It should be noted that Byron Donalds, while speaking at a Collier County Republican Executive Committee meeting back in 2022, while speaking from the podium to the assembled Executive Committee, said that we as citizens were "just going to have to get used to using central bank digital currency." I was at that meeting and heard him say it with my own ears.

Thank you for reporting what you personally heard. It should be very disturbing to any Republican or Conservative considering a wasted vote on Donalds.

Ken, if you read my comments below, you will see that this goes along with his comments about making Florida the banking capital of the world. There is much more I can say about this but JPM Latin America was already project CBDC in the next couple of years which is why JPM is doubling its office space in Miami.

Very much surprised at this reveal. Details matter and his advocacy of mRNA is an absolute deal breaker. Saying that Jan 6th ers got what they deserve makes my blood boil

M Gaetz well suited. Ladapo is already Surgeon Gen, a job he does admirably.

I am really starting to wonder if anyone is actually willing to do the right thing and let the cards fall where they may.

I have a hard time knowing Trump supports the worst people, and the worst ideas. He can't not know about the poisoned shots. Just like he can't not know about the fires, the weather modification, and all the new patents that are coming out for new mRNA "vaccines". I am sick and tired of people giving Trump a hard pass when it comes to these issues. They think he's just ignorant. I know he's very intelligent, knows exactly what's going on, and is in on ALL of it! One day the truth about Trump will be revealed, and there will be no more wiggle room to deny it. The cracks are already starting to show. This, coming from a person who voted for Trump three times.

What was that video or quote of him in his first term asking why somebody did not tell him they were in a live exercise?

Kathleen Taylor's avatar

I don't have the quote at hand but I do recall watching that press conference you're referring to, live.

I believe it was Mike Pompeo who made the announcement about the "live exercise" that President Trump reacted to with visible and spoken surprise.

Thanks. I want that link.

Still would like to know who activated it and under what approved by Congress policy

If you support any candidate, including Byron Donalds, just ask one question. What action have they done to help others?

Here too, in Sweden, the poisonous bioweapons are being propagandized by the medical personnel as if nothing happened. And this after all the seminars, the suing, the books, the articles, the demonstrations and the lectures in t he U S. I guess they live in a dream world without any interest whatsoever to look outside the now dated, prescribed bubble. Or are the cognitively hurt already?

Joe, I will add to your comments that Byron wants to make Florida the banking capital of the world. While that is probably not within his hands to do I know that JPM is doubling their office space in Miami. If the money center banks have more power in Florida, that suggest to me that Byron Donalds does not want a State Sovereign Bank. I know many are thrilled about US being the crypto capital but I am not. This is a backdoor into a digital system which means that all transactions will be programmable and traceable . I'm attaching an article about this very subject: https://brownstone.org/articles/the-stablecoin-trap-the-backdoor-to-total-financial-control/

Jimmy Petronis was in the process of promoting a feasibility study for a State Sovereign Bank, but I'm not sure where that stands at the moment since he was recommended for Matt Goetz's seat.

I don't live in FL so it's not my decision but I appreciate the input about him. I believe Trump endorses people that have been loyal to him as the main criteria.

No.

Trump employs the utmost strategy in everything he does. He is the ultimate out-of-the-box thinker.

He, of course, considers loyalty when he endorses someone, but that is not the only factor. He has a pretty good handle on who’s dirty, but sometimes he puts them in the spotlight.

He can’t overnight save America and the world; he needed to win their hearts and minds and souls, first.

He was up against the most powerful evil in 2020.

Now, he has almost destroyed them.

It’s coming. It’s almost here.

Prepare.

This information was new to me also. Thank you for posting. I am an avid supporter of Matt Gaetz, and believe he would be a dream governor for our State of Florida. He possesses rare and effective oratory abilities and the intelligence to do a great job for all Floridians. I personally believe he is destined to be our President in the future.

Byron Donalds does not appears to be particularly intelligent. He's also too full of himself and seems to believe he has a DEI pass to Republican prominence in government despite being evidently ill-prepared.

Thanks for all that information regarding Donalds. I was previously not aware of those facts. He and DeSantis seem to be 2 peas in a pod. Both push the clot shots and both are Israeli sympathizers. I will vote against both. I do like Matt Gaetz.

I believe you are incorrect with your opinion. I know for a fact he is more capable than Mrs. DeSantis and I favor him over Gaetz.

You are a better person than me Dr Sansone. I am DONE with willful ignorance and stupidity. I just can’t wrap my head around the flawed mindset that continues flourish.

Thank you for covering BD. I had no idea he was that paid off but obviously he is. Matt Gaetz has my vote!

Also have not seem him advocating for the Quaxs??

I am reporting on what he said in that meeting I was at. I believe he made a similiar statement at a town hall meeting in Estero Florida in late August of 2021 but I have not found the video.

thanks!! possibly why it seemed so surprising

If someone speaks out both sides of mouth, definitley disqualifies

He may have matured and changed his tune but if so that must be crystal clear. Still thinking Gaetz...

Warrior Widows want to know what his thoughts are about the deadly Hospital Protocol deaths. DeSantis sold us out and locked up anything Covid with complete and total immunity with SB72.

If you believed Biden got 81 million votes when thirty percent of the dumbest of dumb democrat voters did not even believe it in 2020, you do not deserve the support of anyone. Those people who "stormed" the capital, prayed, picked up trash, stayed between the rope lines, and took selfies are of the same mold as those who founded this nation.

Or in this case, since good old Bryon believes Biden won, and they are criminals. The predicate for all of their actions was the stolen election. No steal, no Jan 6th protest. So in the legal sense, all of them are guilty of nothing, hence the blanket pardons.

This is one of the things that blows my mind about Trump, but then again, I am smart enough to recognize it is what makes him capable of doing a job that there is no way I could do. I would be out to destroy ever single person that voted for stolen electors or in this case like a moron said Biden won.

Not Trump, he sets stuff like that aside and moves on. To be honest, it is a miracle our nation has created men who can do this. I just wish he were a little more like the fools on the left make him out to be.

By the way, I also forgot to mention, and it’s important: Byron failed to disclose with his congressional candidate filings, and also with his FINRA filings, that he was a convicted felon, having been convicted of felony bribery (of all things) while in his 20s. Somehow he managed to get that conviction, along with a felony drug conviction either sealed or expunged. Regardless, when asked a direct question of “have you ever been convicted of a felony,” if the answer is yes, then the answer is “yes.” Period. This is all verifiable and was even the subject of an ethics complaint levied against him.
