Catherine Austin Fitts was a Wall Street investment banker, Assistant Secretary of Housing under George H.W. Bush, and founder of Hamilton Securities. Today she publishes the Solari Report (@thesolarireport). In this “101” conversation, recorded in New Hampshire, she lays out the difference between reality and official reality.

We start local, with what she calls “the great poisoning” and what it costs a city budget like Quincy’s. Then we go to Washington: the missing money in the federal books, the 2018 accounting rule she says lets the government keep secret books, why she defends cash, and why she believes programmable money could become a control system unlike anything we’ve seen. Her first step to seeing reality: admit, “I’m the patsy.”
