Xi Jinping & Vladimir Putin Press Conference 21 March 2023

About 10 days ago, I wrote a piece entitled Could Events on Tuesday Spark A Civil War in the United States? about Trump’s potential arrest at the hands of the Manhattan District Attorney, George Soros-funded puppet, Alvin Braggs, a Biden appointee. Braggs alleges that Trump misclassified a “hush money” payment to Stormy Daniels. At the end of the article, I mentioned that I had a nagging feeling that Trump was goading them into arresting him.
Why would he do that? I wasn’t sure at the time, but now it’s more apparent than ever. Last Monday, the Daily Mail published the following letter from Stephen M. Ryan. Ryan is the attorney for Donald Trump’s former lawyer, the now-convicted felon Michael Cohen.
In the letter, Ryan confirms that Cohen paid Stephanie Clifford (Stormy Daniels) $130,000 from his money and that Trump, the Trump Organization or the Trump campaign did not reimburse Cohen “directly or indirectly.” (Keep in mind that Ryan could be disbarred/lose his license to practice law were he to lie in such a document.)
Notice the date of the letter?
February 8, 2018.
Yes, that’s right. It’s a 5-year-old letter to the Federal Elections Commission that I’m assuming Trump knew about and is why he kept prodding Braggs. I suspect Trump understands how much a wrongful arrest could work in his favor. Now, turmoil has erupted in the DA’s office, Braggs is struggling to get an indictment out of the Grand Jury, and Trump remains a free man.
Trump’s End Game & Legal Precedent
This political circus only reinforces Trump's long-time message that the "Swamp" (the establishment) is conducting a witch-hunt against him. And now, slowly, even people on the left are starting to see there might be something to the claim.
The most important thing to remember is this: Whatever happens to Trump will set a precedent for all other politicians down the road. The MSM talking heads have been saying ad nauseum that no former president or politician is above the law.
This will come back to bite TPTB in the ass.
Mark my words.
Let's look at a couple of other precedent-setting events:
Trump's tax returns. Trump forced Congress to go through all the legal channels to get their hands on them. After the IRS completed its audit of Trump, the US Supreme Court ruled that he had to hand over his tax returns. They were spotless. Not one flaw. Of course, Trump knew this, but it seems to me he wanted a legal precedent to be set.
Should Trump or another non-establishment Republican become the next President of the United States, this precedent will inevitably be used against those in the establishment. The first criminals to come to mind are Mitch McConnell (Republican), Nancy Pelosi (Democrat), Lindsay Graham (R), Adam Schiff (D), Mitt Romney (R), and Chuck Schumer (D). Ever wonder how these politicians managed to get rich while in office?
Mar-a-Lago raid. On August 8, 2022, the Department of Justice raided Donald Trump's residence, Mar-a-Lago, in West Palm Beach, Florida. The reason for the raid was the alleged mishandling of classified documents. If he had done as they claimed, charges would've been lodged against him almost immediately. But, to this day, Trump has not been charged at all.
As with the tax returns, this precedent of residential raids on former presidents and other politicians makes raids on the homes of the Clintons, the Bushes, and the Obamas fair game in the future. So, don't be surprised if we see several (former) presidents and politicians arrested, their homes raided, and their tax returns subpoenaed by the end of 2025.
The Trump Distraction
What I find interesting is how much attention the mainstream media has given these shenanigans. Not surprising, though. They all admit that Trump boosts ratings. (They’d probably be out of business without him.) But we can’t forget that these stations are all propaganda arms of TPTB, and one of their objectives is misdirection — look here, not there.
(To see how governments and the media use misdirection against the public, check out my article The Art of Misdirection and the World Today.)
So, what does the media not want us paying attention to?
The continued collapse of the global banking system, de-dollarization and the rest of the events in Moscow last week.
De-Dollarization & The End of the US Dollar as We Know It
Last week, Xi Jinping made a historic visit to Moscow. He and Putin spent a significant amount of time together, and their biggest announcement will be looked back upon as the final nail in the US dollar’s coffin. This is not something the Federal Reserve, US Treasury, and the Biden Administration want anyone noticing, especially Americans.
While Xi was in Moscow, Putin announced that it supports using the Chinese yuan for international trade with China and its other global trading partners. Putin stated, “We are in favour of using Chinese yuan in settlements between Russia and countries in Asia, Africa, Latin America.” (Source)
So, why is this announcement important?
It signals the abandonment of the US dollar in short order. And all those dollars will flood back into the US, accelerating the country’s inevitable descent into hyperinflation. It’s de-dollarization in action that I’ve been writing about for quite some time that may very well leave the US in financial ruin.
**Read my article The US Will Lose Its World Reserve Currency Status to understand better how a World Reserve Currency works and how it can fall from grace. Without this foundational information, Russia and China’s move and the impending dollar collapse may not make much sense.**
For a more in-depth financial look at Russia’s announcement regarding the yuan, you might find this Stansberry Research video with entrepreneur and former market commentator for Dutch National TV, Willem Middelkoop, helpful. Interview starts at 01:45.
It's worth pointing out that even the Kenyan President, William Ruto, offered "free advice" to his country's citizens last week that they might watch to get rid of their US dollars as fast as possible. He said those who don't would likely experience significant losses in two weeks. Ruto also announced that Kenya is ditching the petrodollar and, from here on out, will be buying oil using Kenyan shillings after establishing an agreement with Saudi Arabia.

Further proof of the world's steps to "de-dollarize."
China As the New Superpower
The United States’ days as the world superpower ended when the US (and Europe/NATO) decided to fight a proxy war with Russia via Ukraine instead of pursuing a diplomatic resolution. Many argue that it actually ended the day Joe Biden took office.
The establishment Democrats and the Neo-Cons are proving for the umpteenth time that they are two sides of the same warmongering coin.
(Remember, those who push for war stand to profit the most. It will be fascinating to discover all the kickbacks Western leaders have been getting as a result.)
In the meantime, China is stepping forward to attempt to broker a ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia. (This is the only aspect of Xi’s visit to Moscow that legacy media in the US gave any real attention to.)
However, this isn’t China’s first rodeo. On March 10th of this year, China negotiated a re-establishment of diplomatic ties between Iran and Saudi Arabia. Both countries have been hostile toward one another for years and have engaged in several proxy wars, backing opposing sides. Yemen is one of them. This peace deal has already yielded an exchange of over 900 prisoners in Yemen.
And it’s China the world has to thank for this progress. Of course, China has its economic interests in mind while doing such things, but that is to be expected. Note that the US was nowhere to be seen in any of this.
Here is an Al Jazeera report on the peace deal:
The Bifurcation of the World
As I mentioned in my recent series, As the Banks Fall (links below), the bifurcation of the world is becoming ever more apparent by the day. The East is rising as a new financial, economic, and political order, as the West fall from the pedestal on which it once placed itself, and its “leaders” demonstrate they are as competent as forks without tines.
This statement alone says it all, and the Chinese aren’t wrong: China is superseding the United States as the world superpower—a title that the US held for 100 years.
Buckle up, everyone. The weeks and months ahead are going to be eventful to say the least, and the won’t likely be easy—especially for those in the US or whose countries peg their currencies to the US dollar.
I don’t normally take to quoting Marxist/Bolshevik tyrants, but Vladimir Lenin had it right when he said:
“There are decades where nothing happens; and there are weeks when decades happen.”
