Are Risks from Bank “Bail-ins” Increasing? “Shadow Banks” are now 49% of Global Assets

Back in 2023 when several U.S. Banks, mostly banks with high exposure to Silicon Valley Big Tech accounts, started to collapse, I published some articles explaining the concept of bank "bail-ins", which are the opposite of bank "bail-outs" where the U.S. Government bails out "too-big-to-fail" banks that collapse, as we saw in 2008. Bank bail-ins are the opposite, and allow banks to secure non-FDIC insured funds in accounts of bank depositors. Most Americans are unaware of the fact that laws are now in place to seize funds on deposit in U.S. Banks from account holders. There was a threat in 2023 of the total collapse of the U.S. banking system, but it survived, at least temporarily. Talk is again picking up about the possibility of bank bail-ins here in 2025 in Trump 2.0. Much of this chatter is coming from "Gold Bugs" who make their living selling gold, as a hedge against inflation and against bank bail-ins. One video that is making the rounds in the alternative media this week is from ITM Trading, where Taylor Kennedy claims that the "shadow banking" system holds over $250 trillion in risky "assets" like derivatives, which she claims are now 49% of global assets, making bank bail-ins a very real possibility. To understand more about bank bail-ins, here is a Fortune article I used in some of my articles in 2023, but now has apparently been taken down and is only available on Archive.org. Here is another good explanation of bank bail-ins from the Ontrack Financial Group. Also published in 2023 was David Webb's work titled "The Great Taking" which was made into a book and documentary. David Webb has an incredible Bio, and came from a family deeply involved in Freemasonry. He was a successful Wall Street manager for years, and now lives in Switzerland where he owns farmland. He is originally from Cleveland. I would consider Webb a true “whistleblower” who knows the intricacies of Freemasonry and the world’s financial system, through previous experience.

Two Historic Meetings on May 8, 2025: The 80-Year Anniversary of the End of WW II

Today, May 8, 2025, is the 80-year anniversary of "Victory Day", and the end of World War II. Two "historic" meetings took place today, one in Washington D.C. between UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and U.S. President Donald Trump, and one in Moscow between China President Xi Jinping and Russia President Vladimir Putin. If you live in an English speaking country you probably heard a lot about the one in the White House today, but not much or nothing about the one earlier in the day that took place in Moscow. Also happening today, David Blond, who was a senior economist at the Pentagon during the Carter and Reagan administrations, issued a dire warning in an article published in the Financial News today: "Empty shelves, for-lease signs and job layoffs point to recession by summer."

Has Child Sex Trafficking Really Been Eliminated by Robert F. Kennedy at HHS?

In case you missed it last week, Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS), Robert F. Kennedy Jr., announced at the White House that he had identified HHS as the "principle" cause of child sex trafficking in the U.S., and that he has now eliminated it. I have seen no published documentation by HHS to back up Secretary Kennedy's claims. Perhaps one of our readers who knows how to file Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests could send one to Mr. Kennedy at HHS and find out what the source of his claims are? Oh, but wait. Did Peggy Hall at The Healthy American just recently publish something about Mr. Kennedy eliminating all the FOIA offices at HHS? Unless Mr. Kennedy was referring to the Child Welfare Program funded by HHS, which includes Foster Care, Adoption and CPS (Child Police Services), I have no idea what, if anything, he actually eliminated. So I decided to do a search for cases here in 2025 where foster parents were arrested for sexually abusing and trafficking children. Hmmm.... Looks to me like child sex trafficking through HHS is alive and well here in 2025. Here are some recent reports I found, and while it is true that most if not all of these cases started before the Trump Administration, please note how most, if not all, of these foster homes funded by HHS where these horrors happened, ARE STILL OPERATING TODAY!!

Florida Health Department Claims Pfizer COVID Shot Killed “Over 470,000 Americans” but They’re Still Available to Inject into Children Throughout Florida

A new study published in "preprint" at medRxiv that looked at COVID-vaccinated people in Florida, is going viral today in the Alternative Health media. Florida's Surgeon General, Joseph A. Ladapo, is one of the co-authors of the study from the Florida Department of Health. This is a typical headline about this study that I am seeing today: "Florida Health Department Confirms Pfizer Vaccine Killed Over 470,000 Americans." I have read most of the study, and the study itself does NOT claim that "470,000 Americans" have been killed by the shots. For one thing, the study only looked at data in Florida. They seem to be taking the number of "all-cause mortality" numbers following Pfizer's COVID shot and then comparing it to the same parameters following the Moderna COVID shots. They then extrapolate that data and multiply it times 50 assuming that the numbers are similar in all states. It is still an alarming study, but the one question that nobody seems to be asking after the publication of this preprint study is, NOW WHAT? Shouldn't there be an immediate BAN on all COVID shots, especially the Pfizer ones, in at least the State of Florida since the study was conducted by the Florida Department of Health and Dr. Joseph A. Ladapo? Shouldn't criminal indictments be issued against EVERYONE who participated in distributing these bioweapon shots and injecting them into millions of Americans? The obvious answer to these two questions is a resounding YES! But it won't happen, because Joseph A. Ladapo is a Big Pharma lap dog, and so is everyone around him, including Governor DeSantis, and the "Father of the Pfizer COVID Shot," President Donald Trump, and his sidekick at HHS, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. As I write this today, ANYONE living in Florida can still schedule a COVID shot for themselves, or for their children, as these dangerous shots are still being injected into the Florida population every day, including babies as young as 6 months old.

U.S. Congress to Vote on Bill Criminalizing Boycotts of Israel as Houthis Bomb Tel Aviv Airport

The U.S. House of Representatives is scheduled to vote on H.R. 867 tomorrow, Monday, May 5, 2025. H.R. 867 is known as the "IGO Anti-Boycott Act." This bill seeks to expand existing anti-boycott laws to penalize Americans who participate in boycotts of Israel or Israeli settlements that are promoted by international governmental organizations such as the United Nations or the European Union. If passed, the legislation would impose civil penalties of up to $300,000, with criminal fines reaching $1 million and prison sentences of up to 20 years for individuals supporting such boycotts. The bill is sponsored by pro-Israel Congressmen Mike Lawler and Josh Gottheimer. This bill is scheduled to be "considered under suspension of the Rules of the House of Representatives during the week of May 5, 2025." Under suspension, floor debate is limited, all floor amendments are prohibited, points of order against the bill are waived, and final passage requires a two-thirds majority vote.

Trump’s New World Order and the Coming Retail Apocalypse – News Roundup for This Week

As this week saw the end of April and the beginning of the month of May, it was a week full of news in our rapidly changing world. From the coming retail apocalypse, to President Trump declaring he should be the next Pope, to an explosive new documentary aired on the BBC exposing Zionist Settler attitudes, to Big Tech continuing to inflate the AI bubble, to potential plans for civil war in the U.S.,  here is a round up of the week's news from our Telegram Channel.

How American Christians Traffick Babies Through Overseas Adoption – “The United States has Taken More Adopted Children than Every Other Country Put Together”

Most Americans don't know that the current foreign Adoption Industry in the U.S. started in the 1950s, when Evangelical Christians petitioned Congress to allow them to adopt more children from Korea during the Korean War. Harry and Bertha Holt, based out of Oregon and with six children of their own, wanted to adopt more children from Korean orphanages in South Korea. U.S. law at the time only allowed a couple to adopt 2 children from outside of the U.S., so the Holts worked with the U.S. Congress to pass a new law allowing them to adopt 8 children from South Korea. The Holts gained widespread media coverage, and they soon developed their own adoption agency to help Americans adopt Korean babies. Being Evangelical Christians with support from many evangelical leaders, such as Billy Graham, the Holts tried to place the Korean children with Christian families. Today, Holt International is a $28 million a year operation working in many countries besides Korea, and one of the largest adoption agencies in the world. But from its inception in Korea in 1955, the majority of children adopted out to the U.S. are not orphans. The children adopted out of Korea after the Korean war were mostly children from unwed mothers, many of them babies conceived by U.S. military personnel who were there during the war. Unfortunately, 90% of these Korean mothers did not want to give up their babies, but were pressured to do so. Camille Bromley, writing for The Verge, has just published an extraordinary investigative report about how the same thing happened with "Operation Baby Lift" after the fall of Saigon at the end of the Vietnam war. Everyone in America living in the U.S. in the 1970s, especially Evangelical Christians, saw "Operation Baby Lift" as a wonderful thing. But now many of those adopted children are adults, and they paint a very different picture from the one that was portrayed in the media at that time. Bromley must have spent months, if not more than a year, researching for this article and interviewing people, and I encourage everyone to read it, as it is part of our national history, and further documentation that many American Christians are child traffickers all in the name of "saving the orphans" whether the child is an orphan or not.

Secretary of HHS Kennedy LIES About HHS Funding Child Sex Trafficking – What Really Happened to Virginia Giuffre the Epstein Victim?

HHS Secretary Kennedy announced this week at a Trump cabinet meeting commemorating Trump's first 100 days that "HHS had eliminated child trafficking." Ah, but only for the children who went missing under Biden apparently. This is a total lie, because it has been well known for years now that the United States is the #1 country in the world when it comes to child sex trafficking, and that most of the children who are child sex slaves in the U.S. came out of the U.S. Foster Care system, which is funded by HHS. In 2019, under Trump 1.0, Mike Pompeo, who was Trump's Secretary of State, even admitted this. So is Secretary Kennedy eliminating funding for the Child Welfare system which includes the nation's Foster Care system, the world's #1 child trafficking agency in the world?? Hardly. In fact, he is actually INCREASING it! James Corbett of the Corbett Report just published a very informative interview with Nick Bryant about Virginia Giuffre's tragic life and death, as well as the White House's lies about releasing the "Epstein Files." Nick Bryant knew Virginia Giuffre personally, and as a journalist has written about child sex trafficking for many years, and wrote one of the best books about the Franklin Cover-up Scandal of Child Sex-Trafficking in Boys Town, Nebraska. This interview with Nick Bryant is the most solid information I have found so far about Virginia Giuffre's alleged suicide. And Virginia was also a result of the U.S. Foster Care system as a child.

First 100 Days of Trump’s Zionist Regime – DEATH to Free Speech and the First Amendment

Among all the articles today talking about Trump's first 100 days in office, the headline that first caught my attention this morning was about how the White House came out today and publicly humiliated one of America's most well-known businessmen, Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon.com. And while I am no fan of this American billionaire, it was the reason why President Trump and his White House Press Secretary gave for publicly chastising him that so shocked me: He was accused of telling the TRUTH about Trump's tariffs and its affect on products sold on Amazon.com. There was no controversy whatsoever about whether or not what Bezos was being accused of saying was true or not, just the fact that he dared to say it, and to suggest he would list tariff costs next to prices on Amazon.com. He was being publicly shamed from the most powerful platform in the world, the White House briefing room, for allegedly TELLING THE TRUTH. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters: “This is a hostile and political act by Amazon.” For Trump and his Zionist regime, "truth" is not what is important today. What is important is supporting everything President Trump does, whether one agrees with it or not, and not daring to criticize him. This event today in publicly shaming an American businessman for telling the truth, is a perfect summary, in my opinion, of Trump's first 100 days: Agree with me or be punished. This is Donald Trump's Zionist regime, which is being run by a Dictator who believes he is a king. The U.S. Constitution was written to prevent just something like this from happening by limiting the powers of the Executive Branch, which includes the Bill of Rights and the First Amendment which protects freedom of religion, and freedom of speech, including the right to publicly criticize the U.S. Government. Under Trump 2.0, these Constitutional rights are now under siege, as "Freedom of Speech" is solely defined by what Trump and his administration says, and "Freedom of Religion" is being redefined as "You cannot criticize Israel because they are the 'Chosen People' and have a biblical right to the land of Israel and everything else they do", and if you don't agree with that religious view, then you are an "antisemite" who does not belong in this country, and if you are here, then you should be locked up or sent to the terrorist prison in El Salvador.

BRICS Nations Accelerate Efforts to Establish New International Payment System to Fight Back Against U.S. Tariffs

Pepe Escobar, the Brazilian international journalist, recently returned from his visit to China where he spent time in Shanghai and Hong Kong, home to the two largest ports in China. He was interviewed by Danny Haiphong, and I am including the interview here, which I listened to this past weekend. Escobar states: "Trump managed to do what I would say (is) the impossible, to antagonize 1.4 billion Chinese, at the same time. And there's no turning back. So Trump cannot expect a phone call from China." He explains how BRICS, which will meet this summer in Brazil, is now accelerating their plans to implement a new international payment system so countries can bypass the U.S. banking system and the U.S. dollar, as they begin to exclude the U.S. market due to these high tariffs. Escobar mentions the analogy that President Trump is using for his tariffs, which is that the U.S. is a "store" and that any country who wants to buy U.S. goods in this "store" has to meet Trump's pricing based on tariffs. Escobar responds: "But what he doesn't realize is that nobody wants to buy anything in this store anymore" as the BRICS nations begin to reshape their supply chains and exports. Also covered in this interview is the amazing announcement from Russia that the Kursk region has now been 100% liberated, as Russia announces, for the first time in public, that they did so with the help of North Korean military forces. He also explains how Iran is a huge part of BRICS plans for the future, and the implementation of the new Silk Road trade initiatives.
