When Supply Chains Break and There Is No Place-Based Resiliency, Then Money Can’t Solve Your Problems

Money & Markets

Long term pain

John Titus and Catherine Austin Fitts review an “unprecedented” week with 12 videos, arguing that the Iran war is rapidly destabilizing energy and supply chains as the Strait of Hormuz disruption drives oil higher, threatens LNG production (Qatar force majeure), and spikes fertilizer costs for U.S. farmers. They discuss Iran striking U.S. bases and communications, a cost-and-time imbalance in air defenses, and warnings that the conflict could break Western economies and markets. Domestically, they cover private credit fund withdrawal gates at BlackRock and others, concerns over pension marks, and claims that DHS/ICE actions target dissent, including reports that many accused “attackers” are U.S. citizens with no convictions. They also discuss European vulnerability to gas, shifting Russia sanctions, Israeli intelligence ties in U.S. tech, proposed local ICE partnerships, and Solari updates on local politics, programmable money, scams, impersonation alerts, and resilience actions like gardening.

  1. I have a full stocked pantry. Not so much green fingers even after years practising. I knew not much good could come of blocking strait of Hormuz, but hearing possible famines is still shocking to hear. As an european I am bracing my self. Not much to notice, still business as usual for most people, unaware of what “could” come. Oh boy, did the european leaders f’ed up! I hope all european countries become sovereign again and persue smaller economic ties like the Benelux once was.

  2. Catherine is correct about the coup d’état using data. The data is being funneled to WEF partner companies, for their Cloud (data centralization), where the central databases will be located.
    Those cloud providers, like Amazon, MS, and Google now control the infrastructure for government, tax, election, financial, health, medical, etc. systems.

    But it’s more than just data. It’s about scrubbing and using the data to create invaluable information, via analytics, aggregation, normalization, etc. and that information will then be the foundation for the Agentic AI. Now they have strategic intelligence. The Agentic AI will create psych profiles, behavior models, etc. which can be used for political influence, enslaving us, etc.

    Anyway, this is how the WEF is implementing the global data governance they’re using to build the digital control grid that Catherine has been mentioning for years.

    I’m glad you’re seeing people making a huge difference! Some are, like those at Solari, yet it seems too slow. And there seem to be so many ‘wrong’ people.
    But I thank them. I’m just trying to pay my bills and get by day to day, and I think that’s the struggle of the majority. That’s probably why they are discouraged. Being able to participate seems like a luxury and requires time AND money AND a strong foundational sense of security. Many people are standing on a flimsy foundation, regardless of the sacrifices they make to build a strong one.

    Even you mention needing more money and resources. So you’ve answered your own question.

    They’re also taking existing legacy functionality from US companies (intellectual property built by the taxpayers with taxpayer money for the last 60+ years) and funneling it to WEF Partners.
    Thats why they won’t need employees. I’ve actually seen this happening in 2018 at a Telecomm and was alarmed. I was vocal and angered many. India is a co-conspirator and now we’re seeing it. But I’m convinced, underneath, that India views the U.S. as an enemy. “Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.” Behind the scenes, I believe, India is doing their own insidious coup d’état.

      1. I can change if you tell me what to do.

        Should also mention, I am exceptionally grateful for the resources that we have been given.

  3. Forgive me if you discuss this later in this episode…I’m only about half way through. I’m seeing reports that Iran has offered to allow any oil transports to pass through Hormuz if the oil is traded in yuan. Would Europe become desperate enough for energy in order to start buying oil in yuan?

  4. I just saw news of the Stryker hack that caused thousands of devices across hospitals to brick. Some info on it here:

    https://youtu.be/KHwILMPyq60

    That features within the Microsoft architecture of the software was used to wipe these devices makes it so it is very difficult to tell if the attack is false flag or a real attack. Certainly hospitals became very unsafe during Covid now they may be unsafe because they are shutdown. And the WEF and other groups have been warning about massive cyberattacks for at least a decade. Now seems the time.

    Also compounding the shut down of the Straights of Hormuz, it does look we are now looking at a massive shortage of parts to repair items like refrigerators or cars, etc. due to tariffs and now the sea lanes have become unsafe.

    One other issue with the middle east up in flames that I have not heard anyone speak about is all plastics are petrochemical products and the dominant player in this industry is Sabic which is run out of Saudi Arabia. Sabic has rolled up most plastic manufacturers and nearly everything manufactured relies on the raw plastic resins mostly produced by Sabic. I don’t have good handle on where all the factories are for Sabic but GE used to be the dominant player but they were bought out by Sabic decades ago. A shut down in plastics may be more significant than a shutdown in rare earth’s. I don’t believe that China produces it own resins and Russia does not have a very developed plastics industry.

    Last, now that the US has been shown to be weak in the Middle East, how much of this is going to ripple into Africa and South America. I would think Africa would push back first as China is already deeply involved. But Venezula is tenuous, bribing a bunch of politicians is very different than having a true grassroots movement. Epstein and Gaza has also ripped the mask off for these countries.

  5. Absolutely incredible report – thank you so much Catherine, John and Solari Team!

    Have both Utah and Idaho put up “guardrails” for programable money. You mentioned that Utah has – is it the only state so far?

    1. And what can we do to get “guardrails” in place in our states that don’t have them yet?

  6. People who run the global financial system “deeply competent”??? In Truth, they are deeply flawed and demonically responsible for creating what we are experiencing now and throughout our lives. Being good at manipulation of others is not competency. Why paint these hooligans in fancy clothes and environments as “deeply competent” when their responsibility for disaster is in your face and life? That approach never works. Those at the top need to be excused from what they have created without excuse or lauding their shrewdness. A new system run under Truth needs to be installed. When we can completely turn ourselves over to Truth all will be provided. These kind of descriptions keep people in the nauseating rabbit hole.

    1. In my experience they are deeply competent at planning, project management, operations, logistics and managing people and more. Sorry that makes you angry, but the fact that they are implementing genocide and depopulation does not make them incompetent at the skills and activities in which they excel. Like mind control. A lot of the people who practice occult practice go out and find people who do do that stuff and are great at operations and implementation. You might want to read Political Ponerology. I just flew from Nashville to Atlanta and am not ready to board for Amsterdam. Looks to me that the majority of the people do not ever know there is a war and the ones that do are in a zombie trance in their opinions. Everyone looking at their phone. Took quite a lot of science, research, operations, and investment to get 70% of the population paying and voluntarily carrying a surveillance and mind control device. I described this because it is relevant to understanding whether or not the straits shut down is a war or an op. It is looking more and more like an op. We will see.

      1. I would like to see a little anger from everyone about what these devils are doing instead of praise for their killer competency. What I said was I would never hold up anything they do as competent. It is misleading. No matter what they have set up, they are not competent. They are plain evil disguised in the finery many lust after. I appreciate the truth that is revealed about the systems pipelines but question many aspects of what even truth appears to be in this world. After all everything but love in this world is an inversion of the truth. Love is competency. Lets lay the children and people being torn to shreds along side these competent overlords to reveal their incompetence. It should not be measured by their banking, real ID, AI, control grid acumen. If we face the truth that they are wholly incompetent, they will not survive.

    2. I respectfully disagree. I did not hear in what Catherine said a celebration of the character of these people at all. Rather, seems to be a simple statement of fact: Those who control the global markets are skilled in manipulating money, markets, and the masses. You might consider the immortal words of Sun Tzu from the “Art of War”:
      “There is no greater danger than underestimating your opponent”.

  7. Re: resiliency and gardening. This is my fourth year learning as I go as a homesteader. Garden is bigger each year, and now have added chickens. I have been researching getting a “Worm Farm” in order to A: Provide more fertilizer/compost & B: Feed my free-rangers during the Winter months if Tractor Supply’s supply of feed becomes compromised or unaffordable. After hearing about the fertilizer crisis as a result of the Persian conflict, I finally ordered my “Worm Ranch” (I went big: 16×12:) from Uncle Jim’s Worm Farm online. Will update when it arrives.
