He explained that "the discussions, in which experts from the Ministries of Finance, Planning, Oil, Electricity and the Central Bank participated, focused on macroeconomic indicators, where a remarkable growth in non-oil GDP was recorded at 5% for 2024, driven by the expansion of the agricultural sector and increased public spending, with growth expected to continue at 3.5% in 2025. The mission confirmed that these figures reflect an improvement in economic diversification and a reduction in dependence on oil, which enhances the stability of the national economy, in addition to reviewing actual expenditures and expected revenues for 2024 and expectations for 2025 and how to finance the deficit.

On February 26, Iraqi Finance Minister Taif Sami discussed with the International Monetary Fund financial and banking reforms to support the Iraqi economy, during periodic meetings held in the Jordanian capital, Amman.
Welcome everybody the big hall tonight. It's Tuesday. Let's see March the fourth. I had to thank dinner Tuesday, March, 4, and you're listening to the big listening an hour early, if you're live on the big call, because as the email went out, hopefully everybody received it for doing the call an hour earlier. So everybody gets a President Trump addressed both houses of Congress tonight at nine o'clock Eastern, I'm going to be watching on Newsmax, but I'm sure it'll be on a lot of different channels.
All right, we're moving right along in the big call tonight. Let's I want to clarify something that a listener wrote in to Bob on, and he told me about it today, and that is the proper designation of NESARA and GESARA, I did not have it right.
It should be for NESARA - National Economic Security and Reformation Act, national economic security, which makes a lot of sense, economic security and reformation act that's NESARA
GESARA is Global Economic Security And Reformation Act, okay, so thank you for the clarification on that. Since I haven't seen that ever in writing, it was good to see it and clarify what it is I have been saying incorrectly. Now So I appreciate that very much.
There are some people out there that are thinking that they or somebody else, might get the 800 numbers earlier than others, and from what I'm hearing from our sources, that is not the case. Nobody is going to get it and put it out any earlier than anybody else.
Now, there was a time I was informed that I was going to get the number a little bit early, and that appears not to be the case anymore. It appears everybody's going to get the number when the emails come out, and that's when it'll get out.
So there's no advantage if you're listening to someone else or you're listening to the big call, you know, you should have it in your email at approximately the same time.
Now it could come out where East Coast people get it earlier, because they have a time advantage of getting it at the time, and then maybe Central Time is an hour later, because it's leaving time as it is, but it's in a different time zone. Same thing with Mountain Time, same thing with Pacific Time, and then Alaska, Hawaii, or two other time zones.
So that's going to be that's going to be interesting to see exactly how that does come out. I was told my theory of everybody getting it at the same time in their time zone was a correct theory. So let's see how that plays out. But nobody has any advantage over anyone else to put it out any sooner - that’s not really the case.
We're going to go with this it comes to the timing. We had heard that the bond holders have received, but we haven't confirmed it yet that they have received their emails. They have received their emails.
They have received. Their emails that show they have received in other words, their accounts have been funded. Let me clarify that their accounts have been funded. Now when will they get access. That is a big question. We think they're going to receive that email that gives them access or tells them when they get access to their accounts at the same time, we get emails giving us a toll free number to set our appointments –
See they've already, you know, used their bonds, tier three bond holders, those guys have already ponied up their bonds. They've already been checked out on that and their, for instance, for those bond transactions, have already been placed in their account.
But they don't ……. They know approximately how much they're going to get, but they don't have access to the money yet. Well, they're supposed to get access to the money at about the same time that we get access to our appointments, either get notified to set up our appointments, or actually get in to begin our exchanges at the redemption center.
And remember, the rates at the redemption centers will be higher than those at the banks. The only exception that I've heard of on that has been the Vietnamese Dong, the Dong rate at the redemption center yesterday was it was the same as it was in the banks. That's the exception for the rule the dinar is going to be much higher at the redemption center, because they're going to offer us a contract rate on the dinar. I told you guys roughly where that range was okay
Zim is on par with the USN dollar and -- what else? there are other currencies and they should all be between four and seven. Between four and seven currencies that are going up in value are all going to be in that range of four to seven, and that's really exciting, too.
Let's see what else. Okay, let's talk about the timing for us to get notified, and then we'll bring in some of the other things that are that are also happening that Jeanie has in her post today,
We should -- Okay, here's the timing on this -- tonight, Trump is making his speech in front of both chambers of commerce. Set to go off at about nine o'clock. I've been told he will actually start speaking at about 9:05 tonight, Eastern Time, 9:05 -- so take a few minutes for him to go through the crowd, shake a few hands, the applause to settle, all of that - he should be getting started about five minutes after nine, so we're in good shape.
Then -- And I want everybody to watch this thing and see what all he has to say. I've heard he's going to talk about going to be very exciting. He might, hopefully he'll throw a couple surprises in there. He's not supposed to talk about our asset backed currency, or our gold backed currency, yet, not for a few days.
They don't going to happen until the weekend, when the markets are closed due to market volatility. Don't look for that part of NESARA, which it is - part of NESARA and GESARA really, to occur tonight.
I think it's going to talk quite a lot of but what I want to talk to you about is the timing.
What we've heard is during the President's speech, those emails for the bond holders would go out tonight, so they would be able to receive them overnight or in the morning tomorrow, as to when they will get access to their funds, they're supposed to go out during his speech. Now, notifications for us in tier four, A and B are supposed to come out, starting two hours after the speech ends tonight.
Now, do you think we'll get something over night tonight? I seriously doubt it. I think it'll be something in the morning, I think we will receive them tomorrow if everything goes well, because we know redemption center leaders, some of whom are going in to the redemption Center at 815 in the morning tomorrow, 8:15am and I'm thinking that makes sense, because we should be getting our notifications .
Now - Does it mean we get our notifications in the morning? Not necessarily? No. It could be that we get it anytime tomorrow. There's been no time given to me. We receive our notifications, and it could be that we receive them Wednesday tomorrow, and then we set our appointments, and we even start exchanges on Thursday. That's very possible, so they'll be faked out if the emails that are coming in with the toll free number don't be faked out if they don't come in first thing in the morning, it might be a little later on purpose.
Okay, so that's supposed to be the timing on the releases, but if you think about it, if you don't have staff in the redemption center when these come out, if they came out overnight how are you going to set appointments with somebody at the redemption center, if they're not in and they're not going to be in tonight, they're not going to be in till tomorrow, so I would look for it sometime tomorrow to come out.
All right, now, let's go into a couple other things. We were hearing that the DOGE Department of Government Efficiency. They're calling DOGE checks. Some people that are not getting direct deposits, like they do for Social Security, etc, will get a check from the US Treasury by certified mail.
Now we heard that they were to start to go out. The checks would start to go out today. I don't have confirmation time for that. They might not have gone out today, and they might not start until tomorrow or the next day, but those of us on Social Security will get our direct deposit into that same account, same bank account.
Okay, that should start any day now, we're hearing we get DOGE in the first 10 days of March, and today's only the fourth. So I think it's very possible we get some of those checks tomorrow. I don't know if President Trump's going to talk about those monies going out, but I did hear from some pretty reliable people that that is supposed to happen, not for 12 months but for 13 months straight, which is an extra bonus month, which is great. So those will be interesting to see that those come in to our bank accounts.
Let's see beyond that increase in Social Security is supposed to occur this month, and whether it'll occur on your same Social Security Day, which starts tomorrow for some people, some people are the 5th 12th 19th, 26th - those are your four Wednesdays in March, 5th , 12th , the 19th and the 26th so let's see what happens on that
I’m thinking those will happen this month as an increase, and the increase is going to be pretty substantial for most of us. The other thing is R and R, the restitution reconciliation allowance, R and R for those exchanging will be at the redemption center. We'll get it there when we exchange, and we'll tell them, they'll have social security number – they will look it up – the last four digits of your solar they'll be able to look it up and see it, and then they'll be able to tell us what that is and the amount it is, and it should go into the quantum account
It should occur if I understand the timing is right – it should occur after the currency has been exchanged, after we've done the exchange of our currencies and the redemption of our Zim notes.
Okay, then don't forget to write down on your pad to ask about R and R, okay, ask about that. Get the amount. It won't be broken down for you. You're going to get a lump sum total at the redemption center. Ask what that is, and then you'll be all set.
Okay, so we've got the RV happening. We think the notifications starting tomorrow. Okay, we've got the dose checks coming out, direct deposit for a lot of us and checks for other people. And we've got the increase in Social Security this month, and we've got, but have I forgotten anything? Increase in social DOGE - R and R and of course the RV, those four this month of March the 4t and should be an excellent month. Should be a terrific month.
All right, so let's see. I think that's everything I wanted to say, The other thing is, I'd like to pray the call out. So let's do that now, Thank you guys for coming in an hour early now, everybody. Tune in and enjoy speech tonight. God Bless.
