What is 'mow-shee-atch'? Be patient. One day you'll find out.

Young woke Americans have no past (it's all racist-misogynist-colonialist) and no future (no children). Not surprisingly they are having less sex. 'According to a 2022 study by Debby Herbenick, 28% of adults aged 18–24 reported no intercourse in the previous year, up from 24%. A

The five-step handbook #progressives use to oppress #conservatives through state bodies:

In a rapidly-aging world with below-replacement fertility, young workers are a critical economic factor. China has doubled its exports to Brazil and Indonesia during the past four years--that's 600 million people pulled into China's economic orbit.

In my 2020 book 'You Will be Assimilated: China's Plan to Sino-Form the World,' I detailed China's vision of a Global South transformed by Chinese infrastructure. Since then Chinese exports to the Global South have doubled. It's happened faster and more comprehensively than I…

This is silly. China exports to the Global South which re-exports to the US and other DM's. The US is more dependent on Chinese supply chains than ever.

'Chinese advantages in shipbuilding manufacturing, cheaper access to raw materials, and the lower costs of industrial labor all allow for Beijing to reap more yield for each yuan.' More important: AI/5G/robotic factory automation. China says that 1 factory makes 1,000 cruise…

Progressive liberals will stop at nothing to defend their positions of power. Our adversaries sit in the seats of power, at the head of institutions, and—instead of serving the common good—plot how to get rid of us. This is the situation in which we must win in 2024. And we will

‘The current #EU leadership has ruined everything it could. War is brewing on the continent. We are experiencing things that we have only heard about from our grandparents.’
