Relatable with Allie Beth Stuckey - Ep 470 ｜ BlackRock, Bill Gates & the Great Reset

00:00:00.000 Hey guys, welcome to Relatable. We got a big episode for you today. If this does not red

00:00:20.480 pill you and everyone you know, I don't know what will. We are about to take the mask off

00:00:28.980 of everything that's been happening for the past year and a half and actually everything

00:00:33.020 that has been happening before that, at least as much as we know. So we've talked about the

00:00:37.540 Great Reset on this podcast before. I wish I could say it was a conspiracy theory. Like

00:00:42.660 I wish I could just put on my tinfoil hat and say, you know, none of this is really happening,

00:00:47.660 but it's fun to talk about. That's not the case. Like we are talking about the facts of

00:00:52.720 what is going on in the highest levels of both national and global governance and influence

00:00:58.640 and how everything that's been happening for the past year and a half. And like I said,

00:01:03.520 beyond that plays into it. Now I'm going to warn you, like this is going to be overwhelming

00:01:10.540 at times. Okay. Like there's probably going to be times when you're going to have to pause

00:01:14.300 this and you're going to have to just take a deep breath and remind yourself that God

00:01:18.220 is sovereign. And it's scary. Like I'm not going to lie to you, but I really, really encourage

00:01:25.640 you to listen to or watch this entire episode, to share it with everyone that you know, to

00:01:32.200 beg them to listen to it and watch it, and then go talk about it with them and do whatever

00:01:38.320 you can to be involved where you are to speak up about that, which is good and right and

00:01:43.860 true, because that matters. It might seem sometimes in this episode, like there's nothing you can

00:01:48.120 do. I don't believe that. I simply don't believe that. And then at the end, I'm going to leave

00:01:52.680 us with some encouragement, with some biblical encouragement, because at the end of the day,

00:01:58.240 God is on his throne. He is the one that's sovereign. But gosh, I cannot recommend you

00:02:03.220 listen to this interview anymore. So without further ado, here is Justin Haskins.

00:02:16.080 Justin, thank you so much for joining us again. Can you remind everyone who you are and what you do?

00:02:21.100 Sure. My name is Justin Haskins. I am the editorial director and a research fellow at the Heartland

00:02:27.800 Institute, which is a national free market think tank. And at the Heartland Institute, I head our

00:02:32.840 Stopping Socialism Center there, the director of that center. And we have a website, stopping

00:02:38.860 socialism.com and a whole bunch of events that we run every year. And our goal is to fight against

00:02:43.840 socialism and especially teach younger kids about younger people, the importance of capitalism and free

00:02:50.500 markets and individual liberty and the dangers of socialism and collectivism.

00:02:54.440 Well, that is really important work. And we're glad that you do it. You've been on the podcast

00:02:58.680 before. We talked about The Great Reset. We'll link to that previous episode in the description of

00:03:04.140 this show and a lot of good feedback about that show, because a lot of people didn't really know

00:03:11.040 if The Great Reset was anything beyond conspiracy theory. And now, you know, several months later,

00:03:17.760 we're still talking about it. And one thing that I've seen people talk about a lot that I just

00:03:21.800 don't fully understand, you know, what is going on here is BlackRock and BlackRock buying a bunch of

00:03:29.720 homes. So can you tell us, do those two things go together? What is BlackRock? What the heck is going

00:03:34.480 on? Is it a conspiracy theory? Just break it all down for us. Sure, sure. So first of all, there is it is an

00:03:42.460 important issue. There's no doubt about it whatsoever. It's not about just one single

00:03:47.340 company, BlackRock. For a lot of reasons, BlackRock is the one getting all of the attention. But the

00:03:52.860 fact of the matter is, there's a whole bunch of corporations who are buying up property. And they're

00:03:58.400 buying up a lot of middle class homes or homes that the middle class would traditionally be

00:04:02.680 interested in buying, in some cases, buying up whole developments. 15% of all homes for sale in the

00:04:10.040 first quarter of this year were purchased by corporations. In cities like Houston, corporations

00:04:17.040 and investment management groups have purchased one quarter of homes that were for sale, available

00:04:23.900 for sale. There was the Wall Street Journal did a really influential report earlier this year that

00:04:29.420 kind of sparked this conversation, because there was this whole housing development in a suburb of

00:04:35.160 Houston called Conroe that was purchased by a corporation, the entire housing development. And nobody

00:04:41.640 expected that that was going to happen. They just showed up and paid millions of dollars to buy every

00:04:45.940 single home in this new development. There are zip codes in the Atlanta area, which is full of

00:04:52.900 corporations buying up these homes. There are zip codes in the Atlanta area where certain years, 90% of the

00:05:00.360 homes for sale are purchased by corporations. So there are large corporations and investment management

00:05:06.200 groups like BlackRock and Blackstone, which is different from BlackRock, and a whole bunch of

00:05:11.960 others that are purchasing these homes. It isn't a problem everywhere, which I think is one of the most

00:05:19.560 important things for people to understand. When people talk about these companies going up and snatching

00:05:26.140 homes everywhere they can find them, that's not exactly true. They're targeting markets where it

00:05:30.700 makes sense for them financially to buy these homes. They're coming in, they're outbidding everybody in

00:05:36.140 the area, and they're buying homes en masse. But it's not everywhere. It's only in desirable locations,

00:05:42.940 which of course is a problem because they tend to be middle homes for the middle class. And so it's really

00:05:48.060 hard in these markets for families who normally would be able to afford these homes to buy them because

00:05:54.060 they're competing with these big gigantic corporations who are able to afford paying a

00:05:59.980 lot more for these houses. And why are they doing this? Okay, so there are a variety of reasons for

00:06:06.860 why they're doing it. I think the primary reason they're doing it is because housing can be a very

00:06:13.740 good investment. These large corporations have access to capital right now at a very, very low cost.

00:06:23.020 What I mean by that is they can go to banks and they can get loans for millions or hundreds of

00:06:29.500 millions or even billions of dollars in some cases to purchase huge amounts of property or several

00:06:36.620 kinds of property developments and things like that over a long period of time at very,

00:06:41.340 very low interest rates. When regular people go to get a mortgage today, and right now mortgage rates

00:06:48.060 are very, very low. They're paying between 2% to 4% depending on their credit and other things,

00:06:54.460 their down payment, that sort of thing. These big corporations can get access to massive amounts

00:07:01.260 of money for a little over 1% interest rate. Now, that doesn't seem like a whole lot. Maybe that's not

00:07:08.620 a huge difference, but it is. It's half in some cases. In some situations, it might be a third of what

00:07:15.500 you're able to get it at. They already have lots of money. If you're a bank, who are you going to

00:07:22.700 give the loan to? Are you going to give it to some regular person who may not ever pay it back or to a

00:07:26.780 giant corporation? Are you going to give them a better rate than regular people? It's a good investment

00:07:34.700 for them. They have access to this capital. The reason they have access to this capital is because of

00:07:39.260 all of this money printing that's been going on from the Federal Reserve. That's the main reason.

00:07:45.100 That's the driver behind all of this. It hasn't just been going on this past year. This has been

00:07:49.900 going on for well over a decade to varying degrees. It's just increased in the past year or so because

00:07:57.980 of all of the money printing that's happened with the Federal Reserve. Some people speculate that the

00:08:03.900 Federal Reserve and these big banks and these corporations are actually intentionally in cahoots

00:08:09.820 to basically try to, for lack of a better word, screw the middle working class. Do you think that's true

00:08:15.660 or is that a conspiracy? So I think that there is no doubt that they're in cahoots and they are working

00:08:23.340 together. The question is, are they doing it because they want to screw the middle class? I think the answer

00:08:29.100 is not really. I think this is actually a symptom of a much larger structural change, a much larger

00:08:37.500 movement that's being pushed by these elites at these big financial institutions and on Wall Street

00:08:44.460 and in corporations and in government and elsewhere, international institutions. It's all part of the

00:08:50.220 Great Reset type stuff that we had talked about before. This endless printing of money that's been going on

00:08:56.220 is not being distributed equally to people throughout society. It's mostly being concentrated in the hands

00:09:04.300 of these big corporations and these big financial institutions at the top. The money is circulating

00:09:10.700 from banks to corporations to investment managers. That's what BlackRock is, is an investment management

00:09:16.380 company. And they're all getting really, really rich off of this. Now, I believe that they're,

00:09:22.540 in a sense, it is a form of collusion, I guess you could say, that they're doing all of this. They

00:09:28.700 all know each other. They all hang out at Davos with each other. I do believe there is a plan here,

00:09:34.140 but I don't think the goal is, well, let's just screw the middle class. I think the goal is,

00:09:38.460 let's get as rich as we possibly can using this system for as long as we can possibly do it. And in the

00:09:45.020 process, we become really powerful and really influential and we can help change society and

00:09:51.100 alter society and create wokeness throughout our society. Yeah. So are they trying to, would they

00:09:57.500 say that, would they say that they're trying to make society more equitable somehow? Is that like

00:10:03.580 how they kind of, I don't know, mask their greed? Yeah. I mean, there's no doubt that that's what

00:10:11.020 they're saying is the purpose of the great reset. And this is a part of the great reset, I believe,

00:10:16.780 is to make society more equitable, to make it greener. This whole ESG system that we've talked

00:10:23.180 about before on your podcast of reworking the way that we evaluate corporations and businesses

00:10:30.060 so that instead of just looking at how good the products and services are that a corporation

00:10:35.420 produces or how happy this customers are, how much money you make, we look at those things.

00:10:40.460 But we also look at this elaborate system of metrics called ESG metrics, environmental,

00:10:46.860 social and governance metrics, so that companies that may not be as profitable, may not produce

00:10:52.620 services that are as good or as desirable in the marketplace as some other company is valued higher

00:10:59.980 because they are woke based on all of these ESG metrics. This is the system that's being rolled

00:11:07.260 out. It's already in place in many corporations. And so there is, there's no doubt about it that

00:11:12.540 that's a huge component of it. They want to use their economic power to alter society. Yeah. The

00:11:18.940 question that you asked is, is this, you know, why are they doing this? Is it really because they care

00:11:25.340 about these woke causes or are they just trying to get really, really rich? I think personally,

00:11:30.780 they're just trying to get really, really rich and that all of these woke causes that they've adopted

00:11:36.700 is a way of getting the far left to buy into all of this and allow this to go on. So they've created this

00:11:43.500 alliance with, with people on the far left. They'll leave them alone because these, these while and

00:11:49.980 watch while these big corporations snatch up property, while these banks print trillions and trillions of

00:11:54.700 dollars of the fed and all these people get filthy rich, the left will allow this to happen because

00:12:00.540 these institutions are promoting left-wing causes. And I think that's the primary motivation that's

00:12:05.980 behind a lot of these things that are going on. You know, what you said about the ESG score makes

00:12:10.780 a lot of sense when you hear conservatives asking myself included, like, why do these companies want

00:12:16.860 to risk polarizing potentially, you know, half of their customer base? Don't they just want to make,

00:12:22.380 don't they just want to make as much money as possible? And so why do they latch on to these

00:12:26.300 policies that they know are really unpopular? And obviously, I think one of the reasons is that

00:12:32.060 they know conservatives just don't tend to boycott and they don't feel like they can. Okay, it's really

00:12:37.340 hard not to use Amazon or Twitter or a lot of these big corporations. So they know that they probably

00:12:43.100 won't lose that many people. But also, if they can get a lot of value from promoting these kinds of

00:12:51.820 woke causes that, you know, will end up giving them profit in a way that, you know, just having

00:12:58.540 conservatives like them wouldn't, then that makes a lot of sense when they are kind of weighing this

00:13:04.220 cost-benefit analysis. Like, they're okay with losing customers like me and you. Because at the end of the

00:13:09.900 day, they have value elsewhere, basically. And can you back up a little bit, just for those who

00:13:18.700 maybe didn't watch the previous episode with you, what is the Great Reset and how does all of this

00:13:25.200 kind of tie together? Right. So the Great Reset is a slogan. It's a slogan that was created by the

00:13:31.940 World Economic Forum and by a bunch of global elites that got together in 2020. They launched this

00:13:38.740 in June of 2020. It was a who's who of big institutions. Heads of corporations were there.

00:13:46.640 The World Economic Forum was sort of the leader of this. They're the folks that are behind the

00:13:50.880 annual Davos meeting that everyone always loves to talk about, brings in big, rich celebrities and

00:13:56.120 heads of corporations and stuff every year. They could talk about how they can make the world a better

00:14:00.680 place. That's held in Switzerland. The Prince Charles, the Prince of Wales, the United Kingdom was one of

00:14:07.620 the co-hosts of this meeting. The head of the United Nations was there, the head of the International

00:14:11.880 Monetary Fund. There were people like John Kerry and Al Gore have endorsed it. John Kerry was very open

00:14:21.540 about the Great Reset and Joe Biden's support for the Great Reset, even though Joe Biden didn't

00:14:26.300 necessarily come out and talk about it specifically. So what is the Great Reset? It is a movement to

00:14:32.280 transform the global economy. The Great Reset is a is a slogan that they came up with. It means pushing

00:14:38.940 the reset button on the global economy. They want to move from what they call a shareholder capitalist

00:14:45.560 system, which is our sort of our modern economy, to what they're calling a stakeholder capitalist

00:14:52.140 system. And what they mean by stakeholder capitalist is collectivist capitalist. They want to change

00:14:59.420 our market economy so that companies that are operating, banks that are operating within the

00:15:06.560 economy have to put the collective before profits, before shareholders, before customers, before the

00:15:13.560 quality of goods and services. And that manifests itself through this ESG system, right? The E is

00:15:21.580 environment. So like climate change and air quality and all of these things and social justice causes

00:15:27.900 would be the S and G is governance. It's like responsible governance of the actual businesses

00:15:33.820 themselves. And so some of the things that they want to do, like not do business with people who

00:15:39.100 engage in child labor, for example, is great. That's a good thing. Yeah, but they'll never do that

00:15:44.380 because they I mean, they'll never do that because that would mean excluding China. And China has to be a

00:15:49.140 huge part of this, right? Well, China always China, China always gets around all of these things.

00:15:55.060 Right. The rules never apply to China. But the idea behind the Great Reset is to change the Western

00:16:01.260 world. They have no control over the Eastern world. The West is all that they can control. And that's

00:16:06.980 really right. Exactly. And going back on what you said earlier, because what you said earlier is so,

00:16:11.940 so important. You hit on a really important point about why would these companies go along with all of

00:16:17.420 this? Why would they do this if they're going to lose and alienate all these millions of customers?

00:16:22.740 Right. The reason that they're going to do it is because the massive amount of money printing that

00:16:27.100 has occurred over the past decade and a half or so has created so much wealth amongst these elites

00:16:34.480 and these banks and these investment management companies that they control way more money than all of

00:16:42.420 the customers in America combined. To give you some sense of what's going on here, a company like

00:16:48.860 BlackRock has $9 trillion in management and manages $9 trillion worth of wealth. If you take the top 10

00:16:57.880 investment management companies in the world, like BlackRock, State Street Investments, there's a bunch

00:17:04.420 of them, subsidiaries of banks, and you just take the top 10 and you add all their wealth together,

00:17:09.080 it's more than $34 trillion of wealth. The entire GDP of the United States of America last year was

00:17:18.000 less than $21 trillion. All consumer spending combined last year was about $12.5 to $13 trillion.

00:17:28.520 So these people control way more money, way more wealth than you or I or all of the American public

00:17:36.280 combined. That's how much money they have. And where did this money come from? It came largely

00:17:41.620 from this money printing that's been going on with the Fed and them pumping it into these financial

00:17:46.780 institutions and then the money being circulated around these big fat cat Wall Street firms and

00:17:52.440 hedge funds and banks and all of these people. They're all getting really, really rich and they're

00:17:57.580 taking that money and they're buying stock in these companies and they're essentially forcing these

00:18:03.900 companies to go along with it. And frankly, they're all they're fine with going along with all the CSG

00:18:08.920 score stuff, this woke stuff, everything else, because they're all getting rich to all the heads

00:18:13.520 of these corporations. So the reason they're going along with it and the reason they don't care about

00:18:18.180 boycotts from people like us is because even if every single American boycotted companies,

00:18:24.020 we still don't have anywhere near as much wealth as these elites at BlackRock and places like that.

00:18:30.400 So how does this play out then? Like explain it to us like we're five to take a quote from Michael

00:18:39.080 Scott about this collectivist capitalist capitalism. What does it look like if if these companies and if

00:18:48.040 this, you know, group gets their way? What it looks like is the transformation that would occur is you

00:18:57.240 would have big, large government programs, you know, Green New Deal, all the things that they're

00:19:02.680 trying to push in Congress right now in America and in Europe and elsewhere in the West, right?

00:19:09.380 They would have all these big, gigantic programs and expansion of the welfare state. That would be

00:19:13.560 part of it. That would be that would be the part that deals with people who don't have any wealth.

00:19:18.100 And then the other part of it would be creating this ESG system where companies are now being

00:19:23.640 evaluated based largely on their devotion to left wing causes and the companies that refuse to go

00:19:30.700 along with this or who don't do very well on these scoring metric systems that have been created

00:19:35.580 won't get access to capital. They won't be able to get bank accounts. They won't be able to get loans.

00:19:41.700 They won't be able to exist unless they comply with the system that's created by this ESG system,

00:19:47.280 this ESG metric system. The whole point of the ESG system is to create a system that allows you to

00:19:54.480 tell who the good companies are from the bad companies. That's the whole point of it so that

00:20:00.220 we can exclude all the people who won't play ball and include only the companies that will.

00:20:07.180 And to give you some sense of just how far reaching this is, the ESG, one of the big ESG reports that was

00:20:12.960 produced about Facebook actually gave Facebook a low ESG score. And the reason they gave Facebook

00:20:19.600 a low ESG score was because they said they weren't doing enough to censor people. They needed to do

00:20:24.920 more to censor people. So it's as minute as that. They are rolling this system out all over the world.

00:20:33.300 More than 80% of large companies in the United States already have ESG systems in place. This has been

00:20:39.060 going on for a long time. It's been building. And so what is the economy going to look like in 2030?

00:20:44.740 It's going to be the rich are going to keep getting richer. They're going to use that wealth to buy

00:20:49.320 more stock, more power over these companies, force them to become even woker than they are today.

00:20:55.700 They're going to use that wealth to buy up property. And they're going to turn our society into a renter

00:21:00.820 society where we're all dependent on these big corporations for virtually any everything. And

00:21:06.380 they're going to use the financial system to kill all of the industries and companies that they don't

00:21:11.500 like. So you won't need to pass a law that says that Ali Stuckey can't talk about, I don't know,

00:21:17.420 transgenderism on Twitter. They won't need to do that. All they'll have to do is create an ESG metric

00:21:22.940 that punishes Twitter for not punishing you. And Twitter will just go ahead and punish you anyway.

00:21:29.120 They're already doing this because the system is already in place and it's already starting to be

00:21:33.440 rolled out. So the world is going to look sort of like what we see today, but just on steroids,

00:21:40.180 it's going to get worse and worse and worse. And it really is the, I think the most important issue

00:21:46.880 of our time because it touches on all these other things that you and I care and talk about.

00:21:52.420 And we just don't realize how interconnected they all are.

00:21:55.480 So to bring it back full circle to the BlackRock thing, so are they, they're purchasing these

00:22:11.440 properties and sorry if you already said this, to make them into rental properties, to try to

00:22:16.800 basically make the middle class perpetual renters so they can't gain equity and all the things that

00:22:23.380 kind of help you accumulate wealth?

00:22:26.680 There's no doubt that they are buying up properties and they are using them as rental properties.

00:22:32.880 That's the primary way that these large corporations, it's the primary reason for why they're buying up

00:22:37.660 the property. The motivation is partly, I mean, we're now kind of speculating what their motivation

00:22:44.840 is, right? It's very possible that that is a big component of it, is we just want to consolidate

00:22:50.260 wealth, consolidate power, and make everybody dependent on the ruling class because we know

00:22:55.800 better than everybody else. There's no doubt that I think that there's a component of that going on.

00:23:01.420 I also think that there's a strong financial motivation for this, though, because they know

00:23:06.020 that the Fed is printing so much money, and we're talking trillions and trillions of dollars more than

00:23:12.300 they, than they printed back in the 2008 financial crisis. Trillions and trillions of dollars more than

00:23:18.360 then. They know that the Fed is printing so much money that the dollar is eventually going to have

00:23:24.120 to be phased out, and probably some kind of digital currency is going to have to be bought in. And if

00:23:29.140 you know that that's coming, and these people are all at the very top of these systems, so if there is

00:23:34.800 something like that in the works, they would know it, then the best thing you can do is buy hard assets,

00:23:40.960 buy gold, buy mines, buy property, buy farming, and that's what we're seeing these elite institutions

00:23:48.980 do. They're buying up these houses, I think in large part, because even if the dollar crashes,

00:23:55.160 a house is still worth a house, and that house will hold value over a long period of time because

00:24:00.720 people need to live somewhere, right? So there's an element of that as well. I do think the crash,

00:24:07.620 which I think is inevitable, the inevitable crash of the dollar is a component in all of this,

00:24:12.940 in their thinking. Does this have anything to do with the fact, I mean, just connecting all of the

00:24:19.580 crazy dots out there, but that seem to actually be connected in some way, does this have anything to

00:24:25.720 do with Bill Gates owning the most farmland of anyone in the United States? Does that have anything

00:24:33.580 to do with any of this, or is that separate? Well, my guess is that it has everything to do

00:24:39.720 with it. I think it absolutely is connected. I would argue almost everything that happens is in

00:24:45.800 some way related to this. This is a fundamental transformation of our society, and that doesn't

00:24:52.120 come from me. That comes from them. They're the ones saying this. They're the ones saying that we need

00:24:58.680 to, in the words of John Kerry, we need to change the social contract of our society because the

00:25:05.920 existing social contract doesn't work. That's the kind of things that these people are saying at these

00:25:10.720 meetings. Prince Charles said that COVID-19, the pandemic, was a golden opportunity, a golden

00:25:17.080 opportunity to change society. They are very clear that this is a total transformation of society.

00:25:25.960 And as far as Bill Gates goes, Mike, the head of Microsoft, the CEO of that company,

00:25:31.860 the president of that company, has been heavily involved in all of this Great Reset stuff.

00:25:37.200 Microsoft has been deeply connected to the World Economic Forum, which is leading the charge on this

00:25:41.920 whole Great Reset movement. I have no doubt that Bill Gates, at the very least, knows this is where

00:25:47.320 everything is heading and knows that the best thing that he can do to make sure that he maintains

00:25:52.060 his wealth in the future is to buy up hard assets, buy up land, because land will always be worth

00:25:58.220 something because people need land. They need food to eat and they need a place to live. So land will

00:26:04.260 always be valuable. So he's purchasing it up. You also have the federal government talking about

00:26:08.460 restricting land ownership pretty dramatically. Joe Biden has a 30 by 30 plan. His goal is for the

00:26:15.340 federal government to control, conserve 30 percent of all land by 2030 in the United States.

00:26:21.660 Well, what's his reasoning for it? Is it some kind of conservation?

00:26:25.680 Exactly. He's saying it's for environmental reasons. But I think that the reason is they're

00:26:30.700 putting a squeeze on on on everybody except for the people who are the elites. See, the elites know

00:26:37.700 all this is coming. So they have time to put their money in land, to put their money in housing

00:26:44.100 developments, to put their money in the assets that are going to hold its value. Meanwhile, regular

00:26:48.780 people have no clue that any of this stuff is going on. I had no clue any of this stuff was going on

00:26:53.300 until about a year and a half ago when I started seeing crazy quotes from people at the World Economic

00:26:58.060 Forum. And I started looking into it. The average person has no clue what's happening. These people

00:27:03.080 are all setting themselves up for the next phase. And I have I know that this is the case because

00:27:10.180 they're the ones saying that they're doing all of this and their actions are speaking louder than

00:27:15.300 their words. Now, how does China come in, come into play here? Because obviously, if we lived in

00:27:21.980 any kind of sane world, their their ESG score would be very low. We know them to be tyrannical. We know

00:27:31.560 them to perpetuate all kinds of human rights abuses, not just in China, but also in how they're,

00:27:37.060 you know, colonizing places in Africa and in South America. I mean, just one of the most destructive

00:27:44.460 regimes in the world. And yet I can't see Bill Gates or any of these major corporations doing

00:27:52.540 anything to punish China. As you said, it's really the West and America that they see as the real

00:27:58.520 problem. So how did they come into play here? Do they like this plan? I mean, do they benefit from

00:28:06.560 something like this? Yeah, that's that's a really, really important question. I think

00:28:12.620 they absolutely benefit from this system, but not in the way that people in the West

00:28:18.380 are benefiting from the system. What China wants more than anything by people in the West benefiting

00:28:24.140 from the system, you're talking about the corporations and the rich people. You're not

00:28:27.180 talking about exactly the global elites in the West benefit from the system. Regular people get

00:28:32.280 totally screwed by it. Yeah. China benefits from this system, not because they're going to be able

00:28:38.440 to, you know, participate in it the same way that people like John Kerry are participating in it.

00:28:44.320 The reason they benefit from it is because I think they know that this system is going to collapse the

00:28:49.420 West. And what it's doing is it's creating an infrastructure to control society through corporations.

00:28:56.860 That's what this whole ESG system is designed to do. And you're using the financial system in order

00:29:02.400 to make this all run. If you think of the Great Reset as a machine, the machine runs on all of this

00:29:08.320 printed cash, right? Well, what in these corporations will do anything to get this money. And these

00:29:14.020 investment firms are forcing them to go along with it using this money that's being printed.

00:29:18.440 Well, what happens when the money stops becoming as valuable as it is right now? What happens if the

00:29:25.860 dollar does collapse? Maybe it never does. But what happens if it does collapse? Well, then the system,

00:29:31.200 the machine still exists. The infrastructure is still there to control society. But a power vacuum now

00:29:37.100 exists. These corporations need money. They need money to keep operating. They will go anywhere where

00:29:42.980 there's real wealth. And guess who has lots of real wealth? Guess who's buying lots of assets? Guess

00:29:49.120 who's purchasing gigantic mines and buying gold and taking dollars and building whole new infrastructure

00:29:56.100 in places like Africa, like you described, all over the East through the Belt and Road Initiative and all

00:30:00.820 these things? It's China. So China can easily step into the void here when this whole system inevitably

00:30:07.640 comes crashing down and use the Great Reset infrastructure that's being built now to force

00:30:13.940 companies to do what it wants. It doesn't these corporations, they have no allegiance to America. They don't

00:30:20.280 care. They've already shipped jobs and money overseas to China and places like that. They've been doing it for

00:30:25.200 years. All they want is to keep the money flowing in. The other thing that China can do is actually buy stock in

00:30:31.920 these companies. There's nothing stopping them from buying up companies through the stock market. They're going to do

00:30:36.800 that too. So in that way, I think China is benefiting from this. From the perspective of these elites in the

00:30:43.840 West, however, I think they believe, and if you listen to them talk, in fact, Joe Biden's been one of the

00:30:49.420 clearest people on this point. They believe that the transformation of society that they're pushing is

00:30:55.440 essential to battle China because they believe that the Chinese model of essentially markets mixed with

00:31:03.500 authoritarianism is impossible to compete with if you have a free market economy. The only way to compete

00:31:11.100 with it is to move more in the direction of China and then maybe back it off a little bit before you get

00:31:16.780 to, you know, throwing people into concentration camps. And that's what this Great Reset is. I believe it is a

00:31:23.080 competing system designed to try to beat China at its own game. And in reality, I don't think it's possible.

00:31:30.800 I think they're going to lose. And I think they're handing China the greatest economic weapon of all

00:31:37.040 time in building this gigantic infrastructure that can easily be controlled. I know we're getting like

00:31:41.760 really far in the weeds here. No, no, this is this is good. I mean, this covers the things that that we

00:31:47.100 talk about. And by saying when you say I think that they're going to lose, you're talking about,

00:31:51.780 you know, the Davos people. You're talking about them losing, but you're talking about them not

00:31:57.540 losing and things getting better, but losing to China. Right. And what would that loss then looks

00:32:04.520 like look like? Because I agree with you. You can't move in the direction of authoritarianism

00:32:08.840 and then back off because people in power never do that. By the way, they don't surrender power

00:32:13.200 willingly and then say, OK, now, you know, we're back to regular capitalism, individualism and all of

00:32:19.860 that. So if they do go that direction and they do lose to China, what does that look like?

00:32:26.860 Right. So what it would mean is that this ESG system that exists where there's all these metrics

00:32:32.260 that that provide scores to people based on a whole bunch of different things. And a lot of it is just

00:32:37.420 woke left wing ideology that are put into these metrics. These metrics can be changed. There's nothing

00:32:43.300 set in stone. There's no reason you can't change the metrics to be whatever it is. The people with the

00:32:48.220 money want them to be and they can reward the companies. The people with the money can reward

00:32:54.640 companies in any way that they see fit. So these metrics can change. They're easily changed. In fact,

00:32:59.220 they change all the time. If China is the one with all the money because the dollar has collapsed,

00:33:05.780 because America is no longer the biggest player in the global economy anymore, then China is the one

00:33:13.160 that's going to be able to set the rules for how people have to operate. And our economy will

00:33:17.860 easily be transformed through these corporations, through this great reset infrastructure to serve

00:33:23.400 the interests of China, whatever those interests are. And by serving the interest of China, I mean

00:33:28.380 serving the Communist Party of China, who essentially controls everything over there. That's how this can

00:33:34.720 all easily play out. And you're seeing what I like to call canaries in the coal mine already. You're

00:33:42.000 starting to see this already. Hollywood caters to China already. They change their movie advertisements.

00:33:49.720 They alter movies. They do all sorts of things to make the Chinese government happy. We saw earlier

00:33:55.080 this year, John Cena, an actor, apologize for offending China. LeBron James, the NBA.

00:34:02.860 I think John Cena just said something about Taiwan. Right. I'm pretty sure that was. Yeah.

00:34:09.360 Yeah. In passing, he said, Taiwan, we treated Taiwan as if it were a country and sort of in passing.

00:34:14.580 And this so angered the Communist Party of China that they demanded that he change. And he immediately

00:34:21.040 bowed down to it. Again, the NBA, LeBron James, all of these people, similar circumstances have

00:34:27.760 happened with them where they've already done this. The head of Nike has recently come out and

00:34:32.060 basically said that our values align perfectly, or not perfectly, but our values align with China's

00:34:39.460 values. I mean, this is already starting to happen. The reason they're doing it is because

00:34:45.000 China's got the money. They know that. If our system collapses because we're printing ourselves

00:34:51.160 into oblivion and just spending reckless amounts of money, and I think that it will inevitably happen.

00:34:56.440 The elites don't. But I think that it will happen. Then China will become more powerful than ever and

00:35:03.420 will be able to use that money to force our corporations and our businesses to go along with

00:35:08.900 whatever China wants because they're going to be the ones with the real wealth. So what will the world

00:35:13.300 look like? This might sound to a lot of people like, well, how could this ever happen? Why would America ever

00:35:18.800 do what China wants? I think people need to understand the world has been doing what America

00:35:24.220 wants for a very, very long time. So all we're doing is flipping the script here. And instead of people

00:35:31.800 having to do what America wants, instead of Americans making movies and creating corporate culture and

00:35:38.260 exporting it to the world, China will do the same thing. They'll step in that role and then we will be

00:35:44.220 beholden to them. They have a lot more people than us. They're extremely authoritarian. The culture

00:35:51.480 there is very, very different than the culture here. They're much more willing to live in an

00:35:56.060 authoritarian society. And over time, those gaps are only going to get bigger with population and

00:36:02.460 wealth and all of that other stuff. I think we are on a path to lose this battle with China and for

00:36:09.080 China to be able to use the infrastructure we're building now to control our society. And the worst

00:36:15.980 part of it is, if I'm wrong and China can't beat our elites, then our elites will be in charge of

00:36:22.260 society. So if we don't stop this movement of woke corporatism and cronyism and massive printing of

00:36:31.700 money and all of these things that are happening, if we don't stop that, individual people are going to

00:36:37.760 lose all of their freedom, either to the elites or to China or to both. But it's going to happen.

00:36:44.340 Yes. And I want to ask you more about that, how we how we stop that. But I first want to ask you

00:36:50.820 about how a couple other things play into everything we're talking about. Well, first, let me say that

00:36:54.880 we've talked about on this show before that there's always going to be a world superpower.

00:36:59.140 Like you've heard a lot over the especially the past year and a half, people who, you know,

00:37:03.040 read Howard's End, a people's history of America, and they think that they really know that America

00:37:09.300 is this bad, awful place. And they're actually OK with America not being the great superpower

00:37:14.360 anymore because America doesn't deserve it because we're so racist and awful. And actually,

00:37:18.700 you saw this a lot in Barack Obama's presidency. Even if the Great Reset wasn't something that was

00:37:24.120 necessarily prevalent when Barack Obama took office, I do think that the whole apology tour,

00:37:30.800 the whole idea that America really has never been that great. America really, really isn't,

00:37:37.320 you know, this city on a hill that we need to that the rest of the world needs to follow.

00:37:42.640 That started a long time ago. That really started. Well, in academia, it started decades ago. But I think

00:37:49.920 in the presidency, it kind of started under Barack Obama. And a lot of what we're seeing right now,

00:37:54.660 even with, you know, it might sound crazy to connect this, but even what we're seeing with

00:37:58.920 critical race theory and what's being taught in public schools and what's being taught in colleges,

00:38:03.660 this what I think is a completely erroneous look at the United States as just this pervasively evil

00:38:11.920 power both here and abroad that has never been good, never been for justice, never been for true

00:38:16.940 liberty, never been for truth. All of that, that self-loathing that I think has been imported

00:38:22.440 by communist China and maybe some, you know, other foreign regimes and is also just kind of

00:38:28.200 burgeoned here organically. I think that that plays into all of this because if you've got a people that

00:38:33.660 doesn't even really believe in liberty anymore, you don't even really believe in the ideals on which

00:38:38.200 we are founded, and you actually buy into this idea that, you know, Western civilization really isn't

00:38:43.760 all that great, then you're going to be much less resistant to what's coming, especially,

00:38:50.220 and we see that especially right now with people being willing to say, you know, mandatory vaccine

00:38:56.100 passports and all that. People are so willing to exchange all of their liberty for a little bit of

00:39:01.960 temporary safety. And I think that that is accelerating this transformation of society. Do you agree with

00:39:11.720 that? Yeah, without a doubt. There's no doubt at all. One of the most interesting things about what's

00:39:18.080 happened over the past few decades in America is that the left, in an effort to try to create this

00:39:25.720 fundamental transformation, has attempted to destroy basically every part of our existing system and

00:39:34.480 undermine American history and undermine all of the fundamental values that have made this country so

00:39:40.680 great for so long. That's all been part of the process, as you just beautifully laid out. There's

00:39:45.420 no doubt about that whatsoever. What's interesting about that is they're so eager to burn the system

00:39:50.580 down. Yeah. But there's no clear plan for what we replace it with after the fact. Even the people on

00:39:58.500 the left all disagree with each other about what that world should look like. In other words, there are

00:40:06.000 lots of left-wing feminists who don't agree with a lot of what the LGBTQ plus community wants to do,

00:40:14.460 right? There are people who are sympathetic to radical Islam on the left. How does that fit in

00:40:21.740 with radical feminism on the left? None of this makes any sense. It's the schizophrenia of the left.

00:40:28.900 And they have no objective moral standard upon which to base their ideology. They have no way of knowing

00:40:37.240 what really is true and what really isn't true. What is a right and what really isn't right? Because

00:40:42.660 they essentially have rejected the foundations of Western civilization, meaning Judeo-Christianity

00:40:48.860 essentially, and the principles that have come from that, to the point where it just becomes an

00:40:53.780 argument with really no end. Yeah. And so while, but what's crazy about it is for whatever reason

00:41:00.440 that they believe in radical feminism or Black Lives Matters, or you name whatever the cause du jour is

00:41:06.400 on the left, whatever that is, in the East, they don't believe in any of them. No, they don't.

00:41:12.460 They don't believe in any of them. And neither do the elites, honestly. All of these people that are

00:41:17.780 giving these ESG scores, they might say that they do. But I think that that is, that's betrayed by

00:41:23.780 their allegiance to China. If they really cared about any of that, do you think that they would

00:41:26.940 be partnering with the regime that is colonizing Africa and has a million Muslims in a concentration

00:41:32.020 camp? Of course not. So they don't really care about that either. It's always about power. It's

00:41:36.380 always about more control. Those ESG scores, I think, allows them to do that in a way that seems

00:41:41.680 virtuous enough, not even just for the left in America, but for most Americans that view themselves as

00:41:47.360 tolerant, that they're just willing to go along with it. And tolerance, while it can be a beautiful

00:41:52.440 thing, especially when you have people that all have the same basic worldview and basic values,

00:41:58.300 it can also end up being, it can also end up being a bad thing because you're so tolerant,

00:42:06.480 so open-minded to anything that you are unable, as you were saying, to actually be able to distinguish

00:42:13.060 between virtue and virtue signaling or the truth and a lie. And we certainly see that when it comes

00:42:20.180 to, especially what kids today are learning and the confusion around sex and gender and morality

00:42:28.000 and reality, how postmodernism has really just kind of taken over. And I think that that plays into all

00:42:35.460 of this too, not just the self-loathing that comes from things like CRT and all of that, but also the

00:42:42.160 confusion that I think is wrought through progressive ideologies and postmodernism, rejecting what we know

00:42:50.620 about human nature, what we know about biology, what we know about public safety, for example,

00:42:56.460 the defunding the police, all of it just works together to destroy America from the inside so that

00:43:02.940 when the outside comes in, it's a lot easier to take us down. That's what I kind of see happening.

00:43:08.360 Yeah, I think there's no doubt about it whatsoever. And there are a lot of people on the left who

00:43:12.340 believe, who are, you talked about trading a little bit of, they're trading your freedom for a little

00:43:17.340 bit of security. What the left is doing is they're trading their entire future, the entire future of

00:43:23.620 America, including their own future and their own ideas and their own freedoms for a little bit of

00:43:28.760 wokeism. When in reality, what's going to happen is the system that they're allowing to exist, or in

00:43:34.260 some cases building and contributing to, is going to be eventually, if the dollar collapses, if the

00:43:42.480 United States is no longer the world's most powerful country, it's going to be taken over by people who

00:43:47.000 believe none of the things that these people believe. And as you said, you know, do you really

00:43:52.100 think the people who are colonizing Africa care about Black Lives Matters? No. Have you seen some of the

00:43:57.520 racist commercials that exist in China about African-Americans? I mean, these things are,

00:44:02.400 the culture there is totally different. And they are much more tolerant over there about

00:44:08.260 authoritarianism. The history of China, the history of the East is a battle of various kinds of

00:44:14.060 authoritarianism. That's all it is. They don't understand individual liberty the way we understand

00:44:20.100 individual liberty. And if we haven't learned our lesson from engaging in the West with the Middle East,

00:44:26.540 for example, where we've tried to nation build and we've tried to do all these things and get people

00:44:31.460 to adopt individual liberty, when in a lot of cases, depending on the place you're talking about,

00:44:36.880 those people didn't want that. They didn't believe in it. They had a religion that didn't allow for it

00:44:41.980 in some cases. And so if we're not, if we haven't learned our lesson from that, then we are going to

00:44:48.360 be in a huge, huge crisis at some point in the very near future, because we cannot just say to

00:44:54.540 ourselves, well, you know what, we're America and we're always going to be the most powerful

00:44:58.660 country in the world. And no one's ever going to pose any sort of threat to us. All of the evidence

00:45:03.560 suggests that we are on the road to losing that place and not being the global superpower. All the

00:45:09.200 evidence suggests that and throughout the history of world civilization, one empire after another has

00:45:15.060 fallen and now become essentially irrelevant. It can easily happen to us and it might take a little

00:45:21.220 bit longer. I don't know when it's going to happen, but if we don't change, if we don't change directions

00:45:27.280 now, if we don't get off this road we're on now, I am certain it is going to happen to us. Just given

00:45:33.340 enough time. And people on the progressive left, there are people who are outspoken about just not

00:45:48.520 liking America and they think, OK, well, it's fine that we're not the world superpower. You have no idea

00:45:54.000 what you are talking about, because if it's not us, it's going to be China. And as you've already laid

00:46:00.260 out so perfectly, they don't have the same values. They don't care about transgender stuff.

00:46:03.820 They don't care about Black Lives Matter. They don't care about critical race theory. They don't

00:46:06.640 care about equity. Certainly don't care about equity. They don't care about equality. They

00:46:10.760 certainly don't believe in free speech or freedom of religion. They don't believe in any of the things

00:46:15.940 that even people on the left in America still hold dear, even if they say that they don't like the

00:46:20.600 country. That's why I just don't have any tolerance for. I mean, yes, I do believe that we should talk

00:46:25.480 about the bad things that America has done. We should talk about injustice. That's one beautiful thing of

00:46:29.620 living in a free country, unlike China, where they try to cover up the bad things of their past and

00:46:33.980 present. We can talk about them openly and try to fix them. I think that's a beautiful thing about

00:46:38.040 America. So I'm fine with talking about all that. Kids should learn about slavery and all and Jim

00:46:43.280 Crow and all the terrible things that America has done. But people who try to delegitimize America

00:46:48.820 altogether by saying, well, we live on stolen land or America was really founded on white supremacy.

00:46:55.700 Like, do you know the history of the world? Do you know the history of every single country that

00:47:00.340 has ever lived that has been littered with way worse stuff even than the United States? I'm not

00:47:06.460 saying that that doesn't make some of the things that we have done bad. But I am saying that we need

00:47:11.940 to realize that, as you said, the entire world is basically a story of competing oppressors and the

00:47:18.980 oppressed. It's a story of competing tribes. It's a story of competing dictators, competing tyrants.

00:47:25.200 It's a story of bloodshed. It's a story of a boot stamping on people's faces forever until the

00:47:33.600 West and more specifically the United States. So do we have a lot of flaws? Yes, we do. But people who

00:47:40.880 just refuse to see that we are the exception and that it's good for us to be the world superpower and

00:47:47.520 not China, I just don't have any tolerance for that anymore because I know too much. And like you said,

00:47:52.400 we see where this is going. It's terrifying. It's not going to be a good world if America is not

00:47:59.760 the strongest. You talk about turning this around. Well, it seems like it feels like from hearing what

00:48:06.520 you're saying that we're totally powerless to do that. Why do they care about what you and I say?

00:48:10.100 They've got all the money and the capital and power in the world. How do we turn this around?

00:48:13.680 So this is going to be a little bit scary, what I'm about to say, but I'm going to be honest.

00:48:21.740 I think that the only hope we have to turn things around is to take advantage of a very small window

00:48:28.340 of time that we have right now where the system is not yet totally completely in place. Once the

00:48:34.300 system is totally and completely in place and there are clear international ESG standards and the money

00:48:40.900 is still flowing in and all of this, there is not going to be any way to turn this around.

00:48:45.640 It's not going to be possible. The only way to stop this in America, it's not possible to stop it

00:48:50.620 in Europe. I think it is a total done deal. In fact, the European Union earlier this year,

00:48:55.900 the European parliament, which is part of the European Union, voted to make a mandatory ESG system.

00:49:02.820 And if the European commission approves of this and they have to formally propose it and approve it,

00:49:08.240 which is expected to happen later this year and potentially early next year, then it is going to

00:49:13.540 become the law in the European Union that you have ESG standards and that companies that don't

00:49:19.260 comply with those ESG standards will get punished. And it's not just the companies in the European

00:49:24.000 Union. It's every company in the value chain for those companies. So any company that does business

00:49:30.100 with those companies, whether they're in the European Union or not, has to also go along with this ESG

00:49:34.700 system. So this is already happening in Europe. I don't think it's possible to save them at this

00:49:40.400 point in time. The only chance we have in America, because we're just a little bit behind Europe on

00:49:44.920 all of these things, is to get politicians in place who are going to make rules and regulations

00:49:51.140 that prevent these financial institutions from engaging in this whole crony system and from stopping

00:49:58.760 all of this rampant money printing from the Fed and the funneling of this money printing into these

00:50:04.040 elites and coffers and financial institutions that are willing to impose this ESG system that want to

00:50:09.900 impose it. That's the only thing that we can do. And so between now and the time that we put people

00:50:16.420 in place that will do that, hopefully, because Joe Biden and Democrats are not going to do it.

00:50:22.020 They are all part of this.

00:50:23.160 No, they're totally part of it. Even I'm just thinking about H.R. 1 federalizing elections to

00:50:28.380 make sure that no one can get put in place that will stop this kind of thing. And I don't think

00:50:34.180 that every single Democrat is consciously a part of it. I think that they genuinely think that they

00:50:38.820 are doing good for society and all that. I don't think that AOC and Cori Bush, you know, by having

00:50:44.860 their own private security, but advocating for defunding the police for irregular folk, I don't I don't

00:50:49.760 think that they are thinking about the Great Reset, but they are absolutely playing into it.

00:50:56.700 And by the way, it's not just Democrats. Don't you think that there are some Republicans that are

00:51:00.440 responsible for this kind of stuff, especially the Republicans that have their only policy has been

00:51:05.100 corporate tax cuts for the past 30 years?

00:51:08.980 Without without a doubt, there's no doubt about it whatsoever that Republicans have

00:51:13.460 completely played into this. This is not a Republican Democrat thing. This is not a

00:51:20.640 conservative liberal thing. You could be a socialist and not think that the global institution should be

00:51:26.420 making remaking society and in charge of everything. This is an elites versus everybody else kind of

00:51:32.720 thing. And there are elites in the Republican Party, just like there are elites in the Democrat Party

00:51:37.660 who are involved in all of this. Joe Biden and his administration is absolutely big supporters of

00:51:44.500 this. And the proof of that is John Kerry is an open supporter of the Great Reset. He's actually come

00:51:49.940 right out and said that he supports the Great Reset. And in November, after the presidential election was

00:51:54.420 over, John Kerry went to an event at the World Economic Forum. I think it was virtual. And they asked him,

00:52:00.500 the president of the World Economic Forum asked him about the Great Reset in America. And John Kerry

00:52:05.940 and asked if they were asking too much of Joe Biden to to, you know, create this Great Reset in America

00:52:11.960 really quickly. And John Kerry said, you're not asking too much of Joe Biden. The Great Reset is

00:52:17.760 going to happen and it's going to happen faster than anyone realizes, when with greater intensity

00:52:24.160 than anyone realizes. That's what John Kerry said when he was asked specifically about Joe Biden and the

00:52:29.160 Great Reset. And now John Kerry is in charge of climate policy for the White House. And he's in the

00:52:35.400 White House making these policies that are right in line with the Great Reset. Climate policy is

00:52:41.360 another one. They're part of it. Climate policy is another one. It is a John Kerry does not care

00:52:47.160 about the freaking climate. He would not be he would not be jetting about in his private jet.

00:52:54.240 Barack Obama would not have a house in Martha's Vineyard if we were really worried about the world

00:53:01.200 being ruined by by climate change. But they have fear mongered this so much that I think especially

00:53:07.040 the younger generation sees anything done in at least ostensibly to help climate change as good.

00:53:14.580 John Kerry doesn't care about this. All of these issues that the people at the top say that they

00:53:18.940 care about, they don't really care about. They don't care about. And I just think the people on the right

00:53:24.520 and the left are so quick to just kind of give in to every kind of social and political change that

00:53:29.440 happens in the name of equity and compassion and empathy and all of that without realizing it's

00:53:34.460 all about empowering people who don't care about your liberty. They don't care about your well-being.

00:53:39.740 And you also see how possibly policies that advocate for the breakdown of the family,

00:53:45.180 the loss of parental rights, policies that go after religious liberty, that go after religion in

00:53:49.480 general. I mean, always the history of dictatorships, especially in the 20th century,

00:53:54.240 has been going after the family unit and going after religion, going after patriotism,

00:53:59.840 definitely. These are values that really, they kind of stave off government encroachment because

00:54:07.260 if people are getting their values and they're getting their provision, they're getting their

00:54:10.720 security from a unit and institution that is not the government that controls them, well, that's a

00:54:16.760 problem for a government that does want to control you. And so it's all playing together.

00:54:22.960 And I'm kind of realizing all of this and it's super scary. And I don't really, I don't, I mean,

00:54:29.380 I don't know what to do about it. I know we put people in power, but what, I don't know what to do

00:54:33.620 on a daily basis. And I don't want people to leave feeling hopeless.

00:54:37.660 Yeah. I think that the best thing that people could do right now is, is to talk about it with

00:54:43.660 other people in a relatable way. And to start with people who are their friends and their family

00:54:48.860 members who are most likely to listen to them. And, and the reason I say that is because until

00:54:53.400 the system fully goes into place, there is, there is some pressure that can be put on these big

00:54:59.560 corporations, these big banks and others to avoid talking about this. Uh, you know, I, I know for a

00:55:07.100 fact, cause I've been working with, with Glenn, with Glenn Beck on a, on a book about the great reset for

00:55:11.260 like over a year now. And, uh, what some of the, there's been times where he and I have talked about

00:55:16.260 certain banking institutions on the air and how they're buying into this ESG system and how they're

00:55:21.140 going to use it to impose their will on other people. And we've had banks, big multi-billion dollar

00:55:28.680 banks, some of the biggest financial institutions in the world contact Glenn's people and say, uh, I can't

00:55:34.640 say, okay, cause we promised we wouldn't, but top five banks in the America talk to Glenn's people

00:55:41.780 and say, you know, you, you shouldn't talk about this. You're getting it all wrong. And then when we

00:55:47.200 would ask, well, what did we get wrong? They would say, well, you know, you're not getting the facts

00:55:50.660 wrong, but you know, all these things. They cared. They cared that you said something. They cared. And

00:55:55.560 that's the point. So they are still afraid that they're trying to, it's like, they're trying to rob a

00:56:00.940 bank. And the last thing you want to do if you're trying to rob a bank is have people on the

00:56:04.240 street say, Hey, is that guy trying to rob a bank? That's not what you want. What you want is just

00:56:08.420 get out. And that's what they're trying to do. They're trying to get out with the money as fast

00:56:11.820 as they possibly can. So if we can expose it, we might be able to slow it down long enough to get

00:56:16.700 politicians in place who will hopefully do the right thing. But it starts with slowing the process

00:56:22.360 down between now and the upcoming elections. Yeah. And all these little things matter. You don't

00:56:28.260 necessarily have to have a politician who every day is talking about the great reset, but all the

00:56:33.260 things that stand in the way of those elites doing what they want to do, everything that preserves

00:56:40.300 liberty and the family unit and religious liberty, all these things, even though they might not seem

00:56:44.680 like they have something to do with that great grand reset that might seem far off to people, but all

00:56:49.940 these things actually really do matter. And there's a couple other things I just want to ask you if

00:56:54.240 it's connected at all to this, or at least will be used to be connected to all of this. One is vaccine

00:56:59.900 passports. People, you know, are really nervous about that, that basically everyone is going to

00:57:05.300 have to have this app on their phone showing verification of vaccines. And we're not even

00:57:09.380 talking about your stance on vaccines, but vaccine passports. Does that play into this and just the

00:57:15.560 hopes of limiting people's freedom? Yeah, I think that vaccine passports are incredibly dangerous,

00:57:24.040 not because of the vaccine passport itself, but because, again, it's infrastructure that you're

00:57:30.400 building that you can use for other things in the future. And that's what all of this movement is all

00:57:37.020 about. It's about using technology and modern finance and money printing and other and regulations

00:57:42.500 to create an infrastructure that can then be expanded upon to use for other things. So if you can require

00:57:49.640 people to have an app that shows that you've been vaccinated, why can't you require people to have an app

00:57:56.120 that serves very similar function for things that have nothing to do with vaccinations, but maybe just

00:58:01.080 being healthy, maybe you can't go to a fast food restaurant, unless you have an, you know, permission on

00:58:08.680 your app that you've been exercising three times a week, you know, why can't they do things like that? In the

00:58:13.880 United Kingdom, they actually have health apps that are designed to try to encourage people to live a

00:58:18.980 healthier lifestyle that's rolled out by the NHS, the government health service over there. I mean,

00:58:25.240 these kinds of things can easily become authoritarian. And so do we want to wait for them to become

00:58:31.260 authoritarian before we oppose them? No, because by then it's too late. It's almost impossible to get

00:58:36.500 rid of them. You got to kill it before it becomes a huge problem. Why take the risk? We don't need

00:58:42.080 vaccine passports. Not really. So why take the risk that it poses to our individual rights? We have

00:58:48.660 to oppose all of these kinds of things in every way that we possibly can so that we can slow this

00:58:54.020 train down long enough to put people in place who will take it seriously and hopefully reverse it.

00:59:00.180 Yeah. Now your Twitter profile says that you are a libertarian federalist. When I hear libertarian,

00:59:07.100 I think just small government, but it seems like you're calling for it. I would be calling for

00:59:11.440 the federal government to step in in some of these areas and say, no, no, no, no, we're not going this

00:59:17.320 direction. What do you think? Well, I think what's interesting about this is that there are a lot of

00:59:23.340 libertarians who would argue that we should just let corporations do whatever they want, let banks do

00:59:28.360 whatever they want, because corporations and banks, they're private institutions. But the thing is,

00:59:34.220 they're not private institutions, not really, not in a truly free market sense. They are creations of

00:59:40.020 government. Corporations have different laws. They have different regulations. They pay different

00:59:45.580 taxes. They are literally an invention of the federal government. You file paperwork in states

00:59:51.500 and in and with the federal government to some extent to create new corporations and to pay certain

00:59:57.000 tax rates and to have limited liability so that you can't be punished for the things that your

01:00:01.100 businesses do. This isn't the same thing as some person who's a farmer that owns their own land and

01:00:06.940 or has a little restaurant or coffee shop or something that they own outright. That's not what we're

01:00:11.540 talking about here. We're talking about institutions who are essentially quasi-government or

01:00:18.420 government-sanctioned, at the very least, institutions with all kinds of special benefits

01:00:23.680 that they're surviving on and thriving on and becoming super rich on. Social media companies is a great

01:00:30.920 example of this. The idea that social media companies, these big gigantic corporations, should have the ability

01:00:36.300 to silence people based on their speech because they don't like their speech. We're not talking

01:00:41.080 about pornography or things like that. We're just talking about people who say things that they don't

01:00:45.340 like. Saying a man is a man. Yeah, exactly. Something you know about. I mean, the idea that that is

01:00:51.620 perfectly fine because they're a private institution and they have rights is completely nonsensical.

01:00:58.140 The only reason they are allowed to exist, the only reason that Twitter or Facebook exists,

01:01:04.300 is because we have special federal laws that allow them to escape liability when people go

01:01:09.620 on their platforms and say things that are obviously wrong. You can't go to Twitter and

01:01:14.500 sue Twitter for libel and slander and things like that because people on Twitter are saying things

01:01:20.320 that are factually incorrect about you. That's because we have special laws that allow these

01:01:25.140 companies to exist. Without those special laws from the federal government, these companies could not

01:01:30.780 exist. So they have all made billions and billions and billions of dollars off of the federal government

01:01:36.800 providing them with special protections. And then we're told they can do whatever they want.

01:01:41.200 They can silence anyone they want. Well, then what's to stop the federal government from,

01:01:45.280 in effect, creating a private institution that, I don't know, runs the power in society and then just

01:01:52.340 cuts off electricity from anybody who doesn't agree with them about, you know, whatever it happens to be.

01:01:57.760 I mean, that's fascism. That's fascism. And the very people who call themselves anti-fascist and think

01:02:06.200 that everyone on the right is fascist, they don't understand how actually, I mean, yes, Republican

01:02:11.380 politicians, as we've already noted, definitely play into this as well. But these woke corporations

01:02:17.560 are working together with the Democratic Party and the Democrats that are in power right now to be able to

01:02:23.040 not just secure their power even more, but also put these very onerous burdens on the public. And

01:02:29.540 you're, yes, sure, Twitter can't throw you into jail. And so it's not technically a violation of

01:02:34.540 the First Amendment, but it is creating a particular culture, a very self-censorious culture in which

01:02:41.860 really the principles of free speech and of liberty in general aren't really thriving. And I appreciate

01:02:47.660 what you said that libertarians, I think, in their truest sense, recognize that any concentration

01:02:53.140 of power, any abuse of power, whether it's in corporations or the government, is something that

01:02:58.080 we should be resisting. It's not, OK, only if they are an elected official. All kinds of abuses of power

01:03:05.740 matter because they affect people's lives. Last thing I think I want to ask you about,

01:03:11.600 last thing, do you have an opinion on Bitcoin, cryptocurrency, you know, as a hedge against

01:03:19.360 the collapse of the dollar? Like, how do you think that plays into this? I'm sure some people are

01:03:23.260 wondering that. Yeah, sure. So in full transparency, I do own some Bitcoin and I do own some cryptocurrencies.

01:03:31.800 I think that it's very possible that the dollar is going to collapse. And it's not entirely clear

01:03:39.460 when that happens what the best way is to hedge against the dollar collapsing. There are people

01:03:45.600 that believe that you should buy gold. There are people who believe that you should buy cryptocurrencies.

01:03:49.840 There are people who believe that you should buy property. I personally think that if I had lots

01:03:54.920 and lots of money, I'd put it in everything. That's a hard asset. I'd put it in including in cryptocurrency,

01:04:00.160 which is kind of a hard asset, because I believe the existing system is going to collapse.

01:04:06.080 And unless you diversify your wealth, and I'm not a financial advisor or anything like that. But

01:04:11.460 unless you diversify your wealth, you're putting yourself in a very, very risky situation. Because

01:04:17.920 at the end of the day, the big gigantic financial institutions, the big corporations, foreign countries,

01:04:24.500 they are putting their money in gold, they're putting their money in silver, they're putting their

01:04:28.220 money in mines, they're putting money in farms. As you said, Bill Gates, one of the richest people in

01:04:32.340 the world, he's buying up massive amounts of farmland, they're buying hard assets, including

01:04:37.520 cryptocurrency. And so I think that if they're doing that, it's probably a good idea for regular

01:04:42.680 people to do it, too, because there's a really good chance that they know something that we don't

01:04:47.420 know. Yeah. And I think the more that I've learned about this whole thing, the more confident I am that

01:04:51.900 eventually the dollar is going to collapse. And I don't want to be left penniless when that happens.

01:04:57.900 Yeah. Okay, actually, a couple more things. Eviction moratorium. Do you think that that is

01:05:04.520 a purposeful attack on property owners and on, you know, middle working class landlords in the same

01:05:15.280 way that, you know, companies like BlackRock buying these properties, turning them to rental property

01:05:20.900 is actually preventing the working class from, you know, creating equity and wealth? Do you think

01:05:26.040 that those things are working together? Are they similar? It is impossible to know for sure

01:05:33.580 whether it's deliberately being put into place in order to help further this whole concentration of

01:05:41.380 property in the hands of corporations. But what I do know is this, it is helping that whole thing.

01:05:46.580 There's no doubt about it whatsoever. And when Joe Biden, you know, extends the eviction moratorium

01:05:52.540 in certain areas. The fact that we had an eviction moratorium in the first place, that was without a

01:05:58.960 doubt screwing over landlords who are just regular people who owned a second property or a third

01:06:05.180 property or something like that. And we're using renting it out. That's 70% of landlords in the

01:06:09.900 United States, by the way, 70% of rental properties are owned by landlords with just one or two properties

01:06:15.320 that's just trying to feed their families. It's not some, you know, rich miserly guy at the head of a

01:06:20.500 corporation. They're just regular working class people.

01:06:23.940 Right. And the corporations, they can absorb that loss for a little while. That's not a problem for

01:06:29.280 them. They can say, OK, yeah, some people won't pay our rent. And yeah, we'll lose money this quarter,

01:06:33.620 maybe next quarter, maybe the quarter after that. But that's OK. Eventually, this property is going to

01:06:38.000 be worth lots of money. Eventually, we're going to get our money back. And we don't have to worry about

01:06:42.380 any of this. And we also know that if we really need money, if we ever really start running out of

01:06:47.000 money, we could just go to the banks and they're going to give us lots of money for low interest

01:06:50.500 rates. So it doesn't really matter. Regular people who are landlords who own these properties and are

01:06:55.900 just trying to survive and use them as income, those people can't do that. They just lose their

01:07:01.720 property. They just lose the value of their homes. They just end up getting screwed as a result of this.

01:07:07.200 So whether this is an intentional plan, I don't know. Unlike some of the other stuff we talked about

01:07:12.480 before, I've never heard anyone talk about it in a way that would make it sound like it's

01:07:16.960 intentional. But if it isn't intentional, it's having the exact same effect as if it were

01:07:22.100 intentional. So in a way, it almost doesn't matter. Right. Just quickly, just to name another

01:07:28.360 boogeyman in addition to Bill Gates, who, as I say, if you don't want to be at the center of all

01:07:34.460 these conspiracy theories, not that this is, but other conspiracy theories, then don't be so sketchy.

01:07:39.280 Don't be so sketchy. He's so sketchy. And the same thing with George Soros. People say that he's a

01:07:44.740 right-wing boogeyman. The dude is sketchy. He's doing a lot of stuff. Does he have anything to do

01:07:49.320 with any of the things that we've been talking about? Yeah, without a doubt. George Soros is

01:07:54.540 actually famous for hanging out in Davos. He hosts a really elaborate dinner party there every year

01:08:00.660 where it's like the most elite event that you could possibly get into. Only the elites of the elites

01:08:05.480 are allowed to do that. George Soros is also, strangely, one of the primary funders of the

01:08:12.420 Marxist left here in the United States who supposedly want to eat the rich. The whole Black Lives Matters

01:08:18.960 movement, the organization itself, which is openly calling for the destruction of the family, which

01:08:24.260 is called for Marxism and the collective ownership of property, all the things that you would think the

01:08:29.100 Davos people wouldn't like, they are owned by the Tides Foundation. And one of the largest donors to

01:08:36.060 the Tides Foundation is George Soros. So George Soros is hanging out with the Davos people while

01:08:42.080 funding Marxists in the streets at the same time. It makes you think that he's probably got a plan here.

01:08:48.900 It's create lots of chaos, take advantage of that chaos through these other policies. So yeah,

01:08:54.740 absolutely George Soros and people like him, I think are involved. And also helping the DAs across

01:09:00.780 the country, progressive DAs across the country that are put in place that are for defunding the

01:09:04.900 police, they're for bail reform, they're for so-called criminal justice reform that really just ends up

01:09:10.360 putting murders, violent criminals back into the streets, committing more crime, creating chaos and

01:09:15.420 disarray. And just the destruction of some of America's most beautiful cities have now really

01:09:21.060 spiraled out of control. It's not just because of George Soros, it's also just because of policies

01:09:26.240 independent of him. But certainly his organization has funded the campaigns of a lot of the people who

01:09:33.260 are making these policies and making sure that America's greatest and most powerful and most

01:09:38.340 profitable cities are destroyed by crime and homelessness and public drug use and all of that.

01:09:45.040 And we're only, and it's such a distraction, not that COVID doesn't matter and that it's not real,

01:09:49.540 because it does. I know people who have been very seriously impacted by it. But you can see how

01:09:54.640 it's at the very least being used as an excuse to distract us from other very pressing, important

01:10:00.900 issues. And it's also being used as an excuse, of course, to accumulate power. And man, this is the

01:10:07.180 stuff of like, if you don't want people to go down the rabbit holes of conspiracy theories of thinking

01:10:12.860 the election was stolen and thinking that Joe Biden is really just a plant so that people

01:10:19.360 could elect this, you know, middle of the road, Joe, so all the great reset stuff could go on behind

01:10:25.060 the scenes. I mean, and or that coronavirus was purposely created and released from the lab to,

01:10:31.500 to, you know, wreak all of this destruction and chaos. I mean, I'm not saying that all that stuff is

01:10:38.060 true. I'm just saying I can see how people would get there based on what is absolutely true, right?

01:10:44.580 Yeah, without a doubt. It's really easy to go down that rabbit hole when you look at the money and

01:10:53.200 you look at how rich these people are getting and you look at the policies that they're putting in

01:10:57.120 place and you look at the quotes that they're saying, the mountain of direct quotes of them

01:11:01.180 talking about fundamentally transforming the world and pushing the reset button on the global economy.

01:11:06.880 And every country must participate, including China and the United States, including people like

01:11:12.480 Justin Trudeau, Justin Trudeau, nice guy, you know, not a radical. Of course he is. But he said that

01:11:19.760 outright. He said we need a great reset. Yeah. Oh, basically, the entire G7 has at one point or

01:11:25.800 another called directly for a great reset. The head of the United Nations, head of the International

01:11:30.540 Monetary Fund. These people are all these major institutions are openly talking this way.

01:11:35.920 And so, yeah, it's really easy to look at those things and say, well, geez, if they're doing this

01:11:41.340 and this is just the stuff we know that they're saying and this is just the stuff we know they're

01:11:44.840 spending money on and this is just the strategies we know about. What are the things we don't know

01:11:48.580 about? Right. And it's really easy to get lost in this because the truth is we don't know everything

01:11:54.220 they're doing and we never will know everything we're doing because people like you and I are not

01:11:58.640 invited to the dinner parties with George Soros in Davos, unfortunately. They're just we're not welcome

01:12:04.780 there. So we're never going to know all of the answers. But I don't need to know more than I

01:12:10.400 already know. What I already know makes it difficult to fall asleep at night. I don't want to know more

01:12:15.480 than this. Right. And just knowing what we know now is enough to it should be enough for people to be

01:12:22.020 concerned that we have to change directions or else we're totally screwed. Yeah. Wokeness is being

01:12:28.740 used as the vehicle to destroy the institutions in the West so the West can be, you know, minimized,

01:12:36.200 belittled, made small so that it will easily conform to either, like you said, the power of China or the

01:12:44.340 power of these elites. And once if we get there, which I pray to God that we don't, they're going

01:12:51.280 to abandon all of these woke values. And gosh, we haven't even talked about how the military and

01:12:57.860 the intelligence agencies in the United States are also being overtaken by that destructive,

01:13:02.120 divisive stuff, which will also help lead to our demise. So this has been a very positive, optimistic

01:13:07.580 episode. Thank you so much. If this doesn't red pill people, I don't know what will. How can people

01:13:14.220 support you, follow you and all that good stuff? Sure. They can go to stopping socialism dot com or follow

01:13:20.020 me on social media. Justin T. Haskins on just about everything. Facebook, socialist Twitter,

01:13:25.440 parlor, everything that you can think of. Okay. Thanks so much, Justin. Thanks, Allie.

01:13:34.840 All right. I promised that I would give you guys a little bit of encouragement after that. What did I

01:13:39.320 tell you? What did I tell you? That was a big conversation. I know, but I'm reminding you that

01:13:44.880 there is no power, um, that can thwart God's ultimate sovereign will. There is nothing that

01:13:50.940 can stop him from coming back and ruling in perfect justice and peace. There's nothing and no one that

01:13:56.380 can stop him from exacting, uh, perfect justice. He will destroy, uh, the wicked. He will destroy the

01:14:03.800 evildoers. So I'm going to, uh, read you just two segments, uh, one from Psalm two and one from Psalm

01:14:10.540 37 that I want you to take it and meditate on and realize, um, is the ultimate truth. That's bigger

01:14:17.440 than everything that we talked about today. Um, so first Psalm two, why do the nations rage and the

01:14:23.660 people's plot in vain? The Kings of the earth set themselves and the rulers take counsel together

01:14:29.080 against the Lord and against his anointed saying, let us burst their bonds apart and cast away their

01:14:35.200 cords from us. But he who sits in the heavens laughs, the Lord holds them in derision. Then he

01:14:41.640 will speak to them in his wrath and terrify them in his fury saying, as for me, I have set my king on

01:14:48.500 Zion, my holy hill. And so God is in charge. He laughs at the ones who think that they are in power.

01:14:56.980 Um, he is holding the people who think that they are in charge in derision. And he realizes that they

01:15:03.460 don't recognize that he is ultimately in control of everything. And then here are some segments from

01:15:09.260 Psalm 37. My favorite Psalm is so calming to me and gives me so much peace. So Psalm 37, starting in

01:15:15.500 verse one, fret, not yourself because of evil doers be not envious of wrongdoers for they will soon fade

01:15:22.120 like the grass and wither like the green herb trust in the Lord and do good dwell in the land and

01:15:28.620 befriend faithfulness, delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.

01:15:34.100 Commit your way to the Lord, trust in him, and he will act. He will bring forth your righteousness as

01:15:39.380 the light and your justice as the noon day. Be still before the Lord, wait patiently for him,

01:15:45.700 fret not yourself over the one who prospers in his way over the man who carries out evil devices.

01:15:51.680 I could read this entire chapter. It's all relevant to what we were just, uh, talking about. Um,

01:15:57.420 I would encourage you to read on it, to meditate on it, to pray about it, to receive it as, uh,

01:16:05.280 true and remember God's work and what he is doing doesn't always make headlines. We don't see

01:16:10.760 everything that God is doing, but he is the only one that is omniscient. He's the only one that's

01:16:15.520 omnipotent. He's the only one that's omnipresent. Um, all human beings, even the most powerful and

01:16:20.500 rich human beings, uh, even the most powerful corporations, they're just finite. There is no match for

01:16:26.460 God. There's no match for God. And as, um, his children, we can rest in that. That doesn't mean

01:16:32.740 that there won't be scary times. There won't be, uh, suffering that is upcoming because I think that

01:16:38.160 we know that that's true, but we can trust in him. We can hope in him. And our responsibility is not

01:16:44.380 just to sit on our hands and fret. Um, it is to obey him and to be bolder than ever in sharing the

01:16:50.280 gospel and loving our neighbor as we love ourself. And again, speaking up for that, which we know

01:16:55.860 is good and right and true. Um, that's all I've got for you today. Uh, I hope that it ended on an

01:17:02.940 encouraging and empowering note for you guys. And I will see you back here tomorrow.
