No, Trump is not a clone or avatar.
Fulford is claiming Trump is an avatar or clone. I don’t think this is true. This is one of the many claims Fulford makes without any supporting evidence. Trump’s facial geometry and mannerisms suggest he hasn’t been replaced he has just gotten older. Similarly, Elon Musk is not an avatar. Videos edited to look like skin is pulled in strange ways are making the rounds to suggest or support the claim that some world figures are body doubles or masked. While there is a case to be made for the fact body doubles have been used most of these videos are not credible in my view. Additionally, there are AI videos making the rounds as well, one of which is of Ursula von der Leyen. Practice wise discernment, be vigilant.
Fulford’s Report:
The revolution that US President Donald Trump is carrying out will have far bigger effects than most people realize. It is going to lead to complete regime collapse in many countries with communist China the last domino to fall. This is not speculation, it is a mathematical certainty and it has a lot to do with Fort Knox as we will explain below.
The Department of Government Efficiency or DOGE has discovered that two thirds of government expenditures, $4.7 trillion, were untraceable. This money flow has now been cut off. As the financial tide recedes it is only a matter of time before we discover who is not wearing shorts. However, it is a good guess we are talking about Rockefeller/Rothschild fronts like BlackRock, State Street & Banking and Vanguard.
There is a lot more dark money than that in the US. We note Kash Patel is taking over the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. This is going to expose another monetary black hole. When you pay $20 for a bottle of whisky that only costs 50 cents to make, that extra money goes into a black hole known as the ATF. The same is true of tobacco and firearms. This is true of many other things like gasoline as well where hidden taxes go to hidden people.

What is being uncovered in the US is part of a worldwide parasitic network that has been sucking the lifeblood out of our planet for millennia. Most countries have similar huge flows of money created out of nothing or stolen via hidden taxes that go via untraceable routes to Switzerland.
Japan is another example. There have been massive protests in front of the Finance Ministry calling for it to be abolished. They preside over hidden taxes on tobacco, alcohol, salt etc. The ministry is under attack now because they are forcing the Japanese people into poverty through ever-growing tax burdens and engineered price hikes on necessities like food.
Last week Japanese member of Parliament Kazuhiro Haraguchi (原口一博) made a speech in front of the ministry that has gone viral in Japan. In it, he talks about a series of secret slush funds run by the ministry that send trillions of dollars to Switzerland, North Korea and other places. He notes for example the ministry just sent $60 billion to the crime state known as the Ukraine.
https://x.com/PoppinCoco/status/1893156179720970757?t=TLON7uTIjsLR4d_CFe1QHg&s=19
Haraguchi was a colleague of former MP Koki Ishii. Ishii was fatally stabbed with a sword in front of his house the day before he was going to testify in parliament about these secret budgets. His daughter says it took the ambulance more than an hour to arrive at his house and he died in her arms.
He is just one of hundreds of politicians who met similar fates. Haraguchi knows what he is talking about because he once supervised the Finance Ministry on behalf of Prime Minister Keizo Obuchi. Obuchi was also killed for investigating these budgets. Ryutaro Hashimoto was another Prime Minister who was killed by the Khazarian Mafia for looking into these slush funds. The KM finally put out resistance from Japanese politicians by taking Prime Minister Noboru Takeshita to Alaska where they hung him from a helicopter, chased him naked through the snow, and stomped on his testicles before killing him. A video of this murder has been shown to every Prime Minister since. A Japanese royal family member and Japanese military intelligence sources both told me they had seen that video.
After Takeshita’s murder, WEF member Heizo Takenaka handed over control of all of Japan’s listed companies to Vanguard, State Street, etc.
The KM have been doing this sort of thing all over the world. I have heard similar stories about Australian Prime Ministers, not to mention countless rulers of developing countries.
The trail leads to the Institute of Religious Works commonly referred to as the Vatican Bank. According to Japanese royals and other sources, whenever a leader is selected somewhere in the world, they get a visit from a representative of the Vatican Bank who gives them a bank book with a huge amount of money in it and says “Welcome to the rich man’s club. All you have to do is accept the money and obey us. If you don’t we will kill you.” In other words, it is the classic mafia offer of a choice between lead or silver.
This system is now collapsing and that is why they are preparing to announce the death of “Pope Francis.” He is likely to be the last pope, thus ending the 1995 year rule of the Catholic Church. Of course, the real Francis died in 2020 so we are talking about the end of the charade using a rubber-masked pope.
The impending end of the Vatican is connected to the financial collapse alluded to above. The trigger for the collapse is likely to be Fort Knox because the gold there is
almost entirely fake. A US Space Force source explains the story as follows:
Back in October of 2009, certain information was scrubbed by the MSM but was being discussed among the Central Banks and the Federal Reserve. It involved the gold stored in Fort Knox, the US Treasury gold which belongs to the citizens of America. The bottom line, hundreds of thousands of gold bars are fake.
Who did this? Apparently, the US government.
This is how it started: In October of 2009 the Chinese received a shipment of gold bars. Gold is regularly exchanged between countries to pay debts and to settle the so-called balance of trade. Most gold is exchanged and stored in vaults under the supervision of a special organization based in London, the London Bullion Market Association (or LBMA). When the shipment was received, the Chinese government asked that special tests be performed to guarantee the purity and weight of the gold bars. In this test, four small holed are drilled into the gold bars and the metal is then analyzed.
Chinese officials were shocked to learn that the bars were fake. They contained cores of tungsten with only an outer coating of real gold. What’s more, these gold bars, containing serial numbers for tracking, originated in the US and had been stored in Fort Knox for years. There were reportedly between 5,600 to 5,700 bars, weighing 400 oz. each, in the shipment. That is approximately 70 metric tons. Today’s value $6.6 billion.
The Chinese government was quick to investigate and issued a statement that implicated the US government in the scheme.
The Chinese investigators found out that during part of the Clinton Administration (1995-1997) while Alan Greenspan was the chairman of the Federal Reserve, approximately 1.2 million 400 oz tungsten blanks were ‘allegedly’ manufactured by a very high-end, sophisticated refiner in New Jersey, USA. Nearly 15 Thousand metric tons. As part of this operation, 640,000 of these tungsten blanks received their gold plating and were shipped to Ft. Knox. Most of it is there now. (Approximately 7,962 metric tons).
According to the Chinese investigation, the balance of this 1.2 million 400 oz tungsten cache (560,000 tungsten blanks) was also gold plated and then allegedly sold into the international market. Apparently, the global market is saturated with 400 oz salted bars, with a current value as much as $650 billion.
Facts about tungsten. Tungsten is a fraction of the price of gold, $45 per kilo (Shanghai metal market) compared to $93,000 per kilo at current prices. Gold and tungsten have very similar densities, with gold at approximately 19.3 g/cm³ and tungsten slightly less at around 19.2 g/cm³.
What makes the situation even worse is that Bill Clinton et al also allowed this fake gold to be leveraged a thousand times creating the countless $ quadrillions of derivatives that are destroying the financial system.
This is why Trump is repeatedly talking about Fort Knox these days.
This is also why they do not let Senators like Mike Lee visit Fort Knox.
The center of this financial black hole is the Bank for International Settlements in Basel Switzerland. The BIS reports to no government on earth and even members of the Swiss Government are forbidden from entering its headquarters.
By cutting off the flow of funds from the US to the BIS, Trump has set in motion a chain of events that will unravel the whole system.
Russian mathematician Georgy Kvasha, a member of the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences (RAS) uses numbers and formulas to predict historical cycles. He says: Trump is breaking the old order, which means old ties, both political and economic. One of the expected results of such steps is the collapse of the “entire Washington regional committee,” after which the scales of the global political arena will soon tilt in the other direction.:
I’m sure. I insist that the main events of the collapse of the “English world” will take place in the middle of 2025. In general, the whole year will be very busy. One thing after another will collapse, and a gigantic global catastrophe awaits us.
https://news-pravda.com/world/2025/02/22/1079045.html
There can be no doubt the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is part of the old order that was trying to set up the mark of the beast-type tyrannical rule of the planet. First of all, Communism was invented by the KM. The KM established the CCP. With their ubiquitous digital currency tied to social credit scores, the Chinese have the closest approximation to a mark-of-the-beast system already up and running.
You can also tell the CCP follows central planning orders from the Octagon group by looking at what technologies they pursue. For example, they forbid hydrogen cars and promote remote controllable electric cars. They also forbid any medical technology that could make people stronger, smarter and live longer.
In an example of CCP collusion with the KM. US investigative journalist George Webb reveals the biggest scandal of the USAID corruption story. Igor Kolomoisky, got $11 billion through USAID to pay Chinese bagmen to do bio-surveillance on every man woman and child in the United States!
This is the same oligarch who aided Vladimir Zelensky’s rise to power and siphoned billions out of PrivatBank (Ukraine’s largest bank)
In another sign of CCP collusion with the KM, researchers at the infamous Wuhan Institute of Virology have announced a new and deadly coronavirus living within bats.
It looks to me like the Chinese faction involved in the pandemic and vaccine murders is making bioweapon threats to avoid justice.
The financial system behind this is doomed because of the collapsing Chinese real estate bubble. Real estate accounts for 70% of Chinese assets. Yet in some places, the average worker needs to spend 44 years of income to buy a modest apartment. This is worse than the peak of the Japanese real estate bubble of the early 1990s. In Japan, commercial real estate prices fell 90% from their peak after the bubble burst. Chinese prices will have to do the same in order to get in line with reality. What this means is the Chinese will have to unplug and reprogram their financial system computers.
This will happen first in the West though. Here is how the Space force source reads the situation:
“China is busy dismantling the USD. That is its mission. They must take down the dollar before the Yuan- RMB is destroyed. This is a battle about the worthless paper of both countries. As for Trump saying he will dismantle BRICS plus…. It won’t happen. It is a bluff. In closing- Trump has a higher authority behind him, just as Putin and Xi Jinping do.”
This higher power is known to us as reality. The financial system will have to align itself to physical reality which will probably mean linking it to a basket of commodities.
However, what we are hearing from multiple sources is that the system needs to collapse before it can be replaced, so the first half of 2025 could be chaotic like the Russian professor predicts.
Trump is doing his part to speed up the process. In a massive blow to the Deep State, Trump signed an executive order bringing “independent” agencies under Presidential oversight including the Federal Election Commission, the FCC, the SEC and the Federal Trade Commission. The order requires ALL these agencies to submit their regulations to Trump’s budget chief Russ Vought.
This is a good sign Trump is ultimately going to target their current overseer: the Federal Reserve Board;
In the meantime, the rats have been caught looting as they abandon ship.
For example, we are seeing reports that “North Korean cyber criminals” are feared to have carried out the “worst hack in history” after a $1.19 billion crypto heist was uncovered. “Hackers were able to gain control of an Ethereum wallet and rip all of its contents in a shocking theft.”
According to Asian Secret Society sources, US agency hacks used a back door to steal this money and inserted random bits of North Korean script to try to blame the theft on them.
There are many other signs of looting:
EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin has uncovered a shocking $20 billion taxpayer-funded laundering scheme with criminals “throwing gold bars off the sinking Titanic.”
DOGE uncovers over 4M government credit cards responsible for 90M transactions.
Since the 2010 earthquake, the US government has disbursed around $4.4 billion in foreign assistance to Haiti but only 2% went to Haitian organizations or firms.
That is why Elon Musk Xd: “$4.4B SPENT, SIX HOMES BUILT”
Now that this money has been cut off, all sorts of “activist groups” are disbanding all over the world. For example, thanks to the cut-off of USAID, Hong Kong’s “Democratic Party” said late on Thursday it would start preparations to disband and wind up its affairs after a meeting of its leadership, amid a years-long national security crackdown in the China-ruled city.
The Trump regime is also going after foreign tax evaders. Director of the National Economic Council Kevin Hassett says US companies paid $370 billion in taxes to foreign governments and foreign companies paid only $57 billion in US taxes even though “We have one-quarter of world GDP. They have three-quarters of world GDP.”
Trump is also taking down the entire fake history of recent decades that was pushed by the legacy media.

Late 2024 SITS Statement about Fulford Reports
These reports are shared as a service for the thousands of people that come to read them. However, I can’t in good conscience not say what I think about them, and I haven’t talked about why I do that in an update for sometime, so here it is.
Julian and I began posting Fulford years ago as one of many sources to consider. As always, just because we post information doesn’t mean we believe it’s true. For years, I posted new sources that I knew were distorted but were nonetheless valuable to be informed about. As ever, disinformation is key information to a well-trained mind.
Julian passed in 2015, and the site changed direction in 2021 when all our income sources were canceled as part of the censorship campaign that took out many content creators. When that happened, I had to make a decision: should I let the site go offline because we can’t pay server costs or do I post Fulford and allow the site to live on, albeit on life support? I decided to do the latter.
It is my opinion that Fulford’s reports have fallen in quality and that while he enjoys celebrity, his efforts aren’t helping to make people more discerning or empower them to be a positive influence in the world. Does that mean his work is useless, worthy of contempt, or that he’s a negative actor? I’m not saying that. I believe that excellence is a ladder, and there are many rungs on that ladder for whomever is ready wherever they are to begin their ascent. No doubt Fulford has his own colorful opinions of me and SITS, which he has the right to have, and I honor that.
Anyone who’s spent time on social media, especially Telegram, can see the legions of bots and other attention-grabbing schemes that cause distractions, disillusionment, and otherwise hamper what I believe to be more productive expenditures of time within the awakening community.
Despite this, and within the spirit of the mission of SITS, I will continue to post his reports until I change my stance. In full disclosure, you know now the reason I do this and the thoughts I have about his reports and their quality and effect.
As ever, you are encouraged to read his material and think what you like. And if you have any opinions for me you’re welcome to share them with me in the comments.
Stillness General Comment on Fulford Reports
I decided to add this general comment to all Fulford reports since I frequently receive the same questions about them.
Commentary:
In response to many questions and comments I receive from people wondering why I share these reports, I offer the following.
Speaking as someone who has been following Fulford’s reports since 2011, reading them should probably be done with a large grain of salt. That is to say, he seems to share information directly from alleged sources within the Pentagon, CIA, White Dragon Society, and so on. Often the data presented is contradictory on the surface.
The predictions and statements Fulford makes sometimes are highly accurate, whereas, in other instances, they are completely unfounded. Instead of looking to Fulford as one who is “tapped into” some greater truth, it would probably be more productive to consider his data as one possible perspective on what is happening on Earth at this time.
This of course extends to all sources of information. Fulford, like all of us, is only human and can make mistakes. But that doesn’t detract from the work he has done to spread awareness and move things forward to a brighter future for humanity.
Discernment is the process of understanding what something is, which in Fulford’s case, means entertaining his reports without believing them blindly, and then doing the follow-up research/fact-checking to determine what actually happened. In this way, it is a real-time discernment exercise.
The fact that so many people continue to read his reports despite their sensational and wildly inaccurate nature at times—while also being accurate and poignant—means the people he receives information from are probably using him as a mouthpiece to speak to you—the reader who is on their awakening path. As such, blind belief or callous rejection are not our allies but critical thinking and open-mindedness are.
As I have said before, if he is serving as a mouthpiece for various groups working to change the status quo or agents within the Cabal, we can decipher the data as if it is a form of awakening propaganda—information that certain players want to expose the masses to. What effect this has on your personal process is largely up to you. But I would suggest taking an active role in discernment and not falling into the trap of total acceptance or rejection.
