## About this episode

United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres is calling for a total transformation of the global financial system as Western powers disconnect Russian banks from the SWIFT network. This move, characterized as economic warfare by economist Richard Wolff, aligns with the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero (GFANS) agenda led by Mark Carney and Mike Bloomberg to transition the world toward a digital reserve currency.

In Ukraine, President Zelensky has enforced a travel ban on men aged 18 to 60 while the government distributes AK-47s to untrained civilians, a move critics warn will fuel internal gang violence and guerrilla chaos. Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton appeared on MSNBC to advocate for state-sponsored cyber attacks against Russian infrastructure, citing the Arab Spring as a tactical precedent. On the ground, Russian forces have reportedly destroyed a dam on the Dnipro River to restore water flow to Crimea, a strategic objective largely ignored by Western media outlets like CNN and the BBC.

Technical inconsistencies in border reporting from Aaron Burnett and the use of 2018 gas explosion photos by The Guardian suggest a coordinated psychological operation is underway. The episode also features a report from Dame Sheila on the Zero COVID meltdown in Hong Kong and a deep dive into the alleged alien origins of William Shockley’s transistor. Master Sergeant Wirt Fuller and the No Agenda community provide the essential value-for-value support to keep the transmission running.

### 1. Antonio Guterres, UN Emergency Mode, Global Financial System (0:00–3:26)

United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres issued a tweet outlining five action areas for member countries, including fighting COVID-19 and transforming the global financial system. The removal of Russian finance from the SWIFT network is analyzed as a potential step toward this financial transformation. Claims are made that the Western media's portrayal of the Ukraine conflict functions as a psychological operation to achieve these globalist goals.

### 2. CNN, Aaron Burnett, Green Screen Allegations in Ukraine (3:27–11:35)

CNN correspondent Aaron Burnett's reporting from the Ukrainian border is scrutinized for technical inconsistencies, leading to allegations of green screen usage. Observations regarding the lack of visible breath in cold temperatures and echoey background audio of a barking dog suggest the report may have been filmed in a studio rather than on-location. The discussion highlights historical instances of media manipulation, such as the use of blue screens during the Gulf War.

### 3. Satellite Imagery, Ukrainian Troop Movements, Age Range Edict (11:36–14:45)

Questions are raised regarding the lack of public satellite imagery showing the reported 200,000 Russian troops, contrasting it with private satellite monitoring used in other conflicts. President Zelensky's edict, referred to as "the range," is explained as a travel ban for men aged 18 to 60 to ensure they remain in the country to fight. This martial law prevents families from crossing into Poland together if the husband falls within that age bracket.

### 4. Polish Border, Racial Discrimination, Nigerian Voodoo Shamans (14:45–17:11)

Reports from sources on the ground suggest that Polish border authorities are practicing racial discrimination by only allowing white refugees to enter. An anecdote involving Nigerian criminal organizations and human trafficking in Ukraine is shared to explain the presence of non-Ukrainian groups attempting to flee. Ukraine is characterized as a global hub for weapon smuggling, cybercrime, and illicit financial activities involving the Biden family.

### 5. Guerrilla Warfare, AK-47 Distribution, Ukrainian Gangs (17:12–19:32)

The Ukrainian government's decision to distribute crates of AK-47s to civilians is viewed as a precursor to chaotic guerrilla warfare. Concerns are raised that these weapons are being seized by local gangs rather than organized resistance fighters. This mass arming of the populace is described as a dangerous move that could lead to significant internal violence.

### 6. Media Geography Errors, Lviv, Hungary Border (19:32–22:07)

CNN's geographic reporting is criticized after anchors mistakenly referred to the "Hungary border" while discussing Lviv, which is significantly further north. The segment notes that Aaron Burnett moved between different border crossings to find shorter lines, eventually entering Hungary. The lack of specific travel information in these reports is highlighted as a failure of useful journalism.

### 7. UK Media, Reused Imagery, 2018 Gas Explosion Photo (22:08–24:41)

British newspapers, including The Guardian and The Mirror, are called out for using identical front-page imagery of a bandaged woman to depict the invasion of Ukraine. It is revealed that the photo actually dates back to a 2018 gas explosion, rather than current military action. This coordinated use of old imagery is presented as evidence of a manufactured media narrative.

### 8. Cultural Sanctions, Eurovision, Saturday Night Live Propaganda (24:41–28:27)

Cultural and entertainment entities are participating in the isolation of Russia, including the Eurovision Song Contest banning Russian contestants and Saturday Night Live featuring a Ukrainian chorus. Actor Sean Penn's visit to meet with President Zelensky is characterized as a typical element of a psychological operation. Much of the current war footage is dismissed as unverified cellphone video or flight simulator clips rather than professional B-roll.

### 9. Hillary Clinton, MSNBC Interview, Aid and Comfort (28:27–35:39)

Hillary Clinton appeared on MSNBC to urge Americans to call out those giving "aid and comfort" to Vladimir Putin, specifically targeting Republicans and media figures. She argued that internal division in the U.S. plays into the hands of Putin and President Xi of China. Clinton's demeanor during the interview, including a moment where she laughed while discussing Putin's "anti-gay" values, is analyzed as being politically motivated and aggressive.

### 10. Hillary Clinton, Cyber War, 2011 Russian Protests (35:40–41:26)

Hillary Clinton called for aggressive cyber attacks against Russian government institutions and oligarchs, citing the Arab Spring as a precedent for such intervention. She denied organizing the 2011 protests in Russia, though critics argue her State Department was deeply involved in those events. The discussion suggests that billions in U.S. aid will likely be funneled to NGOs to continue these types of disruptive operations.

### 12. CNN Special Report, Alex Jones, Misinformation Empire (43:35–45:14)

CNN is promoting a special report titled "Megaphone for Conspiracy," which focuses on Alex Jones and his "misinformation empire." The trailer attributes the rise of QAnon and the anti-vaccination movement to Jones's influence. The hosts mock the premise, noting that CNN is attempting to link Jones to various disparate movements like Anonymous.

### 13. Joe Biden, Media Criticism, Military Analysis (45:15–49:11)

Media commentators on CNN are beginning to criticize President Biden's "drastic" agenda and divisive rhetoric, noting that he has no clear mandate for his current actions. An Air Force Colonel's military analysis of the invasion is mocked for suggesting that blowing up bridges would cut off communications. The segment highlights the perceived incompetence of both the administration and its media defenders.

### 14. RT, YouTube Censorship, Silicon Valley De-platforming (49:12–50:57)

YouTube has blocked access to RT (Russia Today) videos in Ukraine and disabled monetization for all RT channels globally. This follows similar bans by European and Australian broadcasters. The hosts argue that this censorship prevents Americans from seeing counter-opinions and is part of a broader effort to control the information narrative.

### 15. Ursula von der Leyen, SWIFT Disconnection, Golden Passports (50:58–55:03)

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced the disconnection of select Russian banks from the SWIFT international payment system. The EU is also moving to paralyze the assets of the Russian Central Bank and end "golden passports" that allow wealthy Russians to buy European citizenship. A transatlantic task force will be established to identify and freeze the assets of sanctioned individuals.

### 16. Richard Wolff, Economic Warfare, SWIFT Monopoly (55:03–57:10)

Economist Richard Wolff warns that barring Russia from SWIFT constitutes economic warfare that will disrupt global trade and drive inflation higher. He notes that Germany was initially hesitant because the move makes it impossible to pay for Russian gas, potentially leading to a supply cutoff. Wolff suggests this will accelerate the end of the SWIFT monopoly as Russia, China, and Iran develop alternative systems.

### 17. Kamala Harris, Sanctions Deterrence, Messaging Failure (57:11–59:54)

Vice President Kamala Harris is criticized for inconsistent messaging regarding the purpose of sanctions, first calling them a deterrent and then claiming no one expected them to prevent anything. President Biden's initial reluctance to use the SWIFT sanction is highlighted, noting that he originally claimed other banking sanctions would be more effective. The rapid shift in the European position on SWIFT is noted as a significant policy reversal.

### 18. Central Bank Assets, Liquidating Dollars, Military Funding (59:54–1:04:06)

The freezing of the Russian Central Bank's assets is identified as a more significant blow than the SWIFT ban, as it prevents Russia from liquidating its dollar reserves. This move is intended to make it impossible for the Russian government to finance its military operations by printing money backed by foreign assets. The White House confirmed that these restrictions target Russia's "rainy day fund" held in foreign banks.

### 19. SWIFT System Mechanics, Energy Sector Exemptions, NSA Spying (1:04:07–1:07:00)

The SWIFT system is clarified as a messaging intranet for banks rather than a fund transfer mechanism. It is noted that banks handling Russian energy transactions have been exempted from the ban to allow the EU to continue purchasing gas. Historical context is provided regarding the NSA's past spying on the SWIFT network, which previously caused international friction between the U.S. and Europe.

### 20. Great Reset, Energy Prices, Petrodollar Collapse (1:07:01–1:09:30)

The current financial crisis and rising energy prices are framed as triggers for the "Great Reset" and a transition away from the petrodollar. High gas prices in Europe are seen as a deliberate push toward electric vehicles and climate change lockdowns. The discussion posits that the current financial system is being intentionally dismantled to make way for central bank digital currencies.

The Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero (GFANS), led by Mark Carney and Mike Bloomberg, is identified as the group executing the plan to transform the global financial system. Major banks like Bank of America and BlackRock have pledged to align their investments with "net zero" goals by 2050. This alliance is viewed as a move by global bankers to replace the current reserve currency system with a digital alternative.

### 22. Matt Lee, State Department, Sanction Exemptions (1:12:49–1:16:04)

Associated Press reporter Matt Lee questioned State Department spokesperson Ned Price regarding the extensive list of exemptions in the Russian sanctions. Lee pointed out that almost every area of bilateral engagement, including climate, COVID-19, and international organizations, remains carved out. The exchange suggests that the sanctions are more performative than comprehensive, as core national security interests continue to require Russian cooperation.

### 23. Antony Blinken, Soviet Empire, Article 5 (1:16:05–1:19:00)

Secretary of State Antony Blinken stated that Vladimir Putin intends to reconstitute the Soviet Empire and that Kiev remains under threat of siege. Blinken emphasized that NATO's Article 5 serves as a deterrent against any Russian advance beyond Ukraine's borders. The hosts criticize Blinken's rhetoric as "bluster" and question the intelligence supporting the claim that Putin wants to restore the full Soviet bloc.

### 24. Nuclear Threats, Risk Management, Intelligence Divergence (1:19:01–1:21:28)

A report from a critical infrastructure security insider highlights a massive divergence between intelligence analysts and risk management professionals regarding the threat of World War III. While intelligence officers view the current situation as "bull crap," risk analysts are reportedly preparing for a nuclear holocaust. Secretary Blinken's response to Putin's nuclear rhetoric is characterized as being prepared for a "first strike" scenario.

### 26. Crimea Water Supply, Dam Destruction, Northern Crimean Channel (1:25:38–1:28:55)

Russian forces destroyed a dam on the Dnipro River that had been built by Ukraine in 2014 to cut off 86% of Crimea's fresh water supply. The blockage had devastated Crimean agriculture and caused severe water shortages for 2.5 million residents. This military action is presented as a strategic move to restore water security to the peninsula, a motive largely ignored by Western media.

### 27. Chernobyl Security, Article 5 Triggers, Russian Economy Weakness (1:28:55–1:32:48)

Russian and Ukrainian forces are reportedly working together to secure the Chernobyl nuclear power plant to prevent sabotage. Media speculation suggests that any radiation leak could be used as a pretext to trigger NATO's Article 5. Economist William Black argues that Russia's economy is too weak to sustain a long-term conflict, potentially making Ukraine "Putin's Afghanistan."

### 28. EU Airspace Ban, Zelensky Video, Tank Protest (1:32:49–1:37:01)

The European Union has banned all Russian-owned and controlled aircraft from its skies and prohibited Russian state media like Sputnik. President Zelensky released a video from the streets of Kiev to debunk rumors that he had called for a surrender. A viral video of a man attempting to stop a Russian tank with his bare hands is analyzed as a potential photo op, noting the presence of cameras and the man's apparent intoxication.

Russian forces have made decisive gains in southeastern Ukraine, including the city of Melitopol, where the Russian flag was raised over a police station. Western intelligence suggests that Russian special forces and saboteurs are active in Kiev, while larger battle groups approach. The discussion mentions the presence of the Azov Battalion, described as a Nazi-aligned unit active in the Donbass region since 2014.

### 30. Military Equipment, Javelin Missiles, Syrian Precedent (1:39:21–1:43:15)

A producer with a military background provides an analysis of why providing advanced weaponry like Javelin missiles to untrained civilians is ineffective. Drawing on experiences from the Syrian conflict, the source explains that civilians with military equipment often become "cannon fodder" against trained soldiers. The segment suggests that the U.S. is repeating the mistakes of past covert operations by encouraging an insurgency that will lead to high casualty rates.
