It's happening. Revelation 13:17:

I know this will anger some people but so be it. I find it interesting...

"More than 190K names removed from Georgia voter roll ahead of 2024 election"

https://www.atlantanewsfirst.com/202...2024-election/

Brandon carried Georgia by just over 11,000 votes in 2020. Nothing to see here people... move along... nothing to see...

"Go woke, go broke".

I don't understand how this has gained so much traction, let alone why this is even a pressing issue. More importantly, I can't believe how people are buying into this wokeness crap.

Send some of that rain to FL. At 8.30 PM last night, I could still feel the heat raising from the asphalt.

Chinese influences in our movies, car styles, even the push for EVs to an extent is a direct result of a free market. Companies cater to the richest most powerful consumers and the rest have to deal.

As Americans, this is shocking to us because from 1945 to about 2000ish, the world economy all major corporations catered to Americans bc we were the preeminent economy and world power. They weren’t gonna cater to the ussr bc while they were extremely powerful, they were communist.

The Chinese, saw how that Cold War played out, learned the lessons and went defacto fascist so they could keep their power structure but compete and eventually overtake the USA. Partial thanks goes to good ol Nixon for beginning the opening up of China to global trade.

Realistically, the if you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em mantra is the best option.

That means invest in the markets, make $$ for yourself and family regardless of which country runs the world. The USA if we don’t implode over the left right divide, will continue to be an economic powerhouse but we have to learn to share now.

American economic and increasingly military hegemony is a thing of the past. It is what it is.
