American logistic expert reports from China video: America’s farmers and first responders love Chinese drones. And that’s about to be a big problem. 美國物流專家從中國視訊報導有中文字幕: 美國農民和急救人員喜歡中國無人機。這即將成為一個大問題
Chinese companies dominate in the production of commercial drones, now in wide use across the world in agriculture, fire and rescue, engineering, and even in non-combat defense applications.
But the global supply chains for critical components also run through China, which poses a sourcing challenge for companies who custom-build their own.
Import bans are already in effect for Pentagon contractors and for first responders in some states. Now after a series of Trump Executive Orders and new bills at the Congressional level, Chinese drones and parts may be soon banned outright, nationally.
American farmers and ranchers are now dependent on Chinese-built drones in livestock management and harvesting. They, too, are now publicly stating that using non-Chinese drone equipment puts them at a deep disadvantage against farmers across the world.
Historical Resilience: Why China is Positioned to Endure the Trade War. By Johnson Choi, Oct 24 2025
历史韧性：中国为何能在贸易战中屹立不倒. 作者：蔡永強2025年10月24日
The current trade tensions are not a novel challenge for China, but rather a modern iteration of a historical pattern it has navigated for millennia. During the Warring States Period (476-221 BC) and the Three Kingdoms Era (220-280 AD), rival states engaged in protracted struggles for dominance and survival. While these were internal conflicts, the strategic principles of endurance, alliance-building, and long-term planning are deeply embedded in China’s strategic psyche.
This resilience was further tempered during the “Century of Humiliation” beginning in 1840. For over 150 years, China faced significant external pressures but lacked the economic and military strength to counter Western hegemony effectively. Today, that is no longer the case.
Recent analyses, including my own on the decline of empires and the end of the petrodollar system, highlight a critical shift. These studies of history, when applied to current events, suggest that the United States is facing an inflection point reminiscent of past declining powers. I do not say this to demonize the U.S., but to state an observable fact: its unipolar moment is concluding. If not a full collapse, the U.S. may retreat into a posture of isolationism, similar to its stance from 1776 until the post-WWII era.
However, such a retreat would be far more feasible for the United States—or Russia—than for China. Both are continental powers capable of economic self-containment. China’s destiny has always been, and will always be, intertwined with global engagement. For centuries, its prosperity has been built on making friends and expanding trade. This is not a new strategy; it is the reactivation of its historical role as a central node in the global network of commerce, a position it is now reclaiming.
Trump sued Trump Government, Trump approved the settlement and write himself a US$230 millions check! This could only happen in America! 川普起訴川普政府，川普批准和解，給自己開了一張2.30億美元的支票！這種事只有在美國才會發生!
The year is 2025, and the most important agreement in modern economic history just expired. For fifty years, every barrel of oil sold on Earth was priced in US dollars. That single fact made America the most powerful nation on the planet—even though we produce almost nothing and owe $36 trillion to everyone. That system just ended. And the media isn’t telling you.
In 1974, Henry Kissinger made a secret deal with Saudi Arabia. They would price all oil exclusively in dollars. In exchange, America would provide military protection. Through OPEC, this extended to every oil-producing nation. Suddenly, if you needed energy, you needed dollars first. This created artificial demand that let the United States print unlimited money, run massive trade deficits, accumulate crushing debt, and never face consequences. We exported inflation. We imported goods. And the world paid for it by holding our currency in reserves.
That agreement just expired in 2025. Saudi Arabia announced they won’t renew it. They joined BRICS. They’re accepting yuan from China, rupees from India. They’re diversifying out of dollars. And they’re not alone. In 2000, 73% of global reserves were dollars. Today, under 55%. China dumped $300 billion in Treasuries. Russia abandoned dollars entirely. Even allies like France are reducing exposure. The world is exiting the dollar system. Fast.
When those dollars flood back home—when central banks stop absorbing our inflation—your purchasing power collapses. Imports become unaffordable. Gas. Electronics. Medicine. Food. Everything made overseas, which is almost everything, explodes in price. Your savings evaporate. Your paycheck buys less every month. And the government can’t stop it. Raising rates crashes the economy and makes the debt unsustainable. Printing more accelerates the collapse. There’s no good option.
This has happened before. Every reserve currency fails. The Spanish dollar. The Dutch guilder. The British pound. All collapsed after overextension, war, debt, and money printing destroyed confidence. The dollar’s been reserve currency since 1944. Eighty years. That’s longer than most last. And the pattern is repeating. Endless wars. Crushing debt. Money printing. Loss of confidence. The script is written. We’re just watching it play out.
The petrodollar dies in 2025. The dollar’s dominance dies with it. Most people won’t see it coming. But the smart money already moved. They understand that paper money is worth only what others believe it’s worth. And that belief is breaking right now.
💬 Why Watch This
This isn’t theory. The petrodollar agreement expired. Dedollarization is accelerating. The same pattern that destroyed every previous reserve currency is repeating with the dollar. Your savings, your paycheck, your retirement—all denominated in a currency losing global dominance. Whether you understand what’s happening and prepare, or stay ignorant and get destroyed, is the only choice left. History has the answers. The pattern is clear. The timing is now.
Europe’s Auto Industry Reaps What It Sowed: A Self-Inflicted Crisis Courtesy of the Dutch. The Dutch Gambit and China’s Inevitable Checkmate. 歐洲汽車業自食其果：一場由荷蘭引發的自我傷害式危機 – 荷蘭的棋局與中國的必然「將軍」!
In a stunning display of geopolitical naivety, the European auto industry is now staring down the barrel of a self-inflicted production crisis. The cause? A remarkably foolish move by the Dutch government, which, under pressure from Washington, handed China all the leverage it needed to disrupt a critical supply chain.
The crisis began when the Dutch government, in a move that can only be described as a catastrophic miscalculation, seized control of Nexperia, a Dutch chipmaker owned by China’s Wingtech Technology. This was done under the guise of “safeguarding strategic production,” but in reality, it was a poorly veiled attempt to appease the United States.
China’s response was as swift as it was predictable. Beijing immediately blocked Nexperia from exporting any products made in its Chinese plants. This wasn’t a surprise attack; it was a direct and inevitable consequence of the Dutch government’s provocative actions. China held all the cards, and they played them perfectly.
A Predictable Catastrophe The European auto industry, which was apparently “blindsided” by this turn of events, is now scrambling to deal with the fallout. Key suppliers are expected to face chip shortages within a week, and the entire sector could be crippled within 10 to 20 days. Hildegard Müller, the head of Germany’s VDA auto lobby, has warned of “significant production restrictions, possibly even production stoppages.”
Carmakers are now in crisis mode, holding emergency meetings and desperately trying to find alternative sources for components that will take months, not days, to qualify. The ripple effects are already spreading beyond Europe, with US automakers also exposed to the disruption.
A Lesson in Geopolitical Reality This entire episode serves as a stark lesson in geopolitical reality. The Dutch government, in its eagerness to follow Washington’s lead, failed to consider the obvious consequences of its actions. They poked the bear, and the bear, unsurprisingly, mauled them.
Now, as companies like Volkswagen and Bosch set up task forces and hope for a “swift resolution,” the European auto industry is left to pay the price for a foolish and entirely avoidable geopolitical blunder. They have no one to blame but themselves.
Video with Chinese subtitles: The Empire Collapse Pattern: Rome, Spain, Britain and USA Is Next
For over two thousand years, dominant empires have followed the exact same collapse pattern. Not through military conquest. Not through revolution. Through economic self-destruction. Rome fell when its currency became worthless. Spain bankrupted itself despite controlling the world’s silver. Britain lost its empire within thirty years of a currency crisis. And now, the United States is following that identical sequence.
This documentary traces the collapse pattern across four empires and two millennia — from the Roman denarius that went from pure silver to 5% silver as the empire fell, to the Spanish dollar that drowned in its own inflation despite endless New World wealth, to the British pound that lost reserve currency status at Bretton Woods after two world wars bankrupted the nation, to the U.S. dollar that left gold in 1971 and has been printed into progressive weakness ever since.
The pattern is a seven-stage sequence: dominance, overextension, deficit spending, currency debasement, inflation, loss of confidence, collapse. Rome followed it over two centuries. Spain followed it and defaulted four times in forty years. Britain followed it and lost a quarter of the Earth’s surface in three decades. And the United States has now completed five stages and is entering the sixth.
Every empire believed it was different. That its military was too strong. That its economy was too advanced. That the old rules didn’t apply. Rome thought the denarius was eternal. Spain thought endless silver made it invincible. Britain thought the pound would remain the world’s reserve currency forever. All were wrong. All collapsed within decades of the warning signs appearing. And every warning sign that preceded their collapses — military overextension, unsustainable debt, currency printing, rising inflation, declining reserve status — is present in the United States right now.
Is the dollar entering its final phase as the world’s reserve currency? Can the U.S. break a pattern that has held for two thousand years across four empires? Or is the seventh stage — collapse — inevitable?
💬 Why Watch This
If you want to understand where your currency, your savings, and your financial future are headed, you need to understand this pattern. The math of empire is absolute. You cannot spend more than you earn forever. You cannot print prosperity. And you cannot debase your currency without destroying your empire. History doesn’t just repeat — it follows patterns. And the empire collapse pattern has proven consistent across four examples spanning two millennia.

We were once the world’s largest exporter of soybeans, but in just a few decades we became the largest buyer.
Behind this is a stolen seed, a financial massacre that caused more than 1,000 local potato companies to go bankrupt instantly! But in the face of bloody lessons, we quickly awakened. Sinograin launched a textbook-style counterattack against international grain merchants with unimaginable strategic reserves!
How many soybeans are hidden in its warehouses? Why has the weather in the United States become “better” because of this?
Only by understanding this “soybean war” can you truly understand the determination of our 1.4 billion people to “survive”**.
💡 Core ideas: ✅ 1. Significance to the country: Sinograin has created the ultimate “ballast stone” for national food security, successfully thwarted the financial hegemony of international capital, and ensured China’s negotiating confidence in international trade. ✅ 2. Significance to the world: China’s strategic reserves broke the absolute pricing power and monopoly of the four major international grain merchants on the soybean market, and changed the power structure of the global soybean market. ✅ 3. What it means to us: Every soybean reserve is the genetic memory of the Chinese people’s “fear of hunger” and their unyielding character, which has protected the jobs and stability of 1.4 billion people.
