"Banks are highly regulated public-private partnerships in an environment where new charters are excruciatingly hard to obtain, and as such remain de facto arms of the state. It has been and remains trivial to deputize them to carry out political objectives. If there was any doubt, it’s now evident that the Obama administration and its successor in Biden’s regime are comfortable circumventing the First Amendment by engaging nominally private companies to do their dirty work." — Nic Carter
Today we take a look at the extra-judicial attack happening to the Bitcoin and Crypto space, an attempt to use the controlling, centralized financial system to remove the rights of the politically unfavorable. Operation Choke Point is back in full swing, and now has its crosshairs on crypto. What does this mean, where might things be heading, and what can we do about it? All this and more in today's episode, with a lengthy "Guy's Rant" to follow," enjoy! XD
