NOTE:
About a year ago I was in my car scanning the radio dial looking for some good music, which is a tough search for this audiophile. I found the WSM country radio station in Nashville, on the AM dial, that played older country music I liked. But reception was poor. I then found the Glenn Beck show, and he was talking about this subject. A new subject for me, that initially sounded like a conspiracy theory ... but I ended up listening for an hour. Beck's logic was flawless. I never listened to Glenn Beck before that day, or after, because I can't pick up the station inside my home.

"David Sacks, Founding COO of PayPal, joined Glenn Beck on the radio program to reveal the three ingredients needed to implement a social credit system that are already well established in the United States.
Sacks also explained how his alma mater — PayPal — has already partnered with left-wing groups that blacklist Americans believed to have "extreme views" and how there are other financial institutions who are following suit.
"If you think it's bad to deny people the right to free speech and to participate in the online marketplace of ideas,
how much worse is it to deny them access in the new economy,
to the way that they can buy food and medicine and other products for their families .
.. it is really a very severe form of punishment and social control," Sacks began.
"Let's identify the elements, the ingredients of this toxic stew that already exist [in America.]
First of all, you've got Big Tech companies like my alma mater, PayPal, that have been freezing accounts based on working with partisan political groups to shut people out of the financial system.
That practice is already taking place," he said.
"Second, you've got state of emergency.
In states like California where I live, the governor is still operating under a state of emergency.
He has invoked emergency powers that never seem to end, even though we just had a Super Bowl where 30, 000 people were sitting elbow to elbow without any mask on, and yet we're still in a state of emergency.
"Third ... the Department of Homeland Security has now defined 'misinformation' about COVID or the election to be a contributor to the terrorist threat levels.
In other words, misinformation in their view contributes to terrorism," Sacks continued. "
So, we have now all the ingredients
… politicians invoking fake state of emergencies.
You've got big tech companies shutting people out through the political system,
and you've got this very scary and dangerous redefinition of terrorism to effectively apply to domestic political descent."

... I tried following Glenn Beck’s advice.
Here are some takeaways from my own personal experience.
Switching to a Local Bank
1. Know your why.
You have to know why you are doing what you are doing.
“Glenn Beck told me to,” isn’t good enough.
Research your current bank and its connection to ESG, WEF, EDI, and all the other questionable acronyms.
I bank with Wells Fargo.
Here is why I decided it may be time to part ways:
Wells Fargo embraces ESG, which means they toe the global line.
To defeat the fast-approaching globalization, we have to take the air out of this centralized power balloon — starting with our money.
2. Talk with your family!
This step is CRUCIAL.
You may feel rushed for time, but you and your family have to make these choices together.
Switching banks takes effort on everyone's part, and will likely be an inconvenience.
Avoid friction by working as a team.
3. Find a bank.
Option 1: Ask a friend. If you are part of a community that shares your values, lean on each other.
Your friends may have already done the leg work.
OR
Option 2: Use the Internet.
My favorite online bank locator is Icba.org (click the tab “bank locator.”)
Banklocal.info is pretty good too, but a bit dense.
Then, you have to call the banks and ask:
Hello, my name is ______.
I am looking to switch my money
to a locally owned bank. Is your bank
connected to a larger bank in any way?
Also, what is your bank's stance on ESG’s?
Yes. I will hold, thank you.
Calling your Legislators
1. See if your state has already passed a related bill, or has one in the works.
Watch for bills that are labeled “anti-ESG” but are only designed to protect certain industries.
Texas has a bill like this that only protects certain energy companies.
2. Find your State Representatives.
You can find your State Senators and Representatives pretty easily online, or you can call your State Capitol.
Pick the Representative who appears most sympathetic to your cause.
You may have to go outside your district for this.
If so, make plans to contact both your Representative and the Representative who is most likely to support you.
3. Call.
Know your information.
Be incredibly kind and confident.
Follow-up via call and email.
(They will ignore you.)
Hello, does Representative
______ have any plans to propose
or support anti-ESG legislation?
This is very important to me.
I did my research and saw we
have/have not passed a bill
on this topic in the past.
I am hopeful that we will see a bill
that protects all citizens from ESG,
not just specific industries.
Investing
As a young person, I invested just in time
for Glenn to say it’s time to divest.
That put me in a real pickle.
Here is my advice:
1. Find out where your money is going.
My husband and I have an investment
account that is managed by a financial advisor.
I read The Great Reset (which you
need to do,by the way) and thought, “I should check
those investments.”
Almost all my investments were BlackRock!
I recoiled in horror and went to text our advisor.
Then I stopped.
What the heck do I say?
2. Talk to your investment advisor
In an interview for Glenn's podcast,
investment expert and New York Times
best selling author Carol Roth
encouraged people to work
with an advisor who shares your values.
Well, up until basically yesterday,
my only investing value was "make money."
I knew I had ground to make up.
I trust my advisor, but he isn’t up
on the Great Reset, so I took the time
to explain to him that I want to invest
in alignment with my values.
He taught me how he arranges my portfolio, which I knew NOTHING about. It was really overwhelming trying to find every Great Reset-proof company, so we decided to take baby steps.
Step one for us is determining which companies we do NOT want to be investing in. I can handle that! That is as far as I have made it so far. I will keep you updated on my journey as I go. I promise, you can do it, and it does get easier."
