1. The $21 Trillion Missing from U.S. Government Accounts
Overview
Catherine Austin Fitts highlighted a shocking pattern of unaccounted-for federal spending: over $21 trillion in “undocumentable adjustments” by the Department of Defense (DOD) and Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) between 1998 and 2015.
Key Details
- Professor Mark Skidmore’s Study: After Fitts’ reports, Skidmore and his students at Michigan State University verified the numbers using publicly available financial statements.
- 2015 Example: In Obama’s last full year, $6.5 trillion in one year went missing from the DOD.
- Total: The missing funds equaled the official U.S. debt at the time—$21 trillion—suggesting the federal government may have borrowed and secretly redirected this amount without public knowledge.
FASAB 56
In 2018, the government implemented Federal Accounting Standards Advisory Board (FASAB) Statement 56, allowing classified spending and secret books—legally enabling the concealment of financial flows.
Financial Coup d’État & Privatization of Governance
The Coup Model
Fitts described a post-1995 shift: elites gave up on the public governance model, moved funds into black budgets, and began building a private, parallel control infrastructure.
Where the Money Went
- Underground facilities and black projects.
- National security state and classified tech.
- Private intelligence and surveillance (e.g., Palantir, Elon Musk-linked companies).
The Central Role of the New York Fed
The New York Federal Reserve, despite legal violations (no audited financials from federal agencies), continued transacting for the U.S. government. This implicates not just government, but primary dealers (Wall Street firms) who knowingly sell Treasury bonds under fraudulent financial reporting.
“Just Do It” Governance
Fitts warned of a “Nike method” being applied: re-engineering the U.S. government without public debate or lawful transparency. This includes:
- Siphoning wealth from communities via mortgage fraud and toxic lending.
- Undermining financial sovereignty by embedding corporations like BlackRock and Palantir into federal operations.
Doge, Elon Musk, and the Control Grid
Doge (Department of Government Efficiency)
Fitts sees Doge as a tool to gather high-quality financial data, especially IRS, Treasury, and HHS records—not to reform spending but to build a digital control infrastructure.
Elon Musk’s Role
Musk’s companies (SpaceX/Starlink, Tesla, Neuralink, Grok AI):
- Form the skeleton of a global surveillance/control system.
- Gain privileged access to U.S. government contracts and data.
- Funnel government data and power into privatized, AI-driven enforcement models.
The Red Button Story: The Real Problem is Us
Fitts told a story about asking an audience if they would press a “Red Button” to end narcotics trafficking—which supports up to $1 trillion in annual dirty money flows. Only 1 or 2 of 100 said they would, citing fears of losing government checks, higher taxes, or market crashes.
Insight
This reveals a deeper problem: Americans are complicit because they benefit from the corrupt system. Until we choose to push the metaphorical button and embrace sacrifice, nothing changes.
The Slavery System: CBDCs and Programmable Money
Fitts emphasized that the ultimate control mechanism is digital money:
- Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) + digital ID = programmable slavery.
- Control what you can buy, where you can go, what you can say.
- Money becomes conditional, monitored, and disposable at the whim of the state.
The Real Cost of Corruption: The Great Poisoning
The slow kill of Americans via toxic food, water, pharmaceuticals, and policy-induced chronic illness:
- HHS budget is $1.8 trillion—more than twice the military budget.
- Rising health costs are largely due to preventable chronic illness tied to “The Great Poisoning.”
- Declining life expectancy diverges dramatically from other industrial nations.
2. The Illusion of Sovereignty: Who Really Governs the U.S.?
Surface Government vs. Shadow Governance
Fitts asserts that the U.S. government as it appears—Congress, the White House, federal agencies—is largely a performance theater, while real power resides in unelected financial entities and private global networks.
- Key Institutions Holding Power:
- Federal Reserve System – Especially the New York Federal Reserve, which acts as the de facto bank of the U.S. Treasury.
- Private Central Banks – Including the Bank for International Settlements (BIS), the “central bank of central banks,” which has sovereign immunity and operates outside of national laws.
- Defense Contractors & Intelligence Networks – Entities like Lockheed Martin, Palantir, and others act as unelected administrators of global surveillance and enforcement tools.
The “Box” Presidents Operate In
Fitts explains that U.S. presidents do not hold sovereign power. They’re “in a box”:
- Surrounded by financial dependencies (like needing campaign funds from central banking or weapons lobbies).
- Controlled by private interests, threats, or potential blackmail.
- They don’t have authority over monetary or fiscal policy in a meaningful way. Even if a president wanted to reform the system (as JFK did with debt-free greenbacks), it’s a death sentence—figuratively or literally.
“Trump is in a box. The last president who thought he had control was John F. Kennedy. And we see what happened there.”
The End of the Constitutional Republic
According to Fitts:
- The U.S. no longer has financial sovereignty because it cannot issue debt-free currency.
- It no longer has information sovereignty, as communications and AI infrastructure (e.g. Starlink, Neuralink) are controlled by private contractors.
- The shift from public governance to private corporate control represents a full-blown financial coup d’état.
Control Has Been Outsourced
Fitts describes how:
- Key government data (IRS, Treasury, Social Security) is being privatized and funneled into the AI infrastructure of companies like Elon Musk’s Grok and Palantir.
- These companies are shaping a privatized enforcement and surveillance regime.
- Even defense and national security functions are outsourced to contractors who have more operational power than Congress or the Pentagon.
Continuity of Government (COG) & Parallel Civilizations
Fitts briefly discusses COG (Continuity of Government):
- A classified plan to preserve government during existential threats.
- Has become a tool to justify massive underground facilities, black budgets, and untraceable spending.
- These “parallel civilizations” built underground are not for citizens—they’re for elites who plan to survive crises the public won’t be told about.
The Real Role of Congress
Congress is not exercising its constitutional role. Why?
- Members often have dual loyalties (e.g., dual citizenship, or pledges to AIPAC).
- They sign secret agreements and are tied to global banking networks rather than their constituents.
- Budget sessions are ceremonial. As Fitts put it: “The Sunday talk shows were like ‘Yackety-yack.’ But the real deal was happening with the money—and it was invisible.”
The “Just Do It” Method of Government Overhaul
Fitts warns that the elite are re-engineering U.S. governance in secrecy, bypassing laws:
- No legislative debate or public vote.
- Government is being reshaped through private tech, backdoor contracts, and unaccounted funds.
- They believe democracy is an obstacle to managing a global empire and controlling populations.
The Path Back to Sovereignty
Fitts argues that reclaiming sovereignty doesn’t start in Washington—it starts with the people:
- Use cash instead of digital transactions.
- Withdraw support from corrupt banks and corporations.
- Support state and local leaders pushing back on digital control grids.
- Invest in people and local economies to bypass centralized systems.
3. The Control Grid & Surveillance Infrastructure: A Digital Slavery System
What Is the “Control Grid”?
The control grid is a fully integrated, digital surveillance and enforcement system being rapidly built around the globe—especially within the United States. According to Fitts, its purpose is not convenience, but total control.
She defines it as:
“An electronic network of digital telecommunications and information systems that surveils, tracks, and controls financial transactions, movement, speech, and behavior.”
Key Components of the Control Grid
Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs)
- A replacement for cash that allows programmable control over all money.
- Enables governments or central banks to:
- Track every transaction.
- Restrict what you can buy, where, when, and how.
- Deactivate funds if you “misbehave” (e.g., protest, dissent, or violate carbon quotas).
“If you leave your house when we say you can’t, your money won’t work.” — Fitts paraphrasing BIS General Manager Agustín Carstens.
Digital ID + Biometric Surveillance
- Includes facial recognition, real-time GPS tracking, and biometric databases.
- These IDs are interoperable globally—they are not simply for “safety,” but to attach your digital life to your body.
- Real ID, pushed through the DMV, is a U.S. version designed to integrate with global surveillance systems.
AI + Social Credit Systems
- Grok AI, Palantir, and other advanced platforms harvest your behavior, purchases, communications, and location data.
- These systems assign and adjust “scores” to citizens and businesses based on compliance, beliefs, health decisions, etc.
- Violating “social norms” or dissenting from official narratives could reduce your score, restrict travel, or even shut off your access to basic services.
Satellites, Starlink & Total Geographic Control
- Elon Musk’s Starlink, originally marketed as a communications tool, also enables global surveillance, geofencing, and networked control.
- Combine Starlink with Neuralink and AI—and you get a system where thought, speech, and movement can be tracked and potentially manipulated.
“We’re talking about a level of invasiveness tyranny has never achieved before.” – Fitts
Data Consolidation and the Role of DOGE
- Under the Trump administration, DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) was framed as a watchdog group.
- Fitts alleges it was used to:
- Aggregate high-quality government data from Treasury, IRS, Social Security, and Medicare.
- Funnel it into AI systems like Grok, enabling precise control infrastructure.
The goal? Convert the entire federal apparatus into a programmable system where “the rules are centrally enforced—down to the individual.”
Lab-Grown Meat, Health Regulation, and Food Control
- Fitts links synthetic food systems to the control grid:
- To market lab-grown meat, you need to control food supply, distribution, and behavior.
- They achieve this through regulation, censorship, and subsidies, removing consumer choice under the banner of health or climate.
- The same applies to mRNA technology in vaccines—not for health, but for control and tracking via biotechnology.
Control Is Built One Person at a Time
The system isn’t enforced by foreign armies—it’s local, voluntary, and financial:
- “Control is one person at a time,” says Fitts.
- Employees of banks, tech companies, and defense contractors go to work every day, enabling this system without realizing (or resisting) its purpose.
- You might use digital ID for travel, use a digital wallet, accept a Real ID, or work for a contractor building surveillance tech.
Each small compromise becomes a brick in the digital prison.
Why Cash & Decentralization Are Revolutionary
Fitts strongly advocates:
- Keep using cash and checks—these are analog escape hatches from the surveillance grid.
- Reject digital-only financial systems, Real ID, and biometric enrollment.
- Support local banks, honest credit unions, and businesses.
- Invest in real relationships and community trust.
The Grid Is Not Coming—It’s Already Being Assembled
What makes it dangerous isn’t any one technology—but their integration:
- Digital ID + Programmable Money + AI + Satellites = 24/7 digital slavery.
“These systems are all very convenient… until they snap together. Then, you’re in a digital concentration camp.”
4. Elon Musk’s Role: Architect of the Digital Control Grid
Elon Musk Is Not a Free Speech Hero
While many believe Musk champions free speech—especially after acquiring X (formerly Twitter)—Fitts asserts that this image is a “rouge,” or front. His companies are not neutral tools for innovation, but pillars of a rapidly forming control infrastructure.
“What Elon is building is the control grid—and making it look fashionable.” – Catherine Austin Fitts
The Portfolio of Control: Musk’s Key Companies
a. Starlink
- Marketed as satellite internet, Starlink is a global surveillance system.
- Allows for geolocation, tracking, and precision enforcement anywhere on Earth.
- Enables control of movement and communication, even in remote or disconnected areas.
“What is Starlink? An all-global communications and surveillance system.”
b. Tesla
- Electric vehicles are less independent than gas-powered cars. They:
- Can be remotely turned off.
- Gather massive amounts of user data.
- Interface with apps that track and score driver behavior.
- Tesla cars are “computers on wheels” contributing to the smart grid—not freedom.
c. Neuralink
- Brain-computer interface technology.
- Touted as a medical innovation, but Fitts warns it can:
- Collect, manipulate, and potentially alter thoughts, emotions, or behavior.
- Interface with AI and satellites (like Starlink), creating an internal surveillance mechanism.
d. X (formerly Twitter)
- Has become a data extraction engine.
- To monetize your account, users are prompted to submit biometric and surveillance data—often sent to Israeli-based firms.
- X is an “intelligence operation” gathering preferences, affiliations, and patterns for AI-driven social engineering.
Grok AI and Integration with Government
- Musk’s Grok AI, used within the DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) framework, has gained access to sensitive government data:
- IRS records
- Social Security
- Treasury systems
- Possibly Medicaid/Medicare
- This data provides the “training sets” for building high-resolution AI profiles of every citizen.
- The implication: Musk’s AI systems are foundational to the upcoming financial and behavioral control network.
“If I were building a control grid, I’d go to Treasury, IRS, and Social Security. That’s what Musk did under DOGE.”
Elon Musk as the World’s Largest Defense Contractor
- Through SpaceX and Starlink, Musk is:
- Deeply integrated with Pentagon operations.
- Recipient of massive public contracts.
- Providing battlefield tools (Ukraine, Israel, Gaza).
- Starlink is used by governments and militaries, not just civilians. The implication is that his companies serve hard power (force), not just infrastructure.
DOGE: The Trojan Horse of Control
- DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency), led by Musk, was marketed as a fraud-fighting initiative.
- Instead of cutting bureaucracy, Fitts believes it served to:
- Aggregate highly valuable government data.
- Feed AI systems like Grok and Palantir.
- Construct the digital infrastructure for a centralized enforcement and surveillance system.
Despite its name, DOGE became a vehicle for:
- Privatizing public data.
- Empowering unelected technocrats.
- Accelerating AI-powered governance and surveillance.
Manipulating the Right-Wing Base
- Fitts emphasizes that MAGA followers often support Musk, seeing him as a disruptor.
- But while they think he’s “anti-globalist,” his businesses are central to the globalization of digital control.
- Through public-private partnerships, he’s profiting while constructing a technocratic cage.
“He’s building the infrastructure for a slavery system—and branding it as freedom.”
Global Control Through Local Compliance
- Musk’s companies are leveraged in every U.S. county.
- X harvests data.
- Tesla builds trackable vehicles.
- Starlink offers precision location mapping.
- Neuralink ties the brain to the grid.
- Together, they comprise a full-spectrum dominance system—from orbit to nerve.
Elon Musk Is Not a Lone Genius—He’s a Key Facilitator
Rather than liberating the public, Musk’s empire consolidates technological power in service of financial, military, and social control.
His tools:
- Track behavior
- Enforce restrictions
- Monitor health and thoughts
- Punish dissent
His position: At the center of the digital control grid.
5. The Military & Warfare State: Engine of Control, Debt, and Destruction
Catherine Austin Fitts exposes the U.S. military-industrial complex as the enforcement arm of a global financial control system. It does not merely defend America—it extracts wealth, enforces obedience, and expands empire.
War as a Business Model
“The U.S. economy is deeply dependent on organized crime and war.” – Catherine Austin Fitts
Fitts argues that the U.S. financial system is built on war. Key points include:
- Endless wars are not about security but money laundering, control, and resources.
- The military budget ($857 billion/year) is outpaced only by healthcare costs—another form of “slow kill.”
- Warfare justifies secrecy, black budgets, and financial manipulation (e.g., the $21 trillion in missing money).
The Soft Power Shell is Collapsing
Historically, U.S. hegemony relied on soft power (NGOs, USAID, democracy promotion), but that mask is fading:
- Gaza, Ukraine, and other current conflicts reveal raw, hard power.
- Soft power (e.g., “We’re helping women and building democracies”) gave moral cover to occupation and theft.
- Now, military force is used openly to enforce global obedience and facilitate resource extraction.
Financial Control Tied to Warfare
- The New York Fed and Primary Dealers raise debt for government spending, much of which funds the Pentagon.
- The military’s inability to pass an audit is ignored by Congress, while other departments are scrutinized.
- Fitts warns that the U.S. debt trap—enabled by the military—is used to shift control from elected government to private banking elites.
“The New York Fed borrows $21 trillion, puts it in the Treasury account, and it disappears out the back door. Then we owe it back to our pension funds.”
Underground Bunkers & Continuity of Government
- Fitts theorizes that trillions in missing money may have funded:
- Private underground cities and bunkers.
- Black budget projects.
- Private weapons systems.
- These preparations indicate elites preparing for a global reset, natural disasters, or societal collapse.
- “Continuity of Government” plans—kept secret from Congress—may serve private survival, not public protection.
Militarized Surveillance & Control Grid
- The Pentagon cooperates with Elon Musk’s Starlink and other tech platforms to create:
- Global surveillance.
- Precision targeting (military and civil).
- AI-backed population control.
- Fitts says the goal is not national defense, but enforcement of the unipolar global dollar model.
The Unipolar Model Is Failing
- The U.S. dollar and military dominance relied on global cooperation, compliance, and subsidies.
- As that breaks down (multipolar world, BRICS, resistance in the Middle East), control is maintained by force.
- Fitts: “Gaza is a method. If it works there, it will go global.”
Trump and the War Machine
- Trump’s administration cut soft power and increased military spending.
- While promising to “drain the swamp,” Trump expanded the Pentagon budget and shifted Doge “savings” to the military.
- Fitts sees this as swapping the middleman for direct militarization: “They didn’t cut spending. They re-allocated it—into the warfare state.”
Local Complicity in Military Extraction
Fitts insists the military-industrial complex operates in every U.S. county:
- Defense contractors, drug trafficking, and surveillance contracts enrich local elites.
- Military pensions, defense jobs, and grants keep localities dependent on destruction.
“This system runs one county at a time… the narcotics, the fraud, the weapons—it’s local.”
The Pentagon’s Unaccountable Power
- Donald Rumsfeld revealed $2.3 trillion missing on September 10, 2001—overshadowed by 9/11 the next day.
- Despite decades of missing funds, no accountability or audits have succeeded.
- The Pentagon is the world’s largest unaccountable financial actor, yet few Americans question it.
Political Slavery via Military Subsidy
“We want the story of ‘I am good’ and our government check.”
Fitts explains Americans tolerate war and fraud because it fuels their pensions, aid, and stock markets.
- The public is morally sedated by the illusion of benevolent warfare.
- The truth: American prosperity is increasingly funded by blood money.
The Military is Not for Freedom—It’s for Control
In Fitts’ view, the U.S. military is no longer a national defense institution. It is a:
- Global enforcement mechanism
- Financial siphon
- Surveillance facilitator
- Tool of technocratic tyranny
6. Government Corruption & the Black Budget
From the Jimmy Dore and Catherine Austin Fitts Interview
The Black Budget: The Shadow Financial State
Catherine Austin Fitts reveals a parallel financial system—the “black budget”—funded by covert appropriation, fraud, and criminality. It exists beyond constitutional oversight and is run through agencies like the Department of Defense (DoD) and HUD.
- “Since 1998, the federal government has refused to produce audited financial statements as required by law.”
- As of 2015, $21 trillion in unaccounted “adjustments” had been reported—equal to the entire U.S. national debt at the time.
A Parallel Government
Fitts asserts that the black budget has allowed for the creation of a parallel, private government:
- Funded through secret channels.
- Staffed by contractors, not elected officials.
- Enabled by laws like FASAB 56 (2018), which legalized keeping two sets of books: one public, one secret.
“The federal government has taken its finances dark. That means you no longer live in a constitutional republic.”
The Federal Reserve’s Role in Facilitating Corruption
The New York Federal Reserve, though a private bank, holds the main account for the U.S. Treasury. Fitts describes how:
- Money raised from bond sales by primary dealers goes into this account.
- Those funds can then be rerouted without accountability.
- The Fed continues to transact with the government despite blatant violations of transparency law.
Controlled by Banking Elites
- The U.S. issues debt-based currency, instead of just issuing currency directly.
- This creates an endless interest-payment treadmill that enriches the private banking system.
- Fitts: “Why do we owe $36 trillion? Because we issue money through debt, rather than sovereign credit.”
Congress is Complicit
The black budget is protected by Congress, not fought by it:
- Primary dealers (banks like Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan) never disclose red flags to investors.
- Congress funds agencies that fail audits, such as the DoD.
- Fitts: “If this were a corporation that refused audits, the bank would stop transactions. But not the Fed.”
Black Budget Infrastructure
What has this hidden money funded? Fitts outlines multiple possibilities:
- Underground cities and facilities for elites.
- Private AI, weapons systems, and surveillance platforms.
- Continuity of Government (COG) facilities—not to protect the public, but to protect the elite.
“They’re not just funding war. They’re building a parallel civilization—underground and out of sight.”
The DOJ and IGs Were Gutted
- Fitts was personally attacked by the Department of Justice when trying to halt mortgage fraud.
- Under the Trump administration, 18 Inspectors General (IGs) were fired.
- These IGs were investigating agencies and companies—including Musk’s firms and Pentagon contractors.
Cover from Tragedy: 9/11 & the Patriot Act
- Donald Rumsfeld announced $2.3 trillion was missing from the Pentagon on September 10, 2001.
- The next day, 9/11 changed the narrative, and funding for secrecy skyrocketed.
- The Patriot Act exploded the black budget and made financial disclosure even harder to enforce.
The Public is Morally Compromised
Fitts highlights that the real enabler of this system is the American people:
- Most won’t “push the red button” to end narcotics trafficking and corruption.
- Why? They fear losing government checks, collapsing 401(k)s, and higher taxes.
“The problem isn’t that we won’t stop it—it’s that we won’t even go into the invention room to fix it.”
The Coup Already Happened
Fitts calls the financial shift a “just do it” coup:
- Elites stopped trying to fix the system.
- They extracted the wealth, funded the infrastructure of control, and enslaved the population through debt, disease, and distraction.
“They pulled the money out, broke the system, and replaced it with a surveillance state.”
Summary
The U.S. government is no longer governed by the Constitution in financial matters. Through a combination of:
- Covert accounting,
- Legal loopholes (e.g., FASAB 56),
- Complicit institutions (e.g., Fed, Congress),
- And distracted public dependency,
…it has created a black budget empire that siphons national wealth into elite hands, finances private war machines, and prepares for a controlled reset.
7. COVID-19 & Medical Tyranny
Insights from the Interview with Catherine Austin Fitts and Jimmy Dore
The Pandemic as a Catalyst for Control
Catherine Austin Fitts emphasizes that COVID-19 was not merely a public health crisis, but a vehicle to accelerate global financial and political control.
- The pandemic was used to justify sweeping emergency powers, lockdowns, and centralized restrictions on civil liberties.
- It served to shift public behavior, enabling acceptance of:
- Digital ID systems
- Cashless economies
- Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs)
- Mass surveillance and vaccine passports
“They used COVID to lock people down, shut down small business, and consolidate power into corporate monopolies.”
The mRNA Agenda: Technology as Tyranny
Fitts states unequivocally that mRNA technology is a weapon, not healthcare:
- It wasn’t about immunity—it was about injection-based control.
- She warns: “mRNA tech will kill a huge number of children.”
- Vaccines became a soft gateway into transhumanist experimentation and bodily surveillance.
“They will have the power to say, if you don’t get your child transgendered, we’ll cut off your money.”
Regulatory Capture: The System is Compromised
Jimmy Dore and Fitts highlight how public health agencies—FDA, CDC, HHS—are no longer operating in public interest:
- RFK Jr. and Dr. Marty Makary, previously outspoken against vaccine corruption, are now playing it politically safe.
- McCary, newly appointed to FDA leadership, refuses to say whether a healthy 12-year-old girl needs a 7th COVID shot.
Fitts: “He’s lying because he’s in the box… He’s not allowed to say the truth.”
Vaccine Pushers Under Threat
Fitts shares a chilling message:
- Anyone in government who opposes mRNA or vaccine profiteering risks losing their job—or their life.
- She personally experienced threats to her family for attempting to publish her book exposing government corruption.
“I got subtle messages: If you publish this in hard copy, we will kill someone in your family.”
Surveillance through Biometric Capture
Digital vaccination records, travel restrictions, and Real ID laws are all interconnected:
- They build the digital infrastructure for total biometric control.
- X (formerly Twitter), for example, asked her to submit biometric data to an Israeli company to monetize her account.
“The mRNA jab wasn’t just a medical product. It was a biometric Trojan horse.”
The Great Poisoning & Economic Fallout
Fitts coins the term “The Great Poisoning” to describe:
- A dramatic drop in U.S. life expectancy post-1995.
- The explosion of chronic illnesses, especially in children.
- A health care system financially dependent on a sick population.
“We’re spending $1.8 trillion a year on health care—twice the military budget—and most of it is driven by toxicity.”
Controlled Opposition: RFK Jr. and Marty Makary
Even leaders once known for vaccine skepticism are now constrained:
- RFK’s pick for Surgeon General (Dr. Casey Means) has no active medical license or residency.
- Dore and Fitts interpret her appointment as a controlled placement to neutralize genuine health reform.
- Critics like Dr. Naomi Wolf and Dr. Mary Talley Bowden feel betrayed by these political maneuvers.
“She [Means] would be fired or dead within 60 days if she truly opposed the system.”
The COVID Reset: From Pandemic to Permanent Tyranny
Fitts warns that:
- COVID was a dry run for programmable money, CBDCs, and behavior-linked access to resources.
- The pandemic normalized “emergency measures” that can be re-activated any time—climate, disease, or terrorism.
“The real virus was tyranny. COVID was just the carrier.”
Hope or Illusion?
Jimmy Dore admits he “got caught hoping” that RFK Jr., Trump, or Makary might reverse the tide. But Fitts reminds him:
- True change cannot come from within the box.
- Citizens must push back with:
- Cash usage
- Local food systems
- Honest health care providers
- Exit from corporate dependencies
Summary
Catherine Austin Fitts sees COVID-19 as the hinge between the free world and the totalitarian control grid. It was used to:
- Introduce surveillance tech
- Normalize bodily coercion
- Financially enslave nations
- Create irreversible psychological dependency on authority
“COVID was never just a medical issue—it was a pivot into permanent slavery unless we push back.”
8. Cultural Division & Social Engineering
From the Interview with Catherine Austin Fitts and Jimmy Dore
Divide and Conquer Is the Model
Catherine Austin Fitts emphasizes that division is not accidental—it’s strategic. Cultural conflict is engineered from the top down to weaken communities, destroy solidarity, and centralize power.
- Identity politics, racial conflict, and especially the LGBTQ+ movement are not grassroots; they are:
- Funded
- Promoted
- Weaponized by institutional actors (corporate, financial, and political elites)
“If I want to destroy a church, a community, a family—split it on gender, race, or sexuality. Financial chaos and emotional chaos always follow.”
Hijacking Legitimate Movements
Fitts warns that real communities are co-opted by elite interests to promote illegitimate ends.
- Example: LGBTQ+
- Once a legitimate call for dignity and inclusion…
- Now hijacked by corporate-state interests to promote transhumanist, transgender, and anti-family ideologies
- The “TQ+” part (especially Trans and Queer Theory) is used to fracture communities and enforce compliance through fear of cancellation
“You’re trying to take a legitimate community… and hijack it to protect organized crime or political tyranny.”
Church & Community Breakdown
Fitts shares real financial advisory experiences:
- Stable, happy churches were introduced to the “inclusion” agenda.
- Almost immediately:
- Churches split
- Financial resources dried up
- Resentment and confusion rose
- Both sides weakened
“Two struggling churches and a divided congregation are far easier to control than one strong one.”
Psychological Warfare through Propaganda
Jimmy and Fitts discuss how government and corporate media:
- Shape perceptions
- Control the Overton Window (what’s acceptable to think/say)
- Redirect moral outrage away from elites and toward each other
This includes:
- Controlled media narratives (e.g. anti-racism, climate hysteria, anti-Semitism panic)
- School curriculums and university policies promoting division
- Cultural double standards (e.g. private jets for elites, but 15-minute cities for citizens)
“We’re not fighting the power. We’re fighting each other. That’s the trap.”
Transgenderism as a Control Lever
Fitts takes a bold position: The transgender movement is not primarily about individual rights, but state authority over the family.
- Parents are now legally coerced to allow medical transitions or risk losing custody or public benefits.
- The state is claiming ownership of children via ideological compliance.
“If they want your kid transgendered, and you resist, they’ll cut off your money.”
Social Engineering through Crisis
Crisis after crisis—health, climate, war—creates a stress response that makes the public:
- Isolated
- Reactive
- Willing to accept more government control
Result:
- The breakdown of cultural resilience
- People crave safety, not truth
- State becomes parent, priest, and provider
Academia, Religion, and Media as Vectors
Fitts notes that the cultural institutions people used to trust are now the carriers of engineered division:
- Academia: Promotes ideology over inquiry
- Media: Enforces false narratives
- Religious institutions: Cowed by tax status, funding threats, or infiltrated by activists
“The new religion is conformity to false virtue. Real virtue is punished.”
Shaming, Cancellation & Fear
Social engineering today uses psychological punishment instead of physical force:
- “Anti-racist,” “anti-trans,” or “anti-science” labels shut down dialogue
- People are conditioned to fear ostracization more than they fear injustice or lies
Fitts calls this “emotional programming”: a form of mind control designed to make people censor themselves before the state ever has to intervene.
The Endgame: Fragmented, Disempowered Public
The goal of engineered division is simple:
- A disconnected, demoralized, mutually suspicious population cannot organize, defend itself, or even agree on the truth.
- The elites rule more easily when the people blame each other for society’s decline.
“They don’t need to jail us if we jail our minds.”
Summary
Catherine Austin Fitts asserts that cultural division is a deliberate strategy used by global financial and political interests to:
- Destroy natural communities
- Break down family, faith, and identity
- Confuse moral clarity
- Prevent unified resistance
“The real war is psychological. It’s not fought with guns. It’s fought with stories—and the stories are written to divide us.”
9. Political Theater vs. Structural Change
From the Interview with Catherine Austin Fitts and Jimmy Dore
The Illusion of Change
Catherine Austin Fitts insists that most political action is performative, not transformative.
- Campaigns, appointments, and public statements often amount to “theater” meant to appease voters and give the illusion of reform.
- True systemic change is rarely pursued because it would threaten deep financial interests, intelligence networks, and multinational corporations.
“Don’t judge the change by the speech—judge it by the budget.”
The “Box” of Power
Fitts repeatedly references the “box” every elected official enters:
- Presidents and agency heads are financially and structurally constrained.
- Even well-meaning leaders are trapped in a system controlled by:
- Central banks
- Private intelligence contractors
- Defense contractors
- Donor networks
“Trump is in a box. RFK is in a box. I was in a box when I worked in HUD. If you tell the truth, you’re fired—or worse.”
DOGE, RFK, and Appointments as Theater
Fitts and Dore dissect recent developments involving:
- DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency)
- RFK Jr.’s FDA and Surgeon General appointments
- Public backtracking on vaccine safety
Despite populist support and rhetoric, Fitts argues these appointments:
- Reinforce the pharmaceutical-industrial complex
- Reflect compliance with global digital and health control agendas
- Show that outsiders become compromised as soon as they enter institutional power
“RFK Jr. can’t say the truth about vaccines anymore. He’s inside the machine.”
The Real Drivers: Private Control
True change requires confronting:
- The New York Fed, which acts as the government’s bank but is owned by private interests.
- The primary dealers who sell bonds and finance federal spending—without disclosing corruption or unaccounted trillions.
- A shadow state where private corporations operate with sovereign immunity, often beyond public law or oversight.
Political parties do not control these levers—and elected officials rarely even talk about them.
Control Infrastructure Is Bipartisan
Both parties contribute to the rise of:
- Surveillance capitalism
- Military-industrial expansion
- Digital currency control
- Woke capitalism as a distraction from financial tyranny
“One party puts you in jail for misgendering someone. The other builds the jail.”
Theaters of “Good Intentions”
Fitts names several actions that look good but reinforce the system:
- Banning CBDCs (while allowing private programmable money through “stablecoins”)
- Cutting foreign aid (while expanding Pentagon spending)
- Hiring reformers (who then fall silent once in office)
“If your budget funds the machine, your speech means nothing.”
Financial Coup d’état Was the Real Shift
The real structural change already occurred—quietly.
- From 1998 onward, trillions were illegally extracted from the U.S. government.
- Agencies no longer produce auditable financial reports.
- The public now owes debts for money that disappeared through fraud and shadow networks.
This was not legislated or debated. It was done administratively, while politicians debated distractions.
“We live in a post-constitutional, post-sovereign America—but nobody told the voters.”
False Hope Is Part of the Control Grid
Fitts warns that hope in figureheads like Trump, Kennedy, or even Musk—without systemic reform—is dangerous.
- It pacifies people.
- It delays local resistance.
- It ensures that real change is always postponed until “the next election.”
“They don’t need to control you if they can just get you to wait four more years.”
Real Change Is Local, Not Federal
Fitts insists the only real resistance is:
- Personal sovereignty (what you eat, spend, support)
- Local governance (state and county-level resistance)
- Withdrawal of consent (boycotting corrupt systems)
She emphasizes:
- Use cash.
- Support local banks and farms.
- Divest from Wall Street and the surveillance economy.
- Build community trust.
“Real change starts with you pulling your money, your mind, and your time out of the system.”
Summary
Political theater maintains the illusion of democracy while unelected networks manage:
- Currency
- Technology
- War
- Medicine
- Media
“Our nation is no longer governed by elected officials. It’s governed by those who finance, control, and entrap them.”
10. Resistance and Sovereignty
From the Interview with Catherine Austin Fitts and Jimmy Dore
The Core Message: Real Power is Local and Personal
Catherine Austin Fitts drives home a critical truth:
Centralized politics is a trap. Decentralized personal and local action is the solution.
“Freedom is not granted from above. It is claimed from below—one person, one county, one act of refusal at a time.”
What Is Sovereignty?
Sovereignty, in her view, is autonomous control over your choices, resources, and destiny.
It involves:
- Financial independence (owning your means, not renting from debt systems)
- Information sovereignty (knowing the truth, not parroting propaganda)
- Health sovereignty (rejecting poisoned systems)
- Spiritual clarity (understanding good from evil without being manipulated by fear)
The Tools of Resistance
Fitts outlines specific practical actions that empower individuals to resist:
A. Use Cash
- Every swipe of a card fuels the surveillance economy.
- Cash resists data mining, tracking, and programmable control.
“A cash transaction is a private transaction. Digital is the leash.”
B. Bank Local
- Move money from central banks and Wall Street firms to credit unions or community banks.
- Stop funding your own slavery via the institutions that enable government corruption.
C. Divest from the Surveillance Economy
- Refuse to invest in companies that build the control grid:
- Big Tech (Google, Amazon)
- Big Pharma
- Defense contractors
- BlackRock and other ESG funds
D. Invest in Real Assets & People
- Own land, water rights, tools, and skill-building.
- Support trustworthy people and ventures around you.
“The currency of the future will be relationships of trust.”
Food, Water, and Medical Independence
- Source local, organic food. Know your farmer.
- Filter water and avoid toxic additives.
- Avoid mainstream medicine unless necessary.
Learn and invest in preventive care, naturopathy, and informed consent.
Fitts calls this “walking away from the poison.”
State and County-Level Resistance
National politics is gridlocked and compromised.
But states and counties can still push back.
Fitts encourages:
- Working with honest state legislators (like Tennessee’s Frank Nicely)
- Blocking REAL ID mandates
- Banning Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs)
- Protecting property rights and free association
“Freedom is not lost at the Capitol. It’s lost in your county if you don’t fight for it.”
The Role of Faith and Courage
Resistance requires moral clarity, community, and faith in something higher than the system.
She draws comparisons to:
- The Over-the-Mountain Men of the American Revolution
- Whistleblowers who sacrificed careers to tell the truth
- Citizens who pushed the red button—refusing to sell out for comfort
“The enemy isn’t them. It’s our refusal to stand up and act.”
Sovereignty Requires Rejecting the “Box”
Fitts and Dore highlight that Trump, RFK Jr., and even past insiders like herself are all “in the box”—limited by donors, fear, lawfare, or worse.
“They can’t press the red button unless we do first. They follow our example.”
The Moral Fork: Freedom or Convenience
Society now faces a clear moral choice:
- Embrace personal inconvenience for freedom, or
- Surrender sovereignty for digital convenience and security theater.
Fitts:
“The digital control grid is built on our apathy and consent. Shut it off with your choices.”
Don’t Wait for a Savior—Be the Resistance
- Every financial transaction, conversation, vote, and act of courage matters.
- If 100 million Americans used cash, pulled their savings from JPMorgan, and stopped funding the poison, the system would break.
Final Words: Courage in Community
Fitts concludes with the reminder that:
- You are not alone.
- You don’t need permission to act.
- You are the revolution.
“History is made by the people who refuse to comply. If enough of us walk away, the control grid collapses.”
11. Monetary Policy & Usury
From the Interview with Catherine Austin Fitts and Jimmy Dore
The Heart of the Problem: Usury and Debt-Based Currency
Catherine Austin Fitts bluntly states:
“The biggest financial fraud in the U.S. government is the fact that we issue our currency with debt.”
In simple terms:
- The U.S. government borrows money from the Federal Reserve and issues interest-bearing debt (Treasuries) instead of just issuing currency directly.
- This means every dollar in circulation is owed back with interest.
This debt-based system is a modern form of institutionalized usury—the profit from lending money at interest.
What Is Usury? Why Is It Dangerous?
Usury is historically condemned in Christianity, Islam, and other ancient traditions.
“Any civilization that legalizes usury is destined to fail.” – Fitts
Usury:
- Concentrates wealth and power
- Forces perpetual debt cycles
- Turns people, cities, and nations into slaves to creditors
Debt-Based Currency vs. Sovereign Currency
Alternative:
Fitts points to historical examples where governments issued currency without debt, like Lincoln’s “greenbacks” during the Civil War.
“We don’t have to borrow money. We can just issue it.”
“The problem isn’t fiat money. It’s who controls it and how it’s created.”
In the current model:
- The Federal Reserve (a private banking cartel) creates money by issuing debt.
- This debt must be repaid with interest…
- …which means more money must be created…
- …which creates an endless loop of borrowing and inflation.
The Federal Reserve: A Sovereign Parasite?
- The Fed is not a government agency.
- It is owned by its member banks, not by the people.
- Its flagship, the New York Fed, holds the U.S. government’s bank account.
- Despite trillions missing in unaudited spending, the Fed continues to transact without accountability.
“If you or I refused to produce audited financials, our banks would shut us down. But the Fed lets the U.S. government continue—no questions asked.”
The Role of Central Banks in Global Governance
Fitts explains:
- The Bank for International Settlements (BIS) is the “central bank of central banks” and holds sovereign immunity.
- These central banks coordinate monetary policy globally, not democratically.
- With the rise of programmable digital currencies, they aim to control not just money, but people.
Slavery by Design: Financial Enslavement of the Masses
Through debt-based money:
- Nations are locked into endless interest payments.
- Citizens are taxed not to fund government, but to service debt.
- Usury has become embedded in everything:
- Student loans
- Mortgages
- Credit cards
- Even healthcare and education systems are debt-backed
“$36 trillion in debt not because we had to—but because we allowed bankers to run the system.”
Weaponized Usury: Power through Pain
- The government issues debt to fund budgets.
- Banks issue credit cards and student loans.
- Wall Street manipulates interest rates and markets.
- Citizens are economically dependent and morally pacified.
This system is maintained not by truth—but by propaganda and fear of collapse.
“Most Americans will not push the red button to stop narcotics trafficking or debt fraud because they fear losing their pensions.”
Historic Warning: The Fate of Leaders Who Challenged Usury
Fitts notes:
- Lincoln: issued greenbacks — assassinated
- Andrew Jackson: tried to cancel the central bank — assassination attempt
- JFK: moved toward debt-free currency — assassinated
Conclusion:
“The last presidents who tried to challenge the debt-based money system didn’t live to finish the job.”
The Only Way Out: Honest Money and Distributed Power
Catherine Fitts’ solution includes:
- Ending debt-based issuance of currency
- Decentralizing monetary control
- Eliminating usury from banking and student loan systems
- Issuing local and state-backed currencies for real goods and services
She asserts:
“We can’t have liberty under a fraudulent monetary system. Fix the money—or lose the country.”
12. Alternative Investing & Freedom Solutions
From the Interview with Catherine Austin Fitts and Jimmy Dore
Core Message: Take Back Control by How You Spend, Save, and Invest
Catherine Austin Fitts emphasizes that we don’t need to wait for Washington or Wall Street to reform.
“Control and freedom happen one person at a time.”
She urges individuals to use their money, time, and talent as strategic levers to reclaim sovereignty and build a parallel, ethical economy.
Shift from Wall Street to Local and Moral Enterprise
Reject passive investing in corrupt institutions:
- Most Americans are funding the very systems enslaving them:
- BlackRock, Raytheon, Pfizer, Google, etc.
- 401(k)s, IRAs, and pensions are deeply tied to war profiteering, pharma tyranny, and financial fraud.
Alternative investment strategy:
- Invest in small businesses, local farms, ethical manufacturing, healthcare innovators, and honest service providers.
- Fitts calls this the “Solari Investment Screens”:
- Only invest in companies that build real value without harming society.
Precious Metals and Tangible Assets
Fitts:
“I like precious metals. I invest in gold. Gold has outperformed the stock market.”
Why gold and silver?
- Stores value outside of digital systems
- Immune to inflation, hacking, and control grid shutdowns
- Preserves purchasing power during crisis or collapse
Relational Capital: Invest in People, Not Just Products
Fitts:
“My favorite investment is people.”
This includes:
- Funding a young person’s apprenticeship or business
- Donating to local causes building real skills and resilience
- Mentoring others in financial literacy, food growing, trades, etc.
She believes the future currency will be “relationships of trust.”
Reengineering Your Life: Food, Water, and Health First
You must exit the poisoned systems:
- Grow your own food or support local farms
- Purify your water and eliminate toxic consumer products
- Find doctors who reject mRNA tech and medical tyranny
- Build a home-based and local wellness economy
“Reengineer your food, your water, and your preventative health so that you walk away from these healthcare systems.”
Build Parallel Systems of Exchange
Reject digital-only payment systems.
- Use cash to resist surveillance
- Use checks and barter
- Create or support local currencies or time banking
Her motto:
“Keep cash alive. Keep analog systems functioning.”
The Power of Shunning: Strategic Economic Sanctions
Fitts encourages peaceful, legal “shunning”:
- Pull your money out of megabanks like JPMorgan Chase and Bank of America
- Cut ties with companies profiting from censorship, war, or corruption
- Call universities and churches out on unethical investments
“If everyone called their broker tomorrow and said, ‘Get out of companies poisoning kids,’ there would be a revolution.”
Political Power Through Economic Independence
Fitts insists we can’t change the federal government from the top down:
- Build from the bottom up: counties, towns, families
- Regain transactional freedom by refusing digital ID and CBDCs
- Work with local legislators to resist federal overreach
Her Practical Resources for Action
Fitts provides:
- The Solari Report: Weekly intelligence for financial freedom
- The Financial Transaction Freedom 2025 Guide:
A toolkit for resisting the digital control grid at the state level - Checklists for State Action: Local legislation to secure analog rights, ban biometric tracking, and safeguard cash access
Final Insight: Live Into the New, Don’t Just Fight the Old
“In the destruction of the old, let there be the creation of the new.”
Catherine Austin Fitts encourages building parallel institutions, local economies, and moral financial practices—not just protesting the old ones.
In the interview between Jimmy Dore and Catherine Austin Fitts, they explore Donald Trump’s relationship with Israel in critical detail, highlighting both symbolic gestures and structural realities. Here’s what they reveal:
Trump Cut Direct Contact with Netanyahu
A report is referenced stating that Trump cut off direct contact with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu due to:
- Concerns that Netanyahu was manipulating him
- Frustration over Israeli strategic arrogance
- Lack of concrete proposals from Israel regarding Iran, Gaza, and regional stability
Dore’s interpretation:
Trump hates being played, and Netanyahu’s perceived gamesmanship (especially through backchannel operatives like Waltz using secret Israeli apps) crossed the line.
Fitts’ Caution: This May Be Political Theater
Catherine Austin Fitts immediately responds with skepticism:
“If Trump is still funding Israel, then this is just drama.”
She emphasizes:
- Netanyahu doesn’t care about phone calls, he cares about money and weapons
- Until U.S. military aid and financial support stops, this is not a real break
Deep Systemic Constraints on Trump
Fitts explains that Trump is boxed in by:
- Donors: Like the Adelson family, major contributors with Israel-first loyalties
- Private interests: Central bankers, globalists, and military contractors
- Dependency on Israeli intelligence infrastructure: Especially in the Middle East and digital surveillance networks
“The Israeli networks are deeply tied to the enforcement of the dollar system.”
Fear and Coercion Behind the Scenes
Fitts reveals that dissenting too loudly or cutting ties with Israel is dangerous, implying:
- Those who resist the system are threatened or silenced
- She personally received veiled threats about publishing her book that exposed laundering and corruption networks connected to Israeli and U.S. financial systems
“I interpreted the message as: If you publish this in hard copy, we’ll kill someone in your family.”
Support for Genocide in Gaza = Subservience
Fitts draws a hard line:
“If the U.S. is still funding genocide in Gaza, Trump is not breaking from Israel in any real way.”
She demands three real signs of independence:
- AIPAC registered as a foreign lobby
- Disclosure of all dual citizenships in government
- A halt to funding Israeli military actions in Gaza
Is Trump “Freeing” America or Just Rebranding Control?
Fitts warns that Trump’s moves may appear populist while still advancing:
- The Zionist agenda
- Control grid infrastructure
- Transfer of money from foreign aid to Pentagon/DOD, which Elon Musk and others benefit from
Conclusion: Actions Over Appearances
Jimmy Dore and Catherine Austin Fitts agree that Trump’s rhetoric may be anti-Establishment, but unless:
- Funding stops
- Structural changes occur
- Israeli influence is openly confronted
…then it’s likely just political theater to pacify populist discontent.
Catherine Austin Fitts often describes the current global governance model as a “prison system from above.” In her interviews—particularly with Jimmy Dore—she outlines this as a technocratic, financial, and surveillance-based control grid imposed on the population by supranational entities in collaboration with corrupted institutions.
Here’s how she frames that idea:
The Control Grid
- Technological surveillance, including digital IDs, central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), smart cities, and biometric tracking, is being built as a virtual prison.
- The infrastructure is not for convenience, she argues—it’s designed to monitor, restrict, and ultimately control human behavior.
Financial Enslavement
- She emphasizes the “Black Budget economy”—the trillions of unaccounted dollars siphoned from public funds.
- Through inflation, taxation, debt servitude, and the manipulation of monetary policy, the average person is trapped in a cycle of work-consume-pay, never building true freedom or resilience.
Political Theater
- The illusion of democracy persists, but Fitts suggests sovereignty has been sold to corporate cartels and global technocratic bodies.
- National governments act as managers of the prison—puppets maintaining order, not stewards of liberty.
Voluntary Compliance
- She stresses the importance of individual complicity: the prison cannot function without consent. Surveillance devices, digital payments, and dependence on state systems are all voluntarily adopted by the population.
- The real bars of the prison are psychological—fear, apathy, conformity, and ignorance.
The Escape Plan
- Fitts calls for what she terms the “Global Reset Rebellion”:
- Decentralized, sovereign living (local food systems, barter, private currencies).
- Disengagement from corrupt tech, media, and banking structures.
- Investing in real skills, local relationships, and spiritual grounding.
