Title: Catherine Fitts on Central Bankers’ Space Ambitions and the BIS
Summary:
In the April 28, 2025, episode of Tucker Carlson's show, Catherine Fitts clarifies her earlier remarks about space investment and introduces the role of the Bank for International Settlements (BIS):
1. Space Investment Motives: Carlson revisits Fitts’ earlier claim that funds were needed for space, which she clarifies was driven by central bankers, not the U.S. government. She asserts that for the past 30 years, these bankers have sought capital for space-related projects, though she doesn’t elaborate on specifics in this segment.
2. Introduction to the BIS: Fitts explains that the BIS, located in Basel, Switzerland, is the “central bank of central banks,” with 63 major central banks, including the New York Fed and the Federal Reserve, as shareholders since 1994. It serves as a key meeting point for global financial elites.
3. Purpose of the BIS: When pressed for a concise explanation of the BIS’s purpose, Fitts begins to respond but the segment cuts off before she provides a full answer, leaving the BIS’s role partially undefined in this excerpt.
Fitts emphasizes that central bankers, coordinated through the BIS, have been strategically amassing capital for space initiatives, distinguishing their agenda from U.S. government actions and highlighting the BIS’s pivotal role in global finance.
