Navigating the Banking Collapse

to date. And that's what we're going to cover. I have some of the latest breaking news headlines, and it is it's like feast and famine. Man. I remember a couple of years ago, there was like nothing to talk about it. Now there's just a NonStop flow of just change happening, and it's just important to keep up with. And if you want to understand how the world is changing more more specically, what do we want to know

that information for? Well, hopefully we use that information knowledge's power to actually make some changes in our life, to protect ourselves and benefit as this all happens. You know, one of the things I've been talking about the last couple of weeks is this banking collapse and it's a big deal. It's a real big deal for any number of reasons. The banking collapse is, as I'm saying, it's probably just getting started. We haven't even yet to begun

to see all the damages from the banking collapse. You know, I've talked about this extensively. You can go back and just search my past episodes the Markmas Show or on YouTube under the Market Disruptors channel to see what I've been talking about. But you know, I've covered it. We had Silvergate Bank go down, we had a Silicon Valley bank that's the big one that everyone's been talking about, went down. And of course then we had then it went to Signature Bank. Now we're seeing, like you know,

all these all these different bank crisis. But one thing that I thought was interesting and it fits in with my thesis which we always talk about, which is of course looking at the world decentralizing through the lens of politics, finance, and technology. But we talked about how it was technology, of course that always changes the world the most, and these banks, they're old institutions and they haven't really caught

up with the change in technology. And so one of those is that today you know, I could post something on Twitter or Instagram or Facebook or whatever, and it can go to millions of people, and then those same people could pull out their phone, open their app for the banking app, and click a button and move all their money out of the bank, which is what happened. Forty billion dollars was taken out of the bank in

one single day. You can't do that by going and waiting in line and pull in a couple of thousand bucks. It was done through pushing a button on app. But what was interesting is that they started to blame social media for the banking collapse. Supposedly it was it was social media's fault. The problem is is that people started talking about the banking collapse happening, and so then everyone

panicked and pulled their money out, which is partially true. Yes, people panicked and pulled their money out, but to blame it on social media is absurd. I mean to think about that if the banks had the money, it wouldn't have mattered. The fact is that the banks didn't have the money, and of course everybody's waking up to that. So I thought it was insane. What scared me is that, you know, as I say, all the time, and as we're starting to see in real time where we're going.

I did an interview with doctor Robert Malone, an amazing interview. Go back and check it out search the Mark Mass Show. In Search of Robert Malone. We talked about the fifth generation of warfare and how we've gone now into this age of psychological warfare, a war of information. And so in a war of information, in order to win the war of information, you either have to have truth on your side, because truth will be found out through open

and honest dialogue. But if you don't have truth on your side, then the only way you can win the war is by controlling the flow of information. And so that's of course what they're going to resort to is control and information. And so when they start talking about, well, it's social media's fault that caused the banking crisis, then they start to go well public, for your safety, you don't want your bank to collapse, you don't want all

your savings to collapse. So for your safety, we have to be able to control the flow of information because you don't want some random guy to post about a bank collapse and then you lose all your money. So in order to protect you where you're good. Of course, for your safety, we have to control the flow of information. Everything's for your safety. Now. I could see them already starting to angle for that. However, there was this a recent report that came out that said, nope, that's not it.

It's not social media. So they said social media had nothing to do with svb's implosion. A bunch of factors were looked at, including the fact that they had you know, a lot of this money had already been moving out long before the bank had collapsed, so they could see that no, no, no, this this actually started before, which to me he seems like a complete waste of time and stupid because, like I said, if the banks had the money, it would have never been a problem in

the first place. But you know, that's where we're at. It's it's also it's also interesting to see I put out a tweet this morning. If you're not following me

on Twitter, you should just at one Mark Moss. But actually I replied to a tweet by Preston Pish, and he was saying, how the problem right now is that as all these banks are going down, it's use these small banks are starting to go down but the problem is that these small banks were really the ones that were providing the money for the energy sector, which is a big problem. I'm going to try and pull this

up exactly. The banking crisis following the Silicon Valley bank that I was just talking about has now put us l G, that's natural gas projects at risk. And the reason why is because the as the equity wanes, all these banks going down, this banking crisis is blocking the funding. Now, what's interesting about this is that the FED is trying to fight inflation. They're trying to fight prices going up. So in order to combat the rising prices, what do

they do? They raised interest rates. But when they raised interest rates, it made the banks go bankrupt, which is why Silicon Valley and Signature Bank, etc. Their bond yields. As the interest rates went up, their bond yields went down. So then the banks, all this money they had parked in treasuries lost value. So when customers want their money, they didn't have it. So the FED, trying to fight inflation, raised rates. When they raised rates, they made the banks

go bust. When the banks went bust, the FED had to print a bunch of money to fill the whole, which is inflationary. So to fight inflation, they caused inflation. And then as the banks went under, they're causing a shortage of energy. When there's a shortage of energy supply and demand, the price goes up. When the price of energy goes up, the price of everything goes up, which is inflationary. Do you see the irony here. They're trying to fight inflation by raising rates, but all they did

was cause more inflation. It's sort of like you can't push a single button or a single lever in a complex system. Our human body, our world, our globe, our environment, our markets are what's called complex system. There's millions or billions or trillions of interconnected levers that all work off of each other. You can't just push on one without expecting tens or hundreds or thousands of other things happening,

unintended consequences, as we call it. It's exactly why this whole climate change narrative is so idiotic and insane, as if you could control the entire world's environment with carbon apparently, now let's not even get into what carbon is good for, or I don't even want to get into the debate, but the insanity that you could control the most complex system in the entire world. I mean, it is the world, one that we know almost nothing about. And we can

control the thermostat by controlling carbon. I mean, it's insane. I don't want to get into that confort, but this is basically, this is what the FED does. They can control the entire globe, the entire globe's economy and markets and investment cycles and business cycles with one lever interest rates. I mean, the insanity. So here we are to fight inflation. They've caused inflation, They've caused a banking collapse. Now they're causing an energy shortage. And my, what a world that

we live in. I got more headlines to cover When I come back. I'm gonna take a very quick break and I'm gonna come back with a whole lot more. You don't want to miss it. It don't go away. I'll be right back, all right, Welcome back. If you're just tune in, you're listening to the Mark Moss Show. We're talking about, of course, each and every week, the

decentralized Revolution. Like we always do, We're running through some of the latest breaking news headlines this week, and of course you know, as I say, we look at through the lens of politics, finance, and technology, and it's always technology that changes the world. And the technology that's changing the world more than anything right now has been Bitcoin and the decentralized ledger. Yes, AI is also really important and it will, it's just in its mfacy right now.

I believe these open communication networks like nosters also, but really Bitcoin has been this driving force and it's been amazing to watch. And really it's really a battleground. It's really a battleground, which is insane to me, the battleground that's forming. You know, I saw this morning. I tweeted about it. The insanity of this is Elizabeth Warren. Elizabeth Warren put out she's all over the internet and on Twitter saying, quote here, Elizabeth Warren is building an anti

crypto army. Warren for Senate. So she's running for Senate saying that she is going to build an anti crypto army. She is running on a campaign to say she wants to shut down cryptocurrency. Now, what is cryptocurrency. Cryptocurrency is a decentralized ledger. You've probably heard it called that blockchain. What is blockchain? Blockchain is a decentralized database. So instead of having one database, you have multiple databases that achieve consensus.

It's like having a Google sheet that all of us can report onto on the Google sheet. So imagine running on a campaign saying that you want to ban Google sheets. Yeah, it's that stupid. Like literally, it's a decentralized database that achieves consensus, and she's running her whole campaign on stopping that. Imagine running on a campaign in the nineties on I'm gonna shut down the Internet. I mean, it's just insanity.

Especially as I tweeted out this, I said, basically, we have a high ranking leader of the United States, the quote Land of the Free, supposedly running on a campaign to take away your freedom and private property rights. Hmm, that's what she's running on. That's her campaign. Pretty insane. That's the problem with having these old people running politics. I'm sorry if you're old, but if you're somewhat realistic with yourself, you know that your kids probably technology better

than you do. It's just the way it goes. Kids were born with it, you know, Like I've seen little kids. Remember even when my kids were little, they'd walk up to any TV or screen and just start thinking they could touch it and swipe on it. That's just what they know. And so old people just don't jump on they don't get technology as fast. It's just just I'm sorry if that offends you, just the way it is. So when we have all these eighty year olds in office,

how oldes Elizabeth Warren Dan Google that for me. I don't know how she is, but I know Nancy Pelosi, I know Joe Biden. You know all these old seventy three okay, she's seventy three. Are these the ones that should be campaigning to shut down technology when we know it's technology that changes the world. We need to shut down a decentralized ledger? How dare you set up databases that can communicate with each other? I mean, how dare you?

And that's not all we have probably one of the worst things that I've ever seen, called the restrict Act. They're calling it the TikTok Act. They want to shut down TikTok. Now I'm not a fan of TikTok. By the way, I do have a TikTok account. So if you're on TikTok, check it out. Mark Moss on TikTok. But I'm just gonna be honest with you. I don't use it. My team takes my content and chops it up and sticks it on there for me so we can reach that audience. I don't personally use it. My

kids use it. I don't like them using it, but that's a whole nother story. I think TikTok is bad for any number of reasons. Specifically, most importantly, I think it destroys your focus. But so does Twitter, and so does Instagram. So from that standpoint, it's like eating junk food. It's not good for you, but we do it anyway. But supposedly TikTok is bad because it steals your data and gives it to the Chinese Communist Party, supposedly, and so now they want to create this restrict Act to

fight back against TikTok. Supposedly they're gonna shut down TikTok. However, I dug into this and it is not what it seems. As a matter of fact, this is the most dangerous piece of legislation I have ever seen put forth through the United States. And that is not hyperbole. It is a trojan horse that will take away more freedoms with one swell fell swoop than anything I've ever seen before. I called it the Patriarch on Steroids, and I did a whole video on my YouTube channel breaking this down,

what it says, why it's bad. If you want to check it out, go to my YouTube channel just search Mark Moss and watch that. But basically they're saying, like I said, that China is still in our data. Well, first of all, all the apps track our data, and all of that data is for sell to anybody, including China. Your data is already being collected by any of the number of thousands of apps you probably have on your phone right now, and it's already being sold to everybody.

All your movement data, all that. I don't know if you guys saw what was that forget what It's called the something Mules, and it was about the election interference that happened, and they showed they got the data. They bought it. They bought the data for these different people's cell phones and they could see them moving around. All of that information is available already. Now. I don't like it. I'm not saying that's a good thing, but it's already

for cell to anybody, including China. So to blame this as like China could get your data. They already have your data. It's a ridiculous. It's a ridiculous jojan horse

that they're trying to call. But basically what they're trying to do like it is they want to make it where the government has one hundred percent power, and not just the government as in like the government we vote in, unelected leaders inside the government will have full authority and immunity to do whatever they want to you with no due process. They could say you violated this. There's no due process, which means that you would go to court and have a fair trial. You get none of that.

You're automatically found guilty, you get imprisoned for twenty years, you're find a million dollars, and all of your property is taken away. All of it. Sounds like something you might here in like North Korea. So somebody that's not elected, just unilaterally could decide that you're a bad actor, could seize all your property, put you in prison for twenty years, find you a million dollars, and no due process. That's not America. Come on, that's not America. This is the

most ridiculous bill that I've ever heard of. I don't want to say it's ridiculous, it's the most dangerous. And the reason why it's dangerous is because they reason why they want this is exactly what you think they want it for, to shut you up. As I've kind of said, if we're in a war of information, then the way that you win the war is by controlling the flow of information. As I've been talking about. Last week, I did a whole episode on these open monetary and open

communication protocols. These are outside the hands of the government. They cannot be stopped. So since they can't shut them down, since they can't control them, since there's no longer you know, obviously with the Twitter files, we saw how the FBI and the Biden administration directly was telling Twitter what to censor. Well, as we moved to these decentralized protocol calls, they can't do that. There's no CEO to squeeze, there's no way

to control it. So they pass a bill like this, which says, great, we can't control so here's what we're gonna do. If we catch you using it, We're gonna put you in prison for twenty years. We're gonna find you a million dollars and take away all your property. That's what we'll do since we can't control it. If we just catch you, we'll just kill you. How about that? How you like that? Well, I don't like it, which is why I don't live in North Korea. I don't like it, which is why I live in the United

States of America. I mean, this can't stand. If you want full breakdown of this, go, like I said, go to my YouTube channel, Mark Moss and watch that video I just put up on that and you can understand there's some serious calls to action. It's time to stop being the silent majority. It's time to start being a noisy majority. And unfortunately, yes, you have to deal with the politics. Yes, you need to call your leaders, your politicians, your senators, your congressman, and you need to tell them

that you vehemently oppose this. Not in the America that you live in, not the America that my father and my grandfather fought and shed blood and tears for. All Right, if you're just tuning and listen to the Mark mos show runs through some of the biggest news headlines of the week. I got a whole bunch more to cover when I come back. I gotta take a quick break and come back. Don't go away. We're back, all right,

Welcome back. If you're just tune in, you're listening to the Mark Moas Show, talking about, of course, each and every week, the decentralized Revolution. Now breaking down some of the latest breaking news headlines this week that continue to help us prove that this thesis is coming true. Now. I made a lot of noise, potentially a lot of people that didn't like me when I started talking about after the FTX collapse happened, did a bunch of videos on that, and I made a case that there would

not be another crypto bull run because of the regulations. Well, I said that there won't be another crypto bull run. I wasn't talking about bitcoin. Bitcoin is going to go parabolic. I'm talking about crypto and I said there won't be another crypto bull run. Of course, all these crypto advocates did not like that. They all want to challenge me. They wanted me to come on for debates on Twitter, which I did. I went on a bunch of shows.

I talked about it a bunch And the reason why I said that was going to happen is because I said that the the SEC, whatever you want to call it, the CFTC, the government, the regulators, we're going to come out so hard and so heavy handed that they were going to try to shut this crypto industry down. And I said that was going to happen. People said, Mark, you don't understand. Even if that does happen, it's going to go overseas. The US is just going to force

it overseas. The US will lose its place as a technology leader. I said, yes, it could go to overseas, but the US will still have jurisdiction even overseas. And if they go to some small little jurisdiction where the US doesn't, then no money can flow there. Okay, So that was my That was my crystal ball reading if you will. It turns out my crystal ball works pretty dang good. Yes, I have called lots of things. Two and a half years ago, I made a video saying

warning an energy crisis coming the world. I talked about when the FED was saying inflation wasn't a problem. I talked about how inflation was going to be a big problem. I kind of called the bitcoin bottom on that. We'll see if that holds. And yes, I'm right about this again and we see it. So let's see, it's just going to go overseas, right, Well, you might be aware. If you're not, then you are. Now that Binance, which is the largest cryptocurrency exchange in the world, was bigger

than FTX and it is not a US company. They do have Binance International, and then they have Binance US, which is a US division. Now Binance is under suit from the CFTC Communities Futures Exchange, but also potentially even from the Department of Justice. Now the reports are that Binance hit extensive links to China. Remember when Russia was the bad guy, Russia, Russia, Russia? Will they still now it's China, China, China again. So supposedly Binance hit extensive

links to China for years. How dare they? Well, they were a foreign country, they're a foreign company. They're not an American company. It doesn't matter. The long arm of the United States government doesn't doesn't care about borders. They're coming after that, and they're saying that the Binance CEO Zoo sued they called him cz had willful evasion of US laws. He sold unregistered crypto derivative projects and so they're coming after him, not just trying to sue him

into oblivion for violating commodities rules and laws. But like I said, even with criminal penalties, now there's some interesting pieces in here to talk about. I think coin base is chief legal officers said that there's a lot to unpack in this case. And some of this is like the SEC is the Securities Exchange Commission. Our cryptocurrency is considered securities. Well, apparently the CFTC, which handles commodities, thinks they're not securities, thinks they're commodities. So now we have

the s CFTC, which pursues commodity infringements or whatever. The CFTC is making a case that these are commodities and we're going to come and to regulate you for that or we're going to punish you for that. But the SECS are here going wait a minute, wait a minute, but these are securities, and so we're gonna witness this playoffs should be pretty interesting. The sec and the CFTC are now go to government regulation. Regulatory body is going to try to fight each other for who has jurisdiction

over this. But beyond that side show the important thing to think about here, is that to the point I made, and I'm correct, the US government, the regulators are going to come for Crypto and shut it down, and they're certainly trying to do that to everybody's argument to that, Oh, but they're just going to go overseas. Well, that's certainly

not helping finance. Going overseas hasn't helped them one. As a matter of fact, it looks like it's actually penalizing them in the fact that, like I said, they're saying that now Binance has hit extensive links to China, so having the fact that they have ties into another country is actually working against them and not helping them. Interesting turn of events now I've been talking about. I made a video on my main YouTube channel, Mark Moss, talking

about this choke point. Two point zero choke point. The original choke point was under the Obama administration, they weaponized the banking system. They weaponized the IRS against the oppositional political party at the time. It was against what they

considered Tea Party which was conservative movements, lowest learners. The IRS was forced to step down in disgrace and admit that they had unfairly targeted political opposition, and they shut off access to banking to legal businesses, legally recognized businesses in the US, but they didn't matter. They still shut them down, and that was choke point. Now we have kind of this checkpoint two point zero choke point two. I know where it looks like they're starting to choke

off access to cryptocurrencies. That's part of these banks that have been taken down. I talked about Silvergate Bank, then it was Silicon Valley Bank SPB, then it was a Signature bank, And what all three of those have in common is that they were all crypto friendly banks. So it looks like there's there's choke point two point er. They're trying to take down exchanges like Binance, they're trying to take down the banks that control them. They're coming

after crypto yellot from the mountain top. But remember what I said, Crypto as a category may not see another will not see another bull run, but bitcoin will. So when I'm talking about choke point two point zero, when we're talking about Binance, we're talking about the banks being taken down. These are banks that we're dealing with crypto. This is Binance that's dealing with crypto. This is not

affecting bitcoin. Bitcoin is not under attack. Companies that deal with only bitcoin, like swan Bitcoin that I use if you want to buy bitcoin, check them out. Swan Bitcoin, I think slash Mark and you can get ten dollars free your bitcoin if you use that unchained capital who I use for like my bitcoin security. These companies are not under attack. Even Gemini sent out an email saying, hey, we're not involved in any of these banks that are being taken down. Here's the list of banks that we use,

and it's all top to your banks. It's not bitcoin that's under attack. It looks like it's crypto that's under attack, and crypto's under attack because they're trying to stop a lot of very very fraudent activity it's happening in there. I know a lot of people don't like me to say that. Like I said, I took a lot of heat for coming out and saying that. The unfortunate truth is, if you would just take off your blinders, the reality is that most of crypto is fraud and scam. Just

the reality. It's unfortunate, and it's tainted this whole industry. It's even tainted bitcoin. But that's why people like myself are pretty pretty are pretty vocal about saying bitcoin not crypto, and we don't. We're not saying that bitcoin is not a cryptocurrency, which it is. But when we talk about bitcoin, bitcoin is different than all the other cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin is a commodity. There's no company, there's no head, there's no

marketing department, there's no one there to do fraud. It's the piece of coat, it's the piece of protocol. If you want to run the protocol and you're on your computer, you can. If you don't, you don't. No big deal.

It's not like any of these other tokens like Ethereum that constantly manipulates the supply, not only in how many they produced, their inflation numbers that have been changed I think three times in the last couple of years, but the amount of circulation by forcing people to lock them up and not giving them the coins back and all those things. But there's and that's not even the gross

offender here. Lots of you hear about the rug bolls happening all the time, so there's a lot of fraud that happens there, and that looks like that to me. That's what the regulators are going for they're trying to shut down the fraud in crypto, and they don't seem to have a problem letting bitcoin run. As a matter of fact, the head of the SEC, Gary Gensler, has said many times bitcoin is a commodity, probably nothing else. The previous head of the SEC, J Clayton said the

same thing. And so we'll continue to watch this, I'll continue to report on, I'll continue to develop it. Just know that if you have a lot of crypto, specifically on binance, you might want to think about what you're gonna do with that. Remember, not your keys, not your coins. Always pull your assets off the exchange. They are not banks. That is not yours, it's thoors. They owe it to you,

but you may not get it back. If you're just tuning in listening to the Mark Mos Show, I'm gonna take a very quick break and I'll be back with more headlines in a second. Don't go away, I'll be right back, all right, Welcome back. If you're just tune in, you're listening to the Mark Mass Show. We're talking about the Decentralized Revolution, and we're running through the play by play the weekly headlines that show that this thesis is in full effect and it's happening faster than ever. You know.

I talked about how we are in a war of information, and again, man, I can't I can't recommend him enough. Go back and watch the interview I did with doctor Robert Malone. Just go search on your podcast player. Just search the Markmas Show and you'll find the podcast with doctor Robert Malone. We talked about the fifth generation of warfare. Basically, we talked about how warfare has changed throughout the ages. The first stage was man on man, second stage was

like organizing armies. The third stage was then like industrialized armies. This was aircraft carriers, ships, tanks, etc. Fourth generation of warfare really probably started in Vietnam, and it started with like guerrilla warfare, so little guerrilla wars would come out in attack and they had retreat and they'd kind of come from everywhere. It's hard to find. That then led

into like terrorism as we know it. Terrorism is like a bunch of independent sales like the Taliban or ISIS or whatever, and it's He points out that since we've entered the fourth generation of warfare, like I said, since Vietnam, the United States has never won a war pretty interesting. You've seen Biden talking about, oh, you guys with your guns, how you're going to defend against an F sixteen. Well, it worked out pretty good for Afghanistan. They ran America

out of their country, tell tuck between their legs. We had to abandon I think hundreds of Americans and eight billion, eight billion dollars of weapons we had to leave for them because we couldn't get it out, and they had pickup trucks and machine guns. So worked out pretty well for them. We haven't been able to beat that. And the reason why it's because you have all these decentralized cells that aren't being controlled by one leader. There's no head to cut off, the head of a snake. All

these cells work independently with a shared ideology. But anyway, now, the fifth generation of warfare is one of information. It's a psychological warfare. And he talks about how in that fifth generation of warfare, you are in this war. You're under attack from everywhere all the time, but you don't know where the attacks coming from, you don't know why it's coming. And it's really it's a war of information. It's a propaganda, it's manipulation. But it's all fought over information,

and so that's the battleground. That's why free speech is under attack. That's why you're constantly being pounded with misinformation and malinformation and disinformation. You're being constantly warned that that you're under attack from that, and that you need someone to protect you from that, and so of course the government should be the one to protect you from all

that misinformation and malinformation. Of course, we continue to find out over and over and over and over that it's actually the government that's the one spreading the misinformation, malinformation, disinformation. We see it all the time, over and over and over. It's always the government that does it. But of course they're telling us that we can do it now. I talked about a little while ago talking about this restrict

Act that's being put forth. As I said, it's probably the most dangerous, the most scary piece of legislation I've ever seen come out of the government. And that's saying a lot. The Patriot Act was probably the biggest one that we've ever seen that lost in most amount of freedom. This is the Patriarch time a thousand and they're they're using it in the guise of TikTok. All right, like I said've already kind of covered it. I'm not gonna

go super deep into it. If you want to get a full detail of what's going on with that, check out my main YouTube channel, Mark Moss and check that out. But I want to just I want to kind of move on past that and show you that while that is the biggest and the most scary piece of legislation we have, it's part of a bigger initiative. It's part of the bigger war and again, this fifth generation of warfare,

it's being waged on you. It's we the people versus these technocratic leaders that want to control us in some sort of you know, dystopian nightmare, technologically driven dystopian nightmare, what I call the battle for the fate of humanity. That's what's being waged. And so this is happening, and we see it, and it's and it's happening from every single angle one. They want to control the information anyway they can. Now one is by using something like this

TikTok band. They call it that. The restrict Act, which is basically makes it where if you use any tools that they don't deem approved, you can go to prison, you know, for the rest of your life and lose everything basically. But we see that as being attacked from

other angles as well. So you might remember I've talked about extensively here how Elon Musk released all the records, all the data, the emails, the text messages, et cetera, between the federal government, the Biden administration, and Twitter, and how the Biden administration, I believe maybe the FBI as well, we're basically coercing forcing Twitter to silence and take down accounts and tweets they didn't like to push the narrative up that they wanted to decrease the visibility of narratives

they didn't want. And it's all. I suppose it's called the Twitter foles. Just go google it. Of course, news channels were media blackout. They don't want you to know this. Fox is probably the only one that talked about it other than smaller channels like myself. When I say smaller like myself, I think Joe Rogan's talked about this quite a bit, and he's way bigger than any of these channels.

But what's interesting about it is Elon Musk gave these files to a couple of reporters that he knew would actually talk about it, that would actually push it out. Barry Weiss is one of them. Matt Taiebee was one of them. And of course the government didn't like that. They didn't like being exposed, and so they drummed, They dragged Matt Taiebee up, Michael Schallenberger up before a committee. You have to come to the government. You need to answer for this. How dare you expose our secrets? You

better come answer for that. You need to tell us who gave you the information all these things. And of course reporters don't give up their sources. That's not that's not happens. And so as they're getting grilled there, as they're being you know, basically read the Riot Act for this. Interesting enough, while that was happening, just you know, coincidentally, coincidentally, the IRS decides to make a strange house call to Matt Taiebee. M Now, you know, the IRS doesn't just

mysteriously just show up at people's houses. And I referenced earlier in a in an earlier segment about how choke point two point choke choke point one point the original one was the weaponization of the IRS against political enemies, but at that time it was against conservable It's always against conservative enemies. At the time, it was against the

Tea Party specifically. And here we have the IRS specifically targeting out a journalist because it appears that he provoked the ire of Democrats by releasing information on the Twitter records that they didn't want, says. This effort has already inspired government bowling, with chair Lena Kahn's Federal Trade Commission targeting new Twitter owner Elon Musk and demanding the company quote idea entify all journalists. So the FTC is coming

after Elon Musk and Twitter. How dare you give this information? We need to see all the journalists like, No, that's protected under our government. The reason why that's protected is because we, you and I are private citizens. Private citizens that means our lives are to be private. The government are public servants. That means they are representing the public. They are our servants for the public. Everything they do should be known and public. We as private citizens, should not.

And so the reason why we have these laws and rules that protect journalists is so they can constantly tell us what's happening in the public sphere. So they can expose this, so we as private citizens can know this. But of course they don't want that through the Restrict Act. They want everything they do to be private. As a matter of fact, in the Restrict Act, what they can do unilaterally with no due process is protected. It can't even be exposed in a Freedom of Information Act in

a four our request. But here they're demanding that they identify all this, and of course the battle raged on. It was pretty pretty good conversation with Matt Tiebe there. But then, yeah, like I said, now IRS just happens to show up at his house. What do you think the IRS one to hire eighty six thousand more agents for Do you think it was so they can answer the phone when you call, so you don't have to

wait on line for three or four hours. No, it was so they could build their own private army so they can go out and harass people like Matt Taiebee, potentially people like me, and probably at one point even people like you. Because in a war of information, if you can't control the information and you don't have truth on your side, then you're gonna lose. So the only thing they have is they have a monopoly on violence

and they ain't afraid to use it. If you just tune in and listening to the Mark Mass Show talking about the decentralized revolution, this world's breaking apart and we're giving you the play by play. Hopefully enjoyed that. Hit me up on social media at one Mark Moss let me know if you listen to it, and that's what I got. Thanks so much for listening to Day
