The CCP is a prime power. There is no check on CCP power.

Pirate billionaires have power but they are not prime powers. The proof is that
they bent the knee to the CCP. This is baffling because the pirate billionaires
like to destroy rival powers. The way to oppose the CCP is to support American
politicians that are anti-CCP. All democrats are pro-CCP and so you need to
support republicans.

Many wars are over markets. The CCP's power is their control over the Chinese market. Quite evil because China is an apartheid state, with the CCP exploiting the non-CCP Chinese.

If you have compromising information on a politician, you have power over him.
There is plenty of well-known kompromat on Biden but the mainstream media
doesn't report it. Media oligarchs can extort Biden by threating to report it.
I hypothesize that the media oligarchs are extorting Biden.

Honor is power. An example of honor for politicians is having the reputation
for faithfully representing the constituency. Representationship is a high
skill. Trump has this power.

Democrats think that once they win an election that they can do whatever they want, forgetting
that there will be another election. Now that elections are meaningless they will never again
act in the interests of the voters.

Musk has power because he's in the business of creating stuff, whereas
corporations like Amazon make money by manipulating the industry. Musk launches
twice as much mass into space as NASA and he has the best launch cost in the world in terms
of $/kg. Space is power and Musk has space power.

Musk ditched California for Texas and courageously denounces censorship. Musk
might be our only hope.

The FAA canceled a SpaceX launch. They have that power, which means they can use it to
extort SpaceX. Scary.

In "The Art of the Deal", Trump describes how politicians extorted him with regulations.

The left wants to take away Trump's power by framing him as a Nazi. This gives
Trump more power because it increases his status with republicans. Trump is the Second
Coming of Jesus Christ. Trump took on suffering to fight for us.

Now that Obama is term limited, the only power he has is as a collusion nexus.
To collude, you need a nexus. The Clinton Foundation was a collusion nexus.

Intelligence is power, specifically the ability to think of useful new ideas.
This is absent in the democratic party. Nothing they do is intelligent. Trump
is unquestionably original. Gingrich stated that Trump solved problems that he didn't
think could be solved.

Independence is power as long as you aren't under threat of invasion.
It feels like the only way forward is for states to declare independence.

Democrats feel that they have the military power to crush a seceded state.
I don't think so. That doesn't work anywhere in the world because the world mastered
asymmetric warfare. Plus, America has courageous patriots.

The check on the CCP is the nations that oppose it: Japan, India, Australia, Taiwan, etc.

Americans once understood the important of checks on power. They built it into
the constitution and they tended to vote against a party that got too
powerful. Democrats forgot this fine sentiment.

F. Roosevelt held massive power. Democrats held the house and senate. Roosevelt attempted
to stack the court, but the voters rejected it and democrats lost seats in the house and senate.

China can be opposed with a trade war, but the war has to be total. Total embargo.

Political appointments are power. A fundamental difference between demcorats and republicans is that democrats favor big government so that can have appointment power. Republicans can virtue signal that they abstain from this power.

The ultimate power is Washington power, to possess absolute power and to gracefully walk away. Honor is power, and Washington possess honor.

The presidents that pledged to serve 1 term and honored their pledge are Polk and Hayes. This is power.

Power should rest with elected officials, not appointed officials. Hence public officials shouldn't be allowed to strike, and Reagan reminded us of this by firing the striking air traffic controllers. Today, public school teachers strike with impunity.

The ability to indoctrinate children is power. Shame on the teacher's unions for using their privilege as teachers to indoctrinate children.

Teacher's unions oppose private school vouchers because it obstructs their power.

Obama is the main character here. He tells Biden what to do and a lot of the old gang form the Obama Administration are back preserving the Obama legacy. He is beloved of the MSM and the entertainment community and has never been held to account for his many scandals that, according to him, never existed. He doesn't openly crush his adversaries but gets his allies in the media to do the dirty work. He knows the crimes of the intelligence community and uses that to keep them in line. Unfortunately, he wishes to establish a one world government through claiming it is necessary to act globally to solve global problems like climate change and overpopulation. The science community has achieved celebrity and government grants encourage them to find the science to back the proof of these problems.

It is an easy thing to believe there are too many people in the world and that fact alone is destroying the planet, with pollution, resource depletion, unsustainable development, species extinctions, unjust wealth distribution, etc. The elite see it as there being too many stupid people around because they are easy to fool. Social media panders to their customers first by using them as products and then starts engineering what they should think.

So the big question is will the CCP be a problem to them in the future? Or is there a plan to take out command central in China. These guys are going ahead with their plans without the support of the people because they don't care about people.

Part of the power rests with the pirate billionaires. Is there anyone else that has real power?

Jeff Bezos
Zuckerberg
George Soros
Larry Page
Sergei Brin
Bill Gates
Michael Bloomberg
Charles Koch
Phil Knight
Carl Icahn
George Lucas
Steven Spielberg

That's the million-dollar question in my mind. But I agree he's not the one calling the shots. In another post, I made a wisecrack about Obama sliding papers under Joe's mindless signature, but I have no idea who might be orchestrating things. Probably not just one person
