Gates plus Pelosi plus the Fed = 0 dollars in your bank account. | 16 June

June 17, 2021 View in Browser | Unsubscribe Here's an important message from one of our partners: Dear Reader, I just got my hands on a leaked plan from Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, and it's dark folks.   Do you have $5,000 in a savings account? Well then you're at risk. Pelosi's plan has the full power of the Federal Reserve behind it. Microsoft, the Clinton Foundation, Visa and JP Morgan are all behind it too…   All evidence suggests her plan may already be under way.   The clock is ticking, you've got only a few months left. Click here. See my findings before it's too late… Stay vigilant,   Nick Giambruno  Chief Analyst, Casey Research P.S. Folks it doesn't matter who won the election.  Both sides of the aisle are onboard with Pelosi's plan including this top Trump financial advisor.  This email was sent to edwardlorilla1986.paxforex@blogger.com because you made a great decision to receive our Digest Daily.
