Money & Markets

Don’t Spy on Me

John Titus and Catherine Austin Fitts take on the theme “Don’t Spy on Me” — a week of surveillance stories that read like satire: Flock cameras swarming an innocent man with armed police, garbage trucks that spy on you (your car already does), AI facial recognition at the grocery outlet, and an AI web where “we’re just rats in the walls.”

They cover the strain on the US strategic petroleum reserve, Pennsylvania’s teachers’ pension citing private equity drag amid a $41B shortfall, and the widening wars: renewed strikes on Iran, a new Saudi–Yemen front, the drone strike in Kiev, and Lavrov’s declaration that Russia no longer trusts the West’s readiness to negotiate.

They confront Washington’s claimed “sovereign right” in the deaths of children abroad and Israel’s continued shooting of children. In Hey Robot: Harriet Hageman demands answers from Zuckerberg over Cheyenne data center contamination, dry-cleaner permits are being used to build AI power plants, and a gambling pandemic traces back to DARPA.

Pushback: public informants rat out the Batman & Robin Flock-camera vandals, and DeFlock maps license plate readers in the open. In house at Solari: How Poland Kept Its Culture, Cracking the Sleep Code, the State Legislative Briefing on Programmable Money, and the Hero of the Week — Jon Rappoport.

  1. Just this weekend I was trying to explain the danger of Flock cameras to a friend who is very well connected with politicians and regulators in our community. After listening to this Money and Markets, I would like to see a clip made of the Flock related parts that we could share with politicians and the public. I think it would be effective

  2. Step back and consider the name “Flock”….

    It’s disgusting, that we are all sheep to be herded (to slaughter) by the powers that be.

    1. When I consider sheep these days, I am always brought-back to the interpretation of “sheep” in the Bible as referring to our thoughts, which we all must tend, and keep-close to the heart-lest they stray out-of-bounds and create chaos, or worse. Negative thoughts lead to crap speech and then similar actions, and wicked thoughts are the first portal through which the demonic can latch-on. The OP of hopelessness begins in our individual minds. Seems critical now to keep the mind in touch with the Christ in the heart, and act from there: then we are unstoppable. Will meditate, pray, and then call all my Reps again. I will not serve Mileikowsky. Not a chance.

    2. Nope. Not me. I am not a sheep. Neither are you. Just called my Congressman. Talked to a lovely intern. Explained that I wanted him to vote to remove Section 219 from the NDAA if the Rules committee allows the amendment to go through. if not, he should vote against turning over our military systems and finance to a foreign country. If he does vote for it, I will consider him a traitor and intend to do everything possible to vote him out of office. The intern wrote down my name and location. He refused to give him my name. I explained that I was a taxpayer and paid his salary. He explained the rules were that he was required to get my name and was not allowed to give me his.

  3. I just want to tell Catherine and John thank you for giving me so much motivation to join my City Planning Commission. I’ve been listening to M&M for years and decided to take some local action and was voted in this past January. It’s crazy to figure out how the trickery works, but I’m slowly uncovering the sly ways folks use to get things approved. I’ve found that I actually like to research and prepare my 3 minute speeches to say at Council meetings! I’ve done one on the Flock contract and tonight it will be digital billboards within the city! Thanks for all the ammo and nudges to take action!

  4. Yesterday Thomas Massie has reported that Section 219 made it into the NDAA with neither debate nor vote. Today Jill and I called Rep Omar to vote against turning over our military systems and finance to a foreign country and to vote against the NDAA until Section 219 is removed.

    Looking ahead on this issue, the Senate NDAA (S. 4784) has related sections:

    Sec. 845. Report on the feasibility and advisability of establishing a
    strategic partnership on defense industrial
    priorities between the United States and
    Israel.

    Sec. 1217. United States-Israel Framework for Upgraded Technologies,
    Unified Research, and Enhanced Security
    (FUTURES) Act of 2026.

    Tragic. Reading these words I can’t help but think of Catherine’s frequent comment “Gaza is a method” and our founder’s warnings against foreign entanglements.

  5. I always have to turn on CC when I listen to M&M, because I have trouble hearing what Catherine’s saying. I thought it was my hearing, but I listened to the Open AI Discussion on the Solari Substack and I could hear Catherine perfectly. So I am thinking the problem is the earbuds reception, maybe combined with my hearing. Is anyone else having the same issue?
