The Money in Your Bank is at Risk

of the biggest headlines of the week. Now. If you're watching this instead of just listening, you can listen on the radio. Of course, you can catch it on the podcast your favorite podcast player just search Mark Moss Show. You can also watch this on the Market Disruptors YouTube channel. Uh. You might notice I'm wearing this sweatshirt with the skull and crossbones and it's from a soccer team, a football

team out of London, um, the real Bedford. My friend Peter McCormick bought the team and he's trying to trying to make a run in the in the football league over there, So anyway supporting him. If you're wondering what the sweatshirt is, shout out to Peter and the real

Bedford over there. Good luck to you. But anyway, back to some of the biggest breaking news, and of course, you know in this cryptocurrency space, you know, bitcoin space, financial space, whatever you want to call it, some of the biggest news going around the world, and and all of finance, mainstream, etcetera. Is of course, you know, the

collapse of cryptocurrency and bitcoin. It started with you know, Celsius or really Terra Luna and Celsius and theos Capital all the way now of course to sam bankmin Freed and f t X and that saga. Man. Just like when it seems like it couldn't go any deeper, it just continues to get deeper. But you know, I've been keeping you up on a couple of these things because it's imortant. Understand if you're affected by this, and even if you're not infected, affected and not infected affected, there's

still a lesson to learn. Now. I just did video on my YouTube channel, Mark Moss YouTube channel talking about the money in your bank is at risk, it's not protected like you think it is, and um, what's happening in the cryptocurrency space. He helps us to understand it. What's happening in the cryptocurrency space. What happened with f t X and Celsius is a small little microcosm that's easy for us to kind of get our head around understand, and it helps us to understand what's going on in

the bigger world. Uh. In a video I did talking about the ft X and how they use this fake token f t T and kind of create this fake value. And I explain now that you understand that it's very easy to understand that way. Now they understand that it's exactly how Japan is with their Japanese yen token, and it's even what's gonna happen in the United States and the FED with the dollar token. And so when you understand that little level, it starts to help you understand

what's having on a bigger level. Am Uh. This video I made about the money in your bank not being safe, um, and even if you have fd C interns helps you understand if you can understand this first. So a couple of things I want to talk about in regards to that is the former Celsius CEO Mashinsky was sued by

New York State for de Friday and investors. The State of New York General Attorney General Tedia James accused him of misleading investors because he kept going on and on and on even up to the very end, about how safe it was, and however one should give him his money, and he was defrauding hundreds of thousands of investors by making these false statements encouraging to keep money coming in UM promising and financial freedom, and instead lead him to

financial ruin. Anyway, good luck with that. You don't get blood out of a turnip. And I don't know, they'll sue him and they'll win, but how much money they gonna get. But more importantly, what I want to talk about is UM a bankruptcy judge. So Celsius assets are in bankruptcy, and a bankruptcy judge just ruled this week that UM customers that had money into the earned products, so you could park your cryptocurrency there and earn yield

on it, or you could borrow against it. And the and and the users that had money there went to the bankruptcy court and file the petition and they said, hey, UM, that is our money, it's not their money, right, and so that should not be held up in this bankruptcy, they need to release that to us, and and the bankrupt judge said no, they said the platform customers do

not own their assets. The judge, Martin Glenn, said that celsius terms of condition in terms of service made it clear it took possession of crypto assets deposited into its earned product and that allows Celsius to retain control over the assets in its earn account and will have ramifications for other cryptocurrency investors using similar products across other platforms. And so if you had money on Voyage or Block

five or f t X, this matters to you. And it also matters if you have money in a bank, all right, because what happens is is what they're saying is it's the issue of ownership. It's the issue of ownership and its contract law. That's what happens is when you gave that to Celsius, that is no longer your money, or you gave it to block Fire, you gave it to whatever, it was no longer your money. So that's why the bankruptcy judge said, no, you don't get that

back now. If you had money sitting in a wallet there, it was not in an earn account or in a borrow account. If it was in a wallet, that's something different. Potentially they're saying that they're still going to give that back. Generally, wallet funds are treated as belonging to the users. But what does this have to do with block Fi and ft X and even Wells Fargo or JP Morgan. Well, technically, with your bank, when you give them that money, it's

not your money anymore. They owe it to you. And the reason why that's important is back to contract law. So in a bankruptcy event, in an insolvency event, if your bank goes bankrupt like Celsius or like f t X did, then the assets of the bank or coin based or Celsius or block fire, whatever go into receivership.

They go into bankruptcy. And in the bankruptcy and the receivership they try to figure out, okay, well, who's old one, and how much money do we have, and how do we divv you depp, and who gets the money first? And who gets the money last? And the unsecured creditors get money last, which is why I know bank will give you an unsecured loan right, And so when you give your money to the bank, it's not your money.

You don't own it anymore. They owe it to you, and you're an unsecured creditor, which means you will get your money last, which is exactly what happened here. They're saying, Hey, nope, you don't have the money. You gave it to the company. And so unfortunately, if you're in one of those accounts with Block five or f t X or whatever, you're probably in the same boat. If it's in a wallet, you might be better off. But like I said, even if it's in a traditional bank, you have that. Now, Mark,

what about f D? I see what about fd? I see? Well, if you'd like to find out my thoughts on that, go check out all my main YouTube channel. Just search Mark Moss and you'll find out what I have to say about f D. I see now onto f t X. Before Sam bankman Fried got arrested. Finally, Um, he's got a tough road head. And he went and declared not guilty, which is pretty amazing. It doesn't rule out the possibility that probably what he's doing is maybe trying to negotiate

a deal, some sort of a guilty plea deal. So he said not guilty and in the state will come back and maybe they could try to kind of make some deal. But the other people you know about, Caroline Ellison, who was the CEO of Alameda, the sister company, and f t X co founder Gary Wayne have already entered guilty please, and they have entered guilty pleas to cooperate against Sam Bankman Freeze. It doesn't look really good. I'm

not exactly sure what's going on. But more importantly, what I'm interested in is, of course all of this fraud that's going on specifically in the political realm. And what we know is that Sam bankman Fried kind of started f t X to give all this money to the Democratic Party and it became this massive contributor to the

Democratic Party. And um, what's interesting is that now they say that there's allegations of criminal violations of campaign finance laws, and they go beyond the basic fact that SPF you stolen customer funds to make these contributions. Damian Williams, the United States Attorney in Manhattan, said that he made SPF made a legal campaign contributions totally in the tens of millions of dollars and disguise them. He tried to hide them as they were coming from wealthy co conspirators, co

conspiratory conspiracy, conspiracy. In other words, sbf uz straw downers to conceal the source of these campaign contributions to evade federal laws and limits. So who are these people? And more importantly, tens of millions of dollars on top of the forty million we already know about, which will make

this the largest campaign fraud case in history. And even more interesting, we know that he was the second largest donor to the Joe Biden campaign in so how much of that five point two million plus other strong campaign donations went to Biden that were illegal? Oh, this is going to be interesting, and don't worry, I'm gonna keep you up to date on this. The one thing that should be more abundantly clear than ever is if you don't hold it, you don't own it. With bitcoin, we

say not your keys, not your coins. If you have them on coin base or Celsius or Block five or f t x and not in your own wallet, you don't own them. And so now is the time to get them off of the exchange and put them in a hardware wallet, a hardware wallet like treads or or a Ledger or cold card and you can store yourself. If you're just tune in, you're listening to the Mark mo Show talking about some of the latest breaking news.

This week's highlight, the decentralized revolution we're going through. I got a whole lot more to cover when I come back. You don't want to miss it. I'll be right back, all right, Hello, and welcome back. You are listening to the Mark Mars Show. If you're just tuning in. Of course, we're talking about the decentralized revolution, talking about some of the latest breaking news this week that shows us it's the signpost to show that we are going through this

decentralized revolution. The world is changing, of course, like I always say, right before our very eyes, and I talked about, you know, the pendulum swinging from centralization and back to decentralization. Of course, we see that we're at peak centralization with a unipolar world, US dominance, the US dollar dominance, the homogeney um as it's called, and the world is now breaking apart into a multipolar world. And of course we

can see that happening all over the place. This era, this period of peace that we've known for the last one forty fifty years is it's coming to an end. I've say it over and over. The world we're going into is not the same as the world that we've left behind. The last forty or fifty years is an anomaly when you look through thousands of years of history, the last forty or fifty years is an anomaly. It's not the way things always are, and it's not the

way things will always be. And of course, as I said, we can see that the pendulum is starting to swing back to decentralization and this is a massive signpost. And some of this is that you can see the world is breaking apart into this multipolar world instead of one uh homogeney power that that runs and controls everything. We're probably going to have multiple zones. In the beginning, it

is probably gonna go into like three zones. Eventually, I believe that we might settled with four or five different zones. And we can see it happening, and I believe is going to be a very, very big year for it. While the United States is all in with the Russia Ukraine situation. Uh, in my opinion, you know, the United States really trying to push hard onto Russia because they understand the threat that Russia poses um into this multipolar world using the Ukraine as this uh you know, proxy

to fight this war. We have lots of other areas of conflict popping up, Taiwan, when China, we got North Korea, we have Iran, Palestine, all potential flashpoints that could potentially cause a problem in two thousand and twenty three. Now, like I said, we've kind of been all in on Russia Ukraine, but you know, there's lots of other things going on in the world that just maybe we don't

get involved in. We have you know, Minimar, Yemen, Molly, Nicaragua, Republic of Congo, Somalia, Afghanistan, all types of crisis is going on. But there's three geopolitical battlegrounds that you need to keep your eye on. Fore, and this continues to show the world breaking apartment. What does it mean if the world breaks apart? Well, it means again, like I said, the world will be different. How it will be different, Well,

we'll have a lot less global cooperation. What does that mean? Well, that means are just in time, supply chains don't work as good anymore. Okay, what does that mean? It means we don't have as many products and services, especially at good prices anymore. Okay, what does that mean? Let me prices go up? Okay, what does that mean? That means your quality of life goes down if you start thinking through these things. Three geopolitical battlegrounds in particular, maybe hard

to ignore China, China and Asia. We have the Middle East situation, and of course, and we have the Russia Ukraine and really the U US Europe pretensions as well. The US and Europe are fighting, and so what's going to happen. It's it's happening really quick. We can see China is really really ramping up its military efforts and putting a kind of a display to tie on. And at the same time, we see Japan starting to shift, and we see Japan has now uh shifted. It's changed

since it's since about after World War Two. It moved into like this pacifist transition. And now Japan has decided to double its defense spending, taking it from I believe ninth in the world in defense spending all the way up to number three in defense spending. So Japan is getting ready for something like what are they getting ready for? We can see that like I said, China is really

aggressively building out its military reach. Um they're saying President g. G Mping is saying in this year, potentially in the next sixty days, could make a move on Taiwan. Could the US handle the Ukraine situation and the Taiwan situation

at the same time, It would probably very difficult. We know that General Mark Millye, chairman of the U S Joint Chiefs of Staffs, recently suggested that you Krane should probably consider peace talks, maybe because he understands, shoot, we should probably get that put away so we can address some of these other things that we have going on. But this Ukraine situation is not only taking up all our time, our focus, our effort, our energy, put our money.

Of course, in this massive omnibus bill, I think another forty five billion we're being sent to Ukraine. I believe now a hundred billion dollars have been sent to Ukraine in the last ten months just by the US, not including the other countries that are sending Ukraine aid, compared to about sixty billion that Russias spent. So the US has given Ukraine almost double what Russia has spent. And that's just on the U s alone. But it's not just Mark Milly, General Mark Milly that's talking about this.

We see other high level people. We see uh uh, Anthony Blincoln, he's the Secretary of State. Anthony Blincoln held a press conference just a couple of days before Christmas, and you know, when you listen to what he said and you kind of parse it out, he says that it looks like the administration is not capable of handling

multiple foreign policies at once. He said, quote, when it comes to Russia's war against Ukraine, if we were still in Afghanistan, it would have I think made much more complicated the support that we've been able to give and that others have been able to give Ukraine to resist and push back against the Russian aggression. So you're saying, if we were still an Afghanistan, we no way we would have been able to do all this um work

and effort with Ukraine. I mean, we've given so many weapons to Ukraine, so many long range missiles, that we are depleting our supply. You can't supply two countries the same. We don't even have enough to give them and keep what we need. So that's exactly what he's saying He's like, there's no way we would be able to do that if we were still in Ukraine. And so this is interesting something to definitely keep an eye on, and it is something that I believe will continue through the rest

of the decade. Tensions will continue to rage, the world will continue to get more divided. And that's why I've said over and over, I believe that inflation, while it's come down a little bit and came down from nine to seven, all right, Um so now inste of three six dollars a months, you're losing now, Uh, But I believe it's some of the lowest inflation will see for the decade. Because I believe this continues to get exaggerated and supply chains continue to struggle, and free trade continues

to fall. And uh, we're re on shoring a lot of manufacturing near shoring, bringing it closer to the shore, and lots of things. One of the things that we're re on shoring is our chip manufacturing. Of course, the Biden administration put together this massive stimulus package to onshore

micro chips semiconductor manufacturing in the United States. And when he did that, we have Taiwan, which manufactures the most high tech chips in the world are t SMC is now building their chip production plants here in the United States. Of course, China wants to move on Taiwan partly to get those semiconductors, and so that's gonna be an interesting thing.

China is basically dead in the water. The Biden administration shut down made illegal for China to even have Tier two and Tier three microchips and semiconductors, which means they are basically knocked back almost to the Dark Ages, not the Dark Ages, but certainly the eighties at least, and so that only agitates China even more. And this is something to keep an eye on. That's why I bring it to your attention. We are witnessing the decentralized revolution,

and this is showing us what's happening now. If you're just tuning in you're listening to the Markmas Show. Of course, we talk about the decentralized revolutions each and every week. And I look at through the lens of politics, finance, and technology, where those three converges where we should be looking, because that's how we have context to what's going on.

We're not looking at politics for politics sake. But we're looking at those three converging together so we can understand the world and understand how to maneuver to keep our wealth, grow our wealth, and our freedom. I got a whole lot more to cover. This week was busy, so don't go away. I'm gonna come back in just a minute with more. You don't want to miss it, all right, welcome back. If you're just tuning in, you're listening to

the Mark Moa Show. We're talking about the decentralized revolution, of course, each and every week, and we're looking through some of the biggest news headlines this week that show us just exactly how this world is changing, of course, so you can survive and thrive, build, grow and protect your wealth, your financial sovereignty, your freedom, and your sovereignty. Of course, money gives us options, and we need options. We need optionality in a world that's increasingly becoming more uncertain.

Uncertainty is beat by optionality. That's what money gives us. Now I'm seeing some some you know, some some bad news coming out regarding the economy, and like I said, you know, I want to help you build, grow and protect your wealth, and you need to understand what's going on you know, and a lot of talk about recession coming,

and we're seeing lots of indicators about that. As a matter of fact, um, the experts, the economists, the experts, Wall Street, etcetera, which have been wrong almost every step of the way, by the way, but they are saying that things are not looking good. That is not looking good.

As a matter of fact, we can see um. According to Bloomberg, forecasters surveyed by the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia put the probability of a downturn in the next four quarters at more than that's the highest reading since at least ninety economists that were pulled by Bloomberg I saw the chance of a of a of a recession in three at sixty five, and Bloomberg's own models put

the recession risk at one hundred percent. So between ort but even at that's the highest reading since ninety The chance of us having a reception are I'm not gonna say the percent like Bloomberg, but they're extremely high. So

what does that mean to you? What that mean if the economy goes into recession, Well, a couple of things that you need to understand and a couple of things that you need to understand so you can protect yourself is that you know, there's the there's the economy going into recession, and then there's your your own personal wealth, and I want to make sure you're protected with your personal wealth. Um, it says that right. You know, of course,

consumers are the ones that keep the economy afloat. Right, Consumers spend money into the economy. You go buy food, you go by you know, gasoline, you get services, et cetera. Consumer spending makes up about seventy percent of the economy. So it's a super important data point if if consumers, if you and I are broke, then we don't have

money to spend that sevent in the economy. And of course Jerome Powell the Federal Reserve has been very upfront, very honest, telling all of us over and over and over that his goal is to crush demand, meaning he wants to make there's no more demand to buy products, meaning everybody's broke. So his goal is to crush demand by making you broke, reverse wealth effect. Your retirement account gets cut in half, your home value is cut in half,

and you get paid less money. That's his goal. But what happens is that's makes you broke, there's less demand. You don't buy as much stuff, but the stuff you buy, consumer spending makes up the economy. It's a big problem. Now we can see that we have you know, obviously consumer income, then we have savings and hopefully you guys are saving some money. Ah. I can't stress enough how important is to save money, especially in light of of

a situation that we're going into right now. I think that you should have as much a living expenses saved a way as you possibly can. Three months should be like your your minimum. You need three months of of of of savings put away. Obviously the more is better, But what we're seeing is the opposite of that. We're seeing savings go down. Excess savings as UM labeled by the Federal Reserve, reached a high at the end of third quarter of one, so by you know, September October,

November ish or August, September October, somewhere right there. Third quarter of two one, it was a high point of two point three trillion dollars in excess savings per the Federal Reserve. But by the end of September two, a year later, excess savings had shrunk to about one point five trillion or uh just shrunk by about and even worse, they're projecting all of that excess savings to be depleted

by middle of this year. So we went from having two point three trillion dollars in wealth saved to zero by the summer of this year. That's not good now. Not only are they eating to their existing savings, they're also saving less of what they make and at the same time, and this is the worst way to go. Not only they spending other savings, but credit card debt levels are now approaching a high level mark of one trillion dollars. So the Feds crushing demand, they're doing a

really good job. Everyone's going broke right now. People are still spending, but their savings are leading and their credit card debt is going up at the same time. It's not a good place to go now. Um. On top of that, the unemployment rate is projected to shoot up by about five cent and it's not hard to see that. We see recessions, I'm sorry, layoffs are happening all over

the place. Um. The Federal Reserve, the Central Bank doesn't forecast a decline in interest rates, meaning they're not they're not expecting or planning to lower interest rates until at the at the earliest, so potentially at least another year before they even start to let off of this. I don't think they make it that far. My guess is they they they probably start lowering rates again, um second quarter of this year, I'm sorry, a third quarter of

this year would be my guest. But they're not forecast either, saying they're not going to do it until at the earliest. And so what's gonna happen. Well, we're gonna continue to see people feeling broke, which means they're going to spend less money in the economy. Set spin is from them. And when they spend less money in the economy than businesses don't make as much money. And when businesses don't make as much money, what happens They have to lay

people off. So then more people get laid off, which means there's less money being spent in the economy, which means businesses do worse, which means more people get laid off, which means less money going to the economy. And you get the point. It's the doom loop. It's the doom loop, right, and we can see it. I saw this week Amazon to lay off more than seventeen thousand employees SEVD. Now, they had projected that they were going to lay off in November of last year. They had projected they would

lay off about ten thousand people. But things got much worse than and much faster they had expected. And now they're laying off almost double what they had projected. Now, look here's what happened, right um. Amazon hired an insane amount of people. In one the photo Reserved printed, trillions of dollars shifted in the economy. Everybody started buying everything,

and Amazon had to keep up with the business. So they are building out their distribution centers and they're hiring as many people as they can to drive to deliver the pack box as you name it. Hiring all those people, and now things are slowing down and they got to lay them all off. Think you think about the insanity of that for a minute. Think about the insanity of that for a minute. So the Federal Reserve, the Central banks create booms and bus They ruin your life. I'm

just gonna say that straight up. What do I mean by that? Well, you're a business owner, you deliver services, you sell products your Amazon, you sell products whatever it is you build, uh, you know, whatever it is, whatever product or service you deliver, and the Federal Reserve decides to print trillions of dollars and shove it in the economy, and all of a sudden, your business takes off and you can't keep up with demand. You're building out distribution

centers like Amazon, and you're hiring new people. And now these people got hired on and because I need some people, we paid them a good wage. So we hired all these people and we gave them a good wage. Oh, I got a job with Amazon, the paying all this money. Now I feel good about it. Maybe my wife quits her job. Maybe I go buy a new car, I take on debt. I'm thinking, great, I got I got this great job at Amazon. We can go to you know, you don't have to work anymore, and let's get this

new car we always wanted. And then the Fed sucks the money out of the economy and everything crashes. And now, oh I just got laid off. But my wife quit her job and I took on all this debt. What do I do Now? I had this business and I hired all these people, and I bought all this capital equipment. I bought all these trucks, I bought all these machines, this equipment, and now what Now I'm stuck with all

the debt and I have no customers the services. And it's all because the central Bank, the Federal Reserve, prints a bunch of money and then sucks it all back out and shoves it back in and then sucks it back out. Now we're all sitting around waiting when will they inject more money, When will they come and save us? And then when they suck it out again, It's the game musical chairs. It's insanity. Insanity. That's why I that's why I'm a proponent for bitcoin. We need to remove

money from the hands of the government. We need to separate money in state. Money is what we want it to be. It's our medium of exchange. It's how we communicate value. We don't it's not made by the government. It's not made by the government. They just shouldn't control it. They've proven that they are not capable of handling them. You're listening to the Markmas Show talking about some of

the latest breaking news this week. To explain the decentralized revolution on a play by play, I got a whole lot more to cover when I come back a big show. Don't go away, I'm gonna be right back. Hello, Welcome back. If you're just tuning in, you're listening to the Mark Mo Show. We talked about the decentralized revolution, really highlighting the way the world is changing. As the pendulum swings from one extreme and will eventually go back to the

other extreme. We'll hit some middle ground somewhere in the middle. But it's basically kind of like if you're like a if you had like kids and you're playing bullying and you put the bumpers up in the ball just kind of pings back and forth from side to side. And I like to look at this because this tells us a lot about what we should be doing. Where should we be living, what should be doing for money, how should we be saving, what should be investing in, and

all of those things you have to understand. It's like, um, you can't drive a hundred miles an hour down the freeway in a Lamborghini with a blindfold on. You gotta be seeing what's going on. And so I'd like to take these these news headlines and explain them in context that you could understand. So you can understand what's going on here. You know, I don't typically like to get

into the politics side. I'd like to look at politics, finance, and technology, and I really like to look where those three come together, the merge of those three event diagram if you will. I don't want to talk about politics for politics sake, but when it comes to the decentralized revolution and technology and and UH and money, and then it's definitely something that we want to keep an eye on.

And you know, looking at what's going on in the political arena right now is interesting for one big reason. And and the big reason why I'm really interesting what's going on in politics right now is the the fight, the volt that's going on in the GOP and the Republican Party right now, um with basically McCarthy, Kevin McCarthy's bid to be the speaker, and they just can't get

it done. The Republican Party is divided and they don't want to nominate him, and he keeps going back to the bargaining table if you will give me more concessions and more concessions. Hey, you can remove me if you don't like me, and we'll do all these things. And yet there's you know, half the party is just stuck. They said, just no way, We're just not going to

vote for you. And now you know, we have President Trump getting involved, you have the Democratic Party getting involved in this, and uh, this is an embarrassment, and you need to get this done. And like, we work so hard to get the Republican majority there and now you're squandering all these things, which is insane. We have to, we have to. We have to get this omnibus bill rushed through in two days before Christmas. It's four thousand pages that we can't even read for one point seven

trillion dollars in spending. We better get it on the next two days, but we can't. You know, like we should be taking time on these things, like to spend one point seven trillion dollars of our kids future. That's not something that we should be rushing through in twelve

or twenty four hours right before Christmas. That's something that we should think about, we should have time, we should have open debate about, and probably who takes control of the of the speakers position is also something that we should be willing to take our time with as well. But that's not what I want to really that that's not that's not what stands out to me. What stands out to me is why what's going on here? And it looks like the revolt is really being spread by

these uh, anti McCarthy Republicans, by very prominent conservatives. And so what we're seeing, similar to what's going on the Democratic Party, is there's this divide where you have this extreme left uh you know part that's you know, trying to push you know, trans rights in elementary schools and um, you know, just crazy extreme things over on one side, and then you have the other Democratic Party that are just liberals, right, and they just want more freedom and

things like that. And you've really see this divide. And I think on the right, on the right or the Republican side, you're also seeing something similar where you have these these middle these uh I don't know, rhinos, if you will. They like to call them the Republicans, but they're really Democrats. And then you have this Democrat that these conservatives that are trying to get the party moving again. And and that that's really what this divide is about.

And the reason why this is important is, as I talk about each and every week, the decentralized revolution, this this this this utopian vision that we were all in this together. We're all alike, we're all robots, we're all gonna think and do and then the exact same thing. We're all gonna like the same thing, and we can all be ruled by one person with one ideology. Is wrong, it's it's it's flawed, it's failed. It will never work, it can't work. That's why we have individuals. That's why

we need small government. That's why we should be able to have freedom them to do these things. And so this is what it's highlighting to me, is that these parties they're breaking apart the age of centralization, of centralizing this it's over and really you kind of have this uh these uh, like I said, these Republicans who are more like Democrats right now, and and the and the Repolican Party is is trying to separate this. That's what

it's looking like to me. And it just really, like I said, highlights the fact that the world is changing like it it's kicking these people out. It doesn't want them, no matter what, no no matter if Trump gets behind them, no matter what, which is pretty interesting. Some some of the big headlines that I saw this week. That really again highlights this is the I would say, the extreme end of the Democratic Party. Um. They believe that they have the right to do whatever they want. Um, who

cares if there's laws that prevented or not. So for example, many many mayors of cities of many many prominent, very extreme left leaning mayors of cities, UM like New York, Chicago, Washington, Philadelphia, San Francisco, etcetera, UM say we don't care what the laws of the land say. We don't care about the Constitution. Even though I was sworn in the Constitution, even though I was not only one of the constitutions, I swore

to defend it from enemies both foreign and domestic. Even though I said that, hand on my heart, I don't care what the law saying. I'm not gonna not gonna defend them. And so one of those things I'm talking about is, um, these each of those cities I named, the mayors and governors in those states and cities have declared them to be sanctuary cities. So we have immigration. The United States allows people to immigrate in the United States.

The United States was built on immigration, where the great melting Pot pretty much everybody the United States came from another country at one point or another. Right that we're a melting pot, and and we need immigration. I am pro immigration. We need immigration. We're not having enough babies to sustain our own civilization. We need to import more or let more immigrate, and so and we do. I believe the United States. I don't have the a date in front of me, but I believe the United States.

Let's allow us more immigration than almost another nation out there, and we should continue to do that. But then there's a legal immigration, and that's where people come in illegally and they don't come in through proper channels. And so these these mayors and governors want to have what they call sanctuary cities where we don't care what the laws at lands say. Even though I agreed to stand up with them or protect them, we're going to allow all

these illegal people just to come live here. And um, we've been having a an invasion. We'll call it an invasion. I believe over five million illegal immigrants came across the border last year. And um, it's a massive taxing on the system. Now, this is a bigger story. I should probably do a whole hour on just on that and why this is happening, and it's about you know, check out George Soros and his UM, his nonprofit. You know, open borders, open societies. It's all about flooding the system

with immigrants to crash the system. But um, you know, to these cities. And what I saw this week is Mayor Adams of New York City, who has a sanctuary city, is said enough enough. He said, quote there's no more room at the end end quote. And he said that after learning that Colorado is the latest state that plans to ship these illegal aliens to New York. So these leaders saying, look, close the border, closed the border, but but these thanks, he said, no, we don't want to

close the border. But when when all the illegal aliens come to that city, when where it's sanctuary city, they can't take it. And even Mayor Adams now is saying no. Adam said, uh, he was right when he said, quote, no city should have to make a decision if they're going to provide for their citizens or if they're going to deal with an onslaught of migrants and asylum seekers. And that's right. We need to take care of the citizens,

the people that have come here legally. And again I'm all, I'm pro immigration, people that were born here pro immigration, et cetera. But you shouldn't have to choose. That's what Mayor Adam said. That's his that's his quote here. Um, the Sanctray mayors, who acknowledged their facing the crisis of Washington's making, still can't bring themselves to call for the real solution, which is just immigration enforcement. We allow lots of people to come here legally. We should continue to

do that. We need to enforce the laws of the land. Now, if you want to change the laws of land, go change the laws of land. Otherwise you should be enforcing the laws of land. You just swore in to protect them. I saw another another story this week. Rhonda Santis showed uh. He gave a speech and he said, he said, quote Florida is proof positive that we are we the people

are not destined for a failure. And he flagged the number one problem, um is the floundering federal establishment in d C, which wields his authority through a spallen on account, unaccountabilit out of touch bureaucracy. And he's proved it. California had the most people leave the state than any other state in the nation. Florida had the most people go there out of any state in the nation. People are voting with their feet. That's how we vote, with our

feet and with our money. That's exactly what's happening in Florida's exactly what's happening with this immigration problem. People are voting, not at the polls, which doesn't count, but with their with their feet, with their feet in the money. And the world is decentralizing. That's what I got. You're listening to the Mark Moas Show talking about the decentralized revolution. Thanks for listening.
