Kim and Producer Steve discuss the new administration’s rapid dismantling of Trump’s policies and which is having a negative impact on the people.  Kim notes there is a great awakening happening and a great tsunami of hope is on the horizon.  Lorne Levy, mortgage specialist with Polygon Financial Group, states that mortgage rates actually pulled back slightly.  Lorne explains the relationship between the 10-Year Treasury Note and mortgage rates.  Give Lorne a call at 303-880-8881 for professional assistance whether you are purchasing a new home or looking to refinance.

“Big business and big government like each other.”  United Airlines announces “Your Shot to Fly Sweepstakes,” their program to coerce people to get the COVID vaccination (experimental drug) even though it is not yet an approved by the FDA.  SB21-016 Protecting Preventive Health Care Coverage will raise costs for everyone as new health mandates are added to current coverage.  The Colorado State Supreme Court rules that lawmakers can raise property taxes without taxpayers’ consent per HB21-1164 Total Program Mill Levy Tax Credit.  At the same time, Aurora School Board states that they will keep all employees even if their job position is no longer needed.  So far 11 employees will be kept on at an anticipated cost of $2.7 million; that’s $245,000/employee.  Where is the fiscal responsibility for taxpayers?  Where is all this money going?  They are not paying teachers $245,000.

Jason McBride, Vice President for Presidential Wealth Management, explains the importance of having the proper plan in place.  One must consider the role of taxes and how to mitigate them.  Give Jason a call at 303-694-1600 to set up a planning session to analyze the best financial strategies for your personal requirements.

John Spence, Colorado State Director of the Electro-Magnetic Task Force, and Joe Weiss, international authority on cybersecurity, control systems and systems security, discuss the distinct difference between informational technology cybersecurity, Colonial Pipeline as an example, and operational cybersecurity.  Operational control systems (think power, electricity, water) need to be examined and unfortunately the Harris/Biden/Rice administration does not realize nor acknowledge its’ extreme importance to our lifestyle as control systems are left out of the recent Presidential Order signed May 12th.  Two hundred electric transformers in America have been purchased that were manufactured in China.  One is in Ault, Colorado.  We discovered that a transformer shipped from China to the port of Houston has a “back door” that allows China to bypass security and destroy the transformer.  Replacement parts would have to come from China and would take close to a year to reinstate the transformer.  Large electric transformers are the “Achilles’ heel” for the United States and if attacked would put us back to a 1850’s lifestyle.  Automation of our systems allows easy manipulation of our systems and we need a “Manhattan Project” to thwart this threat.  John and Joe encourage people to contact Rep. James Langevin from Rhode Island, as he has been the most proactive Congressional member to address control system security going back to 2007.
