How the US nabs and jails people simply because …
Extraordinary Arrests and Renditions:
We’ve just heard from Maria Zakharova that Russians are arrested in US friendly jurisdictions, thrown in jail, extradited to the US and with made-up charges and jailed for many years. This has reached a crescendo and not only for the Russians.
I’m posting this interview for a few reasons and to prove Maria Zakharova’s point.
This is a interview with Roger Ver, interviewed by Tucker Carlson. I’m posting this interview for a few reasons and to prove Maria Zakharova’s point.
Bitcoin arrests and history:
This has happened with Bitcoin over the years with those who understood the basic principles of cryptocurrencies (I’m not talking about the scams). Trump seems to want to ‘buy’ Bitcoin as a whole for the US to solve its economic woes. But the original developers of the business are mainly in jail, like Roger Ver. And the principles are forgotten with us remembering only the massive scams. What I am talking about here are the roots, where scamming was not necessary and the original Bitcoin in its design was hardened against scams.
Roger is a strong salesperson and a promoter. His energy level is always over the top. What he says in this interview is true. He is the first person who took Bitcoin at the time, and started using it as a peer to peer electronic cash, as it was supposed to be used. He was the first angel investor in many Bitcoin startups. In those days, all of the major computer companies started accepting Bitcoin as payment, until it was hijacked. In the early days Roger was known as “Bitcoin Jesus”. He wrote a book on Hijacking Bitcoin: The Hidden History of BTC and this is also accurate. Bitcoin itself was hijacked and remains hijacked. The Trump initiative is thus already a hijacked scheme for the exceptionally rich.
I am glad to see that Roger, even from jail in Majorca in Spain is still enthusiastic about the basic principle, peer to peer electronic cash. In the cryptocurrency world we have seen many of these jailings and extraordinary renditions. Roger is the current one but not the last one. John McAfee was also arrested in Spain on made-up charges, and died ‘mysteriously’ in prison. I am not sure where Kim Dotcom’s case stands, but he is a case in point.
Julian Assange:
The standout example of such a jailing of course is Julian Assange. We still have others in jail under this heinous misuse of the concept and missed sense of justice. This is pure power projection to destroy people and thus create examples of the falling empire’s power.
Besides the color that Roger (Carlson walks on eggshells), brings to the story, the video tells how innocently these extraordinary renditions work. Roger is currently not a US citizen and has not been a citizen for many years, but was arrested under the ‘everything fits’ tax laws, the same as John McAfee. There also is the Lawyer Reiner Fuelmich from the Covid era who is in jail in Germany, having been nabbed in Mexico, rushed to an airplane, after an innocent invitation to attend a meeting. Nobody asked the Mexicans as far as I am aware.
Maria Zakharova’s warning is timely, accurate and she points out the very danger of the empire on the loose.
Roger Ver is facing life in prison for revealing how the US government worked secretly to subvert cryptocurrency and prevent economic freedom. More people should hear this story.
