  1. Catherine..I assure you that Trump still has a very large base here in California (shock); but his hands are tied. His own party has never supported him, and Putin was the FIRST to call him after the election. What was a polite gesture was turned into a circus. The man is totally alone , and doing his best. He is used to “dealing” in business, and Pelosi is so ignorant of that fact. She did not “win’, and I assure everyone; that if she refuses to negotiate anything; he has something else up his sleeve! In regards to L.L.Bean,.. I returned a sweater the day before Christmas for an exchange. That was on December 24th. It is now January 27th, and I still do not have it. Their service has deteriorated this last year, and they cannot seem to hire capable help. If they do not rally; they will sadly be toast!….enjoying all the comments and the wonderful interviews. So grateful ….

    1. Wow. Sorry to hear that about LL Bean. Sounds like they need to pull back more into Main. Overextended.

      Trump allowed FASAB 56. Combined with his push for privatization – bad sign. Not do say I don’t appreciate all the good things he has done. If you look at the Trump Report card, I do.

      1. I am in agreement with you. I do not always understand what is in his mind. He will go out of his way the next 3 weeks to work with the Dems on the wall..if they do not try to negotiate with him; a can of “woop” will be opened. I think you have been much more fair in your assessment of Trump than many of your guests have been. I believe we need a border wall in many areas here, Texas and Arizona. Without borders; there is no nation for us. California has a real problem right now.

  2. Dear Catherine

    I’d just like to ask a few questions and share some thoughts.

    Do you know if anyone has followed up on your and Dr Skidmore’s brilliant research on the missing trillions from DoD and HUD and looked into missing money from any of the other agencies? There are so many agencies out there I am sure there is much more missing money out there and that what you have already uncovered is just the tip of the iceberg.

    On a few occasions (for example in Money & Markets of 6th Dec and in your interview with Harry Blazer) you’ve mentioned the 3 groups which are competing and cooperating: the Old WASP-Freemasons vs. the Vatican vs the Zionists. I am familiar with the basic structure of the Masons and of the Vatican but what is the structure of the Zionists? What exactly is the Zionist group and who is in charge of it? Is it the various grand rabbis? Is it the Israeli government? Or is it one of the various organisations such as the Jewish Defense League or the B’nai Brith?

    In “Ask Catherine” a fellow Fitts Fan mentioned the documentary “China Hustle”. I highly recommend it too but I fear that it may be interpreted as an example of China bashing. It’s not that simple, not a case of the good guys vs the bad guys. In this story there are no heroes, and in truth neither side comes out looking particularly good.

    When you talk about the importance of the rule of law, in my experience, the “rule of law” is actually the “rule of who can afford the law”. If you can afford the best and best-connected attorneys and can afford the time it takes for the wheels of “justice” to move, then you win.

    On the other hand, my experience with the Asian concept of a good businessman is that they see the difference between a “good” businessman and a “bad” businessman as simply that a good businessman cheats and gets away with it whereas a bad businessman cheats and gets caught.

    Asian companies tend to see payroll as an option. The logic there seems to be that if you’re stupid enough to work for them and trust them then you deserve to get ripped off. Three different institutions in Asia tried not to pay me for work I had done. In one case I kept the exam papers and final grades until I got paid. In another, I contacted a lawyer. She demanded payment in advance. After she got the cash she didn’t do anything. The local bar association ignored my subsequent complaint.

    I was teaching business at a university in Singapore. In my class was a large contingent of students from India. We did a simulation exercise and even though this was a “game” the Indian students openly tried to bribe the “judge” and as part of their strategy to improve their cash-flow they didn’t pay their bills or honour their agreements both oral and written, considering all this behavior to be part of normal business practice and being a clever businessman.

    On another occasion, when I told the students about the LL Bean lifetime guaranty, they all laughed. They thought it was ridiculous and could not fathom that everybody wouldn’t claim a refund and that the company would soon go out of business.

    I read recently that LL Bean has dropped their lifetime guaranty and replaced it with a 1-year guaranty. I think that speaks volumes for the current state of affairs.

    All things considered, I am feeling less than positive about the future. Listening to you gives me hope. Thank you.

    1. Andrew:

      Good questions about the Zionists. I have not researched. I will dig in to look at who has. My impression is that it is quite organic and fluid and organizes around pools of capital – and like the other groups control of the organized crime and money laundering flows.

      I am more familiar with the Masons. It is also on my list to dig into the Vatican further. I agree with your assessment of China Hustle – there is a much deeper story. We are going to have to grapple with dealing with large populations here and around the world that are committed to fraud. It is one of the reasons that I keep stressing the importance of limiting your life to people and institutions that are trustworthy.

      So sad to hear about LL Bean. It does speak volumes. I am positive about the future. We are going through a change and the cultural and monetary debasement that comes with new technology and globalization. Its like a wave – it will roll over all of us and every thing. You don’t need to go with the flow, but you do need to know how to bob and weave.

    2. Dr. Skidmore’s students started to look at NASA as there were reports of UA there – but did not find anything. It would be a good exercise to go through all of the other agencies. Its a big job – perfect for public finance or accounting graduate students. I don’t know of anyone taking it on. Question is whether or not we will learn more by going deeper on HUD and DOD to see what is going on. My vote is going deep on HUD will tell us the most.

  3. Dear Catherine
    Please feature a link on your Daily Solari to your recent interview with Jeff Rense, “What Can I Do?” which I found on YouTube.
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LGwdaUFSM0U
    (I loved when you told him, “Oh, grow up!”).
    I’m sure your readers will enjoy it. Full of so many good ideas. Wonderful advice about starting the morning in peace. So true. Completely inspiring!

    1. Andrew:

      I think I had it up and then moved it off when I added Dr. Skidmore. Will see if I can squeeze on another one. Glad you liked it!

      Catherine

      1. Thanks for the heads-up on that recording, Andrew (and Catherine), it really is darn good, and thanks for beating the drum of “build community”.

        “Effort is human dignity”

  4. When your heroes become zeros, you need a new paradigm!!

    This is what occurred to me when I realized that 9/11 was something other than the official story. And this again comes to mind after listening to this week’s Solari offerings. Today is the day I stopped believing that Trump really wants to MAGA. Mueller is STILL out of control, Marines out and the Bushies are IN, no wall, no State of the Union (could have held a SOTU rally with 50,000 people in a stadium), no arrests (except for Roger Stone??), no recouping of the $21 trillion and especially FASB 56 going thru with all of its implications. I could go on but for me, today, Trump is a zero – just a team captain for another group of pro-centralizers wanting their cut of the harvest. He’s losing his base and the other side is even worse …

    I feel played (again). Nothing is really changing for Americans … just new faces with new labels making new promises – with the same poor results. I continue to create a wonderful life but today one of my heroes just became a big zero.

    Hero to zero.

    Onward …

    PS Amazing trio of Solari’s this week. Thank you!!

    1. Dave:

      There is another possibility. That is that Trump is doing what he can within a highly centralized machinery that will not allow him to do much. I continue to believe that Trump is better than what the alternative would have been. I think what I am speaking to is the impossibility of anyone getting into that position that can anything done. The danger of the Bushies taking over is indeed that they know how to get things done. FASAB is a perfect example of knowing how to manipulate the money and legal machinery. Very Cheney-esque. There is no doubt that GHWB as VP + team during Reagan mastered and built an internal empire through the intelligence and legal bureaucracy that could make the elephant dance for their financial fraud. Question is what were they in such a rush to finance – watch Harvard Endowment, and Yale and the other Ivy League Endowments.

      Catherine

      1. Agree with CAF. The first reformer is the most imperfect, but he has to get in under the existing regime. He can pave the way for better exemplars if he can establish momentum. That’s why we need to support Trump. He’s not THEM.

        Gorbachev wasn’t perfect, but he’s the one who was able to open the door to change. Let the perfect among us cast stones. The rest should work to right the ship of state before it shatters on the Inchape rock of totalitarianism.

          1. That says it all. This is the quote under Federal Finances – The Law section at the 2018 Annual Wrap Up https://hudmissingmoney.solari.com/us-federal-finances-the-law/

            “William Roper: So, now you give the Devil the benefit of law!
            Sir Thomas More: Yes! What would you do? Cut a great road through the law to get
            after the Devil?
            William Roper: Yes, I’d cut down every law in England to do that!
            Sir Thomas More: Oh? And when the last law was down, and the Devil turned ’round
            on you, where would you hide, Roper, the laws all being flat? This country is planted
            thick with laws, from coast to coast, Man’s laws, not God’s! And if you cut them down,
            and you’re just the man to do it, do you really think you could stand upright in the winds
            that would blow then? Yes, I’d give the Devil benefit of law, for my own safety’s sake!”
            ~ From Roger Bolt’s A Man for All Seasons

            Never understood exactly how the guys who tore up the law to do this thought they were going to have the benefit of the law to protect the security of themselves and their families.

        1. Could not agree more. Amen, and Amen, and Amen!

          Potus 45 is navigating the possible. Let’s take action in all aspects of our life to push out the boundaries of the possible. This is ours to do. If we were each willing to expend 10% of the time, resources and courage that Potus 45 has done and incur 10% of the risk he and his family have incurred there would be a enormous wave that will enable him and many good people in the machinery who do not want totalitarianism to do significantly more.

      2. Things look so murky right now… I lean towards your take on it, but the “neo-con creep” is continuing, with Elliot Abrams now coming into Dept of State… the steady resurgence of the PNAC crew is troubling… and I hope it isn’t a surrender to moving directly onto a war footing.

        Given how Bill Kristol openly detests POTUS, the arrival of Bolton and now Abrams into the administration is troubling.

        Chris Hedges (who I disagree with on nearly everything politically, but who has great insight to the zeitgeist of politics and war, and a deep moral conscience) wrote a book in 2002, “War is a Force Which Gives Us Meaning”.

        Wars are universally magnetic in attracting the attention of the polity. Their capacity to draw attention and polarize focus into “externalizing danger” are truly archetypical.

        I sure hope starting another major conflict as a distraction from the “Rape of Russia” game plan isn’t what we are looking at.

        Thank you for the regular reminders that “having Faith” is not having faith in the machines capacity to cause trouble. I have been paying way less attention to the political chicanery, and making more room for what matters lately.

        I respect and admire your capacity for keeping perspective on God and Faith. “Fear porn” is built into human doubt.

        At any rate, I hope I can get my relocation to Oklahoma done before summer!

        1. All sides of the spectrum and media in Washington and empire central can not imagine a way to survive economically without war. They have a deep commitment about what. It is exactly what Wilkerson warned before the 2016 election. Neither candidate can pull us out of it. Red button problem.

    1. Italy has the power and potential to tear the EU apart. Meantime, Macron and Merkel are arranging for a great increase in arms sales for a European army. On one side, the weapons manufacturers and the banks. On the other side a wide group of people who want a peace economy and a human civilization. The Italians BTW are reported to have the highest IQ of any nation in Europe.

      1. Oddly enough, Italy has changed it’s gun laws recently, and relaxed them significantly… Italians will soon legally be able to own “the most popular sporting rifle in American history”.

        The AR-15. AND, access to “high capacity” magazines. I re-read that when I read it. Fascinating what is happening in Italy.

        1. Yes. Will be there in March for our Leanardo da Vinci filming and then in July for 2 weeks. Very curious to learn more.

  5. RE: Africa… Have you read Obianuju Ekeocha’s book TARGET AFRICA? It’s a very well written book about the West’s efforts to exact Neo-Colonial policies on Africn populations through large scale implementation of birth control, abortion, and sex education programs. As Obianuju points out, if we want to help Africa there are plenty of productive ways to do it besides trying to re-engineer the strong conservative and religious social structures typical of African nations. It is maddening to learn about our arrogant efforts to export the worst and most corrupt aspects of our culture to Africa and our utter insensitivity to Africa’s pro-family societies. Makes me wonder if there isn’t some other agenda at work. Anyway, I highly recommend this book. It’s a great read and a real eye-opener.

    1. Have not heard of it. I will check it out. The goal of our policies in Africa is a land and resource grab. That is why we have an African Command in the US Army. Competition with China is fierce. One of the reasons Obama was so successful is he put a marvelous face for our continued promotion of genocide and tapeworming cheap natural resources there.

    1. The best defense is a good offense. The way to shut down dissent against a radical government reengineering is to simply attack the population on audits and investigations. This was a game that I had to play in the 1990’s.

      One possibility is that Planatir or similar IT contractors may be compensated by a % of the fines, civil and criminal money penalties and audit recaptures in their software. Also lots of money likely will be spread around to pay human snitches. The amount of shadow work that can be generated from these activities is extraordinary.

      Please make sure your bookkeeping and compliance is perfect. There are no secrets.

  6. Catherine-

    I’m trying to understand the uprising in Greece. From what I gather NATO wants Macedonia to be part of the EU. Maybe to grow the EU army? The name change falls into Dr. Farrell’s theme of culture. Why are they reacting the way they are? It seems more violent than the yellow vest in France. Unless, they are upset with the decline of their standard of living and the destruction of their culture.

    What do you think?

    1. Don’t know. I would need to see the sources and uses of fund as well as be able to estimate who is financing covert interventions.

  7. Dear Catherine, regarding the yellow vests & markets::::I wonder:::: could the yellow vests be suffering from “gold exodus-itis” among other globalist rendered maladies. ronan manly of bullion star recently wrote about the banque de france having its coming-out (so to speak) party with JPM. turns out banque de france is/has been heavily involved in lend/lease operations (guided by experienced hands in the trusted house of morgan). assuming they subscribe to the usual “gold receivables”, rehypothecation accounting gimmicks, do you think it is fair to wonder whether Russia (and perhaps other central banks) are sourcing the excess physical supply their domestic producers cannot provide from the French treasure chest? after all, i think we can safely surmise the bullion banks have already tapped 1) canada, 2) U.K., 3) Switzerland, 4) USA (?),…metals prices are contained, so those in stealth accumulation mode must still be getting satisfied… where there’s smoke…final note: the protestors themselves may not be at all cognizant of potential ramifications of their CB’s lend/lease operations, but it may be an intuition their vitality is being siphoned/drained that compels them into the streets with ever greater fervor despite ratcheted up gaza style policing…brutal videos coming out of people suffering at hands of their brothers/sisters in blue… tyia!

  8. In my opinion if a extraterrestrial discovered that one nation had superior space based
    technology they would want to equalize that knowledge ,so no one nation would be able to
    superimpose on another, unless they found one nation as indispensable.
    So would it be possible to say that maybe the US has such technology but was unable to
    utilize it?

    1. If we are dealing with extraterrestials and/or cryptoterrestials, it is likely we are dealing with multiple and possibly competing species. So there would not just be one “they.” So the competition would be between combinations of human/ET factions.

  9. From a European perspective, the very idea of a “government shutdown” in inconceivable. But even in MSM the picture that it is just a duel between the two parties is beginning to crack.
    Oh, and isn’t it funny how the things of concern to the “Deep State” don’t get “shut down” for even a second!

    1. It is not a shutdown. It is a reorganization. Question is how apparent that will become.
