It is the day of Christ’s suffering and crucifixion, the ultimate sacrifice of someone completely pure and innocent, a day that constitutes a deafening cessation, an earth-shaking hiatus in the course of historical time.
We now applaud Manookian and her “health freedom sisters” in Idaho, Miste Karlfeldt and Sarah Clendenon, for spearheading the Idaho Medical Freedom Act, which Governor Brad Little signed into law on April 4 after having vetoed a prior version the week before.

This one is a barn burner, especially if you are interested in the U.S. Civil War and the monetary and fiscal history of the United States and Europe during that period. It’s got it all—missing money, presidential assassinations, secret technology, Cabinet betrayals, and cover-ups.
As our 1st Quarter 2025 Wrap Up starts rolling out, Solari takes pride in celebrating as our Hero of the Week our very own Culture Scout, Nina Heyn.

For Music of the Week, we are listening to the opening theme song, “Forgiveness,” of a Danish TV crime series, The Eagle: A Crime Odyssey. The song was written by acclaimed Danish film composer and Emmy Award winner Jacob Groth.

In this episode of the Solari Report, host Catherine Austin Fitts interviews John Christensen, a globally recognized economist from London who has extensively studied and exposed financial corruption, especially relating to tax havens.
John Christensen is a man of many hats: economist, forensic auditor, system analyst, documentary filmmaker, publisher, political activist—and exposer of the offshore network of tax havens.
Representative John Sjaarda of South Dakota fearlessly led the passage of the first Cash Bill in a deep red state. Senate Bill 219 (SB219), signed into law by Governor Larry Rhoden on March 11, requires the acceptance of cash at school-affiliated events, including sporting events, concerts, and plays.
We are as much dismayed as Solari Report ally Dr. Joseph Farrell at the sad news that the three-story Macy’s in Philadelphia’s famous Wanamaker building (originally the Wanamaker Department Store) will close in March 2025.
I read Unstressable: A Practical Guide to Stress-Free Living because I found Mo Gawdat’s interviews about AI fascinating. He was the Chief Business Officer at Google. After learning about AI and coming to his conclusions about what it meant, he promptly resigned and changed his life.

When you think about it, our daily lives are a continuous flow of investment choices.

Wall Street on Parade’s Pam and Russ Martens regularly report on the bank’s felonious track record and the unsavory behavior of its CEO, Jamie Dimon
People often ask us, “Why does no one else ever talk about the missing money?” In early 2019, intrepid journalist Matt Taibbi did. After the implementation of FASAB 56, Taibbi not only gained mastery over the complex topics of “classified money-moving” and failed Pentagon audits but wrote two excellent articles about these developments at Rolling Stone.
The stories we create for future generations keep us alive far beyond our time. Porsche—a family-run enterprise out of Stuttgart—has given rise to a rich collection of stories about German engineering talent, whether focused on race cars or aircraft engines.
Not the winner, but nominated for Best Music at this year’s Academy Awards, “Like a Bird” is a beautiful song about the inner pain and desire to be reborn a better human being that is expressed so profoundly in the movie Sing Sing.

Like few other pieces, “Le Rappel des Oiseaux” struck a nerve in French Baroque music history. Everything that developed later through Debussy, Ravel, or Messiaen was forecast in these few phenomenal minutes of sound.
