Broken civilizations get rebuilt at the local community level as families, businesses, churches and small civil governments begin to learn what those local institutions can be. That is happening right now in the US, primarily in rural counties.

President Trump Spoiled the Davos Garden Party

He did not honor them with his presence. But he did make a live video link appearance to rebuke them. Mr. Trump informed them that the United States is taking a new direction 180 degrees opposite the Davos globalist geopolitical framework because, he inferred, they are on the wrong track. They are on the wrong side of history. And that simple idea is prompting many international leaders to rethink their blind participation in the corrupt World Economic Forum.

Mr. Trump's position is not merely an opinion, it is dynamic leadership with an intelligent agenda, nineteen points, he laid out for them in his message. Here are nineteen goals America will now be pursuing as the WEF stagnates in its failure:

President Trump will get rid of 10 regulations for each new regulation

Tariffs, whose amounts are not yet established, will be imposed on foreign goods

Federal tax breaks will be given for companies that make products within the US: he will lower it from 21% to 15% if products are produced in the USA.

He will reduce interest rates and inflation

The US is becoming a merit-based country

He (of course) talked about the border

There are only 2 genders. Transgender surgeries will be rare. Transgender athletes will not compete with women.

The United States is a sovereign country

We are returning to freedom of speech, no misinformation/disinformation labels to suffocate Americans’ free speech

Asks nations to increase their defense spending to 5% from 2% (this was a US request to NATO nations under Biden last fall)

It is time to end the Ukraine war, it is a carnage. He said millions are dying. He wants to talk to Putin soon about this. Hopefully this is an exaggeration.

There will be no support for electric cars. People can buy whatever car they want.

Prolonged delays for project approvals will end

With AI, we will need twice the energy in the US as we use now. (!). He suggests electricity generating plants be built next to AI plants, avoiding need to use the grid.

President Trump spoke about the use of “clean coal.” Does this mean we will use better scrubbers? RF Kennedy sued coal-burning plants for releasing large amounts of mercury into the air, generally harming low income communities where they were located.

President Trump said “debanking” is wrong and told the big banks to stop doing it.

President Trump said we don’t need Canada for wood, for making our cars, etc. He pointed out that essentially everything Canada has, the US has. This presages some tough negotiations on tariffs.

The President said President Xi called him. We have a 1.1 trillion dollar deficit with China that needs to be corrected. Hopefully China can help stop the Ukraine war. We’d like to see denuclearization of our two countries (Russia and the US) and China could come along. President Putin really liked the idea of reducing our nuclear capability. Xi did too.

The Ukraine war should never ever have been started. A lot of stupidity all around. “Far more people have died than is being reported.”

If Pete Hegseth goes into Nigeria Guns-a-Blazing, is his mission to grab the oil?

No. But that will be the fake news of the coming week.

X keeps interesting records of their traffic.
A quick scan of the 4,200 X posts since Trump's threat on Friday shows the phrase "oil grab" appears in:

68 % Russian- or Chinese-language bot farms
19 % Nigerian bandit accounts in the Delta (who fear losing their own pipeline-tapping racket)
13 % U.S. far-left accounts recycling 2003 Iraq memes

Zero citations from Reuters, AP, BBC, Al Jazeera, or the Nigerian Guardian.

When Assimilation is Forbidden by Your Religion of Political Conquest

A few weeks ago, an image went viral. In Belgium a migrant used the eternal flame at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier to cook an omelette. For many, the desecration brought to mind a quote from French author Jean Raspail, written in 1973 in his novel Camp of the Saints, about a sudden invasion of Muslim, Indian and African migrants into France:

“Your universe has no meaning to them. They will not try to understand. They will be tired, they will be cold, they will make a fire with your beautiful oak door.”

Kuyper’s Pastoral Warning on Political Life

“Beware of two errors: despising the world God sustains, or worshipping the culture He restrains.”

— Abraham Kuyper, Common Grace Vol. 1, Ch. 30
