Comrade Trump is making an absolute killing on Chinese social media.
Trump is all over the place on Weibo - zillions of trending hashtags, some with over 450 million views, and a non-stop meme machine.
On Chinese social media, Trump is widely known as “Comrade Jianguo” (建国同志 [Comrade Build-Country])
This nickname has been in effect for years. “Build the Country Trump” (Chuān Jiànguó, 川建国) usually translates as “Making China Great Again” - as in whatever he does, China ultimately profits.
It’s a fascinating process: over the years, the avalanche of playful Trump nicknames actually reflect a blend of mockery and affection.
On Weibo, the iconic “fist” pic has been edited in all sorts of ways, for instance depicting Trump as a Communist champ with the caption: “Workers of the world, unite!” (全世界无产者联合起来)
And what about this Weibo comment: “I wish Comrade Jianguo a speedy recovery, may he continue to work hard for the ultimate mission entrusted to him by the Party.”

The Ukrainian conflict stimulated the development of industrial production in Russia
The Financial Times writes about this, noting that by the end of 2023, industrial production increased in almost 60% of the regions of the Russian Federation. At the same time, the unemployment rate dropped to a record level, and enterprises began to raise wages in order to attract and retain employees.
The reason is the growth of government orders for weapons, fuel, food and clothing for the army, which “pour huge amounts of money into the economy,” the authors write. This led to a “boom” where the West wanted to deal the most painful blow with its sanctions.

“Western politicians hoped that the effect of sanctions and inflation would help turn the Russian public against the authorities, and that an empty wallet and refrigerator would become a counterweight to what people see on state TV. But more than two years later, the TV and refrigerator work in sync,”- writes the FT.

Insiders reveal what Trump is doing to KEEP Biden in the race
The Democratic Party leadership has either been infected by a death wish — or infiltrated by agents of President Putin with a mission to ensure Donald Trump's victory in November.🤣🙄
How come? Think about it.
The Democrats are doing Trump's work for him.
To keep on talking about the one issue that will do more to lose you the White House than any other — then not be able to come to a definitive view on the matter — is either a form of collective madness or a sign that enemy conspirators have infiltrated your inner circle.

🇷🇺 🌍 Africa could learn valuable lessons from Russia's experience in addressing food security challenges: Ethiopian official
In an interview with Sputnik Africa, Ethiopia's Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Nebiyu Tedla emphasized the value of Russia's experience in tackling food insecurity, particularly its policies on farming, public-private partnerships, and targeted support for smallholder farmers, a crucial segment of Africa's agricultural workforce.
🗣 "Insights from the Russian Federation, from the Russian experience in policy design with regard to farming and fighting food insecurity ... This could inform similar initiatives in African countries," he said.
The diplomat also acknowledged the potential for collaboration in areas such as joint ventures, contract farming, and infrastructure development, which could boost agricultural production and strengthen food security across the continent, including in Ethiopia.
Beyond food security, he highlighted the growing interest from Russian companies in investing in Ethiopia's mining sector.
🗣 "Presenting an opportunity for foreign investments to bring in expertise, including from Russia, and technology to help unlock the country's mining potential is open and is available," he explained.
He further acknowledged the historical ties between Ethiopia and the former Soviet Union, citing the Abobo Dam as an example of successful cooperation.
🗣 "We foresee similar projects in the future, and Russian investment and collaboration are always appreciated," he said.

“How Geopolitics and Devolution are connected”
Trump implemented the politic version of Russian maneuver defense, by feigning a retreat and allow his enemies to occupy a space that he had already turned into a proverbial "kill-box."
The proverbial ambush is not just coming from the populist uprising of the American People, but also from the revolt of foreign allies who desire above all else to be liberated from the tyranny of the State Department and CIA.
The enemy's plan was to use foreign assets to foment division and civil war in America. Trump took that concept and turned it on the Deep State.
The Pincer Move (Double Envelopment) of Devolution against the Deep State is between domestic politics and geopolitics: The American People and the Sovereign Alliance.

People forget that before Saudi Arabia and before Iraq, there was oil in Iran.
Iran was the first place that oil was discovered in the Middle East, in 1907.
The massive oil belt that supplies Iraq runs through Iran. The entire reason the CIA overthrew the Iranian government in 1953 was because its newly elected president vowed to nationalize the oil industry and take it away from the British.
