General Flynn Reveals How DC is Controlled: Pedophilia, Epstein, Bribes & Blackmail · Man in America Podcast

• 1:33
  Seth Holehouse: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Man in America. I'm your host, Seth Holehouse. Everywhere you look in our country, whether it's the Southern Border or DC, the legal system or media, it seems like the whole country, the the fabric of what is supposed to be protecting us and keeping us safe is actually has been turned against us. And so today, I'll be speaking to general Michael Flynn, and he's someone that has been on the forefront of fighting against the deep state between him and his family. And we're gonna be talking specifically about all these different ways that these organizations have been weaponized against us, but also why and how.
• 2:18
  And so he's gonna be digging into in detail how officials are compromised, our leaders, our politicians are compromised. Specifically, what are the methods? How does someone how is someone groomed? How are they taken in? Even someone that has good intentions entering into Congress?
• 2:35
  How is it that they get turned into someone that goes against the values of America that turns against protecting us, the American people? And because from his own words, our country in many ways is being run by communists or people that are controlled by the communist, whether it's China, elements of Russia, the globalist, this is what's going on. And so the destruction that we're seeing happening around us and our pleas for the politicians or anybody that has power to do something, why are they being not listened to? According to Michael Flynn, it's because these people are actually acting on behalf of the enemies. So we're going to be diving into how people are compromised, what that looks like, but also be talking about the Southern border, and the Middle East and what's happening with the Middle East and Ukraine.
• 3:26
  So it's gonna be a very comprehensive interview with General Michael Flynn. So folks, please enjoy the interview. General Flynn, I have to say it is such an honor to have you on the show. I know you're very busy, and I really appreciate you making the time to come on today.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: Absolutely, Seth. It's great. Man in America. Here we are. Right?
• 3:46
  Here here we And I appreciate your patience, and I appreciate your audience. And, you know, and just, you know, we're really in a we're in an interesting time here in the country, and I think it's really important for for those of us that are, you know, that are out here with these I I sort of describe them as fiercely independent voices. You are one of them that we have to get out to as many people as possible what's happening, you know, not just here at home in America, but also around the world that is affecting American interests at home and definitely affecting you know? I mean, it's affecting our everyday lives. You know, I I've I well, I know we're gonna talk about a bunch of things, but I I just was, you know, given some incredible stats today based on I think it's testimony that, it might have been testimony that, director Wray, the FBI director, was given to, given to a a congressional hearing.
• 4:49
  So maybe we can talk a little bit about that.
• 4:52
  Seth Holehouse: Yeah, sure. Well, one thing I think is a good place for us to dive into is, so I recently interviewed a man named JJ Carroll, who was a border agent and kind of rate, you know, pretty high ranking border agent for probably 24 and recently retired, wrote a book. And he is absolutely alarmed over not just the amount of illegal immigrants coming in, but the amount of what he referred to as SIAs, special interest aliens, people that have ties to terrorist groups, terrorist organizations, that there have been 10s of 1000s just being let into the borders. And he was greatly concerned that at some point, most likely before the twenty twenty four election, that we would see a attack on American soil considering we have all these terrorist cells just walking across the border. Just wanna see what your thoughts are on that.
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah. So let's start let's start at the 60,000 foot level with just some of the recent statements by, I think it's the foreign minister of Iran at the United Nations where he basically just threatens threatens the people of The United States Of America, you know, that that based on what happens over there, we better be ready over here. I mean, it's a very threatening statement made by, I think it was the foreign minister of Iran. That's sort of number one. The second thing is that we now have a roughly I think it's 30 we're up to, like, 30 attacks against US forces disposed in and around the Middle East and Iraq and Syria.
• 6:26
  Thirty. So it's not like, you know, one or two, and we kinda go, hey. You know, we and we we threaten retaliation. Now we have, like, 30. We have Iran firing missiles, large missiles from from Yemen into you know they are at least a launching them toward Israel now we've had we've had missiles fired from Yemen by the Houthi rebels at US warships in the past now they're firing them into into Yemen Oh, I'm sorry.
• 7:00
  They're firing them into Israel. And these are these are these are precision guided munitions, precision guided missiles. So I, you know, I kinda look at that perspective sort of from the cloud level looking down. Now we take it to your question. And one of the things that I learned today was that in 2010, we had 21,000 requests for asylum.
• 7:28
  Okay? In 02/2010, '20 '1 thousand requests for asylum. This year, we've had 21,000 requests for asylum. We are now averaging 21,000 requests for asylum every three days, every three days. So, you know, ten years ago or a little over a decade ago, 21,000 in the entirety of a year.
• 7:54
  Now we're looking at that many in every three days. Something's wrong, vastly, grossly wrong with that picture. And it is a horrific place for The United States Of America to be because of this open borders policy. We we have an over open borders policy. We actually have a policy of just sheer open borders, which results in utter chaos on the streets of America and in the homes of Americans.
• 8:21
  And in, you know, it affects every single aspect of every institution of this country, like education, health care, our our banking system, our police, our our our law enforcement system, our, you know, I mean, every every single aspect of of American livelihood are going to be affected and have been affected and are are being horrendously affected, particularly the the rising crime as well as the the introduction of of these really dangerous drugs onto the streets of America by this open borders policy. It is not a we do not have a a border policy that says, you know, you're gonna come in through this way. You're gonna do this legally, you're gonna, you know, we're gonna have these different processes in place. It's just wide open. It's like the wild wild west.
• 9:18
  And it's not it's no longer just at places like Eagle Pass, Texas or or Agua Prieta, Arizona or Tijuana, California. It is all over the country. So so when we talk about, you know, what does this mean? And now and now we have some governors, at least in some big city mayors are now starting to look at how they can start to sign these people up so they have, they're protected by our constitution like an like a retina like a US citizen is protected by our constitution. So that's kind of the next layer down.
• 9:55
  And then your specific question about about these these known special interest countries, right, countries of of of special interest as well as special interest people who are part of these organizations and groups that we know that we've we have designated and defined as terrorist groups, you know, whether it's Hamas, Hezbollah, ISIS, Al Qaeda, you know, Ansar al Islam. I mean, there's a bunch of different groups. Two in particular are Hamas and Hezbollah. You know, Hamas and both of them are now engaged in combat against Israel in The Middle East, and we have actually had our own difficulties with them. The United States Of America has had our own difficulties with them overseas in our in our wars, particularly the war in Iraq.
• 10:49
  So, you know, it's not about them showing up here, down at the border, and there's some more down in New Mexico waiting to cross. They're here. So these organizations are already here. They are represented here, and they're represented in many cases around the country in different segments of the population where where there are, you know, a high propensity of of Muslims who have come into the country over the last couple of decades, you know, and and they are, you know, they so there there are representatives of those of those organizations that are in our country now and have been for quite some time, actually. The the problem is is, you know, one, have we identified them?
• 11:36
  Does the FBI know who they are? And I and I think and again, because I forgive me and and for the audience, I did not see the testimony by Christopher Wray, but apparently in his in his testimony, tell you he was asked the question, you know, do you have any of these organizations or groups on your on your target list, so to speak? And his answer was a bit nebulous. It was almost like, you know, he couldn't either talk about it or he or he might have indicated that they're not they're not there. Right?
• 12:07
  Even though we know that what the FBI has gone after for, you know, like, or people who are protesting outside of of abortion clinics. I mean, you know, or the or the entire j six. You know, the FBI's got a huge, huge task force to still go after another what I what I am told another thousand people, in this in The United States Of America for j six. And we all know now that j six to me, you know, and and what we've seen, you know, was a farce. I mean, is it absolutely it's it's a disgusting display of abuse by, by the federal government to go after people, particularly people that just went and and peacefully protested and went inside the capital there, you know, some people some of these people are arrested and they're in jail for ten years.
• 12:54
  I mean, it's just it's just there's a level of insanity. And and and I would just say just an incredible breakdown of our rule of law system and our constitutional processes that, you know, that only seem to happen in Washington DC. Right? So if you go back to Washington DC for any kind of form of justice, you know, you're just not gonna you're not gonna get a it's not fair. It's period.
• 13:23
  End of sentence. It's just not fair. So so all that said, Seth, you know, do we have a threat posed in this country by these organizations when when we when we see what's going on over in The Middle East and and the threats that are coming from the highest levels of the governments that we're talking about, Iran principally, that they're threatening us that we could actually see that kind of we we could see some sort of attacks here in this country. And so what I'm telling you and I'm telling your audience is you damn you you you're damn right they're here. And and they have in in many cases, they have expanded their footprint over the last two years by bringing in even more people from from these special, you know, special interest countries and special interest groups.
• 14:16
  And you have to say to yourself is, okay. So if that's the case, are you know, is organizations like the Federal Bureau of Investigation as the FBI, are they actually tracking these people? I mean, we're not talking about, you know, like, we're not talking about 19 or 20 guys who learned how to fly airplanes into buildings. Right? I mean, we're talking about tens of thousands here because we've allowed this open borders policy, and we know these special interest countries have been flooding in to this country.
• 14:47
  And we know that many of these groups are already here. So where's our FBI? Is our FBI actually focused on the threats that we that we are we we should be aware of? You know, are they are they focusing on with their with all of their sources and all their abilities, you know, all their resources that that we give them, right, that we, the American people, give them to operate. You know, I had a conversation with a a gentleman this morning about, the shooting up in Maine.
• 15:19
  Right? The shooting up in Maine. So it was a it you know, it appear and the guy, I guess, he's, you know, he's been he's he might have killed himself. I don't I I I lost the bubble on it because I was like, I couldn't believe that for a couple of days they couldn't find this guy. Right?
• 15:33
  And then they found him, I guess, dead. And I don't you know, you may know whether he committed suicide or not. You don't even hear about it on the media anymore. But what we've what we learned from the shooter or from the shooting is that the FBI actually had this guy on their radar. How many times do we have to be told after a mass murder that the FBI actually had the guy on their radar and they just dropped the ball or they allowed the guy to to walk around and have gun I mean, again, we have to take a step back and we have to reflect on why is it that we have these organizations that we have that are supposed to protect the safety and security of the people of this country, and yet we feel threatened by them?
• 16:24
  So if I'm a law abiding citizen, I'm following you know, I'm I'm basically exercising my rights, and I'm following the constitution. I'm following the law. I'm doing everything that I'm supposed to do. You know, I'm not a perfect person, but I'm but I'm I'm following the law, and I'm doing what I'm supposed to do. You know?
• 16:43
  And then I find out that our that our FBI is, like, coming after me instead of focusing on the problems that really do exist. Right? And and and the the mere fact that I'm talking about that really tragic incident that happened up in Maine where a lot of people hit a bowling alley and I guess parts of a mall. A lot of people were killed. Families are are ruined for life very sadly.
• 17:10
  Was it's devastating devastating series of events up there. And now it's kinda completely out of the news. You even hear about it anymore. And I think part of that, part of the reason why, you know, speculation a bit, but I I think it's because once it was because the media loves jumping on that kind of stuff. Right?
• 17:31
  They love jumping on guns, guns, guns are bad. Right? But I think actually part of it was once it once we realized, once we learned that the FBI actually had this guy in some category of of being a a suspect or being a a a at risk person, once they learn that, the media dropped away and they got they they stopped talking about it because, oh, it's gonna make the FBI look bad. Right? It's gonna make make the FBI look like, Jesus, you so you're you allowed this, you know, or you enabled it by not paying close enough attention.
• 18:06
  I don't wanna say aloud, but you enabled it. You certainly enabled it by not paying close enough attention to this guy, yet you're gonna go, you know, look at somebody who stood outside the capital, you know, and I thought, you know, some of the worst examples are recently we had, I think, a couple of women. And I think they're looking at were like my age. They're looking at at years in prison for being at the capital and and, you know, and and being part of a a a peaceful protest. Right?
• 18:33
  But because they were there and they were in some place, you know, they're it's like the FBI is going after them instead of everybody kinda you know, again, let's take a step back and let's start to examine what it is that is happening to our country, What it is that's happening around the world. Because these dots are definitely connected. There are no coincidences when it comes to the kinds of things that we are being led to believe and the behavior that we are being driven to accept or acknowledge and, you know, what is happening overseas in this in this latest war, right, the war in The Middle East. We're not hearing anybody talk about Ukraine anymore. Right?
• 19:19
  We all heard for for the last year and certainly the last six months, I mean, with Zelenskyy coming and doing a state of the union and wander around Washington DC and everybody patting him on the back, all of the, you know, all the all the black tie affairs, patting Zelensky on the back for, you know, being this great leader in in Ukraine. And we were told the Ukrainians are kicking the Russians ass. They're winning the war. They're doing this. We're you know, we gotta give them more money because, you know, they need more resources.
• 19:46
  We're not even talking about Ukraine anymore. You don't even hear about it.
• 19:50
  Seth Holehouse: Folks, I have a quick message for you. 2024 is do or die for the globalists and communists that want to absolutely destroy America. And one of the number one things they're gonna be targeting is our financial system, whether it's through bank collapses or a financial collapse or the market collapsing, whatever it is, they will try to do anything possible to force us into their central bank digital currency because that's what gives them absolute and total control. And so if you have money sitting in a bank account, savings, four zero one k, stock market, etcetera, those are all vulnerable to these attacks. This is why I'm such a big believer in precious metals because they are an insurance policies against this global agenda to destroy America.
• 20:27
  And so folks, even if you do have just a small portion of your assets into precious metals, you know that in case things go really bad, which I hope they don't, but unfortunately, I think that all the signs are pointing towards that happening, you know you have some aspect of your wealth that you can preserve through the chaos, protect your family. And so if you need someone that you can trust, that I personally trust extremely, extremely so much, it's doctor Kirk Kelly. He's a good friend of mine, and he's someone that will give you a fair price on precious metals, physical silver, and gold. So today, go to goldwithseth.com. Again, that's goldwithseth.com, or call (720) 605-3900 to speak to someone with on Kirk's team that will get you in their queue right away.
• 21:11
  We'll set up a free consultation with one of his wealth advisors. Again, folks, I don't wanna be a fearmonger, but I genuinely believe they're gonna be doing everything possible to collapse this system so they can control us. And physical gold and physical silvers are one of the best insurance policies to make sure that your family is protected against the great reset.
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: Now you hear about every little aspect of what's happening in The Middle East, you know, and there's and and and there's some really brutal, brutal things that happened at the beginning and some real brutal things that are happening now. But what again, why is it that we are not even we're not even addressing Europe anymore? And Europe is actually that's a big problem. Right? That's a big problem.
• 21:53
  Because if we say if we accept, and I think we should. I mean, at this stage, you know, when you look at, the war in Eastern Europe between Ukraine and Russia, to me, it looks like the Ukraine Military is pretty much decimated. Or I I would say from a military guy, you know, the way the way that we define words in the military, the Ukraine military has been defeated. They are no longer capable of of carrying out their their you know, they no longer have the ability to be able to carry out any further really enduring campaigns. Right?
• 22:28
  They're defeated. And and Russia still stands, you know, fairly strong. Where they're at. They've poured on a lot of resources. I understand that.
• 22:38
  And there's and they have some weaknesses and some and some inadequacies in their capabilities. But essentially, you know, where are we stand in that in that now going on a couple of years? Where we stand in that war is it looks like it's a stalemate. It looks like the Ukrainian military has been defeated. Russia looks like they they they maintain the the terrain that they basically occupy, the Eastern Donbas, which people can argue with me all day long, but they're those are those are predominantly Russian side, whether or not they wanted to be with Russia or they want the Russian Federation or they wanted to whether they wanted to be with Ukraine.
• 23:14
  It's clear that in Ukraine, there's a there is a an attack, an assault against the churches. There's an assault against journalists. Journalists. I mean, there there is a there is a an awful lot of money that we have. Just The United States alone has poured into there.
• 23:31
  And you have to ask yourself, where did the money go? What did it you know? I mean, somebody sent me a somebody sent me a picture, and these are these are, you know, known oligarchs from Ukraine, but these big, big, beautiful yachts in Monaco. Right? And it they were kinda lined up, and they sell they you know, these were the some of the Ukrainian oligarchs.
• 23:53
  Right? They got their nice lot. Now whether or not there's a a tie to the $200,000,000,000 that we've given to Ukraine and the fact that these guys have their nice yachts lined up in Monaco, you know, you have to ask yourself to what end are we actually doing what we're doing in Eastern Europe? And to me, that's a good question to ask because the administration under Biden has yet to actually stand up and articulate clear objectives for why we're there other than we have to beat Russia. We can't allow Russia to do this.
• 24:29
  You know? NATO. NATO. NATO. Right?
• 24:32
  And now we have the war in The Middle East, right, which is really a war between it's a it's a very, very the the nature of this war is spiritual in context, meaning it is it is Judaism versus Islamism. There's there are probably components of Christianity against Islamism. And most people will say, you know, the the pundits, the mainstream media, you know, a lot of these people that get on there and they talk about, well, Hamas is this and and the and the Israelis are that. Now this is a this is a spiritual war. There's no doubt about it.
• 25:12
  This is a spiritual war. This is a biblical war. When we start to talk about and you see all these different coalescing of of, you know, of the sort of the Arab world, the potential blending of, you know, even though even though they don't get along and they have their own they have their own massive major issues, you know, the Sunni Shia rift within the Arab world, within the within the Islamic world right the the the Muslim world because you know Iranians are primarily Shia and and and and it's really the Persian you know if you go back in history is the Persian Empire and the and they're primarily Shia. And then, of course, you have the rest of the Middle East, which is primarily Sunni, but you have different factions. But it it seems like, you know, Iran is is helping Syria.
• 26:11
  Syria is helping Hezbollah and Hamas. Iran is helping Hezbollah. Iran is helping Hamas. You know? Then then you have the with the Houthi rebels down in Yemen, which is South Of Saudi Arabia.
• 26:26
  They are they are, at at war really with the Saudis, but they're firing missiles into Israel. I mean, you have this, like, this cauldron that is just an absolute mess. And we have our own administration, which is so so it's so chaotic right now. I mean, the the secretary of defense made some statements here in the last twenty four hours. The the national security adviser has made some statements in the last ninety six hours or so.
• 26:58
  The secretary of state on each other. You hope that they're taking guidance from, you know, the leader sitting behind the resolute desk in the Oval Office. That does not appear to be the case. So we now have we now have a an approach to this to this war that's occurring in The Middle East like we have with the war occurring in Eastern Europe. We have almost no, you know, no real clear stated objectives about what our American objectives for Support Israel?
• 27:30
  Okay. Great. I mean, I'm fine. That that's fine. But what are what are the overarching objectives for what it is that we're trying to achieve?
• 27:37
  If we give a hundred million dollars to Hamas or to the Gaza Strip, to the Palestinian Liberation Organization, or to the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, those are all pieces and parts of what sits in Gaza. If we're gonna give them a hundred million dollars, do you think that a hundred million dollars are gonna go into the to to the livelihoods of of the people of Gaza? Absolutely not. Absolutely not. You know, when you when you look at the the tunnel construction that these guys are able to create in Gaza underneath hospitals, underneath schools, underneath homes, underneath neighborhoods, I mean, that that kind of construction of what they've created comes at a cost.
• 28:17
  So you think our money's going into making sure that that these people have bread and and and food and and nice drinking water? No. It's not. Not bad at all. Do you think that they have good hospital systems that are able to take care of them?
• 28:33
  No. Because they don't they don't care about that. What they care about is one thing, and that's hatred, in this case, hatred of Jews. And and that that that sort of biblical component of what what it is that we're facing is a is very real. Now all that said, and I've asked this question because I and I do wanna talk a little bit about China today too with you.
• 28:58
  You know, the question is why why are the Palestinians Israel's problem? Right? Why are the Palestinians Israel's problem? Is it that, you know, they tell they'll go, well, that's our land. What are the other nations in that region of the world doing?
• 29:14
  You know, are there are there Palestinians migrating into Saudi Arabia?
• 29:21
  Seth Holehouse: Hey, folks. I have a quick message for you. Thank you so much for watching and listening to this interview. I have one small request. If you're enjoying what you're listening to, could you please share this interview with one person?
• 29:34
  Just one person? Because of censorship and shadow banning, it's so hard to get this content out to more people. And the only way we can really do it is when you help by sharing it. So if you like what you're listening to, hit pause, share it with one person. It helps so much.
• 29:48
  Thank you so much.
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: Are there Palestinians migrating into Egypt? Are there Palestinians migrating into Oman, into Qatar? Their leadership about, you know, neglecting you know, these places will lock somebody. Why is it The United States has to come up with all the money for everybody? Why why is the Palestinian problem a an Israeli problem?
• 30:12
  Well, it's an Israeli problem because it's like it's like a a hot poker. You know? It's like a hot poker in a in in the only bastion, only readout of democracy in the in the region is Israel. Right? So the rest of it you know Israel surrounded by this one of the things that's interesting under the tide in it.
• 30:34
  Is for the Arab nations to actually work together to come together and make some decisions about how the region how they need to, you know, participate in the region and and calm things down. Right? Why do they always have to make it about Israel? Why do they always have to make it about Israel? What is this hatred?
• 30:53
  And it goes back. It's biblical. That's why I say we're really dealing with a spiritual war. So all that said, taking it back to here in America, you know, I think about, you know, what are our American interests? Right?
• 31:10
  What is it what is best for America? Well, if we continue to have a, I mean, a open borders policy, and this is on both sides. This is up in the North with Canada and and, down on the southern border with Mexico. If we continue to have this sort of open zone where everybody is just free play, free for all, then then we're we're gonna turn around one of these days very soon, sooner than we think. And we're gonna go, what happened to my town?
• 31:37
  What happened to my city? What happened to my state? What's going on in my county? Why is it that we can't get any you know, we can't hire in this country that are missing from their custody? I mean, these are the kinds of things that a normal healthy society would be dealing with, right?
• 31:56
  With really strong positive leadership in our country, if we were if we had it, we would be dealing with these kinds of issues. We don't have that right now. We do not have that right now. And I will tell you that that people don't realize how much our nation has been infiltrated by communists. And that's very real.
• 32:17
  I'm not kidding about that. So our nation has been infiltrated at in damn near every institution, particularly the government, has been infiltrated by people who are socialist, communist, or or Marxist leaning. It's been going on for a long, long time. All all the era of Trump did was he exposed it. And, of course, he you know, we we continue to see the exposure of these of these groups and these people because of everything that we're going that's going on in our country right now, particularly with all these these crazy, crazy legal actions that we see that are all one-sided.
• 32:53
  They're all very, very one-sided. It's not you don't see you know, name name one Democrat, you know, political person who's who's being who has a special counsel or somebody against them. I mean, you know, they they say that, you know, the Bidens and Hunter, he's got a they'll go, oh, he's got a special counsel. What is well, so what's happening? I mean, we know everything about what's going on with Trump and everybody around him, but we know nothing about what's going on here.
• 33:19
  And it doesn't appear to anybody that any of these folks are gonna get into trouble at all, and they're just sort of running the clock out. Right? So let me let me pause there because I know we don't have let me just throw it back to you, Seth, if you have any questions. I want to talk a little bit about China.
• 33:34
  Seth Holehouse: Yes. I wanted to I I'm glad you brought up the communist infiltration and and really all of these different topics you hit on, they all interrelate to each other. And so looking at the corruption of DC, you know, the open border, and asking ourselves, how is this being allowed to happen in our country? Well, it's, to me, it's obvious that our leaders, our elected officials, you know, Congress, etcetera, are not acting on behalf of the American people. They're acting on behalf of our enemies that want to collapse America.
• 34:03
  And so I wanted to detail that a little bit more. I know that you run on an interview recently with Joy Thayer, you know, wonderful woman. Great interview. And you talked more specifically about the compromising of our our congress through blackmail as it related to them being caught with sleeping with children. And that's something that there's been a lot of discussion about this in in the not so much the mainstream, but I think it's if you look at the history of communism, it's the Soviet Union or the current CCP, that's one of the ways they compromise politicians.
• 34:35
  That's the one deed that gives them ultimate control. So can you expand on that a little more for the audience?
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah. So, yeah, that's good. So we have adversaries, clear adversaries who who want to see the demise of The United States Of America. They want the resources that this country has. We have an abundance of resources.
• 34:55
  They they they want to see the collapse of The United States Of America and our way of life and our system of government. They don't like it. Okay. And, you know, you can name all the stuff. I mean, all the other sort of a global alliance that's formed against us, principally communist countries.
• 35:11
  Russia, China would be too. You know, we worked for forty years during the Cold War to to basically defeat the Soviet Union, and and and we did. And and there's a consequence to that. Right? That consequence is is they they haven't stopped coming at us.
• 35:27
  Right? Not just Russia, but, but the idea you know, the ideology of communism. And and then these other threats that I talked about in the first part of the show here, which is really this radicalized, body large body of Islamists. So so, you know, on on this idea of government that are, you know, that that that are so easily compromised. So you can you can compromise somebody by, you know, a person runs for public office.
• 35:57
  Right? You know, for for congress, and it's their first term. They run for office. They get to Washington DC. One of the first things that begins to happen is they were a law enforcement professional or they were a business person, and they just said, hell of it.
• 36:11
  This this situation in Washington is terrible. I'm gonna go, and I'm gonna fix it. Well, so they get into that. They they they they get there. They win.
• 36:19
  Then they show up to Washington, and they show up to Washington. What happens? Now they're gonna be put on certain committees and those committees are speaker of the house. Right? So if you look at the laundry list of speakers dating way back, it's kinda like that's a very influential position.
• 36:33
  So if you're gonna go on the house armed services committee, the house intel committee, the Senate Armed Services Committee, the Appropriations Committee, the Commerce Committee, all these different committees that then are going to decide on budgets. So you're gonna have the lobbyists, right? You're gonna have the lobbyists come in there, The defense industry, the military industrial complex is the is the very famous industry, the insurance industry, the housing industry, the agriculture industry, you name it. Okay? Some of them are more powerful than others.
• 37:03
  They're gonna come in. They're gonna go, hey. Begins to get tested. And these organizations because I haven't really talked about going overseas yet. This was kinda what I talked about with Joy the other day was these send overseas to go and and do these these congressional or senate delegations overseas, where there's either staffers or there's actual members that go overseas.
• 37:25
  But right here at home, there's pressure points to find out what's their weaknesses. Do they like, you know, do they like women? Do they like boys? Do they like little kids? I mean, that's this is the kind of level of detail that you're going to analyze somebody.
• 37:40
  You know, do they do they have a lot of debt? Has he been married? You know, I'm talking about guys or women too, but, you know, has he been married and divorced a couple of times? Does he drink too much? Does he do you know, what are the what are the weaknesses in a person's moral fiber?
• 37:54
  K. So when they when a and a group of representatives or a group of senators show up to some some country, and they usually go to multiple countries on some of these. Sometimes it's a one a visit maybe into Egypt or maybe it's into, into some place in Europe, then they go back home. And usually they they'll do a, you know, a a multi visit kind of thing. And each place that they go to, it's not just the country that they're visiting that's targeting them.
• 38:20
  It's countries like China. It's countries like Russia. It's other countries that that you would least suspect and what they're looking for and they're watching and they're paying people to do this. They're paying the you know, this is the world of spying or this is the world of intelligence and counterintelligence and counter espionage and espionage. Because what you're trying to do is you're trying to find that one or two, or maybe it's the whole group, you know, of people that you can get into a very compromising situation.
• 38:49
  Right?
• 38:50
  Seth Holehouse: Folks, have a quick message for you. Look. The twenty twenty four election is do or die for the globalist and communists that have infiltrated our country and are currently running it. And they either have to win or they're gonna destroy America so nothing is left either way. And if you're the person that's watching this show and following this information, unfortunately, you have the weight on your shoulders of making sure that your family is prepared, especially as we head in to this next year and this next election cycle.
• 39:17
  Because unfortunately, I think it's gonna get rough. And one of the ways I know they're going to target us is through our food supply. You can see all the food factories burned down, you can see the warnings of coming famines and food shortages and everything like that. And food is one of the number one ways totalitarian regimes have always used to control the populations destroy the food supply. So if you don't have at least two, three, four, five, six months worth of stored food, I highly recommend you take that very seriously.
• 39:45
  Because look, as I mentioned, if you're the person that's watching this, you're the person that carries the burden of making sure your family is prepared. I would recommend at least six months, if not a year of storable food. So if things go haywire, whether it's coming across the border, that your family can safely stay in place and you can feed your family. So folks today, go to heavensharvest.com and make sure you get your store will for the last for up to twenty five years. Just in case things go south, you know that you have what's gonna take to feed your family, which is so so critical for us to get through this next stage of history.
• 40:18
  So go to heavensharvest.com today, order your food that'll last up to twenty five years and use promo code Seth to save 15% on your entire order. Again, that's heavensharvest.com and use promo code Seth, s e t h, to save 15% on your entire order.
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: And you then own them. Right? You get them into a compromising situation because they go overseas. They're they these people, they're they're big parties. They wine and dine them.
• 40:47
  They give them all kinds of gifts. They get all these things. So everything that I'm talking about, people in government, they know exactly what I'm talking about. So this is very real, and we have to now look at the people that we do have that we are electing. This is where our elections matter.
• 41:05
  Right? And and I do believe now what we should be doing, like, you know, I I said it today and I and I mean this, you know, the whole Epstein, right? The Epstein Island, all this craziness. So like, why is it that we know so little and what is what's the big deal that that who, you know, who's it that's protecting who went down there? You know, we know Epstein, know Ghislain, you know, but everybody that's down there and we know like guys like Bill Clinton were on these things, you know, we know there's a whole bunch of names that were of people that were there.
• 41:39
  It's kinda like, so, but you talk about it and every and right away, conspiracy theorists or or it's like they they'll start to they'll start to rip you to shreds for some other purpose, some other reason because they wanna move away from that topic. Right? They wanna move away from this topic where people are brought somewhere or we know you're gonna show up somewhere. We've already we've already studied you. When I say study you, I mean, you're so when we talk about a dossier.
• 42:09
  Right? I mean, Hillary Clinton with her dossier, a very famous dossier that that caused this country to go through all kinds of hell with the Russiagate. Right? My to include my life, my family, and I that in these dossiers that that are put together on people. Well, we do put dossiers together and carry with you as you're going into a meeting.
• 42:27
  You can have it there so you can study the I can study, you know, Seth Whole House and go, okay, here's kind of what he looks like, here's what he's married, he's had three, three or four, you know, whatever, you know. So I have some background on them when I go to meet you, I'm supposed to meet you and talk to you issues that are important. Well, I wanna know the type of person that I'm gonna go in to meet with. Those things happen constantly. Big companies do that to potential clients, right?
• 42:53
  And countries do that to people who they want to compromise. People that they know if I get if we can get this guy compromised, we can do a lot inside of the United States government. Okay? A lot. I mean, look at Menendez out of New Jersey.
• 43:10
  Right? He's an example that's that became public because he was so freaking blatant where he's stuffing cash into his jacket. He's taking gold bars into a suitcase. You know? He's he's basically providing he's providing in, you know, what what appears to be, you know, some classified information back to the Egyptians.
• 43:29
  I mean, he's a US Senator, US Senator, And he already got himself into into into hot water previously. He he was able to get out of it. You know, we're not talking about him right now. You and I are talking about Menendez, but nobody else is. That the egregiousness of a US Senator doing what he did, and I don't care if he was a Republican, I'd be saying the same thing, is so outrageous, so egregious, so damaging to our national security.
• 43:54
  So there's an example. Now they clearly had him. They clearly the Egyptians had him, you know, they had him, you know, nailed down. So what happened? He got caught.
• 44:05
  He got caught because he got so blatant coming back in and out of The United States Of America. I mean, you couldn't deny it. Right? The the when we talk about somebody must have raised that up and and and said, hey, we know about this guy. You gotta do something about it because he's just so blatant.
• 44:21
  Others are not so blatant, but they're well known inside of the the the sort of the inner circle, the small circle that that revolves around Washington DC. And so I think that what one of the things we have to do is we have to we have to now start challenging these people like, you know, mister senator or missus miss senator or miss congressman, mister congressman. You know, do you have any skeletons that are in your background or do up about some country? Because you're on the you're on the house intel committee. You're on the senate armed services committee.
• 44:52
  You're on the judiciary committee. Is there anything in your background that we need to be aware of? Because if you don't come clean, we're gonna find it out. We're going to find out eventually because the the one ugly ugly thing about the truth is is that it always comes out. And, and when it does, it's, you know, it's the fact that you that you hit it is hit it is as bad as the as the act itself.
• 45:15
  And and and if they find out that you're compromised in some way where you're accepting money for from overseas somebody overseas, meaning that you're actually taking money from a foreign government to do nefarious things on behalf of that government against this country's interest. That's a problem. That's a problem with me. The world of the intelligence side, the the side that I'm I'm part of, that I was part of a big, you know, a big part of it. I'm not anymore.
• 45:41
  I know these things happen because, you know, we we do similar things to some of these countries because we want to have access. Right? You wanna have access inside of the of the highest levels of of government decision making so you can understand what's happening. And you do that at all levels. And so, I mean, that's a that's a, you know, a little bit longer explanation than you probably wanted, but but I I think people need to understand that in this country that we just have this level of of, I don't know, of just corruption.
• 46:14
  It is such deep, deep corruption in our country. And we can overcome this. And this is really my my, you know, sort of my final shot to you is that we can overcome this, Seth, by people, you know, standing there. They're sort of the, you know, their moral high ground and and taking the position that look, enough is enough. We now, you you let guys like me, I'll go out there.
• 46:41
  I'll stick my neck out and I I've they've tried to cut it off and they, you know, and then and they probably, they constantly will. But I'm okay with that because I've found a I've found a place in my life where I am I speak I am you know I see I see and I have seen the writing on the wall for many many years. And and so you know I've been privileged to be given this particular platform whether it's on your show a group that I'm gonna go talk to in the next couple of days. You know, but those of us that don't, your audience, right? The grassroots audiences out there, plural, you now have to decide what is it that you can do.
• 47:20
  The destiny of The United States Of America is Naxxed. You know, whatever you did in the past, if you if you weren't involved in the political life of this country, then that's why we are the way we are. And that and so there, you know, there's the problem. Right? There's the problem, folks.
• 47:36
  So you now have to get involved in the political life of this country. Like I tell people, the price of a loaf of bread is a political issue. It has everything to do with politics. The price of a loaf of bread, nevermind the cost of a gallon of gas. Right?
• 47:53
  So politics is intertwined in every single aspect of us because we're a constitutional republic. It is we, the people, right, that are supposed to be the binding and the fabric of this country like a book. Right? We are not only the binding, we're the binding and we're the pages. You know?
• 48:13
  What we what what is written in that thing is the constitution and what we ask our elected officials to actually go and do on our behalf. And yet what we've learned is that our elect elected officials, they're asking for our votes again. And and we just kinda go, oh, yeah. You know, I'm not I don't do that politics thing. Because you know, off cycle years, we're talking 30 to 35% people vote that are registered to vote in this country.
• 48:37
  Presidential years, when we do have larger turnouts, we're still talking about 65 to maybe I think twenty twenty had a 69% turnout. That's terrible. It's terrible. So that means 30%, thirty five % of people who are registered, who can vote, don't bother. So you know what?
• 48:55
  Don't bother complaining. Don't tell me that you're gonna because I'm first question I'm gonna ask you is, you know, have you been voting? Have you been you know, are you involved in in any kind of way in your community? I walk away. I I I don't have time for that right now.
• 49:09
  I have time for the people that want to be engaged and want to get involved and are getting involved. You know, those are the people that if I say, if somebody says to me, look, you know, I wanna be involved, where do you recommend I get involved? Then I'll have a conversation with them because I have a lot of a lot of options to provide to people that want to do something, you know, whether it's getting involved in national efforts or getting involved in local efforts that, know, the the I have had over the last couple of years of getting to know a lot of grassroots organizations that are directly involved in trying to trying to get our country back on the rails. Right? Because we're off the rails right now for sure, and everybody knows that.
• 49:53
  Seth Holehouse: I unfortunately, I couldn't agree more.
• 49:57
  Speaker 2: You know, there's a lot. A lot of ways. So my principally, generalFlynn.com. So generalFlynn.com is my website. Yeah.
• 50:04
  And, you know, I got a lot of I got a lot of things going on, and I do need help. You know, I tell people, you know, every you know, I'll get I'll get called grifter and all kinds of stuff. But, you know, I mean, you put your you put yourself in a on the platform that I'm on purposely. I I am I am purposely doing this because I feel so inclined to do what I'm doing because I have children I have grandchildren I look at others I look I know. And so to do that it takes you know it takes resources principally money.
• 50:34
  And and I'm also involved in all kinds of legal battles. Some are directed against me, some I direct, you know, because I'm you know, I am gonna stay engaged in this lawfare. They wanna come after me. I'm gonna go after them. And and part of it is it's not just to go after them.
• 50:51
  It's to just to say, hey, look, you can't get away with this. We have to hold people accountable. So all that said, generalFlynn.com, there's different ways on there to, to support the kinds of things that I'm doing. I I always, you know, I'll always plug these these books, you know, the five g w and the AI book. These are two great.
• 51:11
  They're on there. You, you know, you buy them in in you buy them both, you get a we get give you a good deal. Yeah. So there's those are those are two of five books that I've written. You know, I I even top this these days the book I wrote in 2016, which is another bestseller.
• 51:27
  I'm a couple times bestseller. Field of Fight is another book, you know, and Field of Fight is yeah. It's a bottom left hand corner there, bottom right hand corner. You know, that's how to win the that's that's the Field of Fight, how to win the war against radical Islam and its allies. That was written in 2016, but it is a it was written as a timeless book.
• 51:48
  I didn't say this is what's happening now. I wrote it as a timeless book for what it is that we're engaged in as I spoke at the beginning of your show about sort of biblical times, spiritual times. Right? And and also in there I talk about how. The Arab world under the right leadership can actually solve many of its own problems right and needs to know and I say the Arab world but it's the Arab.
• 52:15
  Plus the Muslim world because I think that there's there's a people get lost in in Sunni Shia Arab. Know Persian I mean that the different. Different aspects Uzbeks, the Uighurs. I mean, all the different things that are that are the groups that are out there that are that are Muslim and people get lost in all that. So that book, Field of Fights, is still a great book.
• 52:39
  And so, anyway, generalFlynn.com and, and try to help me out. And, and if not, you know, God bless you all for for listening, and, thank you so much, Seth, for having patience and, getting me back on your show.
• 52:53
  Seth Holehouse: I really appreciate it. And one thing I'll say too, that there's a lot of people that, you you mentioned people saying grifter or whatever, and it's people that you don't know who they are, just some anonymous person online, and people have no idea what it takes especially as we talk about with the lawfare and how corrupt our government is for someone in a public position or someone with a face in front of a camera speaking to millions of people, what that cost is, you know, physically, financially. So I just, you know, I've met you many times backstage at the reawaken and many other times. And I have to say that I just, I think that what you're doing is incredibly important. And it's good to have someone with your position, your reach that is talking about the important issues.
• 53:36
  I mean, go find anybody to come talk about Epstein Island. You know, that's that's you're not going to have it. But these are important issues that we have to get out. So I thank you for what you're what you're doing.
• 53:47
  Speaker 2: Yep. Well, you very much there, brother. And we'll, we'll see you on the next, the next reawaken or we'll do this again soon. Okay?
• 53:56
  Seth Holehouse: All right. Thank you and God bless. All right, folks, I hope you enjoyed the interview. We've now got a very important fifteen minute economic update with my good friend Doctor. Kirk Elliott.
• 54:07
  Kirk, man, it's so good to have you on. Thank you so much for being here today.
• 54:11
  Speaker 3: Oh, it's so great to be with you.
• 54:13
  Seth Holehouse: So for the folks that are watching, this is gonna be a little bit different than our typical show with Kirk where we might go for forty five, fifty, even minutes, even an hour. What we're going to be doing is we're gonna be having more often shows, but really short snippets. So it's probably closer to ten minutes. That way, we can bring you just a really, really important financial and economic update in a way that you don't have watch a forty five, fifty minute show to get the gold nugget out of that interview. So, Kirk, let's go ahead and dive right into what we wanna talk about today, which is the debt of government.
• 54:48
  Speaker 3: I mean, this is a big deal, and and we've heard kind of roundabout stories about how bad the debt is. Right? When when you've got McCarthy who is ousted as Speaker of the House because he passed the debt ceiling, right, without just a blank check for forty five days, and the financial hardliners and the GOP said, Off with your head. We're done. And then you go through the whole rigmarole of Scalise and Jim Jordan saying, well, we're hardliners.
• 55:18
  We're going to draw a line in the sand, and then they get ousted. Right? That's like, no, we don't want you either because we need to spend money. We need to actually have a printing press that will continue to stimulate the economy because it's an election year coming up. Right?
• 55:33
  No politician wants the government to shut down, wants to run out of money when they're trying to get reelected. That's bad PR, right? So to me, you've got like two parts of the GOP. You've got the ones that are like the Trump Reagan type GOP. Said, let's not curtail some of the spending, Right?
• 55:53
  And then you've got the other ones, which I would say are kind of like the uniparty, you know, in cahoots with the the democrats and cahoots with the world economic forum, the globalist saying, we want this other agenda. We're going to print money like there's no tomorrow and create a dependent class. So there's this battle, this ideological battle happening. To me, it all boils around to debt. So if you look back to the beginning of our country, 1776, and I think this whole this little story here, it's just gonna take me a couple minutes to go through, is gonna kind of freak people out a little bit.
• 56:30
  Because 1776 to 1980, when Reagan became president, the debt was just under a trillion dollars. It was like 900 and something billion. So that took two hundred and four years to go from zero to 900 and something billion dollars of debt. K? Now just last month alone, in the last thirty days, we added $600,000,000,000 to the federal debt in thirty days.
• 57:01
  So it took two hundred and four years to accumulate 900 and something billion. We just did 600,000,000,000 in thirty days. It's like, man, spending like drunken sailors. You know, I hate to to take Stanley Druckenmiller's thunder, right, because he just we had a had a interview where he said, the government needs to stop spending like drunken sailors and cut entitlements. Why would he say cut entitlements?
• 57:28
  Is that really a big chunk of our federal spending? Yeah. It really is. When you look at Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, food stamps, women, infant, children programs, it's it's over 80% of everything that we bring in as a country every year. 80%.
• 57:47
  So there's absolutely zero way politicians will ever balance the budget because you can't run the country on the 20% that's left. And if you actually do balance the budget, you're going to take away you're going to cut off the hand that feeds you, your votes. Right? So it's an awful thing to say about politicians, and there's some good ones in here. But overall, they stopped looking at people as people, and they started looking at people as votes.
• 58:12
  And therefore, they're not going to take away. It's really easy to give. It's really hard to take away, which is why I don't think that we are going to actually see a reduction in spending. We're not going to see a reduction in inflation for quite some time because you you look at what's coming up in 2024, an election year. The BRICS nations add six out of nine of the largest oil producers in the world, which means they're no longer gonna use the US dollar as the petrodollar.
• 58:42
  They're gonna use their own currencies. There's no demand for US treasuries, which means they're gonna have to print their way out of all these expenses. That's gonna cause inflation. Ultimately, interest rates are gonna have to rise. That's when they print money like there's no tomorrow adds to the federal debt that's already mushroom clouding and growing parabolically and exponentially.
• 59:04
  It's like, this is a problem that I don't think politicians know how to fix.
• 59:10
  Seth Holehouse: And this chart right here, this is from Statista says well, if look at this, is and then this is from May of this year where they're showing the debt at 31 and a half trillion, which now I think is what? Over 33,000,000,000,000. Right? I mean if look at that so
• 59:26
  Speaker 3: it's yeah. It's up a couple trillion since May.
• 59:29
  Seth Holehouse: And just looking at the rise from 1966 when they first, you know, started tracking on this particular chart, obviously, it wasn't zero. But compared to over 30,000,000,000,000, it was basically zero. And it just I mean, where is it in? That's the question that I have with this is, what does this lead to? And what does that mean to the average person in America that's got a four zero one k?
• 59:55
  They're just trying to work. They've got their some money in the savings account or whatever. And they're just trying to survive. What does all this debt mean to us?
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 3: So the only reason we could have all this debt is because we are the world's reserve currency. We were the petrodollar, that we could have built in demand for our currencies. That now just changed. Right? With the emergence of the BRICS nations, I it it's hard to blame everything on BRICS, you know, but but yet they're actually stripping away demand for our currency.
• 1:00:27
  The problem is ours because we spent money that like, there is no tomorrow. But now this is a pendulum shifting moment that they're taking advantage of. So to me, when you look at it, if we don't have the world's reserve currency status and we have to have discretion in our spending, what does that make us the equivalent of? Every other country in the world that wasn't the reserve currency. Look at Venezuela.
• 1:00:51
  Lost demand for their currency internationally. They now go through massive hyperinflation. Look at Zimbabwe. Look at Argentina. Look at any country.
• 1:01:02
  Look what's happening in Japan. Right? They're not the world's reserve currency. They're they're the yen is now collapsing. Their real estate is collapsing.
• 1:01:11
  They've gone through decades of an inflationary recession, and it's just ugly. I mean, it's so bad in Japan. They have to have multigenerational home loans just for people to afford them. I mean, that's how bad the inflation has gotten. It's like we think it's like a thirty year mortgage.
• 1:01:31
  Try adding an eighty year mortgage or ninety year mortgage, right? It's like you have to bring in multi generations of families to actually finance a house. So this is the world that we're entering into now, none of us that are alive today have know what it's like to live in that world because we became the world's reserve currency in 1944. Right? So so even if you were born that year, you're you're well over 80 years old right now.
• 1:02:01
  Right? So so you don't most of the people in America do not know a world where we're not the reserve currency, and it's about to change. So historically, reserve currencies never last. Like, a % of the time they fail. We just happen to be alive when when our reserve currency is going to fail.
• 1:02:21
  And it just means our standard of living, our way of living needs to change. And who does this impact the most? Politicians who can't just willy nilly go on spending sprees, add $600,000,000,000 to the foreign currency because it's viewed as monopoly money all over the world. This is problematic moving forward.
• 1:02:41
  Seth Holehouse: So basically, the same way that 02/2008, we saw the real estate bubble, right? In many ways, it was the subprime mortgages and all that, but it was really, it was almost criminal activity behind the scenes in the banking industry that led to that particular bubble bursting, you know, tech industry, you know, around 2thousand,.com. Whereas now, is it that we're entering into a stage of, like, bubble is actually the debt, like the bubble is the giant massive amount of money that underpins everything in our society. So if that pops, which you can only blow up a balloon for so long, then everything falls out. Is that correct?
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah. So the question is, this balloon is going to pop, but is it gonna be like a slow leak where you, like, with a scissors, the part where you blow it up? Are you just gonna cut that a little bit and it slowly comes out, or are you just gonna prick it with a with a pen and it just explodes? Right? This is what we don't that it's not gonna be a slow leak.
• 1:03:40
  It's going to be a pop, and it's gonna burst, and and it's gonna be one of those more immediate things. And you're gonna have mainstream media say, what? The economy is just collapsing. We didn't see this coming. It was a black swan.
• 1:03:52
  It's like, oh my word. What do we do? Right? And stock markets are it's like, no. We saw this coming.
• 1:03:58
  It's called debt and lowering wages and rising taxes and rising interest rates all added together, it's not hard to see what the final outcome is going to be. But confidence in all of this and say, okay, we can see that this is coming. So how do you then protect yourself from it? Right? This is God gives us the wisdom to understand the times that we're living in and then we'll know what to do moving forward.
• 1:04:24
  The sons of Issachar in Chronicles. It's like they understood the times and they knew what to do. God highlighted them because of that. It's like there's other people that are just mentioned in lineages. It's like somebody begat somebody and somebody begat somebody.
• 1:04:38
  Oh, then there was the sons of Iscar who understood the times and knew what to do. And then that keeps going on with the lineage. Why does he point certain people out? Right? It's because he wants us to focus on that.
• 1:04:51
  That's why you you emphasize anything. So he wants us in today's world to understand the times and know what to do. That's how we can live with a smile on our face and have confidence moving forward because we're using biblical wisdom to move forward, and that will bring peace in the midst of the storm. I'm not saying that the storm is gonna go away, and that's why we have peace. I think we're gonna have peace in the midst of it because we're using biblical wisdom to get through it.
• 1:05:21
  Seth Holehouse: Makes sense. And so how does that apply into the this the the nuts and bolts of this?
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 3: Nuts and bolts, I would say a couple of things. Number one, if you have debt, you need to get out of debt. Rising interest rates in a world of high debt, right? It's like you're going to be pinched more and more every single month. You've been talking about another notion that for a long time with more preparedness.
• 1:05:49
  Have food. Have your own food supply. Have a garden. Have something where when push comes to shove, you are a little bit more self sustaining. Right?
• 1:05:59
  So investment wise, I mean, those are two easy things to do. Investment wise, it's also easy, but you need when you identify these trends, get out of the things that are coming down and get into the things that are going up. Unsustainable debt, inflationary pressures, political chaos, geo say Apple stinks or Google stinks or Facebook stinks or General Motors is great. It's like, I I don't care. I'm talking about general rule of thumb when you have these foundational issues of a of a collapsing economy and a shrinking economy where spending is down, the stock market is a function of revenue.
• 1:06:39
  That's what it is. So if revenue is down because people can't spend, well, I would probably get out. Right? Bond market is terrible in a rising interest rate environment because the value of bonds comes down as interest rates go up. Not saying bonds are bad, saying they're bad for right now.
• 1:06:56
  They were great for the last forty years as interest rates are coming down since the early eighties. So therefore, those two are kind of out for the time being, in my opinion, as an economist. I'm not an investment advisor. I'm not talking about individual things here, but broad picture view, I would get out. What I would do is allocate into strength, which would be tangible assets like gold, like silver.
• 1:07:23
  Real estate is a tangible asset, but here's an important distinction to make. All else being relation, the problem with real estate is it's debt based. You have to finance it to buy it usually because nobody has that much cash laying around. So if interest rates go up and wages come down, it's hard to qualify for it. Therefore, those prices, you're gonna have this anchor on it from it doing what it should do in a time of inflation.
• 1:07:49
  Where nondebt based tangible assets like gold and silver, you don't have that anchor. So that's how I would protect myself in an inflationary world like we're in. With gold and silver, you can own them through an IRA, non IRA, you take delivery of it, you store it. Everybody's different. Depends on how you own it, but we can help people navigate through that.
• 1:08:11
