The assault on your wallet isn’t coming from petty thieves—it’s orchestrated by global banking cartels wielding digital chains. I’ve uncovered how unelected central bankers are plotting to strip away our financial freedom through programmable money, while patriots in power are fighting back with bold countermoves.

Trump’s 2025 Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Executive Order as a nationalist bulwark—bolstering U.S. holdings to $88B+ with seized $15B Bitcoin from scams, crushing CBDC threats, and fueling freedom money!

On March 7, 2025, President Trump took unprecedented action to secure America’s financial sovereignty by signing an Executive Order establishing a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve[1]. This patriotic masterstroke treats bitcoin as a true reserve asset—not to be sold but preserved as a national treasure. Most importantly, the government won’t burden taxpayers with acquisition costs[2]. Instead, the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve will be capitalized with bitcoin already owned by the Treasury Department from criminal and civil asset forfeitures[1].

Why is this move so brilliant? Because Bitcoin has never been hacked and has a permanently capped supply of just 21 million coins[2]. Unlike the Fed’s endless money printing, Bitcoin’s scarcity makes it digital gold—a hedge against globalist inflation schemes.

Consequently, there’s a strategic advantage to America being among the first nations to create such a reserve[2]. The Executive Order also establishes a U.S. Digital Asset Stockpile for other cryptocurrencies seized through forfeitures[1]. This finally resolves the disjointed handling of seized digital assets across federal agencies[1].

Furthermore, premature sales of government-owned Bitcoin have already cost U.S. taxpayers over $17 billion[1]! Under Trump’s order, we’ll no longer squander these valuable assets—they’ll be held as a bulwark against financial tyranny.

The Rothschild-Balfour betrayal and “bankers’ wars” echo in 2025’s Tether expansions under the GENIUS Act—CIA shadows lurking in stablecoins.

The globalists’ playbook hasn’t changed since the infamous 1917 Balfour Declaration—a textbook case of imperial betrayal. When Lord Balfour sent his fateful letter to Lord Walter Rothschild, it set in motion one of history’s most significant land thefts[3]. Essentially, the British Empire promised Palestine to the Zionist movement while simultaneously promising the Arabs independence in those same lands[4].

This duplicity was no accident—it was calculated imperial cunning mixed with religious zeal[5]. As eminent British historian Sir Martin Gilbert noted, political force was the primary motivation[5]. The betrayal perfectly illustrates how empires and superpowers manipulate financial systems to control nations.

Fast forward to 2025, and we see the same pattern with Tether’s expansion under the GENIUS Act. In September 2025, Tether unveiled USAT, a new stablecoin specifically designed for the U.S. market[6]. The company, now based in El Salvador, claims this move strengthens its U.S. presence thanks to President Trump’s pro-crypto stance[7].

Notably, Tether has become the seventh largest buyer of U.S. Treasury bills, purchasing over $33.10 billion in 2024 alone[7]. This massive Treasury acquisition mirrors how the bankers’ wars operate—creating debt instruments that enslave nations while appearing to support them.

Bo Hines, Tether’s U.S. Operations Lead and former Executive Director of the White House’s Digital Asset Advisory Committee, insists that both USDT and USAT will comply with the GENIUS Act’s regulations[6]. However, given Tether’s history of commingling client and corporate funds (as revealed in its 2021 settlement with the New York Attorney General)[7], can we really trust this operation?

Urgent question: Will we let programmable digital dollars enslave us, or rise for Constitutional sound money?

The greatest threat to American liberty today is the Federal Reserve’s push for Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs). Make no mistake—these are not simply “digital versions” of our current dollars. They are programmable, traceable, trackable, and taxable instruments of control[8].

With CBDCs, bureaucrats gain terrifying powers:

  • They can limit your savings or place a “shelf-life” on money you earn[8]
  • They can earmark certain dollars only for specific purchases, dictating how much of your income can be spent on food[8]
  • They can confiscate unspent digital dollars to prevent “hoarding” [8]
  • They can trace and tax every transaction, no matter how small[8]
  • They can give certain businesses “preferred status” while blocking transactions with others[8]

Even Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell admits, “We would not want a world in which the government sees, in real time, every money transfer that anyone makes with a CBDC” [9]. Yet that’s precisely what CBDCs would enable!

As Natalie Smolenski of the Bitcoin Policy Institute warns, “Once a door to surveillance is opened, it is virtually impossible to close” [10]. Representative Tom Emmer correctly identifies that CBDCs would “centralize Americans’ financial information, leaving it vulnerable to attack” and could be “used as a surveillance tool that Americans should never tolerate from their own government” [10].

Above all, a CBDC would place the federal government at the center of all economic activity[9]. This directly contradicts the Constitution’s vision of sound money. Article I, Section 10 explicitly states that no state shall “make anything but gold and silver coin a tender in payment of debts”—yet here we are, facing digital chains of control.

In contrast, privately issued stablecoins currently facilitate billions in dollar-based transactions daily, with market adoption being completely voluntary[9]. With proper oversight, these stablecoins strengthen the dollar’s international utility without requiring government monopoly over digital currency[9].

The battle lines are drawn. Will we submit to programmable slavery through CBDCs, or will we demand Constitutional sound money? I say we follow Trump’s lead—embrace Bitcoin’s freedom while rejecting the Fed’s digital control grid. The time to act is now!

Historical Tyranny: The Bankers’ Plot Against Freedom

Image Source: The Economist

The roots of today’s banking tyranny run deep throughout our American story. Banking cartels have waged a continuous war against our nation’s sovereignty, beginning centuries before digital chains emerged.

From the Balfour Declaration’s 1917 theft of Palestinian riches for Rothschild elites to the Bank of England’s Currency Act sparking our Revolution, Benjamin Franklin’s warning rings true.

The infamous Balfour Declaration of November 2, 1917, embodied banking elite manipulation at its most brazen. This public statement, addressed directly to banking titan Lionel Walter Rothschild, pledged British support for establishing “a national home for the Jewish people” in Palestine[11]. At that moment, Jews constituted less than 10% of Palestine’s population. This wasn’t mere generosity—it was calculated theft orchestrated by financial elites.

Make no mistake: the declaration was nothing less than imperial theft, what Edward Said called “made by a European power about a non-European territory in flat disregard of both the presence and wishes of the native majority resident in that territory” [11]. Through British facilitation, the Jewish population swelled from 9% to nearly 27% between 1922 and 1935[11].

This Rothschild land grab mirrors an earlier financial assault on America. The Bank of England’s Currency Act of 1764 eliminated colonial paper money, forcing Americans toward the pound sterling system[12]. This tyrannical legislation prohibited American colonies from creating or issuing paper bills, destroying their monetary independence[12]. As one historian bluntly stated, this was designed “to force the Americans to borrow their money from the Bank of England and pay interest, which they were not used to “[13].

Benjamin Franklin, patriot and financial genius, understood this threat perfectly. He warned that such foreign banking control would subjugate American freedom, drain our wealth, and reduce colonists to debt slaves. His warning echoes through centuries: banking tyranny left unchecked spells death for liberty.

Post-Revolution betrayal: First and Second U.S. Banks favoring foreign vipers, igniting the War of 1812

Following our hard-won independence, foreign banking interests immediately worked to reestablish control. The First Bank of the United States, established in 1791, became a Trojan horse for overseas financial interests. Many of its stockholders were foreign investors—particularly British subjects—proving the institution served foreign rather than American interests[14].

The bank operated until 1811, when patriotic Americans defeated attempts to renew its charter. Banking interests immediately retaliated. Without coincidence, the War of 1812 erupted shortly thereafter, as Britain sought to regain control over its former colony and its financial system.

Opportunistic bankers used wartime chaos to push for a Second Bank in 1816, capitalizing it at $35 million—more than triple the First Bank’s $10 million[15]. Its extensive branch network gave the appearance of aiding westward expansion, yet primarily enriched a small clique of investors[15]. Underneath patriotic rhetoric lay the same old scheme: putting “too much power in the hands of too few private citizens” [15].

This financial weapon operated outside congressional and presidential oversight, lacking effective regulation. It became, as future president Andrew Jackson observed, “too far outside the jurisdiction of Congress, the president, and voters” [15]. Nicholas Biddle, the Second Bank’s president, exemplified this corruption—making loans to friends while denying them to those less connected[15].

Heroes of Liberty: Andrew Jackson slays the bank beast (surviving assassination), Lincoln’s value-based currency thwarted by 1865 murder, birthing the Fed’s 1913 debt enslavement and income tax tyranny.

Thankfully, America has produced heroes willing to battle these banking vipers. President Andrew Jackson fought relentlessly against the Second Bank, declaring it served “the interests of the wealthy, not to meet the nation’s financial needs “[15]. His opposition was both personal and principled—Jackson distrusted paper money after being burned in a land deal. He believed banks concentrated power dangerously[15].

The banking cartel’s desperation became evident on January 30, 1835, when unemployed house painter Richard Lawrence attempted to assassinate Jackson outside the U.S. Capitol[16]. Providence intervened—both of Lawrence’s pistols misfired[16]. The 67-year-old president then beat his would-be assassin with his walking cane[16]. Jackson’s victory was complete when he successfully withdrew federal deposits from the Second Bank, placing them in state banks[15].

Yet the bankers never ceased their schemes. During the Civil War, Abraham Lincoln defied the banking establishment by issuing debt-free “Greenbacks” through the 1862 Legal Tender Act[17]. By early 1865, $450 million in Greenbacks circulated, comprising over half of all currency[17]. This sovereign money system financed not just the Union Army but also massive infrastructure projects like the transcontinental railway[17].

Lincoln’s economic advisor, Henry C. Carey, declared: “The ‘greenback’ has fallen on the country as the dew falls, bringing with it good to all and doing injury to none” [17].

Tragically, Lincoln’s assassination on April 14, 1865[18] derailed this path to monetary independence. His murder, carried out by Confederate sympathizer John Wilkes Booth[18], allowed banking interests to reassert control. Lincoln’s vision of sovereign American currency died with him.

The bankers’ ultimate victory came in 1913 with two devastating blows:

  1. The Federal Reserve Act created a private central banking cartel disguised as a government entity
  2. The 16th Amendment, ratified February 3, 1913, enabled an unconstitutional income tax[19]

Although initially affecting less than 1% of Americans at a rate of only 1% of net income[19], this tax system would grow into an extraction machine, funding endless banker wars and debt servicing.

These two weapons—centralized banking and income taxation—forged the chains that still bind us today. Only by understanding this history can we recognize the urgency of our current fight against digital enslavement through CBDCs and stablecoin surveillance. The battle for financial freedom continues, and patriots must stand firm against banking tyranny.

III. Endless Wars for Banker Profit: The Debt Slavery Machine

Every dollar funding America’s endless foreign conflicts is extracted from your pocket through banker-engineered wars. These aren’t battles for freedom—they’re calculated business ventures designed by financial elites to enslave nations through debt.

World Wars led Germany to central cartels; Western banks funded the Bolshevik Revolution.

Foreign bankers don’t just profit from wars—they actively create them. When Vladimir Lenin and Leon Trotsky launched their 1917 communist revolution, they targeted Russia as the “weakest link” in global capitalism[20]. What patriots need to understand: this wasn’t some organic uprising but a banker-funded operation.

Hassan Malik’s research reveals how Imperial Russia had become the first emerging market for investment before collapsing in an anti-capitalist revolution[20]. The Bolsheviks’ 1918 debt repudiation triggered one of history’s most extensive defaults[20]. Yet documentary evidence suggests something more sinister—Lenin and Trotsky were receiving German bank payments throughout their revolutionary activities[21].

Secret documents from Russia’s Kontrrazvedka (Government secret service) exposed how German banks established agencies in Finland and Amsterdam specifically to fund revolutionary activities[21]. One telegram from June 18, 1917, confirms “315,000 marks have been transferred to Mr. Lenin’s account in Kronstadt as per order of syndicate” [21]. Additionally, banking house M. Warburg opened an account “for the undertaking of Comrade Trotsky” [21].

The banking cartels’ strategy remains unchanged: finance both sides of conflicts, creating profitable debt cycles while consolidating power over fractured nations. As the circular from February 23, 1915, instructed all ambassadors: propaganda should connect with “stirring up of social unrest and strikes; of revolutionary outbreaks resulting from it; of separatism among the component parts of the state; practically civil war” [21].

Fellow Patriots, the time to act is now—don’t let globalist bankers steal our sovereignty any longer! Stand with the Founders’ vision: Contact your representatives today to demand an audit and abolition of the tyrannical Fed.

Modern invasions: Iraq ditching dollars in 2000 leads to 2003 war; Gaddafi’s gold dinar riches crushed in 2011—reinstating petrodollar hegemony.

The banker-war machine continues operating today, crushing any nation daring to challenge dollar supremacy. In 2003, America invaded Iraq under false WMD pretenses. The actual threat? Iraq’s move away from petrodollar hegemony.

Following the invasion, the banking corruption was staggering. The U.S. flew nearly $12 billion in shrink-wrapped $100 bills into Iraq, distributed with virtually no oversight[22]. One contractor received a $2 million payment “in a duffel bag stuffed with shrink-wrapped bundles of currency” [22]. Another $774,300 in cash was stolen from a division’s vault[22]. Cash payments were made from pickup trucks and stored in “unguarded sacks in Iraqi ministry offices “[22].

One official was given $6.75 million with orders to spend it in just one week before the interim government took control[22]. The Coalition Provisional Authority’s financial advisor, Admiral David Oliver, displayed shocking indifference when asked about the missing $8.8 billion, responding: “I have no idea. I can’t tell you whether or not the money went to the right things or didn’t—nor do I actually think it’s important” [22].

Even more telling was his response when pressed about billions disappearing without a trace: “Of their money. Billions of dollars of their money, yeah, I understand. I’m saying, what difference does it make?” [22]

Between 2003 and 2014, over $220 billion was spent on reconstruction, including $74 billion in foreign aid[23]. U.S. Special Inspector General estimated that at least $8 billion of the $60 billion for reconstruction was entirely wasted[23].

Moving forward, Libya faced similar banking cartel wrath. In 2009, Colonel Gaddafi proposed a new currency independent of the American dollar—the gold dinar[24]. His fatal mistake was planning a single African currency made from gold that would eventually replace the U.S. dollar[25]. His brutal 2011 overthrow and murder wasn’t about “humanitarian intervention”—it was about crushing sovereign money and reinstating petrodollar control.

BIS’s 2025 anti-laundering guise: Scoring tokens, digital IDs, social credits, carbon taxes—psychological warfare on patriots!

The latest banking tyranny comes through supposedly “protective” regulatory frameworks. In 2025, the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) implemented supposedly anti-money laundering approaches for decentralized blockchain systems[26]. This seemingly benign regulation hides sinister control mechanisms.

The BIS now advocates “AML compliance scores” based on the likelihood that a particular cryptoasset is linked with “illicit activity” [26]. These scores can block inflows at banking system contact points, creating de facto financial blacklists[26].

This mirrors totalitarian digital control systems already operating abroad. Professor Matthias Desmet warns that digital ID systems like those proposed in Britain could lead to Chinese-style social credit systems[27]. He cautioned, “It will be dramatic if we really go to this digital society where we have a China-like digital social-credit system… It will destroy the very essence of the human being” [27].

The psychological warfare operation is already underway. As Desmet explains, “All that is needed now is the right psychological conditions to convince people. Suppose we are confronted with a significant crisis. In that case, it will be very easy to convince people that we need a fully controlled digital system—a digital identity, central-bank digital coins “[27].

The psychological trap is baited with “universal basic income” and mortgage relief—but at what cost? “People will lose their house, but they will enter a digital system and, without knowing it, they will be slaves of a control system as the world has never seen before “[27].

Coupled with censorship frameworks like Britain’s Online Safety Act, which allows removal of legal posts deemed “harmful,” we face unprecedented information control[27]. During COVID, “millions of posts were deleted—not illegal, but critical about the mainstream narrative” [27].

Most concerning, artificial intelligence is being deployed to “screen the entire public space and make sure people spread no disinformation or fake news” [27]. This is precisely how banking cartels silence opposition to their endless debt-based warfare system.

As Professor Desmet warns, “In a totalitarian system, when the resistance stops speaking out, the system becomes radically destructive. The only way to avoid that is when dissonant voices continue to speak out “[27]. The battle for financial sovereignty is inseparable from our fight for truth.

IV. Crypto Shadows: Tether’s CIA Ties and BCCI Echoes

Image Source: Foreign Policy

Behind today’s crypto innovation lurks a familiar specter: intelligence agencies and financial elites manipulating digital currencies much like they’ve operated for decades. The parallels between old-school banking scandals and modern stablecoins are impossible to ignore for those who understand the playbook.

BCCI’s CIA-laundered scandals: Arms, drugs, even minor trafficking in Senate reports—covered up by Barr.

The Bank of Credit and Commerce International (BCCI) operated as the ultimate deep state financial institution—nicknamed the “Bank of Crooks and Criminals International” by law enforcement for good reason[28]. This wasn’t just any corrupt bank; BCCI specifically catered to arms dealers, drug cartels, and hot money operations[28].

Most disturbing were its intelligence connections. The CIA openly admitted to having “several” accounts at BCCI[28]. At the same time, the National Security Council used BCCI accounts for covert operations and weapons transfers during Iran-Contra[28].

William Barr, later Attorney General under Bush and Trump, played a crucial role in burying these connections. When federal prosecutors in Miami tried to indict BCCI on fraud charges in 1991, Barr “repeatedly thwarted” their efforts[29]. Senate investigators led by John Kerry uncovered that BCCI’s collapse left $20 billion missing and countless depositors defrauded[30].

The bank’s operations involved laundering money for figures like Saddam Hussein and Manuel Noriega while providing financial services to terrorist organizations like Abu Nidal[28]. The Abu Nidal terrorist group even manipulated details and opened accounts at BCCI’s London branch using fake identities[28].

Despite overwhelming evidence, Barr consistently defended the administration’s handling of BCCI, claiming “all allegations that have surfaced have been pursued aggressively” [31]. Meanwhile, the CIA had known about BCCI’s illegal money laundering activities related to drugs since at least 1991[28].

Tether mirrors it: Intelligence links (Brock Pierce scandals), FTX role memory-holed, 2025 U.S. launch committing to dollar hegemony with FBI/Secret Service onboard—seizable, surveillable “banking the unbanked” trap.

Fast forward to today, and Tether operates with striking parallels. The world’s largest stablecoin is co-founded by Brock Pierce, a controversial figure with his own checkered past[32]. Pierce was involved with the Digital Entertainment Network, which imploded amid serious allegations in court filings that Pierce and associates had drugged and assaulted young men at parties[33].

Reject surveillable stablecoins like Tether’s USAT expansion, and push back against the BIS’s 2025 AML scoring schemes that threaten liberty.

In 2025, Tether unveiled USA₮, a U.S.-regulated stablecoin directly positioning itself as preserving “U.S. dollar dominance in the digital age” [34]. They’ve appointed Bo Hines, former Executive Director of the White House Crypto Council, to head this operation[34].

Most concerning, Tether has “recently onboarded the United States Secret Service” and is “in the process of doing the same” for the FBI[35]. The company proudly boasts of helping law enforcement freeze $23 million in funds[36] and assisting with blocking 2,090 wallets, including 960 in coordination with U.S. agencies[36].

While Tether presents this as fighting crime, the reality is more sinister: they’re building a surveillance infrastructure that makes BCCI look primitive. Their CEO openly celebrates their ability to “track transactions and freeze USDt” [36] – creating a financial control system masquerading as innovation.

Pump-and-dumps on Solana: Wealth transfers to elites, facilitating bad behavior under the U.S. empire’s financial weapons (WikiLeaks manual).

Meanwhile, the ecosystem surrounding Tether facilitates massive wealth extraction on Solana’s popular DEX Pump. Fun, an astonishing 98.6% of tokens collapse into worthless pump-and-dump schemes shortly after launch[37], directly transferring wealth from ordinary people to insiders.

Similarly, approximately 93% of liquidity pools (361,000 pools) on Raydium, another Solana DEX, exhibited characteristics of “soft rug pulls” where liquidity is abruptly withdrawn[37]. The financial impact is significant – some rug pulls reaching up to $1.9 million[37].

The “Hawk Tuah” token demonstrates the pattern perfectly. Within hours of launch, it reached nearly $500 million in market cap. Still, investigators discovered 80-90% of tokens were controlled by a few wallets. One wallet dumped their holdings within two hours, walking away with $1.3 million while the token crashed over 90%[38].

This isn’t accidental. It’s systematic wealth extraction—a digital echo of BCCI’s operations, now supercharged with technology but equally protected by the same intelligence apparatus that safeguarded past financial crimes.

V. The Libertarian-Republican Path: Reclaim True Freedom Money

Liberty begins with sound money—not the banker-controlled fiat we’ve endured since 1913. The path forward requires embracing Bitcoin’s revolutionary potential while rejecting central bank digital control systems that threaten American sovereignty.

Trump’s Bitcoin bullishness: No CBDCs, but stablecoin hype services debt—make the reserve a privacy fortress, not BlackRock’s tool!

President Trump’s landmark January 2025 Executive Order explicitly prohibits agencies from establishing or promoting Central Bank Digital Currencies[39]. This decisive action protects Americans from the Fed’s programmable slavery scheme. Nevertheless, his administration simultaneously embraces stablecoins through the GENIUS Act, which requires 100% reserve backing with liquid assets like U.S. dollars or short-term Treasuries[40].

This approach serves a dual purpose: cementing dollar dominance while generating increased demand for U.S. debt[40]. As stated by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, “A thriving stablecoin ecosystem will drive demand from the private sector for US Treasuries, which back stablecoins” [41].

Champion Trump’s 2025 Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Executive Order as our fortress of freedom money and join the Republican revolution to restore Constitutional sound money and America First prosperity.

Stablecoin issuers like Tether already exceed the government debt of Saudi Arabia[42]. Furthermore, all issuers must possess the technical capability to seize, freeze, or burn stablecoins when legally required[40]—raising serious privacy concerns.

Echo Mises, Rothbard, Ron Paul: End debt-based fiat, restore hard money standard—Bitcoin as original ethos vs. “number go up” sellout.

Ludwig von Mises, the brilliant Austrian economist, defined money as “the most marketable commodity” [43]. Accordingly, he insisted money must be a commodity, not a promise to pay[43]. For this reason, Mises recognized that “it is not justified by a single phenomenon of the market” to view money as a creation of government[43].

Ron Paul’s seminal book “End the Fed” exposes how the Federal Reserve—created by the Morgans and Rockefellers at a private club off Georgia’s coast—works against everyday Americans’ interests[44]. Paul warns that inflation threatens an economic depression where “$100 bills are worthless” [44].

Warnings: Government adoption risks mass surveillance; use pumped bags to fund privacy tech and financial independence.

Despite Bitcoin’s potential as freedom money, governmental involvement introduces significant surveillance risks. Indeed, stablecoin regulations now require compliance with the Bank Secrecy Act, mandating “effective anti-money laundering and sanctions compliance programs” [40].

Cryptocurrency exchanges remain prime targets for hackers, with billions stolen through cyberattacks[45]. Moreover, unlike traditional banks offering FDIC insurance, cryptocurrency users bear sole responsibility for securing their assets[45].

The battle lines are drawn. Will we allow the government to centralize all economic activity[46], or will we demand adherence to Article I, Section 10 of our Constitution? The choice is clear: audit and abolish the Fed, embrace Bitcoin’s freedom principles, and restore America’s financial sovereignty now!

VI. Call to Action: Defend Your Liberty Now!

The time for mere awareness has passed—today, we must take action against the unconstitutional banking cartel enslaving our nation. Patriots across America are rising up to reclaim financial sovereignty through decisive steps that restore liberty.

Audit and abolish the Fed—We the People demand no more foreign entanglements or programmable chains eroding sovereignty!

Representative Massie’s groundbreaking legislation, co-sponsored by ten Republican representatives, directly abolishes the Federal Reserve’s Board of Governors and banks while repealing the Federal Reserve Act[47]. Undeniably, Senator Mike Lee leads the companion bill in the Senate, declaring “the Federal Reserve is one of many examples of how we’ve deviated from the Constitution” [48].

Henceforth, our movement grows stronger. The “End the Fed” Facebook page has gathered 350,000 supporters. At the same time, Elon Musk himself has publicly supported the call to abolish this unconstitutional institution[48]. As the national debt exceeds $35 trillion, Bitcoin provides a crucial hedge against the Fed’s perpetual currency devaluation[48].
