‘The Deep State is in Real Trouble Now’

Apparently in country’s that banks are linked to the London banking system. Sounds like ground zero for that particular system anyways

“It really does get you thinking about our whole banking system”.

Let’s hope so.

This has turned out to be quite a fruitful day. Pretty sure no one saw this coming. The volume is on the lighter side but I suppose the volume can pick up as this rally progresses.

What I find very interesting is that there is more volume in Sprott’s fund PSLV than there is in SLV, and while the volume in SLV is below average, the volume in PSLV is heavy. I guess there are some smart players out there that know there’s no beef in SLV and want a fund that actually has the metal. Are they starting to take delivery in PSLV to cover the paper promises? Or do they just want to hold the phyzz?

So, I guess the battle lines are set at $3400 and $39, both looking to breach new highs.

The shares don’t have great volume either, but they sure have good price action. I think if the HUI busts through 440, it opens up a way to old highs.

Looks like the dollar might have failed to turn north and might just resume its downtrend. At least that’s what it looks like to me since it’s failed to sustain a move above the 50 dma.

It’s awful early in the week to get too bullish and silver is approaching a 70 RSI which always seems to mean a selloff. Gold isn’t too far behind with an RSI near 60. Nonetheless, I like to see them moving together. Gold has lagged silver since mid-May in a big way.

BTW, Bitcoin ended down. Maybe the Captain’s Bitcoin/GDX chart warrants a closer look.

Something to think about getting cash out for a event ‘ like war” especially with brokerage accounts investments. A global event they would have other things to worry about than what the insurance covers. They may not even be there. I could never get a straight answer about that cuz it didn’t occur to them but thanked me for bringing it up lol. I’m not sure they know either.

The republicans and democrats USED to be a one global party. Trump ran as a republican because third parties never win. But in reality Trump started a new party now known as a new republican party.

The last time I voted it was for Ross Perot 1992 because he wanted to take our country back. All the presidents after JFK were totally useless I was in manufacturing and they all  sold us out with enormous imports after 1969.

Trump has been ruining the global commies. By the way Senator Joe McCarthy was RIGHT in the 1950s regarding communists infiltrating our gov’t. Its all over for globalization, I’m happy about the future, you seem to be focused on the past.

People are very confused and delusional these days with all the pressures the psychos in charge are creating.

It’s good to know this has happened before and there are solutions.

The best one is to stop cooperating with these a**holes and get your immediate situation (locally) under control.

Stop empowering the commies in DC et al. (central planners)

It’s the only way to get your life back.

You can’t vote them out … because it’s one party … and they use Kabuki to fool, placate, and keep the public distracted.

Cheers

Thanks for posting that China video.

I watched it (at 1.75 speed) right after watching Ipso’s Australian video (bank has zero cash), which made the China more concerning.

While I have no doubt that this is the plan the Globalists have in mind for humanity, I think we need to be prudent in exposing their scheme.

I did a quick search on the China news – it does not appear to be true…. yet 🙂

Below is Copilot’s answer:

COPILOT’s reply >>>

There’s been a lot of buzz online about China allegedly shutting down ATMs and seizing cash, but the reality is more nuanced.

🇨🇳 What’s Actually Happening

• China has been reducing the number of physical bank branches and ATMs due to the widespread adoption of mobile payments and digital banking.
• The Digital Yuan is being rolled out gradually, especially in pilot programs for government and state-owned enterprise employees.
• Some banks have daily withdrawal limits and require appointments for large cash withdrawals, which can make access to cash more difficult.

🚨 No Verified Reports of Nationwide Cash Seizures

• Claims of “city-wide cash seizures” and “forced digital currency” appear in heavily edited or sensationalized videos online, but credible news sources do not confirm any government-mandated seizure of personal cash or a blanket ATM shutdown.

💥 Past Scandals

• There was a Ponzi-like banking scandal in Henan province in 2022–2023, where deposits were frozen due to fraud at several rural banks. This led to protests and a loss of trust in some parts of the banking system, but it was not a nationwide policy.

So while China is definitely shifting toward a cashless society, the idea of sudden, sweeping cash seizures isn’t backed by reliable evidence. Want to dig into how the Digital Yuan works or how mobile payments have reshaped daily life there?

I think that extremely long video is very old news. The global powers that controlled the USA, has pretty much ended. I believe there was a falling out among them and some of them broke away and joined and promoted Trump to create an independent USA like it USED to be before 1913.

The Fed Res Act of 1913, (USA losing independence and getting absorbed into a global commune-ity) in my view, ended with 9/11/01, confirmed in the 2008 financial crisis and confirmed again with Trump getting elected. Its OVER for global powers thats why they tried every dirty trick in the book to get rid of him.

Re long videos and stories, my wife used to say…..The bigger the explanation the bigger the lie. When a person knows something very well he can explain it briefly with a minimum of words, maybe try to find shorter videos next time?

The Global Club or global commune was abandoned by the USA due to natural negative causes (USA losing money) and Trump with his friends, decided to make the USA push the trend along, to prosperous again.

Western governments claim to be models of democracy, and demonize their geopolitical adversaries as “authoritarian”, but empirical evidence shows that the USA and European countries are oligarchies dominated by economic elites and large corporations. Billionaire Donald Trump is the perfect symbol of this, but he’s by no means the only one. Ben Norton explains.

As George Carlin said it best “It’s a big club – and you ain’t in it.”

If Bitcoin can do it, why can’t some Gold Company/Vault/Miner do the same?

A rhetorical question.

Everyone knows the answer.

… little by little … and then all at once … your freedom is gone … no more cash … leaving only the digital prison.

China’s CITY WIDE CASH SEIZURES Begin — ATMs Frozen, Digital Yuan FORCED Overnight – YouTube

Quotas … fines … controls … you become a slave.

Go ahead … continue to ignore it … they are coming for you too … they just hide it better here.

Get past cognitive dissonance … Stockholm Syndrome … and denial.

Stop helping them … resist the digital revolution … it’s a scam to steel your freedom.

Go local folks … find people you can trust close to home and support them … in all important aspects of life.

Trust is everything in such matters.

“How can you go to a bank and not be able to get your own money out?”

As part of the globalist agenda to roll out CBDCs, Australian banks are refusing to allow customers to make cash withdrawals.

“Effective Immediately”: Shipping Line Suspends EV Cargo Due To Lithium Battery Fire Concerns

U.S. shipping and navigation services company Matson surprised customers in recent days by announcing new policies that halt all electric vehicle shipments due to the fire risk posed by lithium-ion batteries. This comes after the Morning Midas—a RoRo carrier transporting EVs and hybrids—erupted in flames early last month in the Pacific and subsequently sank.

Shipping news website The Maritime Executive reports that Matson abruptly suspended the transport of EVs and plug-in hybrids, citing growing safety concerns over lithium-ion battery fires in a letter to clients. The new shipping policy took effect immediately and impacts trade routes across the U.S. mainland, Hawaii, Alaska, and Guam.

Is destroying the immune system using the tolerance built up over time of being exposed to something like bee stings or chronic pain meds  to block or calm the immune system to respond when needed by increasing the levels of IgG4…

	Watch now Pfizer Vaccine Triggers MORE IgG4 Than Moderna But WHY? What the Latest Research on IgG4 Class Switching Reveals About the mRNA Vaccines Dr Philip McMillan Jul 21 READ IN APP Every time we think we’ve unraveled the complexities of the immune response to COVID-19 vaccines, new data emerges that forces a reevaluation. This week, a new study published on July 16th, 2025, did exactly that—highlighting a striking difference between the Pfizer (BNT162b2) and Moderna (mRNA-1273) vaccines in how they influence antibody class switching. Once again, the focus is on IgG4—an antibody subclass typically associated with immune tolerance, not immune activation. We see IgG4 in beekeepers, for instance, who develop tolerance after repeated stings. It’s a protective adaptation that prevents overreaction to repeated exposure. But what happens when that tolerance mechanism is applied to a virus like SARS-CoV-2, which the body needs to clear, not ignore? Upgrade to paid The Study’s Findings: Pfizer Induces More IgG4 This latest research compared immune responses in individuals boosted with either Pfizer or Moderna. The key finding? Both vaccines induced IgG4, but Pfizer did so more significantly. That surprised many of us. Moderna uses more mRNA (100 µg vs. Pfizer’s 30 µg)—so logically, one might expect it to cause more immune tolerance. But it didn’t. The IgG4 response was markedly higher in the Pfizer group. So why would a lower-dose vaccine lead to more immune tolerance? Siebner, Alex S., et al. “Class switch towards IgG2 and IgG4 is more pronounced in BNT162b2 compared to mRNA-1273 COVID-19 vaccinees.” International Journal of Infectious Diseases. The Molecular Detail That May Hold the Answer Digging deeper into the vaccine design reveals a crucial difference: the 5′ untranslated region (UTR) of the mRNA. Pfizer uses a globin-derived UTR—a sequence originally from human hemoglobin mRNA, chosen for its stability and efficient translation. Moderna, in contrast, uses a proprietary UTR optimized for strong immune activation. This 5′ UTR acts as a “start signal” for the ribosome, guiding how spike protein is produced. The theory is that Pfizer’s globin UTR enables longer-lasting, lower-intensity spike protein expression. Over time, this prolonged exposure may nudge the immune system into a tolerogenic state, increasing IgG4 production. It’s a small molecular detail—but one with large immunological consequences. Why Does This Matter? Earlier studies have already shown that repeated mRNA vaccination can lead to IgG4 making up as much as 45% of the antibody profile, compared to just 1% after natural infection. This latest paper adds that Pfizer’s formulation may be driving this shift even more strongly than Moderna’s. One study even found that elevated IgG4 levels were associated with an 80% relative increase in breakthrough infection risk. Why? Because IgG4 is non-inflammatory. It blocks rather than destroys. Your immune system stops treating the spike protein as a threat—and starts tolerating it. Could Spike Protein Persist as a Result? That leads to the next question: If the body becomes tolerant, could the spike protein linger? A growing body of data suggests that in some individuals, spike protein can still be detected in the blood nearly two years after vaccination. This isn’t true for everyone—but it’s true for enough people to raise serious concerns. The implication is that Pfizer’s vaccine design may be promoting a form of long-term antigen exposure, coupled with a muted immune response. That’s a setup for chronic immune confusion—or worse, immune exhaustion.

Gold and silver doing OK too. PM shares solid.

Dollar and rates sliding. Dollar set to open below the 50 dma. 10 yr. down 5+ bips to 4.37%

SM futures up. Bitcoin up $1400. Oil flat. Something for everyone I guess.

I guess we’ll just have to see if things hold up all day.
