Money & Markets

An Epidemic of Skeptics

In this episode of Money and Markets on the Solari Report, Catherine Austin Fitts and John Titus dive into various current events and trends through a lens of skepticism. They begin by discussing a controversial shooting in Washington, DC, suspected to be a false flag operation aimed at justifying an increased National Guard presence. The conversation then shifts to the reverberations of Jeffrey Epstein’s scandal, particularly focusing on Larry Summers’ connections and their fallout. Trump’s recent decisions, such as commuting sentences and policy impacts regarding private equity, further feed into discussions of economic and political maneuvers. They also touch upon the skepticism around Moderna’s declining stock amidst rising vaccine side effect concerns. Lastly, they explore the impacts of cashless societies, legislative moves, and international economic shifts, notably in Japan and Russia. Tune in for an insightful discussion packed with critical analyses and skeptical perspectives on current global events.

  1. Consumers won’t boycott – they want comfort and convenience.

    I encountered three more people at the grocery store yesterday, cashiers, who can’t do basic math. When I asked: Doesn’t it bother you that you can’t do basic math. They shrug and turn their back on me.
    It’s not just the schools or diet, the parent’s are also allowing this.

    1. As my late husband would say: what makes this worse is that it isn’t math they can’t do, it is arithmetic.

  2. The segment “Google Strives to Keep Data Center Water Use Secret…” (1:26:50) reminded me of a similarly-scaled syphoning of ‘free’ water by another ‘responsible’ corporate neighbor – Nestle. Their water bottling plant (bottling multiple well-known brands) in Stanwood(?), Michigan (beginning late 90’s/2000’s) was pumping the local aquifer 24-7, disproportionately impacting the function of other local businesses, residents, water bodies and other wild habitats – as evidenced by sinkholes, depleted wells and mud flats, far beyond the plant’s property – which angered many locals and activists alike, sparking a lawsuit.

    This story was one of five from across the globe that comprised a 2008 documentary film, ‘FLOW: For the Love of Water’ that focused on drawing attention to the then growing corporate privatization of water. But I’m guessing that most of us in the mid-2000’s, including the film-maker, would have laughed at anyone suggesting that data centers would become a civilizational threat…

  3. When John Titus exclaimed, “terror, terror, terror,” I was immediately reminded of this 16-year-old YouTube video (Everything is Ok Montage) of two Brits with megaphones in London. This link takes you right to the time one of them says pretty much the same thing. https://youtu.be/qAQrsA3m8Bg?t=346 however I encourage all to watch the whole video to help us maintain our state of amusement. Enjoy.

  4. That ICE business is the Vietnam Phoenix Program finally brought home as Douglas Valentine warned us it would decades ago.

    1. Yes, he did a great job of warning us. Operation Safe Home was an other Vietnam Phoenix Program that they used to gentrify and build the private prison business.
