Tether CEO Explains Why Stablecoins Are Booming In an interview with Bankless, Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino explained that around 2020, many middle-aged individuals who had previously not been involved with cryptocurrencies began to learn about stablecoins under the influence of younger generations. During periods of economic downturn, some developing...

The Trump admin is GASLIGHTING us re: no CBDCs They know they can't do CBDCs because of the Constitution, so they're backdooring them with stablecoins Iain Davis explains— "the idea of a [CBDC] is that it will give these private institutions total control of a new digital international monetary and financial system" "CBDC is programmable money that slots into that system. That's why they want it" "That's not going to work in the US because... it's a constitutional right in the United States that the people, and only the people, oversee what they call the power, quote–unquote... to coin money" "So what are you going to do about it? You need some sort of work-round" "So stablecoins and things like deposit tokens or tokenized deposits are variations of programmable digital currency. But rather than being issued by a central bank, they're issued by a commercial bank" "stablecoins... slot into the system of programmability just as easily, if not more so than a central bank digital currency. So you can attach smart contracts to any kind of digital transaction using digital currency" "Programmable digital currency and stablecoins do exactly the same thing, serve the same purpose, as central bank digital currency" This clip of Iain Davis (InThisTogether), author of The Technocratic Dark State, is taken from a Flashlights podcast (Flashlights Podcast) episode posted to Rumble on May 17, 2026. ---------------Partial transcription of clip---------------- "It's a constitutional right in the United States that the people, and only the people, oversee what they call the power, quote–unquote, it says this in the Constitution, to coin money. So the power to coin money is overseen by the people. "Now the idea of a central bank digital currency is that it will give these private institutions total control of a new digital international monetary and financial system. That's CBDC is programmable money that slots into that system. That's why they want it. "That's not going to work in the US because even though Congress, you know, Congress is the, is the dog which is wagged by the tail in this of the Fed, the Fed, you know, the Fed tells Congress what to do, not the other way round. But theoretically it could be the other way round. And theoretically the people could assert their control over the Fed if they only knew about it, which, not many people do, but they could do it, right? It's in the US Constitution. "Now that's a problem if you're going to embark on a global transformation of the entire international monetary and financial system when your leading reserve currency is the US dollar. So that's, you know, that could all go wrong very badly. "So what are you going to do about it? You need some sort of work round. How are you, how are you going to do which for the, you know, I, for many years, well, since central bank digital currency has been something that I've been looking at, I couldn't figure out why the US wasn't more enthusiastic about central bank digital currency. "Because it's the type of thing that the US administrations are usually right up— You know, they're really gung ho about that kind of centralized control of everything. That's right up their alley. So why, why don't they like it? And then it was the work of John Titus who pointed out this problem that they've got in the US with the Constitution that made me look at that and think, right. And then I started investigating that further. And he's right about that. That is a problem. "But then they obviously need some sort of workaround. How are they going to have. Because the main point of central bank digital currency from the surveillance and control aspect is that we will all need digital identity in order to access our digital wallets, which will contain the currency and the currency and the wallets and our, digital identities will all be programmable so conditions can be set on everything that we do. "Every transaction we make will be subject to condition through some sort of smart contract probably, which will control it. Right. So you know, if you say the wrong thing or you know, you, you just write the wrong thing online, you could be punished by algorithm by controlling your access to money... "And so the key to that is central bank— the programmability of central bank digital currency. But obviously that's not going to, may not work. There's a good chance that won't work in the United States which has got the US dollar reserve is an important currency. "So what are you going to do? So stablecoins and things like deposit tokens or tokenized deposits are variations of programmable digital currency. But rather than being issued by a central bank, they're issued by a commercial bank. So or in the case of stablecoins, a non-bank, a non-bank institution like Tether. So it's not a bank. "But you can use stablecoins for exactly the same. They slot into the system of programmability just as easily, if not more so than a central bank digital currency. So you can attach smart contracts to any kind of digital transaction using digital currency. Programmable digital currency and stablecoins do exactly the same thing, serve the same purpose as central bank digital currency or the other version, the commercial bank version is deposit tokens. Any of those will do. "Now in the US they've gone down the stablecoin route so they can issue the stablecoins which will be backed by US Treasuries, just like the dollar or just like any kind of dollar instrument will be one to one convertible for the US dollar. So the stablecoins are effectively the US dollar in, in digital form. "But instead of calling it a central bank digital currency, they call it issued by, it wouldn't have to be issued by the Fed. They call it a stablecoin, which is issued by a company like Tether or you know, someone like that. So it's the same system but using a workaround. And that workaround came with the Genius Act which, which came from an executive order that Trump made when he first came to office. "Because the Americans, quite rightly when they were electing their president, were concerned about central bank digital currency. I mean anyone that understands what it is should be terrified of it. So they didn't want it, and Trump promised that they wouldn't have it. Probably. I don't know whether he knew, but certainly the gaggle of technocrats that were around him knew that they weren't going down that path. Anyway, no chance of the US introducing it because of these problems we've just outlined."

Ky Dickens from the Telepathy Tapes explains to Joe Rogan she found out from the people she studied, their families and teachers that Telepathy is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to their spiritual gifts Source -JRE 🔗 in comments Ky -“I thought this was just about telepathy, right? And that there were these individuals and their parents and teachers were claiming they could read minds. And as I start meeting more and more and more of these families, and again, like I said, teachers, it's not limited to just families. One thing that they started telling me was telepathy the tip of the iceberg. And I didn't know what that meant, you know? What do you mean telepathy is the tip of the iceberg? And, and it's true because I think whether or not it's ability to see disease or illness on someone and be able to diagnose it before this person knows that there's something wrong, reading an aura, and you know, saying that they can see a color around not just animals and humans, but plants, being able to speak multiple languages even though you haven't been taught them, or playing instruments and knowing music or being able to access almost any song and having perfect pitch. Being able to visit people in dreams. And then, you know, I mean, I think some of the more just like mind altering shocking things for me was how many non-speaking individuals have said that they are able to speak with people from the other side. And yeah, it didn't just start with telepathy or end with telepathy. It's a plethora of things.”

🚨NEW: Adam Curry nicely breaks down how Stablecoins work, Tether, and the likely future of the US Digital Dollar system. (Worth a watch if you don't know about this subject) "A stablecoin is a digital dollar thats pegged to the dollar so it's always a dollar. It's already being used all over the internet and the world. The only reason it's worth a dollar is because the stablecoin company that creates it has debt and paper to back it up. They buy America's debt, they buy treasury bonds or T-bills that pay a dividend that gives interest, and for each dollar they've bought in treasury they can create stablecoins. If you look at the company Tether they've bought more of the US debt than most countries. They have $160B worth of US debt. For each of those dollars they have a stablecoin. There's like 50 people in the company. They have $160B at 4% interest annually, they're making BANK just for holding this debt. I think that President Trump is very smart in seeing that we can flood the world with our stablecoin and we get a 2-for-1. We create a dollar of debt and we create another dollar that can be used all over the world as a reserve currency and that should result in some new monetary system that we need to come up with to have our dollar valued properly but also still remain the reserve currency and remain a strong export country. We don't make anything that we sell abroad, we can't all serve each other burgers and fries -- we have to build something. All of that went overseas. There's something big coming, and it has to happen. Trump is a meta guy. He's going to re-finance the country. It'll be digital and he Bitcoiners don't like this because they want Bitcoin to be the one currency that everyone uses but its now more like a digital gold that's much easier to move around. It's useful but it isn't money or currency the way it was originally intended -- but it is still very important and will be part of the US' strategic reserve. It looks to me like Stablecoins and Tether in particular will be the future of the US dollar payments. A lot of people on the right are afraid of being controlled on a grid because you can stop stablecoins -- but it seems there's no way of getting around some form of a digital dollar. I still like Bitcoin as a backup to protect from that control." Great breakdown Adam Curry - curryirc.com

Democrats are literally admitting that the people from Haiti in America shouldn’t even be qualified for the Haitian Temporary Program Status “Some of the Haitian nationals that have TPS, they have children that were born in Chile, they have children that were born in Brazil, they have children that were born in different countries, and they have children that were born in the United States. So when we're talking about separation, the separation is far more complicated than people are even speaking of” Without realizing it, she just told you some of the game — that a lot of these individuals that are here under this Temporary Protected Status were already safely settled in another country. That's why they're having children who were born in other countries. And when Biden opened up the border, they all came here and then discarded those. Many of these people were shopping around countries, and when Joe Biden opened up the border, they surged the border” I’ve also made posts on this, The temporary protective status for Haitians in the United States was meant for the victims of the earthquake in 2010, the majority of the Haitians being protected from deportation under this order arrived under the Biden Admin, NOT the earthquake Original temporary protective status from the 2010 earthquake era started with roughly 50,000 beneficiaries The current Haitian temporary protective status holders is approximately 350,000 This is NOT what the original program was meant for Send them ALL back

Last week, Mastercard, Visa, Ripple & Coinbase 🛡️ all shipped payment rails for AI agents. Every one of them reached for stablecoins Instead of traditional cards. A choice that is the whole story 👇🏻 ◢ An unpriced problem Card networks are built around a human pressing approve. One purchase, one confirmation, a fee that only makes sense above a certain size. Agents don’t work like that. They pay continuously, programmatically, often in fractions of a cent, for things like an API call or a second of compute. A bot paying $0.004 a thousand times an hour is a transaction pattern the card model physically can’t process at a profit. The rails we built for people don’t fit the machines. ◢ Four giants, one answer On june 3 mastercard opened card settlement in stablecoins across eight chains. On june 10 it launched Agent Pay for Machines, letting agents settle in stablecoins with permissions recorded onchain. The same day, ripple shipped a toolkit putting RLUSD and the x402 standard under agent payments, visa announced an agentic commerce tie-up with openai, and coinbase switched on agentic trading. Four of the biggest names in payments moved in a single week and all landed on the same primitive. ◢ Why it had to be stablecoins Strip out the branding and the requirements are mechanical. The money has to be programmable, so code can hold and move it without a bank in the loop. It has to clear sub-cent payments, which card fees make impossible. It also has to settle in seconds with finality, because that’s the speed agents run at. And it has to be always on, because machines don’t take weekends. A dollar in a bank account fails most of those, while a dollar as a stablecoin passes all of them. ◢ Conclusive Insights For years stablecoins were pitched at consumers who already had working banks and mostly didn’t bite. The adoption story kept underdelivering because the product was aimed at the wrong buyer. The agent economy doesn’t have that problem. It has no legacy banking relationship, no human patience, and no other option that clears at machine speed. The demand that stablecoins were always promised is finally showing up, but not from the customer everyone expected. My take: the entire stablecoin debate was framed around human payments, which is why it kept stalling.

Listen👂🏾: An audibly frustrated SAPS Spokesperson Athlenda Mathe slams Sunday Times for leaking affidavits in on going cases. MEDIA STATEMENT FROM THE SOUTH AFRICAN POLICE SERVICE (SAPS) To: All media SAPS urges journalists and media houses(The Sunday Times) not to publish leaked affidavits in ongoing drug related investigations : Witnesses and their families lives are now at risk Pretoria, 19 April 2026; The South African Police Service (SAPS) Gauteng Counter Intelligence Operation has noted with serious concern the circulation and publication of leaked affidavits linked to ongoing investigations into drug related criminal networks in the country. Today, the SAPS noted such publication in the front page of "The Sunday Times" newspaper where certain Djs information and pictures were published. While the SAPS recognises and respects the vital role played by the media in promoting accountability and uncovering the truth, we urge all media houses(especially the Sunday Times), journalists, social media content creators to exercise responsibility and restraint in handling such sensitive information. The publication or dissemination of leaked affidavits especially those containing details of witnesses, informants, and evidence poses a direct and dangerous risk to the safety and lives of individuals who have come forward to assist police investigations. Its not only the Witnesses lives at risk but their families too. These individuals who are witnesses in senstive and high profile cases often do so under conditions of trust to the police. Furthermore, the premature release of such information has the potential to compromise ongoing investigations and alert criminals on police ongoing investigations. We would like to emphasize that the protection of witnesses and their families is of critical importance to the work of the police. We therefore urge members of the media, especially "The Sunday Times" to act in the interest of the lives and the families of witnesses and avoid publishing leaked affidavits and their personal information. We also make a call to some lawyers, attorneys and advocates working on these high profile cases not to leak information to the media and use that information solely to prepare for trial ready cases. We also make an appeal to social media users to also refrain from making unnecessary speculations and naming witnesses on cases, as witnesses lives are at risk.
