I recently had the chance to watch the footage from Donald Trump’s January 29 Conroe Texas rally and while there were many typically idiotic statements made by the former president, the event was impressive to say the least. At least 50,000 people conglomerated to the event and several state official endorsed Trump’s re-election for 2024.
great article. when they say they are "all in it together" they mean it - including Trump the traitor. Trump was placed in power in to weaponize politics so it could be used to destroy the constitution and bill of rights - "mission accomplished". Now this fool and lifelong democratic buddy of the clintons, who led his followers to a trap on Jan 6th and is attacking DeSantis and Rand Paul (no fan but still better than Trump) is out selling the death juice when not relaxing in his Florida palace....
great article, TQ. I can't help thinking though that peace and the pursuit of happiness will remain fickle as long as there are such vast profits in war. Empire building doesn't quite work on a finite planet either, or perhaps I'm missing something.

Yanis Varoufakis said something interesting in a speech a few years ago:
It started when the kings separated the banks from politics. So then when something needed to be done that the people didn't want, either the banks or the king would do it. The other side would play powerless and blame the other.
Ugh I know you believe in a multi polar world, but how do we prevent all of this corruption which seems to be endemic to any complex system of politics or economics?
Russia is running the technocracy game with the qr codes and vaccine crap.
China is a bit more gray, sometimes looking like our technocrats, sometimes being nationalist.
"So does that make Trump a Zionist shill deserving of a Soros-directed regime change as many of his detractors claim?"
Trump is an actor, playing a role. As is Johnson, Macron, Trudeau, Aderne, etc.
"And if Trump hadn’t come to power in 2016, contracting America’s involvement with NATO, cutting funding for NED regime change outlets and foreign militarist escapades more broadly, then the wave of nations joining the BRI during his administration would likely also not have been possible."
This is because Trump was not running the show. Henry Kissinger, Jared Kusher's mentor, was in the White House during Trump's reign more than Trump himself was. The same person controlling Trump has controlled Presidents of the US for decades. It is Kissinger and the Rockefellers who are changing the world hegemony from the US to China. Hence the push to defund NATO and reign in NED. TThose who control the US, also control China and Russia. Xi Ping and Putin are merely following orders. It is a chess board and Trump is just another pawn.
The ancient Jews were in a very real sense the "chosen people" - chosen to be the culture into which Jesus (later the Christ) would be born, as amply prophesied in the Old Testament.
But as is well known, he was rejected and denounced by the religious leaders of the Jewish community who declared: "We have no king but Caesar".
That left Jews vainly waiting - still - for the prophesied 'Messiah'. It might perhaps explain in some part the sense of a people with a grievance.

Excellent article and important issue. Thank you, Matt
Thank you for this piece, Matt. Spot on! I'm looking forward to your next essay on this topic.
The coup started way back, even before the USA.

sorry but this seems like little more than gatekeeping trying to obfuscate the truth, nice try but people are waking up.
Who are your parents and where were you born? This info seems to have been scrubbed from the internet.
