I also expect the Great Reset unleashes chaotic forces no one can control. Honestly, it’s already done so. Look around the headlines today and you can see all the strings pulled by Klaus Schwab and the World Economic Forum but you can also see the uncontrolled events which reverberate as consequences.

Contrary to the historically fraudulent and inflammatory premise of the New York Times “1619 Project,” the United States was not “founded” on slavery nor is slavery the centerpiece of American history.

Why the Chinese Communist Party is stronger than ever 100 years after its creation Under Xi Jinping, the party appears unassailable and increasingly hostile to the West.
