Radio Show Hour 1 – 11/21/2024

* Guest: Eldon Stahl - Field Coordinator - The John Birch Society - JBS.org - TheNewAmerican.com

* Guest: Heath Perkins, Over the past 50 years, The Rust Family has been working to educate customers about precious metals - FreeWaterCoinCo.com

* Honest Money Report: Gold - $2665.10 Silver - $30.93.

* When Do We Celebrate National Honest Money Day?!

* Alex Jones Sues to Block Onion 's Purchase of Infowars! - A hearing to review the sale is scheduled for next week.

* Trump announced that Musk and Ramaswamy will co-lead a newly created DOGE during his second term. The duo will work with the White House Office of Management and Budget to streamline federal agencies, reduce wasteful spending, and eliminate excessive regulations.

* Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy published an op-ed Wednesday in the WSJ revealing their plans for the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).

* The initiative focuses on three core objectives: cutting regulations, reducing administrative overhead, and achieving cost savings.

A drastic reduction in federal regulations provides sound industrial logic for mass head-count reductions across the federal bureaucracy. DOGE intends to work with embedded appointees in agencies to identify the minimum number of employees required at an agency for it to perform its constitutionally permissible and statutorily mandated functions.

* Relocating federal agencies out of Washington, DC and encouraging voluntary resignations from remote workers unwilling to return to the office full-time.

* The red seal bills are not Federal Reserve Notes; they are United States Notes, also known as Legal Tender Notes. United States Notes were issued by the United States Treasury and are distinct from Federal Reserve Notes, which have a green seal and are issued by the Federal Reserve System.

United States Notes were the earliest type of paper currency issued by the U.S. Government, dating back to the Civil War era, and were intended to finance government spending without increasing the national debt. They are characterized by their red treasury seal and serial numbers. The issuance of United States Notes was discontinued in 1971, and they were gradually removed from circulation, although they still hold legal tender status.

[00:00:14] From atop the Rocky Mountains, the crossroads of the West, you are listening to the Liberty Roundtable Radio Talk Show.

[00:00:24] All right. Happy to have you along, my fellow Americans. Sam Bushman live on your radio.

[00:00:30] Hard-hitting news the networks refuse to use no doubt kicks off now.

[00:00:33] This is a broadcast for November 21st in the year of our Lord, 2024.

[00:00:38] This is Hour 1 of 2 and the goal always to protect life, liberty, and property, to promote God, family, and country,

[00:00:45] and to do so on your radio in the traditions of our founding fathers.

[00:00:48] Yes, indeed, we reject revolution unless it's a Jesus revolution.

[00:00:52] Then we're in because we follow the Prince of Peace, the supreme law of the land, the checks and balances brilliantly put in place.

[00:00:58] Those are the playbooks we use, folks.

[00:00:59] It's all about God, family, and country on this radio program.

[00:01:02] Welcome to the show. Hope you're all doing absolutely fantastic.

[00:01:05] With me today, Eldon Stahl, field coordinator for the John Birch Society, jbs.org, thenewamerican.com.

[00:01:13] We'll get to him in just a moment, ladies and gentlemen.

[00:01:16] But I want to quickly recap the last couple of days on the radio because, man, it's been pretty incredible.

[00:01:22] We had on former congressman from Texas, Steve Stockman, with us yesterday.

[00:01:29] And SteveWorksForYou is his hashtag.

[00:01:32] So at SteveWorksForYou is how you find him on Facebook and Twitter and everything else.

[00:01:35] Steve Stockman hoping to get a full pardon from President Trump coming up soon.

[00:01:40] He's been harassed by the Justice Department and the FBI for literally years now.

[00:01:45] Went to prison and everything else.

[00:01:46] What a sad tale to tell.

[00:01:47] We also had on James Edwards with us.

[00:01:51] James Edwards, ThePoliticalCessable.org.

[00:01:53] Well-known co-host on the broadcast for quite some time.

[00:01:56] And he talks about race, hypocrisy in the 21st century and more.

[00:02:02] ThePoliticalCessable.org for him.

[00:02:04] We talked about Sam's new video shorts that are available all over the place now.

[00:02:09] LibertyRoundtable.com is the source for them.

[00:02:12] And the first one I did is everyone on earth is a war veteran.

[00:02:16] That's right.

[00:02:17] We're talking about war all the time because of Joe Biden's moves over the last weekend.

[00:02:22] But everyone on earth is a war veteran.

[00:02:24] And you go back to the Bible for that guidance.

[00:02:27] Check out the video.

[00:02:28] Pretty neat stuff, though.

[00:02:29] I got a great producer doing videos for me.

[00:02:31] And anyway, check it out.

[00:02:34] LibertyRoundtable.com.

[00:02:36] Democrats must remove Biden now.

[00:02:39] Michael Flynn says that.

[00:02:42] Use the 26th Amendment.

[00:02:43] No, 25th Amendment.

[00:02:44] Get rid of Biden.

[00:02:46] He's a clown.

[00:02:46] And therefore, then you can prosecute Kamala for the war crimes that are taking place right now.

[00:02:51] And you know what?

[00:02:52] I actually agree with General Flynn.

[00:02:54] The deep state invites nuclear war.

[00:02:58] Andy Schlafly over at WND.com.

[00:03:00] Yeah, I think they are inviting nuclear war.

[00:03:02] I think Joe Biden is literally trying to put Donald Trump in the worst position he could possibly be in.

[00:03:07] Elon Musk correctly warns about domestic threat.

[00:03:11] $35 trillion debt time bomb.

[00:03:14] Boy, is he right on that score.

[00:03:16] And hopefully, Vivek and Elon will be breaking that down and doing some good to decrease spending, which is one of the things we need the most.

[00:03:22] We'll drill into that a little later in the broadcast as well.

[00:03:25] Hour two.

[00:03:27] Former Congressman Steve King from Iowa joined the broadcast.

[00:03:33] SteveKing.com.

[00:03:34] Check out his incredible work.

[00:03:35] And we talked about Trump tapped into Linda McMahon for the Secretary of Education.

[00:03:42] Now, good for Trump.

[00:03:43] Trump says she's going to help us dismantle it.

[00:03:45] I hope that's true because I wonder why you hire someone to be in charge of an agency that you're going to abolish.

[00:03:51] But hopefully, she'll do the job.

[00:03:52] We'll talk about that, too.

[00:03:54] Trump picks Howard Letnick to run the Commerce Department.

[00:04:01] I'll just soon shut down the Commerce Department, too.

[00:04:03] By the way, Donald, we also talked about this interesting idea, this Harvard or Hoover Institution senior fellow guy by the name of Victor Davis Hanson.

[00:04:14] He stated on his podcast on Tuesday that he believes Matt Gaetz could be Trump's, quote, sacrificial lamb.

[00:04:23] And Steve King and Steve Stockman and James Edwards and myself all disagreed with that.

[00:04:28] I think Trump really wants to get Matt Gaetz confirmed.

[00:04:32] And even though there's a lot of negative floating around Matt Gaetz due to the provocateurs and the dishonest folks peddling lies, you know what?

[00:04:41] I think that Matt Gaetz might just get it done.

[00:04:44] Donald Trump will help.

[00:04:46] And I'll tell you why.

[00:04:48] I mean, even some of the big networks tried to read on air.

[00:04:51] I think some of the view clowns tried to read on air or whatever.

[00:04:54] Or this idea of Matt Gaetz is, you know, all these allegations against him.

[00:04:57] And then they were forced to read a legal statement saying, hey, but yet none of this stuff has culminated in any effect on Matt Gaetz.

[00:05:04] The allegations have been dropped.

[00:05:07] So very interesting.

[00:05:08] I've never seen networks read a legal statement to get them out of trouble before.

[00:05:13] We also talked about the Kamala Harris campaign spending $1.5 billion.

[00:05:17] You heard me, billion with a B.

[00:05:19] $1.5 billion in 15 weeks on her insane campaign spending.

[00:05:25] That's according to The Blaze.

[00:05:27] She ends up, even after the campaign, after spending $1.5 billion in 15 weeks.

[00:05:32] What's fascinating is she then ends up broke at the end of her campaign, owing like $20 million or more.

[00:05:38] And Donald trolling her, mocking her and saying, hey, I got a little bit of campaign funds left over.

[00:05:43] I can help you out.

[00:05:44] He ran his campaign on pennies compared to Kamala.

[00:05:48] And he has money left over as he trolls them.

[00:05:52] Latest on Trump's cases, where do they stand?

[00:05:56] Theblaze.com with this piece.

[00:05:58] Candace Hathaway brings it up.

[00:06:00] Basically says, you know what?

[00:06:01] All these cases against Donald are going away.

[00:06:03] But what they're trying to do is they're trying to just put the cases all on pause so they can supposedly, after the presidency, attack the Donald again.

[00:06:11] And attorneys now on the conservative side of the discussion, the folks that are not for lawfare saying, you know what?

[00:06:16] That's a clown game.

[00:06:17] You got to drop them completely.

[00:06:19] Don't do it.

[00:06:19] Now, whether you believe the president has that authority or not is a big open discussion.

[00:06:24] The matter what you believe on it.

[00:06:25] But they're trying to hold all these cases over Donald's head for the next four years.

[00:06:29] And experts in the field constitutionally and morally and, you know, attorneys are saying, you know what?

[00:06:34] You can't do that kind of stuff.

[00:06:35] Time will tell if they really can or not.

[00:06:38] We ended with a very interesting tidbit.

[00:06:41] But Henry Kissinger's, quote, final warning.

[00:06:44] Prepare now for, quote, superhuman people to control Earth.

[00:06:50] I kid you not, Ryan Loveless over at Washington Times has that piece.

[00:06:56] And that's where I want to start with our dear friend Eldon Stahl.

[00:07:00] Henry Kissinger's final warning.

[00:07:03] Prepare now for superhuman people to take over the Earth.

[00:07:07] To control Earth is what he says.

[00:07:09] Eldon, what the heck do you think about that?

[00:07:14] Well, if it's God taking over the Earth or Jesus coming to his reign, then that would be just fine.

[00:07:21] It's superhuman.

[00:07:22] Amen.

[00:07:23] That's not what this clown's talking about, though.

[00:07:25] Probably not.

[00:07:26] This is Henry Kissinger, the well-known communist.

[00:07:29] He's talking about AI merging with humans, urging, you know, with big money and all this stuff.

[00:07:35] And they're going to basically be superhumans controlling the Earth that way.

[00:07:38] That's what he means.

[00:07:40] Yeah.

[00:07:41] No.

[00:07:43] You, my friend, will own nothing and be happy, okay?

[00:07:48] Yeah.

[00:07:48] These people, you know, they want to abolish humanity.

[00:07:51] It's really trying to overthrow God is what they're trying to do.

[00:07:59] So, obviously, if you're a God-fearing, a God-loving, anybody that worships God, then...

[00:08:07] A disciple, yeah.

[00:08:07] Yeah, a disciple of God, then you don't want to overthrow God, do you?

[00:08:12] So, you know, you got to pick which side you're on.

[00:08:17] I'm just trying to remind Kissinger and clowns that, you know what, when the Tower of Babel was tried, that didn't go very well.

[00:08:23] And we've never seen success on that side of the discussion since.

[00:08:26] So, you know, we need to dismiss it on one hand as a clown show by these people.

[00:08:31] On the other hand, they have real power, real money, and real influence is the sad part about it all.

[00:08:36] The epic battle is on, isn't it?

[00:08:38] Yes, it is.

[00:08:39] And they are serious about their plans, even though to the average person they seem kind of just outlandish and crazy.

[00:08:48] But they really feel that it's basically a religious belief, a system of some sort, that they can transform humanity and, in a way, abolish humanity and merge it with machines and such to make some sort of utopia or something.

[00:09:16] And, of course, there's variations of it, but they all kind of.

[00:09:19] That'll turn a brain fart into a catastrophic reboot, won't it, Eldon?

[00:09:25] Oh, man.

[00:09:26] Yeah, yeah.

[00:09:28] I mean, it is crazy on the face of it, but at the same time, you know, these folks, they do mean business.

[00:09:39] We've got to mean business about opposing them.

[00:09:40] And I find that interesting, too.

[00:09:45] I did this thing on everybody on Earth is a war veteran.

[00:09:49] And I highlighted that in relation to the wars and rumors of wars and all that's going on.

[00:09:53] But this whacked-out Henry Kissinger discussion kind of goes along with it as well.

[00:09:58] Look, we fought this epic war in heaven between Satan and his angels or whatever you want to say and the followers of Satan versus the followers of Christ.

[00:10:06] And, you know, eventually the dragon was kicked out of heaven to plague people on Earth.

[00:10:10] And, you know, the battle rages on.

[00:10:13] But that's why I say everybody on Earth is a war veteran.

[00:10:15] We fought the war in heaven.

[00:10:16] And that war is just continuing now, whether you take it to be the Iraq-Iran war, whether you take it to be the Israel discussion,

[00:10:23] whether you take it to be this Henry Kissinger battle for the hearts and minds of people all over the world discussion

[00:10:28] and the assertion of control over everyone, taking away, denying people's freedom, all that kind of relates to this epic war.

[00:10:35] When we get back, we'll have you respond to that, Eldon.

[00:10:37] We'll also have Heath Perkins join the mix.

[00:10:42] Heath is our dear friend helping folks with precious metals.

[00:10:46] Why?

[00:13:04] This half hour is brought to you by FreeWaterCoinCo.com.

[00:13:09] Check it out.

[00:13:09] You've got a partner in the Honest Money business.

[00:13:12] The Honest Money Report coming up in mere seconds.

[00:13:14] But we're talking about this situation where Henry Kissinger, this whacked-out old man, literally says,

[00:13:20] Hey, we're going to have superhuman control in the world.

[00:13:23] Get ready for it.

[00:13:24] When the guy's off his rock, but yet the epic battle continues on this thing.

[00:13:28] Eldon, do you want to make a final comment on this before we go to our guest coming up?

[00:13:34] Boy, it's just kind of crazy stuff that sometimes we run into, but people have these ideas, and we've got to deal with them, don't we?

[00:13:45] No, no Tower of Babel is what I'm saying, ladies and gentlemen.

[00:13:48] That's where we're headed.

[00:13:49] This is psychotic.

[00:13:50] What they're really trying to do is upend God.

[00:13:53] They'll never get it done in history.

[00:13:55] Every time they try it, it's a failure.

[00:13:57] So, Kissinger, you're on the wrong side of reality, buddy.

[00:14:00] But let's talk to Heath Perkins.

[00:14:02] He is with FreeWaterCoinCo.com, doing a phenomenal job as always.

[00:14:05] Welcome back, my friend.

[00:14:08] Thank you, Sam.

[00:14:09] I appreciate it.

[00:14:10] What do you think about these clouds?

[00:14:11] They're trying to develop a superhuman class.

[00:14:14] They're going to control the world.

[00:14:15] I don't know if it's big money that they're going to use to control it or AI technology.

[00:14:19] They're going to merge humans and tech together and try to create these superhumans.

[00:14:23] I mean, I understand that if it's used right, it could be really cool or would have machine-aided human interaction, which there's some value there.

[00:14:34] The problem is, you know what?

[00:14:36] It becomes your god if you're not very careful, and it tries to become the modern-day Tower of Babel, Heath.

[00:14:41] Exactly.

[00:14:42] No, so even in the Old Testament, you had hints of these individuals, these Nephilim kind of characters that were kind of controlling a lot of society, the men of renown, if you will.

[00:14:55] These individuals were mighty individuals.

[00:14:59] And, you know, they've been playing around with this idea for a very long time.

[00:15:04] It's not a new idea.

[00:15:05] It's a very cyclical idea.

[00:15:08] And so, yeah, it doesn't surprise me that they want something outside of what was created in the image of God to rule over them.

[00:15:16] These people really don't have their heads on straight.

[00:15:19] And as unfortunate as we, like your previous guest was saying, we have to deal with them.

[00:15:27] What I find interesting about it is the ideas are not new, but the iterations of their agenda are certainly new.

[00:15:34] Whether we build a tower to get to heaven or whether we build this, quote, superhuman based on AI and we try to manipulate genes and DNA to where we never die and all this kind of stuff.

[00:15:45] It's a modern-day twist, but, you know, same playbook, right?

[00:15:50] Yeah.

[00:15:50] Oh, yeah.

[00:15:50] Yeah.

[00:15:51] And it's interesting because, like, if you go far enough back through scriptures, it talks about how Noah and his generations were pure, but that every animal and plant was corrupt.

[00:16:01] And so, you know, through that, you can kind of dissect that, you know, they've been manipulating things for a very long time.

[00:16:08] And that's probably why the first hard reset, you know, by God with the flood even happened was that they were shutting down.

[00:16:15] God was shutting down all the manipulations they had done.

[00:16:17] They kept wanting things to be not created in the image of God.

[00:16:22] I mean, you'd have to be infuriated, you know, as, you know, the devil is that, you know, God put these people here and they're created in his image.

[00:16:33] You know, that would just be insane for the devil to deal with.

[00:16:38] And so, yeah, he's going to try to come here and corrupt everything he can that was created in God's image.

[00:16:43] I'm just kind of redneck, stupid simpleton over here.

[00:16:46] But I just think that we ought to have God at the helm.

[00:16:48] He created the earth.

[00:16:49] We ought to honor the creator.

[00:16:50] We ought to keep his guidelines and rules.

[00:16:52] We ought to keep the two great commandments in the following 10.

[00:16:55] So 12 guidelines for stability and success.

[00:16:57] Love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, mind, and strength.

[00:17:00] Love thy neighbor as thyself.

[00:17:02] And then we just do the thou shalt not steal.

[00:17:04] Thou shalt not covet.

[00:17:05] Thou shalt not kill.

[00:17:06] You know, this kind of stuff.

[00:17:08] And, you know, life would be really, really simple and wonderful for everybody.

[00:17:12] I mean, that's all it really takes to make it happen, those 12 good guidelines and God Almighty and turning to him and repenting and being kind and forgiving.

[00:17:19] And, you know, we don't need to seek for power.

[00:17:21] We need to seek to pull it down and all this.

[00:17:22] It's really simple if you're a guy like me, Eldon.

[00:17:27] Yeah, right.

[00:17:30] When you get into some of these theories of people that want to rule the world, they want to make everything so convoluted, don't they?

[00:17:39] I guess God's not the author of confusion.

[00:17:43] Amen to that.

[00:17:43] What we need to do, though, is get signs in our back windows that would be like digital signs that could update and stuff.

[00:17:48] And when I'm in a red light and everybody's honking at me and stuff like that, all I do is I just have it automatically flashed at my brain's rebooting because I'm tied to tech.

[00:17:56] I'm tied to AI.

[00:17:57] My brain's rebooting.

[00:17:58] And you guys are just going to have to just chill out until the reboot happens.

[00:18:01] Then I'll go.

[00:18:01] Otherwise, just sit down and shut up because, you know, I know it's a joke, but at the same time, it's like who wants their brain to be tied to a computer?

[00:18:10] Everybody that I know that works on a computer, whenever I talk to them in, they're like, hold on, my computer's going really slow today.

[00:18:15] You want to be tapped into that?

[00:18:17] Are you kidding me right now?

[00:18:20] That's what's so surprising about Neuralink that Elon Musk created was that he wants us to have that ability.

[00:18:26] I mean, that's when the idea at first is that there's some good that can be done with it for those who are blind or other things.

[00:18:33] But Neuralink, sometimes, you know, people have taken that to be this could go south if we allow it.

[00:18:43] Boy, howdy.

[00:18:44] And when we say if we allow it, that's we the people need to be engaged in the game.

[00:18:47] That's for sure.

[00:18:47] And getting engaged in the game, Heath Perkins, let's talk about the Honest Money Report in relation to this because that's the only way they can really gain so much authority over the rest of us is if they, you know, manipulate money to their advantage.

[00:19:00] Otherwise, hey, that's almost impossible to do.

[00:19:03] And the Founding Fathers understood that.

[00:19:04] That's why they tied their culture to honest money.

[00:19:08] That's why they basically said, hey, you know what?

[00:19:09] This is going to chain everybody down by the Constitution, and we want to make sure nobody gets too powerful.

[00:19:14] But they've tried to upend that.

[00:19:16] We'll get into the details in a minute.

[00:19:18] But where's gold sitting right now, Heath?

[00:19:21] Gold's sitting about $2,665 for the spot price.

[00:19:25] If you're buying a house.

[00:19:26] $2,665.

[00:19:27] Any pennies?

[00:19:30] Yeah.

[00:19:31] $2,665.10.

[00:19:35] $10.

[00:19:36] Okay.

[00:19:37] And then silver's sitting about $30.92.

[00:19:45] $30.93.

[00:19:46] So really, not too much has changed.

[00:19:48] Gold's gone up a teeny bit other than that from last time, but not much.

[00:19:52] Correct.

[00:19:53] Yep.

[00:19:53] Kind of sideways with the silver.

[00:19:56] A little bit of bump on gold.

[00:19:57] But yeah, still.

[00:19:59] What's the ratio of silver to gold right now?

[00:20:01] 80.

[00:20:02] Good question.

[00:20:04] $26,65.10.

[00:20:06] Silver, $30.93, ladies and gentlemen.

[00:20:11] And I really am fond of the nickels that our folks over at Freewater Queen Co. have because you can get them below spot right now.

[00:20:18] They're literally like 35% gold in the nickels.

[00:20:21] But they always are honest with you about how it works.

[00:20:23] It's about 18 nickels.

[00:20:24] I should say it's 18 nickels to a one-ounce round equivalent, if you will, one try ounce.

[00:20:31] So 18 nickels.

[00:20:33] And the nickels are a pretty good deal in their spot right now.

[00:20:35] I like those.

[00:20:35] I like the dimes and the halves and the quarters.

[00:20:37] I like the one-ounce rounds.

[00:20:39] I like the silver eagle, silver dollar.

[00:20:41] I like that stuff that's really close to spot because it's easy.

[00:20:45] It's inexpensive.

[00:20:46] You can just buy it a little bit over time.

[00:20:48] You keep doing a little bit, little bit, little bit.

[00:20:50] And you look back after a couple of years and you go, wow, I got quite a bit here.

[00:20:53] That's really great.

[00:20:54] You know, that kind of stuff.

[00:20:55] Anyway, sorry to steal the thunder here, but I wanted to give you a chance to, what are

[00:20:59] we looking at when it comes to gold and silver?

[00:21:00] It used to be 15 or 20 to one, right?

[00:21:03] You're in 86 to one right now.

[00:21:05] So ratios are way out.

[00:21:08] Which means silver is just an incredible buy right now.

[00:21:12] Correct.

[00:21:13] All right.

[00:21:14] Eldon, what do you think of all that?

[00:21:17] Well, it's really nice to have something that is, I mean, tends to grow in value.

[00:21:24] And has that, you know, that intrinsic value in it.

[00:21:29] Something like gold and silver.

[00:21:31] And what I like is, you know, you can hold it.

[00:21:36] It's kind of the idea of, you know, something like a cryptocurrency.

[00:21:43] It's all kind of, you can't touch it.

[00:21:46] You can't hold it.

[00:21:48] It seems like the things that you can actually hold, those are the things that you can,

[00:21:55] control a lot more.

[00:21:56] Yeah, like your spouse and your money.

[00:21:57] You got to hold them both, you know.

[00:21:58] Don't just have virtuals.

[00:21:59] You know what I'm saying, Heath?

[00:22:02] Oh, yeah.

[00:22:05] I just said, it's a weird world we're living in, my friend.

[00:22:09] It's hard for guys like me to have this reality.

[00:22:12] Watch out for those crypto spouses.

[00:22:15] I mean.

[00:22:16] Yeah, they'll rob your blood.

[00:22:19] They'll get you.

[00:22:21] You should spend right now, Heath.

[00:22:23] All that you have.

[00:22:24] It's worth it, buddy.

[00:22:25] No.

[00:22:28] I just can't really understand, you know, some of the stuff that we're really talking

[00:22:33] about.

[00:22:34] And what's interesting to me is, to me, it's like almost a joke.

[00:22:37] But yet, these people are serious, Heath.

[00:22:40] And these people have real money and real power and real global authority, though.

[00:22:43] Now, whether it's legitimately obtained or not, it's a different discussion.

[00:22:46] But they indeed have it, and they can influence outcomes and change the game.

[00:22:50] Donald Trump was against digital currencies for a long time.

[00:22:53] But on this last campaign trail, he's been very pro-digital currencies.

[00:22:57] He says we're going to do it right.

[00:22:58] Now he's involved with his sons in a crypto company and everything else.

[00:23:01] What do you think of that?

[00:23:04] I think he's using the platform to help himself and others a little bit there.

[00:23:11] But I saw the digital path that we're going to take.

[00:23:15] You're probably going to see him say, you know, for us to get a lot of these illegal immigrants

[00:23:19] out of the country, we might need a digital ID.

[00:23:22] I could see that happening.

[00:23:24] There's just some direction that's being taken regardless that I'm still leery of.

[00:23:29] I do not like the idea of a digital currency.

[00:23:34] All it does is take away more of our agency.

[00:23:38] You know, they want to connect digital currencies to artificial intelligence,

[00:23:42] which would then limit you on proximity from where you live to be able to buy stuff.

[00:23:48] And, you know, they might limit you on what you can buy.

[00:23:52] So you can only have, you know, two hamburgers a month to, you know.

[00:23:55] That's right.

[00:23:56] We don't want you to get all fat over there, Heath.

[00:23:58] Come on now.

[00:23:59] We also need to have you.

[00:24:00] You need a digital girlfriend.

[00:24:01] If you don't get one of those, we're going to reprogram your currency in half, okay?

[00:24:05] I only have one question in response to all this as we take a quick break, ladies and gentlemen.

[00:24:10] When do we celebrate National Honest Money Day, huh?

[00:24:13] There we go.

[00:24:14] Just wondering.

[00:24:15] All right.

[00:26:00] There's a hefty price to pay for this cup of coffee in the UK.

[00:26:04] Would you pay $344 for a coffee?

[00:26:07] That's what a Scottish farm is selling the UK's most expensive cup.

[00:26:11] A Scottish dairy is offering what it bills as the UK's most expensive cup of joe.

[00:26:17] £272.

[00:26:19] That's $344 for a flat white.

[00:26:21] A double shot of espresso topped with a layer of steamed milk and a fleeting work of foam art.

[00:26:27] The costly cup is actually a perk for purchasing shares in Moskiel Organic Dairy's crowdfunding campaign

[00:26:33] to enlarge its sustainable operation and produce more milk.

[00:29:00] Scott Bradley here.

[00:29:01] Most Americans are painfully aware that the nation is on the wrong track and in dire straits.

[00:29:07] Unfortunately, most political pundits only nibble around the edges when they claim to address the issues.

[00:29:13] Even worse, many of the so-called solutions are simply rewarmed servings of what got us into the mess we currently face.

[00:29:19] And the politicians think we're so gullible and naive that we'll buy their lies that they have reformed

[00:29:25] and now understand where they led us astray.

[00:29:28] Unfortunately, the truth of the matter is that they simply wish to continue to hold power.

[00:29:33] The solution to America's challenges is found in returning to the timeless principles found in the United States Constitution.

[00:29:40] My book and lecture series will reawaken in Americans an understanding and love of the principles which made this nation

[00:29:47] the freest, most prosperous, happiest, and most respected nation on earth.

[00:30:32] Eldon Stahl with me, field coordinator for the John Birch Society, jbs.org,

[00:30:37] and thenewamerican.com.

[00:30:38] The New American, one of the premier magazines for truth in reporting.

[00:30:41] I'll tell you that right now.

[00:30:43] Also, Heath Perkins with us.

[00:30:46] He's with freewaterquenco.com.

[00:30:48] You've got a friend in the Honest Money business.

[00:30:51] Over the past 50 years, the Rust family has been really working to help people understand

[00:30:55] and take possession of, yeah, precious metals.

[00:31:01] Precious metals, one of the great keys.

[00:31:02] You've got to grab things you can hold like your spouse and your money.

[00:31:05] You know what I'm talking about?

[00:31:06] Anyway, there you have it.

[00:31:08] We're talking about the Honest Money Report, ladies and gentlemen.

[00:31:10] One, gold is sitting at 2665.

[00:31:14] Ten right now.

[00:31:17] Silver, 3093.

[00:31:18] And keep an eye on that.

[00:31:21] I'm asking, when do we celebrate National Honest Money Day?

[00:31:24] That's something really critical we've got to kind of focus on.

[00:31:27] National Honest Money Day.

[00:31:28] I don't know what day would be the best for that.

[00:31:29] I'm trying to think of that.

[00:31:30] Should it be Black Friday?

[00:31:33] What day should we have?

[00:31:34] You know, Cyber Monday or whatever.

[00:31:36] Or, you know, small business Saturday.

[00:31:37] That's kind of the day after Black Friday.

[00:31:40] I don't know when to celebrate it, but we've got to have an Honest Money Day.

[00:31:44] We've got to have a day that we really celebrate the importance of understanding real money,

[00:31:48] especially as we go into this digital world and leave the dollar.

[00:31:52] I mean, go from one fiat currency to a global, manipulatable, programmable currency.

[00:31:56] And I kind of mentioned right on the break, if you don't behave the way you want, they'll just reprogram your money.

[00:32:01] You'll just have a little less in your digital brain wallet, whatever they call this, merged, I don't know what the heck thing.

[00:32:08] But very strange, Heath, idea here.

[00:32:13] And I'm kind of wondering, when are we going to celebrate Honest Money Day?

[00:32:17] I just looked it up, but August 15th is the day that Nixon took us off the gold standard.

[00:32:22] So maybe that's the day that we celebrate to put ourselves back individually on the gold standard.

[00:32:29] Yeah, what day do we go?

[00:32:31] What day in the United States, I guess, was when we adopted the Constitution, September 17th, Constitution Day?

[00:32:36] The problem is I don't want to take a day from something.

[00:32:38] I want to use a day that's unique, right?

[00:32:40] Right?

[00:32:41] So what day might make sense?

[00:32:43] I don't know.

[00:32:44] Do you have any ideas, Eldon?

[00:32:47] I don't know what day might they make.

[00:32:54] Could be any day, I suppose.

[00:32:58] We need to have some, you know, we need to look at history and have some kind of symbolic day that makes sense.

[00:33:03] I like August 15th is a good, simple day.

[00:33:05] The problem is it's the day we went off the gold standard.

[00:33:08] I don't know that that's a great celebratory day necessarily, but we could turn it down.

[00:33:12] Maybe the day the Coinage Act was enacted back in 1789 or whatever it was.

[00:33:18] Yeah, we'll have to look that up.

[00:33:21] Anyway, I'm bringing this to the populace.

[00:33:23] Email me at Liberty Roundtable at Gmail if you've got a day that we ought to make Honest Money Day for some good historical reasons.

[00:33:29] We'd love to hear your input on the topic.

[00:33:31] But I'm just saying right now, when do we celebrate National Honest Money Day?

[00:33:35] You know, righteous moral weights and measures according to the Bible.

[00:33:40] You know, this is really important that we talk about this from an honesty point of view.

[00:33:43] Every time we bring this up, it needs to be an honesty discussion, ladies and gentlemen.

[00:33:47] Speaking of weird money and weird twists that I want to bring up to you, gentlemen, Alex Jones, as you know, got sued.

[00:33:54] And anyway, they said he owed $1.5 billion.

[00:33:57] And then, you know, he lied about Sandy Hook, they say.

[00:34:00] And he can't express his freedom of speech.

[00:34:02] And so they fined him $1.5 billion, this unprecedented, unachievable amount.

[00:34:07] And everybody knows it.

[00:34:08] The only way you could have that kind of, you know, dollars and discussions would be with fake money in the first place.

[00:34:12] I digress.

[00:34:13] Except to say then, you know, he was forced to sell his assets.

[00:34:17] And then the Onion supposedly bought his assets in a bidding contest.

[00:34:21] The Onion, as you know, they're basically a tongue-in-cheek news service or whatever you want to say.

[00:34:29] Kind of comedic news service.

[00:34:31] They kind of make fun of everything.

[00:34:32] What they wanted to do was buy it out of bankruptcy, then use it to just make fun of Alex Jones and anybody like Alex, so us and everybody else.

[00:34:40] The problem is then they had this bidding plan, and they basically played games at the bidding process to the point where the group that bid the least amount of money got it.

[00:34:50] There was only two bidders.

[00:34:52] And then they said, oh, no, you know, we got this kind of loan creditor.

[00:34:55] We're in partnership with the people who won against Alex Jones and want to take him down.

[00:35:00] Should they be involved in a satire bid and purchase?

[00:35:02] And so Alex Jones went off and said, hey, this is a scandal.

[00:35:06] This is a bogus thing.

[00:35:07] Well, now Alex Jones sues to block the Onion's purchase of InfoWars.

[00:35:15] And then the headline says a hearing to review the sale is scheduled for next week.

[00:35:23] We'll keep an eye on that ball, but I just find this very interesting.

[00:35:26] In their purchase of this thing, I guess somehow they played games and played favorites.

[00:35:33] The people with less money.

[00:35:35] Now, they had more money on the table but less actual cash offer.

[00:35:39] It was based on this kind of deal where all these people that are involved in trying to take down Alex Jones are involved.

[00:35:45] And it's almost a big conspiracy to take him off the air and mock him forever with it.

[00:35:49] Anyway, they got caught manipulating the bidding process.

[00:35:53] And then Elon Musk jumps to Alex Jones' defense and comes in and says, look, you guys are trying to sell as part of your bidding process.

[00:36:01] Sell Alex Jones' Twitter account.

[00:36:04] I don't think so.

[00:36:05] We don't sell Twitter accounts, says Elon Musk, as he brings his team of experts and stuff.

[00:36:10] This is getting messy fast.

[00:36:11] At first, it was laugh at Alex Jones, mock him, fine him, shut him down.

[00:36:15] And now the fight back begins.

[00:36:17] And Alex Jones is saying that Elon Musk is on his side and so is Donald Trump.

[00:36:22] Where do you see this thing going, Heath?

[00:36:25] I think this is finally a stance that needs to be taken.

[00:36:29] Like, even though Elon or Donald may or may not agree with Alex Jones, like we need to support each other with our First Amendment right.

[00:36:36] Like, if we don't support, you know, the opposition in their First Amendment right, we're just going to lose it ourselves once it's taken from them.

[00:36:45] So this is a great step for freedom of speech.

[00:36:49] And hopefully, you know, this sets a precedent to where, you know, you don't mess around with the First Amendment.

[00:36:56] You leave it be.

[00:36:58] And for those who want to, they're going to have a big mess on their hands.

[00:37:06] Now, I find this fascinating because, you know, they can say Alex lied.

[00:37:09] Alex knew full well.

[00:37:10] Alex extorted and got a bunch of money from.

[00:37:12] But does the penalty fit the crime?

[00:37:15] So he lied and he peddled stuff that was not accurate or whatever else.

[00:37:19] On a free speech point of view, he has the right to lie and say those things if he wants to, number one.

[00:37:23] Number two, you know, did he make money?

[00:37:25] Did he cross the line?

[00:37:26] And if he did, really, does the penalty match the crime?

[00:37:29] And that's kind of my biggest problem with this thing.

[00:37:31] Take away his whole company to where it doesn't exist anymore.

[00:37:34] Completely shut him down off the air, which is what they're trying to do.

[00:37:36] $1.5 billion fine.

[00:37:38] I mean, if lying is the standard, every member of Congress owes me a lot of money.

[00:37:42] They've been lying to me forever.

[00:37:44] I'm just – Eldon, what do you say to this?

[00:37:47] Yeah, that's been a – you know, in Western civilization, coming down from Cicero Bacaria,

[00:37:55] that is a fundamental principle of criminal law and, you know, just basically judicial prudence

[00:38:07] that the penalty should be proportional to the law rather than being something that's out of vengeance,

[00:38:14] out of proportion.

[00:38:15] And we have that reflected in the Eighth Amendment, which prohibits excessive fines.

[00:38:22] We also have in – I should remember which amendment it is – but the prohibition against cruel and unusual punishment.

[00:38:33] Both of those are principles that are a step away from the tradition that was, you know,

[00:38:40] through many, many centuries in Europe of abusing those principles that would protect people's rights.

[00:38:49] But now with this Alex Jones situation, they're trying to say, okay, basically if somebody speaks amiss,

[00:38:58] that we should not just fine them in a reasonable amount but cut out their tongue and hold them up and crucify them essentially.

[00:39:09] That's exactly where we are with this thing.

[00:39:11] And I look at it and go, man, you know, I mean, they've had all kinds of people have lied, maligned me,

[00:39:15] but then what they say is, oh, Sam, you're a celebrity.

[00:39:18] They can do that and you have no protection.

[00:39:20] So they tell you I'm a nobody when they want to, but when they want to protect themselves from me,

[00:39:23] then they say I'm a celebrity, that I'm so important and powerful and a public figure to where you can't touch me.

[00:39:28] I mean, it's insane, Heath.

[00:39:31] No, I agree.

[00:39:34] I agree.

[00:39:34] And I felt this, and this is where it's kind of been in the background,

[00:39:39] but this should have been addressed back when they took Trump's Twitter account away from him this last go around.

[00:39:46] You know, when the sitting president of the United States, you know, has a Twitter account taken away,

[00:39:54] the First Amendment's hugely under attack, if not completely shut down at that moment.

[00:40:00] Because, like, if the president, you know, the most powerful man in the world can have his Twitter account taken away,

[00:40:06] like, who can't be shut down at that point?

[00:40:08] And so I think this is long overdue to be addressed, that we kind of push back on this freedom of speech momentum

[00:40:18] and start taking more of it back.

[00:40:21] But, yeah, this is a dangerous one to let slide.

[00:40:26] And so I'm glad that they're stepping in and kind of, you know, pushing towards, you know,

[00:40:32] helping Alex Jones with his right to free speech.

[00:40:35] All right.

[00:42:27] This is a battle.

[00:42:29] A battle between truth and deceit.

[00:42:31] A battle between forces that would enslave this country in darkness.

[00:42:35] And between a media that wants to present you with the truth.

[00:42:39] We are being censored.

[00:42:41] America's news outlets no longer provide the truth.

[00:42:44] 90% of news outlets in the United States are controlled by six corporations.

[00:42:50] The mission of the Epoch Times is to chase the truth.

[00:42:53] To ground all statements and facts.

[00:42:55] The Epoch Times dot com.

[00:43:03] All right, Heath Perkins with us, ladies and gentlemen, on Freewatercoinco.com.

[00:43:09] You were saying basically, hey, you know what?

[00:43:10] We should have dealt with this free speech battle back when they tried to take away or when they did take away Donald Trump's account.

[00:43:16] He's sitting president of the United States.

[00:43:18] And if we don't have the First Amendment for him, we don't have it for anybody.

[00:43:21] You're spot on on this, Heath.

[00:43:24] Yeah, no, it was it was a battle that we lost four years ago.

[00:43:28] And, you know, I like to see that we're that you have more individuals now fighting for this.

[00:43:36] But no one stood up back then, you know, because either you loved him or you hate him.

[00:43:40] And if you loved him, yeah, you support him.

[00:43:42] But if you hated him, he didn't care if it was taken away.

[00:43:44] And that's that's the bad part.

[00:43:46] Like we regardless of who has their their speech taken away, like we have to support those individuals.

[00:43:55] It doesn't matter if it's like, you know, you know, horrible beings or not, like or crude or, you know, whatever it is like that freedom of speech is a very slippery slope.

[00:44:04] And we've we've already started to slide a little bit.

[00:44:07] And hopefully we can gain that traction back and get back to where we need to be.

[00:44:11] Amen.

[00:44:11] It's kind of like, hey, I may not agree with what you say, but I agree that you have the right to say it is the quintessential point.

[00:44:17] All right.

[00:44:18] Moving on to the economy.

[00:44:19] I find this soundbite.

[00:44:21] I got it from the bottom of the hour news.

[00:44:23] And on the news break, I heard it and it made me laugh.

[00:44:26] And so I clipped it out and I want to play it really quick.

[00:44:28] Transition this into a little bit of discussion about the economy.

[00:44:31] Here it is.

[00:44:32] Listen to this.

[00:44:32] There's a hefty price to pay for this cup of coffee in the UK.

[00:44:37] Would you pay three hundred and forty four dollars for a coffee?

[00:44:39] That's what a Scottish farm is selling the UK's most expensive cup.

[00:44:43] A Scottish dairy is offering what it bills as the UK's most expensive cup of joe.

[00:44:49] Two hundred and seventy two pounds.

[00:44:51] That's three hundred and forty four dollars for a flat white.

[00:44:54] A double shot of espresso topped with a layer of steamed milk and a fleeting work of foam art.

[00:44:59] The costly cup is actually a perk for purchasing shares in Moskiel Organic Dairy's crowdfunding campaign to enlarge its sustainable operation and produce more milk.

[00:45:10] Hey, would you pay three hundred and forty four dollars for a cup of coffee?

[00:45:15] No, no.

[00:45:18] Oh, my heavens.

[00:45:19] I mean, the lady's comical.

[00:45:21] But the point economically speaking, three hundred and forty four bucks for a cup of joe?

[00:45:26] Eldon, would you buy one of them?

[00:45:29] I would not.

[00:45:30] I would not pay three hundred forty four dollars for a cup of coffee.

[00:45:35] I don't understand you guys.

[00:45:37] Let me just explain something to you now.

[00:45:41] I'm trying to figure this out.

[00:45:42] Three hundred and forty four divided by thirty dollars is eleven point four six ounces of silver is all you got to have for this baby.

[00:45:50] Now, eleven point four ounces of silver.

[00:45:53] How many dimes?

[00:45:54] Eighteen times eleven.

[00:45:56] It's like, you know, two hundred and ten nickels is all you're talking about for it for a steaming cup of joe with milk on top.

[00:46:04] Heath?

[00:46:05] Yeah.

[00:46:06] Oh, great.

[00:46:07] I mean, yeah, it's sustainable.

[00:46:08] I mean, but those prices.

[00:46:10] Yeah.

[00:46:10] You can make anything sustainable.

[00:46:12] Well, if you had those prices, you know, let me just tell you guys how it really needs to work.

[00:46:20] If I'm the guy selling the joe and there's plenty of buyers that I'm in.

[00:46:24] Yeah.

[00:46:25] Yeah.

[00:46:27] Not really.

[00:46:28] I just find that very comical, though, economically speaking, though, we're all starting to kind of feel like that's the case with the inflation out of control.

[00:46:37] And we've got to got to got to cut spending if we're going to ever have a prayer.

[00:46:42] To deal with this thing.

[00:46:44] National Honest Money Day, I think, is one of the great keys to highlight the truth.

[00:46:47] But now we see that Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy published an op-ed piece on Wednesday in the Wall Street Journal detailing their plans to deal with this new government efficiency thing called the DOGE or whatever.

[00:47:06] D-O-G-E, DOGE.

[00:47:08] The initiative focuses on three primary components.

[00:47:12] Cutting regulations.

[00:47:15] Reducing, quote, administrative overhead.

[00:47:19] And achieving cost savings.

[00:47:21] Now, it sounds so bland and simple that it doesn't seem like it'll have much teeth.

[00:47:26] But when you dig in, it's actually a little better than we kind of think here.

[00:47:30] A drastic reduction in federal regulations provides sound industrial logic for mass headcount reductions across the federal bureaucracy, they claim.

[00:47:46] Yeah.

[00:47:47] And Swami wants to go and take everyone who has a Social Security number that's an odd number at the very last number.

[00:47:56] And those individuals who work for the government are now unemployed.

[00:48:00] I mean, he wants to make it as fair and even as possible because there's no discrimination using an odd number and a Social Security number.

[00:48:08] So, yeah, he's looking to make some waves for sure.

[00:48:14] I don't know how much of a target that they're painting on their back with all of this coming out so quickly.

[00:48:18] Like, that's going to be a lot of trouble.

[00:48:21] You wonder if you should keep the ideas under wraps.

[00:48:24] On the other hand, wise people say you've only got a year to accomplish all this because then you're going to have to start running again.

[00:48:30] And it'll either haunt you if you don't have it done or benefit you if you do have it done.

[00:48:34] Now, here's what's interesting.

[00:48:36] The Doge intends to work with, quote, embedded appointees involved in these agencies to identify the minimum number of employees required at an agency for it to perform its, quote, constitutionally permissible and statutory mandated functions.

[00:48:57] Eldon, that's saying something.

[00:48:58] So, this is what I mean by it.

[00:49:00] First, it sounds vague.

[00:49:01] When you dig in, though, amen to that, Eldon.

[00:49:05] I can easily identify the constitutionally mandated requirement for the Department of Education.

[00:49:16] Zero.

[00:49:17] Oh, wow.

[00:49:18] In fact, they might owe us money back, huh?

[00:49:21] I don't know where we're going to get that from.

[00:49:22] Forget that.

[00:49:23] We'll just call it zero.

[00:49:23] Okay.

[00:49:24] We need to put Eldon Stahl in one of those agencies to get that done.

[00:49:27] They also say they're going to relocate federal agencies outside of Washington, D.C., encouraging volunteer resignations from remote workers who are unwilling to return to the office full time.

[00:49:40] Man, imagine that if you work for the government.

[00:49:42] If you're not willing to work full time, then we're going to go ahead and let you resign.

[00:49:48] Yeah.

[00:49:50] Oh, man.

[00:49:52] Oh, man.

[00:49:53] You have to actually show up for work and stuff?

[00:49:57] Yeah.

[00:49:58] I'm not too fond, though, gentlemen, personally, of this relocating these agencies out of Washington, D.C.

[00:50:04] That's just a great way to keep them alive when they ought to be shut down entirely if we're not very careful.

[00:50:09] They also say if federal employees don't want to show up, American taxpayers should not.

[00:50:16] Pay them for the privilege of staying home.

[00:50:18] I agree with that.

[00:50:19] Then Ramaswamy said on Tuesday that federal employees must return to the office, believe it or not, full time, five days a week.

[00:50:27] And employees are all in tears over this, Heath.

[00:50:31] I believe it.

[00:50:33] Once you get used to a lot of those comfy perks, it's hard to backtrack out of them and still, you know, want to go in.

[00:50:43] I mean, yeah, like you get too comfortable and we've let them become too comfortable.

[00:50:48] But it's it's interesting to see all of this happening and how many people are coming out in Trump's new cabinet that are that are guns blazing.

[00:51:00] I mean, this is a lot of changes that they're looking at doing very quickly and very rapidly.

[00:51:06] So I'd be I'd be interested to see how this plays out because because there's a lot of shakeup.

[00:51:13] And if you have all those individuals in the government that are now unemployed and are now in the workforce,

[00:51:19] can we absorb all that?

[00:51:21] You know, can the workforce hire that?

[00:51:24] And are we just going to get a bunch of individuals who, you know, aren't, you know, as hard workers as as most?

[00:51:33] Well, if we get rid of the income tax entirely, we start reducing things to where actually businesses have the flexibility and in the capital to hire.

[00:51:40] I think it's a possibility.

[00:51:41] I think we need to put a bunch of tariffs in place.

[00:51:43] I think we need to get rid of all the income tax and take the burden off the American people.

[00:51:47] And the real question is, how serious are we at cutting spending?

[00:51:49] And how serious are we really at reducing this red tape and regulation and this out of control costs?

[00:51:55] And that's really the question.

[00:51:55] I'm calling for my dear friend Heath Perkins, though, to be on one of these boards.

[00:52:00] I mean, you need an honest money man in the mix, Heath.

[00:52:03] There we go.

[00:52:05] So here's a thought for you.

[00:52:08] I honestly would would like to see us get rid of the Federal Reserve.

[00:52:13] Amen.

[00:52:14] Back the printing of the money.

[00:52:17] If we could, if Trump could do what JFK did, which was use the assets of the United States government to issue its own currency, U.S. Treasury note versus the Federal Reserve notes, Red Seals, that Kennedy printed.

[00:52:33] And he could and Trump could use because the United States government owns Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, which has 90 percent of all the mortgages in the U.S.

[00:52:41] They also have all the BLM land.

[00:52:44] Those two things right there would allow the U.S. the asset class that is needed to, not necessarily a class, but the assets that are needed to fund or to be the backing for us printing our own currency again.

[00:52:59] And sidestepping the Federal Reserve and pretty much getting rid of the Federal Reserve.

[00:53:03] I mean, that thing has been our downfall since its inception.

[00:53:06] And if we had a way of getting out of that, which the last person who tried Kennedy, he was he wasn't alive for very much longer after he did that.

[00:53:15] So it'd be a huge uphill battle.

[00:53:17] But someone's got to change things.

[00:53:20] And that seems to be the only true asset the United States government has that would really be able to back something with us printing our own.

[00:53:28] And so we the United States could start earning its own interest instead of the Federal Reserve earning interest on the money that prints out of thin air.

[00:53:38] So, yeah, it'll be interesting to see.

[00:53:42] And I guess that'd be a fun one to give some good ideas to to individuals who can change things.

[00:53:50] I think we need to put him on the board to audit and in the Fed, Eldon.

[00:53:55] There we go.

[00:53:57] All right.

[00:53:58] So the two dollar bill, though, it doesn't say Federal Reserve note.

[00:54:01] It says Treasury note.

[00:54:04] The the red red bill.

[00:54:07] So back in Kennedy passed the bill that allowed him to print 80 billion red bill notes.

[00:54:14] It said U.S. Treasury note at the top.

[00:54:15] The green bills are the Federal Reserve notes.

[00:54:18] And so any of those red bills, you know, they use the silver of the United States government to do that.

[00:54:24] But, yeah, that was the U.S. earning interest on its own money.

[00:54:27] Keith Perkins, thank you so much for flat out of time.
