"I want to see for myself how bad the immigration problem is"

When it is 10 million military aged males, it is not immigration. It's an invasion.

Thank you Dan for a clear education of your dear readers!

"Heading for the hills" As you know, I bought property in the mountains back in 2011, at wonderfully discounted prices, and recently sold my home(at three times my buying price 11 years ago), and started construction on my final destination home months ago. It's almost completely ready for an end of the world event, other then an astroid or a nuclear event within 25 miles:)...

You and our host are probably as ready as many here probably are, but if you are stuck in Baltimore when TSHTF, it's all over, as you really don't want to be there on a normal day.

Before you take the trip up north to NY, just drive a half hour south to our nations capital, to fully understand the true horror of what has happened to America since the tide of communist have hijacked the democratic cult, and kidnapped many republican for the ride...

You stated the highest number of PT workers in history. but forgot to add the highest number of homeless(democratic cities), health insurance cost(Obama Care), Illegal Immigration(Joe Biden), Drug addiction and overdose deaths(democrats), Murders and crime(democrat cities), Inflation(Joe Biden and Donald Trump), and the list goes on and on for the highest amount of all destructive issues that would turn the wealthiest and most powerful nation on the planet, into the third world shithole it has become.

All above have the same common denominater. The Democrat, or socialist, or communist, because as with human waste, you can call it poop, excerment, feces, number two, crap, dung, stool, BM, poo or shit, but at the end of the day, it's still a democrat.

I may have also been the idea behind your "Controlled Demolition" article, back in 2022, as iv'e been preaching that truth for many year before that, just stated it as a "Planned Demolition" on all humanity, and if you don't believe it, you probably beleive that Mr Epstein killed himself, and Joe Biden honestly won the 2020 election...

Yes Dan, The Great Taking has been happening for many decades, as your AI picture shows an imaginary image that is so accurate, it's scary...IA only knows what it's been fed, like most humans. The difference is our common-sense, which is no longer common...

Destruction of the middle class is obvious. I read an article earlier today that referred to common sense. It was related to the ivy league women and the congressional hearings. Are they fools? Don't they have common sense? Common sense is the defining concept here. If the middle class lacks common sense they will be led like sheep maybe even sheeple. Confuse the people from kindergarten on and common sense is gone! The rights of all individuals are at risk Even those of the dumb ass " elites " Who have already demonstrated their lack of common sense. Thus they're high level positions for which they were chosen in academia.

Dan, a terrific article. I listened to the video of “The Great Taking “, sobering to say the least. Your comments concerning lawyers trying to determine the legal basis of his work is worthy of pursuit and he does cite credible sources. Thank you for including links to Bill and wife’s work in the Argentina lock-down. Best regards, John

Thanks Dan, I read The Great Taking and thought to myself 'oh no more things to be concerned about that I don't quite understand'. Knowing that you guys are taking a more detailed look and asking the lawyers if his thesis is realistic is some considerable comfort. Looking forward to the results of your cogitations.

I thought Webs book dovetails with the All Wars Are Bankers Wars book and again points to reserve banks being the baddies, manipulating things. Like the weird 2023. And the busting of some banks to give them to JPM etc.

Mr. Graham. Much agreed with the book and the video.

I appreciate your review of "The Great Taking". I read the book, but don't really feel qualified to evaluate Webb's claims. It sounds really scary, but I look at my personal situation and don't see many ways I could be better prepared, if what he says comes true.

Glad to have a copy of "The Lockdown Diaries."

I have sampled several "investmenr letters" over the past two decades. The Great Taking appears to repeat the drill: scare people and they'll buy your book or your advisory service. I have grown very weary of it, and skeptical, too.

Anyway, thank you for saving me from having to buy my own copy, and from having to read it.

And thank you for today's newsletter. I think it was a rational look at where we are today.

The book is a free PDF download for anyone who cares to read it. DRW isn't in it to make money

thank you for that information. I will probably not read it anyway. My loss, I'm sure, but this "sky is falling" reporting grows tiresome.

“Does anyone take these numbers seriously anymore?” Hell no! Lies in and again a quarter later. What BS. Good wake up Dan, Bloody Mary time.

Greetings Dan,

Your 2024 inaugural commentary constitutes a sublime tour de force. Could it be the future world to which Dan alludes was foretold 2,000 years ago? Revelation 13:16-17 "It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name. (NIV)"

My friend from the North GA mountains says in response to any current issue, like the Great Taking, “Grow your own tomatoes and potatoes!” Except he actually says it like this, “Grow some ‘maters n ‘taters!” 😉

Would people be willing to pay a premium and pay more for stock trades and brokerage services again in exchange for legal agreements that their property will remain theirs and not be pooled, hypothicated, or collateralized in any way? Is there a business model there that someone with an entrepreneurial spirit might exploit and thereby provide an alternative choice and counteract what has been broadly done within the financial industry as described by Webb? I guess time will tell...

Great summary of TGT. In furtherance to this content, will BPR review the efforts of The World Council for Health with their suggestions in opposition to WHO? Tom’s portfolio hedging stocks and cash with physical gold is one protection from the intermediaries. Another hedge - against financial institutions and their ability to take your assets - is to own real estate free and clear. But the taxing authority is a lien. How to stop them? Better to leverage up or not at all? If leveraged up, where to put the wealth that otherwise would be in the land? Are we painted into a corner? What good is gold if it can’t buy anything? Dystopian futures are beyond imagination. Are those who cry foul really nuts?! The four of you at BPR must run around in circles when discussing all of this!

Dan: Glad that BPR is investigating the ramifications of The Great Taking (TGT). Most people don't know their stocks and bonds in a brokerage company are not legally registered in their name such that if the brokerage company goes bankrupt, they may lose of all or a portion of the value of their holdings. I'm not so much worried about the bankers as I am suspicious about the Globalists (WEF and their gang of supporters) who want to create a one world government (the NWO). And, yes, the bankers and the globalists may be one and the same!! I hope it's a very low probability event but if it happens most people will own nothing and they're not going to be very happy. Owning unencumbered assets (land, gold, silver, and other things) and not having a large stock portfolio at a brokerage company may minimize the potential losses described in TGT. The world's debt (including derivatives) represent a potential crisis that is almost unthinkable. It's beyond our control, unfortunately, and would represent the End Game to our civilization as we know it. Thanks for bringing TGT to our attention.

Great article, thanks for taking a deep dive into The Great Taking. What Webb doesn't see is that the end result is to turn the US into a feudal society. People are easier to control in such a society. And, of course, there is a religious power behind this. But, that's just crazy conspiracy talk, and no insane person will believe it.
