Member: I did not get an EBS alert today
MZ: Interesting isn’t it….a number of you did get it today….sent me screen shots…..and a number of you didn’t hear it …Interesting watching all this play out.
Member: Some people reported getting the EAS today but the majority did not. Refusal to broadcast EAS is grounds for gov’t seizure, both TV and telecom allegedly
MZ: I have Rod Steele on the phone to tell us what he is hearing……then I will tell what I got….
RodSteele: Texas banks folks have still not gone into (work?) at redemption centers. Other banks think it will be later this week, and they are more excited than they have been in a long time. Contacts in DC think its later then the banks do….maybe later on next week …Iraq (Kazemi) is meeting with reps from all the surrounding countries…along with the Us and Russia at the end of the month.
RS: Iraq needs to get the 2022 budget done before Oct 1oth when the elections are held…..Right now in the budget it’s based on $55 dollars a barrel oil. Some say the people in the Treasury are waiting for the go light…..while we are waiting for them. So who are the Treasury waiting on? The Iraqis are out protesting in the streets because it’s not done. Bankers cannot see the rates on the bank screens right now but several in states we talk are excited for later this week. We hope no later than the end of this month.
MZ: I hear some similar things from my Iraqi contacts. ….Best thing today was a tabletop yellow dragon bond redemption group in Zurich that are now under an NDA. They will confirm they received some dollars but I do not know if it was a portion , a down payment or a big chunk.
MZ: one of my other larger groups is being told they will have full access on Friday. So I think we are moving…I just wish we were moving a lot faster
RS Amen to that….Can’t wait to see if N Carolina BBQ compares to Texas.
Member: IMO We need to have hyper inflation to drop the dollar before the RV...it will make the currency exchange better
MZ: I am hearing more reports from you guys and there are empty bank machines/ ATMS….Then Florida Red voice media did a piece “No cash left. Your bank may not have enough cash for lockdowns” meaning it doesn’t exist….people are trying to grab cash in case of emergencies….This is important because we have had a number of ATMs in our area that also are simply out of cash. Some stores shelves are looking pretty bare…..so be prepared guys.
Member: We're getting close! Hang in there, everyone!
Member: thank you markz for ALL U DO

A gigawatt is a billion watts of electricity. Running around the clock, one gigawatt is enough to supply about 800,000 average American homes— and a single large data center is now built at that scale.

Kinesis Money: 8-31-2026
In this week’s Live from the Vault, Andrew Maguire is joined by Bill Holter to examine whether Trump's repost of Jim Rickards' $10,000 gold call signals something far bigger than a market comment, and what it means for gold and the dollar system.
