American Strategic Deception Bureau

　But on the other hand, General Ferry King, who changed into women's clothes, made Dr. Kissinger's glasses and jaw drop.

　According to the American aesthetic standards of the mid-twentieth century, as a man, Fieri's appearance was not very handsome, but rather a bit too feminine - he was not tall enough, his eyes were squinty, his nose was straight but too small, and his eyebrows were not thick enough.

　But once he donned women's clothing, all his flaws transformed into strengths. Marita's meticulously drawn eyebrows gave him an unusually gentle and tranquil appearance. These, paired with his soft, slender, slightly upturned almond-shaped eyes, delicate nose, rosy, slightly thin lips, and two wisps of hair scratching his face, gave him an air of tranquility. He drew a sense of familiarity, yet felt mysterious and distant.

　Originally too short for a man, he now looks incredibly suitable when dressed as a girl. Furthermore, the elegant and dignified temperament revealed between his eyebrows and eyes cannot be concealed even by the vulgar attire of a prostitute. Instead, it creates a kind of contrasting cuteness that is both pure and lustful.

　At first, Kissinger couldn't believe that this elegant and gentle silver-haired beauty was actually his old partner!

　It was not until they entered the room that Fili rolled his eyes and spoke in a male voice again. The shocked Kissinger had to admit that the beauty in front of him was actually the commander of the Space Force. He said something that Marita deeply agreed with - "Brother Fili, you may be more successful as a woman than as a man."

　"Ah, that's definitely not possible. If I become a woman, Marita will be taken away by some bastard!"

　Fili answered with a smile, and at the same time reached out and pinched Marita's slender waist as she was clapping and cheering, making Marita scream.

　In this way, the two of them laughed and joked while checking Dr. Kissinger's suite. They removed a bug that had been installed in the suitcase at some unknown time. Then they kicked off their uncomfortable high heels, sat down on the bed, and asked Dr. Kissinger.

　"Doctor, how are your negotiations with those vampires on Wall Street going? Is there still hope for a peaceful resolution to the Tri-State Rebellion?"

　"You better tell me first, what are you and Marita thinking? Why did you dress up as a call girl to meet me?"

　Dr. Kissinger stroked his chin and asked with interest, "Also, could you please switch back to the female voice? Hearing a man's voice coming from such a beautiful woman makes me feel really uncomfortable."

　"It's simple. If you succeed in the negotiation, you'll invite two call girls to the hotel to celebrate. If you fail in the negotiation, you'll invite two call girls to the hotel to vent your stress. In this way, doesn't our encounter and solitude become very reasonable?"

　Fili rolled his eyes again, but still obeyed, pinching his throat and quietly casting a spell on himself, changing his voice to a female one. "New York is now the territory of the rebels. We must hide our identities. At the same time, we must have a suitable reason to come to you, and then we have to dismiss others and talk in private. So, disguising myself as a call girl to talk to you privately is obviously a good way to contact you. After all, as an agent, I am not afraid of losing face.

　Of course, there might be a more appropriate and more covert way to connect, but in my haste, I couldn't think of it at the moment - so this is the only way."

　"But when you leave the hotel, you will probably still be followed by someone." Kissinger pointed out a BUG.

　"Don't worry about that. If there are any mice following you when you go out, Marita and I will find a way to get rid of them."

　Phiri said confidently, "As long as no one finds an excuse to interrupt us when we are discussing things, that's enough. Well, Dr. Kissinger, how did your talk with Mr. Nelson Rockefeller and his wealthy friends go?"

　Have you had sufficient communication with the financial backers of the Congressional Army this time? Can the civil war crisis be resolved through a peaceful negotiation?

　“In short, your visit to New York this time

　Did the deal work out, or did it fail? Marita summarized the key points.

　"Unfortunately, the talks have basically broken down. My former benefactor, Mr. Nelson Rockefeller, was very sincere about negotiating with President Nixon. But he couldn't control the entire Rockefeller family, and the Rockefeller family couldn't control all of Wall Street."

　Dr. Kissinger spread his hands, took off his glasses from his nose, and wiped them carefully with a flannel. "The Jewish financial capital group on Wall Street... Oh, I really don't know what they are thinking? These people simply think of themselves as omnipotent gods..."

　--According to Dr. Kissinger, the heads of the more established "old money" families on Wall Street, such as Morgan and Rockefeller, are generally still manageable. At least they are willing to admit that they have lost this game and agree to make appropriate concessions and compensation, but they are unwilling to give up too much.

　But the younger generations of these families and the mad-dog Jewish financial capital groups don’t even acknowledge the most basic premise that they are losers!

　They even turned around and clamored for President Nixon to apologize to them! They asked the White House to beg for forgiveness from Wall Street and the Federal Reserve!

　Initially, Dr. Kissinger thought the other side was using a "good cop, bad cop" negotiation tactic to secure a better deal. But later, he was stunned to discover that the Jewish financial group on Wall Street actually believed they hadn't lost, and couldn't possibly lose!

　"According to the current mainstream view among Wall Street's financial elite, the old Congress that was driven to Philadelphia may no longer be considered a legitimate Congress. But President Nixon, who came to power unelected and through violence, is also an illegitimate president."

　Kissinger said in a very tired tone, "They believe that on the surface, the power comparison between President Nixon and the Congressional Army is 47 states versus 3 states, which seems to be a huge disparity and the outcome is already decided. But in fact, the vast majority of states now simply do not support Congress. But they also do not recognize the legitimacy of his presidency! The Pentagon also has the same neutral attitude.

　So, at the moment, it is actually two states and one special district on the president's side against three states on the Capitol Army's side, and the Capitol Army has the upper hand.

　Since the Congressional Army is the dominant force, Nixon has no right to make conditions. It should be Wall Street that makes the conditions for the White House to surrender!

　——After hearing this "optimistic analysis" full of fallacies and heresies, Firi was speechless for a moment.

　Indeed, before being recognized by the new Congress, President Nixon's status was legally equivalent to that of the former "American Emperor" Norton I. He was basically a self-proclaimed president - he had neither the endorsement of a majority of the votes nor the support of the law.

　What’s even worse is that unlike military strongmen like Napoleon or Kemal, Nixon did not have a powerful army to support him.

　The reason why he can still look like a president and sit in the White House giving orders is entirely due to the inertia of American politics.

　But if someone really exposed this "Emperor's New Clothes"... then I believe President Nixon would be in a very embarrassing situation.

　On the other hand, President Nixon's position is undoubtedly precarious and could be blown away by the wind if he's not careful. But isn't Wall Street's current situation like a sand castle built on the beach?

　Indeed, the "deep state," currently tied to Wall Street financial groups, is pervasive and deeply entrenched within the federal government. But the federal government itself is now on the verge of collapse. Can this parasitic "deep state" still survive independently?

　Just like in the late Tang Dynasty, the emperor and the court in Chang'an were all in turmoil. What's the use of you, a bunch of eunuchs, having such great power?

　In short, after their discussion, Phiri and Dr. Kissinger agreed that even with the US at this point, Wall Street still sought to pressure the White House, allowing capital to continue to dominate the political system, completely ignoring the risk of the federal system's collapse...

　A group of people who claim to be the smartest in the world, but behave so greedily and short-sightedly, can only be described as "blinded by greed."

　Is now the time to keep up the pressure on the White House? Aren't you afraid that after you defeat the president, you'll also destroy the federal government?

　Seriously, if the American political order truly collapsed completely, entering a period of imperial civil war, with everyone vying for victory through force, wouldn't you, the multi-billionaires and wealthy families, be the first targets of looting? This has countless historical precedents, dating back to the Roman era!

　From Augustus to Constantine the Great, from the "Year of the Four Emperors" to the "Year of the Five Emperors", whenever the Roman civil war broke out, the wealthy and powerful people in Rome who were as rich as a country were always treated as ATMs by the military leaders. No matter what your background was, you were all squeezed dry.

　Do you really think the "Public Enemies List" is just a joke? It's a cleansing artifact that can make a son kill his father!

　Now, President Nixon is ostensibly an enemy of Wall Street, but in reality he is the only one who will genuinely protect Wall Street and has a huge common interest with Wall Street! Because he doesn't want the federal government to fall apart! Why can't you Jews tolerate each other for the sake of your country?

　Importing energy from Russia—everyone is trying to please a certain old naughty boy!

　No matter how much of this is just for face, just being able to make the whole world give you face makes you the best person in the world, right?

　Chapter 491: Wall Street tycoons are so arrogant

　Unfortunately, it is almost impossible to persuade a group of selfish Jewish bankers to "put the overall situation first" and "put up for the country".

　Even though Dr. Kissinger had talked his mouth off and used facts and reason eloquently, he was unable to change the ideological imprint in their minds.

　After all, for these financial vampires in New York, asking them to hand over the Federal Reserve is really no different from asking for their lives!

　- On the surface, the Federal Reserve is composed of 12 federal savings banks, representing the interests of wealthy people in various regions across the country. Congressmen at the time believed that this institutional design could limit the dominance of the New York banking industry and its control over the Federal Reserve.

　With twelve banks sharing the highest financial power, the financial interests of other regions in the country can be guaranteed to a certain extent.

　But in reality, of the 12 banks that make up the Federal Reserve, the New York Fed controls the largest amount of capital, while the other 11 banks are merely a front. Therefore, the issuance of U.S. currency and credit has always been highly concentrated in the New York area—or, in other words, manipulated by the Jewish tycoons on Wall Street.

　From the day it was born, the Federal Reserve has been Wall Street's Federal Reserve. It is not the White House's Federal Reserve, and certainly not the American people's Federal Reserve!

　It is not only the most important core asset of Wall Street, but also the lifeblood of Wall Street. There is no way that the president of the White House will let it be in his hands!

　Otherwise, how will financial groups be able to sit in New York and control the entire United States, and then influence and intervene in the whole world?

　What's more, they are very confident that as long as they control the Federal Reserve, they will be invincible and can make Washington kneel down!

　Therefore, the Jewish financial groups on Wall Street and the younger generation of traditional old money families insisted on riding on the head of the White House and issuing orders, forcing President Nixon to kneel down and apologize to them and hand over powerful positions in the government with both hands. Only then would they be willing to cooperate with Nixon and temporarily maintain the dignity of Washington.

　Some of the most radical members of Jewish groups are even sending lobbyists to the Pentagon, believing that as long as the Pentagon sends troops to the White House and the generals of the Joint Chiefs of Staff kill the president, everything will be "back on track" - they are actually thinking about continuing to send large numbers of US troops to the Middle East after ending the civil unrest in the United States, chopping off the claws of the Soviet polar bear, and by the way, creating a "Greater Israel"!

　"Wall Street wants to persuade the Pentagon to launch a military coup? Isn't this going to be another mutiny plot like the one in 1933, with the cheapskates on one side and the smart guys on the other, each trying to deceive the other, only to be exposed by the news media and humiliated in front of the whole world?"

　After listening to Dr. Kissinger's description of the mutiny conspiracy, Firi curled his lips and complained.

　Speaking of which, this is not the first time in the 20th century in the United States that Wall Street has planned a military coup to overthrow the president.

　The last time was in 1933, when President Franklin Roosevelt had just come to power during the devastating years of the Great Depression and was about to implement the New Deal, a drastic plan to restart the American economy. Wall Street financiers and other major American capitalists were terrified, fearing Roosevelt would implement socialism, abolish their privileges, confiscate their wealth and distribute it to the common people. So they decided to strike first and overthrow Roosevelt by force!

　In this way, Wall Street bankers and representatives of some other aristocratic families began to secretly contact the military and veterans groups in the spring of 1933, attempting to plan a military coup, destroy the existing federal government system, and establish an American fascist regime that would protect big capital.

　The list of those behind the conspiracy was quite impressive. The list that was later made public included Chase Bank, General Motors, Standard Oil, the DuPont family, and a group of Jewish financiers on Wall Street.

　They claim to have raised billions of dollars and contacted 50 veterans and private soldiers. As long as a reputable senior general in the Pentagon stands up and calls for action, they will be able to march into Washington in a mighty force and destroy the American democratic system in one fell swoop!

　The problem is that these capitalist bosses talk a lot and make big promises, but they never actually take out any money.

　After all, these are a bunch of super misers who are unwilling to pay for prostitution out of their own pockets and only want to spend other people's money!

　Of course, the US military generals were unwilling to be taken advantage of by these vampires for free, and immediately used empty talk about soldiers being always loyal to the Constitution to get away with it.

　——The two people in the military who were in charge of this matter were Marine Corps Major General Butler and President George H.W. Bush’s father, George H.W. Bush.

　From this we can see that we are all thousand-year-old foxes, so why play Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio?

　It would be fine if you guys on Wall Street cheated the common people and the middle class, but why did you go so far as to cheat the Pentagon?

　So, in 1933, the Pentagon and Wall Street engaged in a several-round tug-of-war over the issue of launching a mutiny to overthrow President Roosevelt. The military refused to release the hawk until it saw the rabbit, while Wall Street was reluctant to give up the money and just wanted to fool the military into working in vain. In the end, they accomplished nothing except empty talk.

　Instead, FBI Director Hoover got wind of the situation and issued a private warning, thus aborting the plot of a military coup.

　Wait until 1

　In 934, the mutiny plot was directly exposed and published in newspapers, becoming a laughing stock throughout the country.

　Honestly, the Wall Street idiots back then weren't nearly as daring as the Shanghai bankers of 1927. At least the Shanghai bosses actually gave Chiang Kai-shek money! Without that massive sum, it would have been difficult for Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek to launch the April 12th counter-revolutionary coup and reverse the revolutionary situation.

　Of course, the Shanghai bankers who gave money to Chiang Kai-shek did not have a good ending. They were soon exploited by Chiang Kai-shek and became penniless.

　Perhaps, it was precisely because of this previous experience that the American tycoons in 1933 were able to make such grandiose claims. In reality, they were unwilling to actually pay, fearing that they would lose both their money and their own lives. But the problem is, soldiers are not so easily fooled. Who would risk their lives for you if there is no benefit?

　From this we can see that although the scholar’s ​​rebellion would fail in ten years, the banker’s rebellion would probably not succeed in thirty years, right?

　"If a military coup like this, which is a joke, fails, it might be okay, but if it does succeed, the consequences will be even more disastrous!

　If the military really killed President Nixon, there was a 70% chance that the federal government would fall apart!

　By then, what use will the Fed’s right to issue currency and other financial privileges be? The dollar itself will become worthless!

　Dr. Kissinger nodded and said, "In fact, in response to the Federal Reserve's recent unauthorized issuance of banknotes and excessive printing of US dollars, more than 20 states across the United States have announced that they are preparing to issue their own local currencies!

　President Nixon was originally very dissatisfied with this, but if the White House failed to gain control of the Federal Reserve, President Nixon might have to hold his nose and admit that each state could print its own money. If that day really came, dozens of US dollars would be circulating in the US market at the same time!

　God, I can’t help but imagine the chaos: California Bear Dollars, Rhode Island Anchor Dollars, South Carolina Palmetto Dollars, Alaska Big Dipper Dollars, Mississippi Magnolia Dollars… er, and Disney’s Mickey Mouse Dollars…”

　Phiri basically agreed with Dr. Kissinger's "horrifying imagination" and found it very interesting.

　As a federal state, the United States is essentially a collection of autonomous entities, a sort of beefed-up European Union and a weakened Soviet Union. Therefore, the central-local relations of Eastern authoritarian states cannot be applied—for example, not only the states, but even Walt Disney has the power to print money!

　In fact, a similar situation of the simultaneous and excessive issuance of N types of US dollar bills actually occurred in the United States during the Western film era in the 19th century.

　At the time, any American bank with sufficient cash reserves could print its own banknotes and release them into circulation. The result was hundreds of different types of US dollar bills circulating simultaneously. At first glance, it resembled the chaotic era of the Republic of China, when warlords were printing money in unison.

　But at that time, the US dollar was still on the gold standard, and the real US dollar was actually gold coins. Those US dollars that could not be exchanged for gold coins were just waste paper.

　In other words, as long as the US dollars issued by your bank can be exchanged for gold coins, they are real money and you can print them in any shape you want.

　Therefore, the US dollar bills at that time were actually checks, and the bounce of checks would only affect the reputation of the issuing bank and would not damage the US dollar itself.

　Of course, at that time, American banks frequently went bankrupt, and bankers often absconded with funds. For ordinary people, keeping money in small banks was as risky as speculating in stocks. And keeping money in a more reliable large bank not only offered very low interest rates, but might even charge you a storage fee!

　But now the US dollar has been decoupled from gold and has become a credit currency. If states and companies continue to issue US dollars indiscriminately...

　By then, the US dollar will become the toy money in the Monopoly game.

　In fact, according to Fili, even if President Nixon lacked the courage to launch a mutually destructive "everyone can print US dollars" move, he could have followed the example of the medieval Japanese shogunate and issued a "benevolent decree"—announcing from the White House that all loans issued by New York banks would be void, with no repayments required! This would have directly punctured Wall Street's financial system.

　What? Capitalist countries must protect private property from infringement?

　Well, there's that saying, but New York is a rebel state right now! The property of rebels is not protected by law!

　When the Civil War broke out in the United States, President Lincoln declared the emancipation of all slaves in the rebellious Southern states. Wasn't this a serious violation of the private property of Southern slave owners? But as a means of punishment for rebellious regions, who can say that this is absolutely not allowed?

　Therefore, President Nixon, who was forced into a corner, could easily cite the precedent of President Lincoln freeing the slaves and announce the cancellation of loans from New York banks!

　I believe this will surely make the entire nation overjoyed and excited, and from now on they will recognize Nixon as the real president!

　After all, burning IOUs has always been a great way to win over the people, second only to dividing up the land.

　As for the American people who have been keen on over-consumption since the beginning of the 20th century, they have suffered from loans for generations.

　The burden of mortgages, car loans, student loans, consumer loans, and debts from failed investments was already a common phenomenon across American society, even if it wasn't as severe as it is in the 21st century.

　If Nixon could get them

　If everyone could instantly become debt-free, it is estimated that at least 70% of the citizens in the United States would instantly become fanatical fans of President Nixon. The level of enthusiasm and initiative in the United States would absolutely be off the charts - who wouldn't want to remove the mountain of loans from their heads?

　"Like Lincoln freed the slaves, abolishing all loans on Wall Street? This, this, this is really an amazing idea."

　After hearing Fieri's casual and dishonest tricks, Dr. Kissinger couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat - although he had said before that if President Nixon was forced into a corner, he might admit that each state had the right to issue US dollars.

　But this is a tactic of mutual destruction, and it is heading towards the rhythm of a big disbandment. It is equivalent to everyone having to give up their lives and overturn the table together.

　So, normally speaking, even if President Nixon faced assassination attempts and mutinies every day, it would be difficult for him to make such a decision.

　But if President Nixon followed President Lincoln's precedent of "emancipating the slaves" and "emancipated the debts" of all American citizens, and packaged this as a punishment for the rebellious states... this would be hard to resist: if slaves can be emancipated, why can't debt slaves be emancipated?

　Speaking of it, it is probably difficult to say which fate is more tragic, the fate of black slaves or debt slaves!

　If President Nixon wanted to go further, he could have even reorganized the Federal Reserve, kicking out the most powerful New York Fed and its "accomplice" Philadelphia Fed. As punishment for New York and Philadelphia's participation in the rebellion, he would have left only the remaining 10 banks to form a new Federal Reserve...

　So, will the remaining 10 Federal Reserve banks cheer or cling to the New York Fed's dominance?

　The answer is obviously self-evident - competitors are enemies!

　If it really gets to this point, Wall Street will probably be finished! The financial center of the United States will be moved to Chicago or San Francisco!

　In short, after listening to Fieri's above ideas, Dr. Kissinger thought about it again, and then the more he thought about it, the more dizzy he felt.
