Introduction [0:00]
Canadian Prepper introduces Katherine Austin Fitz, a former government official and investment banker, to discuss the digital control grid, hidden infrastructure, and the Middle East crisis. Fitz expresses her appreciation for the channel's practical and useful information. The conversation aims to explore the control grid and its implications for individual freedom and global power structures.
The Digital Control Grid [2:27]
Katherine Austin Fitz defines the digital control grid as a system using digital technology and telecommunications to create complete 24/7 surveillance. This system uses gathered intelligence to control people's behavior and spatial movements through "carrots and sticks." Examples include turning off a car or electricity if someone goes beyond a 15-minute radius from their home or restricting money usage to a certain perimeter, essentially creating an open-air prison or "panopticon."
Programmable Money [4:02]
Programmable money embeds controls within the currency itself, allowing manipulation based on AI tracking and surveillance. Unlike regular digital money, programmable money can enforce rules tailored to individuals, dictating what they can do, where they can go, and how they can live. Examples include turning off someone's money if they don't comply with healthcare prescriptions or agree to send their children to government boarding schools, creating a form of slavery through invasive control.
Operationalizing Control [5:48]
Programmable money can enforce geo-fencing, restricting spending to specific locations like a 15-minute city. Movement outside these zones could result in money being turned off or cars being disabled. This system could evolve into a multi-tiered loyalty system, but Fitz argues it signifies the end of currency as it becomes a rule system with credits that can be earned or taken away based on behavior. This system allows bankers to directly control monetary and fiscal policy, eliminating the need for elected representatives.
The Urgency of the Situation [8:33]
The implementation of the digital control grid is imminent, with laws and systems being put in place to enable it. Actions to prevent this need to be taken within the next two years. Stable coins and distributed ledger technology are key components, with BlackRock planning to move all stocks and bonds onto a distributed ledger. The Genius Act and Clarity Act are legislative efforts to create pipelines for implementing detailed rule systems through stable coins and digital tokens. The goal is to make the entire financial system programmable, requiring massive data collection and calculations.
Financialization and Stable Coins [12:07]
Fitz expresses uncertainty about the operational linkages of digital tokens to underlying assets like stocks. She notes plans for a new market of digital tokens traded 24/7 with massive margin and leverage, potentially creating a financial bubble larger than any seen before. Stable coins, a type of crypto invested in short-term treasury bills, could suck money out of local banks and move it into the treasury market, financing the war machine and imploding small business and farm economies.
The Driving Force Behind the Control Grid [15:20]
The bankers are driving the move to take over fiscal policy, believing the current balance of power between fiscal control by elected representatives and monetary control by bankers doesn't work. The Bank of International Settlements has been working to re-engineer transaction systems using digital technology for over a decade, including central bank digital currencies (CBDCs). Due to pushback against CBDCs, a public-private partnership is being pursued where banks issue stable coins and digital tokens, with the rule system piped in through the Treasury. Jeffrey Epstein played a critical role in prototyping and financing the distributed ledger technology needed for this system, acting as an agent for the Rothschild network.
Is the System Inherently Nefarious? [19:50]
Fitz believes the natural evolution of technology should empower the small guy, fostering bottom-up innovation. However, the current system is tightly controlled, suppressing success outside established lanes. The goal is to improve central control through technology. She references Tim Woo's "The Master Switch," describing the history of information technology consolidating power over time. The emergence of AI supercharges these systems, potentially granting godlike powers of surveillance, but its controllability remains uncertain. Fitz believes this is a spiritual war between the demonic and the divine, influencing how AI will be used.
The Iran Situation and the "Going Direct Reset" [24:14]
Fitz suggests the attack on global energy infrastructure is "COVID 2.0," destroying demand by shutting down energy and inducing a major recession or depression. She references the "going direct reset," a plan reviewed by central banks in 2019 to cancel currency and move to a financial transaction system using programmable money. This reset aims to consolidate control and requires states to implement guard rails on programmable money to protect basic rights and freedoms.
Channel Wars and the Motivation Behind the Iran War [29:02]
Fitz believes the central motivation behind the Iran war is to stop leakage from the central banker's model. Iran's energy and intellectual independence, combined with its refusal to play ball in the current system, poses a threat. The conflict is a channel war, aiming to ensure resources flow through the Anglo-American alliance's channels. She uses the analogy of the Iron Bank in "Game of Thrones," where the bank always wins regardless of which faction prevails in the war.
The Underground Bunker Network [41:06]
Fitz clarifies that she did not say 21 trillion dollars went to underground bases, but rather concluded that it didn't. She and a researcher systematically looked at underground bases to estimate how much was spent on them. While there are publicly disclosed underground bases for continuity of government, they also collected allegations from whistleblowers and researchers. They estimated at least 170 underground bases in the United States, but don't believe they represent a major portion of the missing 21 trillion. Maintaining secrecy around these bases is very expensive.
Secrecy and Personal Safety [46:37]
Fitz discusses the millions of people involved in black budget and secret projects. She references an interview on the Solari Report with a former Department of Justice attorney about how secrecy is engineered. During litigation, Fitz was poisoned eight times, had her house broken into, and was run off the road. She emphasizes the importance of attracting spiritual protection, as there aren't enough resources to protect oneself against the "bad guys." She notes that government operations are highly compartmentalized.
Resisting the Control Grid [56:07]
Fitz recommends "Coming Clean," a PDF available on Solari Report, which advises cutting off energy to the "parasite" by making lifestyle choices that strengthen oneself. This includes using cash, being discerning about digital technology, and avoiding neuro warfare. She identifies porn as a major delivery mechanism for neuro warfare, delivering entrainment technology and subliminal programming designed to get people addicted. Despite the challenges, Fitz remains optimistic, believing that tyranny always looks hopeless before freedom wins. She believes the control grid will defeat itself because it's out of alignment with the fundamental nature of life.
