From Hollywood and Wall Street to DC and back again.

Steven Mnuchin’s career spans multiple domains—Wall Street, Hollywood, government, and global private equity. While he is widely known for serving as U.S. Treasury Secretary from 2017 to 2021 under Trump, his broader significance lies in how his trajectory reflects deeper shifts in modern finance. His career connects capital flows across sectors and borders, linking financial crises, public policy, entertainment, and sovereign wealth investment.

Mnuchin’s path is not simply a sequence of roles, but a consistent application of a core strategy: identifying moments of disruption, mobilizing capital, and leveraging institutional relationships. From restructuring a failed bank during the 2008 financial crisis, to shaping economic policy in government, to raising billions from global investors and re-entering Hollywood through corporate ownership, the same pattern repeats in different forms.

Mnuchin’s career could be broken down into three phases, all of which build upon each other.

1. Pre-government: Wall Street, Hollywood, and the financial crisis.

2. Government: Treasury leadership and global financial diplomacy.

3. Post-government: Private equity, sovereign capital, and media investment.

I. Pre-Government Career and the Financial Crisis

Goldman Sachs and Early Investment Work

Mnuchin began his career at Goldman Sachs, where he spent 17 years developing expertise in capital markets and financial structuring. After leaving in 2002, he founded Dune Capital Management, which became the base for his investment activities across finance and entertainment.

At the same time, he launched Dune Entertainment, which specialized in financing major motion pictures. Rather than producing films creatively, Mnuchin operated as a financial partner, providing capital in exchange for a share of profits. This approach positioned him as part of a broader trend in which Wall Street firms began underwriting Hollywood production risk.

Dune and its successor ventures later helped finance films tied to major studios, including Fox and Warner Bros., participating in large-scale “slate” deals that spread risk across multiple projects. Over time, these partnerships contributed to films that collectively generated tens of billions in global box office revenue.

The Financial Crisis: IndyMac and OneWest

The defining moment of Mnuchin’s early career came during the 2008 financial crisis, when the collapse of the U.S. housing market created widespread banking failures. IndyMac, a major subprime lender, failed in July 2008. The FDIC took control and sought investors to stabilize its assets.

In 2009, Mnuchin led a private investor group to acquire IndyMac’s assets. The group invested roughly $1.3–$1.6 billion. The FDIC provided “loss-sharing agreements”, limiting downside risk. The bank was relaunched as OneWest Bank, focusing on managing distressed mortgages and continuing lending operations.

By 2015, OneWest was sold to CIT Group for about $3.4 billion. This represented a highly profitable outcome and established Mnuchin as a skilled distressed-asset investor. The deal was controversial in that tens of thousands of homeowners were foreclosed upon, and critics argued the structure privatized gains while limiting losses through government support.

This way of doing business became the new model. Consider if you will what I just described to you, a broken and corrupt system being replaced in a manner that didn’t require a complete demolition. Trump must have been watching this just prior to his announcing his run for President thinking, “Hmm… I could use this guy in replacing America’s financial system.” Or maybe they were already working together.

II. Treasury Secretary: Policy, Power, and Global Financial Networks

In 2017, Mnuchin transitioned from private investor to U.S. Treasury Secretary, placing him at the center of both domestic economic policy and global finance. As Treasury Secretary, Mnuchin oversaw key areas of the U.S. financial system:

• Government borrowing and debt management.

• Banking regulation and financial oversight.

• Economic policy implementation.

He played a leading role in passing the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, which reduced corporate tax rates and restructured aspects of the U.S. tax system. He also supported scaling back parts of post-crisis regulation, arguing that existing rules constrained lending and economic growth.

Covid Relief

Mnuchin oversaw programs such as:

• Direct payments to households.

• The Paycheck Protection Program (PPP).

• Emergency lending facilities in partnership with the Federal Reserve.

These measures aimed to stabilize financial markets, preserve employment, and prevent a deeper economic collapse. Similar to what he did during the financial crisis of 2008.

Middle East Engagement and Sovereign Wealth Relationships

One of the distinguishing features of Mnuchin’s tenure was his extensive engagement with Middle Eastern governments and sovereign wealth funds.

• He made roughly 18 official trips to Gulf nations during his tenure.

• He met at least 27 times with heads of sovereign wealth funds.

These funds—particularly those in Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, and Kuwait—control vast pools of global capital and are influential investors in international markets.

Mnuchin’s activities in the region combined multiple objectives including, financial security and sanctions. He worked to coordinate the combat of terrorism financing and illicit financial flows. As well as the enforcement of economic sanctions, especially related to Venezuela and Iran.

Mnuchin worked towards developing closer economic partnerships between the U.S. and Gulf nations, having regular meetings not just with governments, but with sovereign wealth fund leadership. This represented a major shift in Treasury’s role going from government-to-government diplomacy to direct engagement with global pools of capital.

The Abraham Fund

In the final phase of his tenure, Mnuchin was involved in launching the Abraham Fund, a proposed $3 billion investment initiative tied to the Abraham Accords. The fund aimed to support infrastructure, energy, and development projects across the Middle East. It was intended to translate diplomatic agreements into economic cooperation. While the fund ultimately did not materialize in a lasting form, it illustrates a key theme of Mnuchin’s tenure, the blending of government policy with investment strategy and capital deployment frameworks.

It’s easy to see that the work Mnuchin did as Secretary of Treasury has led to where we are today with Trump’s actions in Venezuela and Iran. In particular, Mnuchin spent years cutting off Iran’s funding making them weak and vulnerable.

One can also see, if one thinks hard enough, that Mnuchin was working with the Middle Eastern oil countries to diversify their assets. Letting them know that the petrodollar system was going to fall. Diversify or die. Follow the path forward that Trump has laid out, or fall to the wayside, the choice is yours.

The relationships Mnuchin made and developed became central to the next phase of his career.

III. Post-Government: Private Equity and Global Capital

After leaving office in January 2021, Mnuchin returned quickly to private markets, founding Liberty Strategic Capital. Mnuchin raised approximately $2.5 billion, backed heavily by sovereign wealth funds, especially from the Middle East. These funds acted as limited partners, providing capital that Mnuchin’s firm deploys across sectors. This reflects the modern private equity model putting global capital into a centralized fund and diversifying the assets.

Investment Focus

Liberty Strategic Capital focuses on:

• Technology and cybersecurity

• Financial services

• “New content” and media investments

This diversified approach allows Mnuchin to operate across sectors while applying a consistent investment framework.

IV. Return to Hollywood and Media Finance

Mnuchin’s post-government activity marks a return to Hollywood—but in a different form from his earlier film-financing career.

Shift from Financing to Ownership

Before his time in government, Mnuchin financed individual films through slate deals focusing on risk-sharing and structured investments. After his time in government, he shifted toward ownership stakes in media companies, emphasizing long-term value creation at the corporate level. This reflects a broader transformation of Hollywood becoming increasingly financed through institutional capital rather than project-level deals.

Lionsgate: Core Investment

Mnuchin’s most significant move back into entertainment has been his investment in Lionsgate, a major film and television studio. Mnuchin made an initial stake of roughly 5.5% in 2023. He increased to about 7.9% in 2024 and expanded it to 13% by 2025, making his firm a major shareholder. By late January of 2026, Mnuchin joined the board of directors, giving him direct strategic influence. Lionsgate stock price is up 117% in the past year. Could Lionsgate be a confiscated asset (E.O. 13818)?

Care to guess which movie studio produced the biopic film about Trump’s good friend Michael Jackson? How about the themes and messaging in these big box office franchises also produced by Lionsgate—The Hunger Games, Twilight, American Psycho and John Wick.

The Hunger Games—Elites entertaining themselves by pitting working-class people against each other in a battle to the death.

Twilight—Centuries old vampires, essentially an elite bloodline of parasites feeding off the people.

American Psycho-There’s a character running the state of California that has an eerily similar appearance to the main character from American Psycho. Coincidence?

John Wick—An organized crime family killed his dog and burned down his house. They wouldn’t leave well enough alone as Wick sought revenge escalating things all the way to the top, all the way up to the High Table, the council of twelve crime lords who run the world.

Essentially, Trump is John Wick.

New Content and Digital Media

Mnuchin has also signaled interest in evolving media sectors. His fund targets “new forms of content”, including digital and technology-driven media, streaming platforms, interactive media, and digitally distributed content ecosystems. This aligns with the broader industry dynamics of media increasingly integrating with technology and global capital markets.

Continuity Across His Career

Despite the shift in scale and structure, Mnuchin’s approach remains consistent: to identify undervalued or transitional opportunities, deploy capital in structured, risk-controlled ways, and participate in upside while minimizing direct operational exposure. In Hollywood he has moved from financing films to influencing studios.

V. Reinvestment in Banking: NY Community Bancorp

Mnuchin has also continued investing in the financial sector. In 2024, his firm helped lead a $1+ billion investment into New York Community Bancorp. As part of the restructuring, Joseph Otting was brought in as CEO to assist with stabilization. I’m sure most reading this don’t recognize the name Joseph Otting, if you do, give yourself a gold star.

Joseph Otting was the Comptroller of the Currency in the Trump Administration. He was the top federal banking regulator. He oversaw all nationally chartered banks in the U.S. from late 2017 until he left in 2020. Trump also tapped him briefly as acting head of the Federal Housing Finance Agency.

In hindsight, I can see that many of the people Trump appointed in his first term and much of what he did during his first term, was about setting up what he would do in his second term and who would initiate those changes. Essentially, replacing the financial system. He brought them in to make the changes within the government, then put them back out into the private industry to initiate those changes.

One could also argue that the changes we seem to be experiencing today already took place during Trump’s first term, and we are just getting caught up to speed. It could be argued that American’s weren’t ready then, but they are now. In my opinion, it is probably a combination of the two. Some changes occurred in secrecy during Trump’s first term and are being publicly rolled out today, while some changes really are occurring today.

Mnuchin’s career reflects several broader trends.

Crisis investing—major financial disruptions create opportunities for large-scale private investment.

Public–Private mobility—senior figures increasingly move between government and private capital roles. Globalization of capital sovereign wealth funds play a growing role in U.S. markets.

Financialization of the media—entertainment is now deeply integrated into global investment strategies.

Conclusion

Steven Mnuchin’s career reflects the interconnected nature of modern finance. During the financial crisis, he built wealth by acquiring distressed assets. As Treasury Secretary, he shaped economic policy while engaging directly with global capital. In the post-government phase, he leveraged those relationships to raise billions to invest across sectors—including banking and media.

Across all stages, his strategy has been consistent, deploying capital at scale during periods of transition, while operating at the intersection of finance, policy, and global investment. His career illustrates a broader reality of today’s economy, finance, government, and global capital which are increasingly interconnected systems, not separate domains. And within that system, individuals like Mnuchin function not only as participants—but as intermediaries linking those worlds together.

Many within MAGA view the cabinet in Trump’s first term as being inferior to his new cabinet. Why did he choose not to bring them back? The truth is, some of the original cabinet were “for show” and the rest have been unleashed into the private sector to initiate the real change. They’ve been let off the chain to rebuild the financial system. They’ve been let loose to take down the City of London.

Melania.

The documentary Melania released on January 30th is a film directed by Brett Ratner and released by Amazon MGM Studios. It gives an inside look at Melania Trump’s life over the twenty days leading up to Donald Trump’s second inauguration. The film focuses on her preparations as First Lady. She maintained control over the film by being an executive producer.

Melania was a surprise hit; it had the biggest grossing opening weekend of any documentary in the past decade. During its opening weekend, the film faced some controversy, not just because of who she is or who she is married to, but because of the film’s director Brett Ratner.

Who is director Brett Ratner? He has directed blockbusters that have grossed over two billion in total. The Rush Hour franchise, Red Dragon, X-Men: The Last Stand, and The Family Man to name a handful. Ratner was a big-time movie director in Hollywood until he was blacklisted during the Me Too movement in 2017 and hadn’t worked in Hollywood again until Melania.

Ironically, or not, the most recent release of three million Epstein file documents was released on the same day the documentary Melania was released. It was quickly discovered that Brett Ratner was in the files. There is a picture of him cuddling with a female on a couch. On the same couch is Jeffrey Epstein and another female. Both females have their faces blacked out. The picture seems pretty damning. Why would Donald Trump allow Ratner to direct and work so closely with his beloved wife? It doesn’t make any sense.

Brett Ratner explained that the female he is cuddling with on the couch was his fiancée at the time. He said the picture was taken around twenty years ago, before Epstein was arrested the first time. Ratner said this was his first and only encounter with Epstein. Assuming he is telling the truth, and I have no reason not to believe him, this puts a very different perspective on things. Again, Donald Trump trusted Ratner enough to direct and work closely with his wife in the making of her documentary, Ratner had to be fully vetted.

When we see a blacked out face in the Epstein files, we automatically assume they are a victim of abuse, and likely underage. Trump was originally reluctant to release the Epstein files calling them “a hoax” and saying, “innocent people would be hurt”. He obviously understands that some of the Epstein files are real, but some are very fake. In my opinion, Obama’s FBI created fake pictures or altered pictures to muddy the waters, to poison the well. Essentially, creating a situation where if some are provably fake, then you can’t trust any of them to be authentic.

Imagine if a picture of you with one of your children was in the “files” and they blacked out his or her face. The act of blacking out the face makes it appear you are doing something immoral and depraved. What if you were just sitting on a couch watching a movie with your 12-year-old son or daughter? My wife isn’t exactly a large human being; I can’t imagine what could be said of me with a quick swipe or two of a black Sharpie pen over my wife’s face in a picture. Ratner’s fiancée was in her 20’s when the picture was taken of her. It’s not always easy to tell how old someone is when their face is blacked out, and we immediately assume someone is a victim when their identity is hidden.

Who blacked out the face of Ratner’s fiancée in the picture, when did they do this and what was their motivation? In my opinion, the FBI has given us no reason to trust them, even during Trump’s first term. I don’t believe it was until Trump was re-elected that many of the deep state swamp dwellers were rooted out, and they likely still aren’t completely gone yet. One can understand Trump’s reluctance in releasing anything the FBI has on file.

In my opinion, once Obama was in office, he immediately worked to discredit everything the FBI had on Epstein and the people associated with him. My evidence for this, not a word was spoken of Epstein during Obama’s eight years. This and the fact that so many elites felt comfortable publicly associating with Epstein after his original conviction. To put it simply, they never thought Hilary would lose.

Brett Ratner had a reputation of being a bit of a playboy and has been accused of inappropriate behavior by some actresses in Hollywood. Mind you, I have no reason to trust Hollywood actresses, many of whom would say or do just about anything for fame. They aren’t above destroying someone’s life to get ahead.

As we witnessed with the public persecution of Michael Jackson in the 1990s, when one stands up to the deprived system, not only are their lives destroyed, but the depravity they despise so much is projected onto them. The depraved elites not only take you out for standing up to them, but they make your mere existence a stain on humanity.

As different as Michael Jackson and Donald Trump may seem to be on the surface, what they stand for and how they’ve been attacked by the Cabal is very similar. Trump had a preview of how he would be treated when he saw his friend Michael Jackson first go through it. He knew what was awaiting him when he came down the escalator with his wife in 2015.

The Grammys.

The 2026 Grammys that occurred two days after the release of Melania, was a coordinated attack on Trump. Jokes made insinuating Trump’s involvement with Epstein got cheers from the crowd of Satanic pedophiles. This freak show of self-adoring megalomaniacs who regularly incite hate and violence from their fans preached about how only love can conquer the hate that comes from their opposition, groups like MAGA led by Trump. I honestly don’t understand how one can endure any awards show that took place during the past decade, I could barely sit through a 5-minute recap of the show.

I can’t imagine anyone who suffers from Trump Derangement Syndrome will watch the documentary Melania, and I think the makers of the film understand this. I believe the movie was made to influence those with an open mind, those who aren’t permanently broken. What the audience sees is a family that loves and respects each other. A family that loves their country for everything it stands for and everything it has given them.

What Ratner shows us in his film is a family with a tireless pursuit to restore their country, desiring for America to be better than it has ever been in their lifetime. The movie reminds one that the Trumps don’t need this. They don’t need the abuse and attacks. They don’t need the 18-hour days. It’s a burden and responsibility they gladly endure. The film shows the respect, humility and love the Trumps have for each other and their country. It is easier to see this behind the scenes, away from the press conferences and podiums. The film humanizes the Trump family, as much as you can humanize a family who has gold toilets. LOL!

For the 4-6% that are lost forever, they will never see the things that you and I see. They won’t pick up on the emphasis of Michael Jackson’s music in the documentary and connect the parallels between him and Trump. They won’t recognize that Melania and Donald have a real marriage and not a “show” marriage. They won’t see that the Trump kids love and respect their father, nor will they see how tirelessly he works.

They will only see what they are capable of seeing, and that’s fine, not everyone will come around, and we need to be okay with this. This documentary was made for the people who are capable of questioning the narrative. I’m sure many people who are still on the fence when it comes to the Trumps, walked away from this movie with a different opinion of them than they had going in. Just another one of those touches that add up over time.

For the people waiting for a monumental event to occur that will wake up the masses, this is how it is actually occurring. Slowly and gradually. People experiencing things differently than they have been told to believe. The truth can’t be forced upon people; they have to experience it.

Will the new Fed Chairman be the same as the old Fed Chairman? Should we get excited, or will we inevitably be let down? Will the same people who controlled Jerome Powell also be in control of Kevin Warsh? The answer to the last question is “yes,” but let me point out why this is a good thing.

Trump was in control of Jerome Powell; he was always in control of Jerome Powell. He put him in charge in 2018 to do what needed to be done, and what needed to be done was painful to the average American. As Trump has said on multiple occasions, he doesn’t like the results of his second term, the Biden years.

Evidence that Trump and Powell have always been playing on the same team is the fact that the DOJ recently dropped their case against Powell for misappropriating funds in the remodeling of the Federal Reserve Building, as well as the announcement that Powell may want to stay on in some capacity at the Fed. In my opinion, all the name calling against Powell, “Too late Powell”, “Too stiff”, “Too political”, “Too stupid”, is nothing more than Kayfabe, fake fighting. In his eight years as Fed Chairman, Powell did everything Trump wanted him to do. He played the role of “the heel”, the bad guy.

This does not mean that Powell is a saint or that he doesn’t have a past, but that he did the right thing in regard to implementing Trump’s agenda, willingly or unwillingly. But why did Trump choose him to play such a vital role in taking down the City of London? Let me explain.

When Trump first entered the White House in 2017, he had the backing of a slim majority of American citizens, but simply having the majority wasn’t enough, not nearly enough. The vast majority of government leaders, big businesses, the media and Wall Street were firmly against Trump and stood in the way of Trump making America great again. Trump had a steep mountain to climb and needed to carry the least amount of baggage as possible, he needed to create the least amount of friction as possible.

In stepped Jerome Powell, who replaced the shroom-tripping troll Janet Yellen. Yellen was completely controlled by the Deep State, and she did everything in her power to sabotage the first year of Trump’s presidency, but not just his first year, she did damage that would linger on into future years. Some may recall she later went on to be Biden’s Secretary of Treasury.

Yellen’s job was to undo all the good Trump was doing with the economy through his slashing of corporate taxes and deregulation. Trump’s policies encouraged companies to bring their money, and in some cases, manufacturing back to America. American corporations viewed the existing American corporate tax rates as being unfair, with the changes Trump made, the new tax rates were deemed fair.

Yellen raised interest rates as soon as Trump won the election in 2016. She raised them four times in Trump’s first year if you include the months following the election while Obama was still in office. She raised them a full 1% in a year. Prior to the 2016 election, the Fed only raised interest rates once during Obama’s eight years, 0.25%. The month after Obama’s win in 2008, the Fed cut rates from 1% to 0, and the year prior to him winning, rates were at 5.25%. In other words, in the year leading up to Obama being elected rates went from 5.25% to 0.

Obama received what is considered a strong tail wind to the economy through massive and aggressive rate cuts of 5.25% in about a year, while Trump had a 2% rate increase during his first two years in office. In the first case, a fake economy was being created. In the second case, a real economy was being extinguished.

Trump knew he wouldn’t be able to get anything done with the financial system until Yellen was gone and replaced with someone who would work with him. Understand, from day one, Trump’s main goal was to take down the City of London and the financial system they use to enslave the world.

In 2017 and 2018, Trump wasn’t going to be able to march his guys into vital positions without extreme pushback. He would need to compromise or appear to compromise. Powell was a Wall Street guy through and through. He had always been loyal to Wall Street. He was viewed by the Deep State players as being an acceptable compromise.

Once in power, Powell started to raise interest rates, which caused Trump to publicly complain, and the rate increases led to a fall in the stock market as Trump said would happen. Powell eventually reversed course, cutting the rate increases he just implemented, bringing the stock market right back to where it was. Trump and Powell needed to create the persona that they weren’t working together, and in fact Powell was working against Trump. The Deep State needed to believe that Powell would always have their backs and was loyal to them, not Trump.

When the Cabal tried to take Trump down with the implementation of the Covid hoax in 2020, they left themselves exposed, like a prize fight who drops his left hand to throw a right hook. Trump seized the opportunity to go for the knockout blow.

Trump now controlled both the Fed and the Treasury, printing up $6.2 trillion and putting into the financial system. This caused massive inflation in 2021 that would need interest rates hikes to be extinguished. Powell, or you could say Trump hiked interest rates in 2022 and into 2023. This was like a body blow to the City of London, who’s Euro dollars were crushed. The holders of these U.S. dollars held overseas in offshore bank accounts faced a dilemma, continue to allow their value to drop in their Cayman Island bank accounts, or move their money to the U.S. where they would be taxed, regulated and transparent.

Not only was this the beginning of the end for the City of London, but it was also an opportunity to capture Big Tech. The same companies that worked against Trump now had to rely on Trump for their mere existence. The same could be said for the crypto whales. Without being officially in office, Trump had broken and captured the system.

Wall Street vs. Main Street.

While Jerome Powell is known as a Wall Street guy, Kevin Warsh is known as a main street guy, someone who cares more about the “little guy” so to speak. Some of this may be true, but what is important to understand here is that both are characters playing a role. Powell’s role was to ring in the destruction of the City of London, and Warsh’s role is to administer the changes that will benefit the average American.

One could say that Powell had the unenvious task of delivering bad news, while Warsh has been given good news to tell. Warsh will keep inflation low, while lowering interest rates, making homeownership more affordable, and debt less burdensome. Main Street will take priority over Wall Street.

Kevin Warsh.

A little bit about our new Fed Chairman. Kevin Warsh is an American economist and former public official best known for his service on the Board of Governors of the U.S. Federal Reserve System during the global financial crisis in 2008. Born in 1970, Warsh built an early career at Morgan Stanley, where he worked in mergers, acquisitions, and capital markets, gaining firsthand experience with financial institutions and global markets. He later served in the George W. Bush administration as Special Assistant to the President for Economic Policy and Executive Secretary of the National Economic Council, roles that placed him at the center of U.S. economic decision‑making.

In 2006, Warsh was appointed to the Federal Reserve Board, becoming one of its youngest governors. During his tenure, which lasted until 2011, he played a prominent role in the Fed’s response to the 2008 financial crisis. He was closely involved in emergency lending programs, bank recapitalization efforts, and the development of unconventional monetary policies designed to stabilize financial markets. At the same time, Warsh earned a reputation as a thoughtful skeptic of prolonged monetary accommodation, particularly large‑scale asset purchases, warning about potential risks to financial stability and the Fed’s independence.

After leaving the Federal Reserve, Warsh returned briefly to finance and academia. He became a distinguished visiting fellow at Stanford University’s Hoover Institution, where he has written and spoken on monetary policy, central banking, and economic governance.

When Warsh was appointed to the Federal Reserve Board in 2006, he was considered a bit of a wunderkind, much younger than others in his position. He was a mentee of the Fed Chairman at the time, Ben Bernanke. When the Fed rolled out QE1 in November of 2008, which meant lowering interest rates to zero, printing more money and adding debt to the Fed Balance Sheet to create liquidity in the financial markets, he thought it was the right thing to do. He viewed the financial system as needing to be on critical care.

With the second rollout of quantitative easing in 2010, QE2, Warsh began to warn of the dangers of continuing on this path of artificially stimulating the economy. He believed the kid gloves needed to be removed and baby bird needed to be pushed out of the nest.

Warsh went along with QE2 out of respect to his mentor Ben Bernanke, but this would be the last time. In 2011, he said enough was enough. He washed his hands of the situation and left the Fed.

Warsh’s fear was that artificially stimulating the economy would create a risk of massive inflation and government dependency. The ironic part of it is that the money they were putting into the banking system wasn’t even being used by the banks to stimulate the economy. The banks were afraid to lend the money out because they feared the government could ask for the money back at any time. So they just sat on it.

Many of the investment firms that took TARP (troubled asset relief program) loans from the government just sat on the money and when it was time to pay back the loans to the government; they simply gave the money back. Completely unused, but the Obama Administration took credit for saving the financial system.

0% interest rates and easy access to loans meant that businesses, especially tech start-ups, could cheaply borrow money to run their day-to-day operations, and we should all know by now how many American tech companies got their start, DARPA and the CIA.

Warsh feared the U.S. was setting a horrible precedent, they were creating nepo baby companies who would never be able to detach themselves from the government teat. How would the economy function once a normal economic environment was reintroduced. The Obama Administration believed in kicking the can down the road, which left it to the Trump Administration to do something about it.

Even with a massive reduction in corporate taxes when Trump took office the first time around, the American economy still wasn’t ready for higher interest rates. The American economy under Obama was propped up on toothpicks, and those toothpicks needed to be replaced with cinderblocks before real change could occur.

Higher interest rates were needed to destroy the City of London. As soon as they are no longer needed, interest rates will begin to fall. Likely not down to unsustainable levels as during the Obama years, but to healthier, more sustainable levels.

Warsh has been chosen to play the role of the good Fed Chairman. This may be a role he earned, but it is a role just the same. It is evidence that this Greek Tragedy we have been forced to live through is about to change into a feel-good movie.

I can lay out reasons to be suspicious of Warsh. Warsh worked within the George W. Bush presidency. After leaving the Fed in 2011 he became a distinguished visiting fellow at the Hoover Institute. The Hoover Institute is a “think tank” run by Condoleezza Rice. Rice was the Secretary of State under the forementioned Bush and Cheney. Rice has strongly endorsed Warsh, but she has refused to endorse Trump. She has publicly shown support for some of Trump’s policies, particularly his foreign policies, such as his actions in Iran.

One could look at the Warsh appointment believing this is Trump attempting to appease the Neocons, or one could look at it as the Neocons wrongly believing they will have their guy at the Fed. Whatever the case, Trump is in control, he isn’t being fooled by anyone, nor does it seem he ever falls for the traps laid out for him to fall in to.

Trump needed Powell to do the things he needed done, things that were painful to the average working American, but necessary for the destruction of the City of London. Trump now needs Warsh to step in so Trump can transition to policies that will benefit Americans, that will give Americans financial relief and hope.

Don’t get me wrong, when I talk about roles and characters, I understand the pain we have endured is real. It’s the narratives that are orchestrated and over dramatized like an Italian opera.

I find myself keeping an eye out for the “fat lady” warming up her pipes backstage. When she finally enters the stage, we will know the opera is about over.

While I understand that more and more people are waking up to the truth and are accepting the reality of our manipulated existence, every once in a while, you run into someone who makes you aware there are still people who refuse to not only accept the truth but even listen. They are literally incapable of listening. To the point of talking over you to avoid listening.

How do we deal with these kinds of people? Do we argue with them, do we match insult for insult, or do we simply do like it says in the Bible, shake the dust off our sandals and walk to the next town. Some people won’t be reached, they can’t be reached, and we need to accept this.

The other day after meeting with a client at a Starbucks, I pulled out a book to unwind for 20-30 minutes before getting my free refill of iced coffee and heading back to the office. A few minutes into reading the Raymond Chandler 1940’s detective novel I brought, a man plopped his things down next to me and went to the counter to order a coffee.

Out of the corner of my eye I could see he looked a little strange, a little flaky, the kind of person that comes to Starbucks in the middle of a workday because they want to be around other people, in need of a conversation, even if it is with a complete stranger.

I realize this is a lot to assume about a person with just a quick glance, but some people just have that look about them. Weird and lonely. It’s surprising how accurate your instincts are when you listen to them. We are supercomputers able to make decisions and determinations in the blink of an eye. Women probably understand this better than men, making split second decisions about men in public when safety is a concern.

The man sat down next to me with a room full of empty seats and tables. I made sure not to look up, I kept my head in my book, hopefully he would get the clue that I wasn’t interested in having a conversation with him, that I wanted to read my book and drink my iced coffee.

It didn’t work, after 30-seconds he asked me what I was reading. I couldn’t be rude, so I said it was an old detective novel, it was a bit of escapism for me going back to another time. A time when people didn’t have computers on their desks or smartphones in their hands, and the 1940’s detective-lingo was like a foreign language.

I don’t know what I was thinking giving so much detail, I should have just said, “A Raymond Chandler novel”, smiled and put my nose back in the book. I did smile and put my nose back in the book, but it was too late, he immediately interjected that he was reading a book on marketing, and that he was a small business owner, he was an inventor.

Doubling down on my stupidity, unable to be impolite, I asked him what he invented. This was a mistake; he went into painstaking detail. After five minutes of listening to him talk about himself, I motioned toward going back to reading my book. A kind of double handshake if you will. A few seconds later seeing that I began reading again, and without my asking about it, he began to talk about the book he was reading.

He went on about the importance of marketing, about how it didn’t matter if you had the greatest product in the world if no one knew about it. He then started talking about successful businessmen and how they grew their companies. He said at some point they can’t spend their money as fast as they are making it. According to him, Elon Musk can’t spend his money fast enough, as hard as he tries.

Finally, I interjected into this one-sided conversation, stating that Elon Musk wasn’t actually a very good example because he doesn’t live in a mansion or own a super yacht as billionaires like Bezos or Gates. I said that Musk doesn’t really treat his money like it’s his own, he understands it’s not, that he is the steward of billion-dollar companies that he was put in charge of running. I said that most billionaires don’t become billionaires through brilliant marketing; by outworking their competitors and having ingenious ideas. They are often handed their businesses; they are made the face of their companies.

To which he strangely got angry and said, “What am I supposed to do with that information, how does knowing that help me?” He said, “I don’t want to talk about it, change the subject.” To which I calmly said I actually have the opposite point of view, I refuse to talk about superficial things like the weather or sports, or mainstream media talking points, I’m only interested in talking about things like what really makes the world tick.

He had such a strange reaction to hearing something that is contrary to his existing beliefs. He quickly changed the subject of the conversation that I so obviously didn’t want to have with him in the first place to AI, and how awesome it is. I said I believed AI is very valuable and I use it every day, but one has to be careful with it. You have to check everything it says because it makes a lot of mistakes. With hostility in his voice, he then asked me why I was so negative about AI.

He got on his phone and a few seconds later looked up showing me how in just a few seconds he used AI to make a video of his daughter flying over a city. I so badly wanted to say in a sarcastic, fake angry voice, “How does knowing this help me?” Instead, I bit my lip as he said, “I just did that in a few seconds using AI, why do you feel the need to reject AI?”

At this point everything he said was in a hostile voice. I calmly explained to him that I don’t reject AI and actually use it every day, I think it is incredibly useful, but you have to double check everything you get from AI because it hallucinates and says things that are easy to see are incorrect. If you can see obvious mistakes, then there must also be mistakes that aren’t so obvious.

To which he blurted out, “It’s complicated”. I said, “It’s complicated” isn’t enough of an explanation for me, it’s the kind of thing one says when they can’t figure out why a relationship isn’t working. Again he said, “Why are you so negative?”

I reiterated that I’m not negative towards AI, I’m just cautious and curious as to why it makes the mistakes it makes, like giving people four or six fingers. He said this is because AI sees more faces than hands, so it doesn’t know hands as well as faces. To which I asked, “Then why when I use AI to animate a picture of my Korean wife who has light hair, does it turn her into a Caucasian?” “If it knows faces so well, why does it turn a Korean person into a Northern European because of their hair color?” To which he explained, “It’s complicated.”

After several accusations of not listening to him and being overly negative, I looked at my watch and said, “I need to go.” At this point my 20 minutes really was up. In leaving he said, “Yeah, you should go.”

Who says that? “Yeah, you should go.” I didn’t want to have a conversation with the guy; he refused to accept any of my social cues clearly showing that I just wanted to read my book. The guy refused to listen to anything that didn’t align perfectly with his view of the world, and if you didn’t agree with him, it’s because you don’t listen and are overly negative. Fifty words to my one word and he accused me of not listening. It’s weird how that works.

I was proud of myself for not going off on the guy who was completely obnoxious. But leaving the situation, it made me understand something about myself, something that needs to change. I allowed him to negatively affect me for the rest of the day. It, as well as a couple of other technology issues I had to deal with, put me in a bad mood, which I brought home with me to my family.

Shaking the dust off your sandals and moving on to the next town doesn’t just mean moving on, it means not taking the dirt with you. I understand now that the second part is as important as the first. I’m going to repeat that because I think it is really important, shaking the dust off your sandals and moving on to the next town doesn’t just mean moving on, it means not taking the dirt with you.

How many of us allow others to affect our mood, or to make us believe that life is anything less than a gift? How many negative people cause us to be just a little more negative, a little more afraid or a little more ungrateful?

It’s easy to simply remember, “Oh, don’t have a conversation with that guy,” or “Don’t tune into that influencer’s podcast.” But the harder part is not absorbing others negativity, fear, anger and ingratitude. The harder part is understanding when the people or messaging we expose ourselves to are actually making us a worse version of ourselves.

This is probably going to start off sounding a little off subject but please give me a chance to eventually tie it all together. Let’s start by looking at a timeline involving the Me Too movement you probably haven’t considered before, I know I hadn’t considered it until now. I hadn’t put two and two together. At the time it was happening, I was in the process of waking up, and everything seemed more organic to me, as opposed to now when I question everything that is occurring.

But first, understand three things. One, God loves you more than you could ever comprehend. Two, nothing is random in life. And three, we currently live in a world where everything we see or hear falls on a spectrum anywhere from completely staged to slightly manipulated.

On January 20th, 2017, Donald Trump was inaugurated as the 45th President of the United States of America. Ten months later on October 15th, 2017, the Me Too movement caught fire. Two months later on December 20th, 2017, Trump signed Executive Order 13818 which blocks the property of persons involved in serious human rights abuse or corruption. A year and a half later, on July 6th, 2019, Jeffrey Epstein was arrested, accused of the sex trafficking of minors and conspiracy to commit sex trafficking.

Me Too.

The #MeToo movement is said to be a global effort to expose and confront sexual harassment and abuse, particularly where power imbalances silence survivors. Coined by activist Tarana Burke in 2006 and widely amplified in 2017, the phrase enabled millions to share experiences and show how common these harms are. Me Too calls for believing survivors, strengthening accountability, and reshaping workplace culture through clearer policies, reporting systems, and education about consent. While debates continue about fairness and lasting change, the movement has transformed public conversations about respect, responsibility, and safety, influencing law, media, and organizational behavior worldwide, across cultures, generations, and industries today globally.

Let me get this straight, the Me Too movement started in 2006 but didn’t get any traction until 2017, eleven years later? Somehow it went dark for the whole Obama presidency. While much of the reported abuse occurred during the Obama presidency by known powerful friends of the Obamas, it didn’t come to light until Trump was in office. I thought Trump was supposed to be a misogynist and Obama is a stalwart for women’s rights. Very odd. Ask a liberal friend to make sense of this. Wait, don’t ask, it may cause them to have an aneurism or stroke trying to explain it all away.

It kind of reminds me of Jeffrey Epstein. First arrested during the Bush years, with the prosecution being helped by Trump and only Trump. There was total silence about Epstein during the Obama years. When Trump became POTUS, Epstein was arrested again, not just charged but thrown in jail. During the Biden years the left went right back to not caring about Epstein’s victims. Then when Trump became POTUS again and the left was tricked into believing Trump was implicated in the Epstein scandal, the left screamed for disclosure. Very odd how the party that claims to care the most about women’s rights seem to extinguish that passion when they are in power, when they can really do something about it.

What was the Me Too movement. What was it really? One could argue that the elites involved in the abuse of women and children kind of figured out “the jig was up”. With Trump in office, their depravity was about to be exposed and they knew it. They needed to get ahead of the story. Maybe throw a sacrificial lamb or two under a bus and muddy the waters to the point where no one could tell what was rape, what was sexual harassment and what was normal interactions between men and women.

The movement was financially supported by George Soros. It was a giant distraction. The engineering of social chaos. Everyone became confused as to what was appropriate and what was harassment. Many people were fired and many were cancelled without an opportunity to defend themselves. For many companies and organizations it became shoot first and ask questions later. It went from, “Believe the victims, to believe everything an alleged victim says or feels even if it is completely crazy and backed by no evidence.” “No, someone sitting with their knees apart is not a micro aggression, you have not been sexually harassed, you haven’t been victimized by this.” Legitimate abuse victims who were afraid to come forward before Me Too, were now terrified to come forward. The waters went from muddy to thick mud. All by design.

The elites basically bulldozed over the crime scene before the CSI team could arrive. This and they offered up a few patsies to take the fall for the rest of them. Everyone in Hollywood knew about Harvey Weinstein’s abusive behavior, he had no chance of surviving this. He had to go down, and the rest would look like saints for piling on accusations against him. All after the fact of course. None of them came forward until it was already determined that Weinstein needed to fall.

The Me Too movement is a 501c like the Clinton Foundation, which means that the money passing through it is tax-free. Perfect for money laundering. The same month that the Me Too movement took off, October of 2017, George Soros just happened to move $18 billion into his foundation, 80% of his net worth at the time. He eventually moved $32 billion into it. Where exactly did that money come from? It is very apparent that the depraved elites were scared and trying to hide their money before the Trump Administration went after them and confiscated everything they own. Seriously, what are the odds that Soros moved his money the exact month the Me Too movement took off?

If this had happened today, I would have picked up on it immediately, as I’m sure many of you would have as well. Because it happened over eight years ago, I was likely fixated by shiny objects, not to mention the Vegas massacre that took place two weeks prior, and the intent of it all flew right over my head. For me at the time, it meant comedy was now officially dead. Everything was now offensive and unacceptable. Something else took my attention just two weeks later, the first Q post.

This leads to Executive Order 13818 which Trump signed just two months after the Me Too movement kicked off. Trump made it official, if you committed crimes against humanity, they would take your assets. But how exactly would they do that?

To be honest, it has probably occurred in many different ways. Assets have likely been straight up confiscated. Accounts drained, property seized. In some cases, assets have probably been given over to other people to steward. In yet other cases, some people have likely been told, “You work for me now, your strings have been cut.”

I believe in the cases where CEOs and owners of companies have been able to retain equity and control of their businesses, it’s because these businesses are needed and these leaders haven’t committed acts of depravity that can’t be forgiven, or maybe a better word is “tolerated”.

I believe in cases where a line of depravity has been crossed, assets have been taken or given to someone else to steward.

Amazon.

I believe Amazon is an example of a company that is needed with leaders that may not have crossed a line they couldn’t come back from. Jeff Bezos announced that he was going to step down as CEO in February of 2021, one month after Biden took office. Why would he step down a month after Biden took office? Three months later Amazon announced that they were going to purchase the MGM library. Was the MGM library given to Amazon by Trump through EO 13818? Bezos has been allowed to continue being one of the richest men in the world. He gave a million dollars to Trump’s inauguration fund and attended the inauguration festivities as Trump’s guest. He has remained in contact and in the good graces of Trump.

Why do I mention MGM? First, did you know that Trump’s TV show The Apprentice had never been on any streaming service until Amazon Prime started airing it in 2025? I believe this was so we could see how Trump operates as a businessman. We would understand him better as well as his plan. Care to guess which studio produced the documentary Melania? MGM Studios, owned by Amazon. The documentary’s director, Brett Ratner, hadn’t worked in a while because he was cancelled during the Me Too movement. The media tried to smear him when the documentary was released. A picture was released with him, Epstein and a young woman sitting on a couch. The only problem is that it was the only time Ratner had ever met Epstein and the young woman was Ratner’s financee. They blacked her face out of course, so you would assume she was underage. Do people really think Trump would allow a pervert to direct and work closely with his wife on a documentary? Let’s just say the man was heavily vetted. And while I’m at it, no, Trump wouldn’t have allowed Michael Jackson to babysit his kids if there was any possibility that he was a pedophile.

Twitter.

In April of 2022, Elon Musk announced that he was interested in buying Twitter. The deal finally went through on October 28th, 2022. Does that date sound familiar? October 28th? Yes, October 28th, 2017, was the date of the first Q post. This was the exact five-year anniversary. There are no coincidences.

From the time Musk announced his interest in buying Twitter to shortly after taking ownership of it, Tesla stock was decimated by the Deep State. They were letting him know, “Tread lightly, we have the power to destroy you.” Musk is not a stupid man, he knew this would occur. Why would he pony-up $44 billion to buy Twitter and risk it and all of his other companies? The short answer is he didn’t. He was given Twitter. It was confiscated and handed over to him by the Trump Administration.

The interesting thing is that Trump wasn’t even POTUS at the time. But in reality, he never left office. Elon was the biggest military contractor during Trump’s first term, and he was given the task of running Twitter. I view it as more of a responsibility than a $44 billon dollar gift.

Paramount.

Paramount and Skydance Media merged when Trump came back into office. Both companies run by long-time allies of Trump. Paramount recently won the bid to buy Warner Brothers after a long battle with Netflix. Trump was integral in this occurring. He basically told the CEO of Netflix, “You can’t have it.”

I assume Trump views Netflix as a company and service that needs to stay intact and that is why he allows them to continue to exist. Not only remain in business but remain the largest streaming service in the world. I assume the leaders of that company, as bad as they may be, didn’t cross any lines that would have caused their company to be confiscated.

Sovereign Wealth Fund.

I assume the elites that crossed the line of no return ended up having their assets seized, likely put into the Sovereign Wealth Fund. These assets were added to the money generated by tariffs and financial commitments from foreign countries. But don’t be fooled, much of these commitments by foreign countries are payback for screwing over America for 30-40 years. It is the cost of continuing to do business in America. A cost they can’t afford not to pay.

There has been a lot of cryptocurrency confiscated as well. While criminals believed cryptocurrency was untraceable, all of their financial transactions were being closely tracked. It’s been done like The Emperor’s New Clothes. The criminals didn’t realize they were completely naked and acted accordingly. The currency they specifically used to stay hidden was in fact the most transparent form of currency of all. Busted not in the act of committing crimes, but for the payment of them.

DEI.

One could say that the Me Too movement ushered in DEI, diversity, equity and inclusion. As Trump has been playing 5-D chess for quite some time, one could argue the Me Too movement was at least 3-D chess being played by the Deep State. They threw a few sacrificial lambs under the bus, muddied the sexual harassment waters, and ushered in a new scam, DEI.

The Me Too movement created cover, a reason for rolling out DEI. DEI departments were created in companies and organizations. DEI officers would now patrol corporations, schools, government agencies, as well as the military and law enforcement. While Me Too was focused on sexual harassment, DEI would paint a much broader stroke, including sexual discrimination, discrimination against gays and trans, racial inequality and of course climate change.

DEI was suppressed during Trump’s first presidency, but the Biden-autopen presidency started the big push for DEI, or more accurately, the embezzling of the coffers. While Trump was busy taking down the international financial cartel during his unofficial term, the left was stealing and laundering money through DEI programs. This culminated between the election of Trump in 2024 and his inauguration in 2025 when the left siphoned off as much money as they could into DEI programs throughout the world. All of this famously uncovered by DOGE shortly after Trump officially took office again.

As with Covid, which was intended to take Trump down but ended up waking up more of the masses than any other event in history, Americans quickly grew tired of DEI, which helped usher in Trump’s return.

Some are confused by the concept of “full control”. In my opinion, full control means that during the Biden years, Trump was in full control of the big things, while the Deep State tried to steal everything that wasn’t bolted to the floor. In an attempt to salvage as much as they could during the Biden years, the Deep State sealed their own fate. All the money they stole was tracked leaving behind evidence to their crimes.

Inauguration Invitees.

There is no way of knowing for sure which companies are now under Trump’s control, which means they work for America now, but the CEOs invited to Trump’s inauguration would be a good place to start. Space was limited, so only a select few were able to attend.

Big Tech / Media / AI

• Meta (Facebook) — Mark Zuckerberg (CEO)

• Amazon — Jeff Bezos (Founder & Executive Chair)

A company not physically represented at the inauguration is Palantir, although the company did donate to the inauguration fund. Palantir gets more than half of its revenue from the US Government, I’m comfortable in saying Trump controls the company.

A company that most people probably haven’t considered is Intel, a computer chip company out of Portland, OR. The ten years prior to Trump being inaugurated again, Intel’s company stock had a total return of zero, in ten years. During this same time period, the S&P 500 was up over 200%. The last five years leading into Trump taking over again, Intel’s stock price total return was actually negative, considerably negative, while the other computer chip companies were soaring.

One could say Intel was a badly managed company but it’s much worse than that. The CEO at the time was a puppet of China and ran the company in a way that made them intentionally uncompetitive with China. Two months after Trump became POTUS again the CEO was replaced. Along with the CEO being replaced, the US Government took direct ownership of Intel, a partnership if you will. Since Trump took over Intel, a little over a year ago, their stock price is up 285%.

Imagine having to deal with the cognitive dissonance that comes from being a Trump-hating Portlander at Intel whose stock options tripled in the past year solely because of Trump. I suppose some could convince themselves the nearly 300% increase in value during the year Trump took over is just a coincidence. Anything is possible for some to hold onto their beliefs.

If you want to know which companies have submitted to President Trump and which companies have refused to bend a knee, time will tell. Those who refuse or are considered unredeemable, will likely not be around five years from now.

As I mentioned earlier, while some companies and CEOs have had their assets confiscated, most probably now have a new boss, and his name is Donald J. Trump.

It’s not a stretch to say the roles of men and women in America have changed over the years. It seems like a gradual change, but with specific events and times that have accelerated the changes. It’s like looking at a graph of the stock market. The longer you extend the timeline, the more gradual the growth appears. By shortening the timeline, to let’s say one or five years, one sees more pronounced rises and falls in the changes.

Some people have experienced major shifts in the changing roles of men and women in real-time, and some generations have been born with the changes already firmly established. Some people were around when women flooded the workforce in the 1960s and 1970s, while some were born into a society where it was already the norm. For some people, like me, we only experienced the pre-women’s movement through old 1950s reruns of Leave it to Beaver.

June Cleaver stayed at home, cooked, cleaned, shopped and ran errands for the family while Ward was at the office and Wally and the Beave were at school. The boys came home to a glass of milk and homemade cookies. Ward was greeted at the door with a kiss as June took his briefcase from him.

Watching the show as a kid, I never really thought about whether or not June was happy, whether or not she was fulfilled. I know this is Hollywood, but it seemed like a pretty good situation for everyone involved.

In the 1970s, my parents decided to go the path of the Cleavers, my mother stayed home and out of the workplace. Being that this was the 1970s, this choice meant that my parents would struggle to make ends meet. My dad was an electrician and often times had to go out on the road to find work in construction, away from the family for months at a time.

It was no longer the prosperous 1950s, the 1970s was a decade long recession. With two household incomes becoming more of the norm, the price of everything went up. We were blue-collar, middle-class, we never missed a meal, but there wasn’t a lot of extra money around to go on vacations or to buy new cars or to save for that matter.

I can’t tell you how many thousands of times I walked by my mother while she was sitting at the kitchen table smoking cigarettes, drinking coffee, while doodling numbers on a piece of paper with a stressed look on her face, trying to figure out how they were going to pay the bills that month. Again, we weren’t poor, but we barely made ends meet.

My parents never told us how tough things were for them financially, but even as a young child, you could see and feel the stress. As the kids got a bit older, my mother found herself going from volunteering her time at our school, to working full-time, all while taking care of the family, a lot of the time with my dad working and living out on the road.

My wife has never known a time when she didn’t work. My wife has never experienced the June Cleaver life. But even though my wife has worked full-time, she has never cut corners in taking care of the family. She quit a higher paying corporate job several years ago to take a job that allowed her to work from home so she could be there for the kids when they left for school in the morning and welcome them home in the afternoon. Not every working mom is afforded this, and she took a considerable pay cut in order to do so.

When it comes to having two working parents in our house, we are now the norm, and it’s been the norm for quite some time, especially in a higher-cost-of-living area. Over 70% of mothers with children in the house, work. We chose to live this way so that our kids could grow up in a nicer house with a backyard, in a safer neighborhood, to go to better schools and hopefully we could help them start off their adult lives without a bunch of debt.

It hasn’t been easy, and I believe that is the intention. It is hard raising a family today, but it’s been that way for quite some time. Many families break apart from the stress that comes from raising a family, either financial stress, or the stress that comes from burning the candle on both ends. By the 1970s, half of the marriages in America that started that decade were ending in divorce.

I believe this is all intentional, to create an environment where raising a family that stays together and produces well-adjusted kids requires nothing short of a herculean effort. They say that pressure is required to make a diamond out of coal. It’s safe to say that pressure more often grinds the coal into dust. We see this dust in the broken relationships and children with both physical and psychological issues that seem to be so prevalent today.

It wasn’t supposed to be this way, and maybe the harder part to process is that it wasn’t always this way. It didn’t start with the women’s movement in the 1960s, it probably started to happen closer to the turn of the century in the late 1800s and early 1900s. The women’s movement of the 1960s was probably like the “going all in” with the pushing in of the pot in a high stake’s poker game. But this process likely started with the eugenicists from the early 1900s who had a goal of depopulating the world.

Today, men complain about women and women complain about men. Men are frustrated with what has become of the modern woman and women rightly feel the same about men. Some even choose to now live without the other. A staggering statistic is that over half of single American adults are not looking to be in a relationship, but beyond that, they aren’t even interested in casually dating. How did we get to this point? As I said, the process probably started over a century ago and went into overdrive with the women’s movement of the 1960s, then was turbo charged in the last decade or so with the creation of endless genders and the obsessive glorification of LGBTQ+.

They say women need to feel loved and men need to feel respected. I agree with this, but I think at the end of the day, men want women to be lovely and women want men to be trustworthy. When I say “lovely” I don’t mean to look like a Barbie Doll, I mean to be kind and not bitter and controlling. When I say women want men to be “trustworthy”, I don’t mean to be honest, although that is important, I mean men need to instill confidence to their wife and family. Confidence that they will always be taken care of. Not just for men to have good intentions, but the ability to provide and protect.

Even if you are a man who has found a lovely woman or a woman who has found a trustworthy man, manipulation and societal changes affect everyone. Those who seek more traditional roles find pushback from every direction, both societally and financially.

Men’s inherent weakness is the desire to shirk responsibility, and women’s weakness is the desire to control. This is literally Biblical; it goes back to the Garden of Eden and the eating of the apple. Eve wanted control and Adam shirked the responsibility of their sin. Manipulate these two weaknesses and it is a recipe for destruction, the fall of man. This is exactly what has been done to American society. Manipulation of our natural weaknesses.

I saw a video of a middle-aged man waiting for a cab or Uber outside a hotel in Las Vegas the other day. He was wearing a diaper and had a binky in his mouth. No one could see this and not think the man has serious psychological issues. But what about the single man who sits around smoking pot and playing video games every night after work, or instead of work? Or what about the dad who does the same? The man in the diaper is obviously the case of a man desiring the lack of responsibilities that come along with being an infant, but what about the latter? At least to a small extent.

When we see a “Karen” throwing a fit because a minimum wage fast-food restaurant worker accidently put pickles on her burger, or she calls the police on a Hispanic man seen walking down her street or goes to HR over an unvaccinated coworker who refuses to stay 20-feet away from her at all times, this stems from a need for control. Control over everything around her. Why does she feel the need to have so much control? It’s because she doesn’t feel like she has any control at all in her life.

A grown man dressing as a baby, or a woman calling the police on someone for walking by her house are extreme cases, but in reality, they point out the growing desire of men to shirk their responsibilities and women to control everything around them. This is not something that has happened organically. These are not changes that just evolved over time. These changes to people are intentional.

If we go back in time to the legalization of abortion, it is not simply a matter of terminating unwanted pregnancies. It is also about men not having to take responsibility for their actions. It allows men to treat women as something they can discard, walk away from when they are bored with them, or when things start to become too serious or complicated. It causes women to rightfully lose trust and to seek more control over every aspect of their life, including the people around them.

What about women flooding into the workforce in the 1960s and 1970s? It meant men wouldn’t have to be burdened with as much of the responsibility of providing for a family. That burden shifted to women. But while taking on more of the responsibility of financially providing for the family, women still maintained most of the responsibilities in the household and the raising of the children. In other words, the women’s movement meant women ended up with an even shorter end of the stick.

The expansion of the welfare system in the 1960s meant that men could abandon their families or unborn children, knowing the government and taxpayers would take care of them. While women were celebrating their new rights, like abortion and more equal pay and opportunities in the workplace, they didn’t realize that even more of a burden was being placed on their already tired shoulders.

Satan hates women. His demonically possessed minions hate women as well. Why? Because women have the power to create. Women can create life. With all the power that Satan may have to torment and manipulate, he lacks the ability to create. Satan is jealous of women. Men who follow Satan are jealous of women. Some women who follow Satan hate women as well.

In my opinion, women have been manipulated by the media and society into believing they should want things that they don’t really want. They have been manipulated into believing they should want a man who is sensitive and romantic when they really inherently desire trustworthiness. A man they can trust to provide, protect and always be there for them and their children.

Both men and women have been lied to. Men believed that if wives entered the workplace, they would have more discretionary income, income to do more and have more. In reality, the price of everything just went up, leaving them right where they started, except now more tired and burdened.

Women should have all the rights that men have, including in the workplace, but in my opinion, working should be a choice for wives and mothers and not a responsibility. I couldn’t argue with anyone who considered me to be a failure of a man because following the financial crisis in 2008, for a few years we relied on my wife’s income. It wasn’t just a choice for her to work at that time; it was probably more of a necessity. Working in the financial industry, I made considerably less money for a few years, and we would have had to use our savings to get by if not for my wife working.

Maybe I should have worked 80 hours a week or got a second job, or a third job, although jobs were hard to come by then. There’s no easy answer. If I had done so, I would have been an absent father and husband in this scenario, kind of like what I grew up with as a kid. What I do know is that my wife should have never felt like she had to work at any point in our marriage. She should have never felt like she was walking a tightrope with no net beneath her. No, we wouldn’t have missed any mortgage payments if my wife didn’t work, but we certainly would have lived with considerable worry and stress during those years.

Men have freely relinquished their responsibilities which has led to changes in women that men don’t desire. A vicious cycle occurs. The man shirks his responsibilities, the woman loses trust in the man, then the woman tries to control him. The man escapes to his man cave to smoke pot and play video games, or to the garage to drink beer and work on his motorcycle. The woman becomes even more controlling.

In many cases, men and women find each other to be so intolerable that they choose to live without each other altogether. Japan is a dying country because the young people aren’t seeking relationships or marriage and they aren’t having kids. In too many cases, they are instead living independently of the opposite sex. Afraid of the opposite sex.

The state we are in was planned out long ago, a depopulation agenda that was slowly rolled out with the founding of Planned Parenthood and it really took off with the legalization of abortion and the start of the women’s movement.

An environment has been intentionally created to keep people from having healthy relationships and in turn, healthy kids. It’s easy to see this in the push of LGBTQ+, it’s even fairly easy to see it in the women’s movement, but it’s more difficult to see it in the economy. An economy that makes having a family much more difficult and much less likely to produce well-adjusted kids. It’s harder to see it in the food we eat, the water we drink, the air we breathe, and the toxins we are exposed to, how it’s all designed to keep us from procreating, in some cases physically unable to procreate.

If we stop glorifying LGBTQ+, remove the toxins we are exposed to, stop allowing our natural weaknesses to be manipulated, turn to God, and create an economy that allows men and women to no longer be burdened with financial stress, all of a sudden, we are no longer a dying population. I believe this is the direction the Trump Administration is taking us.

The many oddities that don’t seem to make sense to a rational person are actually coordinated and working in unison. Nothing is random. The plan to depopulate the world is Satanic in nature. The components of this Satanic plan must all be dismantled individually.

America must turn to God and away from Satan, re-establish traditional gender roles, remove toxins from our environment, and transform the economy for us to continue to exist.

It may sound like a lot, but the wheels are already in motion. If you look at all the policies that the Trump Administration is trying to implement, they all have one thing in common. They all make it more possible to have a healthy family and live a long and fulfilled life.

I know some people get angry with me because I refuse to give in to all the black‑pilling and fear porn. I refuse to accept the idea that we are moving at light speed toward a Road Warrior–like existence, where small gas refineries are protected by tire walls and steel‑fortified school buses, manned by guards wearing football shoulder pads and helmets, armed with flamethrowers and crossbows, fighting off violent gangs led by a bodybuilder in a hockey‑goalie mask and savages with Mohawk haircuts wearing leather butt‑less chaps. Sorry, but I just don’t see things getting to this point, even though it made for a really entertaining movie more than 40 years ago starring one of Trump’s Ambassadors to Hollywood.

If fear, anger, and anxiety help you get through the day, I don’t know what to say. You probably aren’t going to enjoy this article, but it may energize you with hate—directed at me.

The Jenga Analogy

I’d like to start off by giving an analogy of what I see is really happening with the financial system, and it involves a simple children’s game, Jenga—but not played the way it is intended. The black‑pillers—and to be fair, some people who are simply concerned and have been manipulated to the point of hopelessness—see a financial crisis coming that will lead to the total destruction of the financial system. They tend to see things playing out the way a game of Jenga ends when played by the rules. A Jenga tower is built by stacking individual blocks, which are pulled out one at a time by each player until the tower collapses. The person who pulls the final block that causes the tower to collapse is the loser.

I see the replacement of the financial system differently, and mind you, this isn’t how Jenga is actually played. I don’t see a collapse of the American economy at the end of it all. The way I see it, when each Jenga block is pulled out, a new one is put in its place. This will go on until all the old Jenga pieces are completely replaced with new ones. No collapsing of the Jenga tower. No collapsing of the American economy. Just the complete replacement of a corrupt financial system with one that is no longer designed to make debt slaves out of 99.9% of the population.

I believe the changes have been occurring in a way that will avoid a complete economic collapse. I understand that some people just don’t see things this way, and that’s fine. But if you can’t see things ending in anything less than a complete demolition—a skyscraper imploding on top of us all—I ask you: what is the point of anything? If you believe the building is going to fall on us, you are essentially saying that Trump is ushering in the destruction of us all and that it would be better if the system just stayed as it is. Consider, for a moment, that your pessimism might, in fact, be manipulated by a particular three‑letter agency.

FAANG, the Magnificent 7, and Palantir

FAANG stands for Facebook, Amazon, Apple, Netflix, and Google. The MAG 7 consists of Meta (Facebook), Alphabet (Google), Apple, Amazon, Tesla, Microsoft, and Nvidia. There is considerable overlap between the two, and then there’s Palantir. As I’m going to explain, many of the biggest and most important U.S. companies have had direct or indirect involvement with the CIA and DARPA. FAANG was a popular company grouping during Obama’s presidency, and the MAG 7 has been talked about extensively over the last few years.

One could argue that FAANG stocks kept the stock market afloat during Obama’s years. One could also argue that the Obama administration gave these companies preferential treatment over others. Ask yourself why there isn’t more competition in selling things online, finding things online, streaming online, or communicating online. These aren’t patented ideas.

During Obama’s eight‑year presidency, Facebook rose 235 percent, even though it wasn’t publicly traded until 2012. Amazon increased 1,300 percent. Apple rose 935 percent. Netflix jumped 1,400 percent. Google increased 373 percent. The MAG 7 has seen similar results since 2023, tripling the group’s value. Palantir has risen 1,900 percent since 2023, even though the company has existed since 2003.

Silicon Valley has always been controlled by the CIA, and I would argue that early 2023 is when Trump took over Big Tech. Think of the FTX scandal in November 2022. Think of the Silicon Valley Bank collapse in March 2023. I would argue this is when Big Tech’s strings were cut. It is not a coincidence that many Big Tech CEOs started climbing aboard the Trump train at that same time, a year and a half before the 2024 election.

The companies mentioned above are some of the biggest and most profitable companies in America and in the world. They are also vital to society and used every day by most Americans.

Net Neutrality

Net neutrality isn’t what it sounds like. It’s not about giving a level playing field to smaller companies; it’s about making the many pay for the few. Net neutrality forced all companies that used internet bandwidth to pay the same amount for usage. This meant that Netflix and YouTube, which together used roughly half of all bandwidth, paid the same as everyone else. This is like going to a restaurant with a group of people where two of them order drinks, appetizers, entrées, and desserts while everyone else orders iced tea, and then those two suggest the bill be split evenly. That’s what net neutrality really was: two companies screwing over thousands.

It isn’t a coincidence that immediately following Obama’s second term, the Obamas landed a major content‑creation deal with Netflix, a company he helped grow. One of his former handlers, Susan Rice, later took a seat on Netflix’s board.

Obama’s presidency began immediately after the 2008 financial crisis, which caused the S&P 500 to drop 40 percent and sent America into a recession. A significant portion of the market’s recovery came from the five FAANG stocks, all companies created and grown by the CIA and its puppets.

In‑Q‑Tel

In‑Q‑Tel is a U.S. nonprofit venture‑capital organization founded in 1999 that invests in early‑stage technology companies with potential value to U.S. intelligence and national‑security agencies. Chartered by the CIA but legally independent, it acts as a bridge between Silicon Valley innovation and government needs. I would argue that the CIA doesn’t actually fund tech companies to develop tools for intelligence agencies but instead releases intelligence‑developed technology to the public through Big Tech companies it funds and controls.

DARPA and Tech Origin Stories

DARPA, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, is a research and development arm of the Department of Defense. U.S. tax dollars fund its work, and much of that technology finds its way into society and the economy. The internet is one of the most important DARPA creations to ever reach Americans’ homes, offices, and pockets. When I was a kid, I heard that NASA invented Tang and Velcro. That wasn’t true, but NASA didn’t bother correcting the story. DARPA’s creations, however, are sold to Americans through carefully crafted origin myths, ranging from Harvard dorm rooms to companies started in a mother’s garage to one‑man online book operations. Movies are sometimes made to cement these stories. “No, really—that’s how it happened. I saw it in a movie.”

The CIA has used DARPA‑created technology to monitor and influence Americans, but Americans wouldn’t voluntarily give the CIA their information. Instead, the CIA creates companies and assigns public figures as their faces, then Americans willing give them all their information and allow themselves to be monitored.

Media Control and the Internet

In 1975, the Church Committee revealed that the CIA had been manipulating American media since at least 1960. CIA Director William Colby admitted under oath to the existence of Operation Mockingbird and the agency’s infiltration of media organizations. Before the internet, media control was relatively easy. Hollywood, music, television, radio, print, and broadcast news could be managed. The internet changed that. Communication became uncontrolled, anti‑government sentiment spread, and a solution was required. By 2000, more than half of Americans had internet access. Control would have to come through search engines and social media.

LifeLog and Social Media

LifeLog was a DARPA project intended to catalog every activity, communication, location, and relationship of an individual in order to identify patterns and predict behavior. The project was officially shut down on February 4, 2004, due to privacy concerns. That same day, Facebook launched. Much of Facebook’s early funding came from CIA shell companies. Google Earth originated from CIA satellite technology. One of Amazon Web Services’ earliest large contracts was with the CIA. In 2013, Amazon received a $600‑million contract, and later that year, Jeff Bezos purchased The Washington Post for $250 million. Microsoft and Google later secured similar government contracts.

Surveillance and Palantir

By the late 1990s, Bill Gates was one of the most hated men on the planet. In 2000, he launched the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and was quickly rebranded as a global humanitarian. While the public believed he was giving away his money, his net worth doubled. It has also been rumored that IBM engineers assisted with early Microsoft development and that DARPA created the technology behind Siri. iPhones now listen to everything around them and track everywhere one goes. There is no more effective surveillance device known to man.

Palantir was founded shortly after 9/11, with the stated mission of preventing similar events. The CIA’s In‑Q‑Tel funded it early when others wouldn’t, and the CIA became one of its first customers. I believe Palantir was created as a mass‑surveillance platform that was later used against the Deep State by Trump’s people, collecting evidence of their crimes against humanity.

Where Things Are Going

As Big Tech CEOs began apologizing and aligning with Trump, Americans were asked to move on. Trust remains limited, but Trump appears to view these companies as essential to the economy. Technology is where America still dominates globally. Other nations can compete in oil, mining, and manufacturing, but not innovation. America was founded on principles that reward creativity. I’m not asking anyone to forgive or forget. I’m explaining why a total economic collapse can’t be the answer. The cure cannot be worse than the disease.

Zuckerberg has loosened speech controls and eliminated DEI within his companies. Bezos is reforming The Washington Post and requiring Amazon employees to come into work again. Gates is funding nuclear power for AI and has lessened his belief that manmade climate change will destroy us all. Netflix abandoned a Warner Brothers deal, allowing Trump allies at Paramount to add it to their platform. Some corporations will be broken up. Some CEOs will be excluded. CIA strings will continue to be cut. Innovation will remain American‑led.

The economy isn’t fully recovered, but the future is brighter. Deals have been made. Justice will not come through a total collapse. Trump understands that America must be run like a business. Cutting the CIA’s strings is a victory, and if that’s as far as it goes, I can accept it—if it leads to America’s next golden age.

The likelihood is that, if you are reading this, you are probably pretty awake. You are not indoctrinated into the system; you haven’t taken the blue pill. I’m referring to the movie The Matrix, of course, and not Viagra. Whether you have been awake for 60 years, 20 years, 10 years, 5 years, or even if you have woken up within the last couple of years, chances are we’ve gone through a similar process.

When I first “woke up”—call it eight or nine years ago—I felt compelled to share everything I learned with everyone I encountered. To my surprise, it was received with much dismay and rejection. A lot of “side looks,” and in some cases, it led to severed relationships. I didn’t realize at the time how deeply ingrained the brainwashing was, or how it was designed to protect the lies at all costs, including by ending relationships.

COVID was strange for those of us who were awake at the time. To see seemingly normal people act so irrationally, filled with such venom and fear, referring to the unvaccinated as monsters for choosing not to inject themselves with an experimental drug—some literally wishing death on us—was enough to cause one to build a wall around themselves and choose not to engage with anyone who wasn’t clearly aligned with their beliefs and understanding.

If you are one of those people who built up a wall and now currently live in a bit of an echo chamber, as I probably do, you may think the general population’s understanding of the world is still stuck at day one of the COVID lockdowns. As I have discovered, the average person has come a long way. They may not be fully onboard, but they are at least at the station considering the purchase of a ticket.

With all of the craziness currently happening within the MAGA community, understand this: it is not real. It is not organic. It is clearly bad actors turning against Trump at designated times—an act of desperation by their overlords who have lost control. But don’t make the mistake of thinking, “If MAGA is acting this crazy, imagine how bad the ‘normies’ must be freaking out.”

While we are being led to believe MAGA is jumping ship, they aren’t. It’s all fake. Posts saying, “I voted for Trump three times, and now I’m done with him,” are not real people. They are fake accounts or fake MAGA. The truth is that more and more average people are climbing aboard the Trump train every day. They may not be ready to wear a red MAGA hat and do the Trump dance, but they are waking up to the truth.

Long story short, consider reengaging with some people who rejected you in the past, even if they hurt you. This mind control is a nasty thing, akin to demonic possession. Just as no one would hold the little girl in the movie The Exorcist accountable for her demonically possessed actions, maybe the same should hold true for our brainwashed society.

Orange County Trip

The day after the Super Bowl, I flew to Orange County for a work conference. Basically, an investment company flies in financial advisers to give them a detailed breakdown of their products. You fly in, have dinner, then the next morning you attend a six-hour conference before flying right back out again. It’s kind of exhausting but usually valuable when trying to better understand a company’s more complex investments.

Like most people reading this, I don’t really spend a lot of time meeting new people. I have my family, my clients, people at church—but I’m not really out there socializing or networking a lot. So when I find myself in situations where I’m interacting with new people, I become hypersensitive to everything and everyone around me. I’m an observer by nature, a sponge taking in everything I can.

After landing at John Wayne Airport in Orange County, I hopped into an SUV whose driver was there to pick me up and take me to my hotel in Laguna Beach. It seemed to be about a 30-minute drive. I love these situations where you have a captive audience and they basically have to listen to you—it’s their job. I also find service drivers and Uber drivers to be quite interesting, often with an “awake” understanding of the world, more so than the average American. Rarely do I choose not to have an in-depth conversation with the person driving.

Right off the bat, I usually dive into a divisive topic. I want to find out what the average American thinks and what they know.

When I sat down in the SUV, it was before I had the chance to see what the mainstream media was saying about the Bad Bunny Super Bowl halftime show that happened the day before. It wasn’t until I was going to bed later that night that I scrolled through cable TV and saw the liberal media pushing the halftime show as being the greatest of all time. They showed a Trump-hating Hispanic actor crying from pride. They tried to make it appear it was a truly unifying and inspirational event bringing immense pride to the Hispanic population.

Not knowing yet that the liberal media was glorifying the halftime show, and seeing that my driver was Hispanic (Juan), I didn’t ask about that perceived pride. Instead, I asked him about something else that was very controversial at the time.

“Juan, what do you think of all this anti-ICE crap?”

Swinging for the fences on the first pitch.

He immediately sat up a little more in his seat, and you could tell he was excited for the next 30 minutes. I proceeded to give my “elevator pitch” on many topics, and he expressed how crazy he thought the country had become. He soaked in everything I had to say and didn’t reject or disagree with any of it. Obviously, a lot of what I said was new to him, but I could see that it was filling in missing puzzle pieces in his mind. Things were starting to make sense to him.

If you think about it, when we meet someone new today, we are deathly afraid of having a conversation that might offend them—afraid of saying something that may get us “cancelled” or cause negative blowback. Therefore, we do the equivalent of talking about the weather. But even then, we have to be sure not to talk about what might be causing the weather. LOL.

Imagine giving 10–15 rides a day to strangers and having to talk about the weather with each of them. When one of those fares gets real and actually wants to engage with you, it must be shocking—in a refreshing way.

This was shortly after all the ICE pushback in Minneapolis. I asked Juan why someone would show up to a peaceful protest with a loaded gun and 50–60 rounds of ammunition. You don’t carry that much ammo unless you are looking to kill people.

He responded, “Exactly!”

Then he said, “These people make $80–100k a year as professional protesters.”

I was borderline shocked that a guy who certainly isn’t an anon had this understanding. Someone else even mentioned it later that evening during dinner. The reality is that many people are no longer buying the idea that protests are organic in any way. More people are open to the idea that nothing is truly organic.

As I got out of the vehicle, Juan told me he really enjoyed our conversation and wished me a pleasant stay. He said he hoped he would be assigned to take me back to the airport the next day.

Oh, and I almost forgot—being in Orange County, we talked about how weird it is that some white people are so obsessed with Disneyland, particularly middle-aged adults with no kids. He said his kids don’t even want to go to Disneyland anymore because of all the weird white people. I told him Disneyland brings back pleasant childhood memories for me—it’s kind of my “happy place”—but even I wouldn’t go without my kids.

At the financial conference, I experienced what I usually do when around people in the financial industry. I’d estimate that 90% of them tend to be discerning, logical thinkers rather than emotional ones. They generally have good pattern recognition and lean conservative politically.

That said, I think the average educated conspiracy theorist probably understands what makes the financial system tick better than the average financial professional. They may not know all the lingo and jargon, but they understand who really runs the system and how corrupt and manipulated it is.

Most people in the financial industry believe the system is less corrupt than it truly is. They tend to think things happen more organically than they do. They look for answers, but the answers they’re given are often too easily accepted. CNBC might say, “It looks like Google is giving back some of its gains today,” and that explanation alone is accepted as sufficient. It couldn’t possibly be market manipulation.

While many conspiracy theorists have a solid understanding of corruption and control, many also hold the attitude that “we need to blow it all up.” I get it—the financial system needs a complete remodel—but we can’t demolish the whole country to achieve that. Who survives a financial Armageddon shouldn’t come down to who stockpiled the most ammunition and survival food.

After the conference, another driver took me back to the airport. He was a legal immigrant from Lebanon. I immediately got personal with him. He told me he loves America, loves Trump, and believes anyone can succeed here if they put in the work. He said illegal immigration is ruining America and agreed with everything Trump was doing to stop it.

After a 30-minute conversation—where I spoke about the golden age coming and positive things happening behind the scenes—we arrived at the airport. When we got out of the car, he was beaming so much I thought he might hug me. It turned into a handshake with a hand on the shoulder as he thanked me for the conversation and wished me a safe trip home.

It’s interesting: the same things I said six to eight years ago that resulted in side looks and severed ties are now being accepted more often with open arms. I haven’t changed. I’m still delivering the same realistic yet positive messaging. People are becoming more open, more willing to listen, and more receptive to explanations for why nothing seems to make sense.

Walking to my terminal, excited to go home to my lovely wife and amazing kids, I passed a white lesbian couple sitting in the waiting area. They were both morbidly obese, with matching pink hair, septum nose rings, and matching green Disneyland sweatshirts.

Immediately, I thought of Juan mentioning how his kids don’t want to go to Disneyland anymore because of all the crazy white people.

It’s obvious we still have more work to do—but we’re getting there.

Human beings are complicated creatures. We have an inherent need to get along with those around us. We create tribes.

We are pretty vulnerable. Because of this, we u…

Between the American Civil War and 1913, the U.S. tariffed their imports. America was so prosperous from this that they didn’t know what to do with their excess money. This is a big reason why America expanded west. But this unbridled prosperity abruptly came to an end in 1913. Followed by the Great Depression less than two decades…
