  1. Dear Catherine,
    I don’t know if this matters to you, I just have to say it. No matter where I go, or what I do, whenever I feel lost I always come back to you, you are my compas. You two have never led me astray I trust you completely. I pray to God to keep you safe.
    Thank you for being our rock!

  2. Catherine, great show as always. I was wondering how does the dismissal of Fed Governor Lisa Cook fit into all this? You mentioned that military troops in US cities are being deployed due to possible budgetary or deficit concerns. What is Trump trying to achieve here? Are these two events interconnected? Thank you.

    1. Possibilities:
      1. Prepared to assert control of Commodities and Stock Exchanges and Financial Settlement Systems
      2. Get Palantir data and surveillance systems prototyped and working with municipal systems
      3. Land grabs
      4. Implement control grid – control of population when requiring digital ID and programmable money
      5. Control of narcotics and trafficking markets
      6. Shut down Democratic machines, power bases in a manner to more easily control Congress and budgets.

      1. Catherine, I do not rule out in the near future there maybe martial law. I always thought there was a chance of a military operation going on behind the scenes colleting data against people who have committed treason. Now the operation is in the daylight as the southern border is more secure, cartels are under pressure, Maduro is being targeted, and USAID has been cut off. It would not surprise me that during Jan 6 military people went into the Capitol taking advantage of the chaos and took laptops and placed hidden surveillance devices into offices. Lisa Cook mortgage problems is the opening salvo at the Federal Reserve to discredit it. IMO Trump wants to end the Federal Reserve as it has been nothing but a wealth transfer tool over many decades.

        1. Trump is implementing the control grid and there is a battle over who will control the control grid. Trump is fighting for the people Epstein crew to control it.

      2. Trump just past a flag burning order, the military may be positioned to stop civil unrest as more deep state scandals are revealed. As the scandals are released to the public there will be push backs.

          1. Michael Yon and Oscar Blue did many youtubes tracking the movements of many young military age men travelling thru Panama with the assistance of organizations to reach the U.S. border. Where did they settle in U.S.? Were they trained in creating chaos? Are they on someone’s payroll? As more and more documents are released on the many misdeeds of the deep state will these young men be “triggered” into action? If so, the Trump administration should be positioned to act rapidly. Interesting times. A time to drink water from a stream by cupping your hands and not lapping the water like a dog. Let’s see what the silver market does the few weeks as the bankers maybe losing control over the price.

      3. Thank you, Catherine. Should we be prepared for some sort of economic or monetary “crash”, in lack of a better word, in the coming months? These events, and others as discussed with John, seem to point towards this direction, though nobody can predict the future, of course.

  3. Back in Australia – “People know people who have been turned around at the border”. Australia post has stopped delivering to Australia.
    I met a woman who was invited by the New York Tourism Bureau to see New York to promote it in Australia. They did a very good job explaining why not go: Subway trains got delayed, bad breakfast cost almost $30 and coffee $10.

    1. Tried to send a letter from the Netherlands to the US last week. Was informed at the post office that the Netherlands is not allowed to send packages and letters to the US.
