Trump is the Tourniquet, Americans are the Cure

[00:00:01] Hey, where are you going? I gotta get home. America, it's time to come home. It's time to come home! By bringing common sense back into the nonsense. Welcome to Common Sense Coalition Talk Radio, where America comes home. Down this dirt road, you're gonna find determination and grit, opinions that matter, and a big ol' helping of good discernment.

[00:00:28] And now, the woman that wishes the D.C. occupiers would stop making her use her mom voice. Do not make me come down there. Here's your host, and the voice of common sense, Beth Ann. And I welcome you today to CSC Talk Radio. It is my honor, my privilege, and my pleasure to be here with you today. Today, we're gonna go straight to the Lord in prayer. We are the two today, so Melody will be with me here in just a few minutes, as soon as I get done doing all my jabberwocky.

[00:00:57] Dumb prayers, not jabberwocky. Let's go to the Lord. For such a time as this, most gracious Heavenly Father, we come before you. Father, it is my prayer that we are a humble people and a repentant people. I fear we are not. But lead us in that direction, Father. Put a burden upon us. Break us so that we can be whole.

[00:01:27] That we can be one with you. So, Father, I pray for this nation. We are in a transition period, but we know, Father, that there is no man on earth that can heal what's going on in this nation. Only you can.

[00:01:49] And we also know that your children, me, and others who believe in you, need to take seriously the lost. And that's hard to do. But, Father, may we go forth with love like you have taught us.

[00:02:18] May we go forth with wisdom that you will grant us. May we go forth with wisdom that you will grant us, Father. Let the Holy Spirit wash over us, Father. I pray for your continued protection over President Trump and his family and his administration. And this country, Father. For we are still in a very high risk of violence and an attack. May we be alert and aware.

[00:02:49] May we do what we can individually in our homes. And may we be willing to protect others as well. Father, I thank you for Melody. I pray your protection over her. Father, I pray that you will keep her safe and healthy. And with her business, Father, may it be prosperous.

[00:03:20] For such a time as this, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen. So it came to me this morning that, you know, we're all Trump this, Trump that. Trump is just the tourniquet. Whether we like all the things that he's doing. You know how I feel about executive orders. But we seem to be caught in this revolving door with the executive orders. But Trump is just the tourniquet.

[00:03:48] He's shutting off the valve in different places. But it is really up to we the people. We must be the cure for what ails America. Liberty is always in the hands of the people. What is it that you want, America? It was obvious to a point that Americans rejected their woke left and their ideas and their craziness. But will you reject socialism? It's awesome.

[00:04:19] Cheering Doge on to eliminate departments is a good thing, in my opinion. But is that truly what you want, America? Just like the grievance in the Declaration of Independence. It was the tenth grievance. These agencies have done exactly what the king was doing. He has erected a multitude of new officers and sent hither swarms of officers to harass our people and eat out their substance.

[00:04:49] We have lived that quote. We have lived the quote that is attributed to George Washington. The marvel of all history is the patience with which men and women submit to burdens unnecessarily laid upon them by their government. So we have chosen these erected multitude of new offices. That is socialism here in America.

[00:05:16] And then we have Bishop Marion. And we wondered, what the heck is she doing? That's not a prayer. What was wrong? She was wrong in so many ways. And by the way, I have a question, just to ponder. Why do lesbians worry about abortion? They don't need to worry about abortion. She is a false teacher.

[00:05:44] We talked about that yesterday or the day before. She is a false teacher. There's no doubt about it. And I really liked what the scripture said about the itching ears. For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. In other words, they're going to reject the Lord's truth. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.

[00:06:11] And they will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. Do we, America, have itching ears when it comes to liberty and freedom? And when it comes to God, when it comes to the truth? Back to the cure. Liberty is always in the hands of the people. But first, it must be a longing and a lust within their hearts.

[00:06:35] I do not believe it's an exaggeration to say we have been living under absolute despotism. Perhaps even worse than our founding fathers under a tyrannical king. We have a tyrannical oligarchy. Boy, they didn't like it when Biden used that word the other day. Oh, he should have said that. A lesion of demons fighting for democracy and against we the people or republic.

[00:07:03] We did not keep it, did we? Will we restore it? Do we even want to restore it? Do we understand it, a constitutional republic, is the only form of government that protects individual rights, individual liberty? But it can only do so if the public, consent of the governed, assume their rightful place, remove the corruption, restore the lost principles, as Thomas Jefferson said.

[00:07:34] And it's only then that we can bring America home. Trump is just a tourniquet. He's only going to be there for four years. It's up to the people who we elect. But it matters from the dog catcher on up. And with that, I'm bringing on Melody Sederstrom. Melody, how are you doing today? I'm doing just great. I can't hear you very well, so... Uh-oh. I'll try and crank it up a bit. We'll try and crank it up some for you.

[00:08:04] Well, I was talking about Trump being a tourniquet and that he's not going to cure everything. He's putting a stop to some things. We can debate whether we like them or not, whether they're constitutional or not. Of course, I don't believe in executive orders, but we do seem to be trapped in this revolving door of executive orders. One president comes in and does this. The other president comes in and erases that and does something else.

[00:08:32] And we're just in a mess in that direction. Because that's not... I just want to show you how worthless our Congress is. I agree 100%. You go, girl. You go, they are. Mm-hmm. And didn't you just like their... And I'm not making excuses up for Hegseth. I'm not.

[00:08:51] But how they go after him for his adulterous ways, his promiscuity, when they have a slush fund sitting there to cover their behinds when they do something. And you know what? And I do like your analogy of administration as being a tourniquet, because you're absolutely correct.

[00:09:18] It stops the bleeding in some areas, and sometimes it can squirt out other places and so forth. But that's exactly... And I think what concerns me the most is... And you're right. How does this all support our republic? Right. And us as people. I hear too many people... It's AI. Yes. Yes. My son kind of got on to me that yesterday.

[00:09:46] My oldest son, he called, and I said, you know, they said AI is going to cure cancer. I said, that would be pretty cool. And he goes, Mom, you have a little more optimism than I do? Anyway, we're headed into a break. You're listening to CSC Talk Radio. We'll be right back.

[00:09:59] The American Crisis Continues.

[00:10:35] The reviews are in. This is a book worth reading. A book that lays out both the fundamental issues and offers a solution. The American Crisis Continues informed me about the battle between good and evil. It inspired me to get involved in the author's quest to bring America home to God, family, and country. At a time in history when America is being attacked from within by those who have a secular socialist view of America,

[00:11:01] this book quenched my thirst for a perspective of the America I know and love. Learn about America's founding principles. How do the grievances in 1776 compare to us today? Knowledge is the key defense against the vicious enemy, tyranny. The American Crisis Continues. Order your copy today, available on Amazon, e-book, paper, or hardback.

[00:11:25] Printed copies available at csetalkradio.com or call 573-796-2166. Scripture warns us that there will be a day of judgment for our lives. Our works will be exposed by fire, which will reveal the foundation of our building. Figuratively speaking, have we been building with wood, hay, and stubble, which are perishable? Or have we been using gold, silver, and precious stones, which are permanent? In this life, there will be a day of judgment for our failing economic system.

[00:11:55] When the economy collapses, will your assets be in paper, which will burn? Or will you have a permanent foundation of gold and silver securing your assets? Fiat dollars are IOUs from the government. But gold and silver are the tangible assets that protect your wealth. Owning gold and silver is the permanent solution to a permanent problem in our economy. Fiat dollars and debt. Call Melody Sederstrom at Discount Gold and Silver Trading. 1-800-375-4188.

[00:13:46] We're watching everything that's taking place, and we can't watch it all, that's for sure. We can't watch it all. And it is Trump releasing some things, you know, with his pardons with the J6ers, which I agree with myself. And we're finding out as they come out that these people have been terrible. And we knew of some, but they've been terribly abused in this prison system.

[00:14:13] And I remember a day when we kind of made fun when the prisoners were supposed to have pork chops instead of bologna and that kind of thing. But they should not be beaten, and they should not be kept in damp, dirty cells. And that's what we're finding out.

[00:14:33] And it's, I mean, in that one in Florida, no, I'm sorry, not Florida, Georgia, that prison, people die in it, and they don't even get the bodies for a while. Well, that's upsetting to me. Whether it's a J6er or someone else who deserves to be in prison, they still deserve to be treated humane. I thought that's who we were in the United States of America, but apparently I was mistaken.

[00:15:00] Have you seen some of these things that are coming out? And then, one more little dig here. Yesterday, when they're letting them out there, and I think it was in front of Gulag, the prison, the mayor there in D.C. told the traffic cop to go down there and give them all traffic tickets, to give them parking tickets, just to add a little insult because she was mad that Trump was letting them out.

[00:15:28] Anyway, I didn't know our prison system was so bad. Well, you know, it's interesting. I mean, they did privatize a lot of those prisons and so forth. Oh, okay. That's what did it. You know, I mean, when I lived in Arizona, you had the one sheriff out there, you know, that put them in pink underwear and fed them bologna sandwiches. And I didn't have a problem with that. Oh, he did a good job. You know, if you do the crime, you do the time.

[00:15:52] And I think sometimes our – and I'm not referencing anyone in particular, any group or anything like that, but, you know, I mean, that does – it should be some sort of a deterrence for crime. Yes, absolutely. But now we always talk about the prisons that, you know, they have cable and they have jobs. I remember where they would, you know, be call centers and, you know.

[00:16:22] Gymnasiums. I do believe they should be out there picking up trash on the highways. I do believe they, you know, should be doing a lot of our civil work and so forth, you know, the lighter crimes. And so – I got you. I think the thing is our systems. You hear about, you know, the ones that the prisoners get all – you know, they're out there lifting weights and all this kind of stuff and so forth. But you don't hear the dirty side of it either. Right.

[00:16:51] And I know – I have been in some of the prisons here in Missouri when I was with – very active in a church group. And we went and participated on Sundays and did Sunday services for them. And you walk in and they're in a gymnasium and they're playing basketball or something, you know, and they're treated pretty well there. But – and that's – and the church farm, I don't even know if it still exists here in Missouri. We have a church farm down on 179.

[00:17:19] And you did used to see them out there cleaning up the roadways on 179. They'd be picking up trash or cutting out some of the tall stall stuff that kept you from seeing around the corners and stuff. But I haven't – of course, I don't live there anymore. I live in California instead of Jamestown, so I don't take 179 back and forth to Jefferson City. But, yeah, we made fun of all the soft stuff they have in prison.

[00:17:48] And I do think it should be tough. Orpeo did a lot of things like that, but he didn't beat them. No. He didn't beat them. No, he did not. He still fed them. They were still kept in, you know, decent physical shape. But what's gone on with these J6ers is – it's an eye-opener if that's the way they're treating people in prison in the United States. Right.

[00:18:13] And so it's – see, pardon, period. There's never any guidelines. Mm-hmm. You know, and I think that's a lot with a lot of the – some programs, various ones out there. There's never any guidelines. There's nothing that's like, okay, you want to have pardons, but, you know, if you're in front of a – and I get the corrupt system. You know, I understand all that.

[00:18:40] And I know there's a lot of people that go to jail that are innocent. I get that. But when it comes to – there's no guidelines, you know. Well, they're supposed to – What is the criteria to qualify? There should be qualifications. There have been, and they're supposed to apply for them like X amount of time before they get it so that you have time to review it all. But what Biden did – and we knew Trump was going to let the J6ers out. But it –

[00:19:09] But there's still guidelines and so forth. So you just – you know, two – and I'm a firm believer two wrongs don't make it right. Mm-hmm. Mama used to say that. It's – I don't know. It's just something that's done. It's good, you know. And going forward, change the things to make it a little more, you know, to where they're – Less political and more reasonable?

[00:19:37] Well, not reasonable, but, you know, some guidelines, some – you know, did you serve – of your sentence, did you serve, you know, 2% of the time? Or did you serve 75% of your time? Did you – you know, just something. Well, and how did you serve? What kind of behavior? Instead of a blanket. Yeah. And the behavior. Yeah. You know. Exactly. I mean, there's a lot of things that you could be, you know, taking into consideration.

[00:20:04] And, hey, if you don't get your paperwork in time, you don't qualify. I mean, it's – we've just become so – Political. They were political. Yes. That's what they were. Absolutely. Absolutely. Both sides. Yes. Yes. And – And that's a shame for the people. You know, General Flynn, Trump had pardoned him before, but General Flynn refused the pardon. He said, I'm not guilty. I'm not going to admit that I'm guilty.

[00:20:34] So he refused the pardon. We didn't see that happening on all the preemptive pardons with – and that wasn't preemptive. No, exactly. I think preemptive pardons should be outlawed. That's just my opinion. I agree with you. Why should they be – I don't think there should be immunity for presidents either. I don't. That throws everything out the window for anybody, either side.

[00:21:04] So that's just my personal opinion. Well, and it's important. It's important. I don't think complete immunity should be there, but I do think they need to have a little bit of – Nope. You know, you can't have every little thing the president does, somebody upsets about it, and, you know, they want to go after him and sue him. You can't have all that going on all the time. Why not? A judge is supposed to throw it out if it's a useless and frivolous lawsuit, you know? That's true. So –

[00:21:34] But don't you think we're running this country on lawsuits and executive orders? Is that the way we're supposed to be run?

[00:22:07] That's true. Some of them weren't even in the Capitol. I know. I think they should be able to do a civil lawsuit against somebody like Liz Cheney or Nancy Pelosi or Adam Schiff. I think they ought to be able to go after him. But I don't think that the United States people should have to pay for the congressmen that are going to have to pay. I think they should pay.

[00:22:36] That's just my opinion. But I think people need to be held accountable. And we're not holding them accountable with all these preemptive pardons. What about the judges that some of these J6ers have been in prison and never had a trial? Never. In four years, haven't had a trial. And that's why I think if you're going to pardon that they're – you know, hey, set up a thing. You know, they say how bad and so forth.

[00:23:06] Set up a committee. And you're right. Hold them accountable. Absolutely. But no committee will ever be created. No one will ever be held accountable. Right. And going back to the accountability, that's up to we the people. Trump's just a tourniquet. We've got to stop electing these bozos. We're the ones who need to hold them accountable. Anyway. In everything they do. Anyway, you're listening to CSE Talk Radio.

[00:23:34] This is Beth Ann with Melody Sederstrom of Discount Gold and Silver Trading. She's the sponsor of the show. We call ourselves the two when we're on together. And we're a lot friendlier than those other girls. We'll be right back.

[00:23:45] Thank you.

[00:24:50] We'll be right back.

[00:25:29] We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back.

[00:26:00] Let them know Beth Ann sent you.

[00:28:00] With a membership to the Cavalry Group, you'll never want to be right back. But her phone number is 1-800-310-4188. That's 1-800-375-4188.

[00:28:29] You can visit her website, dgscoins.com, dgscoins.com. One more thing I wanted to mention, and then I think we really ought to talk about our economy and what's going to happen or not going to happen, which is always we don't know. But I remember, Melody, when I worked for Derry Brownfield, seems like 100 years ago, he was constantly distrusting and ripping in to the agency called FEMA.

[00:29:00] And I've heard others mention FEMA. And I know that FEMA has not done well with North Carolina. And Trump was ripping into them. And I could not find the article. Rudy was telling me he read or heard this morning that Trump had taken from one pot that was set aside, I don't know how many millions or billions of dollars it was,

[00:29:29] set aside for helping the illegal aliens. And he moved it over to be used for North Carolina because those people are still in a bad way. Some of them are still living in tents or shanties or shacks that they've put together because their homes are gone. And I read last week, I don't know if that was before I had you on two weeks ago or not,

[00:29:54] but they were still going to have to pay their property tax even though they had no property left. But I don't know what your feelings are, FEMA, but it's another department of alphabet, alphabet department, that the federal government politically uses. So Trump's supposed to go to North Carolina tomorrow, and I think California as well where the fires have been. And hopefully we can get some relief for these people.

[00:30:24] But a lot of people are upset with California. Why should we help them? Because they keep electing their idiot governor, and then he's the reason that it's burning down. And they still have fires going. So I don't know what your feelings are about FEMA, but I don't feel real well about it. Well, no, I mean, I'm not in that position where I need help to where I had. I mean, I'm certainly not a fan of any of these large government departments. Departments.

[00:30:53] Because, again, they're managed so poorly. And we have a government that we are in debt, and we have debt too great to be paid. It's that simple. And so we really don't have the funds in an order. It's mismanagement on all levels. And it really is, yes, when you have a governor that's supposed to lead that state and allows this to happen, there's still a lot of them.

[00:31:19] It's just what do you do? How do you fix it? I'm going to view that these things can't be fixed until we hit rock bottom. And, you know, I don't think we're going to be that far away from rock bottom. But, of course, a lot of people have been saying that for a lot of years. But we continue to see the decline. And a tourniquet is not going to fix anything. Well, you can only keep a tourniquet on so long. It's a different way.

[00:31:48] It's a different Band-Aid that we're putting on. You know, it might be a little bit of a stronger Band-Aid than the ones that have been used before. But it's still a Band-Aid. I mean, and I get it. You know, again, as I mentioned, you throw things and you put it on, you know, throw things at a wall, see what sticks, half the stuff will stick. If you're asking for a trillion dollars, maybe you're only going to get $500 billion or whatever. I think the fires in California, that could be the first domino.

[00:32:18] Because when you really think about the bailouts that are coming for California, and I'm not talking about the people in FEMA. I'm talking about the insurance companies. Yes. And all of these other businesses. I mean, I can't even imagine. I mean, all of the infrastructure. It's just gone.

[00:32:47] California used to be, I don't know if it still is, the fifth largest economy in the world, supposedly. I know where things are going and what can be done. There's a statement that President Trump says he demands that interest rates drop immediately. Well, you know, we've seen interest. The Fed fund, they've been lowering rates.

[00:33:17] But look at the 10-year yield. You've got mortgage rates that are still 7% or close thereof, if not over. That is destroying the home market. I mean, there's just so many little things. You just can't. I don't understand where we're headed. The Saudis are coming in. You're having all this outside investment coming into this country. Is that good? I don't know. If we could all get along, it might be good.

[00:33:46] But we can't all get along. It's just not good. We can't seem to get along. Outside investment is okay. But again, there's no control. There's no accountability. It's just an open market. I don't believe in AI. Well, and if it was equal. And I don't believe laying the infrastructure for AI in this country is going to be a good thing. That's just my personal opinion. And it's not that I just don't understand it.

[00:34:14] I mean, I look to, you know, are they going to come in and replace our electrical grid? So these data centers, instead of drawing off the grid, are they going to come in and replace the grid for us? And how much of the taxpayers are going to be paying for it? But that's, you know, what are we subsidizing? Right. Right.

[00:34:43] And, yeah. And, of course, we've been subsidizing the green movement, which was a phony movement. But it goes back to what you always say. And even Trump says it. And I don't agree with everything that he does. So don't get me wrong about this. But we've got to use common sense. Common sense. And we haven't used common sense in our government with the Congress or anybody else, all these little departments. They're all just doing what suits them best.

[00:35:12] And they're not looking at the big picture on what is best for America. But common sense is gold and silver. And we see it every night on TV. There's all kinds of companies selling gold and silver. But I'm going to tell you right now, all my listeners, Melody is the one to use. Not the others. And I'm not going to name names. They've got the big celebrities. Melody has me. They have the big celebrities.

[00:35:40] But I'm going to tell you right now, if you want somebody that's honest, using common sense, and going to be truthful with you, then you need to call Melody. And you need to have gold and silver to back things up. You're not going to be out anything because when you buy it, you've got it. And it's not going to lose. I know it goes up and down as far as the dollar is concerned, but it does not lose its value. And with that, I'll turn it over to you. Then we have another segment coming in later.

[00:36:10] Well, you know what? It's just I don't know where things are headed. All I go back is to the basics. None of us do. We've got debt too great to be paid. I don't care how much the doge comes in. And one minute they're cutting $2 trillion. Now it's down to $1 trillion. They're not even going to do that. Where it goes out one window, it's going to come in another. It's just going to be an even swap. Because if you start pulling away too much, yeah, the system will collapse. Is that what they want? Maybe. I don't know.

[00:36:40] But that's what's going to happen. Again, so many of these things that are – the markets aren't prepared. So what? So oil turns lower. Or, you know, if everything else is collapsing, that doesn't really matter. Oil can turn lower. And look what happens when it's too low. And lumber's going to go up because of what happened in California. Lumber is going to skyrocket. Lumber is going to skyrocket. Yeah, it is.

[00:37:10] So are the nails and the screws and all that. That's sheetrock. It's all going to go sky high. But gold and silver, let's talk common sense. I'm against Bitcoin, I know. Trump used to be against it. Now he's for it. I don't understand that. They made billions of dollars. And that is wrong. To me, that's inside trading. And it used to be a big bad thing. Now it's accepted. Yeah, I don't accept it.

[00:37:39] Anyway, I don't agree with that. I agree with gold and silver. Let's go. We're going into a break. You're listening to CSE Talk Radio. This is Beth Ann with Melody Sederstrom of Discount Gold and Silver Trading. Common sense, my friends. Common sense. And we'll be right back. Have you heard about vine-to-bar chocolate?

[00:42:04] And we have returned. You're listening to CSC Talk Radio. This is Bethann. You know, Melody, you're absolutely right, because if they, and I don't see it happening, we've had this promise many times, but we'll see, but if they close the Department of Education, all the money for the Department of Education is going to get distributed somewhere else. It's not going to go back into the general fund like the American people want to pay off our debt. That's not going to happen. And so we know that and recognize that. Now, something funny,

[00:42:34] when we were in a commercial break, Rudy had read that, of course, Trump is, he's not in Davos, he's at the White House, but he's the people of Davos. And, of course, he has officially taken us out of that Paris Accord, once again. So Bloomberg says he's going to pick up the slack and he's going to pay the part that the United States is supposed to be paying. And I'm thinking, what do they do with all this money over there they keep getting? What do they do with that money? I believe he did it before

[00:43:03] when he was pulled out of there. Oh, did he do it before? Okay. People always bring out Soros, Soros, Soros, but Bloomberg, he's a quiet guy. It's the quiet millionaires or billionaires that you don't hear about. Those are the dangerous ones. Bloomberg's been funneling money into our local elections for years and years and years and years. Changing the district attorneys and so forth.

[00:43:30] But nobody ever talks bad about him. Everybody just focuses on Soros. And so that's what's wrong with these billionaires. The ones that are out in the light, they're just, I mean, they can still be bad, but they're still distractions. And that's how they get through so many things. And you're absolutely right. It's just... They're not investing in something that they're not making money on. Right. Bloomberg's making money.

[00:44:00] Or he wouldn't be investing. The question is, you know, the climate accord, I thought those were governments. It is. He is. He's paying, but he's going to pay what the United States should have been paying. So he doesn't want them to suffer any... So how did that work? I didn't know it was an open, you know, charity where people could donate money to it. I don't know. I thought it was government money. So how does his money... You...

[00:44:30] You see where I'm going with that? I understand. I understand. I'm questioning it, too. It's like... Hmm. So how does that tie, you know, what... The next election, when the next Democrat that gets in, how does that... I don't know. Oh, that's another executive order to run the country, you know. Another... Well, we're going to do this. We're going to do that. And then the next one will come in and say, no, we're not. But, you know,

[00:44:59] we never make any progress. It's like we're running on a treadmill. We're not getting anywhere. We're not getting anywhere. But the treadmill's wearing out. Treadwell's... And I started to say earlier, you can only keep... I took enough... When I was at Girl Scout, that was before the Girl Scouts went crazy, we had... You know, I got a badge for health, you know, on first aid. You can only keep a tourniquet on so long before the limb is going to die. So you can't

[00:45:28] keep the tourniquet on. It's going to... Anyway, that was my... Well, we can enjoy it while we can and we can prepare while we can. And, I mean, and again, stick to the basics because that's where the truth lies are the basics. And the basic is we got debt too great to be paid. We have people that are way upside down in their homes. We drop interest rates again. Inflation's not going... All of these problems are not fixable

[00:45:57] and those are the... Those are the basics. Food, the cost of food is basic. How do those prices come down? You cut off... You cut off... We get all of our food. A lot of our... Not all of it, but a lot of our food is imported. Yes, it is. So what happens when you cut those ties?

[00:46:25] Is there something to replace it? No. So the problems that... You know, a lot of the problems the easy fixes can be there, but the bigger problems we don't have a Congress to do it. No. We don't. We don't have representation anymore. And... We keep electing them but they don't represent us. They don't represent us. And the thing of it is

[00:46:55] we still... All of our problems come from debt, spending more money than what we had, creating problems, bailing people out, bailing the too big to fail banks. And we continue to do it. It's going to continue to happen. So... And it's at our cost. Oh, absolutely. We're funding it all. We're funding it all. So I think we need to stop funding them

[00:47:25] and start funding ourselves. And the only way you can do that is buying real money, real gold, real money, gold and silver. And we do that best. What has the markets done since Trump's inauguration? Has it affected the markets? You know, the stock markets, the paper markets have been strong, of course. Gold, there's pressure on it, but it's still... I mean, it's still holding strong at 27.50. Silver is still holding strong at over 30,

[00:47:55] closer to 31. So, yeah, we see some ups and downs, which I always say you're going to. Well, that's... The dollar is ticking up because of Trump's policies, but if he's pressuring the rates to be dropped, that'll reverse. So, that'll make gold stronger. So, I'm really surprised at how well gold is holding up. Well, we want people to give you a call. Let me give the number.

[00:48:25] It's 1-800-375-4188. That's 1-800-375-4188. If you haven't already started with your gold and silver, now's a good time to do that. We don't know what tomorrow's going to bring. We don't know. We're still at a very high risk for an attack in this country. We all seem to have acted like a balloon and let the air out a little bit, but we cannot let the air out because we are

[00:48:54] at a very high risk of that, and if that happens, you need to be ready in all kinds of directions, and gold and silver is just one of them. But you need to be ready before it happens, and we pray that it doesn't happen. But 1-800-375... There's something else that's going on because I know you have to break away, but a customer sent me something about his bank and how they're introducing tokens. Tokens? And I've talked about tokens before, not on this program, but on another program, and I think that's something maybe

[00:49:24] the next time we start talking about that. That's a curious thing to me. What is a token? Is it like the little wooden ones that said, here's your round to it? No, it's nothing. It's digits. Like... Okay. ...reference in, basically, and I need to do a little more homework on it. Okay, let's do that. But it's interesting, the terminology. It doesn't sound very official, does it? Sounds like you went to the fair and you got a token. Anyway, let's talk about that next time.

[00:49:54] I'll try and do a little research as well. Thank you, Melody, for all that you do. I always have fun when we chit-chat. It's always fun. 1-800-375-4188. Don't just chit-chat. Get down to business. 1-800-375-4188. DGScoins.com. Thank you, Melody. DGScoins.com. Prepare. Trump is just the tourniquet, my friends. Everything, liberty, is always in the hands of the people

[00:51:51] Do we weep for liberty which we have lost? Or do we simply not understand the substance and sacrifice for which we were once privileged? Liberty. Webster defines liberty as the state of being free within society from oppressive restrictions imposed by authority on one's life, behavior, or political views. Today we seem to want restrictions. Government micromanaging our lives? But do we realize the cost? Alexander Hamilton once stated,

[00:52:20] there is a certain enthusiasm in liberty that makes human nature rise above itself in acts of bravery and heroism. As a republic, we the people must guard the liberty of others. We must continue the enthusiasm that will make men free. Visit CSCTalkRadio.com. where Beth Ann puts enthusiasm and common sense back into American liberty as she brings America home.
