| 0:00.0 | Welcome back to Impact Theory. This is part two with Whitney Webb, and we are breaking down all of how this impacts your freedom directly as well as your privacy and your finances and the steps you can take to stay ahead. So let's get right back into it. |
| 0:15.5 | Okay, there's another piece of this puzzle that I want to put on the table right now, because when I heard you say it, |
| 0:21.2 | I was, I was shocked. |
| 0:25.0 | Isn't the right word, but it's close enough. |
| 0:26.8 | You said, this is going to be a paraphrase, but it'll get us very close. |
| 0:31.2 | Solana, meme coins, and tether are the new BCCI. |
| 0:36.8 | I always think of the transformation of money into the digital realm as a |
| 0:43.6 | really positive thing and that I get why people don't like CBDCs, but I don't understand why |
| 0:53.2 | people wouldn't like something like Tether. |
| 0:55.5 | So if you don't mind, explain to people what BCCI was and what you mean when you say that Solana, meme coins, and Tether are the new BCCI. Yeah. So BCCI was basically this bank that was set up as a, publicly as a development bank. It was about essentially banking the unbanked in the global south that was sort of the framing of it.

| 1:31.2 | including laundering profits for arms trafficking, drag trafficking. |
| 1:35.9 | It came under scrutiny as part of the Iran-Contra scandal, and of course, it collapsed in 1991, |
| 1:41.4 | and was the subject of a Senate report that I would encourage people to read |

| 1:51.8 | you know, engaging in brazen financial crimes on behalf of intelligence agencies all over the |
| 1:56.3 | world and also drug cartels, but they were also engaged in the sex trafficking of minors, specifically |
| 2:03.7 | to patronize some elite families of the United Arab Emirates and were taking prepubescent |
| 2:11.6 | children to be abused by these people. That is in the Senate report, so that's literally not |
| 2:16.1 | a conspiracy theory. It was written. |
| 2:19.7 | It's an official Senate report based on official evidence brought before the Senate. Okay. So it's a very |
| 2:25.4 | significant story. Almost no one remembers it because it was essentially covered up by William Barr when he was |
| 2:30.2 | attorney general the first time. And he was also, of course, engaged in pardoning and sort of |
