The fact that children are seeing this without parental supervision is rather horrifying. Sentiment understood, but vibes here are off the charts evil.

THIS IS ABOUT TO GO VIRAL, BUT IT'S BECAUSE NO ONE KNOWS WHAT IT IS. I'M PERSONALLY OKAY WITH THAT BECAUSE PEOPLE DON'T SEEM TO BE FREAKED OUT ENOUGH BY MAID YET. THIS MIGHT JUST DO THE TRICK.

The Fed's transformation to full-blow Orwellian status continues
The rumors are now confirmed: the Fed is in the process of changing its role from âlender of last resortâ to dictatorial financial overlord. If that sounds dramatic, consider that Powell & Co. plan to force banks to borrow from them - or else.
In the spirit of never letting a crisis go to waste, the Fed, the FDIC, and the Treasury are citing the collapse of several regional banks in March of last year as the impetus for transforming the discount window from an emergency measure into standard operating procedure.

Whatâs the discount window, you ask? Itâs the primary way in which the Fed fulfills its role as the lender of last resort, giving loans to a bank when that bank canât get a loan in the private market.
There are three types of discount window use, all of which require collateral: primary, secondary, and seasonal.
Primary is for banks in relatively good shape (aside from the fact that theyâre insolvent and need a loan from the money printer). Loans can only be used for literally anything.
Secondary credit is more restricted, shorter term, available to institutions in worse shape, and canât increase assets, meaning it has to be used for things that decrease liabilities, like paying depositors.
Seasonal is for small banks that have predictable liquidity crunches and want to rely on the Fed instead of using sound banking practices, purposely overleveraging themselves because they can charge higher loan rates to customers than they pay to the Fed.
Like most things related to the Fed, the name âdiscount windowâ makes no sense. There is no âdiscountâ to the borrowing bank - they pay a premium instead.
Why would the Fed charge a premium, or higher interest rate, than the market rate? Itâs because they donât want you going to them first for a loan - this is supposed to be a last resort. At least, that was the idea - until now.
Itâs not really a good look to be going to the discount window, at least not if youâre using it in large quantities. That signals the rest of the financial market that youâre in some kind of trouble since discount window use is publicly available information.
This makes perfect sense - you need a loan but canât get one from the private market at anything close to the interest rates other banks are paying each other for short-term loans. There is rightly a stigma attached to a bank thatâs perpetually in hoc to the lender of last resort.
Other banks and investors alike have a right to know who is taking these loans from the Fed. To hide that information would be the equivalent of countless types of fraud - like a firm hiding from investors that it has bad assets or outstanding loans that are kept off the books.
But this is essentially what the Fed wants to do: hide a valuable market signal from all participants in the financial community.
Now, you canât do it directly because that would be too obvious. If, for example, the Fed just stopped reporting discount window use, we could just observe which businesses are getting unexplained cash infusions and know theyâre still using the discount window.
p1
So, the Fed and its cronies in government intend to muddy the waters, making everything so murky that itâll be impossible to tell who is doing what.
If that sounds like a great backdrop from which to do illegal things and defraud investors and depositors alike, youâd be correct. Hereâs the tentative plan for how the scheme will work.
The Fed, the Treasury, and the FDIC intend to force banks to use the discount window periodically, even if they can get a loan from another bank - or even if they donât need a loan at all.
At first, this doesnât sound like that big a deal and thereâs an easy workaround: borrow the money and then immediately pay it back. Itâd be like walking into a bank, withdrawing $100 from your savings account, and then, when the teller asks if you need anything else today, you make a deposit for $100.
So, get ready for pre-payment penalties and mandatory holds, along with preposterously high interest rates on reserves.
In other words, the Fed will make it so painful to repay your loan early that you essentially have no choice but to keep the money for the entire term. That makes it impossible to distinguish between banks using the discount window in times of distress vs. those compelled to do so.
Why would the Fed do this? Why donât they want us aware of where the problems are in our financial system?
In short, because theyâre everywhere. The Fed knows that theyâve created the mother of all ticking time bombs and thereâs only two options: let it explode in the most violent deflationary event since the Panic of 1907 or diffuse this monstrously large bomb by throwing it in an equally large liquidity bath.
The former option is more painful initially, but healthier in the long run. Undoubtedly though, the Fed wants to do the latter because itâs what the Fed has done literally every time since 1921 when Ben Strong engineered a recession for the first time. (Unless you count Nicholas Biddle, but he contracted credit to spite Pres. Andrew Jackson, not cool off inflation. AnywayâŚ)
One particularly insidious part of these discussions behind closed doors is that technocrats are claiming the regional bank crisis was due in part to many banks not being operationally configured to borrow from the discount window.
What a crock of $#!&.
Every depository institution is set up to borrow from the discount window by virtue of participation in the Federal Reserve System. Sure enough, discount window usage soared in March and April of last year to record highs as banks were collapsing.
Additionally, loans to the FDIC to pay depositors of failed banks also exploded. Both the discount window and the FDIC loans began their stratospheric rise a week before the Bank Term Funding Program was even created.
In that sense, the system worked as intended. The reason the BTFP bailout facility had to be opened was because the regional banks that were in trouble ran out of good assets to post as collateral at the discount window.
The BTFP (something weâve explained in detail in an earlier newsletter) values assets at par, giving those insolvent banks an extra lifeline from the lender of last resort.
Itâs not that the discount window didnât function properly, but that banks were in such terrible shape that even the discount window couldnât save them - the mark-to-market value of their liabilities exceeded their assets, pure and simple.
Mandating discount window use is like a permanent extension, in some sense, of the BTFP. Itâs an attempt to prevent any financial institution from failing, no matter how insolvent it becomes.
Investors be damned. Depositors be damned. Truth be damned.
In addition to hiding all of the problems that they created, this move by the Fed also helps consolidate power, slowly eliminating banksâ abilities to borrow from each other or not borrow at all, but instead keeping their own sufficient reserves.
The banking systemâs power to expand and contract credit on its own through fractional reserve banking makes the Fedâs job of manipulating markets that much harder. Consolidating all bank lending into the central bank provides much more direct control over the creating and extinguishing of money.
The Fed wants to be not just the guiding hand but the sole arbiter of the money supply. Likewise, it wants not just to be the lender of last resort, but the sole lender. The end goal here is to be judge, jury, and executioner.
You can call us alarmists if youâd like or tell us weâre paranoid. But if the last several years have taught us anything, itâs that just because youâre paranoid doesnât mean theyâre not out to get you.

Itâs Not Just Seafood: New Study Finds Microplastics in Nearly 90% of Proteins Sampled, Including Plant-Based Meat Alternatives
Researchers at Ocean Conservancy and University of Toronto estimate that American adults could be consuming up to 3.8 million microplastics per year from protein alone
January 8, 2024
Portland, Ore. â A new study led by researchers at Ocean Conservancy and the University of Toronto and published today in the journal Environmental Pollution found microplastic particles in 88% of protein food samples tested. The samples were drawn from 16 different protein types* destined for U.S. consumers, including seafood, pork, beef, chicken, tofu, and three different plant-based meat alternatives.
While scientists have long documented the presence of microplastics in the digestive tracts of commercial fish and shellfish like salmon, halibut and oysters, there has been little research into whether these microplastics are entering the filets of the fish â the parts that are actually eaten by people; and little research into terrestrial protein sources like beef and chicken that make up a large part of the American diet. In this study, microplastics were found in all 16 protein types tested, suggesting that humans are likely eating microplastics no matter the source of protein they choose. Furthermore, there were no statistical differences in microplastic concentrations between land- and ocean-sourced proteins.
âThis is a startling reminder of just how prolific plastic pollution has become â humans live on land and yet seafood samples are just as likely to be contaminated with plastics as are terrestrial derived proteins,â said study co-author Dr. Britta Baechler, a marine biologist and Associate Director of Plastics Science at Ocean Conservancy. âAnd thereâs no escaping them no matter what you eat, it seems. The plastic pollution crisis is impacting all of us, and we need to take action to address its many forms.â
p1
The study found evidence that food processing is a likely source of microplastic contamination, as highly processed protein products (like fish sticks, chicken nuggets, tofu, and plant-based burgers, among others) contained significantly more microplastics per gram than minimally processed products (items like packaged wild Alaska pollock, raw chicken breast, and others). However, no statistical difference was found between high-processed products and fresh-caught products, suggesting that food processing is not the only source of microplastic contamination and opening avenues for further research.
âItâs tempting to want to draw conclusions like âeat less of this and more of thatâ to avoid microplastics in your diet; but right now we still know very little about the microplastic burdens in commonly consumed foods. Our study adds to this knowledge but also demonstrates the need for further research to better understand the bigger picture, including where these microplastics are coming from and the potential human health risks,â said primary co-author Madeleine Milne, who conducted the research while at the Rochman Lab at the University of Toronto in 2022.
Notably, across all samples, nearly half (44%) of the identified microplastics were fibers, which is consistent with other studies suggesting that fibers are the most prevalent form of microplastic in the environment. About a third of the microplastics (30%) were plastic fragments.
Using survey data from a separate study by Ocean Conservancy and the University of Toronto (to be published in Frontiers in Marine Science) the authors estimate an American adult will consume, on average, 11,500 microplastics per year. Annual exposure could be as high as 3.8 million microplastics per year if calculated using the highest levels of microplastics found in each individual protein type and the average reported protein consumption rates.
âAs ocean scientists, my co-authors and I are deeply concerned about the growing plastics crisis in the worldâs ocean,â said Dr. George Leonard, Ocean Conservancyâs Chief Scientist and a co-author of the study. âBut our study shows that plastics in our food goes well beyond fish and shellfish to a wide variety of other protein sources, as well. Our work is a call to action to reduce plastic pollution in its many forms to ensure a safe and healthy food supply for all consumers.â
