Bankster, CEO of Merril Lynch tells President Reagan to "speed it up".

What we see here is the Deep State in action: a bankster giving orders to the POTUS. Donald Regan, former CEO of Merrill Lynch and Treasury Secretary.

We all know this is nothing new. Our Republic fell in 1913 when Congress delegated its responsibility to regulate money to a bunch of private, for-profit banksters known collectively as the Federal Reserve.

These days, the Deep State probably consists of various corporations, the Military Industrial Complex, the CIA, the FBI and political action committees such as AIPAC, all of whom in one way or another answer to or work with the banksters and the Federal Reserve.

Youll also recall that as Reagan was in the process of forming the Gold Commission (a group which would explore a return to the gold standard), an attempt was made on his life.

Fun fact: Champion of freedom, Doctor Ron Paul, was on Reagan's Gold Commission.

The First Gold Commission Scared the Dickens Out of the Fed.

And in establishmentarian spirit, the commission also had to have as its chairman the über-monetarist Anna Schwartz, who along with Milton Friedman had staked her claim on the idea that good fiat monetary policy is indeed possible, if not yet exampled by any iteration of the Federal Reserve.

But in a spirit of intellectual ambition, the commission also included Texas Rep. Ron Paul.

In the end, two reports were released, the majority one authored by Schwartz. It passed on recommending a return to gold.

But the minority report, that of Paul and Lehrman, did recommend gold, and it remains to this day one of the scintillating documents of recent public policy. It might as well be a blueprint for 21st-century monetary reform.

My own hunch (and it was journalist Robert Novak’s too), as I expressed it in Econoclasts, was that the reason the Fed finally got serious about both not overprinting the dollar and not having wild gyrations in monetary production (the two things that bedeviled monetary policy since 1971), in other words trying to provide as much money as the real economy needed for growth, was that the Fed was scared it might be put out of business by the Gold Commission.

The Fed and central banks own politicians.

Any one who doesn't bow at the alter of central banking is dealt with.

Amazing to me that so many people believe the President and Government are the ones who run things - they are just the ones with power on paper. The real shot callers are the folks like Don Regan...

This video has poor volume but explains this more in detail.

The Deep State is real ... So what can be done ? Well Lee Stranahan got a plan and he puts it into a kind of rant but he's a thinking guy ...watch this Puppy and share :>)

The order allowed the Secretary to issue silver certificates, if any were needed, during the transition period under President Kennedy's plan to eliminate Silver Certificates and use Federal Reserve Notes

emphasis

Kennedy's plan to eliminate Silver Certificates and use Federal Reserve Notes

a reply to: xuenchen

Now that is a weird take on it. Kennedy was helping consolidate power for the FED through EO 11110?

Man I hope not but I will have to research further. Good thing the internet will always have an easily accessible counter story...

On June 4, 1963, a little known attempt was made to strip the Federal Reserve Bank of its power to loan money to the government at interest. On that day President John F. Kennedy signed Executive Order No. 11110 that returned to the U.S. government the power to issue currency, without going through the Federal Reserve. Mr. Kennedy's order gave the Treasury the power "to issue silver certificates against any silver bullion, silver, or standard silver dollars in the Treasury." This meant that for every ounce of silver in the U.S. Treasury's vault, the government could introduce new money into circulation. In all, Kennedy brought nearly $4.3 billion in U.S. notes into circulation. The ramifications of this bill are enormous.

I wonder if there is enough information out there to determine which is the truth?

So do you think Kennedy was assassinated by our own deep state government because he was trying to end the fed and remove us from Vietnam? Or was the LHO story more factual in this case?

a reply to: ClovenSky

That doesn't sound too good to me.

edit to add;; It also sounds like bull sh11111111t. I'm pretty sure I would have heard of that before.

a reply to: Wide-Eyes

I apologize but I don't understand what doesn't sound good to you. That you think the official story of JFK's death is correct or it is a fantasy to hid the fact that he went against the deep state was was killed for it? Or that JFK was trying to remove the power from the fed to issue our currency and that story is not factual?

That order didn't take power from the Federal Reserve, if anything it gave it more be eliminating silver certificates and mandating that the Federal Reserve print more notes.

Not saying the deep state isn't real but If you read his lips, the guy is not saying "speed it up"
the video presented by the OP is BS.

I believe it is a syncing issue. Audio is a off just a little bit. Looks like the actual words were said though.

ETA: The second video showing the incident is in sync.

Wiki is the only source I can find that seems to suggest EO11110 was Kennedy giving powers to the fed.

By virtue of the authority vested in me by section 301 of title 3 of the United States Code, it is ordered as follows:

SECTION 1. Executive Order No. 10289 of September 19, 1951, as amended, is hereby further amended --

(a) By adding at the end of paragraph 1 thereof the following subparagraph (j):

"(j) The authority vested in the President by paragraph (b) of section 43 of the Act of May 12, 1933, as amended (31 U.S.C. 821 (b)), to issue silver certificates against any silver bullion, silver, or standard silver dollars in the Treasury not then held for redemption of any outstanding silver certificates, to prescribe the denominations of such silver certificates, and to coin standard silver dollars and subsidiary silver currency for their redemption," and

(b) By revoking subparagraphs (b) and (c) of paragraph 2 thereof.

SEC. 2. The amendment made by this Order shall not affect any act done, or any right accruing or accrued or any suit or proceeding had or commenced in any civil or criminal cause prior to the date of this Order but all such liabilities shall continue and may be enforced as if said amendments had not been made.

JOHN F. KENNEDY
THE WHITE HOUSE,
June 4, 1963

The language appears to be that Kennedy was trying to take away the issuance of fiat from the fed. That he was instead trying to issue silver certificates that were tied to silver held by the government, so he was trying to tie our money to real physical assets again.

Maybe I am just blind in this instance. The search continues.

From the source you used, pay attention to the bolded part:

In 1961, at my direction, sales of silver were suspended by the Secretary of the Treasury. As further steps, I recommend repeal of those Acts that oblige the Treasury to support the price of silver; and repeal of the special 50-percent tax on transfers of interest in silver and authorization for the Federal Reserve System to issue notes in denominations of $1, so as to make possible the gradual withdrawal of silver certificates from circulation and the use of the silver thus released for coinage purposes. I urge the Congress to take prompt action on these recommended changes.

a reply to: AugustusMasonicus

arrrggg, the cognitive dissonance hurts (not against you, but from my own internal struggles)....

That wasn't from the article I posted but it appears to hold support from other sources.

The reason for the move was that the President had just signed legislation repealing the Silver Purchase Act. With this repeal, the Treasury Secretary could no longer control the issue of Silver Certificates on his own authority. However, the issuance of certificates could be controlled under the President's authority. Hence, for administrative convenience, President Kennedy issued Executive Order 11110.

Ironically, the purpose of the order and the legislation was to decrease the circulation of Silver Certificates, with Federal Reserve Notes taking their place. ...

To conserve on the silver needs of the Treasury, President Kennedy requested legislation needed to bring the issuance of Silver Certificates to an end and to authorize the Fed to issue small denomination notes (which it could not at that time). The Fed began issuing small denomination notes almost immediately after the legislation was passed. And in October 1964, the Treasury ceased issuing Silver Certificates altogether. If anything, E.O. 11110 enhanced Federal Reserve power and did not in any way reduce it.

Oh well, time to exercise some open mindedness and admit I was wrong.

Thank you for your time and effort.

The fed still needs to be ended posthaste.

Or it sounds like the silver was pulled out of paper money and was going to be put into coins.

Of course that is some of the argument is that the Congress is responsible for coinage not paper $$$. As we know the silver was pulled out of out coins in 1964 with the exception of the Kennedy silver 1/2 dollars they were silver (50%) til 1974 if I remember right.

Section 8

The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;

To borrow Money on the credit of the United States;

To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes;

To establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization, and uniform Laws on the subject of Bankruptcies throughout the United States;

To coin Money, regulate the Value thereof, and of foreign Coin, and fix the Standard of Weights and Measures;

Sorry, when you mentioned Wikipedia, that blurb is on their E.O. 11100 page, I thought that is what you were referencing as a source so I posted his quote.

Minted currency is pretty much irrelevant when talking about the overall money supply, it was to free up silver for use in manufacturing.

If I am getting change and the cashier says all I got is 2 1972 Kennedy 1/2 dollars or a paper.

Guess what one I would take.

If the govt wants a $1, $5, $10 or a $20 coin to work, put some silver in it like Kennedy wanted to do. It would be very popular.

We are talking about impacting United States currency, you aren't doing it with half dollars.
