Money & Markets
Crosshairs
Catherine and John open with the explosive public and political fallout from the Epstein files release. Despite bipartisan American support for transparency, they explore why Congress remains gridlocked and what this reveals about government accountability. With public patience wearing thin, they predict a turbulent political season ahead.
The conversation shifts to financial markets, where stablecoins are reshaping monetary systems while AI’s massive energy demands create new economic pressures. They examine the speculation driving asset tokenization and what it means for traditional finance.
High interest rates and labor shortages—intensified by ICE raids—are crushing American farmers. Catherine and John connect these domestic struggles to broader geopolitical tensions, US-China trade dynamics, and shifting global energy patterns. Even the Fed’s controversial building renovation spending gets scrutiny.
The episode concludes with practical resistance strategies against pervasive digital monitoring. From switching to “dumb phones” to using Faraday bags, they offer concrete steps listeners can take to protect their privacy as global and domestic policies face significant turbulent changes ahead.

I got a great phone for around $600 from Rob Brahman Tech, knows his stuff! https://brax.me. No google, no Microsoft, love it! He has many to choose from. Also has a great website about electronic security for phones, emails, websites. I gotta go see if there are any Solari faraday bags left to buy!
Catherine, it’s Mennonites, not Mennionites.

The “Gallery of Graphs” article is fascinating. Thank you.
Hello and Greetings everyone all over this world !
Does anyone know if the Syrian National Library was bombed ?
Its a bit of a cultural worry if the world has lost the contents of the national library of Damascus .
So much destruction of churches, libraries etc across Europe and the Middle East .
(Gareth and Jaimie Icke have produced a brilliant documentary titled ‘Why The Middle East?’ )
I looked up a list of destroyed libraries throughout history and WWI WWII bombed alot of important libraries .
There were attempts to bomb the Gothic cathedrals too. I have old postcards of Amiens Cathedral with sand bags piled up against the stained glass windows and the quatrefoils to protect them . We are in such dark times 🙁
Darkest before dawn ?
Here is the link of destroyed libraries if anyone is interested .

Hi Catherine,
I wish you would come to southern CA. I could host you in San Diego area for no cost at a local ranch in Alpine. Please contact me and we could put it together while you are out this way. I know you have many fans here.
I continue to be baffled by the hypocrisy of leaders who are pushing the green scam down our throat while at the same time pushing AI on us that will use so much energy to run and cause more environmental damage to us than anything else. It must be stopped, there is so much to it. We have no idea, it is like a freight train coming into our lives.
I have said for years that technology is a blessing and a curse and while I am grateful for our opportunities to interact I am also very nostalgic for simpler times in the 70’s when we weren’t tied to cell phones and computers, where we actually met in person and listened to albums and talked. I will be 67 this year and know life is short. The important things are real, friends, family, and spending time together while we still have our health, which is the most important thing. I do believe in building a legacy and would love to talk more about it.
I have thought of investing in a farm with some friends and teaching ‘real’ things, like growing food, sewing, working with animals, etc. I am looking into another state, as CA is a failed state. It is quickly becoming a third-world country as the middle class leave in droves and the wealthy and poor live together in disharmony. I have been here for 13 years now and the homeless situation is dire, the apartment buildings popping up everywhere are insane, many of them with no parking included, which makes no sense at all. These are for affordable housing in the city, I guess they think people will not have cars, which is ridiculous.
Can’t get out of here fast enough. But must have a plan. I spend a lot of time praying about things for that is where we have power and control. The power of prayer is real. Thank you for all you do. May God protect you, John and your team.
I know there is a real darkness that is trying to discredit all that is good and true. Hang in there and please contact me about coming to SD, I would love to host you and the ranch can host up to 100 people. At a time when anxiety is high in this world, we need grounding. The ranch is a grounding place owned by a wonderful family I am very close to. We host private parties, weddings, etc., on a small scale.
God bless you and our Solari subscribers. I am happy to speak to others who would like to get together in person in the San Diego area.
Our environment is fragile, life is fragile, we must handle things with care. Our government is pushings things on us, solar farms, wind turbines, gmo and hormones in our food, and now cryptocurrency and AI. This is a global attack and we must take cover. Thanks for keeping us informed, it is not pretty. It is a different kind of warfare, where if we are not in line we will be debanked and/or canceled.
I am deeply concerned because we are so divided and the evil, as with Epstein and his cronies, who are on all sides of the political spectrum, with many entrenched in organized crime. He is a scapegoat, as this has been going on for generations, beginning around WWII, interesting this is when the atom bomb was dropped and the world was never the same. We can’t let them win, we must persevere.
God bless you, your family, your team and all of the Solari family.
Please reach out to me about coming to SD! I would love to meet you and really talk!
Stay safe,
Jean
Lutnik and $500 T
