#39: The Control Grid, Digital Money & Financial Freedom with Catherine Austin Fitts

On today’s episode of The Ultimate Assist, John Stockton and Ken Ruettgers sit down with Catherine Austin Fitts, former Assistant Secretary of Housing, investment banker, and founder of the Solari Report. Known for her fearless analysis of global finance, Catherine exposes how central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), “stablecoins,” and programmable money are paving the way for unprecedented social control.

She explains why the Covid era was the largest wealth transfer in history, how government and corporate collusion drains family wealth, and why Main Street was deliberately shut down in favor of Wall Street consolidation. From the surveillance state to financial censorship, Catherine connects the dots on how technology, banking, and policy converge into a digital prison.

But this episode isn’t just about warning signs—it’s about solutions. Catherine offers practical strategies for preserving financial sovereignty, from banking locally and using cash to investing in people, food, and real community wealth. Her message is clear: freedom in health, food, and money are inseparable—and the future depends on us reclaiming them.
