It's a two movie 🍿 night. 🥳🎉 We're now about to watch "The Company You Keep" 🧡👍 https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1381404/ Movie description: Jim Grant, a member of an anti-Vietnam War militant group, is accused of bank robbery. He works as an attorney in New York and has eluded the FBI for 30 years. Then, a young reporter exposes him.

Good film and 🧡👍

Watching the Stockholm Bloodbath movie 🎥 tonight. So far, looks good. 👍 https://www.imdb.com/title/tt18163814/ Movie summary: Anne and Freja seek revenge on the men who murdered their family. They end up in Stockholm, where they are drawn into a political power struggle between Sweden and Denmark which culminates in a mass execution.

Still listening to 🤣🧡 https://youtu.be/Xqp5VKhzgrY YouTube video description: Politicians Are "Paid-for-Rent Prostitutes": The True Mechanics of Power | Simon Dixon on The James Delingpole Channel w/ James Delingpole On 7 July 2026, I sat down for a 2-hour interview with James Delingpole on The James Delingpole Channel for an episode titled "Politicians Are 'Paid-for-Rent Prostitutes': The True Mechanics of Power". In this discussion, I outline my belief that modern nation-states are allegedly subordinate to the Financial Industrial Complex (FIC), the Military Industrial Complex (MIC), and the rapidly emerging Technical Industrial Complex (TIC). I share my macro-analysis on how this network of institutions allegedly controls governments by socializing economic losses while privatizing the gains through central banks and fiat debt markets. We explore the broader implications of global financial restructuring, including the shifting geopolitical landscape, the engineering of strategic tensions to fund highly profitable "forever wars," and the potential transition toward a technocratic surveillance grid powered by artificial intelligence. James and I also reflect on our shared skepticism of official histories; he discusses his personal epiphany regarding mainstream media corruption, detailing how psychological operations and algorithmic divide-and-conquer tactics are allegedly used to marginalize dissenters and manufacture civil unrest. For investors, savers, entrepreneurs, and Bitcoin holders, understanding these hidden structures of power is critical to securing the future of your money. In my opinion, the ultimate defense against a corrupt, surveilled banking system is achieving true financial sovereignty. I detail why I believe Bitcoin was originally designed as a necessary breakaway project to circumvent institutional control, and why Wall Street's push for ETFs is allegedly a deliberate attempt to centralize and paperize the cryptocurrency just as they did with gold. By boycotting mainstream institutional investment vehicles and embracing the self-custody of hard assets outside of the legacy financial system, I believe you can successfully transition from a state of debt-ridden subordination to individual autonomy. This episode provides an authoritative, insight-driven framework for navigating the current economic reset and building generational wealth outside of the complexes' reach. About James Delingpole James Delingpole is an independent podcaster, author, and former mainstream media journalist. During his career in traditional media, he wrote comment pieces for publications such as the Mail on Sunday and the Telegraph, and held a regular column in The Spectator. He is also the author of the 2012 book Watermelons, which details his skeptical views on man-made climate change and the "climategate" controversy. Delingpole later transitioned away from mainstream journalism to establish his own independent media platform. He currently hosts The Delingpod on The James Delingpole Channel, a podcast where he interviews guests on various topics including alternative history, finance, and global power structures. Additionally, he has publicly shared that he was an early adopter of cryptocurrency, having first purchased Bitcoin when it was trading at approximately $300.

Politicians Are “Paid-for-Rent Prostitutes”. Isn't that the truth. 🤣😂👍 Listening to https://youtu.be/Nf5KD2ZYmgQ YouTube video description: Hey hey sovereign wealth builders, This week delivered a convergence of many structural shifts, alongside some urgent breaking news in the Bitcoin self-custody space. The Fed held rates while delivering a hawkish tone, which sent Treasury yields surging and triggered a severe AI stock sell-off, liquidating an over-leveraged $25 billion AI infrastructure hedge fund. Meanwhile, Bitcoin decoupled from the AI equities correction, and geopolitically, the Middle East continues its strategic realignment as the U.S. footprint adjusts. I believe we are witnessing the shift from the forever war model toward a financially driven regional framework. All of this demands a closer look, and we will unpack exactly what it means for your sovereign wealth plan in today's livestream. The AI Sell-Off, Bitcoin Wallet Hacks & Global Realignment | Simon Dixon Hard Talk LIVE PART ONE: AI Unwinds, Bitcoin Decides & the Middle East Realigns In the live show, I will be breaking down the mechanics behind this week's AI market correction. In the aftermath of the leveraged hedge fund liquidation, institutional players like Citadel stepped in to scoop up distressed assets, including shares of the newly public Celsius spin-off, Ionic Digital. I believe we must ask whether this is simply a short-term leverage unwind, a market-making operation, or a fundamental accumulation of AI infrastructure by the Financial Industrial Complex. In the geopolitical arena, we are tracking the ongoing realignment in the Middle East following Netanyahu's White House visit. In my view, we are witnessing the dismantling of proxy militant groups to pave the way for a new regional security framework, driven by Gulf capital and Chinese energy security. I will explain why the maritime chokepoints of Hormuz and Bab al-Mandab are the key indicators to watch as the Financial Industrial Complex (FIC) negotiates with the Military Industrial Complex (MIC). Breaking News: I will also be dedicating a segment to the recent Bitcoin wallet hacks, which is an urgent matter for those utilizing hardware wallets. A specific seed generation entropy flaw has compromised certain Coldcard wallets. I want to be entirely clear: Bitcoin did not get hacked; this is a specific hardware implementation issue. I will explain exactly what happened, who is affected, and the concrete steps you must take to review your self-custody setup calmly and safely—including updating firmware, understanding key generation, and considering multi-signature setups. We will also cover the approaching BIP110 signaling deadline around August 7th and what to watch for and what happens if miners reach the 55% threshold. PART TWO: Politicians Are “Paid-for-Rent Prostitutes”: The True Mechanics of Power | Simon Dixon on The James Delingpole Channel with James Delingpole Immediately following Part One, we will be premiering a pre-recorded interview I did with media veteran James Delingpole on 7 July 2026. Please note: This interview is scheduled to premiere as a separate video on my YouTube channel. You will need to click the link provided in the newsletter, the live chat, or on the image of Part Two to jump over to the interview once the livestream ends. During this conversation, I detail my framework for understanding the Financial Industrial Complex (FIC), the Military Industrial Complex (MIC), and the rising Technical Industrial Complex (TIC). We explore the mechanisms of how politicians are groomed, compromised, and ultimately serve as "paid-for-rent prostitutes" for these transnational power structures. We also discuss the historical evolution of central banking, the true agenda behind the programmable surveillance state, and why building wealth outside the system is the only viable way to protect yourself and step off the spectrum of subordination.

Bought a Kindle copy of Sarah Wilson's book titled "I Eat the Stars: How to Live Fully and Beautifully in a Collapsing World". Looking forward to reading it. 🧡

On the full moon night my husband and I heard an owl 🦉 in our front yard. Haven't heard one in a long time. 👍 I distorted visuals and just saved sound on this video of the owl's call. We couldn't see it anyhow, so deliberately made video file small. 🧡
