The globalist body that controls most of the world’s international payment transactions just announced a breathtaking plan to take even greater control over every world citizen’s money ... and Joe Biden’s Executive Order 14067 is paving the way.

Two bills in Congress stand in the way of Joe Biden and his globalist central banker pals. Called the CBDC (Central Bank Digital Currency) Anti-Surveillance Act, HR 1122 and S 887 will prevent Joe Biden from replacing anonymous, cold hard cash with digital, programmable dollars meant to track, trace, and control every dollar you manage to earn, save, or spend.

“CBDCs are a desperate reaction by governments to prevent decentralized currencies from threatening the monopoly of national currencies,” says Norbert Michel, vice president and director of the Cato Institute's Center for Monetary and Financial Alternatives. “They enable maximum government control over people’s lives through the direct provisioning of money and financial services.”

On March 9, 2022, Joe Biden issued Executive Order 14067, “Ensuring Responsible Development of Digital Assets,” ordering the Federal Reserve to begin “investigating” a Central Bank Digital Currency. In the two years since Biden signed that order, the Federal Reserve has already begun writing the computer code and testing the CBDC Biden ordered.

A recent move by the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT), perfectly demonstrates that Joe Biden’s push for an American CBDC is actually a globalist push for worldwide currency control. Last week, SWIFT announced that it will launch a CBDC platform beginning in as soon as 12 months from now.

At its core, SWIFT is a behemoth of an electronic communication system used by world banks to facilitate the transfer of money across international borders. To be clear, SWIFT is not a bank, it does not store or handle cash. Instead, it is the go-between that allows (or prevents) international financial transactions to be processed.

In the 50 years since SWIFT was formed, it has grown to govern more than 11,000 banks in more than 200 countries.

Headquartered in Belgium, SWIFT is run by the central banks of the G10 (Group of 10, though it is now 11) nations, which are Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The G10 member nations’ central bank governors and finance ministers meet in conjunction with the International Monetary Fund and World Bank annual meetings to decide financial and monetary policies for the global economy.

In recent years, SWIFT has effectively turned into an arm of the U.S. State Department, enforcing the State Department’s will on other countries, primarily through sanctions. Getting kicked out of SWIFT has traditionally become a death knell to a country’s entire economy, because the people, businesses, and governments of the alienated countries are no longer able to send or receive money internationally.

SWIFT claims the move to CBDCs is necessary to enable cheaper, faster international payments. But instant, free, or low-fee international monetary transfers are already available via cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin. So why are they bothering at all?

According to Reuters, 90% of the world’s central bankers are investigating and/or developing CBDCs because they “don’t want to be left behind by Bitcoin.”

CBDC backers want CONTROL. And not just Joe Biden or Gavin Newsom- type controls, but GLOBAL control over every cent earned, stored, and sent worldwide by governments AND their citizens — including YOU!

Central bankers around the world are using or planning to use CBDCs to control spending habits. In China, the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) prevents people from using their own hard-earned money to buy things of which the CCP disapproves. If a Chinese citizen has used their allotment of medical resources or gasoline, the CCP simply prevents their CBDC cards from paying such a bill ... no matter how much money the user has in their bank account.

The Swedish government is considering balance caps and proposing “negative interest rates” through which Swedish citizens will be CHARGED for having too much money in their savings account.

The European Central Bank (ECB) is also considering imposing balance limits that forbid people from saving more money than the ECB wants them to save. In addition, the ECB plan includes sharing user’s spending data with “financial intelligence units,” that will track every person’s financial transactions in real time without a warrant.

Renowned economist Friedrich Hayek correctly said that the difference between serfdom and freedom is a person’s ability to control the fruits of his labors.

In contrast, Bitcoin was specifically designed to defeat the central bankers’ control over money and the people who own or use it. As Bitcoin has risen in popularity, so has the globalists’ push to eliminate it. The entire point of CBDCs is to keep the Bitcoin from becoming the predominant international currency. Bitcoin is permissionless and decentralized, meaning that no one needs a government’s permission to use it, and no government can control it.

That’s why the Chinese Communist Party has already banned Bitcoin, and why globalists the world over demonize cryptocurrency, characterizing it as currency for criminals. But after the COVID crisis, populations around the world have learned they cannot trust their governments, and as a result, Bitcoin's popularity continues to rise.

We must stop Joe Biden’s relentless push to make us slaves to the globalist state.
