Transcript
To the Untold History Channel. It is Sunday morning, August 11. Hard to believe. It’s like we’re almost halfway through August. Jimbo. August 11, 2024. And it is turning out to be an extraordinarily hot summer. I have with me the honor, as always, to have Doctor Jim Willey having on the doctor, editor of the Golden Hyphen Jackass. You can find him at golden hyphen jackass.com dot. And I was going to say something to my audience, but Jim actually offered to say something to say it instead. So. And I may piggyback on it, but, Jimbo, go ahead. When I do podcasts, interviews, shows, whatever you want to call them, they’re very tiring.
I get exhausted. Sometimes they’re over an hour. I have to have really good control of data, a good connection between my brain stem and my tongue, and I get tired. So I welcome additional comments from the host. And when it’s a bright guy like Ron, I like to hear his comments and his interjections and his little follow up comments and questions. So get off his case, people. I do not get on shows in order to dominate 95% of the time or 90% of the time. That is not my style, and it’s very tiring. So I welcome comments from the host so that I could take a break, so that I can get a sip of water, so I can collect some notes and move on.
Yeah. And I will say that, you know, Jim and I are friends. Jim and I have become pretty good friends over the course of the last four years. And when Jim and I are having these. These things, this is essentially exactly the way we talk to each other when we’re on a phone call. And I like it. Yeah, exactly. I like it. Right? Hey, Ron, I gotta tell you, you said this is a hot summer. This is gotta be the strangest, most bizarre, most corrupt, most censored, most distorted, most insane summer I have ever lived during.
Yeah. And right now, we can’t avoid the political scene. I mean, I am not a political animal. I voted sometimes republican. I voted for Reagan. I voted a couple times democratization. I found that extreme. Democrats like McGovern. I didn’t vote for McGovern in 68. I thought he was a joke. Okay. I don’t vote for extremes. And I got to say, when Kamala Harris or Kamala Harris or Kamal to, or whatever you call her, when she was pushed forward without a single delegate vote, I thought, this is a joke. And now we’re getting another joke where newscasters are.
It’s two things. Two things. They’re saying that Kamala Harris is a centrist, meaning center of the road, not liberal, not conservative. Center of the road. No, she’s more liberal in her voting record than Bernie Sanders. And that’s the extreme in the senate. So this is an absolute joke. Now they’re trying to describe Governor walts of Minnesota as a centrist, and he’s nothing but like a new world order Nazi. Yeah, he’s communist, basically. He’s a marxist. But, but he’s got open borders and we’ll talk a little bit more. But he’s like a new world order Nazi on steroids.
He’s not center. And here’s the second part I promised, two parts I’ve seen twice now and there. I’m sure there are a lot more from what I’ve seen. I’m, because I don’t go searching for them often in the political realm, the newscasters are contradicting the claim that Kamala Harris and what’s his name, Waldo Waltz or Psycho. Psycho waltz. Is that psycho? That’s Psycho waltz. Oh, no. Horse come waltz. I’m a little confused. Horse come horse come waltz. Something like that. I’m telling you, these guys are psychos. They’re getting contradicted by the press. And to me, remember I said a month or two ago we’re likely to get very extreme candidates for the Democrat.
Yes. Okay, we’ve got it. We’ve got it. We got an extreme Nazi as a VPN, and we got an extreme liberal moron, commie and a psycho. They’re both psychos. I’d like to add something here real quick. They’re not centrists, they’re extremists. I’d like to add something real quick. And I was just made aware of this yesterday. So my mother and father, my father mostly, before he passed, had a really good friend who was an attorney here in California. And he said that he and his son, who was also an attorney, they had an, they had a law firm and they dealt with Kamala Harris when she was the, the secretary of, or was.
She was the attorney general of California. He said they dealt with her a couple of times, you know, in the same room, like, sitting at the same table. And he said that she was not the brightest tool in the shed or the bright. She’s not only stupid, but she’s corrupt. I mean, she completely botched and dismissed the Planned Parenthood sale of fetuses. She kept people in jail. I heard two different stories. A bunch of black guys. I think it was for marijuana. She kept them in jail after they won their appeal. She’s nothing but a Nazi with no respect for law.
And she admitted to do it. And she admitted to smoking marijuana as well. She admitted it on camera, like, yeah, you know, in the nineties in Boston, when I was, I was there 20 years in Boston, I didn’t pick up the accent, but I, but I can, I could talk a little bit, you know, like Harvard yard and, you know, Fenway park and Dorchester, down in Dorchester. Wicked smart. And up the river there, we had a. We picked up. Oh, gosh, what was his name? Dominique Wilkins. In basketball. The Celtics. That’s we. I’m a Celtics fan.
We won the championship, by the way, and the Lakers did not. So stick that in your pipe and smoke it. This interview is almost over. Okay. They had a nickname for Dominique Wilkins. Ron is a fan who’s a Laker fan. Dominic Wilkins had a nickname of the human highlight reel. Yeah. Okay. Kamala Harris is going to get a reputation and might be the most mocked political figure in modern history. Mocked. And they’re not going to just make stuff up. They’re going to use her own quotes, like the significance of something significant. I don’t know if it’s significant for you, but my significance is probably equal to your significance.
And if you don’t think it’s significant, it might still be significant in the passage of time. Time. And time is important because time, it means the movement and passage of time. They’re going, Elon Musk is teaming up with Donald Trump, and they’re making the most devastating mockery that I’ve ever seen in political, in my political years. And I’m not a political animal. I’m more interested in sports than I am in politics. And I think most of politics is pretty damn corrupt. So we’re seeing that now. Now we’re seeing the MSM news trying to paint Harrison Walts as centrist figures, trying to get the center vote.
And you know what, Ron? They’re going to get a backfire like you can never believe. It’s going to be such a bad backfire. It’s going to singe their hairs, going to singe their eyebrows, and it’s going to make them one of the biggest jokes in modern political history. I don’t disagree, Jim. And, you know, I, this is something that, I know I’ve said this to you in the past, but I think it bears repeating a little bit. You know, I always, I love to use the analogy of the, the 2000 movie Miracle about the american hockey team playing the Russians.
You miracle on ice. Miracle on ice. Okay. So they made a movie, a recreating that it was a Disney movie. And what, what it showed, the very last, at the very, very last minute of the hockey game, the, the russian team is down by a goal. And they were, the american team was waiting for the russian team to pull their goalie because, to get put on the ice. And they, and the reason that they didn’t, and, well, it was, it was, it was speculative. But Kurt Russell, who was the head coach playing the head coach, he said he doesn’t know what to do.
He doesn’t know what to do. He doesn’t know to pull his goalie because they hadn’t been behind in a game in 20 years and they didn’t know what to do. They had not practiced it. Right. And this is exactly what the deep state right now as I see it, they do not know how to, that all the tricks that they have played over the past hundred years are no longer working with the public. Well, it, they did work four years ago somewhat. But the lesson, the demo, I call this a demo of fascism. They’re calling it democracy and it’s anything but.
You don’t have censorship in a democratic state system. You don’t have lawfare trying to jail political opponents in a democratic system. This is not democracy. Part of this fascist demo run is trying to convince people that fascism is democracy. They’re trying to explain, oh, no, no. The Trump supporters are domestic terrorists. No, they’re political opponents. They’re trying to say that all this information is misinformation to mislead the public. No, it’s the truth. And the MSM is producing tremendous. They’re not small lies. They’re gigantic lies, like safe and effective. No, it wasn’t safe or effective. And it led to a lot of dead people.
I’ve got a guy here, and honestly, Ron, he has 28. That was the count a few months ago. 28 people that he knew directly took the vaccine. They’re dead. Wow. 28 people. I know. Only three direct and eight total. Direct and indirect. Eight. All right, so we’re being lied to. We’re being gaslighted. And, you know, I gotta be honest. I didn’t, a year ago, I didn’t know what Gaslight meant, but now I do. I’d like to say something about that. You know, it’s interesting to me that when, in 2012, when they did the Smith Munt Modernization act, which allowed the media to gaslight without legal ramifications, because the, the whole Smith Munt act at the outset, in 1948, I believe, was designed so that the mainstream media or the press in the United States could not deliberately lie or propagandize the american people.
Obama reach that so that they could now run the point. Run, run. I need to go for that 1 minute now. You continue. Okay. Okay, go ahead, go ahead. Perfect. The, what they did with that was Trump, I think, could have stopped and stopped that, but he didn’t. They let it go. And my feeling is, my feeling is that the reason they let it go was to allow, you know, what was the, what was the quote? Never interrupt an enemy in the process of, of destroying itself. And I firmly believe that that is what happened. And sorry, guys, the, Jim mentioned to me before we started that he had to take a very brief, uh, break here.
So let me see if I can, uh, I can’t stop his camera. So, um, but anyway, I just want to go back and wrestle with that, with the topic that I said at the very beginning. It’s not my intention to ever interrupt Jimbo. You got to realize, though, that there is a slight delay. And sometimes if I’m making a point or try to get in, try to get something in, it appears as though I’m talking over him. But it’s really just because there’s a little bit of a delay. So I don’t ever try to interrupt Jim.
I want to let him go, but at the same time, I want to get some, you know, I want to make. You want to get your two cent in there. Well, because when I talk to you, it’s like, you know, my juices are flowing just like yours are. So is that, I mean, you know, we’re two pretty intelligent guys, and, you know, when, you know, you get two people in the head, two. Two heads, you know, when they say two heads are better than one, three heads are better than two, that sort of thing. So anyway, just wanted to say that.
So anyway, continue there, Jimbo. Yeah, I missed your entire point. I got only the beginning. It was that the MSM was now given permission to propagandize and tell lies. Not only that, but the, but the Trump administration did not overrule that. Or they did. They did not veto. They allowed that to stay in place even though they had a majority, they allowed that to stay in place. And my feeling is, is that they knew that that would ultimately be their undoing. Because, you know, you know, people are suckers for the truth. People just want the truth.
And if they find out the truth, and then they find out, they’ve been lied to, they’re going to be mad. And I. And I. And I believe that more and more people are becoming angry at the fact that they’ve been lied to. I actually have a slightly different perspective. I think people prefer to be lied to. If it’s a nice, comfortable story, like our country has not been taken over, we’re just evolving. And this is not the new world order. This is a different form of democracy. And our leaders, they like to be given advice in the background by Soros and Schumer and Obama.
They like that advice. That’s not gaslighting. It’s outright lie. I think a lot of people enjoy being lied to. If the end result is a nice, comfy cozy story of bullshit, they like it. I know too many people who say, I don’t think I could live in a world like that. What you’re describing with child trafficking and political puppetry and bribery to the military and all that, Jim, I don’t think I could live without all that. Well, I don’t exactly believe what they say on the news, but I want to. Okay, that’s it, Ron. That’s it.
They want bullshit. They don’t want the truth. Let me just change my curtain here a little bit. I say curtain and I mean that kind of in a college dormitory sense, it’s. I think you’re right on that. Honestly, Jim, I think people, they like to hear. What is their normalcy bias? It’s more comfortable. The normalcy bias. Yeah, that’s a good word for it. Normalcy bias. I caught the lie for comfy cozy picture. And it’s the normalcy bias because that makes them comfortable and cozy. Hey, look, I don’t need to protect myself from a foreign invasion. It’s just a bunch of people looking for a better life to cross Texas.
Oh, my gosh. We’ve got maybe over 100,000 false votes per state lined up per state because of the migrant problem. These people are being permitted to be on the voting rolls and they’re not even citizens. My gosh, why don’t we let, like a couple million in Switzerland vote for our presidential election? Why don’t we open it up to Kenya? Let’s let Kenyans vote and let the Somalis vote. And by gum, let’s let Libyans vote for our president. Oh, my God. This is stupid. Okay? This is all part of open society. George Soros, now his son Alex, and it’s the open society foundation that wants open borders.
And, you know, open borders is not people looking for a better life. Open borders is to wreck societies. It is to, I think, dilute cultures. I mean, the United States has a culture. I don’t think it’s a great culture, but it’s our culture and I think we should be able to preserve our culture. And let me just say something else, Ron. I’d like to talk about the Democrat Party with some specifics. Okay. Okay. Wow. Far away. Okay. I believe the Democrat Party is on a mission. Whether it’s voluntary or involuntary, they are destroying their party. They are on a self destruct mode.
I’ve told this story before, but I started my job, my first job at digital Equipment corpath. Number two, computer manufacturing and software and service company in the world. Number two, Digital Equipment Corp. We call ourselves Dec. And I was a decky. I loved being a decky for twelve years. And in my third year I had some advice by somebody who said, jim, you know, Stanley, our manager is a bit of an ass and he’s a stupid guy and he makes a lot of mistakes. Don’t get in the way of a man on self destruct. Don’t get in his path.
The Democrats now have put forward one of the weakest candidates for president that I have ever seen in my entire life. Kamala Harris. That’s saying something. That’s saying something. Because they had Mondale and Dukakis. Dukakis was actually pretty good. Don’t get on Dukakis’s case. He did a good job in Massachusetts and he had some really good ideas about the farm sector, like growing endive, which is a higher profit than corn because everybody and his brother was growing corn and the price was not strong. So he said, why don’t you have a little bit of variety in what you grow instead of corn, wheat and soy? Wake up, you farmers.
Have you ever heard of varied growing? Okay, don’t get on Dukakis cake, but Mondale. Yeah, ridiculous. McGovern. Yeah, ridiculous. There was a guy in Maine, monkey or monkey or mongo or something like that, can’t think of his name. Okay. We have had a lot of real jokes for president. Kamala Harris cannot stand on her record in California or the Senate, where she did nothing. And therefore I think she would push forward. I’m talking about intentional self destruct, Ron. I’m talking about self destruct where if they don’t follow the plan that the White alliance hands them, they’re going to be taken to Gitmo for a very tight necktie.
I agree. I’m thinking sabotage, Ron. I’m thinking this is planned democrat I mean, fascist, Demo. Why didn’t they put out a decent vice president? They put out the worst that you can imagine. Well, that begs the question, is the white alliance, if you want to, whatever you want to call it, is the white alliance responsible for making sure that Biden and Harris was the ticket? I think the Democrats are suffering from two big problems. Their leaders face treason charges and therefore are probably making deals. In addition, they don’t have anybody really solid from the center who can oppose Trump, who I believe in a fair election would win by at least 50% to 60%.
Minimum. Minimum. That’s why I said at least. I like the word at least because I, I can think bigger and talk lower. At least 40% to 50%. Probably 50% to 60% in an honest election. Okay. The Democrats don’t have any good leader. Why doesn’t New York Senator Schumer run for president? Good question. Very good question. He has a lot of respect in his party. He’s a leader of the party. And usually a president candidate comes from leadership within the party. Well, the answer is that he’s got his own skeletons in the closet and he doesn’t want to get run over by a steamroller called Trump.
So they don’t have the center, they don’t expect to win, and they put out an extreme candidate. Well, here’s, here’s another little political science factoid that I figured out over the years. The vice president is always someone of lesser stature than the pea brain ego of the, of the presidential candidate. Now, Kamala Harris cut her teeth, or should I say cut her tongue, as a call girl in San Francisco, sitting on faces, I’m sorry, sitting on chairs and doing her typical, I don’t know whether you call it, you know, BJ’s or PJ’s or whatever, but she, they’re now trying to silence San Francisco staffers for the mayor’s office.
They’re trying to keep them all quiet, but the word is getting out that Kamala Harris was a party favor to influence California votes at the California legislature. She had passed around. And this was like 15 years ago when she was really quite good looking. And I’m telling you, those hips, those hips in a short skirt I keep, every time I email that to a friend, I take another look at those hips. Okay? She was a party favor, okay? And that is not something on a political resume. And you don’t have, you know, Michelle Obama as a candidate because there’s too much blackmail.
Michael, my big mike. Yeah, big Mike. You can’t do that. Because you get all kinds of problems. And, you know, his political experience is gay coke parties in the White House, and you can’t really talk about that on mainstream news as a resume item. He didn’t have a project. His project was to go down on as many senators as he could. I mean, this is a really sick stick Democrat party and it’s really a fascist party, and they should all be wearing brown shirts, but they’re not. I think it’s more, and I agree with you, but I think it’s much bigger than strictly just the Democrat party.
I think it’s also the republican party because it’s just the illusion that one side is left and one side is right. But I believe they both are marching to the same. I understand that, but I, you know, you got to be careful what you, when you paint with a broad brush like that. The republican party has a lot of really decent conservatives and patriots. What you’re pointing to is, is the element that might be a quarter or less of the Republicans, which are rhinos, by the way. Let me, let me correct. By the way, people, there’s no ancient rhino.
It’s republican in name only. Rino, let me correct you on that, because I’m not talking about individuals in the republican party. I’m talking about the republican party establishment. Establishment. The core, at the extreme top, the one who’s responsible for donate, for getting money out to the candidates who are running for re election. They’re uniparted, in your opinion. Okay? So I’m not going to suggest, like, single individual candidates or members of Congress are bad if they’re Republicans. I’m not saying that. I’m talking about, I’m talking about the core part party itself. And also, I think one of the bad things is that the people of this country have gotten to the point where they are voting party over country, and that is a very dangerous place to be.
Yeah, well, I agree with you because what is it, Lindsey Graham as a Republican? Okay, well, he’s, he’s dirty. He’s a pro war, you know, Hawk, he’s disgusting. Every time I hear him talk and see him, you know, when you see print from his quotes, it’s disgusting. I mean, he regards war as noble and as our duty. What? Endless war. Endless war. Endless war. I annoy the hell out of my father by saying, dad, you know, I don’t, I don’t believe in endless war. You buy each story and I don’t. Okay. There are other people who are rhinos in there.
I believe, I believe McConnell is a Democrat, I believe. No, McConnell is republican. But he’s the House. He’s the House, sorry. He’s another rhino. He’s the Senate. McConnell’s the Senate. McConnell. McConnell was the Senate majority leader under Trump. And then when party, I get confused. Republicans and his wife. Okay, all right. His wife is. I get a little confused because there’s, there’s so many prominent names. Lindsey Graham is nothing, is not the majority leader. He’s just a scummy republican senator. Okay. At the top when they run the party and have their majority and minority leaders. Yeah.
That makes it quite evident that you’re dealing with the unit party. The unit party. And, you know, I got to tell you my own little political history. In 1992, when Bill Clinton was running for president, I did a substantial amount of homework. I did a good deal of homework and I did a good deal of purchasing of various political type newsletters. We didn’t have as much Internet content back in 92, but we had some. It just wasn’t as developed. Right now it’s 100 times bigger. And what I learned was Bill Clinton wasn’t just a guy who was a philandering fool with all kinds of women and abuse, and he wasn’t just a bond market fraud king he was involved with the Mena airport, involved with cocaine.
Oliver north and I made a conclusion and I tested it over and over again. It all came back as confirmation that Bill Clinton and Papa Bush had a lot in common. And it was on the business side and it’s called cocaine. They were working together. They were working together. And, you know, I was wondering, why doesn’t Papa Bush run for a second term? Well, he was tired from the eight years where he was really running a lot behind the Reagan administration. May I, may I run something out there for you to think about? Okay. So I am of the opinion that, number one, they already knew in advance that 911 was going to happen well in advance.
And they needed to make sure that they had people in place that would be in the, in the presidency during that time. And had Bush run, had Bush run at Bush won in 92, that would, could, potentially could have derailed that. So you had, Clinton had two full terms. So you had a lame right. And secondarily, what happened at the end when, when Bush lost in 92, what was going on at that time? That was when the Soviet Union had collapsed and you had all of these oligarchs from the west who, these basically carpetbaggers who went over into the, in, into Russia and were plundering all of the natural resources within the collapsed Soviet Union and the former republics.
And I believe Bush was instrumental in all. He was busy. He was busy. He had a project. So he handed over the White House to Bill Clinton. Right. Okay. But here’s a conclusion I arrived at, and it was probably about 94, two years into the Clinton administration. I concluded that we had the narco party and we had the tea party of independence. The narco party included Papa Bush, Bill Clinton, and all the higher ups. I slowly concluded that the higher up the position, the more involvement there was in the narco trade, whether it was military or political bribery.
Let it go. Don’t prosecute it. So we had the narco party. They called the Uni Party. I called the narco party. It’s the same thing. It’s the same thing. The war chest for bribery. Among them, the uni party is narco money. The war chest. You got a trillion dollars, and they use it for bribery, having to do with big tech governor, governors, and in all the states, election commissions, judges, military heads, brass. It’s narco money. A trillion dollar war chest. Okay, I got to make a certain point, and I’ve mentioned this before, but it’s really interesting to know how much time passed between Ronald Reagan’s 1981 inauguration and he got shot.
It was like three months, not even two. Yeah, it was the end of March 20, I think. Not quite two months. All right. There was a joke back then that Ronald Reagan really didn’t have control of his meetings. In the first Ronald Reagan one administration, Papa Bush took over, and in the second, it was Ronald Reagan claiming that he didn’t have control when he wanted control, because he was realizing that he lost control. Ronald Reagan’s eight years are considered really fine years from republicans, but not in my view. I observed it. I observed it. I called it.
It was Rasputin in charge named George Herbert Walker Bush. Okay, all right. So I thought that I called the uniparty the monarcho party, and I got into big arguments with my brother, and he said, no, Jim Clinton’s a Democrat. You don’t understand. It’s a different party. I said, john, you don’t understand the common link. It’s called narco money laundering and distribution. Mena Air Force Base, Papa Bush, CIA, Narco business, all under the US government, Aegis. And he said, you’re crazy. Okay? That’s my brother who just sucked up dry the New York Times. Every effing lie they ever told, he bought.
I have a joke. I have a little phrase. Let me just get the phrase in is there any plate of MSM bullshit that you do not swallow whole? Here’s a little tidbit of information that you know. So when, when Clinton became president in 92 or actually like January 93. Yep. Many people believe that the MEna operation moved to Stewart Air Reserve Base. Now, Stewart Air reserve base is up. It’s basically just kind of like south of Albany and southeast of Albany, right near the tri state area of where Connecticut, miss, Massachusetts and New York. Right there.
Right. Well, if you look very closely, that is the intersecting point of the two flights that came out of Boston. Logan, that hit the towers. Wow. Okay, I hear you. I hear you. Just a little bit of information there. Now, who was running the, who was the governor of New York back then? Because that’s an important point. I don’t remember who the governor was in 2000. I don’t either, but I’ll look it up. In Arkansas. They had, they had Clinton during the Mena Air Force base. Mena was not a big air force base. It was more like an airfield.
It wasn’t even an air force base. It was just a, it was a private airport that they, that they used to bring and they expanded. It was an airfield. That’s what I call a small airport airfield. All right, all right. Enough of all that. The uniparty is very important as a concept in Pataki. Governor Pataky. Pataki. Okay. I couldn’t tell you why. They probably just bribed him and told him to shut up or we’ll murder your whole family. That’s how they work. You know, people who think I’m extreme in my thoughts. These are very basic new world order tactics.
Basic. Basic. Okay. I got to tell you that I had an element in my July report where I outlined the various points for why I believe the Democrat party is on self destruct. People are going to wake up and become aware that they’ve been lied to and gaslighted. I gotta admit, a year ago, I had to ask some clients. It was early 2023. I said, I keep hearing gaslight. What’s that all about? Something about the energy trade. And I was told, no, no, it’s from a novel where a sick woman was told that the gas lights were not dimmer and they were dimmer, and she kept saying they were dimmer.
And finally she agreed that they’re not dimmer because she had been successfully gas lighted. Notice that it’s not gas lit. It’s gas lighted. A stove is gas lit, but the public is gas lighted. Okay. These are very interesting terms, and I guarantee you, half the american public doesn’t know what gaslighting is. I’m not impressed with the intelligence level of the United States public. I think that they are extremely gullible. And I have had another story in my July newsletter of a very long list of lies for public events that the american public bought, hook, line and sinker, like the Oklahoma City bombing from fertilizer.
Are you kidding? Fertilizer would knock out the windows and ruin the paint. A fertilizer explosion would not knock out a third of the steel and cement structure. People, you gotta wake up to science. You gotta really pick up some scientific facts, because most of public is really, really dumb, and we’re not talking to dumb people in this audience. When I say american people, I’m not referring to your audience. I regard your audience probably as very smart. Agreed. And another thing about the Oklahoma City thing that people don’t realize is the building blew out. And if the explosion happened on the street, I know, into the building, how is that building going to go blow outward and hit across the street? I mean, that completely defies physics.
I know. And the fact that people can’t put that together is just mind boggling. Well, they bought the stupid story. They saw the picture afterwards, they saw the damage inside, and they said it must have pushed inside of. Okay, they bought the story. That’s stupid. They bought the same stupid story at 911, at the Pentagon. Okay, I remember there was a CNN reporter named Ian McIntyre, and I was watching it, it was 912, the day after. And he said, there’s still debris, there’s still smoke. I’m on the Pentagon lawn, and there’s no evidence of any airline debris, and he went missing, his career was over, and he might have been snuffed out or put.
You know, when it’s a good guy who says the truth and he’s captured by the good guys, he’s given witness protection. Now, Ian McIntyre might have been taken by the good guys, like, for instance, John F. Kennedy junior taken by the good guys and put into witness protection, like Elvis Presley put in witness protection by the good guys and become a minister in Simi Valley, California, for 30 years. But when the bad guys capture you and say, hey, look, you went way over the line, your career is over, and then all of a sudden they’re dead, and you never hear from them again.
I don’t know which is true. And the same outcome comes the result. The result is the same outcome. If it’s by the good guy. Witness protection, you don’t hear about it anymore. If it’s the bad guys they kill, and you don’t hear about it anymore. Okay. Ian McIntyre disappeared. I learned from him a lot. There’s no airline debris on the lawn of the Pentagon. I’ve told this story before, but it was around 2009. I went downtown. I went to a sports bar. It was during the Christmas holidays, and they’re really tough because most people just find their own families, you know, I went downtown to a sports bar, and I was watching a Steeler game, and there was a guy sitting next to me, and this was like, you know, between Christmas and New Year, an NFL game.
And the guy I got, I stuck, struck up a conversation with him, and I learned that he was with a three year us army military stint. And I said, where’d you serve? Overseas? He said, no, I served at the Pentagon. I was at an. At a military base just outside the Pentagon. And I said, oh, my gosh. Were you there during 911? He said, yep. 2010. I’m sorry, 2000, 2001, and 2011. And I said, you got to tell me, what did you see? And he said, well, I went to the site, and there was no airline debris.
That’s one of the stupidest stories ever told the american public. He said, what I saw was a 50 meters sphere where everything pushed out. 50 meters. Everything pushed out. And they had yellow tape all around the outside. And it was kind of, what do you call it? Melted metal and wood and carpet and junk. And he said it smelled. And we were looking at filing cabinets, pieces of computer carpets that were singed, and we were on the outside of a sphere, 50 meters in radius. I might have said diameter. It was radius. And the word got out that everything got pushed out.
And then they tried to silence some conclusions made by forensics, you know, analysts and engineers. He said it was 100 pounds of Semtex. Okay, I want to tell you a quick story. You probably have never heard me, because I don’t think I’ve ever even talked about this. I have a close personal friend who was working security at the Pentagon that day, and he was in the Navy, and he had a top series, top secret clearance. So when he actually was, he went into that area of the Pentagon to where, because they had to go pick up any papers that were considered classified before they could let anybody in there.
He said there were dead bodies, but there was no airplane parts at all. There were no aircraft parts. And not only that, moreover, he watched. There was a. He told the story about how this. This box truck came in and set up a little, like, makeshift fence out. And then they put like a blue tarp over it where the people came in and out. And he said, and they were all wearing FBI jackets, and these people were taking things out of. Of this box truck in this little tent area, going and putting them on the ground and taking pictures.
And he said, what? He. What? He didn’t think about it at the time, but after the fact, he’s like, I witnessed them putting things down on the ground and taking pictures, making believe that that’s evidence. So they were planting evidence at that time. He watched it. He watched them plant evidence. All right, I get it. The main point, pardon me, Ron, is that we’re being lied to on every major event. In my July report, I made a list of about 30 different stories. Now, I told this story before in zero nine, I considered doing a marketing program for the newsletter.
There was. There were two guys. One was from a foreign nation, one was from the United States. And the one guy named Mike, he was really nice. And I struck up more of a conversation with him. My other partner was talking to the other guy, I think it was australian or british or something. And I asked, Mike, what did you do in the last few years? Like, tell me about your other marketing programs. And he said, well, we’ve only been at this for a couple of years. I was working for Halliburton during the tail end of the iraqi war.
And I said, oh, my gosh, Halliburton. So was it true? And all the different incidents of shooting from the helicopter and having kind of war games on the iraqi public? And he said, oh, yeah, that and worse. A lot of stuff, Jim. But he said, my mission was to locate the weapons of mass destruction. And the public story was they found none. He said, we found ten warehouses of chemical and nuclear weapons. Ten warehouses. And we cleaned it all up. And they all had USA markings from Papa Bush sales. Right? Okay. We’re lied to about everything that’s really important.
That’s why when people like us have doubts at the initiation of a new story, we need to be taken seriously, because we have successfully waded through sea of bullshit for 30 years, and we’re not easily fooled. All right, I’d like to talk about finance, Ron and I got some very important points. I know there’s a lot of people who tune into you specifically for that, so have at it. Ever since a debate, which I can’t even mention the word debate without laughing at what I saw. And the worst comment I heard was from Donald Trump. He said, well, I don’t know what he just said.
And I’m pretty sure he doesn’t know either. That’s one of the classic lines that we’re going to hear about for a long time after that, it became quite apparent because in a certain political poll, I think it’s called politic elect, something like that. Anyway, it’s a certain political poll that I watch once in a while, and we had a 15 point or 17 point move up for Trump and a 17 point move down for Biden. So what does the mainstream news tell us? Trump picked up 3%. No, it was 17. I concluded at that point that we are going to start to see, let’s just say, the entrenched, corrupt politicos, political figures.
They’re going to start cutting deals with Trump and Team Trump in order not to be left out, in order not to be, let me just say, cut deals in order not to be arrested for treason and sent to the tribunals. Pardon me. So we started seeing cut deals, and then you also started hearing about, well, Trump might have compromised on a couple of important areas where we don’t want them to compromise. Hold the line, Donald. Well, that’s not how you survive in politics. I firmly believe that the next three years, two to three years, are going to involve interim period where the wicked, corrupt powerful are weakened and they’re going to be wicked, corrupt weakened, not wicked corrupt powerful.
And the only way you do that is you cut deals with these people so they don’t let loose doomsday devices and Margberg viruses and all kinds of mayhem. So I started to pay attention. Well, what policy changes should we expect from Trump as the new president? Whether it’s his handed second term late or his elected second term from an election? I don’t know which it’s going to be, and I don’t really care because I’m pretty darn certain that Trump is going to be in the White House running things next January. Here’s what. Well, I wouldn’t bet my life, but I bet, I bet my pinky finger.
Well, let me, let me, let me tell you. So people who think that the, you know, in 2016, the, the Patriots prevented Hillary from stealing the election, do you not think it’s not possible for them to do that again? I’m a firm believer that everything that happened in 20, 1820 and 22 was happened as it was supposed to happen, to give certain individuals the control that they needed at that moment in time to further the cause of where we are now. Number 120 18 with the squad, AOC and Ayanna Pressley and all those people, whether or not they’re white hats, I don’t know.
But what I do know is they pushed the democratic party hard left extraordinarily fast. And how many people have departed the Republic or the Democrat party as a result of them pushing that radical agenda really, really fast? And how many people, how many people have we heard say, I, the Democratic Party, the democratic party left me? So now, take it from what it’s worth. And I don’t, I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know. I don’t. I understand what you’re saying. And I believe there’s a good deal of evolution in pushing hard left. Because when they pushed left far enough, they met the far right extreme.
At 06:00 on the dial, the fascists met the Marxists. They had to push far left because they were making like an unholy axis of narcos, Satanists and narcos, Satanists and Marxists. That’s the unholy alliance. Okay, let me get to the policies, the financial policies for Trump, because these are really quite interesting. And they’ve got a common outcome, I believe. Let me see if I can remember them all. I’m going off the top of my head, but these are things that I’ve discussed a few times in sequence, so they’re at the tip of my tongue. Donald Trump mentioned that he wants to cut interest rates.
He said we need to reduce the borrowing costs on the debt. Okay, well, that sounds really nice. And to me, it’s kind of like a cocaine addict saying, well, I used to snort cocaine every hour, and now I’m going to snort cocaine every hour except after dinner. Okay, imagine now you got a $1.2 trillion borrowing costs bill that’s added to the deficit. Well, if you reduce the interest rates, it might go down to 1.1 trillion. And is that going to mean anything? Very, very little. I think what they’re trying to do is cause a bond market rally so instead they can continue to do auctions and find stupid financial entities as buyers of our debt ridden, failing, defaulting bonds.
Now, if they do, there was a Jan Hatzius or John Hatzias Goldman Sachs article on zero hedge last week or two weeks ago, and it was so timely that I laughed when I read it. They took falsified consumer price index. They took false meaning, low and falsified jobless data and falsified economic data. And they said, we can justify 150 basis point cut for interest rates by the Fed in the next several months. I mean, they had their conclusion, and they worked backwards to justify it with falsified economic statistics. We’re in like a seven or 9% price inflation environment, and we’re in probably a minus four -6% depression for the economy.
And they’re trying to justify, after the fact, after we’ve had calls by certain bankers, we need 150 basis point cut. We need like six cuts of 25 basis points. We need 150, we need 150. And suddenly there’s a zero hedge article with Goldman Sachs authoring it. Okay? When they do that, it’s not going to mean diddly squat for the deficit. It’s going to bring about a very brief treasury bond rally. And I like that, because it might keep the stock market levitated until Trump is in power. And remember, they’re trying to manage that transition until Trump is in power.
But what it’s going to do, Ron, it’s going to lift the gold price. You reduce the interest rates and you lift gold. The interim, what do you call it, the intermediary step, is you lower the interest rates, you weaken the dollar, you lift gold. Will it also lift silver, or are they correlated? Gold and silver are always correlated. But what we’ve noticed in the last two weeks, since that Japan incident, that was rather staggering, enormous, historic, and probably, I would say 80% of Americans didn’t hear about it. They thought the stock market punch was something else.
I don’t know what they thought, because they’re mindless. 80%. We’re now learning that gold is a financial crisis refuge, and silver is the economic depression or recession victim. So the consensus is, oh, looks like we got such a weak economy, we’re going to get an interest rate cut, but the weak economy means lower demand for silver. No, it’s not. No, it’s not. So this is a buying opportunity. A huge discount. India is not going to slow down their solar farms. California is not going to slow down their solar farms. China is not going to slow down their solar farms.
And there’s a lot more silver demand because it’s so correlated with gold. I know a number of clients who said, well, Jim, I don’t think I’m going to buy gold after it’s held. Silver is down a little bit. I don’t think I’ll buy that. I said, good idea. You won’t regret it in a year. It’s a discount. Okay, that’s only one policy. Let’s reduce the interest rates so we get a benefit for the debt borrowing cost, which will not be substantial at all. But we’ll get a bond rail and that’ll help keep stocks up and we get a gold impact.
Notice that gold did not go down in the last week, not even during the japanese hit. It did not go down. It stayed right around 2400. I was disappointed with the drop in silver. And I read that it’s a CTA, the commodity trading. What’s the commodity trading? Accounts, agencies accounts. Anyway, I can’t think what CTA stands for, for the a. But the commodity experts, financial investment experts, they continued holding gold and they sold their silver. They’re going to regret that because we’re going to get a quick bounce back. Okay. There are other policies. Here’s another one.
Trump wants to. Oh, gosh. Trump wants to reduce the spending for Ukraine and reduce the aid, but he’s not going to bring about a decline in the budget. The budget, what do you call it, the total budget. He’s going to shift the money from Ukraine to Israel. And he’s a very loyal subject, wearing one of those small hats. We’re not going to get a budget deficit relief from a conclusion to the Ukraine war. We’re going to get a transfer to Israel. While they try to provoke a war with Iran, Trump and Vance are on record saying we need to handle Iran.
And I think it’s a big mistake and it’s an entirely separate topic. Maybe we’ll talk about later. But I prefer not. But Trump has also said, ron, go ahead. I was going to say a couple of things. I am, I am more of the opinion that Trump is a, you know, operating with the godfather type mentality of keep your friends close and your enemies closer with, with Israel, you know, and I looked at, you know, when, when BB came to mar a Lago a couple weeks ago, you know, everybody was like, oh, look at him. He’s just coming to, you know, he’s coming to make sure that Trump kisses his ass.
And I am of the complete opposite opinion. I think that BB sees the writing on the wall and with what’s coming with Trump. And he came to beg for mercy because he knows that there’s going to be hell to pay. And who had the top hand? Trump. Yeah, the hands, right. The top hand was Trump’s. Okay. I asked a funny question. Which Trump did BB meet in Mar a Lago? Which Trump. Okay, I don’t know. I don’t know. I know. Let me just say something really simple that I’ve learned, and I don’t wish to discuss this further.
When you see a Trump who’s very fresh, who doesn’t look like he’s aged much recently. It ain’t him. Okay. The real Trump is haggard, wrinkled, and showing tremendous wear from the last several years. I’d rather not talk about it. I’d rather talk about something that Trump has also said, and this has not been out there too much. It got out from a certain couple of press conferences and private conversations. Trump has announced that he wants to manage the debt default. He said, we need to manage this. We don’t want to get it out of control. So what is his plan? He said, I have no problem running up the deficit because we have to manage the default.
And if we make it more obvious that we’re going to have a default, it’ll be easier to get cooperation from all the principal parties. Whoa. Okay. If he wants to run up the deficit, gold will go up. If he can’t reduce the deficit from ukrainian spending shifted to Israel, the gold price will go up. If we get interest rate cuts, gold will go up. The last one is he wants to see the us dollar lower for a trade advantage. He wants to set up industry in the United States and export. You know, I’ll give you just a couple of examples.
He wants to have, like BMW plants where we make bmws in the United States and we export them to the other parts of the world. And, you know, those are non union jobs, by the way, people. Well, we kind of do that with some of them already. I know you want to expand that. You want to expand with what has been successful. Okay. There are other things he wants to bring back, like electronics and chip making and computer making and some telecom business. He wants that to be native, native grown, native, built well. And he wants to do that quickly, set up shop, do incentives, and, you know, have a lower dollar in order to have an export advantage.
Well, I got news for you, Donald. It’s not going to be that easy because all the competition in the currency world is in the forex system. Let me, can I ask me, may I ask a question? I may ask a question, because I don’t want to derail you, but I want to ask a question. Where does crypto fit into this? Because he has Trump. Trump, over the, over the course of the last three months, has become extraordinarily pro crypto on the likes of which nobody has seen, no one expected. All right, well, let this, I’ll fit this into my, my major point as it is now, trade payment is done primarily in the forex currencies.
So if you want a lower dollar, what you’re, what you’re really pushing for in Donald Trump’s room is that the us dollar index goes lower, and that means the 52% weight of the euro goes higher by half as much. And there’s nothing strong about the european economy. Now. They’ve attacked their farmers, they’ve got russian sanctions on not just energy like gas supply, it’s russian sanctions on metals and foodstuffs and all kinds of different things. So you don’t have economic strength in Europe. In order to sustain a higher euro, they cannot handle a higher euro period. Okay.
But on the other hand, you do have the BRICS growing, and they are now moving very close to full implementation of the unit, which is 40% gold, and it’s really an adaptation of the BRICS gold token. They decided not to do that with 100%. They decided to go to the unit, which is 40% gold and 30% each of the two countries involved. Each makes a choice for their currency. And that’s where crypto can come in. That’s where they might say, well, portion will be XRP, a portion will be bitcoin. I don’t. Honestly, Ron, I don’t believe bitcoin satisfies the Enbridge protocol.
Okay. Enbridge is the protocol that’s been tested and refined. It has some. Some little improvements made, enhancements as a result of usage, and it was all announced at the St. Petersburg Economic Forum in mid June. XRP complies with Enbridge. And to keep it simple for folks, the three major criteria for Enbridge are fast, cheap, and no political interference, like sanctions, like independent of politics. It’s all just. XRP satisfies that. And we just had news that Japan has authorized XRP to be used in every bank in Japan and fully implemented during 2025. All right, so I don’t believe bitcoin complies with Enbridge.
No, I don’t. I agree. But, you know, Donald Trump, I think, said something silly. Okay. I think he wants to make bitcoin a part to our reserve foundation. And it’s not going to be used for reserve forex reserves. You’re not going to see foreign countries use it much in foreign reserves. Maybe I’m wrong, but it’s not fast, it’s not cheap, and it’s widely used in money laundering. I think XRP is going to be the answer. Right. Well, it’s, you know, I was watching. Did you see the thing on? It was like Everest Snowden when he’s talking about the bitcoin thing.
I thought it was very interesting. He talked about. He’s like, what they’re doing right now is they’re basically, as bitcoin continues to conduct transactions, what they’re doing is they’re putting all of these. They’re basically taking this data and putting it in there. And what is a standard transaction and what deviates from a standard transaction so that they can isolate transactions that are more. Underworld. Suspicious underworld. Yeah. And see, and a lot of people think that crypto is what’s being used for a lot of this stuff. And I respectfully disagree that, you know, I’m not saying that it’s never used for this stuff, but cash is what is used for.
This is what is used for most of the underworld stuff in terms of, you know, drugs and sex trafficking and things like that, because cash is untraceable in the west. In the west? Yes, Ron. In the east. No. China is using bitcoin for trafficking. Ukraine using bitcoin for trafficking. Okay, I stand corrected. Well, no, it’s east versus west. In the west, the Colombians and Mexicans, they might use a little bit, but I think they’re cash. Cash dollar. Cash. Cash, cash. When you. When they captured Chapo about six or seven years ago, did they find bitcoin? No, they found hundred dollar bills.
Right. Okay. The Colombians deal almost exclusively with. With hundred dollar bills. And, you know, it’s getting so weird and standardized now that they’re actually doing accounting in. In the drug world. They’re doing accounting on weight of $100 pallets. What’s the weight? We don’t need to count that. What’s the weight? So it’s like, the value is. I’ll just make something up, but the value of that pallet is 22.65 million, plus or minus a deviation of something small. And they don’t care. They want four decimals. Okay, this is really, really getting weird and scientific. All right. The point I’m trying to make, though, is that we’re going to see a bunch of policies that will come from the Trump administration, and they’re going to be desperation policies.
It’s going to be we’re desperate to attract demand for our industry, which we don’t have. How stupid is that? We’re desperate to bring about a debt default and accelerate the process. How stupid is that? We’re desperate to lower interest rates, which would possibly mean nobody shows up at bond auctions because of low bond yield offering. How stupid is that? We’re trying to get a bond rally in the face of a debt default. How stupid is that? A bond rally. Let’s get lots of buyers, buyers for our impaired toxic paper. I’m telling you, there’s no way out, Ronnie.
There’s no way out for the bond default. There’s no way out for easily transitioning to an export economy. Okay? We have to model after the Japanese, and we don’t know how to do what the Japanese did. The Japanese did something remarkable over a 1015 year period. There was a guy named Richard Deming. He’s called the God of quality control in Japan, dismissed from american industry. And I have a book that one of his disciples wrote, and it’s called the Taguchi. Oh gosh, I think it’s the Taguchi experimental design book. And we did fractional factorial designs in marketing research in my department at digital equipment corpath, fractional factorial designs that have an expectation of orthogonality and independence among the components.
Okay, I’m talking shop. But that’s some of the really difficult, powerful stuff that deming brought to Japan. And we, as american industry, we reject it. And I got to tell you, Ron, I never really got good respect from three different jobs that I had in the United States. And it wasn’t for being a smart ass. It was from not being recognized for the value that I brought to the table. You probably brought too much value to the table. Well, I brought value that they didn’t comprehend. Okay, let me give you one, just real simple example. At Staples, we did a cross elasticity for boxed paper, and we had stores with no competition, stores with office max and office depot competition, and other stores where we had our own competition from other Staples stores.
We varied the price accordingly, and we brought about a 7% increase to the profit, what do you call it, the profit margin on a $450 million product. Simple boxes of paper. Okay. Now, we tried to explain that to the vice president, and she didn’t understand it. She said, well, it’s really good, Jim, but wasn’t it really luck? And I said, no. I said, it has to do with cross elasticity, a double log model for regression price against sales. And that went right over her head. I said, I know you didn’t understand that, but that’s okay. I do.
And that’s why we did it. And we were successful. And it was not luck. Right. And by the end of that conversation, Ron, I asked her, what makes you qualified to sit in that chair? That probably went over well. She said, this meeting is over. And I said, yeah, I guess it is. Sorry this wasn’t comprehended. Well, you haven’t respected the work, so we’ll be leaving now. I left that job within six months. I believe you did. And I gotta tell you, the next day, you gotta know something and background. My manager was also insulted by that vice president.
She called him an academic, an academic that is trying to fit in. And he in a staff meeting with twelve people. And I patted him on the back as we walked out. He said, patty, I got news for you. This academic built the site evaluation model that is responsible for the successful expansion fivefold of the company. And the other vice president looked at her and went like this. Yeah, well, you know, it’s interesting that you say that, and I’m not trying to belabor the point, but academics. Academics work in a petri dish. People who are out in the real world work in the real world.
And. And academics think that the petri dish is actually more accurate than real world examples. Well, you know, I stepped out of the academic world. I made an enemy at Carnegie Mellon of one of the professors, and he was a high ranking professor. I could tell more, but I don’t want to give his identity away because he’s no longer among the living. But he asked me a difficult question at my doctoral thesis defense. Jim, what are your further plans for research? How do you plan to extend the research from your doctoral thesis? Or what other ideas do you have that have spawned from your thesis? And I said, I don’t have any.
Sorry. I’m going industry. I’m going to get out of this environment and start using my knowledge in practical applications for the benefit of industry. And I saw my own thesis advisor go like this. Like where you go, Jim. Way to go. Good answer. So, you know, Ron, you can say that someone’s academic, but sometimes academics do a very good job at stepping over the line into the real world. And the most successful are statistics professors, engineering professors, and believe it or not, I learned that a couple law professors that my brother exposed me to, labor law professors, they went into negotiations for labor strikes and contract negotiations.
That’s getting out of the academia. Academia for law. Pure law. Getting out there in the real world, where you have people and emotions and families and hard feelings about. Okay, my. That was kind of what I was trying to say. The academics, they never leave academia, whereas the academics who have gone out into the real world and then bring that expertise back. No, run. Run. I’m telling you, there are people who. Who have 1ft in each pond. That’s what I’m saying. But the people who only have their feet in the academic. Oh, well, those are the worst of the academic, and they deserve the insult.
And those are probably people who couldn’t manage the real world, so they’re stuck. And with tenure. And, you know, I’ve known a few of them, but they don’t exist in the statistics world. Oh, I’m telling you, I had two professors who I liked, and they did not get tenure. And they moved on. And I was very upset at one of them. And he went to Syracuse, and he said, don’t worry, jim. I’ll be happy at Syracuse. I’ll be fine. And, you know, one reason I don’t want to go there, he was a good. I wrote a letter of recommendation during his tenure battle, and he lost.
And he was a good professor for me. In one course, it was nonparametric statistics, and I enjoyed the heck out of that one. But let me just say that to label a person who was successful in industry as an academic is one of the biggest insults a vice president can do, can make. And when that VP is wrong, usually that VP is shown the door. And that is exactly what happened to Patty. And I was happy to hear it. It took 18 months, and I gave her a couple of zingers on my way out the door.
It was called the exit interview. I spent half the time talking about Patty and what it absolute joke she was, as the vice president, you should get rid of her. Well, they got rid of her anyway. That’s my own personal hard feelings. But the point I was trying to make, and the theme I was making was that statisticians and experimental design and quality control experts in the United States are not highly rewarded or valued. And I’ve only known a couple who were very highly valued, and they were worked to death. They had no personal life. They had no family life.
They were on the road working all the time, because the consulting firms that hired them knew they had a superstar, and they worked them to death. And I had an interview with Arthur D. Little in Lexington, a big consulting firm. And I might have been considered for a job, but we just broke off, and it was getting to be, like, about 06:30 p.m. and it was dark in January. And the guy just said to me, jim, we don’t have a good fit here, do we? And I said, no. I wonder, though. I think I might be qualified for what you’re looking for, but I’m not a 60 hours a week guy with no personal life.
And he said, that’s pretty much what we’re looking for here. And I said, well, I wish you luck with that. You can grind somebody else to the bone, and it’s not going to be me. But I really enjoyed meeting you. And we talked shop, and we hit it off on all the technical points. I mean, I had a published PhD thesis. I had a really good record at digital with an engineering spec. I defended it. Ron. The United States lost Richard Deming to Japan, and that was a very big blow in the 1980s. Very big blow.
He’s considered a God in Japan, and he was responsible for Toyota turning their quality control all around and becoming top notch. I mean, I had a Toyota little pickup van. Not a van, what do you call it? Pickup truck. I had it for seven years. I didn’t have a single problem. No, the seven years. Fantastic. Okay. Anyway, I was actually looking at a Toyota truck the other day and shoot. Ten year old Toyota trucks are, like, freaking $8,000. It’s insane. They hold their value. Oh, my God. It’s insane. Let me tell you a quick story about Hyundai.
Hyundai is korean. Hyundai had a problem in the early 1990s. It was a quality control problem. They didn’t have the components, you know, like a water pump, the distributor, the axle, you know, just. Just lots. The drivetrain, just a lot of different things. And how did Hyundai of Korea solve their quality control problem? They actually merged for their parts supply with Toyota. Toyota makes supply parts for Hyundai. And Hyundai is not Honda. It’s not related to Honda. It’s not japanese. It’s korean. There are a lot of people think Hyundai japanese because they just don’t know shit from Shinola.
Okay, back to the Trump points. He wants a lower dollar. He wants to engineer a debt default. He wants to increase the deficit. He wants to manage the default. He wants to do all these things with lower interest rates. And I’m telling you, Ron, he’s going to have a hard time. But what he’s going to do with every single policy that he has in mind is going to lift gold. And once he gets the economy going, silver is going to launch way past $100. I think we’re eventually going to see something. I want to make, like, an important final point.
I’m running out of time. I got a. Okay. Central banks are doing something very slippery, and it’s not corrupt, and it’s not illegal, and it’s really quite smart, and it benefits the gold investors. What they’ve got is a project on the side, and they’re lying. They’re lying to the public. They say. They say things like this. We had x tons added to our gold official reserves in the last month. We added x. And the key question is, what did you add to your gold revaluation account? Well, we don’t talk about that. We added X to our gold official asset ledger item.
What did you add to the side? Well, we don’t talk about that. That’s not revealed. Okay. That’s the key to this problem for. It’s a problem if you’re trying to understand what’s going on with central banks on the gold issue. Okay. So what they’re doing is they’re buying a small amount of gold and they’re putting it on their balance sheet as gold asset. Okay? Asset, tier one asset. And they’re buying a shitload, a truckload, a boatload of gold. Much more. And they’re putting it, I was under the impression they’re putting it on their hidden second books.
But what they’re doing, and they might still be doing that, but I think a good portion of that they’re putting on their balance sheet and they’re calling it. This is from Andy Shekman, who I learned from in a big way every time I watch an Andy Sheckman, he’s absolutely brilliant. Miles Franklin. And I’m an affiliate of Miles Franklin, so mention my name if you’re buying some gold or silver from Miles Franklin. Andy Scheckman dissected this. They’ve got a debit item. Ron, get a load of this. They put the gold that they buy on the side that they don’t want to call an asset.
They call it a gold revaluation account item, and it’s a debit. Why is it a debit? Isn’t that an asset? Why is it a debit? Here’s why. Because they want it to offset the gold that they’re buying and telling you about. They don’t want you to know that they’re vastly increasing their balance sheet. So they’re putting a bunch of it in the gold revaluation account and it offsets their gold. Okay. You know, he had a joke. He said, well, it’s on their balance sheet. They want to balance it out. So the goal they have is net zero.
I, I have a question for you about, about gold. And, you know, you, a while back, you had talked about like, the gold shorts and the silver shorts, and they were just ultimately going to be wiped out. And then ultimately that was that. Like, there was not going to be really any penalty, but the people who had paper gold or paper silver were going to be solved. And then, but once that, once all those people were just basically, you know, resigned to their fate that it was going to send the price of gold and silver through the roof.
Well, I was talking about force majeure more than I was actual covering and short cover. We’re going to get a little bit of both. Bank of America, I don’t know what they’re going to do. I think they’re going to try to do a force majeure and get their asses relieved. I don’t know. Bank of America’s got a billion ounces short of silver. So you think they might have been behind silver going down $2, $3 the last week or two. All right, Ron, here’s the conclusion regarding this balance sheet accounting. It’s not really slight of hand as it much, as much as it is a very clever and devious method.
It’s right out in front of you. They’re saying that this gold that we don’t want to admit that we bought, we’re putting it on the debit side. It’s going to offset and reduce toward zero our gold on the balance sheet. So we really have a bunch of bonds and we have a bunch of other things. But the gold is netted out. As Andy said, it balanced out to zero. Okay, now here’s the beautiful part. They’re doing it with a plan, and the plan is not really mysterious. We’re going to wake up someday, Ron, and I believe this.
I believe it fervently. We’re going to wake up someday. And the central bankers will have declared that the price of gold is no longer 2500. It’s now 3800. Or it might be just 5000. Wow, 3800. We’re talking about discontinuous quantum jump up in value. And why will it be worth that in value? Because they would have made all the preparations. The force majeure, the covering, all the background work is being done now so that they can move from the gold revaluation debit to the gold asset asset credit side. And when that happens, you get a gigantic lift in their balance sheet value, and they’re no longer insolvent.
Now remember, I’ve told the story about three or four times now. Zellye Jelly, or Yali Zielstra, the Basel bis chairman in the 1980s, is on record saying in, I think, around 92 or 95, he said, the Rothschild central banks are gonna find themselves in an insolvent situation and a very nasty bind in the next couple of decades. And it’ll probably occur with an unexpected increase in interest rates. And the only way they’re going to get out of it is by buying a lot of gold, keeping it quiet, and suddenly doubling and tripling the gold price toward five, then $10,000 an ounce, and suddenly they’ll no longer be insolvent.
Okay? I’m telling you that Andy has uncovered from his own dissection and analysis that it’s by clever accounting and usage of the gold revaluation account, which is a debit. It’s the same as a debt. It’s ridiculous, but it’s what they’re doing, because they don’t want you to know what they’re doing. They don’t want you to know that they’re buying gold. They don’t want you to buy the gold because they want to buy the gold. They don’t want you to drive up the price of gold. They want them to buy the gold and hoard the gold so that you don’t have any gold when they revalue it to 10,000.
And you will say, damn it, I wish I had more gold. Well, I’m telling you to buy the gold. I agree. Ron, this is very clever. This is not illegal. It’s right in front of your nose. And people, you got to smarten up. We’re going through a debt default. We’ve had exponential growth during the baby Bush administration. We had a doubling of the debt during Obama, we doubled the debt during Trump and Biden, together we doubled the debt. We have. Okay, this is funny. It was about four or five months ago, we had it announced that every hundred days we’re increasing the debt by a trillion dollars.
We’ve reached $1.2 trillion in borrowing costs for the us government debt. I remember when it got over a trillion. It was last year, late last year. Well, it’s getting worse. Well, here’s the funny part. This is, you know, simple math for people who are not that bright and choose to swallow the lie. If we were at 100 days per trillion in debt, how many units of a hundred days are there in a year? Hmm. Three and a half, maybe. Yeah. Then why do they say that? If. If we’re at a trillion every hundred days, why are they saying we have a $2.2 trillion expected deficit? That’s a great question.
I don’t know the answer to that. Because it’s simple. Because they’re lying and they want you to swallow the lie. Well, okay, I guess I should have figured that one out. Okay, now ask a 6th grade kid how many units of a hundred are in a year and the kid might come back. I think it’s 3.65, uncle Jimmy. So 3.5 is a good estimate of what the deficit is going to be. And, you know, wait a minute. The government said it’s only two. That’s because they don’t count Ukraine aid. They don’t count that. Okay. You know, they use a clever term.
They say the budget deficit. They don’t say the us government deficit. They say the budget deficit. Ukraine payments and aid is not budget item. They’re one time deals, except they’re one time deals in sequence. So they’re really not one time deals. All right. We’ve got a debt default happening. We’re trying to lower the interest rates in the face of debt default. We’ve had probably $2 trillion in foreign sales of treasury bonds. And I heard a figure several months ago, foreigners are owning 6 trillion in treasury bonds. So it’s going to be a little bit lower now.
I think it’s a little bit over four now. Foreigners own four to 5 trillion in treasury bonds. The us government is obligated to pay them because we issued them. We cannot say, well, screw you. We’re not paying. We’re not buying. We’re not paying. We’re not buying. No, we issue them, we pay them back. I think we’re paying them back with a haircut, Ron. If you got, say, Norway or Thailand or Australia, and they say we got a $10 billion block of treasury bond, well, we’ll give you 7 billion. Name your currency. That’s how it’s working, right? We’re in debt default land, Ron.
This is not. Not a six week period. It’s gonna get. I think it’s gonna be a five year period. We’re in the third year of it. So, okay, we say, if we’re in a debt default. Let me ask this question. In a debt default, what does that look like from a social upheaval perspective in the United States? Price inflation. Okay. We’re seeing it, are we not? We are. Well, we’re seeing it now, but are you suggesting that it’s going to go even higher than it is now? Yeah, because we’re going to monetize the debt since we can’t sell it to anybody.
And I do believe that the Rob Kirby school of thought would be that some of the debt that we’re redeeming and some of the new debt is being bought by the exchange Stabilization Fund, which is a very dangerous topic and got Rob Kirby murdered. Okay. So I believe that we’re in the third stage of debt default. The first happened in late 2019, and suddenly in early 2020, we got the planned pandemic, which was as fake as Michael Lavon Robinson. As a woman in 2021, December, we got another debt default with refusal of treasury bonds at the ports.
And suddenly in early 22, we got a Ukraine war. And in the last year, we’re seeing a big erosion in the purchasing power of the dollar. And we’re seeing an increase in everything, both necessities and, well, you know, let me just say we’re seeing a big increase in a lot of different things, and most of them are necessities, and that includes insurance. And while we’re seeing that, we’re also seeing gold go up. So when you say we’re going to see a devaluation of the dollar, I want this to be my parting shot. The dollar is going to be devalued versus the super currency of gold.
When we get a debt default, we might possibly see the central banker, say, 5000 gold, we’re going to double it. We got a debt default. We got $0.70 given on the dollar for treasury bonds and to enemy nations, it’s only $0.35. Okay, I’m going to ask a question here, and again, I’m asking this genuinely because I don’t know, and I have an idea of what I think could happen. But the younger generation is, now that it’s coming into the world, they don’t necessarily understand the macroeconomics of gold, silver, or stuff like that, but they do understand that you’ve got the crypto markets, the digital assets and whatnot.
Those things are kind of geared more towards the younger generation. And I feel as though the older generation is rejecting the crypto, whereas the younger generation is embracing the crypto. And I think that’s one of the reasons why Trump is talking about that. But I believe that the crypto is going to have a monster play here in terms of the bringing us out of the financial chaos in a much more rapid pace. What’s your thought? I think the Gold foundation will provide us that opportunity to get out of the debt default. Japan is your lesson right now.
Japan is moving headlong quickly into a gold foundation. They went through a crisis. They’re not done with the crisis. Crypto is going to be tolerated and become very important. But we’ve got to get the digital dollar to go next to the digital ruble and the digital yuan and the digital iranian rial. Crypto is going to be important, Ron, but we’re going to get the BRICS moving that needle. It’s going to be the BRICS unit, 40% gold, 30% each of two currencies of their choice. It’s going to be on the blockchain ledger, Shanghai is going to be a leader, that Russia will be following their lead.
Crypto will be important for trade payment, I think in terms of the digital currencies and the XRP coin. Now I look at crypto as going to increase the velocity of money because right now in order for you to send money trans, you know, across. Well yeah, but not in the United States. Why wouldn’t it be? If we don’t adopt it, what bank is adopting it? Every bank blocks, almost every bank blocks in the United States. A big deposit into your crypto account, your coin exchange account. That doesn’t make any sense at all. That may be where we’re going and maybe where we need to go, but we’re not there yet.
But I think what you’re talking about, you’re talking about is at the, at the consumer level. I’m talking about, you know, XRP, I don’t believe of. XRP was designed for the consumer level. XRP for the bank level. Behind the scenes international trade payment. Right? Yeah, yeah. Okay, let me make a point about the young. I think the young understand a little bit about crypto, but I don’t think they understand too much about like smart contracts and you know, you know, various things like the ledger and mining. They understand. Well, you know, it’s pretty cool. I can invest in this and it goes up right now.
The other thing about young kids, I find they don’t know shit from shinol about economics, period. I find that they’re really good at understanding the supply and demand of video games. That’s very well said. Okay. Hey, there’s a discount. The video game. That place is going out of business and they got some things on sale over there. Let’s go, let’s go. I am not impressed with the intelligence and education of younger people, period. I find that instead of reading books and solving puzzles like I did, I solved more puzzles than I read books. I got interesting stories to tell you about my younger days.
My father offered me a summertime bonus of dollar 50. And this was in the late sixties, $50 bonus. Jim, if you read these 20 books. And I said, okay. And then what? He said, well I’ll ask you questions. I said, okay. So I read a book every day and a half. I was super speed reading, super, you know, treasure Island, Robert Louis Stevenson. I read it like in 4 hours and maybe three, maybe three. Well Jim, about this character, what can you tell me about him? I don’t know, but I read it. Next question. I don’t know, but I.
But I read it. Next book, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. I said, well, there was. There were Jim. There was Huck, there were Tom Sawyer. He said, ask me a couple questions about interaction of a certain event. I don’t know, but I read it. Dad, you didn’t say I had to retain it. You said I had to read it. Where’s my $50? And he said, jim, get out of here. Get out of here. I said, dad, my summer is for baseball, bicycle, basketball, carpentry. He said, all right, get out of here. And you know what? You know when all that stopped? It all stopped when I was a freshman in high school, 14 years old, and I won the math award out of 400 kids.
That’s impressive. Yeah, baby. That’s impressive. Yeah. And the sophomore year and the junior year. But I came in second place in my senior year. But it’s okay. My buddy Steve won, and he was. He was rock solid. He was deserving. Yeah. Speaking. Speaking of baseball, I didn’t know if you knew that the Pirates were in the Dodgers this weekend. Yeah. And they kind of messed up that rookie of the year prospect, Skeins. They brought him up, you know? Well, I don’t think they. I think they roughed up the relievers after him. No, he gave up all four runs.
The final score was four to one, and the only run that the Pirates got was in the 9th inning of a home run. But all four runs came. Gavin Lux hit a hit, RBI hit two. Two RBI doubles, and then, say, Oscar Hernandez had a home run. So all off of Skeens. So Skeens gave up all four runs. I saw some relievers get knocked around, but was that a doubleheader or. No, I think that was the night before. That was the night before. It was like, nine to four. I got to give credit where credit is due.
I watched the last two games, the semifinal and the final of men’s basketball, the Olympics. I got to give credit where credit is due. Lebron James, you won the MVP, and you earned it. You were fantastic. 39 years old, you were fantastic. I don’t like your private pronouncements. I don’t like your, you know, black lives matter nonsense. But you, at 39 years, you played a lot of minutes in those final games. You were on the court. You made plays. And there was one particular play. Oh, there were a couple. He made a three pointer to keep the lead going, I think, in the third quarter.
And then he had a drive when the lead went all the way down to three and then five, and he made a driving layup, went right through that Yambalana Yambo mama, whatever his name is. That french guy, seven foot six guy. And that seven foot six guy did not have a great game. He got stopped. And I was hoping that LeBron James got the MVP. Steph Curry was critical the last two games, but he was almost like a no show. The other games, did they beat the French in the gold? Yeah, they won the gold yesterday.
I didn’t know we were hit by ten plus or minus the whole game. And it was at the very end that Steph Curry made three different three pointers. And toward the end, LeBron James made a driving layup and just, just got everybody unified on the team. It was a lot of fun. And we were behind against Serbia. Serbia has a good team. They have a good team. We were down by as much as 17 against Serbia. Highlights about it. I was watching the third quarter, I was eating a meal, and I thought, oh, my God, I don’t think we’re going to win this game.
We better. And then I realized something, Ron. A very important factor for the men’s basketball. The French had a good team, but they didn’t have a really strong bench. And that means that after you have a good five hard minutes, you put in a couple of new players, you bring them in, you roll them in, then you roll them out, give them a little bit rest. And by the fourth quarter, we dominated. Why was that? Because we had a fantastic bench. We had a star studded bench. We had 14 players. And you can’t really say that any of them was weak.
And as a result, we won on depth on the bench. And I had another observation, and I’m not a racist, but there wasn’t a white guy on the NBA. I’m sorry. There wasn’t a white guy on our Olympic basketball team. Not a single one. I was looking. Is there maybe one? No. Nope. But that’s okay. There’s some fair skinned black guys. But, yeah, there was no. I gotta say, my. My belief in sports let the best players on the field. You know, somebody made a really good point about that the other day. I was watching, you know, the only.
The only really sports thing that I pay attention to is the Dodgers. And I was listening to a guy, and he said, you know, he’s like, I want in for the Dodgers. I want them to feel the best team possible that has the. Has the chance for them to win the World Series, and I don’t. It’s all about merit, who plays the best and who earns it. And he said, I wish that they would employ that across the world in terms of. Oh, like in politics, like in the head of secret service business and everything. Put everybody there who deserves to be there.
Not people who were just. Yes, people. So I thought that was. Well, not people who fit a certain quota, like Kamala Harris. Not even black. Right. Hey, I gotta. I gotta say something that, regarding Ohtani, this kid. This kid’s good. This kid’s really good. I wish he would pitch a little bit, but I think he. He’s coming. He had. He had. He had Tommy John. This is his. Tommy John sees season of recovery. Okay. I didn’t know he had Tommy John. I knew he had a big elbow problem. No, he’s telling me I’ve got a colleague of sorts.
I hesitate to call him a colleague because we had a falling out. And he said to me about, what, three months ago, he said, ohtani, with all this gambling issue, he’s going to be packing and heading back to Japan. Nope, I don’t think so. And, you know, let me just say Otani would do very well to take some english language lessons. English. He speaks English. He just doesn’t speak English well enough to get in front of the. I’ve never heard him in front of a camera speaking English. He doesn’t do it in front of the media, but he does it in front of his teammates.
Well, he should do it in front of the media with a very gentle interviewer. It would go a long way toward enhancing his reputation, because I think he’s a major superstar. I agree. He hits opposite field, long home runs. The last guy I saw to do that was Willie Stargill of the Pirates, and this is not a common thing. Another thing I’d like to add about baseball, I’d really like to see Trout. What’s his first name? I can’t think of Trout’s first name on the LA Angelse. Mike Trout. Mike Trout. This guy has had some of the worst health problems with knee injuries and back problems and ankles, and you name it.
And it seems like every year he’s got something keeping him out for the majority of the year, he’s coming back. I wish him good health because he’s a good, good superstar. And he’s not just offense. He’s got defense. And sometimes he gets injured by doing a diving catch and whoops, he’s out. Okay. I’m a baseball fan. I’m a football fan. We’re starting up football, and I’ve never seen so many rising star quarterbacks entering the NFL, as I have this year, this is a year of tremendous crop, as they call it, of quarterbacks. And I’d like to see my Ohio State guy, Justin Fields, do well with the Steelers.
But we’ll see. We’ll see. He’s got, he’s got to get some good coaching. I want to, I want to make one final statement before you go. You know, last time you and I did a show, I talked about a guy that I signed up to do some crypto stuff with and I was, I had made some trades and I was up pretty big and, you know, I, I did really, I’ve done fairly well with him. It’s a complete departure from what I had done. I intended on editing that out, but I didn’t. And I got inundated with people who wanted to know who I was using.
So I have put a comment in the thing. I answered a whole bunch of emails and I don’t know if I got to everybody. So I’m just making a statement that I put the link to his information in a comment. So if you guys want that information, you. There it is. I highly recommend him. He is not, I will say that he is not an XRP guy. He does not like XRP at all. I disagree with him on that. He’s a young, he’s a young kid. But the reason that I signed up with him was more because I wanted to get into some of the meme and the digit plays because there’s a higher probability that you can make money faster.
It’s a lot more risky, but I have a little bit more tolerance for risk. So that was kind of why I signed up with him, but I’m not 100%. I still, he’s an advocate of completely selling all your XRP and I’m not. So that’s where we disagree. But I have done fairly well with him and some of the, a lot of the plays that I’ve made. So if you guys have any interest in wanting to know who he is, I just go down into the comment section and the one that I posted in there, there’s a link to his thing.
Well, I wish you luck with that. I got to say that XRP is going to be, it’s going to be a quantum jumper. I agree. You talk about disjointed jumps in silver and gold price and I believe that we’re going to see a monster disjointed price jump in the price of XRP. It could be something like it goes from 50, something like $3 and then a few weeks later to twelve. Right? Something. Yeah, exactly. Something like that. I’m just throwing numbers out, but that kind of ratio where suddenly. Wow, I got a hundred thousand dollar account on just my XRP.
And. And I wouldn’t sell it. I think it’s going to go into triple figures. $100. I think it may go a lot higher than that, but we’re going to see a lot of moves. And just regarding XRP, Japan made an announcement. Ron, I handed you a item on that. Yeah. They announced that in 2025, every major, every japanese bank will be involved with XRP. And I think it’ll be on trade payment, like for Toyota, Nissan, Honda, I. What you got, icon? No, shoot. Toshiba, Nikon, Nikon, cameras, all their major exports. I think they’re going to be using XRP at a high level.
All right, well, thanks for having me on, Ron. I gotta go. I gotta prepare for something very soon. I appreciate your time. And that was. I just had r1. Quick question for you that somebody asked and I wanna see. Where is it? Here, let me find it. Is the bank contract to buy or build a home binding and based on amount of loan and income, if country or if county assessors raise cost of home. Is this not a breach of contract? I’d have to look at all the different detail. That’s an impossible question to answer. Usually with banks, they steer everything in their favor.
So get an independent attorney, not a bank attorney, to look at that. But there are a lot of moving parts, and when there are moving parts, you got to protect yourself. Agreed. Okay. All right, Jimbo. Hey. Thank you for your time, everybody. Go get. Go. Sign up for the golden hyphen. Go to Golden Hyphen, jackass, and sign up for the newsletter. It is fantastic. Jimba does one. He does every month. Not without. This is what are you in like. But almost through 20th year now I’m in my 21st year. August will be month issue number 245.
That’s a lot. 240, by the way, for people math challenge. 240 is 20 years. That’s a lot. It’s a lot of years. And I’ve lost a lot of teeth. I’ve lost a lot of hair. And someone just wrote me an email the other day and said, jim, you’re looking younger, fresher, and more energetic. I don’t know what’s up. And I said, well, well, I’m not missing meals as much as I used to. That’s one thing. I went through a seven, eight month period, Ron, maybe more, where I forgot to eat lunch. And it affected my energy level.
I ate a good dinner, but I forgot. I just didn’t even think about it. I’m busy. I’m doing interviews, doing consult calls. I’m answering emails, and I’m doing errands, and I’m helping with, you know, managing some of the disasters here that are in sequence that I hope and pray. Stop. I have a simple question for you, actually. You know, a buddy of mine moved to Columbia from the United States, and he said that down in Colombia that the poor people eat real food and the rich people are the ones that eat the processed food. Is that the same way it is in.
Down there where you are? Yeah. It’s a latino paradox that when people move upward in the middle class, they think, now I can afford McDonald’s rather than rice and beans and good vegetables and nice fruit like Guanabana papaya, which is the complete opposite of the United States, because in the United States, you have to be rich to afford good food, and all the poor people are the ones that are eating all the. And there’s another equally confounding paradox. The wealthier people, the upper middle class, they believe the news. They believe their managers, they believe the health officials, and they took the vax something like three times more often than the poor.
Yeah. What they’ve done here is they’ve really done a big clean out of many of the upper class. It’s tragic. I have stories. It’s amazing. The poorer they are, the more they distrust the government and the news. The wealthier they are, the more they are part of it all. I agree with that. Okay, got to go. I’m running out of time. Got to go. Thanks for having me on. Sign up for the newsletter. Sign up for consult. I’m available. Talk to you soon. Bye now, Ron. Have a great day, guys. Thank you.
