Introduced by the increasingly repressive Georgian Dream party, the bill is part of a broader effort (including the controversial foreign agents law passed in 2024) designed to silence dissent and dismantle pro-democracy groups. Rights groups warn these laws will cripple civil society by cutting funding and imposing heavy fines for violators. Last week, parliament also read a bill that would grant officials the power to ban opposition parties entirely. With civil society financially repressed, Georgia is sliding further into tyranny, where free expression, political opposition, and grassroots organizations are under siege.

Tom welcomes back Nick Giambruno, founder of The Financial Underground and editor-in-chief of its premium investment research publication. Nick criticizes central planning and the Fed's role in managing inflation, arguing that central banks, cannot effectively manage interest rates due to their antithesis to free markets. Giambruno deemed the steepest rate-hiking cycle by the Fed to combat decades-high inflation futile because raising rates to a level impacting inflation would bankrupt the US government. He considers claims of victory over inflation propaganda, as essential prices like electricity bills and food hadn't reached pre-pandemic levels. Nick touches on the potential politicization of Federal Reserve monetary policy ahead of elections and the influence of politics on its actions. The discussion covers escalating debt and interest expenses, now the largest federal budget item, trapping the United States in a cycle of currency debasement. Giambruno advises investing in hard assets like gold and precious metals as a long-term savings vehicle, and suggests considering gold mining stocks to speculate on fiat currency debasement. He favors royalty companies over individual mining stocks due to reduced risk. The potential impact of the BRICS creating their own trading currency on the US dollar and the changing global order was discussed, suggesting a developing multipolar world where other countries take larger roles. Giambruno believs we are in a chaotic period, likening it to historical periods of power division, and advises individuals to consider alternatives like Latin America as a potential refuge.

I had a very fruitful and enjoyable discussion with Kim Iversen on the Kim Iversen Show a week or so ago, so I invited Kim onto the ol' Tom Woods Show. Kim would have described herself as a progressive before the Covid fiasco, but the government response and the groupthink, along with other lingering issues, pushed her out. Sponsor: Hillsdale College is offering 40+ free self-paced courses on topics of great importance. I recommend "CS Lewis on Christianity," where you'll examine some of Lewis' classic works, including Mere Christianity, The Screwtape Letters, The Abolition of Man, to see what Lewis had to say about Scripture, prayer, suffering, joy, heaven, and hell.

Tom welcomes back Nick Giambruno, founder of The Financial Underground and Editor-in-Chief of the Contra Speculator. In this eye-opening discussion, Nick Giambruno exposes the truth behind the banking system and challenges the common misconception that the money in your bank account belongs to you. Through a detailed analysis, he reveals the legal and financial realities that make you an unsecured creditor of the bank, rather than a rightful owner of your funds. Discover the shocking implications of this arrangement and how it places you at the mercy of the banking establishment. Brace yourself for a paradigm-shifting perspective on your hard-earned money. Cautioning on the potential fallout of an escalating interest expense on federal debt, Giambruno expresses worries over the Federal Reserve's continued interest rate hikes. Massive interest payments could lead to the federal government's bankruptcy. Borrowing money to service existing debt means mounting, potentially catastrophic, debt levels. He expresses skepticism over Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), viewing them as a desperate rescue attempt for the failing fiat system. In contrast, he sees Bitcoin as a formidable central bank competitor. Discussing the geopolitical scenario, Giambruno expresses concern over the increased US expulsion from the Middle East and the likelihood of escalating conflicts. This situation, he posits, could affect oil-related equities. From his base in Argentina, he observes the anticipated presidency of Javier Milei, who may refrain from dollarization to maintain sovereignty and could transition towards a free market currency system. Nevertheless, he points out that this is a challenging transformation requiring an extensive overhaul of the existing system.

It's easy to take a revisionist view of our initial attitudes toward the COVID-19 lockdowns now that several years have passed and the initial fog of confusion has been replaced by a series of increasingly inconvenient facts for the COVID-authoritarians. But Matt Kibbe's guest this week has had the courage not only to revisit his former views but even to publish them! Tom Woods is the host of “The Tom Woods Show” and author of “Diary of a Psychosis: How Public Health Disgraced Itself During COVID Mania.” Woods catalogues how, as the pandemic progressed, the folly and foolishness of lockdowns became ever more clear as public health officials backtracked, contradicted themselves, and made a series of entirely arbitrary recommendations with no basis in science or sound policy.
No matter what happens around the world, the state has a narrative that benefits its objectives at the expense of some victim(s). Keith Knight does such a good job of demonstrating this that I just had to play more from his interview on the Tom Woods Show. He points out how the state makes bad decision after bad decision and offloads the consequences to Americans. At the same time, constantly criticizing the markets because it produces a victim here or there that they can exploit and point to as a "market failure". It's an effective racket! They say government is better because you get to vote. But when have you been able to point to a time when voting created some positive outcome. Let me help you here...NEVER!

Tom welcomes back Nick Giambruno, founder of The Financial Underground and Editor-in-Chief of the Contra Speculator. Nick notes that the current U.S. world order is breaking down, and the future remains uncertain. He compares governments to crime families and points out that bonds are just an extension of the fiat system. He goes on to emphasize that money is a technology used to send value across time and space, and that government involvement in the monetary system is unnecessary. He adds that only a small subset of the population understand the importance of hard money, and that politicians often don't understand money either, which leads to inflationary tendencies. Regarding the move towards CBDC's, Nick believes it is more of a desperate last move to maintain the status quo. He explains that the definition of inflation has been manipulated and that the CPI metrics are more akin to propaganda. As such, people will need to find alternative places to store their wealth; gold, Bitcoin, and real estate being potential options. Nick explains that both gold and Bitcoin have resistance to debasement, gold having a long history of 5000 years and Bitcoin having coded annual production that declines. He adds that while gold has portability, Bitcoin is superior in that regard. All in all, Nick believes that both gold and Bitcoin will compete with each other on their monetary attributes in the long-term.
