In this episode of Money and Markets, John Titus and Catherine Austin Fitts tackle a range of pressing issues against the backdrop of the ‘Incredible Shrinking Patsy,’ a metaphor reflecting the U.S. military’s declining power and increasingly absurd narratives.

They discuss various geopolitical conflicts, including the U.S. military pivoting from Russia, Middle East tensions, and the implications of renaming the Department of Defense to the Department of War.

The conversation also delves into the influence of the mega-rich, economic disparities, and the systemic challenges faced by small businesses and the general populace. Key discussions include the questionable future of U.S. brand influence globally, legal ramifications of changing institutional names, the ongoing war in Ukraine, and the troubling impulse control issues among global leaders.
