With destructive Democrats as their domestic arm, the Communist Chinese will make easy work of the end of the American century.
China-Led Economic Group Pushes Forward With Plans To Topple American Dominance
The top two issues during the August 22-24 Brics meeting are a possible expansion of the group and the oft-discussed but mostly elusive idea of creating a denomination, possibly backed by gold.
Can the Beijing-dominated group known as Brics successfully challenge America’s decades-long dominance of the global economy?
In 2001, Goldman Sachs’s chief economist, Jim O’Neill, predicted that as a group Brazil, Russia, India, and China would within a decade surpass the world’s top economies. Next week the group, which was later organized under the acronym Brics, adding South Africa, will meet at Johannesburg for its most-anticipated annual gathering to date.
The top two issues during the August 22-24 meeting are a possible expansion of the group and the oft-discussed but mostly elusive idea of creating a denomination, possibly backed by gold. This would help members and others to bypass what is currently the dominant coin in world trade: the greenback.
The International Monetary Fund, though, could prove to be a roadblock to backing any new currency with gold, as a senior research faculty member at the American Institute for Economic Research, Thomas Hogan, observed in the Sun. That’s because the Second Amendment to the IMF’s articles of agreement “specifically forbids the use of gold as a currency denominator” by member nations.
Meanwhile, as part of Brics, Communist China has created financial institutions to compete with global bodies like the IMF and World Bank, and Beijing’s institutions increasingly dominate lending in countries known as “the global south.” South Africa, which holds the rotating Brics presidency in 2023, is allying with Moscow and Beijing. The rest of the security-challenged continent is following Pretoria’s cue.
Brics’ China-based New Development Bank is “allowed to operate on the international scene equivalent to other international organizations, even though it has only a narrow membership” of the five countries, a former World Bank president, David Malpass, told Bloomberg Television, adding, “I think there has to be a rethinking of the international financial system to give less dominance to Russia and China.”
America “is a world power, and should seek peace through strength,” Mr. Malpass tells the Sun. Yet, Washington seems to eschew rethinking multilateralism. Instead, it actively encourages African countries to associate with Brics, even at the expense of America-dominated institutions like the World Bank and the IMF.
“We have long stood for the proposition that countries should be able to freely associate with other countries in any groupings that they want,” Secretary Blinken told reporters in June, when asked about the upcoming Brics meeting.
As a group, Brics is far from united politically. India, for one, is a member of the “quad,” which along with America, Australia, and Japan was formed to counter China’s expansionism. This week Chinese and Indian representatives met in an apparently unsuccessful attempt to reduce military tensions on their joint border in the Himalayas.

The Democrats (our hostile ruling class) invited China. China didn’t slither in here and take over the Democrats, but that’s the picture that has been painted. The Democrats want us in a war of survival with China, so they made sure China would be well positioned to cause harm and take the blame for it. China has done what they would be expected to do if every opportunity was handed to them on a silver platter.
OUR enemy sets their enemies against each other. They conquer by setting their enemies up to murder each other. They don’t want China to rule the world or they can’t rule the world themselves. They want China dead and they want the USA dead.
The Democrats are the domestic arm of another old enemy. The Democrats are the domestic arm of our first enemy. Communist China is a natural enemy, so they were invited. Islam is a natural enemy, so Muslims were invited. Millions upon millions of people flooding across our border are a natural enemy, so they were invited.
All this international crap is effectively steps toward a global government.
I don’t know who downvoted this comment but they were too cowardly to own up. This is a perfectly relevant comment and I agree with it. Nixon went to China in the 70s and brought people whose activity have led to this current situation.

How’d that 2001 Goldman Sachs prediction that within a decade BRICS would surpass the world’s top economies work out?
The BRICS, none of which has a hard currency, want to invent a hard currency backed by gold. Yeah, right. Not sure what drug they’re on but it must be some really good stuff.
