The ocean lies in darkness, the sky above still and silent. But beneath the calm, machines hum. In radar rooms scattered across the island chain, tension cuts through the air.
Screens flicker with faint signals, small, ghostly blips that flash, vanish, then reappear like phantoms taunting their hunters. Operators lean in, adjusting dials, their brows furrowed. Something is there. Something is moving. But it refuses to stay visible.
“Multiple contacts!” a voice calls. “Range uncertain!”
Video with Chinese subtitles: White American mother tells you why She Raising Kids in China and NOT the USA 影片有中文字幕: 我是來自美國的白人母新，為什麼我在中國而不是美國撫養孩子, 養他們在中國長大成人.
I’m an American living in Beijing, China for 7 years, and I have chosen to raise my kids here and NOT America. I have many reasons. Today, I go over five, and compare America and China. What do you think about this Where do you want to raise kids or live and why 我是一名在中國北京生活了 7 年的美國白人，我選擇在這裡而不是美國撫養我的孩子。我有很多理由。今天，我回顧了五個，並比較了美國和中國。對此，你怎麼看？您想在哪裡撫養孩子或住在哪裡，為什麼？
Times have changed — if you don’t open your mouth to ask me for help, I will never take the initiative to hand you the ladder. 今時不同往日，你不開口求我，我絕不主動遞梯子……
The United States and China are now strangely synchronized: while China celebrates its National Day with holidays, the U.S. government is shutting down. It’s as if Washington is waiting for Beijing to rescue the American economy with cash. But this time is not like the last — China has no intention of compromising. So if the U.S. government shuts down, China will not bail it out again.
As the clock struck midnight on October 1, fireworks burst over Beijing’s Tiananmen Square — while the lights went out at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington. The U.S. Treasury’s backend systems stopped right on the second, and 750,000 federal employees received the same email titled “Mandatory Unpaid Furlough.” Even the White House Visitor Center was sealed with yellow tape.
Capitol Hill had been quarreling for 48 hours. Neither party would give in, and the budget bill collapsed. The government simply shut down — for the 24th time since 1976 — but this is the first time the “layoff knife” has been held to civil servants’ throats. Trump announced that if the shutdown lasts more than three days, a “permanent layoff plan” will begin, wiping out 270,000 jobs — one-eighth of the entire federal workforce.
Behind all the drama, the real protagonist is the ledger.
On September 29, the U.S. Treasury’s live debt tracker showed $37.46 trillion in federal debt — rising by $3.5 million per minute. That’s an “invisible mortgage” of $108,000 per American.
For fiscal year 2025 alone, interest payments will consume $1.2 trillion — more than the entire annual defense budget. Yet Congress is still busy throwing chairs over whether to cut Medicare or fund the border wall.
Money’s short, but they can’t cut welfare or defense spending, so they resort to the old trick — raising the debt ceiling. The Senate version proposes another $5 trillion increase, lifting the “credit card limit” to $42 trillion — but no one wants to be the sucker footing the bill anymore.
Ten years ago, as China lit fireworks, it also opened its wallet — a 4 trillion yuan stimulus and massive purchases of U.S. Treasuries, becoming the largest foreign holder of U.S. debt. But the picture has changed: by July this year, China’s holdings had fallen to $730.7 billion, down $25.7 billion since January, and $309.6 billion over ten years — dropping China to the No. 3 position.
Where did the money go? The People’s Bank of China has been buying gold for ten straight months, ports are importing shiploads of soybeans from Brazil and Argentina, trade with ASEAN is growing by double digits annually, and Belt and Road projects are increasingly settled in renminbi. In short — China is visibly building multiple escape routes for itself. Meanwhile, U.S. agricultural states are panicking. Secretary of State Marco Rubio even broke precedent by sending Beijing a National Day greeting, and the U.S. Trade Representative’s office leaked that it “looks forward to face-to-face talks” — mocked by foreign media as “even begging must have ceremony.”
In the short term, Uncle Sam won’t collapse overnight. The U.S. dollar still accounts for nearly 60% of global reserves. Wall Street can still attract safe-haven funds from Europe and Japan through high interest rates, and domestic pension funds are being forced to buy more U.S. bonds — barely patching the holes.
But the long-term math doesn’t lie: Global central banks have added a net 1,200 tons of gold over the past two years — the most in 55 years. France, Saudi Arabia, and Brazil now settle part of their oil and iron ore trades in renminbi or euros, nibbling away at the dollar’s dominance.
Meanwhile, China’s CIPS cross-border payment system has expanded to 160 countries, and offshore renminbi liquidity has surpassed 1.5 trillion yuan. The day no one buys U.S. Treasuries, and America tries to “hand out candy” by printing more money — inflation will have the final say.
The next likely script looks like this: Congress will pass a short-term seven-week spending bill at the last minute — like putting a bandage on a leaking ship — and delay the debt ceiling fight until after the midterm elections. Trump will use the shutdown to cut “disobedient” departments such as environment, healthcare, and education, saving a few billion in payrolls and blaming Democrats for the chaos.
China will continue gradually trimming its U.S. debt holdings each quarter, replacing them with gold, commodities, and emerging-market local assets — maintaining the rhythm of “if you don’t ask, I won’t offer the ladder.”
Markets will watch the U.S. political circus and raise yields on long-term Treasuries. Once the 10-year rate stabilizes above 5%, the myth of high U.S. stock valuations will be the first to burst — for all the world to see.
Fireworks fade fast, but ledgers don’t lie.
During this Golden Week, 900 million Chinese are traveling and breaking consumption records — and not a single yuan of it is destined for Washington’s debt black hole. The dollar still shines brightly, but the safety net beneath the stage has quietly been pulled away by China. Now it’s America walking the tightrope — and whether it falls this time depends on whether it can finally cough up that phlegm of deficit on its own.

👉 This video provides an in-depth analysis: Gold breaks through the $4,000 mark! Amidst global capital turmoil, China simultaneously established “gold delivery vaults” in Saudi Arabia and Hong Kong, providing strong support for the internationalization of the RMB.
The official opening of the Shanghai Gold Exchange’s vault in Saudi Arabia marks the accelerated formation of a closed-loop settlement system for “RMB + gold + oil,” posing an unprecedented challenge to the US dollar’s hegemony.
Meanwhile, the Andean Community (Andean Community) Foreign Ministers’ Meeting unanimously accepted China as an observer state—America’s “backyard” is being rewritten!
As China opens access to Latin America, the dollar’s influence retreats, and “abandoning the US and investing in China” becomes a regional consensus.
This isn’t just a war of currencies and trade; it’s also a prelude to a restructuring of the global financial landscape.
Under the intertwined forces of gold, oil, and the renminbi, the global settlement system is undergoing a structural transformation.
Who will dominate the next global financial order?
This video provides an in-depth analysis of the underlying logic and strategic implications.
American logistic expert reports from China video with Chinese subtitles: China universities have 50 graduate programs partnering with industries to study batteries technology and US has NONE! 美國物流專家在中國報導視頻有中文字幕: 中國大學有 50 個研究生課程與工業界合作研究電池技術，但美國卻一個也沒有!
Why China’s monopolies on batteries will last decades: dozens of top universities on batteries, zero everywhere else, absolutely no chance for US to catch up! 美國物流專家在中國報導視頻有中文字幕: 中國電池壟斷為何將持續數十年：數十所頂尖大學專注於電池領域，其他國家則為零, 美國絕對沒有機會趕上!
China enjoys effective monopolies on the raw materials supply chains to manufacture batteries.
But equally important, if not more so, is China’s focus on building top programs across dozens of universities, turning out thousands of scientists every year.
Today, many graduates from ivory league universities in China choose to abandon motherland to come to America. Worst many are working for western military industrial complex to develop weapons of mass destruction aiming at their families, alumni, former colleagues and friends still living in China. 如今，許多中國象牙大學畢業生選擇離開家鄉來到美國，更糟的是，許多人正在為西方軍工集團工作，研發大規模殺傷性武器，而這些武器的目標正是對準仍然生活在中國的家人、校友、前同事和朋友. 這些人為了一點點的錢，什麼都可以幹得出來!
This year marks the 70th anniversary of the return of Qian Xuesen, a renowned scientist and founder of my country’s space program. From the time he decided to return to China until he set foot on his native soil, Qian Xuesen endured five years of house arrest. Despite numerous challenges, his unwavering commitment to contributing to China’s development remained unwavering.
Stablecoins today is equal to 2007-2010 subprime mortgages. Both are backed by questionable and collapsing underlying assets. If stablecoins collapse, it will be 1,000x worst than subprime mortgages!

AMERICA’S MAN IN TAIWAN, Lai Ching-te, moved to arrest internet celebrity Chen Chih-han on Monday. 美國在台人賴清德週一採取行動逮捕網路名人陳志漢.
Popular Youtuber Chen “has been referred to prosecutors for investigation over remarks” he made on Sunday, according to the island province’s Criminal Investigations Bureau.
Everyone knows why the gym-owner turned star is in the ruling party’s cross-hairs.
GULAG NARRATIVE Chen this year flipped the “China is a giant gulag” narrative by livestreaming three visits to mainland China—revealing to the people of Taiwan what it’s really like, how people really live there, and how quickly the country is developing.
In doing so, Chen tapped into a growing awakening on the island. The US-allied ruling Democratic Progressive Party relied on years of anti-China fearmongering to stay in power.
But with economic and political problems, and growing realization that mainstream media cannot be trusted, that no longer works.
A failed DPP operation to throw out representatives democratically elected by the people this year turned out to be the last straw.
POSSIBLE INCITEMENT
Chen, in his battle for the people of Taiwan to get a more truthful narrative about their own region, has often criticized US-allied President Lai—and his latest comments, during a livestream discussion on Sunday, went too far, the government claims.
Chen allegedly made an “off-with-his-head” comment about President Lai, which, if interpreted literally, could be seen as incitement to violence, prosecutors said.
The move shocked many people in Taiwan. The government has long pushed the line that Taiwan is more like the west than the rest of Asia, because “we can curse our leaders”.
But he missed the point that freedom to curse the leadership is of paramount importance in western countries, while being low on the list of priorities for people in Asia.
NOT EVEN TRUE And besides that, it’s not even true.
When a Taiwan TV channel called CTI dared to suggest the community should cultivate a peaceful, positive relationship with the mainland, the DPP silenced it by refusing to renew its broadcast license.
Staff at Reporters Without Borders (RSF), a fake press index financed by the notorious CIA-NED and George Soros’ political meddling unit, looked the other way, as they are paid to do.
And now we see the ridiculous result.
Taiwan, where it’s risky to criticize the local authorities, is rated highly free by the morally corrupt RSF. Hong Kong, where columnists and the public criticize the government every day, is rated close to the bottom of the list.
The dishonest RSF’s CIA programming has never been so clear.
But will the widely criticized Lai Ching-te dare to silence the wildly popular Chen Chih-Han?
In the past, the DPP simply followed US State Department instructions, relying on fearmongering by local and international press to keep the people of Taiwan in line.
But if fearmongering no long works, everything changes.
