Patriot, Yesterday, a financial services company called “Ripple” unveiled a new platform for governments around the world to launch Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs). And the company is already working on a U.S. dollar backed CBDC that it’s testing in the tiny pacific nation of Palau . . . so, when and if Congress gives Ripple the go-ahead, the infrastructure needed for a CBDC will be ready. And over the holiday weekend, Republican leadership in Congress caved and compromised on a debt ceiling deal, bringing us one step closer to a financial crisis the globalists will need to build the pressure for the CBDC. As Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) put it:
“Fake conservatives agreed to fake spending cuts. Debt will increase mandatory spending ~5%, increase military spending ~3%, and maintain current non-military discretionary spending at post-Covid levels. No real cuts to see here.” You don’t have to connect many dots to see what’s on the horizon. Spending will remain out of control, as the “temporary” splurge from Covid has become permanent. Nations around the world are moving away from the dollar, with 30 nations now lined up to join the “BRICS” economic bloc. At some point when it all becomes too much, the CBDC will be the “solution” to the devalued dollar – even though the CBDC would still be based on that same devalued dollar. You’ll be told we need it to stop “money laundering,” as if Washington isn’t the biggest money-launderer in the world. You’ll be told it’s for convenience. They’re even bragging that digital currency is “carbon-neutral!” But make no
mistake: The CBDC is about one thing: total loss of your financial privacy, and total government control over your
money. Remember, Fed Chairman Jerome Powell has come right out and said: the Central Bank Digital Currency would be “identity verified” and “not anonymous.” Imagine the government knowing what you buy and being able to punish you for it. “Your carbon footprint is too big! You’re not using enough GREEN energy! No new truck for you!” That’s just the tip of the iceberg. In Communist China, CCP authorities have already implemented a “social credit system” where people are psychologically profiled and controlled. Imagine what your “social credit score” would look like. Maybe you would be under suspicion for not taking the vaccine, having too many firearms, growing your own food, and so on. Imagine the government being able to punish you based on the causes and campaigns you support. Remember, in Joe Biden’s America, the government views anyone who questions their crimes as a domestic terrorist. Just this month, Biden reiterated that “white supremacy” is the greatest terrorism threat, which he and his pals in Washington label anyone who is not a Democrat. In the Biden regime’s eyes, the American people are the enemy. And they want all of us under their control. That’s why we must demand Congress BAN the Central Bank Digital Currency RIGHT NOW so we can maintain some financial freedom without more government intervention. There’s already a bill in the U.S. Senate, S. 967 – The No CBDC Act – which would do exactly that. But we must DEMAND the bill move forward. We’re talking about total loss of freedom and privacy if a Central Bank Digital Currency replaces the (already very problematic) dollars we have now. Several states have already taken up the cause, with Florida having already passed legislation to ban the CBDC. Texas, Alabama, Louisiana, and North Carolina have active legislation to do the same. But we need Congress to stop the CBDC altogether. Remember: All the “No CBDC Act” does is strengthen existing law by replacing an omission of authority with a hard prohibition. Congress never authorized the creation of a CBDC, and the Federal Reserve Act does not permit the Fed to operate without congressional authority. Regardless, the CBDC has been pushed, promoted, and explored by the Federal Reserve for years now (despite a lack of legislative authority to do so). . . And as many have been saying for some time, this newest banking crisis is just the thing they need to exploit a panic and introduce it. For them, it's not enough the Fed's "print now, ask questions later" monetary policy helps them pretend they aren't destroying the purchasing power of your money. They want the ability to spend and spend on every boondoggle and bailout put in front of them, without the "hindrance" of the Fed actually having to print the paper dollars they create out of thin air. And even more, the government wants a currency they can monitor, profile you with, and if needed, confiscate from you with the push of a button. Here's what I need you to do: First, sign your Directive to Congress: PROHIBIT the Fed from implementing Digital Currency! Then, after you have, please dig deep and chip in with as generous a contribution as you can afford to help Campaign for Liberty recruit and mobilize more patriots to bring this power grab to a crashing halt! Can you give a gift of $25, $50, or even $100 today? I can promise you that unlike some other groups I don’t care to name, Campaign for Liberty uses every dollar you contribute wisely. Campaign for Liberty uses your support not only to rally more patriots, but to mobilize and pressure key members of Congress, not just in Washington but in their home districts. This targeted strategy enables us to have far greater impact than your typical Washington “think tank”: we don’t just deliver petitions; we bring pressure and political pain. It’s a tactic that has worked to tremendous effect over the years. But there is strength in numbers, and we can’t do it without your support. So whether you can give $10, $20, $50, $100, $500, or $1,000 to help us keep up the fight, your support will make the difference. For Liberty, John McCardell Executive Director Campaign for Liberty P.S. It may be their most Orwellian scheme yet – the global elites, Big Government authoritarians, and the banksters at the Federal Reserve are linking arms to impose Central Bank Digital Currency and force you and me onto a so-called "Digital Dollar." We're talking about the end of private financial transactions altogether . . . government goons knowing where every dollar you make and spend ends up . . . even determining what you can and cannot spend them on! So, please, sign your Directive to your U.S. Senators to BAN the Central Bank Digital Currency immediately – then pitch in with your most generous gift of $25, $50, $100, $250, or whatever you can today.
