Why is Trump meeting with President Xi, after constantly demonizing China, waging a trade war, and scapegoating it?
Because Trump's trade war and tariffs backfired, and US corporations desperately want access to the massive Chinese market.
The White House invited the following

Saudi Arabia has clearly chosen a side:
Riyadh withdrew from mBridge, a project connecting central banks with blockchain technology in order to avoid the dollar and potential US sanctions.
Saudi also refused to accept the invitation to join BRICS.
Meanwhile, CNN reported that h

The US empire is in its decadent fascistic phase where the head of the newly named Department of War openly cites the Bible and declares that the US military is waging a holy war against "communists" and "Islamists".

The US government has taken $11 billion of Venezuela's oil revenue since January. Only $3.5 billion has gone to Venezuela. $7.5 billion is unaccounted for.
Good summary of the imperial pillage here:
The US took Venezuela's "primary revenue stream at gunpoint, routed it through a

If this is not an empire, nothing is.
The US military literally says it must be able to attack anyone, anywhere on Earth, at any time.
It's a globe-spanning imperial war machine.
Imagine how the US would feel if China vowed to develop the capacity to "strike anywhere on the

Scott Bessent sat in front of Congress on Tuesday and either lied or is clueless about how to do his real job. There is no third option. But based on Bessent's testimony and what I found, it looks like we could be stealing ~$11 billion from Venezuela.

Western so-called "democracies" are censoring independent media outlets by debanking them.
If you publish journalism exposing the crimes of Western oligarch-controlled regimes, they tell banks to freeze your accounts to prevent you from operating.
This is blatant censorship.

Many people have praised Hunter Biden, because he has rightfully criticized Trump's extreme corruption (although he refuses to criticize his war criminal father for supporting a genocide).
But now he is launching his own shady meme coin, like Trump.
No principles, just greed.

It must be emphasized how insane this is:
Trump is openly threatening to colonize and annex Mexico, Canada, Greenland, Cuba, and several other Caribbean countries.
This is not just an empty threat. He's already at war with Iran.
The fascistic US empire is a mad dog with rabies.

@BenjaminNorton How exactly does a “right to water” work if nobody wants to produce, purify, transport, or maintain the infrastructure for it? Either no water appears, or someone is compelled to provide it.
That isn’t a right; it’s an entitlement to someone else’s labor.

@BenjaminNorton There’s no doubt in my mind that the same court would determine that data centers *do* have the right to clean water.

The US is a barbaric capitalist dystopia.
A court just ruled that people do NOT have a right to clean water, or to truthful information from the government.
This came after the city of Jackson, Mississippi misled residents into drinking what it knew was lead-contaminated water.

The new right-wing, oligarch-backed, US puppet president of Costa Rica, Laura Fernández, is giving the US military the green light to intervene in her country.
Costa Rica has no armed forces of its own, so it is becoming a de facto US colony. https://t.co/BIXXO8JcA0

@BenjaminNorton The US infrastructure is breaking down fast that includes the electric grid and water filtration. Both of which data centers need. Add to it the 7 year or so transformer backlog which also affects offline energy generation. US AI is a pipe dream without electrici

@BenjaminNorton I think it would be more accurate to say that data center construction is driving up prices because the USA is unable to build new infrastructure or even maintain old infrastructure to meet needs because it's a decrepit rentier empire.

Firstly, there is no evidence that this is a Chinese op -- but this narrative helps Silicon Valley oligarchs demonize US protesters and scapegoat China.
Secondly, it's an objective fact that US "AI data centers are driving up household electricity prices and straining the grid".
