China spent 20-30 years building a silent economic empire around the world… And now President Trump is flying into Beijing to start dismantling parts of it in front of the entire world. Most people think this China visit is about diplomacy. They’re missing the real game completely. This isn’t a “peace summit.” It’s a pressure summit. And President Trump is walking into Beijing from the strongest negotiating position the U.S. has had against China in years. Why? Because since January 2025, the administration has systematically attacked the pillars of China’s global leverage: → Massive tariffs designed to force supply chain relocation → Semiconductor restrictions choking China’s AI and military-civil fusion ambitions → Rare earth diversification to break Beijing’s monopoly weapon → Investment restrictions blocking Chinese penetration into strategic U.S. sectors → LNG and oil expansion strengthening American energy dominance → Indo-Pacific friend-shoring to reduce dependency on Chinese manufacturing Most people only look at tariffs. That’s surface level. The real strategy is much bigger: President Trump’s team is trying to dismantle China’s ability to economically coerce the world. And then came the Iran conflict. This changed everything. When Iranian oil infrastructure and Strait of Hormuz traffic became unstable earlier this year up till now, China suddenly faced a brutal reality: Its economy is still highly vulnerable to external energy shocks. That matters because China imports enormous amounts of oil, and Iran has been one of Beijing’s key pressure valves against Western influence. So now President Trump arrives in Beijing with leverage on multiple fronts at once: Trade leverage. Technology leverage. Energy leverage. Supply chain leverage. Geopolitical leverage. That’s why this visit matters. Watch for what comes next: • Increased Chinese purchases of American energy and agriculture • Pressure campaigns around fentanyl precursors • Negotiations tied to rare earth exports • AI and chip access being used as bargaining tools • Quiet pressure on Beijing regarding Iran and Russia This is not America begging China for stability. This is the United States forcing China to negotiate inside an American-designed framework. And whether people like President Trump or not, one thing is becoming very difficult to deny: The era of passive U.S. foreign policy is over. We are watching the return of hard-power economics in real time. Most headlines will talk about “diplomacy.” The real story is the restructuring of global leverage. And the scary part? Most people still don’t fully grasp how deep this economic war already is. The next generation better start learning geopolitics fast. The world being built right now will determine who controls trade, energy, technology, food, shipping lanes, AI, and global finance for the next 30 years. That’s exactly why I wrote the ebook.

When Los Angeles burned and the government stood idle and Bass was plying the fiddle overseas ONE PERSON stepped hard into Gavin Newsom cornering him Rachel Darvish @RachelDarvish Watch this as a reminder how Gavin and the Democrats lied then and lie now CAUGHT ON CAMERA WATCH repost And follow this gusty mom Rachel Darvish @RachelDarvish Never forget THEY DON’T CARE Time to revisit the proof of truth

This is a stunning admission and President @realDonaldTrump needs to stop what he’s doing and direct that Brennan be immediately arrested and for the @DNIGabbard along with other cabinet heads immediately report to him how they are cleaning these organizations out of these treasonous “legions of professionals!” Give them two weeks otherwise find new cabinet members!!!

It's up to 72 now....

LMAOOOOO Shifty Schiff is in deep trouble! President Trump just dropped a bomb exposing how this pencil-necked fraud criminally leaked classified information to target Trump while on the Intel Committee. It’s a straight-up felony. Jonathan Turley is calling it “truly chilling” and “perfectly moronic” to commit this kind of crime in a planning meeting with staff, up to 10 years or more in prison. “Someone is a felon.” Lock him up. This is the same corrupt liar who pushed the Russia hoax for years, weaponized Congress, and got away with it because the swamp always protects its own. No more.

Massachusetts state trooper and armed Marine civilian stopped parolee Tyler Brown after he allegedly shot at random vehicles near Harvard, leaving two people critically wounded. Brown, with a lengthy criminal history including a 2023 attempt on officers, was released despite prior convictions. The two victims are hospitalized in Boston fighting for their lives.

BREAKING: BOTH RINO Senators @JohnCornyn Of Texas & @BillCassidy Of Louisiana Have Now Publicly Stated That IF THEY'RE REELECTED THEY WILL CONTINUE TO SUPPORT RINO @LeaderJohnThune AS SENATE MAJORITY LEADER!

This is getting much worse each passing day

@realMaalouf @MrsQuestnItAll ISIS with a formal govt. and nukes.

Remember Asia Bibi, a Pakistani Christian woman who spent 8 years on death row after being accused of “blasphemy” for drinking water from a Muslim’s cup. Asia was working in the fields with her Muslim coworkers. She got thirsty and went to fetch water from the well, where she took a drink with an old metal cup she had found. That’s all it took. Christians are considered dirty and impure in Islam, and she was accused of attempting to contaminate the Muslims’ water just by drinking from their cup. She was sentenced to death by hanging. The governor of her province voiced opposition to the verdict and was assassinated by his own bodyguard. When she was finally acquitted in 2018 due to international pressure, tens of thousands of Muslims rioted, demanding her immediate execution. A local poll found that 10 MILLION Pakistanis would personally kill her if given the chance. Just for drinking water from a Muslim’s cup. Her lawyer had to flee the country. And after months in hiding, she was finally able to escape Pakistan and received asylum in Canada. This is Pakistan, where non-Muslims live under the constant threat of death. The more I learn about this country, the more it just feels like ISIS with a formal government.

@MelAaronGibson1 @okieranchers Then the California Legislature wants to make it a crime for independent journalists to do investigative reporting for fraud. These people are the most corrupt individuals on the planet.

A young man in a hoodie With a phone Camera Exposing BILLIONS in hospice fraud Gavin Newsom mocks him Magically weeks later California Attorney General General investigates hospice fraud No credit to the young man in a hoodie who did it all SAY HIS NAME… NICK SHIRLEY

@okieranchers @JDunlap1974 I hope not, but the islamo-nazis have found their useful idiots, waving flags of Hamas and Hezbollah, while holding their gays for Palestine signs. Truly useful college educated idiots. They are total communists who are aligning themselves with murderers and terrorists.

@JDunlap1974 @PoliceKevin284 We have one rule of law in America, land if the wild boars, christianity, & the Constitution written by our founding fathers.We will never change our nation to please an invader.

New York City Muslim Mayor Zohran Mamdani today publicly called for America to align with Islam and "Prophet Muhammad" to support mass Muslim immigration, which is truly terrifying. He is also preparing to implement Sharia law in New York City!

@ourmanindisco @chicagotribune They will make it mandatory that all CPS schools will have to visit the library. That way they can launder the money to Obama, all while making the parents pay the admission fee. It will happen. Plus they can indoctrinate more kids

@chicagotribune So the first 23,000 or so visitors to this monstrosity will be just to pay for Valerie Jarret’s “salary”

Commentary: When the Obama Presidential Center opens, it will be a unique catalyst for a newly energized Chicago in the years ahead. chicagotribune.com/2026/05/10/opi…

If you live in Mexico or Columbia stop whatever you are doing and read this to understand what the drug cartels are about to experience.

@chicagotribune This article has to be satire. A newly energized Chicago? Are you serious? The only energizing that is happening is the street takeovers, the crime, and corrupt politicians funding illegal aliens. GTFOH!!!! LMAO!!! The tribune should have its business license revoked.

Hillary never was prosecuted from her private server because Obama was using it too. They're both dirty traitors, and they know it.

In 2022 Karen Bass ran for Mayor on solving homelessness, making Los Angeles safe, and making Los Angeles affordable. She accomplished none of those things so in 2026 she is running for Mayor on solving homelessness, making Los Angeles safe, and making Los Angeles affordable.

🚨 NYC just got played by their own "tax the rich" socialist Mayor. Zohran Mamdani promised it would ONLY hit the ultra-wealthy. Now he's pushing a massive 9.5% property tax hike that slams millions of homeowners, landlords, small businesses, and working families across the city. Classic communist scam: Lie to voters, then make everyone else pay for your failed policies. This is exactly why Trump keeps winning — America First means cutting waste and growing the economy, not punishing success until the middle class flees. New Yorkers, you voted for this. Enjoy the results. The rest of us warned you. What's your response to this......??👀 Drop your thoughts below👇!

Here’s an idea… F*cking fire Jerome Powell. If the duly elected POTUS can’t fire him then hes not part of the Executive Branch. He’s not part of the Judicial or Legislative branches either. Then he’s the head of an unconstitutional agency. Fire Powell. End the Fed. Simple.
