About this episode
Tom Luongo discusses the underlying causes of chaos in Western politics and the control of American monetary and foreign policy.
In this episode, I’m sitting down with Tom Luongo for the sixth time, and he makes a bold case: the chaos you’re watching in Western politics, the wars, the censorship, the financial pressure, it doesn’t trace back to China, it doesn’t trace back to Russia. It traces back to Europe. And specifically to a colonial power structure that never really let go. We’re diving into why Trump’s second term is less about one man and more about a historic battle over who actually controls American monetary and foreign policy. This one goes deep into geopolitics, monetary history, capital markets, and what it really means to opt out of a system that was never designed to work in your favour. ––– Offers & Discounts ––– 🏥 CrowdHealth - Ditch your fiat health insurance like my family did.
