China just announced plans to impose 34% retaliatory tariffs on all goods imported from the U.S., after President Trump raised tariffs on imports from China up to 54% and global markets were sent reeling as a result.
Trump and his zionist-owned administration are behaving like drug addicts who can't seem to get past their addiction. The drug of choice here is perpetual war and the continued priming of the military/industrial/prison complex to create and supply yet more wars where ever and when ever the lunatics in Washington want. This is "leadership" by psychopaths!
For years and years now, China has been extracting $a trillion dollars per year from the US Economy. The Communist Party of China can literally pay cash for a nuclear powered submarine every month. With all the accoutrements, which likely include hypersonic missiles with 5 kiloton tactical nuclear weapons, for sinking aircraft carriers and depth charging submarines. Every month they can pay cash for a new submarine.
The USA military will be incapacitated within a half hour of starting a war with China and everybody knows it. Pete Hegseth is just posturing, with the intent of pulling the Taiwanese chip making into the USA.
The Kuomintang of today is just about the OPPOSITE of the Kuomintang of 1945, because the Chinese economy is pretty much capitalist now.
For many years, Taiwan was de facto "colonized" by Japan, economically. Currently Taiwan is economically "colonized" by the USA. NVidia exclusively manufactures their chips in Taiwan, for example.
Naturally Taiwan will merge with China over the ensuing years, particularly as the old school KMT fades away.
Ultimately the Trump Regime is setting up for another Big Print, like with covid, because the huge refinancing of $10 trillion dollars of Debt coming up later this year.
At minimum, the refinancing will "cost" $3 trillion dollars, though at the same time will juice the stock market.
The Stock Market does NOT reflect the health of the US Economy. "Trillions of dollars" did NOT just disappear, they went to The Banksters who sold their shares.
Debt is mouse-clicked from thin air, by The Banksters, for The Banksters (The Fed ARE The Banksters -- they are 100% the same entity). Then the Debt is converted to Hard Assets, BY The Banksters FOR The Banksters by any number of means. The rigged Stock Market is only ONE method.
Counter this vs Robert Lighthizer (Tucker Carlson. podcast). I like lots of Rachel. WE need counter - powers to unipolar, yes, for sure. So I have mixed emotions. We need power, real power; to combat "unipolar" (with zionism as head of this unipolar). But, Trump is correct that we need to stop the transfer of wealth , from US -to-China. REally must watch Lighthizer on Tucker's podcast. About 1 1/2 hours; packed with scary data. When Trump says 50% tariff vs China is reciprocal; Trump is not just talking about China's previous tariffs vs the US; Trump is knowing that China has used other mechanisms to game the system; such as currency manipulation ; suppressed labor ; non-tariff trade barriers, etc. I remember, about 4 years ago; when China allowed a rare strike, at the Chinese factory that produced the electric motors for Shop Vac. This disruption caused US owned / built brand Shop Vac to go bankrupt; and bough for pennies on the dollar by China. China now owns Shop Vac. NO NO NO. This is one out of a million same cases. Protectionism is good; not bad. No such thing as "free trade." Free trade is for people that have no intelligence at all; as all trade can and is gamed to domninate. US does it too. This takes Rachel down a grade; allowing this propaganda. Same for Jeff Sachs. Downgraded intel.
PS remember Foxconn workers, jumping to their deaths, in China? Tim Cook had to personally go and make sure nets were installed; so that workers couldn't kill themselves. Also remember China fishing in other country's waters; or aggression vs Philippines, etc. I don't trust China any further than I can throw it. Neither does Russia, underneath all the new lipstick.
Why do you look familiar, Rachel? It's like we've seen a relative; maybe have? Your parent(s)? Something. Too lazyy to look up; will leave it at "intrigue."
Thanks Rachel, KJ is a pleasure to listen to. His analyses are based on knowledge that we in the west have a hard time getting. His insights need to be spread as there are significant voices in the empire that distort the positive actions and offers to the west by China.
Led to Pearl Harbor as James Bradly wrote in his book The Imperial Cruise. The US used Japan to fight a proxy war against Russia. Japan went broke and lost 70,000 troops! We just love us some war 24 7.
That was 1905. Now 125 years later - Ukraine, Japan.
Wonderful interview from an incredible guest. Good job Rachel ❤️

I respect “One China.” Of course.

Rachel, this “..a lot at stake here..all around…” is getting a bit old and artificial.
Come on, be more spontaneous. ))
