James Rawles discusses how the U.S. has undergone a socialist coup, which is in its early stages, and is now consolidating power in Washington. He doesn't believe President Biden will complete his 4-year term and gives his thoughts on what the "QAnon" movement was really about. He believes the pandemic was exaggerated and its psychological and economic effects will be felt for decades, as we are now on the cusp of hyperinflation. He warns of the danger of governments implementing sovereign cryptocurrencies (CBDCs) and why the days are numbered for private cryptocurrencies. He thinks more lockdowns and Covid variants are to come. We also discuss strategic relocation within the United States and the threat of great power military conflict, including even the potential for a Chinese land invasion of the United States. *Support/Donate to Geopolitics & Empire: SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/geopolitics PayPal https://www.paypal.me/geopolitics Bitcoin http://geopoliticsandempire.com/bitcoin-donate Websites Survival Blog https://survivalblog.com Books https://survivalblog.com/writings Constitution First Amendment Press Association http://cfapa.org About James Rawles James Wesley Rawles is a survivalist author, lecturer, and founder and editor of SurvivalBlog.com which has more than 320,000 unique visitors per week and is considered the Internet’s premier source of information on family preparedness and survival topics.
