank meltdown as Bernacke & little Timmie (Geithner) helped their BiG Boys cabal while sticking it to the American folks!
    ❤️ the candid discussions on all fronts w/ John Titus and looking very cautiously at the coming year, as I too ? big changes are coming and not all for the better in fighting Mr Global and his Dark Forces of Evil.
    Btw my spouse with a museum background is fascinated by huge painting behind you on many of your shows of a huge Greco/ Roman warrior.
    Who is that depicting and who’s painter?
    Take Care:)

  4. Happy New Year to Catherine, John and the entire Solari team.

    I have enjoyed all of 2022 with you.

    Thanks

  5. What a great way to finish the year 🙂

    Dear Catherine, dear John and all the great staff – Happy New Year! It’ not over.

  6. Ukraine is a Nato proxy via Poland. Having submitted to the Soviets, the Poles have now swum into the trap of ‘Davos’.
    Germany will be empty handed. No war industry without natural resources.
