Do you want to know investment success secrets? Look no further than today's discussion! The long-dominant "buy the Magnificent 7 and forget it" tech trade is fading, with sector rotation favoring energy, materials, and staples while technology and discretionary lag. Drawing on presidential cycle data, it seems markets often experience weakness and corrections in midterm years before potential strength later, though today's backdrop of sticky inflation, high debt, and constrained Federal Reserve policy could challenge historical norms. Liquidity over politics is the true market driver and power preservation incentives may shape fiscal and economic decisions and highlights opportunities in defensive sectors and fixed income if rates fall. As always, disciplined investing is the most important: avoid ego, abandon rigid outcome-based predictions, adopt scenario-based thinking, respect price action, and define in advance when you are wrong. We discuss... The long-standing strategy of simply buying mega-cap tech stocks is breaking down as sector leadership rotates. Energy, materials, and staples are outperforming while technology and discretionary stocks lag, signaling possible market-top behavior. Historical sector rotation patterns suggest markets may be transitioning from expansion toward a late-cycle phase. Midterm presidential years historically bring volatility and frequent 10–20% corrections before potential recovery. Liquidity is framed as the primary force driving market cycles. Today's environment of sticky inflation, high debt, and constrained Federal Reserve policy may weaken the reliability of historical patterns. Defensive sectors and fixed income could benefit if growth slows and interest rates decline. Political incentives around power preservation may influence fiscal decisions and economic optics heading into elections. Investors are warned not to blindly "buy the dip," especially in volatile assets like crypto. The hosts stress that price action ultimately determines whether an investment thesis is right or wrong. Ego and overconfidence are identified as major threats to long-term investing success. Outcome-based thinking is discouraged in favor of scenario-based planning across multiple probable outcomes. Behavioral research shows experts often double down when wrong, reinforcing the importance of flexibility. Successful investing requires humility, adaptability, risk management, and clearly defined exit strategies.   Today's Panelists: Kirk Chisholm | Innovative Wealth Douglas Heagren | Mergent College Advisors Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/moneytreepodcast Follow LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/money-tree-investing-podcast Follow on Twitter/X: https://x.com/MTIPodcast For more information, visit the show notes at https://moneytreepodcast.cominvesting-success-secrets-793

Sons Of Liberty Radio with Bradlee Dean Restoring the Standard: Impeachment, Accountability, and the Rule of Law Sons of Liberty: The Impeachment Doctrine Analysis of Constitutional Justice, Political Accountability, and the Minnesota Impeachment Movement. Broadcast: 55min Core Philosophy "No man is above the law, and no man is below it... Resignation is not justice; it is permission to live above the law." 3 Purposes of Gov • Maintain righteous cause • Preserve social order • Condemn the wicked The "Divide" Trap The "Right vs. Left" narrative is a created language designed to make lies sound truthful and ensure "Divide and Conquer." Historical Precedents 1868 A. Johnson: 11 Articles 1974 Nixon: Resigned (Watergate) 1998 Clinton: Impeached (Chinagate) Key Participants Bradley Dean (Host) Sen. Eric Lucero (MN Senate) Pam Altendorf (Voter Integrity) Current Targets Tim WalzImpeachment Keith EllisonInvestigation Illegal Aid$66M Fund Keywords #Constitution #Treason #MNLeg #BiblicalWorldview Source: Sons of Liberty Radio (2026-02-24) Target Audience: Constitutionalists & Patriots This broadcast examines the constitutional necessity of holding public officials accountable, asserting that no individual is above the law. Host Bradley Dean and Senator Eric Lucero discuss the mechanics of impeachment and the current legislative battles in Minnesota regarding the prioritization of citizens over non-citizens. The program emphasizes the role of "We the People" in maintaining a just society through active civic engagement and adherence to a moral, constitutional framework. The Constitutional Mandate for Accountability The foundational principle of American governance is that the law serves as a master rather than a servant to those in power. Drawing on Article II, Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution, the broadcast highlights that the President, Vice President, and all civil officers must be removed from office upon impeachment for and conviction of treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors. Historical precedents, such as the impeachment of Andrew Johnson in 1868 and the resignation of Richard Nixon, serve as reminders that resignation is often insufficient when criminal conduct has occurred; true justice requires prosecution to prevent the law from being treated as a suggestion. The host argues that the current political climate often replaces this standard with a "resign and forget" culture that insults the very laws officials are sworn to uphold. The Impeachment Framework The Charge The House of Representatives files charges of misconduct (Impeachment). The Trial The Senate acts as a court to try the case; conviction requires a 2/3 vote. The Result Removal from office and potential disqualification from future positions. Legislative Conflict and the "Lawful Status" Debate Senator Eric Lucero reports on recent developments within the Minnesota Housing Committee regarding a $66 million appropriation for rental assistance. Lucero introduced an amendment seeking to restrict these funds to individuals with "lawful status" within the United States, a proposal that was ultimately rejected by the committee. This legislative friction underscores a broader concern presented in the broadcast: that current administrations are prioritizing special interest groups and non-citizens over the taxpayers they are sworn to represent. The host characterizes this as a form of "aiding and abetting" that undermines the security and financial integrity of the state. The Moral Duty and the Legacy of Sacrifice The program bridges the gap between modern politics and historical sacrifice, referencing the hallowed grounds of Arlington Cemetery and the "gratitude" owed to those who died for American freedoms. The host argues that tolerating corruption in government is a desecration of the blood shed by veterans. By invoking the "English Common Law" and the biblical purposes of government—to condemn the wicked and justify the righteous—the broadcast calls for a rejection of the "right vs. left" paradigm. Instead, it advocates for a return to a "righteous order" where the law is applied equally to all, regardless of political affiliation or status. Three Purposes of Government Based on Deuteronomy 25:1 and Common Law principles: 1Maintain Order: To restrain men from violating moral laws. 2Condemn the Wicked: To ensure criminals face consequences. 3Justify the Righteous: To protect and uphold those who obey the law. Key Data $66 Million: The amount proposed for the general fund appropriation for rental assistance in Minnesota. $19 Billion: The upper estimate of alleged fraud mentioned in relation to current administrative oversight. 1868: The year of President Andrew Johnson's impeachment. 11 Articles: The number of articles of impeachment adapted against Andrew Johnson. To-Do / Next Steps Support the ongoing efforts to draw up and advance articles of impeachment against Tim Walz and Keith Ellison. Volunteer for active community advocacy, including door knocking and phone calling, to persuade hearts and minds before the November elections. Attend or stream the Sunday morning service at 9:00 AM Central Time focusing on fasting, prayer, and spiritual discipline. Consider partnering financially with the organization to sustain the broadcast and its outreach efforts. Conclusion The broadcast serves as a clarion call for constitutional literacy and moral courage. It posits that the survival of the Republic depends not on political parties, but on a citizenry that demands justice, honors the sacrifices of the past, and refuses to allow its representatives to live above the laws they were elected to uphold.

The story begins in 1775 with Barnaby, his Mother, and his talking Raven Grip, fleeing their home from a blackmailer, and going into hiding. Joe Willet similarly finds he must leave his home to escape his Father's ire, leaving behind the woman he loves. Five years later these characters, and many others whose lives we have followed, find themselves caught up in the horrific Protestant rioting led by Sir George Gordon. The mob which reaches 100,000 strong, gets out of hand, and there is danger to all in the path of their destruction. Charles Dickens skillfully weaves the lives of his many loving and many wicked characters through the rioting, and shows how this uprising changes so many lives. As a side note, Edgar Allan Poe is said to have been inspired by Barnaby's raven Grip when he wrote his famous poem,”The Raven”.

Sons Of Liberty Radio with Bradlee Dean Restoration of Justice: Constitutional Accountability and the Minnesota Impeachment Movement Introduction This document summarizes the February 23, 2026, broadcast of Sons of Liberty Radio, featuring host Bradley Dean and Minnesota State Representatives Pam Altendorf and Ben Davis. The discussion centers on the constitutional mandate for holding public officials accountable, specifically focusing on allegations of financial fraud, voter roll irregularities, and the formal filing of impeachment articles against high-ranking Minnesota officials. Detailed Summary of Key Themes 1. The Constitutional Framework for Impeachment The broadcast emphasizes that the U.S. Constitution provides specific mechanisms to ensure no public official remains above the law. Citing Article II, Section 4, the host argues that removal from office is mandatory upon conviction of treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors. The narrative rejects the idea that resignation is a sufficient substitute for prosecution, comparing a politician's resignation to a criminal being allowed to quit their "job" rather than facing trial. Historical precedents, including the impeachments of Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton, are used to illustrate that the House of Representatives holds the "God-given right" to charge misconduct, while the Senate serves as the court for trial. Constitutional Basis for Removal Under Article II, Section 4, the President, Vice President, and all civil officers shall be removed from office on impeachment for and conviction of: Treason Bribery High Crimes 2. Voter Integrity and the Hennepin County Dispute Representative Pam Altendorf details her efforts to verify Minnesota's voter rolls, noting that Secretary of State Steve Simon has allegedly denied access to these rolls to both federal authorities and elected state officials. Despite this, Altendorf obtained the master list for Hennepin County, which represents 20% of the state's population. She reports discovering significant "abnormalities," such as 12 individuals registered at a single one-bedroom apartment. The discussion highlights a perceived lack of transparency, where private companies like ERIC receive data while public officials are blocked from verification. 3. Allegations of Systemic Fraud and Misconduct The broadcast brings forward claims of a $19 billion fraud within the state of Minnesota, which the host asserts is being treated as "make-believe" by Governor Tim Walz. Bradley Dean argues that over 1,000 eyewitnesses have pointed to administrative oversight in this fraud, yet no indictments have followed. The host further suggests that many influential figures in Minnesota's government are "transplants" from other states, contributing to a perceived infiltration of the local political system that runs antithetical to the interests of the 5.9 million residents. Minnesota Impeachment Status Gov. Tim Walz Articles in Hand / 5 Signers AG Keith Ellison 6 Articles Proposed 4. Legislative Action: Articles Against Walz and Ellison Representative Ben Davis provides an update on the formal impeachment process. Articles against Governor Tim Walz have been retrieved from the Revisor's Office with the maximum allowed five signatures for filing. Additionally, Davis announces six articles of impeachment against Attorney General Keith Ellison. These charges stem from an alleged "quid pro quo" involving campaign donors and Ellison's public defense of individuals who disrupted a church service, which Davis characterizes as a failure to uphold his oath to protect constitutional rights. Key Data & Indicators $19 Billion: The estimated amount of alleged fraud cited by the host regarding Minnesota state oversight. 12 People: The number of registered voters found at a single one-bedroom apartment during a roll audit. 20%: The portion of Minnesota's total population residing in Hennepin County. 5 Signatures: The legal limit for initial signers on impeachment articles in the Minnesota House. 81%: The cited percentage of Americans who reportedly do not trust mainstream media. To-Do / Next Steps Contact Representatives: Citizens are encouraged to email or call their state representatives and senators to demand support for the impeachment articles. Community Organization: Residents should organize and show up in large numbers at the state capitol to protest anti-Second Amendment legislation. Voter Roll Verification: Continued pressure must be applied to the Secretary of State to allow public verification of voter rolls. Support Independent Media: Listeners are asked to partner financially with the ministry to keep the broadcast on the air. Conclusion The broadcast serves as a call to action for what is described as the "silent majority" in Minnesota. By leveraging Article II, Section 4 and Article I of the Constitution, Representatives Altendorf and Davis aim to challenge the current administration's handling of state funds and election integrity. The core message remains that "liberty is the right to do what the law permits," and justice must be actively pursued by the people to hold perverted systems accountable.

The story begins in 1775 with Barnaby, his Mother, and his talking Raven Grip, fleeing their home from a blackmailer, and going into hiding. Joe Willet similarly finds he must leave his home to escape his Father's ire, leaving behind the woman he loves. Five years later these characters, and many others whose lives we have followed, find themselves caught up in the horrific Protestant rioting led by Sir George Gordon. The mob which reaches 100,000 strong, gets out of hand, and there is danger to all in the path of their destruction. Charles Dickens skillfully weaves the lives of his many loving and many wicked characters through the rioting, and shows how this uprising changes so many lives. As a side note, Edgar Allan Poe is said to have been inspired by Barnaby's raven Grip when he wrote his famous poem,”The Raven”.

In this concluding Black History Month Episode, I provide an abbreviated sketch of the great history of the Nation of Islam under the leadership of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad with present day work happening in Camden, New Jersey.Huey P. Newton, Stokely Carmichael (Kwame Ture), Malcolm X, Muhammad Ali, Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Jesse Jackson Sr….we have heard mention of these incredible men and their contribution towards equity and justice for the Black man and woman in America.  But we learn very little, if anything at all, about the Nation of Islam (founded in 1930) and how the revolutionary ideology of ‘Self Love' and ‘Do For Self' influenced their efforts, inspired the Black Community and impacted national and international leaders alike.The Honorable Elijah Muhammad, leader of the Nation of Islam, was described by Reader's Digest as the ‘Most powerful Black man in America' and we have not seen any modern economist, sociologist, educator or psychologist impact Black people the way he did.Because of this influence, one finds in COINTELPRO (Counter Intelligence Program) documents how the FBI endeavored, through substantially illegal and unethical efforts, to ‘Prevent The Rise of A Black Messiah' amongst Black Americans who would have the power to unite and electrify them.  The federal government's efforts sought to disrupt, discredit and misdirect Black nationalist groups, including the Nation of Islam, and to neutralize them in the public sphere because, 'In unity, there is strength.' One can claim they achieved great success as so little is known and accurately understood about the Nation of Islam.This episode seeks to provide a condensed sketch of that history.To learn more about the history of the Nation of Islam visit CROE.ORG.  CROE (Coalition for Remembrance of Elijah Muhammad) serves as the National Archives of the Nation of Islam. Also, visit TEMPLE20.ORG to learn how the application of ‘Self Love' and ‘Do For Self' can impact our local communities as it is in Camden, New Jersey.If you would like to engage with the podcast, submit your listener questions to info@NurahSpeaks.com.  Listeners can also learn more by visiting NurahSpeaks.com.You can follow Nurah Speaks on X, Instagram and Facebook @NurahSpeaks and subscribe to the channel on YouTube.

In 1863 the French established a protectorate over the kingdom of Cambodia. The protectorate, along with Vietnam and Laos, later became part of the colonial state of French Indochina. Part of the French ‘civilizing mission' in Cambodia involved reforming Cambodian law and legal processes.  Sally Low's pioneering study, Colonial Law Making: Cambodia under the French (NUS Press, 2023), tells the story of the encounter between what she calls two different legal and social ‘cosmologies': Cambodia's indigenous legal tradition and modern French legal thinking. While the French claimed they were modernizing Cambodian law, in fact they imposed many elements of French law. Initially, they dispossessed the king of much of his judicial authority. But ironically, the French reform of Cambodian law retained the monarchy as the semi-divine source of law, and royal power was subsequently legally embedded into new national institutions, the law, and the constitutions. At independence in 1953, 90 years after the French began their protectorate, Cambodia's King Sihanouk inherited this legal apparatus which had done so much to enhance the power of the executive over the judiciary.

Is loyalty real in boxing — or is it just business? In this episode, Sean breaks down the shock decision by Conor Benn to leave Matchroom Boxing and sign a reported one-fight, $15 million deal with Zuffa, led by Dana White. What does this move really mean? Sean presents the facts behind the deal and examines both perspectives — from a fighter securing generational money to questions about long-term partnerships, promotional loyalty, and industry politics. We explore: The business realities of modern boxing What “loyalty” actually means in prizefighting Historical examples of fighters changing promoters Whether fighters owe promoters allegiance The risk vs reward of short-term mega deals Is this betrayal… or smart career management? A balanced, honest breakdown without emotion — just understanding the game for what it is. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

1. Claims about left‑wing funding and jury nullification Certain left‑wing or activist groups are promoting jury nullification—encouraging jurors to acquit defendants even if they believe the defendants are guilty. They cite examples from Minneapolis, focusing on activist networks promoting “jury nullification training.” The hosts frame this as part of a broader political effort they associate with progressive donors and organizations. Historical examples of jury nullification—both positive and negative—are mentioned (e.g., Fugitive Slave Act resistance, Emmett Till case). They argue that encouraging political jurors to “lie during voir dire” would undermine the justice system. 2. Discussion about prosecutors and criminal justice The speakers criticize certain district attorneys they associate with George Soros' funding efforts. They claim these DAs reduce prosecutions or lessen criminal enforcement, framing it as a method of "abolishing the police." Examples of high‑profile progressive prosecutors are mentioned across various US cities. 3. Tucker Carlson segment The hosts discuss Tucker Carlson’s recent travel to Israel, claiming he falsely stated he was detained by Israeli airport security. They reference video footage and statements attributed to Israeli authorities and the U.S. embassy that contradict Carlson's claim. The hosts criticize Carlson’s political positions, alleging: He has become hostile toward Israel. He features guests they describe as extremists. His views have shifted since leaving Fox News. 4. Aliens / UFO portion The hosts mention comments by Barack Obama and Donald Trump about unidentified aerial phenomena. Trump is quoted as saying he will direct agencies to release information about UFOs/UAPs. Senator Cruz comments on classified briefings he has seen, calling them “underwhelming,” without disclosing details. The segment ends with light‑hearted speculation and jokes about aliens.

What happens when uncertainty shakes the global economy, and investors start questioning where to put their money? In this episode, AFIRE CEO Gunnar Branson talks with Moody's Analytics Chief Economist Mark Zandi about slowing job growth, shifting trade and immigration policies, and the market volatility that has investors eyeing gold, silver, crypto, and real estate. Zandi highlights both the risks of a potential recession and the opportunities in U.S. commercial real estate, where prices have corrected significantly. The near term may present “bouts of real anxiety,” says Zandi, but in the long term, he adds, “I'm confident that we'll be fine.” LINKS Mentioned in the episode: Trump taps ex-Fed insider Warsh to lead world's top central bank https://www.reuters.com/world/us/trump-picks-former-fed-official-warsh-run-fed-2026-01-30/ To hear the globe's top experts discuss opportunities in US property markets, register for future AFIRE conferences: Summer Conference 2026 in Tokyo https://www.afire.org/events/tokyo26/ KEY MOMENTS 00:00 Introduction 00:36 Market uncertainty and investor confusion 00:56 Mark Zandi's background and perspective 02:19 Humility in today's economy 03:24 De-globalization and safe-haven assets 05:45 U.S. commercial real estate as opportunity 07:21 CRE market corrections and valuations 08:59 Relative attractiveness for international investors 10:29 Single-family rental market overview 11:54 Affordability challenges and workforce housing 14:37 Local variations and political complexity 15:16 Job growth stall and recession risk 17:33 Fed rate cuts and policy pressures 20:24 Long-term rates and equilibrium forecasts 22:22 Inflation concerns and consumer impact 25:35 AI, tech investment, and data center boom 26:42 Potential bubbles and market corrections 30:06 Long-term growth perspective for real estate 31:06 Bumps ahead: cyber events and AI oversight 32:35 Optimism: U.S. economy resilience 34:06 Historical perspective and maintaining cool heads

"72% of Americans say they hate big corporations—including Republicans." — Charles DerberIt's not just the right that's reacting against liberal democracy. Some progressives are also embracing populism. Charles Derber, longtime professor of sociology at Boston College, has a new book called Fighting Oligarchy: How Positive Populism Can Reclaim America. Rather than a dirty word, he argues, populism is an inevitable political response to the brutality of today's economy. We're in a disguised depression, he fears. Sixty percent of Americans say they feel one paycheck away from oblivion.72% of Americans say they hate big corporations, Derber reminds us. Not just Democrats—Republicans too. Such hostility to large capitalist enterprises thus represents a kind of political supermajority. And Derber, a man of the left, sees this as fertile ground for what he calls positive populism. It's a politics that connects economic grievance to democratic renewal, the way the 1890s Populists did, the way the New Deal did, the way Martin Luther King did when he insisted you couldn't fight for civil rights without fighting against war and capitalism.But can positive populism coexist with American capitalism? Derber says no. American capitalism is too oligarchic, too individualistic, too hostile to collective identity. It's not compatible with positive populism and thus, in Derber's mind at least, not compatible with survival. But that doesn't involve a Soviet-style elimination of the free market. It means something more like Northern European social democracy: strong unions, universal healthcare, a government that actually intervenes on behalf of ordinary people.The trap, Derber warns, is nostalgia for the pre-Trump era. Going back to the supposedly "consensus" years of Bush, Obama and Clinton is a circuitous way of getting to another Trump. Today's street demonstrators—from Minneapolis to Los Angeles to New York City—understand this. According to Derber, demonstrations against ICE and MAGA are associating the immigration crackdowns with corporate oligarchy, and authoritarian political power with the economic power of big capitalism.And so positive populism will prevail. At least according to Charles Derber. Fight the oligarchy! Five Takeaways●      We're in a Disguised Depression: Sixty percent of Americans say they feel one paycheck away from disaster. This isn't radical rhetoric—it's mainstream public opinion.●      Hatred of Corporations Is Bipartisan: 72-73% of Americans—including Republicans—say they hate big corporations. Derber sees this as fertile ground for positive populism.●      Positive Populism Has Precedents: The 1890s Populists united white and Black workers. The New Deal gave ordinary people a stake. MLK linked civil rights to economics. These are the models.●      Going Back to Pre-Trump Is a Trap: If Democrats return to Bush-Obama-Clinton centrism, they'll get another Trump. The resistance understands this. The establishment doesn't.●      American Capitalism Is Incompatible: Positive populism can't coexist with American-style oligarchic capitalism. It needs transformation—not elimination of markets, but European-style social democracy. About the GuestCharles Derber is a professor of sociology at Boston College and author of more than twenty books, including Fighting Oligarchy: How Positive Populism Can Reclaim America and Bonfire: American Sociocide, Broken Relationships, and the Quest for Democracy. He is an old friend of Keen on America.ReferencesPeople mentioned:●      Pepper Culpepper is an Oxford political scientist whose book Billionaire Backlash argues that backlash against billionaires could strengthen democracy.●      Hélène Landemore is a Yale political scientist whose book Politics without Politicians makes the case for direct democracy.●      William Jennings Bryan ran for President four times on a populist platform but, Derber argues, sold out the movement's anti-corporate thrust.●      Martin Luther King Jr. argued that civil rights couldn't be separated from economic justice and opposition to war—a form of positive populism.●      Bernie Sanders and AOC are examples of positive populists within the Democratic Party today.Historical references:●      The 1890s Populist Movement united farmers and workers against the first Gilded Age oligarchy. Lawrence Goodwyn called it "the democratic moment."●      The New Deal represented a form of positive populism with significant government intervention in markets and encouragement of union organizing.About Keen On AmericaNobody asks more awkward questions than the Anglo-American writer and filmmaker Andrew Keen.

What emerges is a masterclass in identifying the subtle linguistic tricks that maintain public misunderstanding about how government finance actually works. The conversation begins with Christian's astute observation about the phrase 'the government *can* create money' - a seemingly innocent statement that actually perpetuates dangerous misconceptions. As the panel explores, there's a world of difference between saying the government 'can' create money versus acknowledging that it 'does' create money with every pound it spends. This distinction matters because it allows economists and pundits to maintain outdated frameworks whilst appearing to acknowledge MMT insights. Dr Armstrong brings his characteristic clarity to explaining the consolidated view of government and central bank operations, illustrating why all government spending necessarily involves money creation. Using vivid analogies - from goldfish that must swim in water to the government's unique relationship with the Bank of England - he demonstrates why currency-issuing governments are fundamentally different from currency users like households or businesses. The discussion then tackles the politically damaging notion that governments should only 'borrow to invest'. Patricia explains why this framing misunderstands the true function of deficits whilst inadvertently supporting neoliberal arguments for privatisation. The panel reveals how this seemingly progressive talking point actually reinforces the household analogy and hands ammunition to fiscal conservatives. In his analysis of the 'public debt time bomb' narrative, Phil turns conventional wisdom on its head by pointing out that if foreign debt holdings were truly a source of power, then Britain - as the second-largest holder of US Treasury securities - would presumably have a decisive degree of control over America's economic destiny. Throughout, the conversation illuminates core MMT principles: the operational reality of government spending, the true nature of government bonds as private sector savings, and why exchange rate concerns, whilst legitimate, shouldn't drive us back to defunct fiscal rules. The panel's analysis reveals how even well-intentioned progressive economists can inadvertently perpetuate harmful misconceptions about monetary sovereignty.   =========== Key Topics with Timestamps [02:15] Introduction to the Fauxbel Prize concept[05:30] "Government can create money" vs "does create money"[12:45] The consolidated view of government and central bank[18:20] Why all government spending is money creation[25:10] "Borrowing to invest" - the progressive own goal[35:45] Historical context: Keynes and bifurcating budgets[42:30] The "Tap" system vs bond auctions[48:15] "Public debt = time bomb" narrative analysis[55:40] Exchange rate concerns and industrial policy   ========= Guest Bio Dr Phil Armstrong - Economist and author of "Can Heterodox Economics Make a Difference?".

Key Takeaways Language matters: The difference between "can" and "does" in describing government money creation shapes public understanding All government spending creates new money: Currency-issuing governments cannot spend previously collected money - every expenditure creates new money The "government borrowing to Invest" narrative is counterproductive: This framing reinforces household analogies and supports privatisation arguments A government "debt" clock is a national SAVINGS clock: Government debt represents private sector savings, not a burden Exchange rate policy needs strategy: Arbitrary fiscal rules won't address structural economic vulnerabilities   ===============   All our episodes in chronological order: https://www.patreon.com/posts/43111643   All our patron-only episodes: https://www.patreon.com/posts/57542767   Scotland's Festival of Economics (Edinburgh and online)  19th - 21st March 2026: https://www.scoteconfest.org/#learnmore   JOIN PATRICIA'S MMT ACTIVIST NETWORK (MMT UK): https://actionnetwork.org/forms/activist-registration-form   Join the MMT UK Discord server to connect with others looking to promote MMT and ecological economics in the UK!: https://discord.gg/S3UbxFe4FR   MMT: THE MOVIE!

In the early 1700s, when maps still had blank spaces and “here be dragons” felt like a reasonable warning, a stranger arrived in Europe with a fantastic story to tell. Calling himself George Psalmanazar, and claiming to be a native of far-off Formosa, where people lived in underground houses and dined on human meat. He translated scriptures into a language no one had ever heard and tutored missionaries in the customs and culture of his country. But the greatest fiction wasn't his island at all, it was Psalmanazar himself. And for a while, the world believed every dazzling word.SOURCES Psalmanazar, George (1704) An Historical & Geographical Description of Formosa. London, UK. Psalmanazar, George (1764) Memoirs of ****.

In Week 6 of our Familiar Stranger series, Pastor Jason Britt addresses a critical but often overlooked reality: the Holy Spirit is not the only spirit at work in our time. In a world saturated with noise, misinformation, and competing "truths," the gift of discernment is more vital for the believer than ever before. Drawing from 1 John 4, this message explores how to "test the spirits" to see whether they are from God. Following Jesus isn't just about rejecting obvious evil; it's about recognizing the subtle replacements, reductions, and reshapings of Jesus that permeate our modern culture. If you've felt overwhelmed by the "spirit of the age," this message will help you find confidence in the Spirit of Truth who dwells within you.

4  Guest: Arthur Herman. Herman argues that World War II victory resulted from the government setting goals while private industry determined execution. He suggests this historical partnership offers vital lessons for restoring America'slagging defense industrial base today.

2.Michael Vlahos as Germanicus joins Gaius in examining the elite obsession with Jeffrey Epstein through a historical lens of witchcraft and sorcery accusations. Gaius introduces an analogy involving Louis XIII using accusations of witchcraft to explain political assassinations, applying this framework to the modern overclass fascination with Epstein. He suggests elites cast Epstein as a sorcerer figure to absolve themselves of complicity in his crimes and their own participation in corruption. Germanicus agrees, arguing that the atheistic ruling class deploys Epstein as a fallen angel archetype, framing him as an unstoppable supernatural force of seduction so they can claim victimhood rather than confronting systemic corruption. Germanicus illustrates this dynamic with a story from The Howling about monks imprisoning the devil to prevent war, symbolizing humanity's desire to externalize evil rather than confront personal sin. The sheer volume of released Epstein files acts as contracts for sold souls, reinforcing the narrative that an external devil bears responsibility. Germanicus concludes these elites are cynical materialists who, unable to comprehend spiritual dynamics or acknowledge their own guilt, retreat to ancient superstitions to explain their entrapment and exonerate themselves from the corrupt world they lead.3.Michael Vlahos as Germanicus explores with Gaius the seventeenth-century practice of dynastic marriage as a superior geopolitical tool compared to modern warfare's impulse toward total destruction. Gaius highlights the unions connecting the Hapsburg, Bourbon, and Stuart empires, observing that the magic of resolving conflict through marriage has been lost entirely. Germanicus explains that these networks of bloodlines created a unified European sensibility and stability that limited war's severity because monarchs were cousins bound by family obligation and shared aristocratic culture. Wars remained limited affairs rather than existential struggles for national survival. Germanicus attributes the loss of this restraint to the French Revolution, which replaced aristocratic connections with religious nationalism and a Darwinian struggle for survival, culminating in the total wars of the twentieth century that devastated entire civilizations. While true dynastic geopolitics has vanished from international relations, Germanicus observes a strange egalitarian counterpart emerging in the American overclass through the nepo baby phenomenon. He argues that elite families in Hollywood and politics now pass down wealth and status across generations, mimicking aristocratic patterns without the intergenerational stability, diplomatic utility, or civilizational responsibility characteristic of Roman senatorial families or royal European houses.

Guest: John Tamny. Tamny contends that true inflation is currency devaluation rather than price increases caused by lockdowns, citing historical economic collapses in China and Germany as evidence.
