North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum has emerged as a leading vice presidential candidate for Donald Trump’s 2024 presidential run. Coming seemingly out of nowhere, Burgum is now being aggressively astroturfed as the new sensation of the conservative media establishment, particularly by globalist-run Fox News. Burgum is saying all the right things as he sees a potential vice presidential nomination in his future. However, before Burgum became the darling of the conservative media gatekeepers, he was a typical globalist politician with deep ties to China and Bill Gates who vetoed bills to protect children from transgenderism and trashed Trump on the...

***It was widely underreported that Communist China declared a People’s War against the United States in May of 2019 after the Trump Administration’s efforts to curb their theft of American intellectual property.***No serious person believes the 2020 election was fair. The signature anomaly, the middle of the night pause in counting in the six swing states—where President Trump was in the lead at the start of the pause, only to have the count resume with Joe Biden ahead—is all one needs to know. The election of 2020 was decided—most likely—by the illegal collection and production of absentee ballots by a...

When Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022, it lost access to many world markets, including much of Europe. Countries like Germany, which for years had relied on Russian gas and oil, now turned sharply away and sought to rid themselves of any vestiges of Russian dependence.

Always thirsty for new supplies of gas and oil, China quickly notified Russia that it was interested in receiving Russian gas and in developing a pipeline from Siberia for that gas. (Source). Recently, however, that lifeline looks more like a noose, at least for Russia. Beijing is taking...

And in doing so, the BCB has been forced to puke away its reserves (now at their lowest level) since 2007.
