China’s Economy Spirals With No End in Sight, Says Kyle Bass

 China's Economic Crisis

- Communist China is experiencing its worst economic crisis ever, which the regime will not recover from.

- Key issues include a real estate crisis, a banking crisis, youth unemployment crisis, and concerns over the current account.

- U. S. tariffs and reduced trade are challenging China's economic advantage: its trade surplus with the U. S.

- China’s exports to the U. S. declined by 35% in May year-on-year.

- Capital flight is affecting China significantly, with a $500 billion outflow of foreign investments in 2024.

- There is a significant debt issue, with a projected debt-to-GDP ratio of about 350%.

- China's bond market reveals economic trouble, with a notable yield difference compared to U. S. bonds.

- Economic issues have persisted since the collapse of major developers like Evergrande and Country Garden in 2021.

- Unemployment rate reached a two-year high of 5. 7%, with youth unemployment at 16. 9%.

- Consumer prices fell for the fourth month in a row, and industrial profits decreased by 9. 1% compared to the previous year.

U. S. -China Relations

- The U. S. relies on China for certain imports, like rare earths and pharmaceutical ingredients.

- The U. S. imported 70% of its rare earths from China between 2020-2023.

- The U. S. has control over the global dollar system, providing leverage against China's currency.

- The U. S. should negotiate severing China's access to the dollar if China takes military action against Taiwan.

Taiwan Issue

- The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) considers Taiwan a renegade province but it operates as a de facto independent nation.

- U. S. Defense Secretary warned about China's military preparation to invade Taiwan by 2027.

- Any military move by China against Taiwan could have severe consequences globally.

- Recent U. S. military actions against Iran have made China reconsider its military stance.

- Securing Taiwan is vital for U. S. national security and preventing China from expanding its power projection.

Fauci Files Reveal Pfizer Helped Biden Rig 2020 Election

 Pfizer secretly colluded with Joe Biden's team to help him rig the 2020 election against Trump, according to new Fauci documents. In his new book, "On Call," Fauci admits that Albert Bourla, the CEO of Pfizer, called him the night after Biden was declared the winner of the election, to inform him of Pfizer's "Game-changing results" from the rigged mRNA trial. "On November 7, after the absentee ballots were counted, Joe Biden was declared the winner of the presidential election. It was the very next night that Albert Bourla, Pfizer's CEO, called me away from my neighbors' fire pit to inform me about the game-changing results from the Pfizer mRNA vaccine trial. I finally thought we had truly turned a corner in defeating this terrible disease." Today reports: In another interesting tidbit, Fauci discusses Trump's FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn declaring that he would not go along with the Trump Administration's plan to roll out the vac...

  Multiple U.S. states governed by Republicans are withdrawing state funds from BlackRock's management, as they disapprove of the ESG investment policies of the world's top asset manager, the Financial Times reports.

The Biden-Harris White House Has An Iranian Spy Leaking U.S. Intelligence In It

 The question is, how did classified intelligence from the United States, showing Israeli military movements that suggest broader action against Iran, get to Tehran? The answer raises uncomfortable questions for the Biden-Harris White House, which has opposed Israel every step of the way in responding to Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran. Defying Biden got Israel the entire leadership of Hezbollah and Hamas, with the ultimate threat still looming: Iran and its nuclear program. Operations against Iran are being assessed also because Iran has started firing ballistic missiles into Israel, targeting civilian centers across the country. If Israel is close to launching a broader offensive against Iran, leaking U.S. intelligence would be a way to both try and deter Israel and give more warning to Iran. In 2012, similar allegations were made against the Obama administration when U.S. intelligence leaks showed that Israel was working towards using "Azerbaijan as a base of operations in the event...
