Why Trump REALLY Chose Kevin Warsh to Run the Fed | Simply Originals · Simply Bitcoin

• 0:00
  The next chairman of the Federal Reserve, the most powerful
• 0:03
  economic position on the planet, appeared on Jeffrey Epstein's
• 0:08
  guest list. He sat on the steering committee
• 0:13
  of the Bilderberg Group. He's a member of the Group of
• 0:16
  30. His father-in-law is a
• 0:18
  billionaire who gave Trump the idea to buy Greenland.
• 0:23
  And he has over 100 million in investments he initially refused
• 0:28
  to disclose. His name is Kevin Walsh.
• 0:31
  He'll be sworn in within days. And I'm going to show you
• 0:34
  exactly why that should matter to every single person watching
• 0:38
  this. But here's the twist.
• 0:40
  By the this video, I'm going to explain why this might actually
• 0:43
  be the most bullish thing that's ever happened for Bitcoin. 2
• 0:52
  days ago, Jerome Powell held his final press conference as Fed
• 0:56
  chair. Rates held at 3.5 to 3.75%.
• 1:00
  He congratulated Kevin Walsh on advancing through the Senate
• 1:03
  Banking Committee. He was calm.
• 1:06
  He was measured. Classic Powell.
• 1:08
  But here's what people missed. Powell isn't leaving the Fed.
• 1:12
  His chairmanship ends May 15th, but his seat on the Board of
• 1:16
  Governors doesn't expire until January of 2028.
• 1:21
  He's staying, which means for the first time in 80 years of
• 1:24
  former Fed chair will be sitting on the board while the new chair
• 1:29
  tries to run things. Why?
• 1:31
  Because the Department of Justice opened a criminal
• 1:34
  investigation into Powell over a headquarters renovation project.
• 1:38
  Powell himself called it, and I'm quoting here, a pretext to
• 1:42
  force him to lower rates. Now, remember that detail, the
• 1:46
  DOJ investigation into Powell, because it's going to become
• 1:49
  very relevant when we talk about leverage.
• 1:53
  That's the playbook. So who is Kevin Walsh and why
• 1:56
  did Donald Trump handpick this particular man to control the
• 2:00
  money supply of the most powerful economy in the world?
• 2:04
  Let's start at the beginning. And I promise you, where this
• 2:06
  story ends is not where you think it's going.
• 2:11
  Kevin Maxwell Walsh was born April 13th, 1970, in Albany, NY,
• 2:16
  the youngest of three kids. His father, Robert, ran a
• 2:18
  children's clothing shop in upstate New York.
• 2:21
  His mother, Judith, was a journalist, went to Cornell and
• 2:24
  Harvard, Solidly middle class, nothing flashy.
• 2:27
  His high school classmates described him as a regular kid
• 2:30
  who played tennis. He went to Stanford for public
• 2:33
  policy, then Harvard Law School. He went to Stanford for public
• 2:37
  policy. Harvard Law School, at his
• 2:39
  father's insistence, graduated cum laude.
• 2:42
  In 1996, he joined Morgan Stanley's Mergers and
• 2:46
  acquisitions department. He was there on September 11th,
• 2:49
  2001. Witnessed the towers collapse
• 2:52
  from Morgan Stanley's headquarters.
• 2:54
  He said that experience is what pushed him from Wall Street into
• 2:58
  government. And in 2002, at just 32 years
• 3:01
  old, George W Bush brought him into the White House as special
• 3:05
  assistant to the president for economic policy.
• 3:08
  Now, so far, sounds like a pretty standard American success
• 3:12
  story, right? Smart kid, good schools, works
• 3:15
  hard, gets into the White House. But there's a detail I skipped,
• 3:19
  and it changes everything. In 2002, the same year he joined
• 3:23
  the Bush White House, Kevin Walsh married a woman named Jane
• 3:27
  Lauder. Jane is the granddaughter of
• 3:31
  Estee Lauder, the founder of the $20 billion cosmetics empire.
• 3:35
  Her father is Ronald Lauder, whose net worth is roughly 3.5
• 3:40
  billion. Now here's where you need to
• 3:42
  remember a name. Ronald Lauder.
• 3:44
  Because Ronald Lauder is not just a billionaire, he's the
• 3:49
  president of the World Jewish Congress.
• 3:51
  He's a former U.S. ambassador to Austria.
• 3:55
  And most importantly for our story, he's been personal
• 3:58
  friends with Donald Trump since they were in college together.
• 4:02
  Decades of friendship, Politico. Any time someone has a
• 4:06
  connection to someone who's powerful or famous, it matters
• 4:08
  immensely to Donald Trump. And that's from Trump biographer
• 4:12
  Tim O'Brien. Lauder donated 5 million to a
• 4:16
  pro Trump super PAC, he's a regular at Mora Lago, and he's
• 4:20
  the man who, according to John Bolton, first planted the idea
• 4:24
  of buying Greenland in Trump's head.
• 4:26
  Oh, and since suggesting the US buy Greenland, Lotter has,
• 4:30
  according to the Guardian, acquired commercial holdings in
• 4:34
  Greenland, and the New York Times reported he recently
• 4:37
  secured A Ukrainian lithium mining contract worth hundreds
• 4:40
  of millions. So when the Jerusalem Post ran
• 4:43
  their headline, they didn't lead with Warsh's name, they led with
• 4:47
  Ronald Lauder's son-in-law nominated as Fed chair.
• 4:51
  That gives you a little bit of a new perspective, seeing how
• 4:53
  others see you in a way. But this is just the first
• 4:57
  layer. Because once Kevin Walsh married
• 4:59
  into the Lauder dynasty and moved to the Federal Reserve in
• 5:03
  2006, the real connection started the Fed years.
• 5:08
  In 2006, at just 35, Walsh became the youngest Fed governor
• 5:12
  in history, Bernanke's right hand man in the room for Bear
• 5:16
  Stearns, Lehman Brothers, AIG. He and Tim Geithner personally
• 5:21
  negotiated the deal, converting Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley
• 5:25
  into bank holding companies. But in 2011, he resigned.
• 5:30
  He opposed Bernanke's 600 billion QE 2 plan, thought it
• 5:34
  was reckless, voted against it, lost, and walked out.
• 5:37
  That's the story the bulls tell. He's an independent thinker, but
• 5:42
  watch where he went after he resigned, because this is where
• 5:46
  the story turns. The Bilderberg Group, June 2011.
• 5:54
  Three months after leaving the Fed, Warsh attended the
• 5:57
  Bilderberg Conference in Saint Maurice, Switzerland.
• 6:00
  Invitation only Approximately 130 of the world's most powerful
• 6:03
  people. No press, no public minutes.
• 6:06
  2011 attendee list includes Kevin Walsh, Peter Thiel, Eric
• 6:11
  Schmidt, Henry Kissinger, David Rockefeller.
• 6:14
  But here's the detail most people miss.
• 6:16
  Walsh wasn't just an attendee, he was on the steering
• 6:20
  committee. The steering committee is the
• 6:22
  inner circle. They decide who gets invited.
• 6:25
  If Bilderberger is the club, the steering committee is the
• 6:28
  bouncer, the owner and the DJ. That's not showing up to a party
• 6:33
  that is running the party. Warsh is a current member of the
• 6:36
  G30, approximately 30 of the world's top central bankers,
• 6:40
  finance ministers, economists, ECB, Bank of England, Bank of
• 6:44
  Japan, Reserve Bank of India. In April 2025, he delivered the
• 6:48
  G30 spring lecture at the IMF Commanding Heights.
• 6:52
  Central banks at a crossroads. Stack it up.
• 6:55
  Elderberg steering committee. G30 member, G20 representative.
• 6:59
  IMF lecturer. Oh, wait, I haven't told you
• 7:01
  about the Soros connection yet. When Walsh left the Fed in 2011,
• 7:06
  he became a partner at Duquesne Family Office.
• 7:08
  Legendary investor Stan Druckenmiller's firm.
• 7:12
  Yeah, Druckenmiller. 30% annual returns for three decades.
• 7:16
  Not a single losing year. A genius.
• 7:18
  He's also the protege of George Soros.
• 7:21
  Rand Soros's Quantum Fund. Together they broke the Bank of
• 7:25
  England in 1992. The Financial Times described
• 7:28
  wars. Druckenmiller is going far
• 7:30
  beyond simple workplace respect, with people likening to that of
• 7:34
  a parent and a devoted child. He's a major mentor and kicker.
• 7:38
  Druckenmiller isn't just close with wars, she's also close with
• 7:41
  Treasury Secretary Scott Besson. Chosen Biz America's fiscal
• 7:46
  economic chiefs are all part of the Druckenmiller camp, the Fed
• 7:50
  Chair and the Treasury Secretary both mentored by the same man
• 7:54
  who was mentored by George Soros.
• 7:57
  If you're still with me, you know the Lottery Connection,
• 8:00
  Bilderberg Steering Committee, the G30, and the Druckenmiller
• 8:03
  Soros pipeline. But I saved the darkest and most
• 8:07
  important part for last. On January 30th, 2026, Donald
• 8:12
  Trump announced Kevin Walsh as the nominee for Fed Chair.
• 8:16
  On the exact same day, January 30th, 2026, the DOJ released a
• 8:20
  new batch of Jeffrey Epstein related files.
• 8:23
  Kevin Walsh's name appeared twice.
• 8:26
  A guest list titled St. Bars Christmas 2010 shared with
• 8:30
  Epstein. Kevin Walsh was on it.
• 8:32
  It is unclear whether Walsh actually attended or was simply
• 8:36
  on an invite list. That distinction matters, but
• 8:40
  his name was in Epstein's orbit. After Epstein's conviction, a
• 8:44
  separate e-mail from Epstein's assistant, Leslie Groff
• 8:47
  forwarded to Epstein a list of people Peggy invited to Wall
• 8:51
  Street. Peggy Siegel, prominent New York
• 8:53
  City publicist Warsh is on the list.
• 8:56
  Also on the same list, Mr. and Missus Donald Trump, Mr. and
• 9:00
  Misses Donald Trump Junior, Mr. and Misses Jared Kushner, and of
• 9:04
  course Jeffrey Epstein and Jelaine Maxwell, Kevin Walsh and
• 9:09
  Donald Trump on the same Epstein adjacent guest list 15 years
• 9:14
  later. 1 nominated the other to the most powerful economic
• 9:18
  position in the world. March 20th, 2026, Warren sent a
• 9:22
  formal letter demanding answers. Did you go to Saint Barts?
• 9:26
  Did you interact with Epstein? What was your relationship with
• 9:30
  Peggy Siegel? She pressed.
• 9:31
  On the 100 million plus in undisclosed investments, the
• 9:35
  Juggernaut Fund asked point blank whether any investments
• 9:39
  were in vehicles set up to advance Jeffrey Epstein.
• 9:43
  His answer? He didn't deny it, said he'd
• 9:45
  agreed to divest all assets before taking office.
• 9:49
  Warren, will you disclose how you divest those assets or will
• 9:53
  you just collect a check for 100 million?
• 9:56
  He did not directly answer. Now, to be clear, Kevin Walsh
• 9:59
  has not been accused of any crime.
• 10:01
  Being on a guest list is not evidence of wrongdoing.
• 10:05
  Many wealthy New Yorkers intersected with Epstein
• 10:07
  circles. But the question isn't whether
• 10:09
  Walsh did anything illegal. The question is whether these
• 10:13
  connections create leverage. And that brings us to the real
• 10:18
  thesis. Donald Trump wants lower
• 10:21
  interest rates, he said publicly.
• 10:23
  Anyone who disagrees with me will never be Fed chairman.
• 10:26
  His last Fed chair, Powell defied him, kept rates high.
• 10:30
  What happened? DOJ, criminal investigation,
• 10:33
  Powell said publicly. It was a pretext.
• 10:35
  So Trump learned, don't pick someone who might defy you.
• 10:38
  Pick someone who can't get Walsh through that lens.
• 10:42
  One, his father-in-law, Ronald Lauder, is one of Trump's oldest
• 10:46
  friends, biggest donors and confidants.
• 10:49
  Walsh owes the nomination to this relationship.
• 10:52
  Politico reported The Walsh Lauder connection was the
• 10:55
  biggest factor. You don't bite the hand of a man
• 10:57
  who gave you the throne. 2 His name is in the Epstein files on
• 11:01
  the same guest list as Trump himself.
• 11:04
  If Walsh ever goes rogue on rates, those files can be
• 11:08
  amplified, investigated, re released.
• 11:11
  The DOJ controls those files. And who controls the DOJ?
• 11:17
  Allegedly 3 / 100 million in opaque investments he resisted
• 11:22
  disclosing. The ethics questions aren't
• 11:25
  resolved, they're deferred. That's ammunition the
• 11:28
  administration can use. Trump told reporters one week
• 11:31
  before the hearing. Interest rates will drop when
• 11:34
  Kevin gets in. He's not being subtle.
• 11:36
  Alan Blinder, former Fed vice chair, Princeton.
• 11:39
  We all know Donald Trump. He wants a loyalty pledge of
• 11:42
  some kind. I hope Kevin Walsh didn't give
• 11:45
  one. In fairness, the counter
• 11:47
  argument, Walsh did resign in 2011 over QE.
• 11:50
  Genuine independence confirmed unanimously 100 to 0 says he
• 11:55
  won't be. Trump's puppet called inflation
• 11:57
  a choice. He'll fight if necessary.
• 12:00
  Maybe Bilderberg was just networking.
• 12:03
  Maybe the Epstein list were just wealthy New York social circles.
• 12:06
  Maybe. But here's what I keep coming
• 12:09
  back to. It doesn't matter what Kevin
• 12:11
  Walsh believes that the people who put him there have leverage
• 12:14
  over him, even if he wants to be independent.
• 12:17
  The Epstein files exist. The water relationship exists.
• 12:21
  The 100 million in opaque holdings exist.
• 12:24
  The DOJ precedent over Powell exists.
• 12:28
  Trump doesn't need to call and threaten him.
• 12:30
  He just needs Warsh to know what he knows.
• 12:32
  And Warsh knows that's leverage without a phone call.
• 12:35
  That's control without a contract.
• 12:37

  Why am I telling telling you all this on a Bitcoin channel?
• 14:51
  Because this is the whole point of Bitcoin.
• 14:54
  For 100 years Americans have been told the Fed is
• 14:57
  independent, that monetary policy is decided by brilliant
• 15:01
  economists using data, not politics.
• 15:04
  And what we just walked through The Bilderberg steering
• 15:07
  committee, the Epstein guest list, the father-in-law who
• 15:09
  gives the president Greenland ideas, the 100 million in
• 15:13
  undisclosed hedge fund assets, the Soros protege pulling
• 15:17
  strings from behind a family office.
• 15:20
  This is who decides the value of your money.
• 15:23
  This is who decides whether your savings loses purchasing power.
• 15:28
  Not you. Not me, a guy on an Epstein
• 15:31
  guest list who married into a cosmetics dynasty and sits on
• 15:35
  the Bilderberg steering committee.
• 15:37
  And you know what's wild? He might actually be good for
• 15:40
  Bitcoin. Bit of a degenerate.
• 15:42
  Worst disclosed 34 separate crypto investments at the
• 15:46
  hearing quote. Bitcoin doesn't trouble me.
• 15:48
  I think of it as an important asset that can help inform
• 15:51
  policy makers. He called QE reverse Robin Hood,
• 15:55
  steal from the poor, give to the rich.
• 15:57
  That's what Bitcoiners have been saying for over a decade now.
• 16:00
  The incoming Fed chair is saying it from the confirmation chair.
• 16:04
  His new accord with the Treasury would restructure how America
• 16:08
  manages 36 trillion in debt, selling long bonds, buying short
• 16:12
  bills, reforming bank capital rules if it works, lower rates,
• 16:17
  money printing, best case macro setup the Bitcoin has ever had.
• 16:22
  But here's the point. Whether Kevin Warsh is the best
• 16:25
  thing that ever happened to Bitcoin of the most compromised
• 16:27
  Fed chair in history, it doesn't change your move.
• 16:31
  You hold Bitcoin because you don't want your financial future
• 16:34
  in the hands of someone with Epstein connections, Bilderberg
• 16:37
  memberships, and a father-in-law who trades Greenland mineral
• 16:41
  rights for political access. You hold Bitcoin because even in
• 16:44
  the best case where this guy is genuinely brilliant, genuinely
• 16:48
  independent, and genuinely good at his job, he's still one
• 16:52
  person controlling the money supply for 330 million people.
• 16:57
  And no one person should have that power, especially not one
• 17:01
  disentangled. Bitcoin doesn't care who the Fed
• 17:05
  chair is. Bitcoin doesn't care about
• 17:07
