The Future Forecasting Group, a team of remote viewers, reportedly visualized a major "swap" or "coup" event occurring in the fourth quarter of 2024. One viewer described a planned removal of a political figure and the introduction of a younger, powerful male who resembles Gavin Newsom. These predictions are framed as "near-future global events" that could create "shock and awe" before the November election.

The *Trends Journal* reminds listeners of its May 2022 forecast that Joe Biden would step down and Kamala Harris would run on a pro-abortion platform. Celente argues that abortion is the ultimate "single issue" that resonates with core Democratic constituencies and independent voters. He predicts that unless a major "wild card" like a market crash occurs, Harris will defeat Donald Trump by focusing on this topic.

Gerald Celente predicts that the Democratic Party will replace Joe Biden with Gavin Newsom, whom he describes as a "Getty gang" creation.

Reflecting on the economic turmoil of the 1970s, Gerald Celente describes how he used his understanding of geopolitical trends to make a fortune in the gold futures market.

This success allowed him to quit his government job and establish himself as a full-time trend forecaster.

Gerald Celente reiterates his forecast that 2024 will be a "golden year for gold," with prices potentially hitting $3,000 an ounce due to geopolitical instability and inflation. He notes that Chinese citizens are buying gold at record rates as their real estate market busts. Celente predicts that the Federal Reserve will lower interest rates to keep the current administration in power, further devaluing the dollar and driving gold higher.

Celente shares his personal history, growing up in the Bronx and working in the New York State Senate at a young age. He describes his decision to quit government work after witnessing the "cowardice" and sycophantic behavior of political aides. He credits his father with teaching him to think for himself and avoid being a "parrot" for the establishment.

Gerald Celente reviews his successful 2016 prediction of a Trump victory, which he attributed to the public's hatred of the Clintons. He dismisses Russiagate and the subsequent impeachments as "clown show" acts orchestrated by politicians like Adam Schiff. Celente also criticizes California Governor Gavin Newsom and the political establishment for treating the public like "plantation workers."

The Wall Street Journal reports that the Omicron variant is expected to dent the global economy in early 2022. Despite this, equity markets remain optimistic.
