Join Dark Journalist and his special guest, Former Assistant Housing Secretary, Financial Expert and Coast to Coast AM contributor Catherine Austin Fitts, for an exhilarating overview of the hidden forces of the Black Budget at work in the 2015 economic landscape. Making her fifth appearance on the show, Catherine exposes an emerging economic trend she calls a “Crash-Up” that may be the next move of the financial cabal she refers to as “Mr Global.” After draining most of the money out of the economy with the disastrous housing bubble and the dire crash of 2008, the cabal is ready to make their next move by Crashing Up equity and relentlessly debasing currencies for even more profit!
Catherine, the publisher of The Solari Report, traces the history of worldwide financial manipulation and draws on her personal experience in high-ranking positions on Wall Street and in Government to expose the global game being played out by a tiny elite of people who dominate the committee to run the world.
She also gives out rare insight and wisdom for finding your economic security while battling the covert forces of mind control, entrainment technology, money harvesting, black budget operations and power centralization.
Spellbinding, informative, startling and provocative, this is the interview you’re going to need to navigate 2015!
Excellent speech by George Friedman (below) given at the Chicago Council of Global Affairs. Mr. Friedman reveals many overlooked dynamics which can provide the listener deeper insight into the EU’s chances of success or failure, the rise of nationalism and the key role Germany will play. He underscores a key US strategy to keep Russia and Germany separate and in conflict, fearing a combination of Germany’s financial and technical strength combined with Russia’s vast resources and workforce would threaten the existing US hegemony.
Since Greece cannot pay their bills, Mr. Friedman postulates that Greece will eventually offer to pay some portion perhaps 60% in Greek drachma telling Germany to take it or leave it. They can have a partial payment or have zero and of course Germany will be forced to take this deal to get something and to keep the contagion from spreading to Portugal, Italy and Spain. Owing a lot of money, Mr. Friedman explains actually puts Greece in a more powerful position than Germany since Germany needs the EU to sustain its massive export business which represents 50% of its GDP of which 25% goes to the EU; and Greece at this point cannot pay its debts. He speaks to the long held hatreds and rivalries amongst the member states, the rise of nationalism and Europe’s history of settling their differences with bullets. Explaining the dynamics of Europe, the EU, Greece, Ukraine, Germany, the USA and Russia, he makes some interesting predictions based on his unique analysis.
Despite his apparent acceptance of US war propaganda, you can still benefit from his insightful and informative analysis. Of course you should know I can’t agree with some of the default positions of the sponsor (The Chicago Council on Global Affairs) regarding Russian aggression against Ukraine, and I would presume George Friedman shares this position with the Chicago Council though it was less clear from his speech.
As informed and thoughtful as Friedman is, he seems oblivious to the clandestine history and machinations of the CIA, USAID, Soros, etc. which is designed to destabilize targeted countries like Ukraine through so called ‘Color Revolutions’ using operation Gladio tactics informed by US Geopolitical Policies. He may be very aware that the US is the real culprit in the Ukraine conflict, but holding his cards close to the vest; otherwise, he wouldn’t be invited to speak at places like the Chicago Council. After all, we must blame what the US is doing in Ukraine on Putin to be accepted by the establishment. He seems to agree with the US’s foreign policy overall, but does warn that the US should only occupy nations by force as a last resort and never get into nation-building as in Iraq. Better that the US orchestrate fights and heighten divisions amongst power structures than get stuck in unwinnable, protracted conflicts. Despite my criticisms, and his obvious poor grasp of economics, I found his speech enlightening, brilliant and well worth the view.
Important to note: There is a history to Mr. Friedman’s company, Stratfor, that deserves additional attention, so I have added a link to the Stratfor email leaks below which reveal a murky side to Mr. Friedman and his company; but for now, sit back and enjoy his excellent, though myopic speech. Friedman’s company, Stratfor, had its emails leaked to the public by Jeremy Hammond via Wikileaks. Much condemning information was discovered as a result. Here is just one example:
From Wikipedia: “Some emails reveal that Stratfor had been partnering with Shea Morenz, a former Goldman Sachs director, along with other informants, in order to profit from what could be considered insider trading. Stratfor planned to use the intelligence it gathered in order to profit from trading in several worldwide markets. They created an offshore “share structure” known as “StratCap” during 2011, in order to avoid insider trading allegations. The offshore entity, set to launch operations in 2012, is outwardly independent of Stratfor, but CEO George Friedman told his employees that StratCap is secretly integrated with Stratfor.”
Jeremy Hammond is a political activist and computer hacker from Chicago. He was convicted and sentenced in November 2013 to 10 years in US Federal Prison for hacking the private intelligence firm Stratfor and releasing the leaks through the whistle-blowing website WikiLeaks.
Small excerpt from Mr. Longworth’s summary linked above:“Friedman is concerned with Ukraine, Vladimir Putin’s aggression and the American response to it. But most of his speech dealt with the crisis within the European Union. In this drama, the central player is not Russia but Germany.”

ROOT: Here we go again. The OCF (Obama Crime Family) is in full enforcer mode. Obama must have been up late two weeks ago watching “Godfather Part II” on HBO. That’s the movie where Michael Corleone takes revenge on everyone who has ever wronged him or his family. He kills them all.
Why not prosecute Harry Reid, Hillary Clinton, or Jon Corzine? ROOT For America
Hi I’m Wayne Allyn Root for Personal Liberty. Here we go again. The OCF (Obama Crime Family) is in full enforcer mode. Obama must have been up late two weeks ago watching “Godfather Part II” on HBO. That’s the movie where Michael Corleone takes revenge on everyone who has ever wronged him or his family. He kills them all.
After watching Obama for the past six years it is clear he’s a psychopath and ego-maniacal tyrant who doesn’t care about morality, the law, checks and balances, or the U.S. Constitution.
I’ve written extensively about the many times this administration has intimidated, persecuted and punished its critics. Obama has used the IRS, NSA, FDA, SEC, EPA; every 3-letter government organization possible to destroy his political opposition.
Take me, for example. I spoke out on Fox News, CNBC and on hundreds of conservative talk radio shows about the criminal actions of this socialist tyrant. During a NBC News special covering “a day in the White House,” NBC’s cameras even showed Obama officials panicking in the war room in reaction to my comments on Fox News.
But I’m not just any critic. I am also Obama’s Columbia College classmate, Class of ‘83. I spoke out publicly about how I believe he committed fraud to gain entrance to a college he never in a million years had the grades to get into. And guess what? His college records are sealed. At one point Donald Trump offered $10 million to the charity of Obama’s choice if he’d just release his records. But not a word.
What’s in those records that is so deadly Obama can’t let them see the light of day? You’ll notice Obama released the birth certificate, but never the college records.
You think I caught his attention? Or Valerie Jarrett’s? Suddenly, I was the victim of a vicious, over-the-top IRS attack. Five days after I won a complete victory in tax court, I was hit by a new IRS attack. Five days! Tax attorneys told me they had never heard of this happening in U.S. tax history.
Here’s the thing folks: If someone in the Obama White House made a call to the IRS to destroy Wayne Root… a crime was committed. As in a “go straight to prison” crime.
Well I’ve got news on that front. Government watchdog Judicial Watch demanded my tax files from the IRS and after a 14 month battle; we now have them in our possession. I’ll release that story with scandalous new details direct from my IRS files in the next two weeks. This will be big news. I’ve already been in contact with United States Senate investigators.
But now Obama has gone even further; with the prosecution of Democratic U.S. Senator Robert Menendez.
It’s clear Obama has tried to intimidate a member of his own crime family. Obama is sending a message to his fellow Democrats — “Embarrass me, fight me, I’ll ruin you, too. No one is off limits. I’m the king and you either follow my orders, or prepare to be destroyed.”
What did Senator Menendez of New Jersey do to Obama to deserve prosecution for a minor offense? He had the nerve to publicly disagree with Obama over Iran and Cuba. Just two days before the indictment announcement, Menendez gave a rousing speech at AIPAC condemning Obama’s Iran policy. Next thing you know: INDICTED. Coincidence? Not likely.
What were the charges? Sitting on a donor’s private plane, then doing the bidding of the donor. Are you kidding me? Every Senator and Congressmen in America does that. They’re all bought and paid for.
Hillary Clinton owed $25 million in campaign debt after her 2008 primary loss to Obama. Then she endorsed Obama and it was quietly paid off. Who made the payments? Over $2 billion dollars has been donated to the Clinton Foundation from billionaires, multinational corporations and foreign governments.
You mean there’s no conflict there? Hillary never accepted a plane ride from any of these same corporations or donors who paid off her massive debt, or funded her Clinton Foundation? She never supported a bill after receiving a donation or free plane ride?
How about her new scandal: She deleted over 30,000 emails. She has multiple email accounts. They were insecure. She claims she had the right to determine which emails were private. She made the decision what to delete. This woman was involved in prosecuting Richard Nixon. It’s clear she learned well from watching Nixon. She is the modern day Tricky Dicky. I guarantee you all her emails relating to Benghazi were deleted. The woman is a criminal.
How about Jon Corzine. He lost the New Jersey governor’s race, went back to Wall Street, and proceeded to lose $1.6 billion (with a B) of his clients’ money — money that was supposed to be protected in escrow accounts.
But Corzine was a major bundler for Obama (twice). Lo and behold, the U.S. Justice Dept decided not to prosecute. His life moves forward without a blemish. One critic of Obama gets indicted for free plane flights, but the Obama donor is let off scott-free for stealing $1.6 billion from innocent clients.
How about Harry “Whorehouse” Reid. He could be the dirtiest politician in the U.S. Senate. He entered the U.S. Senate with little or no assets then proceeded to become one of the wealthiest men in the Senate on a $170,000 annual salary. Really? All the while doling out billions (with a B) in government contracts and green energy “investments” that ethics watchdogs call “influence peddling.”
Harry put himself in a position of great power to hand out billions. Somehow he got rich. Do you think the two are connected? But no prosecution or indictment of Harry Reid.
Interestingly, all the money that was funneled by the big Democratic donor to Menendez came through a PAC controlled by…wait for it…Harry Reid. Reid’s PAC collected $700,000 of this “dirty money” then gave $600,000 to Menendez. So why isn’t Harry Reid being indicted?
Senator Menendez poked his finger in Obama’s eye and the government decided to ruin his life. Harry Reid has been Obamas’s water boy for six years, enabling all of Obama’s deadly policies to take effect and blocking all attempts to slow him down. Harry is rewarded with no indictment, even though he was smack dab in the middle of the same alleged crime
Folks this smells…and it smells bad. It’s government intimidation and selective persecution at its finest. It’s a message from the OCF — the Obama Crime Family — to follow the orders of Obama, or face ruin, disgrace, destruction and prison. And you can bet the message was heard loud and clear in Washington.
But the worst one of all is Obama. He is the Chicago crook of all crooks. The Marxist tyrant of all tyrants. The sociopath of all sociopaths. Who will save America from the coming two-year reign of terror?
It’s clear Obama is sending a message. His last two years will be like nothing America has ever seen. The question is, after my IRS attacks, after Menendez’s indictment, who has the courage and chutzpah (besides Benjamin Netanyahu) to stand up to the tyrant?
I’m Wayne Allyn Root for Personal Liberty. See you next week. God bless America.
Power always seeks power. So what are three of the major power centers in America today and how do they work together? Well, you have the Military-Industrial Complex or MIC for short and you have the government which has a monopoly on violence and then you have the central bankers to provide the grease to make everything work. Each of these have their unique talents and roles to play on the Grand Geopolitical Chessboard. There are other power centers, but let’s just focus on these three for now so that we can discover the mechanics of their operation and how they work so well together. Besides killing a lot of people across the globe, the Military-Industrial Complex (MIC) contains several alphabet agencies that operate in secret with secret agendas and secret budgets … hidden under the cloak of the tried and true National Security meme; after all, who would want to put the safety and security of an entire nation at risk for one misplaced word or sentence or for just a little too much transparency, truth or justice?
The National Security ruse works every time for the anesthetized American Lemmings. With national security at stake, you can hide illegal arms transfers, drug and child sex trafficking, barbaric human experimentation, murders, assassinations, torture, etc. All illegal if not for National Security. Now being secret has its benefits. For example, you can gather information on just about anyone and then use it against them if they get out of line. So if you wanted to increase your power you would make sure that whomever was elected to high office could be compromised in some way and if not compromised sufficiently, you could –though your secret operations– add whatever was needed to put the collar around said official’s neck. J. Edgar Hoover was head of the FBI for 37 years and perfected this technique. Others learned from his example. In short, the best person for high office is someone you could blackmail if they got out of line. Now, all power centers need the government because it has the legal monopoly on violence and taxation. The government and the MIC need the Central Bankers to keep them supplied with cash when tax revenues are slim.
PNAC was established in 1997. Section 5, (published a year before 9/11) describes the need for a “New Pearl Harbor” (see below). An abundance of evidence shows that the attacks on 9/11 were an inside job committed by criminal elements within the U.S. Federal Government. On 9/11, they got their “New Pearl Harbor”.
The Project for the New American Century (PNAC) was an American think tank based in Washington, D.C. established in 1997 as a non-profit educational organization founded by William Kristol and Robert Kagan.
“New Pearl Harbor”
September, 2000: Section V of Rebuilding America’s Defenses, entitled “Creating Tomorrow’s Dominant Force”, includes the sentence: “Further, the process of transformation, even if it brings revolutionary change, is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event––like a new Pearl Harbor”
Why the US/NATO are in Ukraine today: The Origins of the Current Neo-Conservative Revolution in US Strategic Thinking, published in the German Law Journal, cited Jochen Bölsche’s view that the goal of the PNAC was world dominance or global hegemony by the United States. According to Bölsche, Rebuilding America’s Defenses was developed by Rumsfeld, Cheney, Wolfowitz and Libby, and is devoted to matters of ‘maintaining US pre-eminence, thwarting rival powers and shaping the global security system according to US interests.
BTW, you can read more about why we are in Ukraine in The Grand Chessboard by Zbigniew Brzezinski which was also conveniently published in 1997 the same year PNAC was established.
“As admitted by the U.S. government, recently declassified documents show that in 1962, the American Joint Chiefs of Staff signed off on a plan to blow up AMERICAN airplanes (using an elaborate plan involving the switching of airplanes), and also to commit terrorist acts on American soil, and then to blame it on the Cubans in order to justify an invasion of Cuba. See the following ABC news report; the official documents; and watch this interview with the former Washington Investigative Producer for ABC’s World News Tonight with Peter Jennings.”
Message to my fellow Americans: You think the Ukrainians don’t know who is responsible? What goes around comes around. The US Press and Pundits are lying out their asses. Don’t be their fool yet again. Aren’t you tired of being lied into war? An estimated 50,000 Ukrainians dead because of a US/NATO orchestrated war. The common, decent citizens of all these countries we have invaded are like insects to be squished in the minds of the planners at the Pentagon. This was all put on the drawing board in the USA back in 1997. It’s a preplanned geopolitical strategy cooked up by the USA aka Murder, Inc. You want to know how to radicalize someone? Kill their wife and their children. I think that just might piss someone off. Stop the killing!
While there was and is plenty of strife to stir up in Ukraine, the US and NATO are knee-deep in fanning the fires, enabling though regime change, NGOs. covert operations, etc. and are therefore the proximate cause of the current violent hostilities. This is foretold in Zbig’s The Grand Chessboard.

Critically important information on the the head of Al Qaeda and who he works for –NATO and the USA– from James Corbett’s excellent podcast… Know Your Terrorists: Ayman Al-Zawahiri
Corbett Report: We are told a certain tale about the story of Ayman Al-Zawahiri, Osama Bin Laden’s right-hand man and the inheritor of the Al Qaeda operation… but we are not told everything. Join us this week on The Corbett Report as we go in search of the real Ayman Al-Zawahiri and uncover some surprising connections.
Wikipedia: Ayman Mohammed Rabie al-Zawahiri (Arabic: أيمن محمد ربيع الظواهري ʾAyman Muḥammad Rabīʿ aẓ-Ẓawāhirī, born June 19, 1951)is the current leader of al-Qaeda and a current or former member and senior official of Islamist organizations which have orchestrated and carried out attacks in North America, Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. In 2012, he called on Muslims to kidnap Western tourists in Muslim countries.
Yes, they lie to us constantly and as they are found out, a decreasing percentage of Americans tune in to watch, but there is a more sinister side: Here are a few things Brian Williams and his pals are NOT telling us …
The War in Ukraine is completely orchestrated by the USA and NATO
Obama removed the democratically elected government in Kiev, Ukraine (Western Ukraine) and installed his own puppet government backed by neo-Nazis
Out of fear of the new Obama regime in Kiev, 90% of the citizens in Crimea (Eastern Ukraine) voted to associate with Russia for protection
Ignoring the Crimean vote and to support Obama’s propaganda, the US News media falsely reports that Russia invaded Crimea
Joe Biden’s crack-head son –Hunter Biden—was appointed to board of major Ukrainian gas company
Ukraine Agreed to a Monsanto “Land Grab” to Get a $17 Billion Loan from the International Monetary Fund (IMF)
IMF said no more money to Kiev until they get the Donbas area under control
Obama’s puppet in Kiev starts bombing cities and villages in the Donbas area (central Ukraine) killing thousands of innocent men, women and children.
Kiev forces start to defect this illegal and criminal genocide orchestrated by Obama and team
Obama puppet starts to shell Donbas area cities with white phosphorus
Complete news blackout by the US Press on the human carnage and atrocities committed by the Obama regime in Kiev.
Some lies and omissions –with the intent to deceive– are more impactful than merely fluffing one’s resume, eh?
