The article is very lengthy but extremely informative providing the purpose and scope of what “central bank digital currency” would mean to this country. FTA: “The U.S. Treasury has set the financial system on an almost irreversible path to a U.S. Central Bank Digital Currency.” Thereafter, emphasizing his concern about CBDC and its impact on this country, Sundance provides a video of President Trump’s remarks in New Hampshire stating “he would never allow the creation of a central bank digital currency.” The article is worth reading.

So a few billion people will all use the same bank with only a card to record transactions. What could go wrong?

We had two week-long power outages in recent years. Stores were operating by candle light and accepting cash only, with little change available. Cards were worthless. With the stress on the power grid caused by EVs, I expect plenty more. Digital currency is a bad idea on so many levels.

FTA, per Sundance: 'Whenever the U.S. govt says they’re “undecided,” pay close attention.' IMHO, whenever the govt. says that, they have already concluded to do what's worst for the American People...and best for themselves. But they don't want you to know until it's a done deal.

It appears that it would be in China's long-term interest to help Trump get elected. His policies to isolate China in trade and not maintain the US reserve currency status with CDBC play into their goals of becoming the dominant world power.

New York Attorney General Letitia James reportedly has three ways to collect $454 million if former President Donald Trump does not post a bond to cover a civil fraud judgment by Monday. If Trump’s Monday appeal fails to reduce or hold off James from collecting the bond amount, she would have the power to go after the former president’s cash and real estate holdings. [Snip] 1. Placing liens against properties, 2. Collecting rents from properties. 3. Collecting funds from Trump’s New York state bank accounts. [Snip] James could then use the judgment to target Trump’s assets in other states through a process called “domesticating.”

President Trump just notched a legal win that may shed some light on the bizarre decision made by the judge in the Big Fani dismissal case. In a moment that felt suggestive in a “wink and a nod” kind of way, Judge McAfee not only granted Trump a substantial triumph but also opened the door for rectifying his own unjust ruling by approving Trump’s appeal request in Georgia. It appears as if McAfee wanted to wash his hands clean and defer to a higher court, almost as if he was encouraging Trump’s team to seek an appeal and give Big Fani the bum rush right out the door.

Easter reminds us of the power of hope and the promise of Christ’s Resurrection. As we gather with loved ones, we remember Jesus’ sacrifice.

US home insurance rates will hit a record high this year, according to grim new forecasts. The typical annual premium will rise to $2,522 by the end of 2024, according to insurance comparison platform Insurify - up 6 percent on a year before. This projected increase for 2024 comes on the back of a 20 percent hike over the last two years. This has largely been driven by escalating natural disasters, insurers pulling out of certain areas - which cuts down on competition - and higher fees for home repairs. Soaring costs mean home insurance is becoming increasingly unaffordable for many Americans - with many opting to forego

Speaking to reporters at the White House Monday afternoon, Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre responded to backlash over President Joe Biden's decision to issue a proclamation for "Transgender Visibility Day" on Easter Sunday. Arguing March 31 is always transgender visibility day and that the date for Easter changes every year, Jean Pierre claimed lawmakers and reporters were spreading misinformation about the situation. She also touted Biden's celebration of Easter as a Christian. President Biden has discretion to issue or not issue recurring proclamations, especially when the context or timing is inappropriate -- a fact his press secretary failed to mention.

Hundreds of thousands of migrants have been authorized to fly into Miami, Florida — among dozens of other United States airports — as part of a parole pipeline that President Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) created and implemented. The airports where migrants are flying into the U.S. were revealed in a report from Todd Bensman with the Center for Immigration Studies. As Bensman notes, Biden’s DHS launched the parole pipeline, known as Advance Travel Authorization, in October 2022. It has since permitted 386,000 migrants to book their flights to the U.S. to secure “humanitarian parole.”
