Good morning, LG!

Catturd nails it, as usual.

Here’s RFK Jr. about central bank digital currency:

The Fed just announced it will introduce its “FedNow” Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) in July. CBDCs grease the slippery slope to financial slavery and political tyranny.

While cash transactions are anonymous, a #CBDC will allow the government to surveil all our private financial affairs. The central bank will have the power to enforce dollar limits on our transactions restricting where you can send money, where you can spend it, and when money expires.

A CBDC tied to digital ID and social credit score will allow the government to freeze your assets or limit your spending to approved vendors if you fail to comply with arbitrary diktats, i.e. vaccine mandates.

The Fed will initially limit its CBDC to interbank transactions but we should not be blind to the obvious danger that this is the first step in banning and seizing bitcoin as the Treasury did with gold 90 years ago today in 1933.

Watch as governments, which never let a good crisis go to waste, use Covid-19 and the banking crisis to usher in a new wave of CBDCs as a safe haven from germ-laden paper currencies or as protection against bank runs.

My girls will not be buying Nike merchandise. This is an insult to all girls and women. We need real female role models. These work marketing companies don’t know their customers.

Nike is the latest mega corporation to make Dylan Mulvaney, a biological man, their female brand ambassador.

These companies are spitting in the faces of women every single day.

Stop giving them your money.

The Democrat debates might actually be pretty interesting.
