A new rule goes live in July — and the banks are quietly cashing in (Ad)

A little-known regulation quietly goes into effect this July. And it's already being exploited by Wall Street and the Big Banks… It gives them the green light to treat a certain tangible asset as equivalent to cold, hard cash. Not stocks. Not real estate. And definitely not the U.S. dollar. We're talking about something they don't want you to notice — because the fewer people who act on this, the better it is for them.

I was wrong about Trump (Ad)

I made a mistake. A mistake I feel very foolish about. After speaking with Donald Trump and some of his advisors, I believed him. I believed the promise that he would finally confront the single most dangerous threat to American life. That he would fix the ticking time bomb I’ve been warning about for 15 years. But I was wrong.

Let me show you exactly what we’re doing to prepare.
