‘Oh, guess what, nobody gets any retirement. DOD stole [$20 trillion of taxpayer money]…&…sent it to Basel, Switzerland’?”

Catherine Austin Fitts: “You think DOD is going to say, ‘Oh, guess what, nobody gets any retirement. We stole [$20 trillion of taxpayer money]…&…sent it to Basel, Switzerland’?”

“The pandemic was a military operation…implemented by the people who stole the $20 trillion.”

This clip of Fitts, a former Assistant Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, investment banker, and founder of the Solari Report, is taken from an interview with Dr. Jane Ruby posted to The Dr. Jane Ruby Rumble channel today, June 18, 2025.

For reference, Fitts is describing how she and MSU professor Mark Skidmore discovered that the Department of Defense has stolen at least $20+ TRILLION of U.S. taxpayer money. (That number was as of 2015, and it is likely much larger now.)

Fitts notes that the DOD was also in charge of “the pandemic” here in the U.S. and that COVID—including the supposed “vaccines” for the disease (see full interview)—have been used to lower life expectancy in order to avoid a reckoning regarding Americans’ missing pension money.

“The moment they started the financial coup, they started to implement policies that made life expectancy go down. Because if you can’t balance the budget by putting more funding behind the retirement system, the only way you can balance the— Well, you can, you can extend retirement, the date of retirement, or you can lower life expectancy, or both. But that’s— You have to— if the population and the Congress refuse to do the financially responsible thing, then your only other choice is to is to lower life expectancy.

“He [Mark Skidmore] was like, I don’t understand what you’re talking about. So when the pandemic hit, I knew exactly what it was. Because if the pandemic was a military operation, it is being implemented by the people who stole the $20 trillion.

“Do you really think that DOD is going to say, ‘Oh, guess what, nobody gets any retirement. We stole all the money… and we sent it to Basel, Switzerland’? Or wherever they’ve got a stockpile, or we sent it offshore, we send it wherever the money went, whatever it funded.

“The American people, if you’re the President of the United States, every day, every week, the primary dealers working with the New York Fed go out and borrow money. So they sell treasury bonds and treasury bills to your IRAs and your retirement accounts and your pension funds. Okay. So I sell a treasury bond to a pension fund. And so you work all your life, you put your cash in your pension fund. The pension fund buys a Treasury bond, the money goes into treasury, the bank account at the New York Fed for Treasury. And then it disappears out the back door.

“When Dr. Skidmore documented and published a study in 2017 that 21 trillion was missing, the outstanding debt of the United States at that moment was 21 trillion. The balance sheet. So do we have too much debt or do we have a bank robbery?

“But here’s the thing. As a citizen now, my pension fund is not an asset, it’s an IOU for myself as a taxpayer. So I’ve put cash into my pension fund, and my cash has been converted to an IOU that I owe myself as a taxpayer, without your consent. Because the bonds have a call on all of our assets.

“If you’re the Department of Defense, do you really want to tell somebody, oh, you know, we disappeared 20 trillion of your money, and so, you know, so the question is, how do you manage that situation? Anyway, so, yeah, you know, if DOD stole your money, I think it was, you know, that money disappeared out of DoD accounts at the New York Fed….”
