I don't see any peaceful solution to what's going on in America. The communists are too deeply entrenched to be booted by voting. One of the problems we will face is the size of the country, El Salvador, etc, were fortunate in being small countries, we have a lot of wide open spaces, and the question arises, where first? During the covid swindle, there were plans in place to put wee gulags in every town, to incarcerate those who might have been exposed to the vid. They never carried through with it, and I think the 2A is the reason. But, best wishes, and a strong heart to all of you come what may, and keep your powder dry.

Trump has shown himself to be remarkably willing to be constrained by the rulings and orders of federal judges who are acting far beyond their actual powers - as he was in his first term. His policy is not what he says, it's what he does - and that's not much - except for the closure of the borders (so far). And with the crypto scams perpetrated by some of his family members - see https://thespectator.com/topic/funding-donald-trump-billion-dollar-crypto-empire/ - he's actually outdoing Biden - and the majority shareholder is a fellow named Zhao, in Hong Kong, in the PRC: "What USD1 actually represents is a private money-printing machine tied directly to the Oval Office. Trump’s financial disclosure form shows the family holds at least a 28 percent stake in USD1’s managing entity, with additional holdings spread across shell companies controlled by Trump Organization affiliates.

That money-printing machine is being operated by his son Don Trump Jr., and Zach Witkoff, co-founder of the aforementioned World Liberty and son of Steve Witkoff, Trump’s handpicked Special Envoy to the Middle East. The potential conflicts of interest here are mind-boggling. The two princelings were last week in Abu Dhabi to ink a lucrative and rather murky deal.

They were there to witness state-run Emirati fund, MGX, agree to use USD1 to pour $2 billion into Binance, a crypto exchange long known for breaking the rules. Under its founder, Changpeng Zhao, Binance routinely ignored US sanctions and anti-money laundering laws. Zhao eventually pled guilty to federal charges, stepped down, and became a convicted felon.

And now, a year later, a sitting US President is helping to funnel billions into the platform via his family’s crypto product. According to analysts familiar with the deal structure, Trump-linked entities could stand to gain hundreds of millions in fees, equity exposure, and token issuance linked to Binance’s rebranding and relisting efforts.

Zhao, who was imprisoned in the US for four months last year, met Zach Witkoff in Abu Dhabi, according to a photo posted on Twitter. “It was great to see our friends in Abu Dhabi,” Zhao replied to the post. Zhao remains a major shareholder of Binance.

World Liberty claims USD1 is backed by US Treasuries, dollars, and similar cash equivalents. But who actually owns those reserves? Who audits them? Who earns the interest on billions in parked capital? As of this week, one anonymous wallet, identified by the firm Arkham, holds over $2 billion in USD1. It received its entire balance in less than two weeks. No one knows who owns it. No agency is investigating. The Treasury Department remains silent. The SEC is nowhere to be seen."

Eventually, the US government will collapse, like the Soviet Government in 1989-1991, because it will spend itself into a hole from which it cannot recover - https://streamfortyseven.substack.com/p/the-real-reason-to-take-a-chainsaw and https://streamfortyseven.substack.com/p/social-security-exponential-population
