Show of strength. I worked internationally for 20 years, and a show of VIP’s is extremely effective in negotiations. Sun Tzu move.

Nobody is telling you what Trump actually did by bringing 30 CEOs to Beijing. 🚨 TRUMP DIDN'T SEND DIPLOMATS TO CHINA. HE SENT THE ENTIRE AMERICAN ECONOMY. Jensen Huang. Tim Cook. Elon Musk. Larry Fink. Boeing. BlackRock. JPMorgan. Meta. Visa. Not deputies. Not undersecretaries. The number one from each empire — on Air Force One — walking into Xi Jinping's room. Nobody is talking about what that actually signals: → Jensen Huang was a LAST-MINUTE addition — specifically to put AI and chips on the table in person → This is the first U.S. presidential visit to China in nearly a decade → Trump's framing wasn't "we want a deal" — it was "they're here to pay respect AND do business" → The message: America isn't asking. America is presenting terms. → 100% reciprocal — or the room full of titans walks out This isn't normal summit protocol. Normal summits send the State Department. Normal summits send the vice president. Trump sent the people who actually build, manufacture, invest, and deploy capital at scale — and told Xi: these are the bosses. They came here. That means something. In 2017, Trump told Beijing he didn't blame China for exploiting weak American presidents. He blamed the presidents. In 2026, he showed up with proof that era is over. The media is covering the handshake. They're NOT showing you that the most concentrated display of American private-sector power ever assembled just sat down across from the Chinese Communist Party and said: we're open — but it'll be reciprocal. That's not diplomacy. That's leverage walking into a room and introducing itself. I'll share more updates shortly, turn on notifications before it's too late.

Xi Jinping dejó al planeta con la boca abierta. En un banquete con solo 47 invitados, el presidente chino miró a Trump y soltó sin filtro: “Trump está haciendo a América grande de nuevo.” Sí, leíste bien. El líder del Partido Comunista Chino recitó el eslogan MAGA en público. Trump convirtió a Xi al MAGA. Xi continuó con un discurso épico: “En el 250 aniversario de la independencia de Estados Unidos, los más de 300 millones de estadounidenses están revitalizando el espíritu de patriotismo, innovación y emprendimiento, e inaugurando un nuevo capítulo en la historia de la nación.” Y remató: “Los pueblos de China y Estados Unidos son dos grandes pueblos. La gran revitalización de la nación china y hacer a América grande de nuevo pueden ir de la mano. Podemos ayudarnos mutuamente a triunfar y llevar prosperidad a todo el mundo.”

@Rachellane9606 @WharryMax @draloneboy Soviet Union had free health care. People died waiting to be treated. Had free childcare too…kids were brainwashed, turned into spies on their families. Equal pay for everyone too. Doctors & teachers earned $100-200…A MONTH. Most didn’t worry about gas prices-didn’t own cars.

Outrage is erupting across Virginia after Abigail Spanberger signed HB965 into law, effectively rendering Virginians’ presidential votes null and void, with the measure handing the states electoral votes to the national popular vote winner regardless of states results.

@WesternLensman Dem version of a bazaar, unfair question they pushed on Virginia voters. The vote to establish a nonpartisan process for districting in Virginia passed in 2020 by 2/3 of Virginia voters.

Hakeem Jeffries, still stinging from the humiliating rebuke in Virginia, rails against the VA Supreme Court: "Republicans have concluded that they need to cheat to win." "The notion that four unelected judges would overturn the votes of more than 3 million citizens in Virginia. Is this what Republicans are celebrating right now?" A legal decision he doesn’t like is now “cheating to win." Stay mad.

Most impressive delegation! Bet there was wheeling and dealing between these titans of business on the flight over too.
AJ Inapi (Allan)@aj_inapi

Most Americans still think geopolitics is politicians giving speeches at podiums. That’s the old world. What President Trump is doing in Beijing right now is something entirely different: Using CORPORATE POWER as a geopolitical weapon. Look at the delegation he assembled for China: • Elon Musk - Tesla / SpaceX • Tim Cook - Apple • Jensen Huang - Nvidia • Larry Fink - BlackRock • Stephen Schwarzman - Blackstone • David Solomon - Goldman Sachs • Jane Fraser - Citigroup • Kelly Ortberg - Boeing • H. Lawrence Culp Jr. - GE Aerospace • Brian Sikes - Cargill • Cristiano Amon - Qualcomm • Sanjay Mehrotra - Micron Technology • Ryan McInerney - Visa • Michael Miebach - Mastercard • Dina Powell McCormick - Meta This is not diplomacy. This is strategic market penetration. Now look at HOW carefully this lineup was built: 🚨 AI & CHIP DOMINANCE • Jensen Huang (Nvidia) → AI chips powering the global AI revolution • Cristiano Amon (Qualcomm) → Mobile chips, telecommunications, next-gen connectivity • Sanjay Mehrotra (Micron) → Memory chips critical for AI systems and data centers • Jim Anderson (Coherent) → Semiconductor materials and industrial laser tech • Jacob Thaysen (Illumina) → Biotechnology and genomic technology leadership This category alone represents the future of AI, computing, biotech, and technological supremacy. 🚨 FINANCIAL POWER • Larry Fink (BlackRock) → Controls over $10 TRILLION in assets • Stephen Schwarzman (Blackstone) → One of the world’s largest private equity giants • David Solomon (Goldman Sachs) → Elite Wall Street investment banking influence • Jane Fraser (Citigroup) → Global banking and cross-border finance • Ryan McInerney (Visa) → Global payment rails • Michael Miebach (Mastercard) → International transaction infrastructure These people don’t just move money. They influence where capital flows across the planet. 🚨 CONSUMER TECH & SUPPLY CHAINS • Tim Cook (Apple) → One of the largest and most sophisticated supply chains on Earth • Elon Musk (Tesla / SpaceX) → EV manufacturing, batteries, AI robotics, satellites, launch systems China knows these companies are deeply tied into global manufacturing ecosystems. 🚨 AEROSPACE & INDUSTRIAL POWER • Kelly Ortberg (Boeing) → Potential aircraft deals worth tens of billions • H. Lawrence Culp Jr. (GE Aerospace) → Aircraft engines and aerospace systems This is industrial leverage at the highest level. 🚨 AGRICULTURE & REAL ECONOMY • Brian Sikes (Cargill) → Agriculture, food supply chains, commodity trade Food security and agricultural imports are massive leverage points in U.S.-China relations. Now step back and look at the entire picture. This delegation covers: - AI - Semiconductors - Aerospace - Finance - Payments - Agriculture - Consumer technology - Manufacturing - Supply chains - Investment capital Every major economic battlefield between the United States and China is represented in one room. That is not random. That is coordinated strategic planning. The media will frame this as “just another summit.” It’s not. This is a private-sector strike force built to secure: - Market access - Investment deals - Supply-chain positioning - Regulatory concessions - Tech leverage - Aircraft purchases - Agricultural agreements - Financial expansion The politicians are mostly in the background because politicians talk. These people actually control: - factories - chips - satellites - patents - software - logistics - payment systems - manufacturing - capital flows That is where real power lives in 2026. Whether people love Trump or hate him, Americans need to understand the scale of what they’re looking at. This is statecraft merged with corporate power. And it’s being deployed with military-level coordination. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!! God bless President Trump! God bless America!

I’m a lifelong Virginian. @ScottJenningsKY summed this up perfectly. For 3 months Obama & Jeffries were all over our airwaves pushing this ludicrous redistricting with deceptive ballot wording that was anything but fair. They poured $70 million into it. Lost in Supreme Court.
Curtis Houck@CurtisHouck

.@ScottJenningsKY on Democrats going DEFCON-1 since losing their Virginia gerrymander... “There's a better chance of me sprouting wings and flying out of that window over there than the United States Supreme Court dealing with this in any way, because this is a state Supreme Court ruling on a state constitution. The U.S. Supreme Court doesn't deal with these kinds of things, number one. Number two, the freakout in Virginia has been so extreme. You even have Democrats over there who are saying they want to effectively, politically decapitate the entire Virginia Supreme Court by putting an age limit of 54 so they can get rid of every existing justice and install people who will promise to rule a certain way on a certain case. You know, they went from, oh, this is just a temporary map thing to let's burn down the entire Virginia Supreme Court in about two seconds over there in Virginia, which tells you all you need to know about just how power hungry and corrupt the Democrats are in Virginia. This is not going to work at the U.S. Supreme Court. And this whole project of maximum warfare by Hakeem Jeffries is completely blown up in their face.” “I mean, in Virginia, you had Democrats in Virginia who broke the law and broke the state constitution to try to move a 6-5, fairly constructed map to a 10-1. They got struck down by Democrats on their own Supreme Court, and now they want to decapitate an entire branch of government over it? It's ridiculous.”

Yes indeed. We cannot allow a new communist regime to take hold.
Brivael Le Pogam@brivael

Tout mec qui se réclame du marxisme en 2026 devrait être traité socialement comme un ancien nazi en 1946. Pas par excès. Par cohérence intellectuelle. Le communisme a tué entre 85 et 100 millions de personnes au XXe siècle. C'est, et de très loin, l'idéologie la plus meurtrière de toute l'histoire de l'humanité. Voici le top 10 de l'horreur, et pourquoi il est urgent d'ouvrir le Nuremberg du communisme. Cuba (1959 à aujourd'hui). Castro et le Che, héros des t-shirts d'étudiants Sciences Po. 35 000 à 140 000 morts, exécutions sommaires, 2 millions d'exilés, dissidents enfermés à vie pour un poème, économie ruinée pendant 65 ans. L'île-prison qui sert encore de modèle à une partie de la gauche occidentale. Éthiopie communiste (1974-1991). La "Terreur rouge" du régime de Mengistu : 500 000 morts dans les purges, et une famine artificielle qui en tue entre 500 000 et 1 million de plus. Autour d'1,5 million de morts pour appliquer un manuel marxiste-léniniste à un pays africain. Vietnam et Laos (à partir de 1975). Camps de rééducation pour 1 à 2,5 millions de personnes après la chute de Saïgon. Boat people : entre 200 000 et 400 000 morts en mer, fuyant le "paradis socialiste" sur des coquilles de noix. Quand un peuple préfère mourir noyé que rester chez lui, ça devrait suffire à clore le débat. Roumanie de Ceausescu (1965-1989). Securitate omniprésente, avortement interdit pour produire des "ouvriers", orphelinats-mouroirs, enfants morts par dizaines de milliers dans des conditions abominables. Un peuple entier mis en cage pour servir une utopie productiviste. Corée du Nord (1948 à aujourd'hui). Trois générations de famille Kim, des camps de concentration ouverts en ce moment même pendant que tu lis ce thread, des enfants nés dans les goulags qui meurent dans les goulags. Famine des années 1990 : 600 000 à 2,5 millions de morts. Le seul État stalinien encore en activité au XXIe siècle. Khmers rouges au Cambodge (1975-1979). Pol Pot et son projet d'année zéro maoïste : entre 1,7 et 2 millions de morts en moins de 4 ans, soit 21 à 25% de la population cambodgienne. Vidage des villes en 24 heures, exécution des intellectuels (parfois pour le simple fait de porter des lunettes), torture industrielle à S-21, charniers des Killing Fields. La performance la plus pure du communisme : tuer un quart de son propre peuple en mode accéléré. Goulag soviétique (1918-1956). Le système concentrationnaire bolchevique : 18 millions de personnes y sont passées, entre 1,5 et 2 millions y sont mortes de froid, faim, épuisement, exécutions. Soljénitsyne a écrit 2 000 pages pour le décrire, et certains universitaires français trouvent encore le moyen de relativiser. Holodomor (1932-1933). Staline organise une famine artificielle en Ukraine pour briser la paysannerie et le nationalisme ukrainien. Entre 3,5 et 7 millions de morts ukrainiens (estimations démographiques détaillées : 3,9 millions). Plus 1,5 million de Kazakhs et 1,5 million de Russes du sud sur la même période. La loi des "cinq épis" envoyait au goulag pour 10 ans le vol de quelques grains de blé. Pendant que les paysans mouraient, l'URSS exportait du grain pour acheter des machines. URSS de Lénine et Staline (hors goulag et Holodomor). Terreur rouge dès 1918, déportations massives des "koulaks" (4 millions de paysans déportés), purges de 1937-38 (700 000 fusillés en 18 mois pour atteindre des quotas régionaux), déportations ethniques entières (Tchétchènes, Tatars de Crimée, Allemands de la Volga). Bilan soviétique global : 15 à 20 millions de morts directes du régime. Chine maoïste (1949-1976). Le record absolu, et de très loin. Grand Bond en avant (1958-1962) : entre 30 et 45 millions de morts par famine artificielle, dans la plus grande hécatombe de l'histoire de l'humanité. Révolution culturelle (1966-1976) : 1 à 2 millions de morts, des dizaines de millions de vies brisées, persécutions des "ennemis de classe", élites massacrées par leurs propres élèves. Réforme agraire et campagnes anti-droitières des années 50 : encore plusieurs millions de morts. Bilan chinois total : 65 millions de morts. Un seul homme. Un seul système. Un seul livre rouge. Total cumulé : 85 à 100 millions de morts. Le Livre noir du communisme, dirigé par Stéphane Courtois et publié au Robert Laffont en 1997, l'a documenté pays par pays, archive par archive. Ce n'est pas un pamphlet, c'est de l'histoire. Et pourtant. En 1945, on a fait Nuremberg. Et on a eu raison. On a jugé les bourreaux. On a interdit les symboles. On a rendu socialement infâme l'idéologie qui avait produit l'horreur. Personne ne peut aujourd'hui se promener avec une croix gammée sans être poursuivi, viré, exclu. Tant mieux. Mais pour le communisme, qui a tué 6 fois plus de personnes que le nazisme ? Rien. Pas de Nuremberg. Pas de procès. Pas d'interdiction. Au contraire : marteau et faucille en t-shirt à Coachella, Lénine sur les sacs à dos d'étudiants en Master, Mao sur les murs des facs de socio, Che Guevara icône pop dans toutes les boutiques de centre-ville. Et au Parlement européen, des partis qui se réclament encore explicitement de cette idéologie sans que personne ne sourcille. Il faut ouvrir le Nuremberg du communisme. Pas pour persécuter. Pour assainir intellectuellement. Pour que défendre le marxisme-léninisme en 2026 devienne ce que c'est réellement : la défense de la pire idéologie que l'humanité ait jamais enfantée. Une doctrine qui a produit, partout où elle a été appliquée, exactement le même résultat : famines, goulags, charniers, dictatures, ruine matérielle et morale. 100 millions de morts ne sont pas un accident d'application. Ce sont la conséquence directe et logique d'une doctrine qui pose que la propriété est un crime, que le marché est un mal, que l'individu n'existe pas, et que pour faire un homme nouveau il faut détruire l'ancien. Le marxisme n'est pas une "belle idée mal appliquée". C'est une idéologie nauséabonde, complètement décorrelée du réel, qui a méthodiquement produit la mort sur tous les continents où on l'a essayée. Ses défenseurs en 2026 devraient être traités avec exactement le même mépris social que les défenseurs de toute autre idéologie totalitaire vaincue. Pas plus. Pas moins. Juste de la cohérence.

So, @hakeemjeffries is up for reelection this year. And sure, he's not my representative but you know, since he took time out of his busy schedule to try and nuke my state, I feel like we should return the favor and nuke his campaign. It's only fair. Not to mention, he obviously doesn't care about his own district AND he's 55. Wait ... I KNOW. We should push for legislation that unseats any Democrat over the age of 54 since it's clear they themselves don't believe anyone that age or older is competent enough to serve. Who's with me?

@AssocAnderson Democrats are making a more radical power play in Virginia to take over the Supreme Court. After trying to push their convoluted redistricting. They seek a more extreme ONE PARTY state, throwing democracy out the window and trying to install an authoritarian government.

Tim Anderson@AssocAnderson·
Can you imagine that the Democrats are discussing lowering the retirement age of the Va Supreme Court to 54 which would force the entire court to resign (including the three that voted with them). Then stack the court with 7 justices who would have pledged to reverse the redistricting decision. This is your Democrat party. Power hungry thugs. Willing to burn a high court to the ground that dares to disagree with them. They should never have power again.
