If you control a person’s money, you can control their behavior. The book of Revelation speaks of a time when you will not be able to buy or sell without the mark of the beast. How is that possible? We are closer than you think. Right now, 113 nations — including America — are either researching, developing, or already have launched a virtual, programmable, government-run currency! This is shocking but true. We must act before it’s too late! — Mat

The ability to buy and sell is fundamental to freedom. Karl Marx discovered that if he could control a person’s possessions, he could control the person. Marx demanded the “centralization of credit in the hands of the State, by means of a national bank with State capital and an exclusive monopoly.”
Now our government and about 113 other governments are working to make virtual money for use on a global level. Like Marx, modern-day tyrants are working to control you. To accomplish this, globalists are seeking to eliminate tangible currency and local bank accounts by replacing them with programmable, virtual “digital dollars,” issued by government-run central banks directly to consumers.
Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) are programmable, virtual, digital dollars being developed to control you.
A CBDC allows the government to know everything about your spending habits, your savings, and eventually even your possessions. It will allow governments to force buying or veto buying certain items, like guns, ammunition, gas, gas stoves, or even plastic straws. And if you do not “voluntarily” comply, the government can punish you with just the click of a button. A CBDC will even allow political “equity” agendas to skim value off the top of your dollar and shift your money — automatically — to someone else with a different skin color, gender, or gender claim.
“The potential expansion of the money supply, and the Fed gaining new powers by stepping into the commercial banking/government transferor/collection agency role, is most concerning if not completely terrifying,” says Robert Aro of economic think tank Mises Institute.
Once the government is your bank, not only can it spy on your every financial transaction without a warrant or due process, but it can also control your money, and, thereby, your actions.
Three bills pending in Congress will provide the safeguards we desperately need. Ask Congress to VOTE YES on S 887!
In 2022, the Federal Reserve issued a report entitled “Money and Payments: The U.S. Dollar in the Age of Digital Information.” In it, the Fed argues that “A widely available CBDC would serve as a close — or, in the case of an interest-bearing CBDC, near-perfect — substitute for commercial bank money.”
The government wants to become your bank, eliminating the “competition” of your local banker and ending your ability to use cold hard cash. According to economist Robert Murphy, “If average Americans hold bank accounts directly with the Fed, its control over their lives would be nearly absolute, particularly if cash is phased out.”
But this control is not just the Feds, it would extend to climate alarmists like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. If she has her way, the Fed could use your own money to punish or reward to ensure you abide by “woke” dictates.
If greenies feel you have used too many “fossil fuels” this month, they could simply block your ability to pay for gasoline. You could be forced to pay a higher interest rate on your mortgage or car loan — not because of poor financial credit, but because of poor “social credit.” Communist China enacts this very form of tyranny now … and some in the current administration and Deep State are trying to enact this as well.
This is no way to live! Urge Congress to VOTE YES on S 887 to protect Americans from this administration’s grab for our money!
+ + This is already happening within America ...
What we are warning you about is the government's ability to assign you a fraction of your actual money. This is not fear mongering. It is already underway.
On December 22, 2022, the Boston Federal Reserve, in collaboration with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), finished testing the first American prototype for a CBDC. Called “Project Hamilton,” the program was named for America’s first Treasury secretary, Alexander Hamilton.
Hamilton was the key leader behind America’s first central bank and even today we are experiencing the concerning impact of this. By buying up Revolutionary War debts, Hamilton’s scheme became reality, and the First Bank of the United States was born. The federal government controlled the states via their debt and the money states would be allowed to use.
Fast-forward, and Hamilton's plan could hardly have worked better. When the government is in control, it has the power to dictate exactly what you can and cannot do, what you will or will not own, and even where you can be! Tell Congress, we must stop CBDCs.
People in the U.S. and around the world suffered under the tyranny of the COVID. We helped people who were fired, kicked out of their homes, jailed, bankrupted, and much more. We cannot give these same tyrants the keys to inflict more damage. We need YOU to help us finish the fight.
