Join Pastor Matt and the team as they dive deeper into topics from the recent "Financial Squeeze" sermon series that didn't quite fit into Sunday morning. This episode focuses on biblical generosity, tithing, and God's design for our finances. In this episode, we explore the fascinating history behind "In God We Trust" on American currency, dating back to the Civil War era when a Pennsylvania pastor wrote to the Treasury Secretary suggesting this unifying phrase during our nation's most divided time. Pastor Matt addresses common questions about tithing in the New Testament era, explaining how this practice preceded the Mosaic Law and continues to be relevant for Christians today. He breaks down the principles of giving found in the New Testament and clarifies why tithing to the local church specifically matters according to biblical teaching. The conversation also covers the "Generosity Ladder" - a practical framework for growing in biblical giving, from first-time gifts to legacy giving that impacts the kingdom long-term. They discuss the four components of God-honoring giving: systematic, proportional, sacrificial, and cheerful. Finally, Pastor Matt explains Hope Church's financial stewardship practices, including budgeting, board oversight, third-party audits, and accountability measures that ensure donated funds are used wisely and transparently.

The host discusses the results of a political and legal battle for access to the federal government's databases, revealing what was hidden within the Social Security and Treasury records. The host describes the initial conflict between the newly appointed Treasury Secretary and career bureaucrats who refused to hand over passwords to the payment systems. The hosts highlight the "mind-blowing" findings, including over 275,000 illegal immigrants receiving Social Security checks, with many checks being mailed to people who have already left the country. Additionally, they reveal that 12.4 million Social Security numbers belong to individuals listed as being over 120 years old, with over 135,000 being over 160 years old. The host connects this fraud to a larger political strategy, arguing that the previous administration deliberately enabled this system to artificially inflate census numbers for redistricting and to secure future votes. The discussion concludes by connecting the findings to the resignation of key bureaucrats and the ongoing efforts to expose corruption within federal agencies.

The only person to have served as Treasury Secretary and as Federal Reserve Chair, Janet Yellen sits down to discuss interest rates, central bank independence, and the health of the U.S. economy. In a conversation with Andrew Ross Sorkin at the Aspen Economic Strategy Group Forum in Colorado, Yellen speaks candidly about President Trump's pressure on sitting Fed Chair Jay Powell, as well as the policies of her successor at the Treasury, sitting Secretary Scott Bessent.  In this episode:Andrew Ross Sorkin, @andrewrsorkinKatie Kramer, @Kramer_Katie

“Look out the window. The debts are the highest in the history of the world… and it gets worse every day,” warns legendary investor Jim Rogers in this explosive sit-down with Daniela Cambone. “Yes, we need [detox]. But when the pain starts, people say, ‘Wait a minute. I didn't know it was going to be this much pain. I want the easy way.'”Rogers, co-founder of the Quantum Fund, reflects on his former intern Scott Bessent—now U.S. Treasury Secretary—who's reportedly advocating to revalue America's gold reserves: “He knew nothing about money… he had planned to be a journalist… and look at him now.” He slams current monetary policy: “Debasing the currency… it's great for a while, but in the end we all suffer.” And on tariffs: “They are taxes. I prefer not to pay more for things.”✅ FREE RESOURCESDownload the Ultimate Decision-Making Guide on Gold & Silver plus Daniela Cambone's Top 10 Lessons to safeguard your wealth (FREE)

He challenged Thomas Jefferson, in the tumultuous Election of 1800, but his greatest rival was Jefferson's Treasury Secretary, Hamilton.After he shot and killed Hamilton, Burr's career was in shambles.

Texas is right outside my window. I live just a short drive away from the statehouse, and yet, I'm physically closer to it than most of the Texas Democratic Party right now. Because while redistricting votes are going down, they've skipped town. Some are in Chicago, some in New York, some who-knows-where. They're avoiding quorum on a vote that could give Republicans five more congressional seats in the next midterms. That might sound dramatic, but the stakes are that high. This isn't about making a point. This is about shaping the entire balance of the House.Let's set aside the tired talking points about whether gerrymandering is good or bad, or whether California and Illinois are just as guilty. I don't want to have that conversation right now. I want to talk about the Democrats in this state — the ones who keep losing, keep retreating, and somehow keep thinking that symbolic resistance is a strategy. It's not. It's performance. And worse, it signals to Texas liberals that their party isn't willing to stand and fight. Not even in the state they claim to want to flip.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Texas doesn't see itself as part of a broader movement. It sees itself as Texas. It doesn't think of itself like the South, and it sure as hell doesn't take cues from New York or Illinois. If you want to win here, you have to respect that. You have to show up and deliver for voters — on Texas terms. And skipping town because you're mad about a vote doesn't read like courage. It reads like cowardice. It says you don't believe in the fight enough to have it on home turf.Democrats did the same thing back in 2021 over a voting rights bill. They went to D.C., got tons of national media, and nothing changed. In fact, they lost ground. Their already thin hold in the statehouse got thinner. Republicans strengthened their grip. So this idea that leaving the state is some kind of protest with teeth is pure fantasy. It's been tried. It failed. And now they're doing it again — not with new tactics, not with a new message, just the same tired escape hatch.What could they have done instead? I've got an idea. Take those same 50 Democrats and spend 72 hours barnstorming the neighborhoods that are about to be gerrymandered out of blue representation. Knock doors. Shake hands. Livestream the whole thing. Go to Frisco, Plano, East Houston, McAllen, Pflugerville, the Fifth Ward, and tell people what's happening. Tell them they're losing their voice in the Texas legislature. Register voters on the spot. Raise money. Make noise. Make it impossible to ignore you because you're in Texas, not because you fled it.You want a viral image? Try getting hauled back to the Capitol in a Texas Ranger squad car. That's real drama. That's a story that cuts through. And it puts a spotlight on the very system you're protesting. But instead, we get hotel bar selfies in Albany — and no movement on the map that's about to tilt the state even further red. The public doesn't want passive resistance. They want a fight. And Texas voters — especially liberals — want to believe that their side still knows how to throw a punch.It's not enough to blame the system. You have to build a response that feels real, rooted, and local. Texas is a massive media market. It's expensive to campaign here. But if you don't make Republicans spend, if you don't at least make it look like a fight, they'll never take you seriously, and they'll never pay the price. Right now, all the Democrats have shown is that they're not even willing to lose the right way.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:02:00 - Texas00:13:46 - Update00:14:29 - Treasury Secretary 00:19:36 - Gaza00:24:36 - Moon-based Nuclear Reactor00:26:31 - Interview with Kirk Bado01:23:11 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

Donald Trump's top crypto advisor says the U.S. Bitcoin Reserve is coming “in short order.” This comes just days after the Treasury Secretary declared America will be the “Crypto Superpower of the World.” Analysts now say a $1M Bitcoin is no longer a fantasy - it's becoming inevitable. Meanwhile, ETF inflows accelerate, institutional holdings surge past $91B, and Bitcoin continues to decouple from traditional assets.

They understand the Fed's tools are blunt, its logic circular, and its credibility paper-thin. They've watched as inflation ravaged their savings while Jerome Powell told them it was “transitory.” They watched old crow Janet Yellen's medicine show run up the debt in a way so routinely incompetent that it's tough to keep track of what years she was Treasury Secretary and what years she was Fed Chair. People watched interest rates jerked around like marionette strings and bond markets twisted into grotesque shapes by $9 trillion on the Fed's balance sheet.

In the first half, we look at the OBBBA, and what its passage may mean for investors, as well as for the government's balance sheet. Debt from baseline projection of 154% of GDP to upwards of 200% of GDP with the OBBBA. Deficits from around 6% of GDP to over 7% with the OBBBA. Despite the ballooning deficits and debt, markets are celebrating the prospect of fiscal stimulus, as well as favorable tax treatments on investment as well as other corporate goodies. In the second half, we discuss President Trump's penmanship as it relates to his letter to Chair Powell on interest rates and why the “hottest country in the world” should “LOWER THE RATE!!!” We also look at the risk associated with the loss of Fed independence due to either political pressure or a dual role for the Treasury Secretary. At some point, we finally get around to talking about the stock market, and note the historic rebound in equities in Q2, which was the largest in record by some measures. The biggest winners were growth stocks, which led value by a wider margin than during the tech bubble, and retail favorites, which are often highly speculative names; these soared over 60% in Q2. We also look at the expectations embedded in markets at this point in terms of earnings and multiples, and what effect passive investing is having on markets as over half of U.S. fund assets are now passively invested.

In conservative economics, cuts to social services are often seen as necessary to shrink the expanding deficit. Donald Trump's budget bill is something altogether different: it cuts Medicaid while slashing tax rates for the wealthiest Americans, adding $6 trillion to the national debt, according to the Cato Institute. Janet Yellen, a former Treasury Secretary and former chair of the Federal Reserve, sees severe impacts in store for average Americans: “What this is going to do is to raise interest rates even more. And so housing will become less affordable, car loans less affordable,” she tells David Remnick. “This bill also contains changes that raise the burdens of anyone who has already taken on student debt. And with higher interest rates, further education—college [and] professional school—becomes less affordable. It may also curtail investment spending, which has a negative impact on growth.” This, she believes, is why the President is desperate to lower interest rates; he has spoken of firing his appointed chair of the Federal Reserve, Jerome Powell, whom he has called a “numbskull” and a “stupid person,” and installing a more compliant chair. But lowering interest rates to further political goals, Yellen says, “are the words one expects from the head of a banana republic that is about to start printing money to fund fiscal deficits. … And then you get very high inflation or hyperinflation.” Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

Glasser noted in her latest column in The New Yorker, after the passage of a deficit-exploding Republican budget. Millions of people will lose access to Medicaid—a fact that the President lies about directly—and many trillions of dollars will be added to the deficit. Interest payments on the federal debt will skyrocket, and Trump is so desperate for lower interest rates that he seems poised to fire his own chair of the Federal Reserve and install a compliant partisan to head the heretofore independent central bank. “Anybody panicking about that in Washington?” David Remnick asks Glasser. “I think we are the boiled frog,” she replies. “We are almost panic-immune at this point, in the same way that Donald Trump has, I think, inoculated much of America against facts in our political debate. Even inside of Washington, there's so many individual crises at one time it's very very hard in Trump 2.0 to focus on any one of them.”

Asian equities were set to climb Friday following fresh highs for US stocks as strong jobs data eased concerns the economy slowing down. Treasuries fell and the dollar rose Thursday in a sign traders see less pressure on the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates after US jobs growth exceeded expectations in June. Swap traders saw almost no chance of a July Fed cut, compared with a roughly 25% probability seen before the data. The chance of a move in September ebbed to about 70%. We get reaction from Rob Haworth, Senior Vice President and Senior Investment Strategy Director at U.S. Bank Asset Management Group.

Lawrence H. Summers, former U.S. Treasury Secretary and President Emeritus of Harvard University, has seen the ups and downs of the American economy throughout the decades. As leaders today contend with fears of economic downturn, the growth of artificial intelligence, tariffs, inflation and more, he shares what he thinks we should—and shouldn't—be worried about. He also discusses how he believes businesses can create stability through macroeconomic uncertainty, and how coming technological and economic forces will shift the labor market, policy agendas, and more.

And for tonight's Final Jeopardy question in the category of alcoholic beverages, the clue is this…which U.S. government official would ultimately be responsible for nutrition labeling rules involving alcohol producers? If you answered, “what is the Treasury Secretary,” you'd be correct! And that's because oddly enough…the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau sits under the Department of the Treasury. So, when consumer advocacy groups lobby for nutritional transparency, such as making a Nutrition Facts panel standard on all alcohol products, they're usually talking to bankers and not public health professionals. And if this topic of alcohol nutrition labels sounds vaguely familiar, within one of my earliest YouTube videos from mid-2019, I examined a “marketing-driven transparency decision” by Bud Light…concluding that “the change in transparency would ultimately a win for beer drinkers but wouldn't change the brand's sales materially.”

While Andrew Jackson dismantled the Second Bank of the United States by withdrawing federal funds and vetoing its recharter, the Federal Reserve is a far more complex and entrenched institution, created by the Federal Reserve Act of 1913 with a perpetual charter.     Potential Steps Trump Could Take   Trump could work with Congressional allies to draft a bill transferring key Fed functions (e.g., monetary policy, bank supervision) to the Treasury. This might involve creating a new Treasury division or empowering the Treasury Secretary to oversee interest rates and money supply. Frame the Narrative: Like Jackson, Trump could rally public support by portraying the Fed as an elitist institution that prioritizes Wall Street over Main Street. He could argue that placing monetary policy under the Treasury ensures democratic accountability. Leverage Political Capital: With Republican control of Congress, Trump could prioritize this agenda, using budget negotiations or debt ceiling talks to pressure lawmakers. However, he'd need to overcome resistance from moderates and filibuster threats in the Senate. Historical Precedent: Before the Fed, the Treasury managed some banking functions (e.g., under the Independent Treasury System post-1836). Trump could cite this as a viable model, though it was abandoned due to inefficiencies. Executive Actions to Increase Treasury Influence:   Trump could nominate a Treasury Secretary and Fed governors who support closer alignment between the two entities. While the Fed chair cannot be fired mid-term without cause, Trump could appoint a like-minded chair when the current term ends (e.g., Jerome Powell's term as chair expires in 2026).  Trump could issue orders directing the Treasury to study or assume certain Fed roles (e.g., payment systems or debt management). While symbolic, such moves could signal intent and pressure Congress. Treasury-Fed Coordination: Trump could push for formal agreements (e.g., a revised Treasury-Fed Accord, like the 1951 agreement) to give the Treasury more say in monetary policy, short of full control.

Treasury Secretary reveals how the government plans to use property owners' wealth to address America's $37 trillion debt. The proposed strategy involves inflating asset prices, which leads to higher property taxes and capital gains taxes, ultimately using citizens' property to stabilize debt-to-GDP ratios. The episode outlines four methods the government might use: the inflation tax, assessment traps, forced sales, and leveraging mortgages. It also offers strategies to hedge against these potential risks, such as challenging property tax assessments, maximizing homestead exemptions, investing in rental properties, securing cheap debt, and leveraging inflation to reduce debt. The episode emphasizes the importance of real estate investment and diversification into assets like gold and Bitcoin to protect oneself from financial exploitation by the state.
