Promethean Action’s Susan Kokinda gives a good recap of Chinese Chairman Xi’s state visit, including the nuanced respect and policy alignment visible between President Trump and Chairman Xi.
In essence, the comments by Marco Rubio about putting USA sovereign policy ahead of prior USA multilateral global policy, are a baseline for Chairman Xi to pivot his own interpretations of Trump’s policy objective. With U.S policy focused on America’s interests and Beijing policy focused on China’s interests, there is no room for conflict, only terms.
This episode argues that media outrage over a White House “autopen” joke and criticism of Trump’s summit with Xi Jinping obscures a deeper shift: Trump is dismantling a 50-year geopolitical framework associated with Henry Kissinger. It contrasts Chatham House’s “China Rising, America in Decline?” panel and its Thucydides Trap framing—linked to Graham Allison—with Xi’s evolution from posing the trap as an open question to asserting it “can be overcome” after Trump’s UN speech and claimed actions in Iran, Venezuela, the Shield of America, and the Greenland Treaty, alongside a push for reindustrialization.
The script also highlights a UN Board of Peace session on Gaza focused on reconstruction led by Gazans and a new security structure involving Muslim-country troops, presenting it as ending “outside forces” control. It notes Rubio’s permanent dual role as Secretary of State and National Security Advisor and frames his stance as reversing Kissinger’s legacy. WATCH:

The world will be a better place with the undoing of Henry Kissinger’s legacy.
Marco Rubio may well be remembered as the Anti-Kissinger.
Everyone has faults. I thank Henry Kissinger for USA extraction from combat in Viet Nam and our actions in Laos and Cambodia. RIP for our 58,000+ military loss because of stupid presidents…bill
I disagree.
It has been a long time, but the story, as i recall is as follows:
Kissinger allowed the murder of 1,400 of our captured soldiers in Vietnam.
The USA has always prided itself on LEAVING NO SOLDIER BEHIND…
Kissinger did not believe that.
In the final weeks of the war, there were approximately 1,400 of our soldiers that were KNOWN to be in Viet Cong Captivity.
We had videos of them, and eye-witness reports that proved the Cong had our guys.
But, in the final negotiations, the Viet Cong would not agree to release them UNLESS THE USA MADE GREAT CONCESSIONS.
In the end, Kissinger refused to make the concessions, AND JUST ABITRARILY DECLARED THOSE SOLDIER AS KILLED IN ACTION.
He just WROTE THEM OFF.
They never came home.
To this day the Vietnamese refuse to say what they did with them.
Kissinger murdered our guys as surely as if he personally slit their throat.
And much worse than that. Kissinger talked to think tanks about vaccines and population control. He was the granddaddy of the intentional decline of the western world.
Period
It was Nixons carpet bombing of north Vietnam that brought them hat in hand to the Paris talks. Not Kissinger. Kissinger was a oligarch traitor that dreamed of population control..
But thanks for your concern.
Rubio may be being groomed for president.
Being promoted from ACTING National SecurityAdvisor to PERMANENT, is quite a complement from President Trump.
I don’t think Trump wants JD as president. He seems to use JD a a bull horn and Rubio get the brainy jobs..
Marco
… and is also fluent in Spanish .
Cuba / South America
anyone .
I do not think JD is what he tries to appear to be. I strongly suspect our President is fully aware of that, if he was not at first. No further comment from me on that.
Agree about Rubio being prepared. If that’s correct it’s really God’s doing. To President Trump’s enormous credit (like the few actually good Hebrew kings in the bible, almost all of whom sucked) he is unafraid and willing to obey.
Perhaps
Perhaps not
Time will tell
As of right this moment I am 75% for Rubio and 50% for JD. (Not that my opinion means very much.)
Regardless which one runs, I will vote for them. Both men, with the exception of Trump, are the best candidates we have seen in well, I can’t remember how long!
Well, that’s going to cause some globalists to run around like a chicken with its
head cut off. MSM too.
The “Auto-pen” frenzy is laughable. Its not as though Xi didn’t already know the Demented Fraud was an airhead puppet of the kenyan. Actually PDT’s reference to the appointed Fraud was kind compared to what most people would call him.
Xi already knew the Demented One was a bought and paid for airhead puppet of Xi.
Xi played Biden like a fiddle and laughed all along the way, while America suffered.
Xi has a sense of humor. He apparently got a kick out of this, which is good. PDJT is well known throughout Asia as being direct and blunt.
Xi knows Bidet was out of it.
Some suggest that one of the goals of the elderpuppet installation was to embarrass and shame the US in the eyes of the world, making it a laughingstock among other nations.
And that even putting Kamala up as a Presidential candidate reinforced this global view of the US.
As Xi said in 2020, “The East is rising and the West is declining”; all aspects including the above embarrassing puppets align with this.
And the manufactured plandemic with the insidious modRNA bioweapon injections coerced on the West only, backed with propaganda and censorship, confirm that this is in fact a managed decline, and China is partnered with the US government in this overall managed decline Program.
(China completed the virus for the US and released it, then held their air travel open for 2 weeks to distribute it worldwide. The US military rapidly produced and distributed the modRNA shots under cover of secrecy. The US government pushed unlawful shot mandates.)
Notice how RFK Jr.’s HHS continues the modRNA injections? There’s another clue to what is going on.

While I don’t like/agree with mtg, Tucker etc…I do agree with the issue. Problem is those podcasters hop on anything the Trump administration does just to divide us!
And some will summarily dismiss a concern simply because of who voices it or who joins those raising it.
This too is apparently used to manipulate public opinion, to keep the frogs in the pot while the water warms.
The intelligent people in the infamous agency based in zip code 22101 have had decades to refine this art.
‘Notice how RFK Jr.’s HHS continues the modRNA injections? There’s another clue to what is going on.’
You mean, continuing to degrade America’s health with shots as part of managing it’s decline?
Part of the US side of the 100 Year Plan elevating China to global dominance?

Susan consistently does a great job unpacking the history of the issues we are now trying to reset. I really appreciate her analysis.
Promethean Action.
Spot on regarding most important issues.
Eternal gratitude to Sundance for bringing Promethean Action to our awareness!
Yes. Absolutely!
She’s the easiest to listen to and she said the truth out loud; city of London are known as the globalist bankers!
Nice video.
I do hope everyone here can take the time to understand what has been happening under the surface when it comes to the debt crisis we are in. This video discusses the Bond markets and why it matters most.
I actually just happened to click on this guy yesterday 9/25/26, to check his knowledge and I’ll be honest, it would take me page after page after page in the comment section, to explain what this guy has done in 27 minutes. So I’m glad I clicked on this.
Enjoy and take the time to absorb this foreign language, especially to the novice viewers.
I will add 2 more things he doesn’t mention to help folks paint a picture. First, when this guy gets to “Inflate it away” maybe now you’ll understand Digital currency a whole lot better. And second, Who just decided to be the “House” along with buying the Japanese Yen? This becomes important going forward.
The Yen purchase has nothing to do with Japan’s people and everything to do with exporting deflation into our country, hurting our own country’s production costs.
Again, enjoy this, because he does a great job! But remember, the Central Bank does not print the money, that is through the Bureau of engraving and printing in the Treasury Department. The Fed “buys the debt” with “printed money.” Don’t mistake these two quotes because that’s where everyone gets it wrong.
Thanks, but I’m a little skeptical of the website. Here’s what I got when I asked Brave-AI about it.
quote …
It’s a textbook top-of-funnel play:
YouTube video — presents a real, complex problem (debt, inflation, “monetary reset”) with enough substance to build credibility, but deliberately withholds the “what to do about it” part.
“Free” seminar — the conversion step. You give them your phone number/email. The content is lighter than the YouTube video, not heavier.
Sales follow-up — calls and texts pushing the Goat Academy mentorship program (paid) and TradeVision.io (a stock-screening tool he co-founded).
WHen one of them stated Netayahu is paying Hamas to attack Israel that shot down a lot of credibility.
Some of what they say makes sense and some of it is false.
Thank you for investigating!
I have been watching Felix for a while. On the whole, he is a common sense guy to me. Ultimately, he is trying to make a buck as everyone should, but his videos are not long and boring, he makes some good points, and has a good wit.
Hmmm. Vote all democrats and FAKE Republicans out!
Kissinger was always a 2-team player.
Played with himself, and played with the anti-US team.
When Jesus said, “Father forgive them for they know not what they do,” He might have been talking about the American electorate, should the midterm elections give the Democrats control of Congress, allowing them to lay waste to the new American Camelot Trump has been building over the past 20 months!
In November, we will vote for our MAGA candidates because of our patriotism and understanding of the issues before us, while the woke Left will vote for Democrats, (or Democrat/Socialists), because of ignorance and/or greed.
My older sister is the quintessential woke voter, whose hatred of Trump, (he is Hitler!), MAGA, (an evil cult!), ICE, (spawn of the Devil!), and the entire Trump cabinet, (they should all be impeached), as well as conservatives on SCOTUS, (impeach them too!), burns so bright that she is beyond all reason. Like all woke voters, she feels no obligation to provide a shred of proof for the outrageous views she holds, like (if women ruled the world there would be no more wars!), or (there are so many deadbeat dads we should get rid of Father’s Day!) or (ICE is Trump’s personal SS who go about murdering American citizens!), and she has no fear of illegal aliens invading her home since she lives in a gated community.
I don’t pray often but I’ll say a prayer that voters like sis have trouble starting their cars on November 3rd!
“… since she lives in a gated community.”
That enables all the rest of it.
Tell her about the Dr that got stabbed to death last week in our “woke” city. He didn’t see it coming either..He left his window unlocked and a nut job got in and killed him.
Sorry to hear about your sister. I also have one like this. She has changed her FB banner to a plug for the DSA. We grew up going to the same schools where we were taught a great deal about critical thinking and the evils of Communism. Books like “Animal Farm”, “Atlas Shrugged”, and “Jonathan Livingston Seagull” were required reading at that time. Perhaps the significant factor in our different paths in life is that she became an atheist while I became a Christian? She was always a Democrat and was a staunch supporter of Hillary Clinton, despite all the controversy surrounding Clinton at the time of her presidential campaign. After a diet of Leftist MSM, by 2017 she had Advanced Stage TDS, spitting venom about “Hitler” and “Nazis.” It’s very sad, really. Yet there are more family members across the country who share her views than not. It has divided our family.
Many of us Baby Boomers, while growing up, wondered with disdain how the German people could have let the Nazis rise to power in the 1930’s. Now we know the frightening truth, because before our eyes we have witnessed the transformation of intelligent people we’ve known who have succumbed to the saturation of Leftist brainwashing and peer pressure. When I’ve tried to debate some of the liberals I’ve known for decades, some go red with rage when their “facts” are challenged with logic and primary source news, (which they refuse to look at). IMO one cannot reason with someone when they are this far gone. It would be interesting to learn more about what makes one vulnerable to brainwashing while another is not.
Your sister’s description fits my sister’s to such a degree that it can’t be coincidental. The Hitler/Nazi thing, the rage at having her facts challenged…and an equal helping of rage that my political views are different than hers.
She may still be a card-carrying member of ‘Adult Children of Alcoholics,” though my Dad was never an alcoholic. Dad’s inheritance has allowed her to live an upper-middle class life without working for a living…something for which I’ve never heard her express gratitude!
On my birthday last month she sent me a video titled, “ICE, Spawn of the Devil,” instead of a card. I’d chalk this up to her age, (she’s 90), but sis has been this way for decades.
My condolences to you, Just Sayin, for having a sister so much like mine!
Honest trade questions:
How would Chinese deals with the U.S. effect Chinese trade with Canada? A deal on coal has already been made, and it appears more deals are in discussion. How can any of this help Canada?
I’m thinking the more America trades with China, the worse it is for Canada? Mexico is expanding talks and looks to be on the verge of making a BIG trade deal. If true, how will that help Canada?
Bottom line, I can’t see any good for the Canadian people in Carney’s position.
Thoughts?
I see no positives for Canada except, perhaps, seeing the light at the end of the tunnel is a freight train coming at them at a faster speed. Maybe it will push Canada to make a sane deal with the US. Under no circumstances will China’s BYD EV’s be entering the US, whether through Mexico or Canada. I’m thinking Carney has hockey pucks lodged in his brain.
CCP in Canada
The main reason for a Military invasion by the USA is in the future for
CHINA-ADA .
IT IS INEVITABLE
I think it’s safe to assume that Trump, Xi, and Putin are working together to organize a mutually rewarding system that will tie the hands of subsequent power changes, the thing that has made us non-agreement-capable until now. I have no idea what that might be but assume it’s an economic web that will make it prohibitive for future leaders to undo without extreme cost.
Otherwise, suspicion and doubt will continue to dominate our interactions, global stability and predictability will be impossible, and the old banking interests will eventually regain control.
Listening to Susan Kokinda is always like drawing a big, deep breath of fresh air.
She not only gets the story straight and delivers a spot-on analysis, her delivery and timing are superb.
As a close follower of Chinese ex-pat Lei’s Real Talk channel I feel confident in saying those who buy unquestioningly into the idea that China is booming big time while the US is declining are simply not well informed or are simply not paying attention at all.
The big problem in China is the massive numbers of graduates holding top degrees. It’s an oversupply. It’s very similar to the MBA degree at its peak. Millions of MBA graduates took lesser jobs because of oversupply.
It’s not just a China issue either. Many Asian countries are graduating engineers, nurses and such and flooding the markets. Many do not get the jobs they expected. Add in to all of this the fast changing job outlook we have today. It’s important for students to choose a career path carefully and understand that they may have to adapt to the changing environment.
All the more reason to shutdown all the work visa pathways that would be so detrimental to Americans with those skills in the work place.
We do not need to be importing the bad policy results of other nations and suppressing the future prospects and development of our own workforce. Exceptional talent on a case by case basis, not for cheaper labor.
That would be a way to solve the problem indirectly but the universities including the ones in the US churn graduates out yearly with no regard, as long as they get their money.
Maybe American graduates would like to work overseas? Gain experience and learn about other cultures as well.
That’s also why universities love illegal aliens – – MONEY. They don’t care if they are legal or not just as long as they get their money. Plus, universities get to turn skulls full of mush into communist protestors that hate America.
The incentives for the universities would change significantly if they had a stake in student loans being repaid rather than laying it all on the taxpayer’s tab via Federal programs.
Make them have a stake in the success of their graduates to get some of the money back. Ivy League institutions alone are sitting on many billions in endowments. They can afford to invest some of their own money into lending to prospective students to say nothing of all the other universities across the USA.
American graduates working overseas is a policy question for other nation’s governments. Some will allow exchanges of a limited number as part of a cultural exchange. Others might for certain economic reasons. But that takes dialog from national leaders to find common ground for a win/win deal.
The incentives for the universities would change significantly if they had a stake in student loans being repaid rather than laying it all on the taxpayer’s tab via Federal programs.
The first thing that will happen is no University will offer any degree with “studies” in the description. A degree has to have something substantial behind it or Starbucks is the destination with local Governments building “employee housing” with Taxpayer dollars to support the stupid Universities (again).
Excellent point.
If AI is going to make a certain number of jobs redundant… we Certainly have No Need for ‘geniuses’ from China… India… and who knows where.
American citizens can fill the jobs available.
The only guarantee with AI development is that it will be disruptive to what was.
Some jobs will cease to exist in the near future because of it. Others will change or adapt to it, and there will be yet other jobs created as a consequence of it.
I could not tell you proportions of which, only that some combination will result as had with prior industrial revolutions.
And that is key. Not knowing which jobs will go away. That’s the unknown right now. Then there is the prospect of new jobs being created that we don’t know about yet.
Yes, it’s called ‘Creative Destruction’ a name given by Joseph Schumpeter
Look up what Elon Musk said about AI and jobs..if you work a job and move something AI won’t take your job..
The demand jobs are not going to those engineers. The world needs Plumbers, electricians, carpenters, metal workers, framers,appliance repairs, masons, farmers, hydrologist, truckers, landscapers, child care specialist, police and fire personnel.
Some of those jobs are likely not to survive in the next 20 years. Masons for example. Others are changing. Plumbers run PEX lines and connections that go together quickly unlike copper. Truck driving may be another job gone if autonomous trucks take over.
There are no solutions, only trade-offs.
PEX is materially cheaper upfront being made of plastic and quicker to install. Copper is highly recyclable, has antimicrobial properties and can last a century in some applications. Longevity of PEX comparatively is undetermined on that scale. Successful plumbers will be able to do both in order to satisfy the greatest numbers of customers.
Autonomous driving is not going to replace human drivers either. It will supplement it. There will be circumstances where the risk profiles will favor a human driver or likewise a robot. Human drivers can made decisions near instantaneously in response to immediate and unpredictable conditions. Robots can operate reliably in conditions where suffering fatigue is not an option.
One will also need Masons for laying actual brickwork over building a brick fasade on a building. Robots would not improvise well when one-off alterations need to be made in a building plan.
Yes, that’s a big problem there, alright. It’s led to the “lying flat” culture, which you’ve probably heard of.
And China has other big issues looming over it, one of which is in their banking system, which is in bad shape. People are becoming less and less able to access or move their money, are limited to what they can withdraw, and in a growing number of cases, their money is simply disappearing.
There’s serious tension between Xi and the military, as well. The party is reportedly not pleased.
Lots of unrest simmering there.
Tang Ping.
Yep I’ve seen it. Young people with no direction or initiative. Social media is not helping but some countries are already putting time limits on access.
It appears as though China is about one dam failure from total disaster and collapse.
Have you heard anything about the full military munitions/equipment inventory/audit they did two or three years ago? The results were abysmal.
It explains why the Venezuelans’ detection and defense system failed so badly and why the IRGC got so smoked so quickly.
I have not kept up because the news is all over the place on this. It does seem that their military structure is not the best. The dam failure news is fake as far as I can tell. A lot of dams over here overtop due to heavy rains. Flooding is a common occurrence.
The infrastructure is getting better over time but a lot of old stuff remains.
Are you familiar with Lei’s work?
I occasionally post links to her reports here.
It takes time to keep up, but we make the time to watch, usually during or just after supper three times a week because it’s not western media and she’s proven to be very insightful.
She verifies her sources and has done some really good interviews.
I have watched her on occasion. She is something like the Chinese Promethian.
With all this Trump-Xi-Putin interaction going on I think the winds of change are in the air. We shall see in the fullness of time.
Oh good. I’m glad you know who she is. I like your description of her. It’s very appropriate, I think.
Yes, it seems very much like we’re feeling the winds of change with China. Much needed change, I believe.
Good talking with you. Thanks for your replies.
Thank you for the thoughtful discussion.
My pleasure.
My initial reply below seems a little blunt sounding…I’m doing two things at once and I hope I don’t sound abrupt. No offense meant.
If you’re interested in hearing more about what they’re discovering about the newer dams in China I’ll be glad to give you a heads up and post the link to the next video in which she discusses them. Or if I run across the one she did a few months back if I find it.
No worries.
Construction in Asia with a few exceptions like Japan is full of fraud. Skimping on cement and steel bars and having no code inspection is part of it.
When I built here I kept a close eye on the process. So far I have fared well. In 2013 after a major earthquake hit I saw modern houses toppled over like blocks. Those expats were not aware of what was going on during the construction.
If you’re living in Asia then you know whereof you speak.
We’re in the building trade and have seen first hand what the lack of rebar, cement and codes can do. We helped rebuild on Kauai after Iniki, for example, and have family in the caribbean. Folks in the US take a lot for granted.
Some of the things Lei has described are nothing short of chilling.
Or…they’re being gaslit. Fake news organizations are global. Especially in the Yuck and Eww.
lol….that’s a good one. The Yuck and Eww. Spot on.
And those two are at the pinnacle of the fake news pile.

GAZA GOVERNANCE PLAN NOT READY AS HAMAS REMAINS ARMED
Board of Peace representative Nickolay Mladenov says Gaza’s proposed Palestinian governance committee cannot take control yet, warning that “within a week, they will be eaten up alive by the difficulties they will face.” Hamas remains armed, a new Palestinian police force is still being trained, and Mladenov says donors won’t fund reconstruction without stability and confidence that another war isn’t imminent.

President Trump has appointed Secretary of State Marco Rubio as his full-time national security adviser,
after months of serving in the role in an acting capacity. Making Rubio permanent happened on on September 22, 2026.
Rubio is now the first person to serve as both the Secretary of State and national security adviser since Henry Kissinger,
who did the same between 1973 and 1975 for both the Nixon and Ford administrations.
Rubio is seeing the belly of the beast – London. Expect to hear and see more of the dismantling Of Chatham House and the rest of it.
It would not surprise me if Trump endorsed Rubio as his replacement over JD Vance. With all the roes Rubio has had and still doing,
it’s like seeing The Apprentice, political style in action. Executive management 101.
Idc what China claims, they’re in it for the long game! SCOTUS screwed us on Natural Born citizenship and Canada will be the Northern gateway for more shite coming through our border. We need an invincible Northern border now! NY is on Canadas side and has provided an easy gateway for all illegals, drug trafficking and freebies. Take our govt to the cleaners!
I really enjoyed this update, but if you believe that the bible is the Word of God, the situation in Gaza won’t end as envisioned by the board of peace (despite their good intentions). Exactly how this will come about none of us can say, and I’m certainly not smart enough to speculate, just be aware that it will:
https://classic.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Zephaniah%202:4-7&version=NIV
Philistia
4 Gaza will be abandoned
and Ashkelon left in ruins.
At midday Ashdod will be emptied
and Ekron uprooted.
5 Woe to you who live by the sea,
you Kerethite people;
the word of the Lord is against you,
Canaan, land of the Philistines.
He says, “I will destroy you,
and none will be left.”
6 The land by the sea will become pastures
having wells for shepherds
and pens for flocks.
7 That land will belong
to the remnant of the people of Judah;
there they will find pasture.
In the evening they will lie down
in the houses of Ashkelon.
The Lord their God will care for them;
he will restore their fortunes
First off…..the hypocrisy of everyone beating up Trump for the Biden autopen discussion is stupid…….there is NO DEFENDING Biden on that garbage….and….it wasn’t even Biden anyway…it was an autopen…..not a human!
Now….there is some question about Biden being human….but I don’t hear anyone talking about that….including the media.
But they will defend and cover for their beloved traitors till the day they die!
I thought that Trump with Xi over the autopen thing was hilarious…..and it was good to see the two laughing together…..yes and the behest of Biden!
THAT’S…..maybe what they didn’t like either….that Biden was the butt of the joke…..and this was THEIR guy right up until he wasn’t.
As for Henry Kissinger…….probably one of the first rats in our government…..and he said so himself when he said that he kept Britain more informed than his own administration!
Isn’t that the definition of a traitor!
And…..why don’t we deal with traitors the way we used to…….nothing would make me more happy than to see those old days come back and a certain regime and his comrades get charged with exactly that…..TREASON!
Gitmo……nationally televised tribunals and justice for Obama, Clinton, Brennan, Clapper, and all the other rot from that regime including the creepy old guy that likes sniffing babies and women’s hair….Mr Autopen himself!
MAGA!
