Host Charlie Robinson analyzes the Trump administration's U.S. Department of State Strategic Plan 2026-2030, breaking down six strategic goals focused on reasserting American sovereignty, Western Hemisphere dominance, Indo-Pacific competition with China, European alliance rebalancing, economic/technological leadership, and redirecting foreign aid toward U.S. interests. Robinson critiques the plan as aspirational theater while acknowledging some objectives align with legitimate American interests, though he argues Israel's influence and historical patterns of imperialism will prevent genuine implementation.
Insights
- The Trump administration's strategic plan reveals internal tensions within U.S. power structures—opposition to UN Agenda 2030 and WHO suggests fractures between Trump's faction and the Rockefeller/globalist establishment, though both serve different imperial interests
- Foreign aid and development financing function as debt-slavery mechanisms (per Confessions of an Economic Hitman model) where countries are loaned fiat currency at interest, then coerced into favorable UN votes and policy alignment when they default
- U.S. re-industrialization plans implicitly signal preparation for conflict with China—securing supply chains, critical minerals, and pharmaceutical independence are prerequisites for sustained military confrontation, not peacetime economics
- The plan's rhetoric of 'America First' contradicts its execution: Israel's interests consistently override stated American priorities, and the Western Hemisphere strategy aims to replace Chinese debt-trap dependency with American corporate control, not genuine sovereignty
- NATO's relevance depends entirely on U.S. participation; without America, European defense capabilities are negligible, making Trump's demand for 5% GDP defense spending a precondition for potential U.S. withdrawal and NATO dissolution
Trends
Decoupling from China through supply chain regionalization and critical mineral sourcing from Western Hemisphere (Venezuela, Nigeria, Guyana)Shift from traditional humanitarian foreign aid to transactional development financing tied explicitly to military cooperation, UN voting alignment, and resource accessRe-industrialization of U.S. manufacturing as geopolitical strategy rather than economic policy—semiconductors, pharmaceuticals, rare earth refinement being onshored to reduce wartime vulnerabilitiesNATO transformation from collective defense alliance to U.S.-funded burden-sharing mechanism; potential dissolution if European members don't meet 5% defense spending targetsWeaponization of tariffs and trade policy as primary diplomatic tool—40% punitive tariffs on non-compliant Western Hemisphere nations replacing traditional sanctionsTechnology export controls and IP protection becoming central to great-power competition; U.S. attempting to monopolize AI, semiconductors, and quantum computing accessWestern Hemisphere resource consolidation strategy—controlling Panama Canal, Venezuelan oil, Nigerian crude, and critical minerals to reduce dependence on Asian supply chainsSelective multilateralism: opposing UN Agenda 2030 and WHO while maintaining Israel-centric foreign policy, revealing factional competition within globalist structuresDefense industrial base expansion as economic stimulus—allies pressured to purchase U.S. weapons systems and military technology to 'revitalize' American manufacturingCurrency manipulation concerns despite U.S. dollar hegemony—implicit acknowledgment that petrodollar dominance is eroding and requires active policy intervention to maintain

It's all about the macro productions. What does the goddamn line say, Tony? Please do not use gendered language. Then what? I'll be arrested, put in airport jail? Look, you're going completely sideways, man. It's a big club, and you ain't in it. How dare you? Mr. Speaker, the President of the United States! I'm Chris Hanson with Dave on NBC. Jack Marius, Tac Theratrix. Hi, I'm Spartacus. Jackson, Sacramento, he, him. Steven Seagal. Sex Offender Guard. I'm Keith Morrison. This is Moe Miles. Good to be. I'm Rick James, bitch. Sorting through the lies. The hijacker's passport was found blocks from the World Trade Center crash site, if you can believe that. We cannot track $2.3 trillion in transactions. And uncovering the centuries-long plan for world domination. Learning about Cuba, having some food. Let's talk about Chinese, please. Have you ever been in a Turkish prison? I have a predator. Swingled in Portland. I have sent six of my Libyan missiles to blow up the serious hardware department. I think it would be more fun than jumping off a cliff with two German bisexuals. Oh, you English are so superior, aren't you? Thank you, comrades. And now, macroaggressions. That's what assholes call it. With your host. Buddy, I don't know who you are, but you're about to get chlamydia. Charlie Robinson. Hey, Whitey, where's your hat? I wouldn't drop the blame on Charlie and say it's all Charlie's fault. He was a retard. I get some goddamn diuretic. Welcome to Macroaggressions. I'm your host, Charlie Robinson.

C60 Power has been with me from the very beginning. My cats wake me up at 5 o'clock in the morning every morning to get access to the good stuff. If you are interested in improving your energy, if you know a little bit of something about what the guys over there at C60 Power were doing, Buckminster Fuller theorized about the carbon-60 molecule back in the 60s. The team discovered it in the 80s. They won the Nobel Prize for it. It's the most powerful antioxidant known to man. It's hundreds of times more powerful than anything else out there. It is amazing. It's a spherical soccer ball type structure, and it's a free radical sponge. It goes through your body, finding free radicals, fixing them and resetting itself, does it over and over again. The time I had Christian Yordinev on, we went over the results of one of the tests I took with him. My DNA damage score was so low, it didn't even have a number associated with it. That's from C60 Power. So if you're interested, if you're looking for a little bit more energy or you have aging pets or, hell, you're aging yourself and you're interested, go to shopc60.com and use the discount code MACRO to save yourself a little bit of money. And if you're interested, go over and talk to our friends at Chemical Free Body as well, Tim James and the crew over there. They've been doing it since I started over here. They've been with me. Green 85 is fantastic. I drink it every day. If you haven't done the detox in a box, you should check that out. That will really lean you out. It's about a 90-day program. If you want something shorter, the parasite cleanse will get rid of all the critters that are in you. Go to chemicalfreebody.com forward slash macro. Check it out for yourself. Tim, James, and the crew, they're crazy about keeping chemicals out of their products. They do a great job of it. Go to chemicalfreebody.com forward slash macro. Check it out. See for yourself. All right, well, I was checking out what the Trump administration has planned for the second half of this decade, and it's not great. It's what they're planning for the Western Hemisphere. They have big ideas. Big ideas for little Marco Rubio. It's a weird cast of characters. It looks kind of like the crew from the Munsters who have occupied the Oval Office. and uh and they have ideas they have ideas for reimagining the way the american empire deals with uh with everyone else i got not everything in this uh document that they put forward is is bad right frankly there's a couple things on here that we need to get into that that probably wouldn't be the worst thing for the american empire to incorporate in so it's something called the U.S. Department of State Strategic Plan 2026 to 2030. It's a document that they put forward. I read it so that you don't have to. You're welcome. And you start thinking, boy, I mean, it can't get any worse than the first half of this decade, right? We had COVID. We had all the insanities of like DEI and all that stuff. We had to go one direction down grocery store aisles and certainly not the wrong direction down there, you know, all that. So if that was the first half of decade i'm not exactly looking forward to the second half i keep thinking can't be worse right right i guess we'll see but um but uh donald trump and marco rubio are the ones that are in charge of this so i don't i don't hold out hope that it's going to be awesome i do want to go over a little bit what the overview is and what the the plan is and what i'll do is this it's we'll go through the six goals they have six goals for this they have gold they can have as many goals as they want right if you have a 10-step plan to world domination but if the if they can't figure out step one step two then it doesn't really matter so they have six goals we'll talk about them we'll get into goals and objectives right this is what we're going to do this is what we we uh there's our plan this is how we're going to do it this is how we're going to destroy the world in order to accomplish these goals they don't put that in there sort of the underlying theme of course but they say this strategic plan outlines an american first foreign policy agenda emphasizing national sovereignty you know unless you're venezuela or greenland then you're fucked but for everybody else it's national sovereignty domestic renewal and pragmatic diplomacy so what they say is that the u.s national interests are going to take priority from 2026 onward, you know, you know, and unless it's Israel's priority, then that will take priority because Israel is in charge of this whole thing. And when you if you don't think so, Donald Trump and Marco Rubio, the people who are behind this, this document are 100 percent owned by Israel. so they can talk about how this is the goal number one is u.s national sovereignty but it's all talk because if we were actually getting down to the nuts and bolts of this you would you would recognize that the u.s is no longer sovereign it's been compromised it's been taken over by a parasite entity and they go on to talk about how america first means every policy will be evaluated by direct benefits to u.s interests again america first should be america first right it should be direct benefits to u.s interests we've been talking about america first for a while but i I don't think anybody who's paying attention actually thinks that that's what's going on, especially here in America. We see what is happening. America. America first. America last. Israel first. And followed closely behind by every undocumented Tom, Dick, and Javier who's walked here from French Guiana. You know what I mean? Like this is most definitely not America first. It's everybody else first. But they're going to change that. That's what they say. They can say a lot, and they do. So let's talk about goals. We'll start with goal number one, U.S. national sovereignty. They're talking about this means a reassertion of national control over borders, laws, and international commitments. That's great. We're going to have national control over our borders? What a novel concept. But it's been a while. To be clear, it's been a while since we've had this. This will be revolutionary. If we were actually able to reassert national control over the borders and the laws in America, it would be unrecognizable. But they say they're going to do it, guys, so of course they're going to do it. Just go hold your breath. Trust the plan. Go wait in the corner. It's all coming. Patriots are in control. They're talking about what they want to do is they want to protect citizens' rights from foreign interference and reform engagement with international organizations. Okay, so I don't – what does that mean really? What they say is, okay, we're going to end the era of mass migration through strict visa issuance. Interesting. it we're going to treat immigration as a national security decision you i'm sorry you mean it wasn't some of this is is kind of like head scratching you go we're going to start taking immigration seriously it's like you start you're going to start doing it what about all the other people who thought you were taking it seriously for like i don't know the last 250 years well well we were We're just practicing. Now we're going to take it seriously, guys. We want to negotiate with foreign governments about repatriation of foreigners. Okay, we've got a bunch of your people here from Guatemala. Would you like them back? No. They're like, no, it's fine. We emptied our insane assailants and sent them to you. No, we don't want them back. we want to prevent visa holders from uh public support prevent visa holders from public support they don't want they don't want you to come here on a visa and and and during the visa interview process they say well what would you like to do in the united states while you're here what is the the purpose of your visit and the reason for this visa um you're not supposed to say i'm coming here because I heard they're giving away free stuff. That's not the answer that they want. So they want to prevent the visa holders from getting free public support. I just, again, I wonder, but this wasn't an idea that you had decades ago? This is the first time it's crossing your mind. You know what we should do with all these people that are coming across the border? We should prevent them from getting free welfare and stuff like that. Holy shit, you think so? That's amazing. You guys should put that into a document And then some dipshit will have to do a podcast episode about it. It would be amazing. Foreign assistance money as – they're talking about using foreign assistance money as leverage for immigration cooperation. What a novel idea. We've got all of these people from the Democratic Republic of Chad, right? And so – and maybe before we send the check to the Democratic Republic of Chad for $80 bazillion or whatever we give them every year, why don't we say to them, hey, you know that money that we normally give you? You got to come – we got to give you all your people back that you smuggled into our country. We're going to send them back. And, by the way, until we get a handle on that, we're not going to give you the money that we just give you for existing. So use foreign assistance money as leverage for international cooperation. I'd have never thought of that. That's a good idea. Put a gold star next to that one, guys. Once you have secured the borders, then protect Americans' rights from foreign interference. Unless it's Israel. They can be interfered with. They can interfere with us all they want. So they go, oh, well, what do we do? We'll counter foreign laws and regulations that restrict Americans' free speech and religious liberties unless they're Christians. I added that last part, unless you're Christians, but that's what's going on. So it's like all of you people in Europe who are doing the wrong thing with your immigration, stop that. and stop it with the anti-free speech stuff, all that Section 230 and all the internet stuff that you guys are going on and on about Elon Musk. Stop that and how you're clamping down on religious liberties. Stop that, right? Unless you're murdering Christians, then it's totally fine. Oppose global campaigns against hate speech or disinformation that limits the rights of Americans. There is no such thing as hate speech. It's just speech that you hate. It's not a legal definition. It doesn't carry any weight. So global campaigns against hate speech and disinformation. Let me guess. The ADL and Southern Poverty Law Center are behind that. They want you to go on these campaigns against hate speech. What are they saying? Are they saying hateful things? No, they're just saying things that you would hate to hear about what you guys are doing. So they go on to say investigate foreign influence operations. foreign investigate foreign influence offer i can save you the trouble why don't you lock up the guys at jonathan greenblatt at the adl to get mark potak from the southern poverty law center once you put those guys in handcuffs and start there this isn't hard block foreign acquisition of assets important to national security again why are there foreign acquisitions of assets that are important in national security why are you allowing the chinese to buy farmland inside america why we need the money are we selling we're selling the farms now this sounds like a bad idea goal one objective three selective multilateral engagement they say fund international organizations only when they benefit u.s interests well that's common sense right you would think um here's something that i actually agree with these lunatics on oppose the un's agenda 2030 and the 17 sustainable development goals good good we need to stop that 100 this is what's interesting with with you know there's a tendency to think that like this new world order group is a homogenous that they all want one thing or it's this group versus nobody else right just it's just one group versus the people. It's really not the case. There are factions fighting. The Trump group does not have much love for the United Nations, which is fine. I mean, they shouldn't, of course, but it is a bit surprising because it's been hard to find any of this divergence away from that. That's part of the reason why the establishment hates Trump so much, because that United Nations, rockefeller group has been in charge for a long time and when you talk about opposing the un's agenda 2030 and the the 17 sdgs you are right for opposing that this this absolutely should happen but it catches you off guard because you you never really hear american presidents criticizing the united nations you always just hear them going along with whatever they have to say well that's because it's a rockefeller organization so he's right you know i mean i don't want to you know i'll give trump credit where credit is due it's he'll get very little of it from me but but stepping up and saying that you need to oppose uh the united nations really at every level they they mentioned this with agenda 2030 and and the 17 sdgs but it's um you know it's more than just that it's also Trump has been very critical about the World Health Organization as well. Of course, that is a part of the Rockefeller network, and it's in the United Nations umbrella. And once again, right for pushing the World Health Organization out. They are a criminal enterprise. He goes on to say that they want to block resolutions undermining the U.S. or their allies' interests. What resolutions would that be? Would it be like resolutions where you found like the head of your favorite country is guilty of being a war criminal in the international criminal court? Do you mean that? Because there's resolutions out there all over the place that are criticizing some of America's allies, but it's usually just that one ally in the Middle East, the one that's supposed to be our best friend. you i bet they don't i bet see part of the reason why trump is is so pro-israel the united nations for all their flaws has a huge problem with israel you know like you'll see like every single country will vote one way except for the two it'll be the u.s and israel and some of these like satellite nations in the micronesia like in the in the south pacific that are like vanuatu or some shithole like that that's just been totally captured they'll vote in favor of israel as well but but everyone else will vote against it and so i'm sure trump sees that and they go oh we got to get rid of this united nations i mean they the ones that are constantly talking about how israel doing the wrong thing can have that Well in this particular case it possible that the United Nations could be a globalist terrorist organization hell on destroying the world and also be correct in their assessment of Israel So they also talk about winding down costly peacekeeping missions. Yeah, you think so? Like NATO? We could do that. We'll get into that a little bit more. Goal two, Western Hemisphere and the Don Roe Doctrine. The core theme, reasserting U.S. dominance in the Americas by expelling foreign adversaries, strengthening regional partnerships, and eliminating narco-terrorist organizations. That last part about the eliminating narco-terrorist organizations, you guys know that's not going to happen, right? The American empire is never going to get serious about removing the narco-terrorist organizations from the world because we are the narco-terrorist organizations around the world. The Central Intelligence Agency, the CIA, is the largest drug-running operation on the planet. They have financed their operations for decades doing things like this in Southeast Asia and Afghanistan. Afghanistan, this is a well-known thing. The idea that the Trump administration is going to come in and remove the narco-terrorist organizations is either delusional thinking or it's just for soundbite because it's not actually going to happen. Part of the reason is that the president who came before you, George H.W. Bush and Bill Clinton, were running that organization. They will not allow this to go away. The ghost of George H.W. Bush will haunt Donald Trump. And of course, Bill Clinton may be a walking corpse these days, but that guy didn't get to where he is by not knowing what's going on or falling off a turnip truck. That guy was running cocaine into the United States in plane loads full. So there's not going to be an end to the narco-terrorist organizations. There will only be an end to the narco-terrorist organizations who aren't fully under the thumb of the CIA. So I can see that happening. They go on to say prevent extra-hemispheric powers, especially China, from establishing military bases or economic control. Yeah, that's our job. School of the Americas, you might be familiar with that. Operation Condor. Or we took control of South America in the early 70s, or at least we didn't want the commies to. You get what you get there. So the idea of establishing military bases or economic control, this is not revolutionary. This is not a new idea. This is something that's been going on for a long time. And by the way, we do have military bases there. Recovers control of strategic choke points such as the Panama Canal. Yes, this is a no-brainer. The problem is America didn't go in and take control of the Panama Canal away from the Chinese and give it to the Americans. They gave it to BlackRock. So it's not like America is in control of the Panama Canal anymore. No. BlackRock is, and that group is sort of a mishmash of Israel and America, but it's not America. All right. So they didn't solve the problem by taking away the Panama Canal from the Chinese and giving it to the Americans. They changed the problem. He goes on to talk about the need to sever foreign debt traps and predatory loans with neighbors. Well, we would know about that. That is from Confessions of an Economic Hitman by John Perkins. He talked about this. In fact, John and I have talked about the third edition of his book where they mentioned the Chinese economic hitman moving into South America. We talked about that on this show. So it's not that the American empire is some source of good who's coming to wave a magic wand and remove these debt traps from these poor third world countries that have been enslaved with predatory loans by groups like the Chinese. No, no. They're going to just replace them with their own predatory loans brought to you by the World Bank. Right. Maybe not the World Bank in this case because the World Bank is part of the United Nations Rockefeller Group. So there may be a different bank in its place, but that's the point is that it's not that America wants to free South America from the shackles of this debt slavery. It's that they want to replace them with their own chains, and that's what they'll do. They talk about blocking adversaries from controlling critical infrastructure via state-linked private entities. When I hear state-linked private entities, my mind goes to fascism because that's what it is. It's also pretty much like what you get in The End of Empire with the Soviet Union. What did you have, state-linked private entities that were controlling certain regions? You even take the copper industry or the nickel industry or Robin Abramoff comes in, and next thing you know, he's dealing with aluminum and the tin. And so you go, okay. So you start divvying up these things. So it's not so much that they're state-controlled. It's not the United States Empire. It's not the Russian government, or in this case, it's not the Venezuelan government. But it's state-linked private entities. So it's the businesses that are connected to the state. And if you're a business who is connected to the state, that's fascism. The blending of big business with the state for the benefit of the state is the definition of fascism. Same thing, but with the benefit being towards the corporations, that's corporatism. And so in this case, Trump is looking at this as a business opportunity too. He's looking at this as saying we want to control critical infrastructure via state-linked private entities. Now, we can't just go in there, plant an American flag and take all your cobalt, though we would want to. We can't do that. We can't go into Venezuela and say America is going to take over Venezuela, but we can put Chevron in there or Chevron is already there. But you can continue to allow these companies. So we're getting back. We're getting into the Smedley-Butler wars racket mentality, right? And, of course, he would have known talking about this stuff, United Fruit, prime example. It's not a war of ideology. It's a war to allow us to sell our bananas in your supermarkets. You understand? This is nothing – you may be dismissive of this and think, oh, they would never do that. No, this is how it is done. The American empire, the war machine is used at the behest of – for banks and multinational corporations that need this to happen. They need South America to be a better place for them to run their businesses. Well, you send in the American wrecking ball to take out your – anybody that opposes you. Moving on to this objective two, goal two, strengthen regional partnerships. They talk about providing commercial and security alternatives to China. China was here. China was doing a lot for South America, but China's gone now. We've got to get rid of them. So we're going to have to provide some options instead of that, right? So you used to sell your oil to – your Venezuelan oil to China, but we can't have that anymore. So we have to take Maduro out of power. We, we, the American empire, not me, have to take Maduro out, and then all of a sudden we will then prioritize trade deals within our Western Hemisphere. We'll make sure that we're providing security and commercial alternatives to China. The one thing was Venezuela used to sell all your oil to China. We would like – you would like to do that still, but you didn't recognize Israel. Now, now that Maduro is gone, what does Venezuela do? Venezuela does not sell oil to China anymore, and they don't sell oil to Cuba any longer. We told them they're not allowed to. And guess what they do? They recognize Israel, so they sell oil to Israel now. Replacing China with Israel is not in that country's best interest, I assure you. But it's happening anyway. So they're going to prioritize trade deals within the Western Hemisphere, okay? and they're going to onshore key industries to neighboring countries with comparative advantages. What that means is that, sure, China used to make all the pharmaceuticals, but now we're not going to do that. So we've decided that, oh, I don't know, Honduras is now going to make the pharmaceuticals. Get ready. And we need to onshore key industries to our neighboring countries and make sure that they have comparative advantages. Now, we're not going to onshore the pharmaceutical manufacturing to the US because we still have a bunch of rules and regulations we can't get around. But do we have a country that's kind of like China? The rules are written in pencil and we can make it? Sure. So maybe they just say – close their eyes, point on the map and go Honduras. Welcome to the pharmaceutical industry, Honduras. You've been slated by the American empire to now start making these. And so that's what they're talking about. They're talking about making a calculation that some of the stuff that you used to get was from China. But China is going to be gone now. And and so you're going to have to find a different way of doing that. So restore neglected allies to their proper strategic role. Tired of being China's bitch. You can be America's bitch instead. They go on to say objective three, suppress narco terrorist organizations. Okay, they're going to suppress narco-terrorist organizations. By the way, if you want to make real money in the world and keep your business going for 400 years like the British East India Company did, you know what your industry you're going to need to get into? Narcotics. You got to. You got to get into moving drugs and moving people if you want to make a lot of money. So the idea that they're going to come in and suppress narco-terrorist organizations is delusional, magical thinking. You're going to go in and work with narco-terrorist organizations because you already currently do work with them through the CIA. So what you're saying is that you're going to pick winners. You're going to pick this cartel stays in business. We're going after that other cartel, the Sinaloa cartel or whoever, isn't willing to play ball. They'll be the boogeyman. We'll take their guy and put him in some supermax facility somewhere and say, see, we got to him. Meanwhile, there will be other cartels working with the U.S. empire to make sure that the drugs continue to flow because the drugs are going to continue to flow. If you are running America, there's this – you can give the talk to everybody that we're going to try and remove drugs from the country. You don't want Americans to come off drugs. If all Americans came off their drugs at the same time, you'd have a bigger problem. You kind of need the drugs. You need the pharmaceutical drugs to keep everybody from becoming insanely crazy. And you need the recreational drugs to keep everybody down on the reservation to keep from slitting your throats. So drugs are necessary. Drugs are not a bad thing. Drugs are going to be here, okay? Be they the pharmaceutical kind or the non-pharm. It's going to happen. The idea that they're going to suppress narco-terrorist organizations, that sounds good. It looks amazing in this document that you guys don't have to read anymore. And it sounds amazing when you stand in front of the podium and give the speech how you're going to stop this. But it's not really going to happen. They say they're going to designate cartels and gangs as foreign terrorist organizations. Why? So you can give them money and arms? And that's what you do with other foreign terrorist organizations. Are you going to create them out of thin air, finance them into existence, and then have them start wars in the Middle East? That would be hilarious. I mean we've already been doing that. You're going to designate them as a foreign terrorist organization with the other foreign terrorist organization? Maybe they should learn from the MEK or whoever it was, the group that was on the foreign terrorist organization watch list and then I think stole a cargo ship, sold all the contents, raised the money that way, and then used the money to pay the Trump organization enough money to get off the terrorist list. I think that's coming. That's the future of South America with the Don Road Doctrine. You will eventually at some point, we will call you a terrorist organization, put sanctions on you, And then you will just have to go out there and make some money to bribe the government officials to then get you off of the list. This is a great system. It works very works. Amazing. Let's move on. Goal number three. Goal number three. Peace and stability in the Indo-Pacific region. Guys, the American empire wants peace and stability. Don't you know? They just love it. managing competition with China through economic re-industrialization, strengthened alliances and military determinants. Did you catch the word? Re-industrialization. The re part is important. You could be tarted, but are you retarded? And you can be industrialized, but are you re-industrialized, right? Because that's what they're saying. We got to re-industrialize America, the American empire. That implies that at one point it was industrialized and that we did something. Yeah, Bill Clinton did that in the 90s with NAFTA. And he outsourced and moved all of the manufacturing capacity of America out of America and into Mexico and China. So now we have to re-industrialize through commercial advocacy and secure supply chains. That's what he's talking about. Well, we wouldn't have to re-industrialize if you hadn't de-industrialized us 30 years ago. All part of a plan. It wasn't Bill Clinton's idea, of course. I mean it wasn't like he just woke up and said, oh, thank God. No, this is coming from on high. So when I hear talk of supporting U.S. re-industrialization through commercial advocacy and securing supply chains, my mind immediately goes to, well, this is our version of the Belt and Road. initiative i mean it has to be right starting to make that calculation that the way asia and the middle east and it is in eastern europe are having this amazing belt and road not just the maritime string of pearls but also what's going on across land with the rails and and freeways and highways that are being built there there's a lot going on i think the united states feels like it's being left behind they've been so busy spending trillions of dollars reimagining the middle east for their uh you know for their controllers in israel that they forgot what made america the economic powerhouse it was from the beginning and so this idea that we're going to like have to re-industrialize and we're going to have to we're going to have to support this commercial advocacy and improve our supply chains. Yeah, of course, that that should go without saying. Have you taken a look around America? It's a shithole. It's a it's a third world shithole country. It's turning into one. The infrastructure is a catastrophe. So, yeah, we need our version of a Belt and Road initiative for no other reason to just fix the ports, airports, rail, any of the infrastructure inside America needs to be redone. They want to combat Chinese intellectual property theft and predatory economic strategies. Chinese economic – IP theft has been going on for a long time, and it's not limited to China. Sure, they're doing it on a just simply staggering scale. But again, let's not pretend like the Israelis didn't sell that technology to China. They've been involved in doing this for a long time. See how it works is this. American politicians get compromised because they're shitheads, and they wind up in these really bad situations. They then make decisions that give their handlers, the Israelis, all the things that they want. They have made decisions in the past to give Israelis the sort of information that intellectual property that then they use and have the – and sell to the Chinese, the Chinese manufactured things. And so American intellectual property, he's correct in saying that they need to combat Chinese theft of it, but it's not limited to the Chinese. And this entire document needs the big asterisk at the front. It says, yeah, yeah, some results may vary. Israel not included, whatever. Objects in the mirror may appear closer than they actually are, especially if they're Israel. So I get this, that they want to combat Chinese IP theft. And it's not for nothing. There's a need for that. But this they pretend that this is the only version of it is kind of delusional They say they want to pursue high bilateral trade deals with regional allies Well trade deals work better with your regional allies when you aren bombing the shit out of them or terrifying them or trying to regime change their government They want to secure critical minerals through innovative deals. Innovative deals meaning we steal all your stuff, I believe. I believe that's what he's talking about. secure critical minerals through innovative deals. You have critical minerals. Our innovative deal is this. We will bomb the shit out of you unless you allow our companies to go in there and mine your critical minerals and sell them at market and give you pennies on the dollar. That's kind of what we're talking about here. There's also something, the use of the quadrilateral security dialogue to counter Chinese exclusionary systems. They want the Chinese out and they want the American influence in. Objective two, deter aggression and establish military balance. Military balance. So they say we want to counter China's military buildup through allied coordination and we want to secure vital sea lanes and trade routes. Okay, establishing military balance. the terms military and balance should not be in the language of the American empire. We don't have military balance. If the American empire's military is balanced, then they've done something wrong. Because you spend a trillion dollars a year on your military, it shouldn't be balanced. It should be massively imbalanced against everybody else. When you spend more money than the entire world combined on military, balance should not be part of the formula. But they want it. He wants balance for some reason. He encourages allies to increase defense spending and give U.S. military greater access. We need you guys to buy our weapons because if you don't, the boogeyman is going to get you. You're like, well, we've been here for, I don't know, a thousand years and the boogeyman hasn't gotten us. We haven't needed to buy your weapons. Well, I'll tell you what. If you tell the American empire that you don't need to buy their weapons because there are no boogeymen coming to get your country, I assure you the boogeymen will appear to give you the justification to then buy those weapons. If you don't understand that, then you don't understand how the game works. That's it. nice flower shop you got here be ashamed if something bad happened to it right they want to provide allies access to revitalize u.s defense industrial base buy more bombs from us and drones by the way that when they say revitalize u.s defense industrial base what that means is we are now going to make the drones or we feel like we have to make the drones that would be why you would look at a company like andrew with lucky palmer and take a look at what they're doing over there if you want to see drones drones that you can launch from the back of a toyota pickup truck that's there right so i don't know how much of this is going to need to be made in china anymore in fact i think they're making a calculation that it can't be made in china also maintain open communication channels with china to reduce misunderstandings right yeah yeah misunderstandings meaning we don't want them to start the war until we're ready for them for us to start the war right moving on to goal for rebuild the civilizational alliance with european states oh you want to be friends with europe now do you core theme empower european allies to become self-sufficient in defense while rebalancing trade and defending shared western values shared western values shared western values like importing the third world in is that a shared western value that is not actually a shared western value i think what he's talking about here is we'd like to go back to the old ways where western values meant that there weren't You know, a steady stream of young men from Senegal walking into your country and setting up shop and they want to rebalance trade. And how are we going to objective one in order to do this transfer defense responsibility to allies? OK, this part is where Trump sets his side on Europe in this document, and he says, basically, you guys need to spend 5 percent of your GDP on on defense. All you NATO allies, you need to spend contribute 5 percent of your GDP towards NATO for defense. You're currently not doing that. America picks up more than 50 percent of the bill for NATO. The other countries aren't contributing much. And what he's saying is you better – you need to. He goes on to say support NATO as a mechanism for deterrence but demand real contributions. You guys better be contributing money to this, and if he doesn't see that, he's going to have an out. America needs to get out of NATO. It shouldn't exist. It's a relic of the past. It should have gone away when the Warsaw Pact went away in 91. But it didn't. It's still here, and it's the precursor of a world army, right? And Europe has been using NATO for a long time. We've talked about Gladio. We know what it is. We know what it's used for. And it's become a bit outdated, and it has no relevance. I don't think Russia is terrified of NATO. I think they're scared that the United States is part of it. And with Article 5, it's – if one guy in the gang gets in a fight, the entire gang has to jump in. It's required by law, right? So it's not so much that Russia looks at NATO and is like NATO is a formidable force to be reckoned with. It's like no, America is. If America left NATO, well, NATO wouldn't exist, right? If America left NATO and went off to do its own thing and then missiles started flying on Brussels and turned that into a smoldering parking lot, I don't think that Russia would fear the rest of NATO's retaliatory actions about that. I don't think NATO scares Russia at all as long as America is not a part of it. And you can see how Donald Trump is not a fan of NATO. He's not into this. So he's talking about advocating for tangible military capabilities as Europe assumes conventional defense responsibilities. He's telling them, we're going to be leaving. You better know how to take care of yourself because we're out of here. And really the whole reason for NATO and Gladio was to prevent the mission creep of the Soviet Union. Like, yeah, we're not totally done. And yeah, we stopped here like halfway through Germany, but we may go the rest of the way. We may continue west. And so you create NATO as this thing that keeps the Russians out, the Americans in, and the Germans down. And so that's going away, and it seems like it's going away. I hope it goes away. It should have gone away three decades ago, but better late than never. I think that Trump is getting tired of paying the bills, right? So he's telling them you got to kick in. He says, I want to end the Russia-Ukraine war. I want to negotiate arms control for nuclear, chemical, and biological weapons and be done with it, right? I don't know. We'll see. Objective two, rebalance trade and reduce adversarial dependencies. Again, this is back to the EU. He's saying we need reciprocal trade with you guys. The trade balance is out of whack. we we want america to have a different relationship with trade we might have to weaken the dollar in order to do that talks about promoting u.s energy exports national uh natural gas we need to push natural gas to to the eu well you know it's it's way easier for the american empire to push the need for natural gas when you blow up the nordstrom pipeline that was bringing in natural gas from russia to germany and elsewhere and you blow that up and then all of a sudden now you don't have the access to that so you're gonna have to get it from somewhere where you're gonna get it from america and how much you're gonna pay probably triple but at least you won't be buying it from the russians you know because they're awful and they're evil right i you know the news told me so he wants to support efforts to reduce european reliance on china for critical supply chains and things like that he he wants um this this is a funny one he's telling europe you need to remove chinese hardware and software from european critical infrastructure i i mean it's one thing if it's a suggestion but he but he's like hey you need to do this you europe like we have a we america have a problem with china so you europe you need to take all the chinese hardware and software out of your infrastructure europe's like the fuck we will and like we don't have we don't have to do anything like who are you to tell us that we have to do all this so it's funny that they want they desperately want the chinese software out out of this infrastructure i wonder why because you know what you would do if you had compromised software right like kind of the way the cia did that to chen yobel back in 86 or previous to that were actually when they built the plant when they made sure that the soviets stole the blueprints for the intellectual property all this technology to build infrastructure build uh nuclear power plants and build them with flaws in them right so i'm sure america knows what they've done to the soviet union and went fuck you know if the chinese are doing this with their infrastructure like with their software if they put compromised hardware or compromised software into the infrastructure of europe it's like a ticking time bomb may go off who knows 10 years from now 20 years from now four months from now you never know that by the way was the one thing they said that in the aftermath of the soviet union figuring out that the chenobal plant was a u.s you know the the The operation that we've done this work on this before, that they set up the Soviet Union to steal the plans that had the flaw in it and they did it and they built it. It wasn't so much that that one power plant was built with faulty flaws. It's that the Soviet Union knew that they had stolen a shitload of other ones and built this throughout their country and they didn't know what was what. And so the American empire is looking at this and they're going, you in Europe need to remove all the Chinese software that you've got in your infrastructure because if you're running some water treatment facility that's using a Chinese microprocessor, that thing may have been compromised 10 years ago. Set to once it hits the one millionth revolution of this, it drops into some different sequence. And next thing you know, your water treatment facility starts overheating and the whole thing blows up, right? They know. That's why they're talking about this. Objective three, goal four, defend civilizational values. This one is almost too funny to talk about. Condemn restrictions on free speech and religious freedom in Europe. The irony. Like America is like, hey, you people in Europe need to tone down your opposition to free speech. Meanwhile, Trump administration is trying to find ways that you can eliminate criticism of Israel from social media or even prevent you from having the thought. That guy over there was thinking about it. Let's put him in an insane asylum. So the idea that like the American empire is like, hey, we need to get a handle on this, all these suppression of free speech. It's like, please stop. We have to oppose lawfare used to ban political opponents. Again, this is pure theater. It says, accuse your enemies of that which you yourself are guilty of. Support European nations in recognizing mass migration as a threat. Well, yeah, it is a threat. It's called the Kalergi plan. The group who is putting the Kalergi plan into play are the Israelis. And we know this because they talk openly about it. I'm not speculating about that. They talk about it. So the group who is running Donald Trump and creating the havoc, the southern border situation in America, the what's going on in Western Europe coming up from North Africa through Turkey, this is all being done by the people who control Trump. So the idea that Trump is going to talk about recognizing mass migration as a threat. Okay, fine. Maybe European nations will recognize mass migration as a threat. Doesn't mean they have to do anything about it. Goal five. Let's move on to this one. U.S. economic and technological dominance. So they want to rebuild American manufacturing. They want to correct unfair trade practices. and they want to ensure global leadership in critical technologies. Well, that's easy to do. Find Doc Brown, get in the DeLorean, set it for 1995, kill Bill Clinton before he can institute NAFTA, and you'll win. And then this will all be done. Because all the things that they want to do here is shit that we should have not done in the mid-90s. And then you wouldn't have to fix all these issues. They would have been non-issues, right? So re-industrialize the United States, secure supply chains from dependence on adversaries, right? You can't be dependent on China for 97% of your pharmaceuticals and then go to war against China because all the Americans will be coming off of their antipsychotics at the same time. So you need to plan accordingly, right? You've said, well, if we get 95% of the rare earth minerals are all refined in China and we have to have rare earth minerals, we'll then either don't start a war with China or have the refinement situation figured out in advance. But what you don't want to do is start the war with China and then go, oh, shit, I forgot. We need rare earth minerals. And you're like, yeah, well, we have them here. Oh, OK. But yeah, but we need to refine them. Oh, shit, man. You should have told us that before we dropped the bombs because all the refineries are in China. So if you need us to refine it, we're going to now need to create the industry of refining rare earth. I mean, the whole thing would be a mess, right? so you have to think about this stuff in advance and so again if you're if you're talking about shoring up supply chains from from and making sure that they're more western hemisphere dependent you go okay so why would you be doing that i guess it's a good thing right but why would you be doing that maybe because you plan to start problems in either china or the middle east now if you're shoring up your your oil and gas and you're taking over venezuela so that you have crude and you're taking over Nigeria so that you have oil as well both of those regions no issues with maritime choke points right Venezuela is just straight shot north Nigeria straight shot west you'll you'll you'll run right into Houston both cases right so those are you take care of that if you planned on having problems in the Middle East if you planned on going to war with China you would shore up your supply chains to make sure that you didn't you no longer needed the things that you currently need from China. So they're talking about this, which makes me think that eventually there will be a war with China. Because, well, I'll tell you this, maybe there will be and maybe there won't be. But if you were going to have a war with China, these are the things that you would do in advance of that. So we'll leave it at that and not put that out into the universe that there's going to be a war. It's just that these are the things that you would do if you were going to get ready for a war to focus on strategic sectors they talk about energy critical minerals ai semiconductors advanced manufacturing aerospace robotics pharmaceuticals biotech quantum science so anything that's currently being outsourced to asia you got to kind of onshore that or at the very least you got to have good relationships like you can have the relationship we have with Taiwan, right? They make semiconductors there. Like if China goes away, then we have Taiwan. But what if Taiwan gets taken? Well, then that's a problem, right? And if everything runs on semiconductors, you have to be thinking a couple steps ahead. You have to be thinking decades ahead, in fact, because these aren't the types of refineries and decisions that get made overnight. This takes a while. So rebuilding the defense industrial base and promote it to its allies they're talking about military industrial complex making sure that you're not buying weapons from europe you're buying weapons from america right or china you know you're not you're not you're certainly not buying weapons from china but but um because everything will now have to be made in america and they talk about this creating an economic block of pro-American countries using American technology and exports. So we need a the way everyone in NATO uses 5 rounds right And everybody in Warsaw uses 7 So you need a group You need to create a block of pro countries using American technology and America exports And then you just kind of work on that group and make sure that they continue to be pro-American technology. You flood them with everything that they need so that it just becomes – they no longer even think about maybe we could buy this from China. Maybe we get this from Europe. They go on to talk about Objective 2, stop abuse of the global trading system. They say to correct trade deficits through using reciprocal tariffs. Trump's been all over the tariff stuff. He's been talking about it since he got back into office. This is kind of what it's about, part of it at least. Combat unfair practices, trade tariffs, import substitutions, currency manipulation. It's funny. We're complaining about unfair practices like currency manipulation. We, the American empire that uses the American dollar, we're going to complain about currency manipulation. How amazing, right? They talk about how if these countries in the Western Hemisphere fail to pay their value-added tax, the VAT, the American empire will impose punitive tariffs of 40% or more on them. So they're already talking about the carrot and the stick, the stick being 40 percent tariffs, and they're not afraid to use that. They're talking about making commercial diplomacy the centerpiece of economic strategy. They said we just want to open up the world for business or the American empire, except China and except Europe. Well, really, we just want to open up the Western Hemisphere. We want to slit our throat by giving us only access to about 25% of the world in terms of population, more like only about 10%. I don't know. Are we winning? Are we winning, guys? It doesn't feel like it. He goes on to say that business advocacy is the central tool of foreign policy. Well, yeah, just ask Smedley Butler. He could talk to you about that. Goal five, objective three. increase u.s exports and strategic investment they want to promote american exports in ai american exports in energy we could be an energy exporter if we chose to be we have a ton of energy here and maybe he will promote the exports of that right he's talking about definitely promoting the weapons systems and this is he's the trump fancies himself the biggest you know gun dealer in the world he talks about um promoting american capital markets in american manufacturing advanced manufacturing and things like that well i mean promoting the american capital markets are you talking about the u.s dollar because it felt like you guys weren't even interested in preserving the petrodollar anymore you allowed saudi arabia to kind of move off of that and the capital markets you mean like the like we've seen what you've done with other markets like comex and forex you've rigged them you rig all the marketplaces so i don't know the idea of like promoting american capital markets like this has been going on for 50 years with the petrodollar i don't know how much you need to promote the problem is that the american capital markets are It's dangerous places to do business. I mean the rest of the world took note when the American empire stole the $300 billion of Russian money that was their liquidity pool. In doing that, $300 billion is a hell of a lot of money. But even if it was $100 million, the idea that the American empire would do that is crazy, and it shows that they can't be trusted. It's a new era where they might – yeah, it's Russia today, and we've got a problem with Russia apparently, and they'll take their money. But that's Russia, but they would never do that to us. Well, I don't know. Don't be so sure because if they'll do it to Russia, they'll do it to anybody. And I think that this is part of – Trump may have this sales pitch of promoting American capital markets, but he's going to have a lot of – it's going to be an uphill battle because the worst advertising campaign for American capital markets happened when the Biden administration authorized to steal the Russian money. When you did that, you sent a signal to the rest of the world that we are a banana republic and that it used to be that you could trust us with your swift banking system. You could run – everything flows through America. It used to be that you could trust us, but now you have to think twice about it. He wants to expand US energy production. He wants to export a ton of energy to achieve energy dominance, whatever that means. I think it means something different to him than it does to other people. He wants to ensure the US dollar remains the global reserve currency. And when he says US dollar, what he means is the Federal Reserve note, which isn't a US dollar. It's backed by nothing. It's backed by a private bank. It's owned by a consortium of other private banks, mostly owned in Europe. But that's our banking system. And he wants to control and export American AI tech to trusted partners only. And I'm assuming that trusted partners only means Israel and maybe anybody who pays us. I don't know. The idea that we're going to control the export of American artificial intelligence technology, I think that horse has left the stable. I just don't understand how you think you're going to get a handle on this. But again, I'm not trying to get into the mind of President Trump and little Marco Rubio, but I think some of this is aspirational and not anchored in reality. I think that America's behavior for the past century is a cautionary tale to anybody that wants to do business with America. They will steal your money. They will bomb you to smithereens if you get on the wrong side of them. And so I don't know that this Don Roe doctrine – I don't know that the plan for the next five years, the way the Trump administration sees it towards the rest of Central and South America. I don't know that they have a say in this. I don't know that this is optional is what I'm getting at. I think that they seek to impose these ideas on the rest of – on South America. well again going back to where we started you can have a 10-step plan for global domination but if you can't figure out the early steps it doesn't matter what step seven eight nine look like you just won't ever get to them so it's it's one thing he's talking about this he goes on to say for objective four of goal five strengthen technological edge prevent adversaries from accessing u.s developed technology good luck on it you u.s developed technology has been sold out the back door for as long as i've been alive so license ai and cutting-edge tech to only secure partner countries maybe maybe not yeah dominate global market share through aggressive tech exports aggressive tech exports i don't even know what that looks like it sounds like a digital panopticon to me but and raise money for investing in r&d for biotech semiconductors uh quantum computers and telecommunications right so he's he's talking about technology he's saying that he wants america to be a technological leader in it but it's not in a lot of this stuff you know we're still talking about windmills and so you know we've ditched the idea of nuclear. We have all kinds of real authentic opportunities for technology, energy technology that may never see the light of day simply because they up in the existing structure here with the oil companies. So let's move on. This is the last goal. Goal six, we'll talk about targeted foreign assistance that puts American interests first. Again, sounds good. The core theme, redirect foreign aid towards strategic U.S. interests with emphasis on trade-based development over traditional humanitarian assistance. You remember our traditional humanitarian assistance? That's where we bomb a country filled with brown people to smithereens. And then when the ambulances show up, 30 minutes later, we bomb them again. That's called a double tap. Obama did that. when he when that other day of his presidency that was uh tarnished when the the first day of course being the day he wore the tan suit and the second day being when he drone striked a wedding party and then waited for the first responders to show up and then hit him again that'd be the second day for those keeping score so objective one in this leverage assistance as statecraft every dollar must be directly justified in terms of U.S. interests. Boy, what a gray area that is. Imagine dragging somebody in front of Congress for some House committee panel and whatever. And they go, I can't believe you spent all that money on this or that. And he just goes, hey, it was justified because it was in the U.S. interest. As vague as you could be, right? Every dollar must be directly justified in terms of U.S. interests. U.S. interest in giving money to Israel for their interests? Is that our interest in their interests? So because it gets a bit blurry. Prioritize recipients who advance U.S. interests. Military ties, migration cooperation, favorable U.N. voting, fair trade. This is exactly what John Perkins said in Confessions of an Economic Hitman. This is what happened. You would loan money. This is what he would do in Ecuador or in South America. Go to Ecuador. Beautiful topography. Got the right place for a hydroelectric power plant that our guys will build. Loan you the money. We got you set up with a loan from the World Bank. I don't know. A billion dollars, 5% interest, pay itself off in 15 years, let's just say. Payments come. Hydroelectric power plant gets built, starts generating revenue. Revenue goes towards paying back this loan. Loan's getting paid back, sort of. It's getting paid back, kind of. It's getting paid back a little bit. Fuck, we've defaulted. World Bank comes in and says, it's a nice hydroelectric power plant of ours that we loaned you money to build with our guys. It seems you've fallen behind in your payments. We can't exactly go there with a sledgehammer and knock that hydroelectric power plant out and take it down, but we can work with you. Maybe we renegotiate the terms of this deal. What were the terms that John Perkins talked about? Favorable UN voting. Voting our way in a U.N. resolution was one of the top ones. Hey, it seems you've fallen behind in your payments. We can rectify that. You see, next month we're going to have – we're going to go – you're all going to be in New York City. We're going to – at the U.N. building. When they vote for whether or not we condemn the behavior of Israel, you're going to pretend like everything is good. Got it? We'll allow this to go right. So they invent funny money, Federal Reserve notes, conjure them out of thin air, fiat currency by decree, create an organization like the World Bank, which then takes these invented, printed-on-demand funny money pieces of Monopoly paper, loans them to countries at interest. The countries fall behind on their payment to repay the funny money to this organization, the World Bank, that has deemed itself a bank out of nowhere. It's a Rockefeller-created entity. You've now fallen behind in payments to this bank that loans you monopoly money, and the next thing you have to do is you have to vote a certain way in a UN security resolution meeting. This is how you understand debt slavery, and this is why the light bulb went off for me in 2007 when I read that book. I just went, oh, my God, I had no idea that the scam was this big. So when I see this, when I see, well, prioritize the recipients who advance U.S. interests, our military ties, our migration cooperation, our fair trade, and our favorable U.N. voting. This is exactly what we're doing. This is no different. He goes on to say deploy assistance flexibility for diplomatic negotiations, national security needs and critical mineral access. So we've got money for you for all kinds of things, national security needs, critical mineral access, and even for diplomatic negotiations, provided that you're on good terms with us. So they also want to realign spending for the Western Hemisphere and East Asia. Currently, the amount of money that is being spent on the Western Hemisphere and East Asia is about 10% to 15%. They would like that number to be 40%. So you're looking at anywhere from three to four times more than what it currently is to prioritize the Western Hemisphere. So if they have it their way, be buying a lot less stuff from China and a lot more stuff from Guyana or maybe even French Guyana. We'll see. Goal six, objective two, promote trade, not aid. Invest in exporting American technology, talking about health care, communications, energy, and transportation. So we want to invest in exporting American technology, and we want to offer U.S. investment as alternative to Chinese. We always say – they call this debt trap diplomacy. Our debt trap is better than the Chinese debt trap. You should come get into ours, not theirs. That's basically what it is. And they want to diversify partners away from NGOs towards American businesses. That I actually don't have a problem with because the NGOs are dangerous. They're unaccountable and definitely up to no good. Not that American businesses aren't as well, but if you had a preference, you'd go with that one over the other. They will also want to update procurement to market standards with investments from partner governments. All right. Can't be the third world anymore. Western hemisphere. You're now going to have to all up your game. Right. We have to update the procurement to market standards. We have certain standards. Can't have you doing this, you know, haphazardly like you're in guatemala or someplace guatemala you're going to have to step up into the first world the american empire has dictated this right so this is it this is the this is what they're talking about the u.s department of state strategic plan 2026 2030 i read it you don't have to it's boring but it's important in in the sense that you have to understand what they're talking about now this is their business plan for the next five years now as as businesses go and as business plans have shown you have to allow for some flexibility right things come up and things change this is the outline of where they want to take take things we'll see how how it plays out you know it's also easy to put something like this into into easier i should say to put this into into play when you aren't fighting wars on multiple fronts and you aren't doing things like that so So as long as the American empire continues to destabilize the Middle East, I don't think any of this is going to get done because part of their plan, part of the Trump doctrine is that we need to ditch the Middle East. We can't focus on that anymore. We need to really prioritize the Western Hemisphere, and I just don't think that our partners in Israel will allow that. And if they don't want that, then that's not going to happen because if it were really America first, we would prioritize the Western Hemisphere. And it's good to have goals, but it doesn't mean they're going to magically happen just because they want them to. These people make a lot – they make a lot of mistakes, and they may be monsters, but they're monsters who don't always get it right. So nothing is set in stone. We must always push back for no other reason, just to be difficult. If you like this episode, you can take the additional step right now of sharing it with your friends and family.
