Red Alert from Grandma

A few days ago, the Chinese Government seized all savings accounts in the country, by "redefining" the life savings of hundreds of millions of Chinese people as "investment products" belonging to the government.

This is what happens when the government rules you, instead of you ruling the government.

Then, the Vatican announced that it was ending all foreign investments and returning the assets to the Vatican Bank.

What do they know (or suspect) that you don't know?

They know that the present Bull Market is a Pit Bull Market instead.

The Vermin are "running up" the stock markets of the world by "self-investing".

In other words, the corporations listed on the various exchanges, and the hedge funds, and even more importantly, all the pension and investments slush funds, are propping up the stock market by buying their own stocks, thus generating what appears to be demand for their shares and ever- increasing stock prices. This apparent profit-making opportunity lures naive and unwary investors into the market.

At a certain pre-arranged moment, the big banks and other major players will pull the plug and exit stage left, leaving the corporation shareholders and smaller investors and insurance companies to pick up the gargantuan losses.
Then, they, the ones that planned the disaster with malice aforethought, will come back in and buy up everything for nothing.

This is what they did in 1929, so it's not exactly rocket science to see what they are doing again.

I wish it weren't so, but.... there is no other reason in this world that already grossly overvalued stocks would be selling like hot cakes.

My guess is that the Chinese Government is bulking up its cash assets position to be ready to swoop in and buy everything in sight for pennies on the dollar after the crash. And the Vatican is simply taking its bat and ball and going home to sit out the extra innings.

If I had any stock market investments I would be pulling out now, taking my chits and going home just like the Vatican. And if I had a long term investment strategy, I would be paying off debts and bulking up my cash position with both gold and credit, just like China.

So what can you do? If you are in the stock market --- get out. If you are a producer and have firm futures contracts you have to stay in and pray. And if you are like me, shaking your head, sit back and watch the show.

This is only possible because people don't pay attention to history, don't know about institutional investors, and don't realize that Central Banks were created to manipulate commodities --- including world currencies, which are commodities, too.

My guess for the Pull the Plug date is toward the end of the harvest cycle, so that all those food commodity futures contracts are exercised BEFORE the market goes kafluey. There's a reason the 1929 Crash came in late October.

The Monsters pay off the Farmers in grossly inflated dollars and get to keep what's important -- the actual food commodities, which will predictably skyrocket in price.

You may have been wondering about the USDA's policy of paying farmers not to produce crops and even actively going out and demanding after the fact that the farmers destroy their crops already planted (???) --- well, wonder no more.

Food shortages mean guaranteed profits for the Rats. Thanks to this, food will be scarce and in many places, it will simply disappear into black markets. You will have to wear a trench coat and talk to Julio if you want to buy anything.

Water shortages planned for the Western United States means the same thing.

I think we should just cut to the chase and start paying visits to the CEO's of all the banks and corporations right now, since the Secretary of the Army, Christopher Miller, isn't doing his job and preventing this from happening.
What can we "little people" do to defend ourselves from this hideous evil on high?

You can't go wrong stashing cartons of booze and cigarettes, though those can be seized by the government corporations using their "regulatory powers" over alcohol, tobacco, and firearms.

But there are a surprising number of other things that become big ticket items in a crash. BIC lighters, sacks of charcoal, salt, spices, coffee, sterno, toothpaste, baking soda, soap, vinegar, MREs.,ammo, tools, tampons, packets of yeast, dry milk, all the little things of life that vanish in a crisis and which "your" government has done nothing to stockpile for you.

In fact, your actual "government" --- which has been a foreign military junta in place since 1860, has done nothing but make it worse, deliberately, according to plan --- to kill off as many Preferential Creditors as possible.
First, they deployed their "Uniformed Officers" ---- all the doctors and nurses and dentists who have been illegally conscripted under Title 37 of the Federal Code --- and yes, these medical professionals have been used to kill millions of innocent, trusting people who came to their hospitals for help, bought their "patent medicines", and who took their vaccinations in good faith.

Now, they are going to crash the stock market and profit from all the death, destruction and chaos that entails.

Maybe it's our own fault. That's all we've trained these men to do --- create death and destruction in order to make money off of it, both going and coming. I suppose it's inevitable that they'd come back around full circle and trash us, too.

They are going to stand there in their uniforms dripping with medals, turn both palms upward to the sky, pretend that they, the U.S. Military, had nothing to do with this debacle (even though they have been in charge of it since 1863) and they are here to help....

Help themselves, that is.

While we are the topic of U.S. Military betrayals and lies, here's another good one. Australia just announced that the Australian Defense Force will be merging with and will be under the command of the U.S. Military. They are just getting around to announcing what has been self-evident since 1902, if you look at the money going out of our pockets to pay the Australian Military to do the horrific things that have been done to the people of Australia. Expect the rest of the former Commonwealth and occupied nations of Europe and Japan to follow.

Why? Because we've been paying all their Defense Forces, too. For many decades. Which means that the U.S. Military has been de facto occupying all those countries, too.

And why are they creating this genocide in Australia? Because they already sold the mining resources and land mass to China. They have to make room for the new tenants.

LOL. And you wonder why there is any threat of attacks and reprisals and bad feelings overall? You are falling for all the Hope Porn about White Hats and Alliances?

No, no, no, children, the current events tell a far different tale, a tale in which the guilty U.S. Military is attempting to avoid detection of its role and paper over its responsibility for 95% of all the bad things that have happened in the past 161 years. The only truthful statement coming out of their mouths is that, yes, everything is under the control of the U.S. Military.
As you can see, that's not exactly good news.

Increasingly, the storefront of politicians is wearing thin and we see our own dear Generals and Admirals --- Americans all working for the Queen, not us, and being paid with our money by SERCO, INC., a British Quartermaster ---- doing all this outrageous crap to tear the guts out of Australia and America and everywhere else, under color of law and authority that was never granted to them.

And their excuse? Ah, they are teaching us a lesson, rubbing our noses in it, so that these same mistakes can never be made again? Well, the actual mistake was when their corporation's "President" Abraham Lincoln was elected under conditions of deceit, and it's all been downhill since then.
Prepare for impact. Expect no help from the military and pray for no further harm. Now that their role as the puppet master and enforcer is fully exposed, it's harder for them to pull their crap, but who knows? Maybe they will just come out of the closet, fangs bared, and admit that they -- and the Brits, of course --- have been at the bottom of every dog pile since 1860.

Batten the hatches, kids, and send what help you can to help us bring forward your cause and bring you relief. We are at least telling the truth and trying hard to introduce some shreds of honor and sanity into the worldwide discussion.

Musk Turns On Starlink to Save Iranians from Regime’s Internet Crackdown

Elon Musk, the world’s richest man and a visionary behind SpaceX, has flipped the switch on Starlink, delivering internet to Iranians amid a brutal regime crackdown.

This move comes on the heels of Israeli strikes targeting Iran’s nuclear facilities, as the Islamic Republic cuts off online access.

The former Department of Government Efficiency chief activated Starlink satellite internet service for Iranians on Saturday following the Islamic Republic's decision to impose nationwide internet restrictions.

As the Jerusalem Post reports, that the Islamic Republic’s Communications Ministry announced the move, stating, "In view of the special conditions of the country, temporary restrictions have been imposed on the country’s internet."

This action followed a series of Israeli attacks on Iranian targets.

Starlink, a SpaceX-developed satellite constellation, provides high-speed internet to regions with limited connectivity, such as remote areas or conflict zones.

Elizabeth MacDonald, a Fox News contributor, highlighted its impact, noting, "Elon Musk turning on Starlink for Iran in 2022 was a game changer. Starlink connects directly to SpaceX satellites, bypassing Iran’s ground infrastructure. That means even during government-imposed shutdowns or censorship, users can still get online, and reportedly more than 100,000 inside Iran are doing that."

During the 2022 "Woman, Life, Freedom" protests, Starlink enabled Iranians to communicate and share footage globally despite network blackouts," she added.

MacDonald also mentioned ongoing tests of "direct-to-cell" capabilities, which could allow smartphone connections without a dish, potentially expanding access and supporting free expression and protest coordination.

Musk confirmed the activation, noting on Saturday, "The beams are on."

This follows the regime’s internet shutdowns, which were triggered by Israeli military actions.

Adding to the tension, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed the Iranian people on Friday, urging resistance against the regime.

"Israel's fight is not against the Iranian people. Our fight is against the murderous Islamic regime that oppresses and impoverishes you,” he said.

Meanwhile, Reza Pahlavi, the exiled son of Iran’s last monarch, called on military and security forces to abandon the regime, accusing Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in a Persian-language social media post of forcing Iranians into an unwanted war.

Starlink has been a beacon in other crises. Beyond Iran, Musk has leveraged Starlink to assist people during natural disasters and conflicts.

In the wake of hurricanes and earthquakes, Starlink has provided critical internet access to affected communities, enabling emergency communications and coordination.

Similarly, during the Ukraine-Russia conflict, Musk activated Starlink to support Ukrainian forces and civilians, ensuring they could maintain contact and access vital information under dire circumstances.

The genius entrepreneur, is throwing a lifeline to the oppressed in Iran, and the libs can’t stand it.

Conservative talk show host Mark Levin praised Musk’s action, reposting a message stating that Starlink would "reconnect the Iranian people with the internet and put the final nail in the coffin of the Iranian regime."

"God bless you, Elon. The Starlink beams are on in Iran!" Levin wrote.

Musk, who recently stepped down from leading the DOGE in the Trump administration, has apologized to President Trump for past criticisms, including his stance on the One Big Beautiful Bill.

GENIUS Act lets State banks conduct some business nationwide. Regulators object

The Senate passed the GENIUS Act for stablecoins last week, but significant work remains before it becomes law. The House has a different bill, the STABLE Act, with notable differences that must be reconciled. State banking regulators have raised strong objections to a provision in the GENIUS Act that would allow state banks to operate nationwide without authorization from host states or a federal regulator.

The controversial clause permits a state bank with a regulated stablecoin subsidiary to provide money transmitter and custodial services in any other state. While host states can impose consumer protection laws, they cannot require the usual authorization and oversight typically needed for out-of-state banking operations.

The Conference of State Bank Supervisors welcomed some changes in the GENIUS Act but remains adamantly opposed to this particular provision. In a statement, CSBS said:

“Critical changes must be made during House consideration of the legislation to prevent unintended consequences and further mitigate financial stability risks. CSBS remains concerned with the dramatic and unsupported expansion of the authority of uninsured banks to conduct money transmission or custody activities nationwide without the approval or oversight of host state supervisors (Sec. 16(d)).”

The National Conference of State Legislatures expressed similar concerns in early June, stating:

“We urge you to oppose Section 16(d) and support state authority to regulate financial services in a manner that reflects local conditions, priorities and risk tolerances. Preserving the dual banking system and respecting state autonomy is essential to the safety, soundness and diversity of our nation’s financial sector.”

Evolution of nationwide authorization

Section 16 addresses several issues beyond stablecoins, including preventing a recurrence of the SEC’s SAB 121, which forced crypto assets held in custody onto balance sheets. However, the nationwide authorization subsection was added after the legislation cleared the Senate Banking Committee, with two significant modifications since then.

Originally, the provision applied only to special bank charters like Wyoming’s Special Purpose Depository Institutions or Connecticut’s Innovation Banks. Examples include crypto-focused Custodia Bank and crypto exchange Kraken in Wyoming, plus traditional finance player Fnality US in Connecticut. Recently the scope was expanded to cover most state chartered banks with stablecoin subsidiaries, possibly due to concerns about competitive advantages.

Simultaneously, the clause was substantially tightened. The initial version allowed state chartered banks to provide money transmission and custody services nationwide for any type of asset, which would include cryptocurrencies. Now these activities can only be conducted by the stablecoin subsidiary, and while Section 16(d) doesn’t explicitly limit services to stablecoins, the GENIUS Act currently restricts issuers to stablecoin related activities.

However, the House STABLE Act takes a more permissive approach, allowing regulators to decide which non-stablecoin activities are permitted. If the House version prevails in reconciliation, it could result in a significant expansion of allowed nationwide banking activities beyond stablecoins.

Is it that bad?

As originally drafted, the clause seemed overly permissive.

The amended clause makes sense for stablecoin issuers. They want to have a single regulator and be able to provide the stablecoin services throughout the United States. But it also leans into the perception outside of crypto that this is just another form of regulatory arbitrage.

The controversy over Section 16(d) reflects concerns about creating a regulatory gap that allows banks to operate interstate without the oversight typically required from either federal or state authorities. As the two Congressional chambers work toward reconciliation, lawmakers must decide whether stablecoin legislation should include provisions that effectively reduce traditional banking oversight requirements.

Dubai regulator VARA classifies RWA issuance as licensed activity
Virtual Asset Regulatory Authority (VARA) leads global regulatory framework - makes RWA issuance licensed activity in Dubai.

Real-world assets (RWAs) issuance is now licensed activity in Dubai.

~ Actual law.
~ Not a legal gray zone.
~ Not a whitepaper fantasy.

RWA issuance and listing on secondary markets is defined under binding crypto regulation.

It’s execution by Dubai.

Irina Heaver explained:

“RWA issuance is no longer theoretical. It’s now a regulatory reality.”

VARA defined:

- RWAs are classified as Asset-Referenced Virtual Assets (ARVAs)

- Secondary market trading is permitted under VARA license

- Issuers need capital, audits, and legal disclosures

- Regulated broker-dealers and exchanges can now onboard and trade them

This closes the gap that killed STOs in 2018.

No more tokenization without venues.
No more assets without liquidity.

UAE is doing what Switzerland, Singapore, and Europe still haven’t:

Creating enforceable frameworks for RWA tokenization that actually work.

Matthew White, CEO of VARA, said it perfectly:

“Tokenization will redefine global finance in 2025.”

He’s not exaggerating.

$500B+ market predicted next year.

And the UAE just gave it legal rails.

~Real estate.
~Private credit.
~Shariah-compliant products.

Everything is in play.

This is how you turn hype into infrastructure.

What Dubai is doing now is 3 years ahead of everyone else.

Founders, investors, ecosystem builders:

You want to build real-world assets onchain.

Don’t waste another year waiting for clarity.

Come to Dubai.

It’s already here.
