I have stated several times the USA hegemony is over, that is right they were sold out many years ago, which I have repeated several times, but you guys cannot face reality.

And no, he is not making America great again, he trying to maintain the empire, two separate things.
Empire decline a fact of history deal with it.
Small god for you.
Were we defeated when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?
You should just pack it in and await your destruction.

Don’t worry.
Rfk Jr is going to spray the TDS vaccine cure over the air with airplanes and then all the liberals will be healthy again.

Or, other countries will improvise, adapt, and overcome.
BRICS is other countries improvising, adapting and all for the hope they will overcome.

The nations that have stopped buying debt are adapting and the countries who are now selling debt are also adapting.

Trump is simply responding to them adapting to $36+ trillion in debt.

I largely agree with your assessments. We live in interesting and potentially perilous times.

Very false; they are saving our Republic (USA is Not a democracy; a democracy has a dictator, a Republic does not). The dementia laden Biden Presidency was really run by Obama & George Soros with goal to destroy America forcing a one world government. Americans are against this and Globalism. President Trump is reducing the theft of American assets & tax dollars used to destabilize our & other countries unwilling to go Global & to push no borders and perversions to destroy faith in our Creator God and to destroy youth here & worldwide (pedophelia, Abortion, homosexuality, transgenderism) while making themselves & willing sold out politicians wealthy.
I dont know where you have it that an democratie has an dictator. Maby you are false informed about an democratie. Its more the opposit.

Would you say Trump is not working for his own person and wealth?
The unbiblical practices you mentioned are no result of the lefties. Its the result of godless living style.

Brother, i am not offended and i enjoy the conversations with you.
You're a good man and you analyze details well based on my conversations with you so far.
You always send a link too when you have a political point to make and i appreciate that.

But, i don't know if you've seen this link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_dates_predicted_for_apocalyptic_events

Notice how busy the "schedule" gets during the 20th century because people have this obsession that the world is going to end in their lifetime and that the apocalypse is going to happen now.
Again thank you. I wasn't meaning what I said as predictions. Instead I was trying to point out that very similar to those Scriptures, especially about the ten horns(Rev. 17:12-18), at some time in history the ten horns who have up to that point given their power and strength to the beast(make war with the Lamb) then change their focus towards the harlot. In verse 17:17 the reason is given that God put's it into their hearts to give their kingdom unto the beast. The beast is carrying the harlot but at some other point in time the ten horns go after the harlot part of the beast description. So it seems they are aligned with the Beast and then turn against it. So at first God put's it in their hearts but then afterwards does he remove it? The point I am meaning is that God put's it into their heart to do this similar to hardening the Pharaohs heart then it seems that later changes. Anyway it might be some time in unfolding but also it might not be incorrect to notice the different nations in Europe changing their positions both in Europe,Israel and the US.

In verse 12 of Revelation 17 it gives the amount of time the ten kings give their power and strength to the beast (one hour). After the "one hour" how ever long that is to God they change. Revelation 17:17 is referring to Revelation 17:12's length of time (one hour) that God puts it into their heart to give their kingdom to the beast. I'm pointing this out because many debate nations repenting and turning to the Lord or not and being punished. The ten horns give their kingdom to the beast for one hour(God puts it in their heart), but after that turn the opposite direction.

DOGE has discovered that there are 394 million Social Security recipients in the U.S.

There are only 334 million citizens in the U.S.

The Social Security Administration admits only 68.4M people receive benefits, but refuses to explain the staggering gap

However...
If Congress votes and approves a specific grant to an NGO....the President can't interfere.
Bills aren't written that way generally. There are earmarks for spending, but NGO's are seldom specified. The Supreme Court has already ruled USAID money can be suspended unless the work has already been done.

All of this has been good for the American people who had no idea just how wasteful the government truly is. I honestly believe over a trillion in waste, fraud, and abuse will be found. A restructuring of government spending is long over due.

Well that explains our deficit and debt, everyone in this country is retired and living off of social security along with about 60 million aliens. I'm just wondering if maybe AI and robots couldn't do a better job than the people working in this department.

President Trump revealed in his joint session of Congress speech the unbelievable numbers of elderly receiving Social Security.
One was more than 200 years old!

Others were over 100 y.o.

Who's actually getting that money?

I know a 63 year old who applied. They also work.

He was told he makes too much money so to get SS or Medicaid. Then they said he hadn't paid into the SS disability program so he doesn't qualify for that either.

The silver lining ,according to the SS representative he talked with, is he can get SS when he reaches 67. And he can make a much money as he wants at the same time. Which isn't true.
If he makes too much money at 67 they will cut his SS.

Doge it's like a mechanic who has no idea what he's doing, trying to fix a car and just starts ripping out wires that he doesn't think are important
Some of the people fired were people doing jobs like cyber security and keeping national parks clean and free of litter
Also these 30 something thousand government employees who just lost their jobs contributing to local economies.
We are headed for another recession under Trump and Elon.
Also we will most likely lose every Ally we have because Trump wants to be Petty
