It’s no secret that BlackRock is deeply embedded with the New World Order. Okay, so maybe it’s a secret to “normies” but my audience is very well aware that the largest investment management firm in America is in bed with those trying to bring about The Great Reset. Recent revelations make me question whether or not they’re just the bankers of the globalist elites. Could they be the ones who are actually pulling all the strings?
On the latest episode of The JD Rucker Show, I dove into this question based on an article from The Epoch Times below. Not only does it reveal the various secret meetings that have taken place at the White House, meetings that are only known because of public White House visitor logs, but it also brings to light a mysterious figure that up until now I nor most others have ever heard about.
“Kimberly Lang” is a high-level person in the White House and apparently nobody in the outside world has any idea who she is. We know she’s employed by our government as a GS-13, but she apparently doesn’t have a public title or list of responsibilities. Nevertheless, she’s meeting with BlackRock executives, the Director of the CIA, and high-ranking officials from across the globe. She has had 308 known meetings since the beginning of the Biden regime, yet somehow she has remained a ghost.
Watch or listen to today’s episode. Here’s the article that I referenced by Justin Haskins and Jack McPherrin from our premium content partners at The Epoch Times:
Uncovering the White House’s Secret Meetings With BlackRock
With more than $10 trillion in assets under management, BlackRock is the wealthiest and most powerful investment management firm on Wall Street. Yet, newly discovered information reveals that BlackRock’s influence may extend well beyond the financial sphere, all the way to the White House.
Our investigation into the relationship between BlackRock officials and the White House shows that during the Biden administration’s turn at the tiller, BlackRock, which currently controls more assets than any other investment group in America, has enjoyed unprecedented access to key administration figures and advisers to the president. These relationships raise serious ethical concerns that cannot be addressed without an in-depth investigation by the proper authorities.
Some of BlackRock’s most powerful executives have conducted numerous in-person meetings with Biden administration officials, occurring on a near-monthly basis. The most frequent visiting executive has close personal relationships with several White House officials, and it appears he enjoys a concerning amount of access to delicate intelligence that could be used to shield BlackRock from investment risk.
White House visitor logs show Thomas E. Donilon—chairman of the BlackRock Investment Institute (BII), BlackRock’s personal think tank dedicated to assessing geopolitical investment risk—convened with Biden administration officials at least eight times from March to November of 2021. Donilon has been a luminary in U.S. foreign policy for the entirety of his career, most recently serving as national security adviser to President Barack Obama and foreign policy lead for the 2016 Clinton campaign. He is a leading member of globally focused organizations such as the Council on Foreign Relations, the Aspen Strategy Group, and the Trilateral Commission.
Because visitor log information is typically only made available several months after meetings occur, it is possible Donilon has had additional meetings at the White House that we do not yet know about. Yet, using the information that has been made available to date, records indicate Donilon has met multiple times with special assistants to the White House Office of Cabinet Affairs (pdf) Thomas Isen and Sanam Rastegar, and once with Sezaneh Seymour, the deputy national security adviser for cyber and emerging technology at the National Security Council.
Perhaps most curiously, Donilon has had at least four one-on-one meetings with Kimberly Lang. Despite a detailed investigation into Lang’s role in the White House, we have yet to determine precisely which job responsibilities she fills.
Lang appears to be absent from the official Annual Report to Congress on White House Office Personnel (pdf) dated July 1, 2021, despite having held meetings as far back as Jan. 29 prior to the report’s release. The only record of her existence that we could obtain comes from federal payroll records, which indicate that she worked with the National Security Council in 2016 in one of the highest-salaried government positions attainable (GS-13).
In her current unspecified role, the White House visitor logs clearly portray that Lang regularly holds private meetings with top foreign policy and national security elites. Of the 308 meetings she has personally hosted as of February 2022 (the last publicly available tranche of meetings), some of her visitors have included William Burns, director of the Central Intelligence Agency; Colin Kahl, U.S. undersecretary of defense for policy; and Philip Etienne, French ambassador to the United States.
Lang has also met with numerous prominent political scientists and experts specializing in geopolitical risk, nuclear threats, terrorism, and economic sanctions.
Donilon and Lang have been in close contact since at least 2010, when Donilon was national security adviser to the Obama administration, during which he ran the National Security Council to which Lang has been linked. According to a variety of emails obtained from WikiLeaks, Lang was closely apprised of Donilon’s whereabouts, often directly communicating with him in addition to powerful government officials such as former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and current National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan.
As for the recent White House meetings between Donilon and Lang, there are no publicly available records about their purpose, nor have there been public statements made by the Biden administration, BlackRock, or Donilon. Though we have requested further information from BlackRock and the White House, we have yet to receive a response from any of the relevant parties.
These meetings raise serious ethical concerns, especially in light of the stated mission of Donilon’s BlackRock Investment Institute. According to its website, BII “leverages the firm’s expertise and generates proprietary research to provide insights on the global economy, markets, geopolitics and long-term asset allocation – all to help our clients and portfolio managers navigate financial markets.”
In other words, it’s Donilon’s fiduciary responsibility to read the geopolitical tealeaves in order to help BlackRock clients earn a better return on their investments. Such a job would be substantially easier if one had access to regular meetings with officials closely plugged into foreign policy and security decision-making, a benefit Donilon has clearly attained.
The fact that an important figure at BlackRock held numerous closed-door meetings at the White House throughout 2021 is disconcerting enough, but Donilon’s connections to the Biden administration run much deeper than monthly meetings with policymakers.

Not only did Donilon work alongside Biden in the Obama administration as national security adviser, he was also reportedly on Biden’s shortlist to become CIA director. His brother, Mike Donilon, is the senior adviser to the president and one of Biden’s closest confidantes. Mike served as Biden’s chief strategist throughout the 2020 presidential campaign.
Thomas Donilon’s wife, Cathy Russell, was the head of the powerful White House personnel office during Biden’s first year in office, though she left the administration to become executive director of UNICEF on Feb. 1, 2022. As the director of the Presidential Personnel Office, Russell was vested with the important task of hiring and vetting administration employees.
Coincidentally, Thomas Donilon’s daughter, Sarah, also works in the Biden administration, as a staffer for the National Security Council.
BlackRock’s connections with the Biden administration do not end with the Donilon family. Brian Deese, Biden’s director of the National Economic Council, was formerly global head of sustainable investing at BlackRock. Wally Adeyemo, deputy secretary of the Treasury Department, previously worked as a senior adviser at BlackRock and served as chief of staff to BlackRock Chairman and CEO Larry Fink.
Fink also has had at least one unpublicized meeting at the White House in the Biden era. On Feb. 8, 2022, just two weeks before Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Fink met with Steve Ricchetti, counselor to the president and a man dubbed “Biden’s sherpa” by Politico. Again, there are no media reports or acknowledgment of this meeting occurring.
Why are members of the Biden administration meeting frequently with key figures at BlackRock? Have the close relationships between BlackRock executives and the White House impacted public policy? Has BlackRock profited financially from these important relationships? Has BlackRock worked with the White House to influence policy towards Russia, or used information gleaned from White House sources to divest themselves from riskier holdings?
BlackRock is the world’s most powerful investment management firm, so it’s essential that these and many other important questions are answered. The American people deserve to know whether their government prioritizes their needs over those of gigantic Wall Street investment firms. But without a more far-reaching investigation by Congress, the answers we seek are not likely to fully come to the surface soon.
Five Things New “Preppers” Forget When Getting Ready for Bad Times Ahead
The preparedness community is growing faster than it has in decades. Even during peak times such as Y2K, the economic downturn of 2008, and Covid, the vast majority of Americans made sure they had plenty of toilet paper but didn’t really stockpile anything else.
Things have changed. There’s a growing anxiety in this presidential election year that has prompted more Americans to get prepared for crazy events in the future. Some of it is being driven by fearmongers, but there are valid concerns with the economy, food supply, pharmaceuticals, the energy grid, and mass rioting that have pushed average Americans into “prepper” mode.
There are degrees of preparedness. One does not have to be a full-blown “doomsday prepper” living off-grid in a secure Montana bunker in order to be ahead of the curve. In many ways, preparedness isn’t about being able to perfectly handle every conceivable situation. It’s about being less dependent on government for as long as possible. Those who have proper “preps” will not be waiting for FEMA to distribute emergency supplies to the desperate masses.
Below are five things people new to preparedness (and sometimes even those with experience) often forget as they get ready. All five are common sense notions that do not rely on doomsday in order to be useful. It may be nice to own a tank during the apocalypse but there’s not much you can do with it until things get really crazy. The recommendations below can have places in the lives of average Americans whether doomsday comes or not.

Secured Wealth
Whether in the bank or held in a retirement account, most Americans feel that their life’s savings is relatively secure. At least they did until the last couple of years when de-banking, geopolitical turmoil, and the threat of Central Bank Digital Currencies reared their ugly heads.
It behooves Americans to diversify their holdings. If there’s a triggering event or series of events that cripple the financial systems or devalue the U.S. Dollar, wealth can evaporate quickly. To hedge against potential turmoil, many Americans are looking in two directions: Crypto and physical precious metals.
There are huge advantages to cryptocurrencies, but there are also inherent risks because “virtual” money can become challenging to spend. Add in the push by central banks and governments to regulate or even replace cryptocurrencies with their own versions they control and the risks amplify. There’s nothing wrong with cryptocurrencies today but things can change rapidly.
As for physical precious metals, many Americans pay cash to keep plenty on hand in their safe. Rolling over or transferring retirement accounts into self-directed IRAs is also a popular option, but there are caveats. It can often take weeks or even months to get the gold and silver shipped if the owner chooses to close their account. This is why Genesis Gold Group stands out. Their relationship with the depositories allows for rapid closure and shipping, often in less than 10 days from the time the account holder makes their move. This can come in handy if things appear to be heading south.
Lots of Potable Water
One of the biggest shocks that hit new preppers is understanding how much potable water they need in order to survive. Experts claim one gallon of water per person per day is necessary. Even the most conservative estimates put it at over half-a-gallon. That means that for a family of four, they’ll need around 120 gallons of water to survive for a month if the taps turn off and the stores empty out.
Being near a fresh water source, whether it’s a river, lake, or well, is a best practice among experienced preppers. It’s necessary to have a water filter as well, even if the taps are still working. Many refuse to drink tap water even when there is no emergency. Berkey was our previous favorite but they’re under attack from regulators so the Alexapure systems are solid replacements.
For those in the city or away from fresh water sources, storage is the best option. This can be challenging because proper water storage containers take up a lot of room and are difficult to move if the need arises. For “bug in” situations, having a larger container that stores hundreds or even thousands of gallons is better than stacking 1-5 gallon containers. Unfortunately, they won’t be easily transportable and they can cost a lot to install.
Water is critical. If chaos erupts and water infrastructure is compromised, having a large backup supply can be lifesaving.
Pharmaceuticals and Medical Supplies
There are multiple threats specific to the medical supply chain. With Chinese and Indian imports accounting for over 90% of pharmaceutical ingredients in the United States, deteriorating relations could make it impossible to get the medicines and antibiotics many of us need.
Stocking up many prescription medications can be hard. Doctors generally do not like to prescribe large batches of drugs even if they are shelf-stable for extended periods of time. It is a best practice to ask your doctor if they can prescribe a larger amount. Today, some are sympathetic to concerns about pharmacies running out or becoming inaccessible. Tell them your concerns. It’s worth a shot. The worst they can do is say no.
If your doctor is unwilling to help you stock up on medicines, then Jase Medical is a good alternative. Through telehealth, they can prescribe daily meds or antibiotics that are shipped to your door. As proponents of medical freedom, they empathize with those who want to have enough medical supplies on hand in case things go wrong.
Energy Sources
The vast majority of Americans are locked into the grid. This has proven to be a massive liability when the grid goes down. Unfortunately, there are no inexpensive remedies.
Those living off-grid had to either spend a lot of money or effort (or both) to get their alternative energy sources like solar set up. For those who do not want to go so far, it’s still a best practice to have backup power sources. Diesel generators and portable solar panels are the two most popular, and while they’re not inexpensive they are not out of reach of most Americans who are concerned about being without power for extended periods of time.
Natural gas is another necessity for many, but that’s far more challenging to replace. Having alternatives for heating and cooking that can be powered if gas and electric grids go down is important. Have a backup for items that require power such as manual can openers. If you’re stuck eating canned foods for a while and all you have is an electric opener, you’ll have problems.
Don’t Forget the Protein
When most think about “prepping,” they think about their food supply. More Americans are turning to gardening and homesteading as ways to produce their own food. Others are working with local farmers and ranchers to purchase directly from the sources. This is a good idea whether doomsday comes or not, but it’s particularly important if the food supply chain is broken.
Most grocery stores have about one to two weeks worth of food, as do most American households. Grocers rely heavily on truckers to receive their ongoing shipments. In a crisis, the current process can fail. It behooves Americans for multiple reasons to localize their food purchases as much as possible.
Long-term storage is another popular option. Canned foods, MREs, and freeze dried meals are selling out quickly even as prices rise. But one component that is conspicuously absent in shelf-stable food is high-quality protein. Most survival food companies offer low quality “protein buckets” or cans of meat, but they are often barely edible.
Prepper All-Naturals offers premium cuts of steak that have been cooked sous vide and freeze dried to give them a 25-year shelf life. They offer Ribeye, NY Strip, and Tenderloin among others.
Having buckets of beans and rice is a good start, but keeping a solid supply of high-quality protein isn’t just healthier. It can help a family maintain normalcy through crises.
Prepare Without Fear
With all the challenges we face as Americans today, it can be emotionally draining. Citizens are scared and there’s nothing irrational about their concerns. Being prepared and making lifestyle changes to secure necessities can go a long way toward overcoming the fears that plague us. We should hope and pray for the best but prepare for the worst. And if the worst does come, then knowing we did what we could to be ready for it will help us face those challenges with confidence.
JD, China OWNS Blackrock, no?
Jasonn- NO, where do you get this crap?
Blackrock is owned by JEWS.
Blackrock, the U.S. “government”, the banks, big pharma, the media, is all RAN BY JEWS.
How do you manage to write a story about “Blackrock” controlling the government AND NOT MENTION THE FACT IT’S OWNED BY JEWS??? HOW DO YOU DO THAT WHEN IT’S THE MOST IMPORTANT DETAIL YOU COULD MENTION?!?
THIS JD IDIOT IS WHAT YOU CALL “CONTROLLED OPPOSITION”.
I challenge him to debate me in public, live-streamed, on any topic he cares to debate.
What’s the point? There is NO rule of law in the USA.
Xi Jinping could openly take Obiden’s place in the White House and NOTHING would be done about it.
BLACK ROCK sounds like an acronym for that piece of outer-space meteorite stone the Mohammedans worship at Mecca. Ya think?
Clearly, it isn’t Brandon……
She only makes just over 100 grand a year?
And who knows what people are meeting at Joe’s Delaware beach house with him.
Clearly Blackrock has too much influence, and clearly our govt is corrupt.
I think some perspective on goverment employees would be good.. There are hundreds of thousands of GS-13s that have hundreds of meetings all the time. GS-13 is a mid level employee, similar to an O-5 or O-6 in the military. They’re a dime a dozen and I doubt a GS-13 would be doing too much in very high level meeting. ALSO GS-13s are not one of the highest paid government positions. There are two GS position (14 and 15) that are higher and then there are SES grades which are executive level and pay much higher than GS level. All that to say, in my 21 years in military and 20 years working for defense contractors, I’ve met hundreds of GS-13s and they are typically program level leaders, not policy decision makers.
Going out on a limb here: She’s Obama’s liaison.
The Puppet Master? Maybe.
But, inquiring minds want to know why, at 12:41 PM, June 23, 2022, two full body bags were wheeled out of the White House. Any reporters out there?
