Tucker Carlson went there tonight — Tucker told his audience if people don’t start making lots of noise we’re going to see a government controlled digital currency.
Tucker Carlson opened his show on Monday by discussing the banking crisis in the country today.
On Monday morning trading was halted on 20 banks as the markets opened. The New York Stock Exchange halted trading at Charles Schwab.
Tonight Tucker Carlson went there – pointing out that the federal government gained power after bailing out the Silicon Valley Bank. Tucker also warned that this banking crisis could lead to a national digital currency. This is something the government and Federal Reserve have been working on. It also would allow the government to control you money, income and personal behavior. It would likely mean a further crackdown on conservatives, Trump supporters, Christians, and Pro-Life Americans.
Tucker Carlson: You have to ask yourself, what are they going to do this time? Well, we know we’re about to see bank consolidation. Big banks eating little banks. And that means less competition. More consolidation means more government control. So what are they going to do with that control? Well, all things being equal, if people don’t start making a lot of noise and exerting an awful lot of pressure, it’ll mean digital currency, a currency that politicians control… You think that’s not coming? Of course it’s coming. They’d like it to come…
…You’ve got a deposit at a regional bank that’s holding tons, way more than you know, of long term treasuries that are worth a lot less than they were when the bank bought them. That means that bank is at risk. That means your money is at risk. But Senator Mark Kelly of Arizona doesn’t want you to know about that. Why wouldn’t they want you to know? That kind of interesting. That kind of censorship could actually crush people. So we have to ask the obvious question how close are we to some sort of disaster?

This crisis to not be wasted will be an excuse for a digital currency. I would say “bank on it” but that wouldn’t be very funny.
The EO has already been signed by Biden. I don’t recall the number of the order.
They do these laws and orders in secret. How are we to protest it if it’s already been done?
how does digital currency solve the problem?
Like I believe Tucker - Once again he will give in to the dems. Schumer got anything to deny Tucker the ability to tell the truth?
It doesn’t. But it does give the government total control over you.
It doesn’t solve the problem. It just gives them control.
We are the (neo) Marxists now.
This is a generated crisis, remember they have the answers and the answer to this deliberate act is “digital currency” so they can keep an eye on your investments and banking actions and a “Canada” style rule over whether you eat or die
It has absolutely nothing to do with the current bank issues but Tucker knows it's a hot-button term with the conspiratorial base so he's pimping it.
It's funny how so many people who receive and spend 95% of their money digitally get worked up about a "digital currency"

You can ALWAYS be counted on to tout the big government line...
I see “Help Wanted” postings in my area for small businesses and fast food joints that offer to pay their staff at the end of every day in order to entice them to work.
These people aren’t going to be accepting any kind of “digital currency” to work. They’ll demand cash or hard goods in exchange for their labor — like, “I’ll work for two hours if you fill my car with gas, three more hours if you give me a week’s worth of groceries,” etc.

People can bitch all they want. It’s not going to change what’s coming.
Is Tucker just getting hip to bank consolidation? Way to be 40 years late to the party.
I’ve been hearing ads like this on mostly conservative talk shows since the tea party movement and there is no way to buy that without getting ripped off.
