Starting point is 00:00:00 The following program is made possible by the faithful prayers and financial support of listeners just like you. To find out how you can help, visit nothing but the truth, so help us God. I'm Rick Wiles. Great Britain's new chief of the general staff wants the UK Army in top physical shape and mentally prepared to fight Russian soldiers on European soil. The story was published in the Times of London. Doc Burkhart will tell you more about this move towards World War III. And they just keep ramping up every day, ratcheting up just a little bit more. And so now the general, the chief of staff in the UK is sounding this
Starting point is 00:01:07 I guess encouragement to his soldiers to get ready because the UK is going to war. The new chief. It's a battle cry. He issued a battle cry to the army of Great Britain. You're going to fight the Russians. So what has Russia done to the UK? I've refused to obey. That's it. That's it. That's the bottom line. That's the bottom line. They refuse to submit to the current world order. So the new chief of the British Army has braced troops for
Starting point is 00:01:39 what he's calling swift mobilization to Eastern Europe and said it is vital they and their allies are capable of beating Russia in battle. General Sir Patrick Sanders issued a battle cry to all ranks as well as civil servants in the form of a memo saying that the conflict in Ukraine reinforced the Army's core purpose of being ready to fight and win wars on land. There is now a burning imperative, a burning imperative, he says, to forge an army capable of fighting alongside our allies and defeating Russia in battle.
Starting point is 00:02:11 Those are his words. We are the generation that must prepare the army to fight in Europe once again, General Sanders added. I am the first chief of the general staff since 1941 to take command of the army in the shadow of a land war in Europe involving a continental power. Russia's invasion of
Starting point is 00:02:30 Ukraine underlines our core purpose to protect the UK by being ready to fight and win wars on land. And so Rick, he's making it very clear that they intend to fight Russia. Yes. I mean, there's no doubt about what he's saying here.
Starting point is 00:02:47 You've got to be really in denial at this point to not recognize that World War III has started. I mean, this is the chairman of their, like our Joint Chiefs of Staff. Right. Their highest level military leader. And he issued that battle cry today to all the troops, get ready, we're going to fight the Russians.
Starting point is 00:03:10 We're going to fight the Russians on the European continent. It's a war cry. It is an announcement that World War III has commenced. And again, you asked the question, what has Russia done to Great Britain? Britain's not under any kind of national security threat from Russia. Russia's not planning to invade Great Britain. But Russia will take out Great Britain if Great Britain continues to send weapons to
Starting point is 00:03:39 Ukraine to kill Russian soldiers. And if London continues to be a decision-making center for activities in Ukraine, Russia's made it very clear. They will strike at decision-making centers, and that includes capitals like Brussels, London, and Washington. That's right. So, you know, we're repeating ourselves.
Starting point is 00:04:02 We're repeating ourselves here every day. World War III has started. We're repeating ourselves. We're repeating ourselves here every day. World War III has started. And yet so many people don't get it. They don't understand it. They don't see it. They don't believe it. It's happening in real time.
Starting point is 00:04:17 And there's only one place this can go, and that's a nuclear war. Because no one is talking a de-escalation at this point, are they? one place this can go, and that's a nuclear war. Because no one is talking a de-escalation at this point, are they? No, they're talking escalating it. Every day we come out here, Doc, and there's one more story about World War III. You cut off the rail lines one day. You threaten we've got to be in fighting form now to fight the Russians in Eastern Europe. When they say Eastern Europe, the only Eastern European country they're concerned about right
Starting point is 00:04:49 now is Ukraine. That's right. Which, by the way, yesterday or maybe Monday, USA Today newspaper published a story. I don't have the headline here, but this is their words, USA Today newspaper. Ukraine was the queer capital of Eastern Europe until the Russians invaded. Right. And they were boasting of this, that Ukraine is the most homosexual country in Europe, in Eastern Europe. And it was the Russians that messed up everything. They had a great thing going until the Russians showed up. So why is the West angry at Russia?
Starting point is 00:05:35 Does it have something to do with the sex perverts that are running the West? Well, I mean, that's part of that agenda there. I mean, we have to export our perversion to every embassy around the world. The U.S. does. What's one of the things that the Russians are refusing to submit and obey? They have drawn a line and said,
Starting point is 00:05:56 we will not accept Western sexual decadence in our country. We're not going to allow it. And isn't that not the reason we're going to war with Russia? That they have drawn a line? Look, the Russians said they're fighting Nazis that are in Ukraine.
Starting point is 00:06:15 Hitler and the Third Reich were, they were gay. They were homosexuals. Yes. And people don't, if you've never read Pink Swastika, you need to get it. That's right. Pink Swastika, it's been, what, 15 years since I've read it. At least. But the Nazi party
Starting point is 00:06:34 were militant homosexuals. Hitler was not interested in creating a pure white race. You were mentioning that USA Today article. They've got it here for you. There it is. All right, so this was just yesterday that this was published. Ukraine was the queer capital of Eastern Europe. Russia's war changed everything.
Starting point is 00:06:56 Well, it ruined the party, Rick. I saw the other day that they canceled the gay pride parade in Kiev because of the war. Man, those Russians, they just ruin everything, don't they? That's right. So Secretary of State Blinken said the other day that he brings up homosexual rights every time he meets with the Saudis. Just think how perverted we sound as a country.
Starting point is 00:07:22 Well, we did that, what, in Korea here a couple weeks ago. We sent a special envoy to talk about being gay. So diplomats and kings and presidents and prime ministers, when they prepare for the American delegation to show up, privately they're saying they're coming here to pressure us to allow sexual immorality in our country. That's America. No, that's Babylon.
Starting point is 00:07:48 Yes. That's Sodom. Yes, that's Sodom and Gomorrah. And here we are bragging. We're going to fight the Russians. We're going to engage them on the European soil. Well, it's not going to work out too well this time because you're on the wrong side.
Starting point is 00:08:09 The West has become the Nazis. They have become the queer Nazis. Hitler was not forming, creating a pure white Aryan race. He wanted an army of militant homosexual men. That's what he wanted. Dr. Based upon the Greek soldiers. And that's a fact. Yes, that's what he was trying to do. And they terrorized Germany in a short period of time. They unleashed war. World War II is because of Hitler and their sexual immorality. But that's not in the history books because the people that run the world
Starting point is 00:08:52 write the history books. And it's the sex perverts that are running the West. So it's not going to be in the history books. Jens Stoltenberg, the commander of NATO, he declared today that Russia is the number one enemy of NATO. Yes. Now, see, once again, stepping up another notch. This was out of toss, so forgive the way the Russians form headlines here. The new concept of NATO will call the Russian Federation the most significant and direct threat to security. And so that's what's going to be pushed forward in the upcoming NATO summit
Starting point is 00:09:33 that's going to be taking place in Madrid here soon. That NATO summit in Madrid will adopt a new strategic concept that will call Russia the most significant and direct security threat to the alliance. And this was announced on Wednesday by NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg. Strategic concept 2022 will designate Russia as the most significant and direct threat
Starting point is 00:09:57 to NATO security, he said. Another report on the war. We've got a report from oilprice.com, Russian refinery on fire after a kamikaze drone strike. I've got some video. We've not been able to verify that the drone attack that is in this video is the actual Russian refinery. It is circulating on the internet
Starting point is 00:10:26 but it was in guardian news yes so guardian at it um i'm just putting that disclaimer on there i can't absolutely say for certain that it is but we'll show you the video and this is what they claim is the drone attack on the russian oil refinery today. — — — So where did Ukraine get the drone? Got it from one of their NATO partners out there.
Starting point is 00:11:27 We know that. They don't build their own. They don't make their own. They're getting them all shipped in. It might even be in a U.S. drone, for all we know. Which just, again, takes us one step closer to the Russians launching the attack on the country that supplied the weapons. It's coming, folks.
Starting point is 00:11:47 It's absolutely coming. There's nobody in America or in Great Britain or Europe of any responsible position that is calling for peace. There's nobody. There's nobody. There's no calm, cool head saying saying this is getting out of control right we need to bring this down or there's going to be there's going to be a war that will literally end civilization there is absolutely nobody saying this the people that are in power are boasting, we're going to beat the Russians.
Starting point is 00:12:26 We're going to have a war. We're going to destroy them. I'm surprised at Russia's restraint, to be honest with you. You better believe it. Because they've made it clear, once we've made the decision to go down this road, we're going all the way. I personally believe they've already made the decision.
Starting point is 00:12:46 I really do. I believe they've already made the decision. I really do. I believe they've already made the decision. It's the timing now. They know where this is going. It's just, but I believe the internal protocols to launch a nuclear attack on the United States, I believe those protocols
Starting point is 00:13:04 have already been activated. I really believe it's done. The decision is done. That it's already in motion. And the Russians dread doing it. They don't want to do it, but they know their survival is at stake. Their existence as a nation is at stake. Their existence as a nation is at stake. That's what I mean. They know they have to do it at some point. So each of these things are insults to them. They're further aggravation to them. But I think that the Russians have already made the decision that they're going to attack the United States
Starting point is 00:13:45 and Great Britain and Brussels, and it will be done on their time schedule, not the schedule of the U.S. The U.S. can go ahead and do these attacks, these little proxy attacks. The Russians aren't going to respond to it that way when they strike they know they get one opportunity it has to be a knockout punch they will hit us so hard we don't get up off the floor they know they have to do it that way they have to hit us so hard we don't get up off the floor and they're going to do it when they believe the time is advantageous to them. Now, as far as those in the West are concerned, they've got to be thinking this. They've got to have at least taken this into calculation,
Starting point is 00:14:35 or has God blinded their eyes to any kind of response that Russia might have to all of this? Well, as the Bible says, what comes before a fall? Pride. I think the Western leaders are so prideful. They actually believe that they're going to defeat Russia. And their pride blinds them to any possible defeat. And so they're doing things that are actually setting in motion their own destruction,
Starting point is 00:15:01 and they will bring it upon themselves. So we have this a drone attack on a russian refinery but the wall street journal is reporting that russia attacked grain terminals in ukraine but not just any grain terminals north america owned grain terminals so russian force is targeted at least two large north americaowned grain terminals in the Ukrainian port Mykolaiv on Wednesday as part of what Kiev and Western governments say is a campaign to degrade Ukraine's ability to export food. Strikes came as a major Russian oil and gas refiner close to the Ukrainian border was set ablaze after a drone allegedly controlled by Kiev's forces crashed into it Wednesday morning, according to the plant's management. And so for the Russians, it's tit for tat here.
Starting point is 00:15:51 And so Canadian agribusiness Viterra and U.S. grain trader Bunz Limited said that they had a grain terminal hit on Wednesday. Viterra said its terminal was on fire. The company, which is part-owned by commodities giant Glencore PLC, Eric, we've heard those guys before, said there had been no casualties, though one employee is being treated for burns. Bunce said there had been no casualties at its plant,
Starting point is 00:16:15 which has been closed since Russia's invasion began. Well, what do we have? We have food centers burning, like here in America. Right. So we had a Russian oil refinery attacked by a drone. We don't know who the drone belongs to. But then we had a couple of grain terminals hit that were North American owned. So could we make maybe the leaf of logic that maybe the drone was supplied by the US or maybe even transported by the US to Ukraine? It was more likely
Starting point is 00:16:52 probably a Turkish drone because Turkey's been supplying drones to Ukraine but still there is a member of NATO right and so but is that connection there but you're gonna just see this go back and forth, back and forth. You blow up something here, they're going to blow up something here. But what did the Russians blow up? Grain elevators. Right. The storage of food.
Starting point is 00:17:16 Yes. And so if you have no place now to store the grain, what does that do to the food supply? Once again, it breaks another link in the chain. I think that there's going to be severe shortages of wheat and corn going into late 22 and 2023. Those are the two items that I think are going to be in severe shortage, and then everything that's made from it. Just think of all the products, all the food products made from wheat and corn. And those things are just going to disappear. The food processing plants in America are not going to have those products.
Starting point is 00:18:02 Right, because they won't have the raw materials to make those products. So it gets into cereals, pasta, corn chips. I think of snacks and things like that. Look at all the products that have either wheat or corn in them. And corn is, and I know you know this as well, a lot of corn is used as sweetener in a lot of products too.
Starting point is 00:18:26 Corn syrup. So once again, that impacts it. You don't think of the impact that removing one element. Well, that would probably be a good thing. That probably would. A shortage of corn syrup. But it just shows you how these things
Starting point is 00:18:38 are impacted along the way. And if they don't have enough corn syrup, we'll actually taste what their food really tastes like. It won't be hidden by all the sweetness in it. But Rick, are we causing this? Is NATO causing this? Or is God causing the supply chain problems? That's a good question because you've got two things happening.
Starting point is 00:19:00 You have natural forces that are taking place and you also have man-made forces. So droughts and weather related are natural forces. Acts of God. Acts of God. Locusts, all that kind of stuff has happened. But God can also use the affairs of men to bring about His will which is a food shortage. Why? Why a food shortage?
Starting point is 00:19:29 Why would God do that? To get people's attention. You know when they don't have any food? People stop thinking and talking the way that they normally do. Because all of a sudden, reality hits them. They've got to find food. And there's a pattern in the Bible when God brings judgment.
Starting point is 00:19:58 There's drought, there's famine, there's pestilence, and the last stage is war. When none of the other things work, he uses war. The drought, famine, and pestilence, they would impact food supplies more than anything else. Even before they impact people like, you know, just people. The drought affects plants, you know, all the way down through the line there.
Starting point is 00:20:20 Pestilence, you know, locusts, that's everything else that's out there. So it's an industry that before God brings judgment, he disrupts your ability to eat? Yes. Gets your attention very quickly. The next story is Jerusalem Post. Russia warns of non-diplomatic response to the Kaliningrad restrictions. So you can read between the lines what is a non-diplomatic response.
Starting point is 00:20:50 It's anything you can imagine. And so background on the story, of course, is Lithuania has shut down rail traffic between Russia and Kaliningrad. And so this is going to impact them 40, 50 percent at least. Russia is not taking this lightly. The Russian foreign ministry warned that the response to transit restrictions placed by Lithuania on Kaliningrad will be practical and not diplomatic in statements on Wednesday. As for response measures, now possible measures are being worked out in an interdepartmental format, said Maria Zakharova, spokeswoman for the foreign minister at Corn to Toss. On the question of what they will be, will they be exclusively in the diplomatic plane?
Starting point is 00:21:37 The answer is no. They will not be in the diplomatic, but in the practical plane. So what does that mean, Rick? Does that mean that Russia will work to maybe militarily try to reactivate rail lines between Russia and Kaliningrad? The way the U.S. Westerners say it is all options are on the table. That's how we say it here. All options. When a politician says all options are on the table, that means we can do anything, including a military attack. And so what she's saying, and Maria Zakharova works for Sergei Lavrov, the foreign minister, who is the prince of diplomatic language. Nothing ruffles his feathers, but that's not him today.
Starting point is 00:22:36 He's done with it. He's done with being diplomatic. It used to be up until, I would December of last year phrases like our western partners our American friends our American friends they're saying we're done with you there's no more diplomacy we're going to respond to you in practical matters
Starting point is 00:23:01 in practical ways now it's interesting that the diplomatic arm of the Russian government, their State Department, their foreign ministry, which all they do is diplomacy, just said diplomacy's not the answer. Yes, that's right. And that keeps that in mind. Yes, so you have Sergei Lavrov now saying
Starting point is 00:23:21 in the inner circle of the Kremlin meetings, I can't do anything. We're going to have to fight. You can't negotiate your way out of this. You can't talk your way out of this. No diplomacy is working right now. We're going to have to fight. We're going to have to take a hard stand and defend our country. And so when you get Sergei Lavrov in that mood, can you imagine what the hardliners are like? I mean, he's the one who's holding them back all these years, saying, let me work at it. Let me use my smooth tongue and my soft words. Let me try to prevent a war. No. Lavrov's now saying, let's just have the war.
Starting point is 00:24:11 They want the war? Let's give them the war. That's the change that's happened in Russia since January. And we saw it coming. We saw it happen. We not only saw it coming, we created Frankenstein is what we did. That is what we've done. We've created the monster, and now we're going to have to deal with the monster. But the monster may be too big to deal with. So it's going to be interesting to see.
Starting point is 00:24:36 I don't think the Russians are the monsters. I think the U.S. is the monster in this thing. But when the diplomats are saying diplomacy is not the answer, that's a bad, bad sign. Oil price reporting is no surprise. Russia overtakes Saudi Arabia as China's top oil supplier. No surprise there. Russia's not hurting financially. All the U.S. and European sanctions on Russian oil, it hasn't had an impact. China's buying it. Right. I mean, it's at a discount. Why not buy it? They're smart in buying
Starting point is 00:25:13 it. What's interesting, Rick, is they, even though China, I mean, excuse me, Russia is the top supplier to China right now, the imports from Saudi Arabia also increased as well, just a little bit, but they didn't drop. And so that just shows that there is increased demand in China for oil, crude products. And so, and that demand has just continued to increase. And so, so I'm thinking two things here. I don't think demand all of a sudden has started up, but China is buying as much oil as it can at a discounted price and storing it. Yes, yes, obviously.
Starting point is 00:25:53 They're taking advantage of it. Because that's what President Trump did. Remember, he bought oil when it was cheap and then we started producing it, and suddenly we had, by the way, our strategic reserve, President Biden's tapping into it. He's drained it. A billion barrels a day and applauding it.
Starting point is 00:26:09 He's drained it. Right. And then he's going to refill it at the highest prices. Right. You know, master of economy there. I saw this story the other day that the Pentagon has a partnership with SpaceX to build starships. Here goes the space wars.
Starting point is 00:26:30 Right. So this article, this is out of RT. The Transcom partnership with SpaceX, that's Elon Musk's company, was announced by the U.S. military back in October 2020. Officially, the Defense Department was seeking the capability to move the equivalent of a C-17 payload, just under 80 tons, or a single M1 Abrams tank anywhere on the globe in less than an hour.
Starting point is 00:26:56 And so they were imagining a fleet of military starships that could provide an alternative method for logistics delivery in the Pacific or deliver a collection of shelters, vehicles, construction equipment, and other gear anywhere in the globe on short notice so the U.S. Air Force could stand up an air base, for instance. The third imagined scenario, titled Embassy Support, envisions rapid theater direct delivery capability from the U.S. to an embassy in Africa, potentially involving
Starting point is 00:27:29 a quick reaction force. The mere demonstration of such ability could deter non-state actors from aggressive acts toward the U.S., the military said. So translated, Embassy Support means what, Rick? Military. That's right the ability to send US commandos around the world land them in another nation in less than an hour right but they could use they could leave a US military base and be
Starting point is 00:27:59 the same Africa in one hour and surprise the military of that country, the intelligence agencies of that country, that's what the Pentagon is saying. That's what they want, and they're working with SpaceX, which is, most likely it's the Pentagon's company to start with. Right. You know, and Elon Musk gets to, he gets to pretend that he's the billionaire
Starting point is 00:28:23 who runs SpaceX. A Bricks basketbased, excuse me, Bricks basket-based international reserve currency under consideration. Bricks, Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa. We haven't heard much from Bricks here lately, but now they're back in news, especially with all the sanctions on Russia right now. And this might be a possible solution for them in order to be able to trade within the
Starting point is 00:28:54 world economy once again if there was another international reserve currency based on this five-nation group. They've been talking about this for years. Yeah, so we heard a lot about BRICS after the 2008 crash and the Russians and the other members of BRICS, they started having meetings and planning about a new international monetary system, an alternative World Bank, an alternative IMF, an alternative SWIFT bank wire system, and so forth. And of course, an alternative global reserve currency, an alternative to the U.S. dollar.
Starting point is 00:29:37 And so we talked a lot in 2008, 9, 10, 11, 12, in those years about BRICS, because the BRICS nations could see how they had, they could see ahead how the West was going to strangle them using the financial system. Right. I don't know where they, they started to diffuse their focus, but it just seems like the BRICS nations kind of faded away, and we didn't hear much about them during the Trump years. But this U.S., what Putin calls the propaganda blitzkrieg, the sanctions blitzkrieg, where they just blanketed russia with you know
Starting point is 00:30:26 a gazillion sanctions and to de-platform russia what this has done doc is that it has reawakened in the brics nations the urgency to get that system built i have a feeling they're they're probably saying we wasted a lot of good years. We should have had this built years ago. Now the West has done the very thing that we suspected that they would do. If you go back to those early meetings after 2008, they suspected the West would do what they're doing right now.
Starting point is 00:31:04 Somewhere along the line, the BRICS nations dropped the ball, and they didn't finish the alternative system. Now they're back in business. They realize, oh, we see it now. Now we get the game plan. We see how they're going to de-platform nations. And right now it's the BRICS nations that are buying a lot of Russian oil.
Starting point is 00:31:23 India is buying it. It's the second one after China as far as buying oil. South Africa is buying oil from Russia. Even Mr. Bolsonaro, who seemed to be on very friendly terms with Mr. Putin, they even have an oil agreement in place. So they understand oil is a kind of currency even right now, but that there needs to be an alternative for the day where, let's say the West says to India, you know what, if you're going to continue to buy oil from Russia, you're not going to be able to deal with us.
Starting point is 00:31:56 And that's a very real possibility, isn't it? To Brazil, South Africa, all of them. I think the world is going to split into two parts. There are going to be two competing powers, groups of nations. And if you're in one group, you don't have access to the other group. There will be two internets. Yes. I remember us talking about this a couple years ago.
Starting point is 00:32:19 Two everything. Everything will be mirrored. There will be two internets. There will be two sets of rules. Everything will be mirrored. There'll be two internets. There'll be two sets of rules. Everything will be different. And you have to choose which group of nations you're going to be in. And that is taking shape right now. Bitcoin magazine reporting Russian central bank says Bitcoin and crypto payments for international settlement is possible.
Starting point is 00:32:49 And we actually touched on this story yesterday and didn't have a chance to really get into it. Elvira Nebulina, head of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation, recently attended the St. Petersburg Economic Forum where she commented on Russia's use of Bitcoin and other crypto for international trade. And that's from CommerceSant. She said, our position is that cryptocurrency should not be used as a means of calculation within the country as for use in international settlements. If it does not penetrate the Russian financial system,
Starting point is 00:33:15 it is possible, Nabiolina told reporters during the event. So you tie this story in with the previous one. Is it possible that at some point that the BRICS nations with their basket-based reserve currency could be a digital reserve currency? Yes. Sure, we'd make things
Starting point is 00:33:32 a lot easier for them. And you will have two levels of currencies. What she said. Go back and look what she said. One for international and one for domestic. As long as it was not used inside the country,
Starting point is 00:33:48 as long as it did not, what did she say? Penetrate the Russian financial system. Penetrate the financial system. So they don't want it, they don't want cryptocurrencies used inside the country. But they do want it used outside the country because it bypasses the United States dollar. So again, they're seeing that cryptocurrency
Starting point is 00:34:10 gives them a serious alternative to bypass the Western bullies who are telling them what they can do and what they can't do. CNBC, oh no, excuse me, payments. Right. The U Federal Chairman said a central bank digital coin could preserve the US dollar's standing. And we touched on this story as well,
Starting point is 00:34:37 and the reason why we're talking about this is we've got some other information to add to this. A central bank digital currency would help boost the long-term strength of the US dollar, the chairman of the Federal Reserve said on Friday. He said this at his welcoming remarks at the Federal Reserve Board conference in D.C. Jerome Powell said that in light of the rapid growth of stable coins and crypto assets, his organization is studying whether an American CBDC would improve on what he called an already safe and efficient payment system. As the Fed's white paper on this topic notes, a U.S. CBDC could also potentially help maintain the dollar's international standing.
Starting point is 00:35:15 As we consider feedback from the paper, we'll be thinking not just about the current state of the world, but also how the global financial system might evolve over the next five or ten years. Rick, do you think they can actually forecast what the financial system is going to be like in the next five or ten years, or have they already got it planned out? They already have it planned out. But I also believe cryptocurrency is a wrinkle in their plan. They're trying to figure out how they get control of it. And the whole purpose of cryptocurrency is to get around their control. I mean, the people that created the various cryptocurrency altcoins, they did it out of their frustration of the central banks.
Starting point is 00:36:03 Right. I mean, it was a brilliant idea. But now the banksters are trying to figure out how do we get control of it. We can't let the people have their own money system. They have to use our money system. Think how crazy that is. Well, it's just greed. Yes.
Starting point is 00:36:20 It's just greed. It's greed and power. And they lose their power if they lose control of the money. That's what it's about. You said something interesting the other day that really got me thinking that you could see within several years that there would be no local banks. Yes. Because of the changes taking place within digital currency.
Starting point is 00:36:43 That you would have no reason to go to a local bank, a drive-thru. If the U.S. Federal Reserve issues its own CBDC, Central Bank Digital Coin, and they simply would just declare that you don't need a bank account because there's no money. There's no paper money now.
Starting point is 00:37:04 Right. And the Federal Reserve... The only bank account money now. Right. And the Federal Reserve. The only bank account will be your number. At the Federal Reserve. Your unique identifying number. All right. Remember what we heard at Davos? Yes.
Starting point is 00:37:18 Every human will be given a unique identifying number. That's the system that's being put in place. Of course, the Bible knew about this a long time ago. It's called the mark of the beast. But they're putting the system in place, and so you could see the Federal Reserve eliminate banks. The Barney Frank Act that was passed after the 2008 crisis
Starting point is 00:37:51 made the Federal Reserve the governing power, the governing authority over all US banks and credit unions in this country. It was a horrible decision. We made the Federal Reserve the bank. The central bank. We made the Federal Reserve, not the Central, we made them the bank regulator. Now all banks are regulated
Starting point is 00:38:10 by the Federal Reserve. All credit unions are regulated by the Federal Reserve. So in essence, it's not a central bank, it is the bank now. It is. And so they could just eliminate. What if they just dissolved all the bank charters?
Starting point is 00:38:27 And they could very well do that. They are the ones who issue the charters. So why can't they just dissolve them? So if there was a period of time where they transitioned to a digital currency and they said you can turn in your cash and everything, after that period of time, why would you need to go to the bank?
Starting point is 00:38:43 To deposit cash, take out cash? Cash doesn't exist. That's right. You know, you wouldn't make a drop off of cash at the end of the night shift from the local fast food place or anything like that. There would be no cash to drop off. That's right. Some would say that would be a good thing. But what that also means, it means control over every aspect of your life as well.
Starting point is 00:39:05 That's right. So there's also some of the negative sides of that as we go through these growing pains shifting to a digital currency economy. This is from CNBC. Bitcoin could plunge even further to a low of $13,000, one strategist warns. He says that the crypto world is on edge
Starting point is 00:39:25 as investors grapple with the impact of higher interest rates and liquidity issues within the industry, major industry players. This is right in line with what my son Jeremy told me about two weeks ago, that he was expecting Bitcoin to drop to somewhere between $12,000 to $15,000. And what Jeremy told me was, his advice was, Dad, don't purchase any more cryptocurrency until
Starting point is 00:39:58 three things happen. Bitcoin has fallen 80%. Which we'd put it in that range. Three things happened. Bitcoin has fallen 80%. Which we'd put in that range. Yes. Ethereum has fallen 90%. And it's approaching that now. And altcoins fall 95%. And he said when you get to that marker, that's the time to buy.
Starting point is 00:40:23 And when it hits that, it may only last for a couple hours. You have to be prepared to purchase then. And those who get back into the market at that moment, when the prices are literally crawling on the seafloor, it can't go any farther, that's it. When you get into the market at that point and then just hold your position for four years,
Starting point is 00:40:48 there will be enormous gains in cryptocurrency because it's basically a four year cycle. So when I saw that today on CNBC that this financial analyst said they're expecting it to go to 13,000. Jeremy's right. That's where this is going. Somewhere between 12,000 and 15,000. We got a short clip from CNBC.
Starting point is 00:41:12 Let's watch it. I went into the chat forums of the crypto advocates who were seeing extreme volatility in their Bitcoin and other things. It's a strange place mentally is all I can say. And people perhaps need to just think about their positions and the rest of their life as two separate things. But what do we think about it? You've already alluded to the leverage in this arena as well. Is crypto a metaphor for anything other than greed? I think it's a metaphor for liquidity, Steve. You know, what we've seen is that in a world where liquidity is plentiful, you know, the Bitcoins of this world do well. You know, what we've seen is that in a world where liquidity is plentiful,
Starting point is 00:41:46 you know, the bitcoins of this world do well, you know, when that liquidity is taken away, and that's what the central banks are doing at the moment, you know, then you see those markets come under extreme pressure. You know, we always make the point that bubbles, and, you know, we define those as anything that goes exponential on a log scale, which, you know, Bitcoin did and other cryptocurrencies did. You know, they tend to lose 80 percent of their value. You know, that would take you back actually to about 13,000, which is one of the key support areas for Bitcoin. So, you know, we would still be selling, you know, these kind of cryptocurrencies into this environment. And, you know, it really is a liquidity play what we found is that it's neither a currency nor a commodity
Starting point is 00:42:29 and certainly not a store of value so when he talks about liquidity he's talking about the amount of cash that's floating out in the universe there yes so what did we do here over the past several years we pumped trillions of dollars into the economy you know people as well as I do that when they got that $2,000 check back, when was it? It seems like 10 years ago. It was only a couple years ago.
Starting point is 00:42:52 Whenever I got those $2,000 checks from the government, what did a lot of people do with them? A lot of people bought crypto. Yes, they did. A lot of people did. Yes. Because they really didn't need the money. That Yes. Because they really didn't need the money. That was it.
Starting point is 00:43:06 They really didn't need the money. But they had to spend it on something. And so right then, crypto was hot. A lot of people invested in that. Some people did well. But now you've got a lot of these people that have invested more and more. Now we're looking at 13, 12. That's right it
Starting point is 00:43:25 could go and again this is not the time to buy yet you got to wait just be patient be patient dog just wait wait until those numbers get down to what we said 80% drop for Bitcoin 90% drop for a theory of 95% drop for Ethereum, 95% drop for altcoins. That would put Ethereum, what, down around $500? Right. Okay? Set your buy orders. Have your account funded on the exchange.
Starting point is 00:43:59 I use Coinbase and Kraken. I prefer Kraken. And you have to have your account funded, which means you have to have money in your exchange account. Then you set your buy limits, because you could have this happen while you're asleep. And if you have set your account to purchase X many etheriums or X many Solano's whatever it is that you're buying when it reaches a particular
Starting point is 00:44:33 price point if you have if you have money in your account it's funded right and during the middle of the night it drops to that price and it's only there for five minutes and you don't know it because you're sleeping. Your account will purchase it for you. And you've hit the jackpot in terms of buying at the cheapest price. And then just hold on to it for the next four years. And don't trade. Don't buy a bunch of other stuff.
Starting point is 00:45:04 That's the Las four years. And don't trade. Don't buy a bunch of other stuff. That's the Las Vegas mentality. You know, for the next four years, well, I'm going to buy this altcoin, and I heard a tip about this altcoin, and I'm going to sell it. That's guaranteed you're going to lose money. It's hit and miss. Just make your purchase. Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solano are the three big ones.
Starting point is 00:45:25 That's it. And they're going to remain the three big ones. Put your money there and just wait. Just wait. Don't touch it for four years. And once again, this isn't a financial show or anything like that. It's just two guys talking. I'm just giving you advice.
Starting point is 00:45:43 I'm not talking to anybody out here. I'm just giving it to Doc and people who are listening in on what I'm saying. Well, let's just say I've listened to advice in the past and have done okay. And look, I'm a novice at this. I listen to my son. It's so much. I'll tell you how much confidence I have in him now. And I think I'm probably just going to give him access to my account and just say, just do it.
Starting point is 00:46:09 I don't even, I trust him. I trust his insight and his decision-making abilities in this. He does well, right? The only time I've done well is when I've just done what he said. Right. So then why I should just let him handle his pops account and just let him do it because he's making the right decisions. Okay. And I'm all I've repeated to you is the little bit that I've retained in my mind of hearing him talk about what he's doing. So Jeremy thinks that the bottom is going to hit somewhere between July, what did I think, first, July 1st and the 4th.
Starting point is 00:47:02 Over the holiday weekend? Yeah, maybe he said July 1st to the 8th. I've got to go back and look at my notes. But he thinks we're about a week away from the absolute bottom. And then again, it will come. It'll happen so fast. And it'll be over quickly. It'll linger.
Starting point is 00:47:21 It'll linger in the basement for a long, long time, but it won't be at the very bottom. I mean... It's not going to go to zero. Right. Bitcoin may, instead of being down 80%, it may be down 70%, okay? Well, you've lost that spread. It's that spread right there.
Starting point is 00:47:43 You've got to get it at the very bottom. There's where wealth is made over the next four years. But again, that's up for you to decide whether you want to do this. Do your own research and do a lot of reading and talk to people that actually know what they're doing. So people that are making money. How about that? Doc, another story I saw on CNBC today is that the world's largest manufacturer,
Starting point is 00:48:09 Truck Daimler, says that they're facing enormous supply chain pressures. Of course, this impacts the value of all vehicles out there, including used vehicles. Daimler Truck CEO told CNBC on Wednesday that shortages of parts are slowing the production of thousands of its vehicles. Dymler Truck CEO told CNBC on Wednesday that shortages of parts are slowing the production of thousands of its vehicles. Supply chain disruptions are still rippling
Starting point is 00:48:30 across the globe when the head of the world's largest truck maker has warned that those part shortages are slowing down production of those trucks. Dymler Truck CEO Martin Daum told CNBC on Wednesday that the current supply chain squeeze is among the worst he's seen in his more than 25-year career, resulting in major bottlenecks across the company's suite of brands. He says, we are facing enormous pressure on the supply chain, said Dahm, whose trucks are used for other vital industries such as logistics and construction. I would say it's one of the worst years ever in my long career in trucking, where we sometimes have to touch a truck three, four times
Starting point is 00:49:09 to add the missing parts, he added. So, but Dom said the shortages of other parts are also continuing to slow the production of thousands of trucks across its international network of factories. He said, we have in a couple of factories more than 10,000 trucks where one or two parts, just one or two parts are missing,
Starting point is 00:49:27 and we desperately search the world for those parts. Think about it. 10,000 brand new trucks. That can't be finished. That they can't finish and sell them. Just think of the financial stress of having that inventory. Right. And you can't move the product
Starting point is 00:49:46 because you're missing one or two parts. Oh, you want a truck with a door handle? Oh, you wanted a windshield? Yeah, it's not like these houses they're building in Florida without garage doors
Starting point is 00:49:59 and gutters and stuff and say, well, we'll catch up later. No, you can't sell a truck if it doesn't have a steering wheel. Oh, you wanted, yeah, we'll catch up later. No, you can't sell a truck if it doesn't have a steering wheel. Oh, you want to, yeah, a brake pedal. Okay, well, just wait. We'll ship the brake pedal to you later when it comes in.
Starting point is 00:50:12 No, they can't sell the trucks. And if they're having problems getting parts, imagine what the used part industry is dealing with right now. That they're having those issues as well. The advanced auto parts and O'Reilly's and all these others. You're going to see a ripple effect go across the entire economy. What will that do? Vehicle prices will soar.
Starting point is 00:50:35 Used prices will soar as a result too because there will be restricted demand. Yes. Although prices for used vehicles seem to be coming down right now. And I saw that the used trucks are coming down, large trucks, rigs are coming down right now. Maybe because people are needing cash. Yes. And that's another indicator too. Watch in your town for, you know, everybody has a car for sale here and there and everywhere, right? Okay.
Starting point is 00:51:07 So watch when you see a spike in cars being sold like alongside the road. Because people are generating cash. They need cash. That happened at the beginning of the pandemic, remember? There was that window about three months. You drive down streets in Vero, you count five, six, seven cars for sale on the way to work. After things started picking up again, you didn't see that. Now, right out here, not too far from our office, there are three vehicles for sale less than a block from here along the road. And
Starting point is 00:51:37 that's another indicator that there's some sort of gap going on. Maybe it's catch up. I don't know what it is that's going on out there, but there are people that are short on cash right now. Well, Doc, what I have seen is in housing, I used to monitor the number of homes in this area that were foreclosed. Right. Okay. so I subscribe to a realty track. Right. I should, you know, I don't have time. In my dreams, you know, I want to flip houses, all right? I just don't have time, all right? But in another life, I would flip houses, okay?
Starting point is 00:52:24 So, you know, I look at realty track and just monitor the number of homes that are foreclosed. Well, if you were here in Florida, particularly 2008 to 2012, maybe even 2013, banks were giving away homes. I mean, giving them away. They couldn't sell them. This ministry, we purchased a brand new office building for 13 cents on the dollar. It was a brand new office building. When we moved to Vero Beach in 2011, I offered, I'll tell you what it was. The bank, it was a brand new facility, and 11,000 square foot building, unused, and the note on the bank, the bank loan was $2.4 million. And this ministry, we offered $377,000 for the building,
Starting point is 00:53:24 and they said yes. Right. Oh my God, I just bought a building. All right? But we sold it years later. This is how we bought this place. This is how we funded. People are like, well, how did Rick get the money
Starting point is 00:53:38 to build this big TV studio and everything? Smart investments, okay? I sold off that building, and we used the money to finance this building. And other projects too. Okay, so where I'm going with this is that, I don't know what point, Doc, you know, the inventory of foreclosed homes, you know, it dried up.
Starting point is 00:54:00 The banks sold off the houses. Or they pulled them off. Or they pulled them off. Into the black foreclosure. Right, but they just weren't there. There was just, you just, I would go check, and one or two houses in a whole county, like, okay, that's over.
Starting point is 00:54:13 That was an experience of a lifetime to see that many homes foreclosed. About a month ago, I just decided, I'm going to check and just see how many foreclosed homes are in this market. I was stunned to see that it had returned to what I looked, to me, it looked like the 2008, 2011 level. You were seeing a spike in foreclosures? They were pre-foreclosures. What's a pre-foreclosure? The bank has notified the homeowner,
Starting point is 00:54:46 you're very close to a formal foreclosure where we actually file the papers and we take the house from you. So what I've seen in this area is that there is a massive spike in people having trouble making their mortgage payments. They're missing a payment here and a payment there. Yes.
Starting point is 00:55:06 And so they've received the warning letter from the bank. You're on the edge of being foreclosed. You've got so many days to catch up your payments. That is a sign that people are having trouble right now. Why? Because of the Biden inflation. Yes. They can't keep their gasoline tanks full. They're having trouble buying food. Look at what the average family is paying. Well, if they're living
Starting point is 00:55:34 right on the edge and, you know, they're just making it paycheck to paycheck week after week and suddenly gasoline doubles on them right where are they where are they getting the money where are they getting the extra money where they're falling behind on payments that's the sign of what biden has done to the american economy to the middle class they've destroyed the middle class and we're seeing foreclosures again right now at least in this area i don't i have not looked in other states. I have not looked. But the thing, Doc, is that Florida is red hot for real estate at the same time.
Starting point is 00:56:14 There are people moving to Florida. So they're coming here and buying up houses, but the Floridians who are already here are having trouble holding on to their houses. Right. It's a strange situation here. Yeah. It's a sign that the economy is in serious trouble right now. Your faith in God is what you need.
Starting point is 00:56:34 Amen. It will get you through this. If you've never been through a financial storm in your lifetime, take it from this old guy. Put your faith in God and become a giver. Give generously to the work of the lord you will go through the storm not only will you go through it without any hair being sins singed off the back of your neck from the fire of the economy but you will go through it blessed and you'll come out on top you'll be better off at the end of the financial crisis than you were going into it. I'm telling you, I've seen God do this many times in people's
Starting point is 00:57:11 lives. Joe Biden gave a cryptic warning that there's going to be a second pandemic as though maybe Tony Fauci told him something. We've got a video clip of Mr. Biden making the remark. President, are you confident you have, I know you're looking for more money from Congress for this vaccine campaign and for COVID funding going into the fall. How much of the supply of vaccines for these small children is there? And how many of the nation's kids will you be able to get vaccinated before you need more money from Congress?
Starting point is 00:57:58 Well, we'll get through at least this year. We do need more money, but we don't just need more money for vaccines for children eventually. We need more money, but we don't just need more money for vaccines for children. Eventually, we need more money to plan for the second pandemic. There's going to be another pandemic. We have to think ahead. There's going to be another pandemic, he said. Did Bill Gates call him and give him a heads up? Did Dr. Fauci deliver a letter and say, well, here's the checklist for the next pandemic?
Starting point is 00:58:26 Well, Fauci said at the beginning of the Trump administration, there's going to be a pandemic. Yes. And now you have Joe Biden saying there's going to be a second pandemic. See, they gave us a break. Yeah, that's right. We were in a ceasefire. That's what they were calling it, a ceasefire. Now, the pandemic most likely is not going to start until after the election.
Starting point is 00:58:45 They're already in trouble. The last thing they need right now is more trouble. Well you have been seeing stories lately internationally. COVID cases are up in France and Israel. And polio in London. Yes. I was wondering if we were going to do that today. Polio. When's the last time you had any issues with polio anywhere? They found polio samples in the sewage of London. So they're trying to explain it.
Starting point is 00:59:14 They don't know what's happened. But there's a health alert in London right now. I want to do some politics real fast, some political news. Florida Senator Rick Scott has declined to endorse Mitch McConnell for another term as Republican majority leader. Right. So rumors have been swirling that former President Donald Trump has been courting Scott behind the scenes to mount a challenge against Speaker McConnell. Or Majority Leader. Majority Leader McConnell, hopefully at some point there. But on the other side of the story here,
Starting point is 00:59:57 The Hill is reporting that Trump says that he hasn't endorsed McCarthy for Speaker coming up. He endorsed him for re-election to his House seat. Right. But then he clarified it and he said, but that doesn't mean I'm endorsing him to be the Speaker of the House. So what's Mr. Trump doing here, Rick? He's putting into place the people that he wants to run the Republican Party. So far in the Republican primaries this year, his batting average is pretty good.
Starting point is 01:00:30 It's doing pretty good. He's had a few misses, but not many. Yeah, so most of the candidates that he has endorsed have won the Republican primaries. So he's doing quite well. And so we now have a hint that there's going to be a challenge to Mitch McConnell you know I mean Mr. McConnell should step aside he's he's had that role for a long long time he's in his 80s it's time to let go just step aside okay Rick Scott of Florida it would make an interesting challenge Mitch McConnell is a wise enough politician.
Starting point is 01:01:07 He'll count the votes. If he realizes he's going to have a hard time holding on to it, he'll retire. He'll just bow out. So you could have a Republican Senate Majority Leader Rick Scott of Florida, which would be great for the state of Florida if we have that. Now, on House Speaker, we proposed something years ago after the 2020 election,
Starting point is 01:01:35 so it's the last two years. That the House Speaker doesn't have to be a member of Congress. That's it. You don't have to be an elected member of the House of Representatives to be the Speaker of the House. And we proposed two years ago
Starting point is 01:01:52 that Donald Trump could become the Speaker of the House after the 2022 elections. That is a possibility. Can you imagine him replacing Nancy Pelosi? And then after Biden's State of the Union speech, he'll tear it up like Nancy tore up his speech and did her weird clapping. I would hope he's better than that. But there is a possibility he could run, not run, but be put in the Speaker's position by the House Republicans if they take control
Starting point is 01:02:27 of the House in November, which obviously right now looks like a slam dunk. That's a possibility. Or he's going to find an alternative to Kevin McCarthy. McCarthy's in trouble with the Trump loyalists. They don't trust him. They don't believe he's loyal to Donald Trump. And he looks more like a rhino to them. And so, you know, he's not guaranteed that he's going to be the speaker. Another story that I found that was interesting today was U.S. Senator Kevin Cramer issued a statement. He's a senator in North Dakota. He issued a statement that he may lose his hands. Right.
Starting point is 01:03:11 His right hand may be amputated because of some undisclosed injury that happened at his house over the weekend. Right. He doesn't go into detail about what happened other than than it was a serious injury, which required surgery. And then he goes on to talk about amputation. He says he's alert and in good spirits, and although I'm missing this week of votes and hearings, I'm monitoring Senate business. I plan to return to Washington after the July 4th holiday and expect to be doing a lot of left-handed fist bumps. Okay, but, Doc, if you were a senator and you injured your hand, or you stuck your hand in a lawnmower, okay,
Starting point is 01:03:51 or you cut your fingers off with a chainsaw, wouldn't you just say, I was cutting lumber? Right. And the chainsaw slipped, and I cut three of my fingers off. Right. That's all, you know, but this is kind of cryptic, isn't it? It is. It's like I had an injury, but I'm not going to tell you what it is. Right. If I came into work and I'm limping and my leg's in a cast and I'm on crutches and
Starting point is 01:04:16 you ask me, Rick, what happened? Well, I had a serious injury at the house over the weekend. Right. Well, what happened to you? It was serious and it was an injury. They may cut my leg off. I would say well what happened? Remember last year Mitch McConnell had the dark blue hands? Yeah blue hands. McConnell from the bluegrass state. It looked like somebody stepped on his hands. Stomped on them. And there was no explanation. Maybe he had a serious injury too. But they never did tell us why his hands were blue. I see this happening over and over and over in Washington. Mysterious injuries like the Supreme Court Chief Justice who maybe fell off his bike. He was found on a pavement with blood coming out of his head
Starting point is 01:05:08 and no explanation. Isn't that weird? Yeah, I think it's weird. But who knows what goes on D.C. Well, I'll tell you, you want to know how bad the economy is right now? The price of having your photograph taken with Vice President
Starting point is 01:05:25 Kamala Harris is plunging. It was $15,000. It is now down to $5,000. So inflation is obviously not impacting that market. No, it's deflation. This is one place where the Biden economy is working in the opposite direction. The price of getting your photograph with Vice President Harris has dropped from 15 grand to 5,000. And the Democrats are having trouble finding anybody who will even pay the 5,000 to be seen standing next to her. What are you going to do with that photograph? Well, we want to end the program with a humorous video. I don't know the name of this woman. I couldn't find it. Somebody sent the video to me and there was no name to the video. But whoever she is, she's hilarious in
Starting point is 01:06:19 her impersonation of Vice President Kamala Harris. We'll let you see this and then we'll just close out and we'll see you tomorrow. If you wake up, okay, and don't want to smile, if it takes a little while, okay, listen, open your eyes, okay? And look at the day, okay? You gotta look at the day. You do. And listen, you'll see things in a different way, okay? Um, listen, full stop.
Starting point is 01:07:02 Don't stop thinking about tomorrow. Okay? Don't stop because it'll soon be here. Okay? It'll soon be here. Yeah. It'll be here better than before. Okay?
Starting point is 01:07:19 Yesterday is gone. Yesterday is gone. Okay? It's gone. And listen, full stop. It is gone okay it's gone and listen full stop it is gone yeah the preceding program was made possible by the faithful prayers and financial support of listeners just like you.
