Amid the latest evidence that Hunter and Joe Biden are selling their ability to influence U.S. institutions to the benefit of foreign governments, I have received numerous requests to once again explain what those foreign interests are purchasing.
Understanding the purchase requires understanding the term “exfiltration” of wealth. To understand the purchasing system, it becomes necessary to understand the underlying financial & economic constructs; the cornerstone of U.S. wealth. We begin…
President Trump is disrupting decades of multinational financial interests who use the U.S. as a host for their ideological & economic objectives. President Trump is confronting multinational corporations and the global constructs of economic systems that were put in place, by DC politicians and billionaire elites, to the detriment of the USA; ie. YOU.
There are trillions at stake. All else is chaff and countermeasures.
We are already familiar how China, Mexico and ASEAN nations export our raw materials (ore, coking coal, rare earth minerals etc.). The raw materials are used to manufacture goods overseas, the cheap durable goods are then shipped back into the U.S. for purchase.
It is within this decades-long process where we lost the manufacturing base, and the multinational economic planners (World Trade Organization) put us on a path to being a “service driven” economy.
The road to a “service-driven economy” is paved with a great disparity between financial classes. The wealth gap is directly related to the inability of the middle-class to thrive.
Elite financial interests, including those within Washington DC, gain wealth and power, the U.S. workforce is reduced to servitude, “service”, of their affluent needs.
The destruction of the U.S. industrial and manufacturing base is EXACTLY WHY the wealth gap has exploded in the past 30 years.
The exact same exfiltration and exploitation has been happening, with increased speed, over the past 15-20 years with “CONSUMABLE GOODS“, ie food. Raw material foodstuff is exported to China, ASEAN nations and Mexico, processed and shipped back into the U.S. as a finished product.
Recent example: Salmonella Ritz Bits (whey); Nabisco shuts New Jersey manufacturing plant, moves food production to Mexico… the result: Salmonella crackers. This is the same design-flow with food as previously exploited by other economic sectors, including auto manufacturing.
Archer Daniels Midland (ADM), Monsanto, Nestlé, PepsiCo, Bunge, Potash Corp, Cargill or Wilmar, stay out of the public eye by design. Most megafood conglomerates have roots going back a century or more, but ever-increasing consolidation means that their current corporate owners may have been established only a few years ago. Welcome to the complex world of Big Ag:
Start with the so-called Big Six [PDF]. Monsanto, Syngenta, Dow AgroSciences, DuPont, Bayer, and BASF produce roughly three-quarters of the pesticides used in the world. The first five also sell more than half the name-brand seeds that farmers plant, including varieties modified for resistance to the very pesticides they also sell. Meanwhile, if farmers want fertilizer, a list of 10 other companies, starting with PotashCorp, account for about two-thirds of the world market.
Once the plowing, planting, nurturing, and harvesting are done, around 80 percent of major crops pass through the hands of four traders: ADM, Bunge, Cargill, and Louis Dreyfus. These companies aren’t just financiers, of course—Cargill, for example, produces animal feed and many other products, and it supplies more than a fifth of all meat sold in the United States.
And if you ever had any ideas about going vegetarian to avoid the conglomerates, forget about it: ADM processes about a third of all soybeans in the United States and a sixth of those grown around the globe. It also brews more than 5.6 billion liters of ethanol for gasoline and pours more than 2 million metric tons of high-fructose corn syrup every year. And it produces a sixth of the world’s chocolate. {Continue – and go Deep}
Multinational corporations, BIG AG, are now invested in controlling the outputs of U.S. agricultural industry and farmers. This process is why food prices have risen exponentially in the past decade.
The free market is not determining price; there is no “supply and demand” influence within this modern agricultural dynamic. Food commodities are now a controlled market just like durable goods. The raw material (harvests writ large) are exploited by the financial interests of massive multinational corporations. This is “contract farming”.
If U.S. supply and demand were the sole aspects of the domestic market price for food, we would see the prices of aggregate food products drop by half almost immediately. Some perishable food products would predictably drop so dramatically in price it is unfathomable how far the prices would fall.
Behind this dynamic we find the international corporate and financial interests who are inherently at risk from President Trump’s “America-First” economic and trade platform. Believe it or not, President Trump is up against an entire world economic establishment.
When we understand how trade works in the modern era we understand why the agents within the system are so adamantly opposed to U.S. President Trump.
♦The biggest lie in modern economics, willingly spread and maintained by corporate media, is that a system of global markets still exists.
It doesn’t.
Every element of global economic trade is controlled and exploited by massive institutions, multinational banks and multinational corporations. Institutions like the World Trade Organization (WTO) and World Bank control trillions of dollars in economic activity. Underneath that economic activity there are people who hold the reigns of power over the outcomes. These individuals and groups are the stakeholders in direct opposition to principles of America-First national economics.
The modern financial constructs of these entities have been established over the course of the past three decades. When you understand how they manipulate the economic system of individual nations you begin to understand understand why they are so fundamentally opposed to President Trump.
In the Western World, separate from communist control perspectives (ie. China), “Global markets” are a modern myth; nothing more than a talking point meant to keep people satiated with sound bites they might find familiar. Global markets have been destroyed over the past three decades by multinational corporations who control the products formerly contained within global markets.
The same is true for “Commodities Markets”. The multinational trade and economic system, run by corporations and multinational banks, now controls the product outputs of independent nations. The free market economic system has been usurped by entities who create what is best described as ‘controlled markets’.
U.S. President Trump smartly understands what has taken place. Additionally he uses economic leverage as part of a broader national security policy; and to understand who opposes President Trump specifically because of the economic leverage he creates, it becomes important to understand the objectives of the global and financial elite who run and operate the institutions. The Big Club.
Understanding how trillions of trade dollars influence geopolitical policy we begin to understand the three-decade global financial construct they seek to protect.
That is, global financial exploitation of national markets.
FOUR BASIC ELEMENTS:
♦Multinational corporations purchase controlling interests in various national outputs (harvests an raw materials), and ancillary industries, of developed industrial western nations. {example}
♦The Multinational Corporations making the purchases are underwritten by massive global financial institutions, multinational banks. (*note* in China it is the communist government underwriting the purchase)
♦The Multinational Banks and the Multinational Corporations then utilize lobbying interests to manipulate the internal political policy of the targeted nation state(s).
♦With control over the targeted national industry or interest, the multinationals then leverage export of the national asset (exfiltration) through trade agreements structured to the benefit of lesser developed nation states – where they have previously established a proactive financial footprint.
Against the backdrop of President Trump confronting China; and against the backdrop of NAFTA having been replaced by the USMCA; and against the necessary need to support the key U.S. steel industry; revisiting the economic influences within the modern import/export dynamic will help conceptualize the issues at the heart of the matter.
There are a myriad of interests within each trade sector that make specific explanation very challenging; however, here’s the basic outline.
For three decades economic “globalism” has advanced, quickly. Everyone accepts this statement, yet few actually stop to ask who and what are behind this – and why?
Influential people with vested financial interests in the process have sold a narrative that global manufacturing, global sourcing, and global production was the inherent way of the future. The same voices claimed the American economy was consigned to become a “service-driven economy.”
What was always missed in these discussions is that advocates selling this global-economy message have a vested financial and ideological interest in convincing the information consumer it is all just a natural outcome of economic progress.
It’s not.
It’s not natural at all. It is a process that is entirely controlled, promoted and utilized by large conglomerates, lobbyists, purchased politicians and massive financial corporations.
Again, I’ll try to retain the larger altitude perspective without falling into the traps of the esoteric weeds. I freely admit this is tough to explain and I may not be successful.
Bulletpoint #1: ♦ Multinational corporations purchase controlling interests in various national elements of developed industrial western nations.
This is perhaps the most challenging to understand. In essence, thanks specifically to the way the World Trade Organization (WTO) was established in 1995, national companies expanded their influence into multiple nations, across a myriad of industries and economic sectors (energy, agriculture, raw earth minerals, etc.). This is the basic underpinning of national companies becoming multinational corporations.
Think of these multinational corporations as global entities now powerful enough to reach into multiple nations -simultaneously- and purchase controlling interests in a single economic commodity.
A historic reference point might be the original multinational enterprise, energy via oil production. (Exxon, Mobil, BP, etc.)
However, in the modern global world, it’s not just oil; the resource and product procurement extends to virtually every possible commodity and industry. From the very visible (wheat/corn) to the obscure (small minerals, and even flowers).
Bulletpoint #2 ♦ The Multinational Corporations making the purchases are underwritten by massive global financial institutions, multinational banks.
During the past several decades national companies merged. The largest lemon producer company in Brazil, merges with the largest lemon company in Mexico, merges with the largest lemon company in Argentina, merges with the largest lemon company in the U.S., etc. etc. National companies, formerly of one nation, become “continental” companies with control over an entire continent of nations.
…. or it could be over several continents or even the entire world market of Lemon/Widget production. These are now multinational corporations. They hold interests in specific segments (this example lemons) across a broad variety of individual nations.
National laws on Monopoly building are not the same in all nations. Most are not as structured as the U.S.A or other more developed nations (with more laws). During the acquisition phase, when encountering a highly developed nation with monopoly laws, the process of an umbrella corporation might be needed to purchase the targeted interests within a specific nation. The example of Monsanto applies here.
Bulletpoint #3 ♦The Multinational Banks and the Multinational Corporations then utilize lobbying interests to manipulate the internal political policy of the targeted nation state(s).
With control of the majority of actual lemons the multinational corporation now holds a different set of financial values than a local farmer or national market. This is why commodities exchanges are essentially dead. In the aggregate the mercantile exchange is no longer a free or supply-based market; it is now a controlled market exploited by mega-sized multinational corporations.
Instead of the traditional ‘supply/demand’ equation determining prices, the corporations look to see what nations can afford what prices. The supply of the controlled product is then distributed to the country according to their ability to afford the price. This is essentially the bastardized and politicized function of the World Trade Organization (WTO). This is also how the corporations controlling WTO policy maximize profits.
Back to the lemons. A corporation might hold the rights to the majority of the lemon production in Brazil, Argentina and California/Florida. The price the U.S. consumer pays for the lemons is directed by the amount of inventory (distribution) the controlling corporation allows in the U.S.
If the U.S. lemon harvest is abundant, the controlling interests will export the product to keep the U.S. consumer spending at peak or optimal price. A U.S. customer might pay $2 for a lemon, a Mexican customer might pay .50¢, and a Canadian $1.25.
The bottom line issue is the national supply (in this example ‘harvest/yield’) is not driving the national price because the supply is now controlled by massive multinational corporations.
The mistake people often make is calling this a “global commodity” process. In the modern era this “global commodity” phrase is particularly nonsense.
A true global commodity is a process of individual nations harvesting/creating a similar product and bringing that product to a global market. Individual nations each independently engaged in creating a similar product.
Under modern globalism this process no longer takes place. It’s a complete fraud. Massive multinational corporations control the majority of production inside each nation and therefore control the global product market and price. It is a controlled system.
EXAMPLE: Part of the lobbying in the food industry is to advocate for the expansion of U.S. taxpayer benefits to underwrite the costs of the domestic food products they control. By lobbying DC these multinational corporations get congress and policy-makers to expand the basis of who can use EBT and SNAP benefits (state reimbursement rates).
Expanding the federal subsidy for food purchases is part of the corporate profit dynamic.
With increased taxpayer subsidies, the food price controllers can charge more domestically and export more of the product internationally. Taxes, via subsidies, go into their profit margins. The corporations then use a portion of those enhanced profits in contributions to the politicians. It’s a circle of money.
In highly developed nations this multinational corporate process requires the corporation to purchase the domestic political process (as above) with individual nations allowing the exploitation in varying degrees. As such, the corporate lobbyists pay hundreds of millions to politicians for changes in policies and regulations; one sector, one product, or one industry at a time. These are specialized lobbyists.
In Mexico and underdeveloped countries when government officials take payments from companies, cartels and corporations, we call that system “corrupt”. However, in the U.S. when politicians take the same payments we call it “lobbying”; the process is identical.
EXAMPLE: The Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS)
CFIUS is an inter-agency committee authorized to review transactions that could result in control of a U.S. business by a foreign person (“covered transactions”), in order to determine the effect of such transactions on the national security of the United States.
CFIUS operates pursuant to section 721 of the Defense Production Act of 1950, as amended by the Foreign Investment and National Security Act of 2007 (FINSA) (section 721) and as implemented by Executive Order 11858, as amended, and regulations at 31 C.F.R. Part 800.
The CFIUS process has been the subject of significant reforms over the past several years. These include numerous improvements in internal CFIUS procedures, enactment of FINSA in July 2007, amendment of Executive Order 11858 in January 2008, revision of the CFIUS regulations in November 2008, and publication of guidance on CFIUS’s national security considerations in December 2008 (more)
Bulletpoint #4 ♦ With control over the targeted national industry or interest, the multinationals then leverage export of the national asset (exfiltration) through trade agreements structured to the benefit of lesser developed nation states – where they have previously established a proactive financial footprint.
The process of charging the U.S. consumer more for a product, that under normal national market conditions would cost less, is a process called exfiltration of wealth. This is the basic premise, the cornerstone, behind the catch-phrase ‘globalism’.
It is never discussed.
To control the market price some contracted product may even be secured and shipped with the intent to allow it to sit idle (or rot). It’s all about controlling the price and maximizing the profit equation. To gain the same $1 profit a widget multinational might have to sell 20 widgets in El-Salvador (.25¢ each), or two widgets in the U.S. ($2.50/each).
Think of the process like the historic reference of OPEC (Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries). Only in the modern era massive corporations are playing the role of OPEC and it’s not oil being controlled, thanks to the WTO it’s almost everything.
Again, this is highlighted in the example of taxpayers subsidizing the food sector (EBT, SNAP etc.), the corporations can charge U.S. consumers more. Ex. more beef is exported, red meat prices remain high at the grocery store, but subsidized U.S. consumers can better afford the high prices.
Of course, if you are not receiving food payment assistance (middle-class) you can’t eat the steaks because you can’t afford them. (Not accidentally, it’s the same scheme in the ObamaCare healthcare system)
Agriculturally, multinational corporate Monsanto says: ‘all your harvests are belong to us‘. Contract with us, or you lose because we can control the market price of your end product. Downside is that once you sign that contract, you agree to terms that are entirely created by the financial interests of the larger corporation; not your farm.
The multinational agriculture lobby is massive. We willingly feed the world as part of the system; but you as a grocery customer pay more per unit at the grocery store because domestic supply no longer determines domestic price.
Within the agriculture community the (feed-the-world) production export factor also drives the need for labor. Labor is a cost. The multinational corps have a vested interest in low labor costs. Ergo, open border policies. (ie. willingly purchased republicans not supporting border wall etc.).
This corrupt economic manipulation/exploitation applies over multiple sectors, and even in the sub-sector of an industry like steel. China/India purchases the raw material, coking coal, then sells the finished good (rolled steel) back to the global market at a discount. Or it could be rubber, or concrete, or plastic, or frozen chicken parts etc.
The ‘America First’ Trump-Trade Doctrine upsets the entire construct of this multinational export/control dynamic. Team Trump focus exclusively on bilateral trade deals, with specific trade agreements targeted toward individual nations (not national corporations).
‘America-First’ is also specific policy at a granular product level looking out for the national interests of the United States, U.S. workers, U.S. companies and U.S. consumers.
Under President Trump’s Trade positions, balanced and fair trade with strong regulatory control over national assets, exfiltration of U.S. national wealth is essentially stopped.
This puts many current multinational corporations, globalists who previously took a stake-hold in the U.S. economy with intention to export the wealth, in a position of holding contracted interest of an asset they can no longer exploit.
Perhaps now we understand better how massive multi-billion multinational corporations and institutions are aligned against President Trump. They want to return to the status quo where they can purchase and control American wealth. President Trump stands in their way.
How do I know President Trump stands against them? …WATCH:

Penalties should be swift and furious.
Yeah I know I can dream.
It ain’t no dream, patriot. You know what you’re doing, so do I, so does Trump and so do millions of other upstanding people all over the world. We are in this together. Do. Not. Despair. Even if he loses this crooked, wrecked, fixed “election” do you think Trump will stop? There ain’t no quit in DJT and I’d bet good money there ain’t no quit in you either. We will slam Tom Donohue and Richard Trumka, Chuck Schumer, Pelosi, Biden, Obama, Harry Reid, Clinton, Paul Ryan, John Boehner — all of’em, dammit — slammed against the wall.
China pays a few million to American politicians and gains a few Trillion.
Joe and Hunter spent 8 days in China negotiating a sell-out.
The Chinese sand islands off the coast of the Philippines are built by China, for enriching the Biden family.
Thank you for your response maxxheadroom777
The Bidens are a crime family in the same cast as the Clinton Crime Family.
What the Biden crime family has done is nothing compared to what Osama has stolen and his payoffs.
Super—this is the main reason he was put on the ballot over more qualified scumbags.
Biden is not the only one corrupted.
Understatement is the most effective method of making your point loudly. Thanks for effective brevity!

It’s a mind-numbingly complex web of interrelationships all to the detriment of the consumer and true capitalist and the benefit of the crony capitalist and crooked politician (at this stage, the term crooked politician is a redundancy).
The Democrat machine is trying to distract people from their actual corruption (Selling out the US govt to foreign interests, bribery, charity fraud etc etc ) thats been revealed, by putting out stuff they are convinced will fool the “peasants”. Examples:
-Trump ( or someone in his family):
– Owns a business ( oooooh)
– That business borrows money from foreign banks ( ooooh)
– That business had tax losses for several years (ooooh)
– That business had depreciation deductions and therefore had no income ( ooooh)
– In spite of having no income, the business had plenty of cash flows ( ooooh, whaaaat?)
That kind of thing. They are relying on the stupidity of people. They are relying on ignorance. Most large corporations in the US do all of the above. We have very detailed tax laws and corporate laws that govern such transactions. There is nothing nefarious about any of it. We have a huge legal sector in our country to deal with issues that arise from such transactions. Its , in short, the way businesses operate in the today’s world.
Not just the democrats. Don’t fool yourself by party line. Most are working against our interests.
Traitors.
THIS…….
The process of charging the U.S. consumer more for a product, that under normal national market conditions would cost less, is a process called exfiltration of wealth. This is the basic premise, the cornerstone, behind the catch-phrase ‘globalism’.
I Have so much trouble trying to make asshats understand why we pay so much.
“Exfiltration Of Wealth” – the key to being well-taught.
This one key phrase allows me to retain/ contain Sundance’s flow of thought.
China has a huge amount to lose if DJT succeeds in overturning this system of globalism, trade, multinationals etc. Its an existential risk.
Iam convinced they are behind the Democrat Machine. They spend peanuts to buy off our corrupt politicians – literally peanuts. Create political turmoil. Buy up large tracts of agricultural land in the midwest ( the most valuable resource in the world). Infiltrate our Universities, research labs etc to steal intellectual property. On and on.
Yes it was Chin-zinni all along!! And where’s Barrzinni ?
Its global. China is just another weapon, like socialism, to destroy the republic. Just as the Muslim Brotherhood, Iran and Saudi Arabia played their roles. Just as Merkel, Macron, May and Bolton in the first picture were playing their roles. This is a globalist run operation, not China. Its a club of corruption where all globalist players are on the take, share the spoils and bleed America dry. From governments the world over to media the world over, to Wall St, from international bodies, to charities, pharmaceuticals, the list goes on and on. All on the take, all sharing the spoils, all with the common goal of bleeding America dry economically, militarily, socially and spiritually.
Great summary Sundance. Time to break up monopolies on a global basis.
Big Ag got big also through tax laws forcing families to sell their farms. Healthcare insurance and costs went up upwards of 25-50% per year for the couple years before Obamacare was passed, then continues to go up afterward. Manufacturing shifted to China too. Look at what FB, Google/YT and Twatter are doing today with censorship during an election period.

Trump’s America first policy is akin to the story of David and Goliath.
I hope Trump’s slingshot is just as good an aim as David’s.
I hope that God is with Trump, as he was with David.
There is simply not enough attention on this topic.
This explains much of the interests in prior economic policies. Why work harder to earn wealth when you can control the market and extract the maximum value from it effortlessly? Why care where the money comes from? There is always more money to be had.
Only problem with going down that road, is it completely ignores the real sources of wealth. Combine this with intentionally debasing the currency and what is one to think?
For some perspective $1 in 1917 is worth somewhere around $22.15 today.
I would still would say some of the worst things to ever happen, was the passing of both the 16th and 17th Amendments to the Constitution.
And creation of the Federal Reserve – all in 1913.
This is but one reason that Wilson will always be in the top ranks for the worst President of the United States.
The federal reserve has even failed at meeting the public expectations of it. After all, it was a major cause of the Great Depression, and pretty involved in every market bubble since.
EXCEPT…..the Federal Reserve Act of 1913 has never been legally challenged. It is unconstitutionally. The US Constitution specifically says CONGRESS is to set monetary policy and does not give them the power to designate another entity to do it. The 16th and 17th Amendments were NEVER legally ratified. If you do not believe me then look it up. They were playing shenanigans back then too. I use Congress’ own line “They were deemed to have passed.”
Well then…a VERY SMART LAWYER, I have 2 in mind, might want to present that before the SC and see if they can be struck down or having a congress that strikes them…WOWZA!!!!
Kroesus…ABSOLUTELY CORRECT…the 16th Amendment WAS RATIFIED BY CONGRESS.
The following URL shows the STEPS TO RATIFICATION OF AMENDMENTS TO THE US CONSTITUTION: https://www.ncsl.org/research/about-state-legislatures/amending-the-u-s-constitution.aspx
Interesting history on the 16th Amendment:
https://history.house.gov/Historical-Highlights/1901-1950/The-ratification-of-the-16th-Amendment/
“For some perspective $1 in 1917 is worth somewhere around $22.15 today.” Somehow, my brain is telling me that that is an incorrect way to state the comparison. Perhaps (?) it should state “It takes $22.15 to buy today, what $1.00 would buy in 1917.
(I know, I know, but to me it sounds better.. o.k.?)
If we unwind these non-stop foreign wars, shrink the size of the military-intelligence complex ( smaller, very high tech and focused oin defence – not empire building). And clean up our govt corruption with a high powered garden hose – i am convinced the prosperity in this country will be beyond what any of us can imagine after 8years of Clinton+ 8 years of Bush+ 8 years ogf Obama ( thats 24 years of an actively horrible got).
Add in GHW Bush – 28 years.
NAFTA was negotiated during GHW Bush term, ratified during Clinton’s first term.
For decades, I subscribed to the WSJ and read their accounts of how multilateral economics benefited all. That America was to be successful in the digital technological advances as other countries would produce the basic manufacturing necessities. I thought OK, until over those years, I saw in my travels that our country was physically deteriorating as manufacturing declined and I asked myself, Is this what is right for America?. I canceled my WSJ subscription many years ago after decades. I did not believe that the WSJ was speaking for the better of America. A huge correction is needed.
Remember when hunter refused to produce evidence of his ‘wealth’ for the judge in his unmarried “baby mama” case?
hunter would have had to produce records under oath. If he did not declare the foreign bribes and kickbacks, he would be subject to state court perjury conviction, which could not be ‘fixed by DOJ?FBI corruption. If he did declare, ……
Whqt to do…, what to do…… => Decision: settle with the baby mama, there is always more bribe money where that came from.
Beau Geste: Yes to that.
So the IRS knows when I’m missing a charitable receipt……………………………but nothing on the real crime families of America???
The real crime families appoint the people that run the IRS (DOJ) who then hire their own and let them work their way up the food chain. The firewalls have been under construction for a good 30 years now.
As currently configured the IRS is the enforcement arm of the US Treasury which is a subservient organization to the Federal Reserve Bank under the illegal Federal Reserve Act of 1913.
Yes … thank you for the reminder … crack-head hunter likely told stripper-momma way too much.
I read Jen Boone at FBI receceived Hunters laptop in Dec 2019 before Trumps impeachment in Jan.

It will take me a bit to digest all that. and the shipping industry came to my mind while reading.
The world’s largest shippers are xinese, e.u., and wto.
Could this become a problem?

And McConnell’s in-laws made their fortune in import-export shipping to China.
$25M “wedding gift” to the lucky couple on their nuptials. This union also got the in-laws interest FREE loans from the CCP to purchase brand new ships to expand their empire.
Sundance – Thanks for another great summary/write-up. I especially appreciate the links at the end. There’s a lot to digest (non econ/finance guy that I am) and this is great. THANKS.
Adam: Dittos, Sundance. What an education we receive here!
One of my favorite Sundance posts!
I never tire reading it.
Bravo! !
I think the biggest surprise in all this was to learn Hunter actually had some kind of talent after all. Being able to shake down governments like that while loaded up on crack…not bad.
I’ve noticed over the years that crackheads and especially methheads are some of the most deceitful, manipulative and selfish people one can ever cross paths with…
I think those drugs may actually destroy a persons conscience….or it gives them permission to act without conscience…or something…
I don’t know what it is, but it’s real…..
C+I+G+(X-M): If the US closed her borders tomorrow, preventing all exports and imports, all immigration, emigration, and tourism, a “titanium curtain”, the result would be the largest economic boom in history.
Fortress America. Sounds a lot safer to me.
This article (it’s a re-print) is the first article I read here. It was the first time I saw a practical explanation of how lobbying/globalization/etc was hurting our country. I re-read it every time it is posted.
A clear and practical explanation of what some call “conspiracy theories” (although that number is dwindling by the day) is why I come here.
Thank you, SD.
its my first take…and I consider myself well informed.
obviously not in this deep department…
tks sundance…keep shining that light.
it matters.
God Bless AMERICA
SD posts a version of this every 3-4 months and it is still a good read EVERY time.
It truly is we the people vs the elites. How in the world do we get our fellow citizens to see and understand this. How does the accountant across the street with his Biden-Harris sign come to understand he is voting for and fostering his own demise and that he is unknowingly surrendering his children’s freedom and hope’s for a better life to those who not only do not care but are actively promoting his destruction?
Diogenese: That IS the question, isn’t it?
I have read this from sundance before – always learn something new.
Reading about lemons, i mentally substituted drugs, remembering POTUS new EO to lower drug prices. ha ha
Then i got to thinking about the law of unintended consequences – the WuFlu. Shut down the economy – not just here, but for nations worldwide. Shut down much ‘normal’ traffic (besides people) in and out.
Remembering sundance’s dissertation about how we had to scramble to change food delivery from restaurants and institutions to feed folks staying at home – do you think that put a dent in the multinationals re: food. ?? And that’s all separate from the farmer’s subsidy …
Yup – I suspect that each nation who shut down had to quickly adapt to feed its own people. More like you plant your own garden and share with your neighbors. Local groceries buying from local farmers. Easier to do in summer, but we go into winter with an altered system.
I have no basis in fact for these suppositions, but i can imagine it happening based on what is written here. As with voting, it only takes a small % to make a big dent.
I know there is much more to the story …
I haven’t even finished reading yet & already Game of Thrones & Dune come to mind ?

Dementia joe sold influence to foreign countries, and most likely, so did your senator (R) or (D). Lets keep reelecting them so they can put a stop to it
Job 15:2-35 King James Version
2 Should a wise man utter vain knowledge, and fill his belly with the east wind?
3 Should he reason with unprofitable talk? or with speeches wherewith he can do no good?
4 Yea, thou castest off fear, and restrainest prayer before God.
5 For thy mouth uttereth thine iniquity, and thou choosest the tongue of the crafty.
6 Thine own mouth condemneth thee, and not I: yea, thine own lips testify against thee.
7 Art thou the first man that was born? or wast thou made before the hills?
8 Hast thou heard the secret of God? and dost thou restrain wisdom to thyself?
9 What knowest thou, that we know not? what understandest thou, which is not in us?
10 With us are both the grayheaded and very aged men, much elder than thy father.
11 Are the consolations of God small with thee? is there any secret thing with thee?
12 Why doth thine heart carry thee away? and what do thy eyes wink at,
13 That thou turnest thy spirit against God, and lettest such words go out of thy mouth?
14 What is man, that he should be clean? and he which is born of a woman, that he should be righteous?
15 Behold, he putteth no trust in his saints; yea, the heavens are not clean in his sight.
16 How much more abominable and filthy is man, which drinketh iniquity like water?
17 I will shew thee, hear me; and that which I have seen I will declare;
18 Which wise men have told from their fathers, and have not hid it:
19 Unto whom alone the earth was given, and no stranger passed among them.
20 The wicked man travaileth with pain all his days, and the number of years is hidden to the oppressor.
21 A dreadful sound is in his ears: in prosperity the destroyer shall come upon him.
22 He believeth not that he shall return out of darkness, and he is waited for of the sword.
23 He wandereth abroad for bread, saying, Where is it? he knoweth that the day of darkness is ready at his hand.
24 Trouble and anguish shall make him afraid; they shall prevail against him, as a king ready to the battle.
25 For he stretcheth out his hand against God, and strengtheneth himself against the Almighty.
26 He runneth upon him, even on his neck, upon the thick bosses of his bucklers:
27 Because he covereth his face with his fatness, and maketh collops of fat on his flanks.
28 And he dwelleth in desolate cities, and in houses which no man inhabiteth, which are ready to become heaps.
29 He shall not be rich, neither shall his substance continue, neither shall he prolong the perfection thereof upon the earth.
30 He shall not depart out of darkness; the flame shall dry up his branches, and by the breath of his mouth shall he go away.
31 Let not him that is deceived trust in vanity: for vanity shall be his recompence.
32 It shall be accomplished before his time, and his branch shall not be green.
33 He shall shake off his unripe grape as the vine, and shall cast off his flower as the olive.
34 For the congregation of hypocrites shall be desolate, and fire shall consume the tabernacles of bribery.
35 They conceive mischief, and bring forth vanity, and their belly prepareth deceit.
For the last couple of decades I’ve wondered why and how we lost our manufacturing base. The standard economic pudits (at least the ones I was reading) never addressed this question. I also wondered how so many officeholders became rich on their relatively moderate salaries. Silly me, I never quite made the connection.
I’ve been reading this site for the last several years. The reasons for our national loss and our rich politicians have become increasingly, vividly clear as a result.
Many, many thanks to Sundance and team. And to our great President.
Ephesians 6:11-13
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
I love it when you talk about me, sundance.
Exfiltration of Wealth,
Good nick, encapsulates Sundance’s exquisite post perfectly. And I love that video of the President, it does not appear to me after that speech that he would be surprised by any of the incoming fire he would receive by entering the arena. And only by the Grace of God is he still standing.
All of Sundance’s excellent analysis of the economic system being rigged by globalist multinationals is indicative of the system being set up now to bring about the prophesied New World Order. It WILL come. And looks to be coming real soon.
Here is the precursor: GATT after WWII and then WTO and guess who was president in 1994? https://www.britannica.com/topic/World-Trade-Organization!!!
Sundance is VERY PRESCIENT!!! Tango Yankee!!!
“Understanding What Foreign Governments are Purchasing From The Bidens “
Their souls.
Where and how does the United Nations
fit in?
The DNC/UN platforms are identical.
So basically multi-nationals are depleting our jobs and dumbing down our society by devaluing skilled labor. That sounds insidious and demoralizing. Thank god Trump recognizes this–I hope he has Trumpians in training for administrations to come. Hopefully we dodged the bullet.
Eight More Years! Eight More Years! Eight More Years!
Hillary left DOS, sold access to USA, runs for President.
Biden left Executive, sold access to USA, runs for President.
Hmmm.
Exactly.
…and Hillary’s assistant downloads Hillary’s missing emails on her convicted sex-pervert husband’s lap top … LOADED WITH CRIMINAL INFORMATION … that is confiscated by NYCP & given to FBI.
… Biden’s crack-head son’s laptop … LOADED WITH CRIMINAL INFORMATION … is left at a repair shop and confiscated by Delaware FBI.
What are the odds this happens to 2 democRAT Presidential candidates?
And FBI is silent on both … hmmm?
Thank you Sundance??
Let’s forward this around Treepers.
It may help some see the bigger picture.
The press were willing to act like there was something sleazy about even American corporations ‘buying access” to the White House, as long as it involved the Trump WH.
If it’s the Chinese and Russians buying access to the Obama WH via Hunter Biden, they’re not remotely interested.

It was the Clintons and Obama/Biden crew.. It appears the Democrats were pretty well locked into the enriching of their bank accounts. Any more presidents/vps? How about those in Congress? Time to clean them all out! Curious—did SanFranNan lose it with Wolfe because she knew the emails were going to be exposed in the Post? Was it getting too close to Pacific Heights? Just wondering how you can be worth $114M based on being in Congress since 1987? Sure you make just under $200K in salary and at least $1.2M in allowances but that still doesn’t equal your net worth. Do you have a Ukrainian/Chinese deal too?
Two words: Global Facism.
Three more unsettling words, but very haute in Davos: The Great Reset.
Sundance, this is an OUTSTANDING post.
Does anyone else remember the pet food that poisoned with Melamin that China manufactured and sent over here back in 2007?
Beth, It goes back further, earlier in the 2000’s….there was a ‘problem’ with the toiletries that hospitals give patients at their admission…I forget what year, but people in a Republic of Panama hospital, near the Canal, in a relatively exclusive area of Panama City, were dying. It turned out to be the toothpaste, mouthwash and another item I cannot remember…common denominator: w”Hecho en China”. And don’t forget the baby formula that was causing problems…
To further see the level of isolation, note where Bolton is in the picture
Wondering how Humper’s stripper trial worked out with him telling the Judge he was broke. The Judge would have had to been on a trip to Mars for the last 3 years to fall for that one.
Or perhaps because American school teachers no longer care if every student learns the fundamentals of education well?
We need to note, once again, it was not the FBI or DOJ (who had custody of Hunters hard drive in Nov 2019) who provided this evidence of corruption.
It was a US CITIZEN.
And only after he had provided the info to the FBI and watched an Impeachment of his President and made many follow up attempts to no avail.
This evidence would have exonerated or cancelled the Impeachment process.
I hope the WH Counsel is investigating why this exculpatory evidence was not provided in the Impeachment process.
As I recall, this scheme was originally referred to as “off-shore pricing”. Send raw materials out, do the manufacturing with low wages and return the finished goods with a high price tag. As though it had been made in the USA. Sound familiar?
By the way, SD or Admin, I clicked on the links in the “Recent example: Salmonella Ritz Bits” section and in the next section, and they are all giving me 404 or Page Not Found messages. (The next graph with the “ever-increasing consolidation” link takes me to a Good Housekeeping page of chicken recipes.” Anyway, just an FYI that you might want to check the links…

Archer and lil’ Biden set up their associate as a fall guy (he’s in jail now). So he gave Peter Schweitzer the password to his gmail to retrieve the smoking gun emails in this article.

Hence the support of BLM by multinationals? They want rid the World of an independent—Trumpian—people…
Dear God, we need to pray for this man! All the forces of hell, with their myriads of minions in this world, are aligned against him. May Our Lord send legions upon legions of angels to surround and protect him!
Phew, that was exhaustive, exhausting, and enlightening all in one! If only more could or would take the time to read this…
Why do you think it’s so important for wall street to a swamp monster to be in the WH again.
