One common thread I see is that in the USA, Russia-Ukraine and China, oligarchs are under existential pressure.

They seem to be using all the tools at their disposal to create what at first appears to be global instability, but if one looks closer, that instability is actually the outward and visible signs of resistance by the ordinary citizen.... the obsession of the IMF and Davos for creating "order out of chaos" is a thin veil for this.

All their "global initiatives" (climate, finance, "democracy", central bank digital currency etc) are all devices to subjugate the masses, while they claim to be fighting for them.

Don't forget that 'instability' in the form of major wars is one of, and perhaps the key, means by which [they] have grabbed and held on to power and wealth. 'Instability' is also a tool to get the ordinary citizens to be open to power grabs which otherwise would be rejected. The Patriot Act in the USA, for instance.

That said, I too believe that [they] are under pressure. The existence of substack and numerous other alt-media outlets these days has allowed a plurality of viewpoints, across the spectrum, in place of the oligopolistic MSM. These viewpoints include quite a few that are shining light on the [cockroaches] as they scurry away, trying to hide. But [their] game is running out, the number of moves they have limited. (It is no wonder that Big Tech tries so hard to control the message.)

In such times, [they] make mistakes. And in so doing, [they] get exposed. While [they] are still powerful, they do not have the sort of unchallenged power they had back in the good old days (for [them]) of the Cold War and the times leading up to it. [Their] position on the board is weakening, as more and more Normies get red-pilled and wake up to what has been happening in [their] 'democracies.' [They] cannot function when the rest of us know what's going on. Yes, because knowledge represents power, or is at least the gateway to it, the oligarchs are under existential pressure. [They] can only function if we support them, or at the least tolerate them and ignore what they are doing. We stop doing that once we know what [they] are up to; [their] era, thankfully, is coming to an end, and we have Burning Bright and other like-minded patriots to thank, in good measure, for that fact.

Agreed. They're under immense pressure, and pressure provokes mistakes.

The biggest pressure is from their Babylonian debt-money magic machine breaking down. In the past, they usually covered this with a war. They're trying like hell, but Putin just won't give them the war they want.

Outside the US, the existence of clandestine bioweapons labs has been revealed. You don't see it in the West for obvious reasons, but Russia made the case, and the leaders of the West's credibility is shot.

The Oligarchs had hoped to destroy the West and go to China, setting themselves up to rule from there. Except Xi decided to screw them, and now they have nowhere to go.

What we are seeing is elite faction defection, where a number of them decided they didn't want to go along with whoever's backing Klaus Shwab (hard to live high on the hog when 6 out of 7 people have been killed and you can't get your yacht crewed or serviced).

After this is over, we're going to go through a rough period while we rebuild, but we'll have an unprecedented opportunity to craft a world that truly supports human flourishing.

You mentioned before that you would soon be addressing the China part of the Globalist vs Sovereign Nations part of the equation. I have been looking forward to it…and here we are!

Has the enigmatic Xi stealthily just struck at the underbelly of the globalists petrodollar stranglehold on the world?

(I’ve been distracted by the elections and am not sure if this has already happened?)

“Trump’s trade war is not just a means of reducing our dependency and reliance on China, but on their reliance on us, the picture starts to become much clearer.”

Love that summary all in one sentence.

And that reliance on each other was really a reliance on the Global cabal.

As time goes on, The Plan is slowly revealed in all its brilliance.

Looking forward to your thinking and insight on China and Xi.

Thank You!!!

Dear BB! I love your intellect and your insight- I read your posts faithfully. The only problem I have is to try to follow your very long sentences to its conclusions. I have to read and re- read them several times to make sure I grasped the context. I’m a naturalized citizen and been a proud American for 35 years. Maybe for that reason I struggle. I must say reading is my passion though and I seldom have problems like that. Please don’t take it as a criticism - I used to do the exact thing in my native language! I remember my high school teacher telling me to shorten my sentences all the time😂😂

With that being said, I am immensely enjoying your perspectives on various topics, I listen to your interviews, and I think that your are a very valuable asset in our MAGA movement. God bless you!!!

I chalk it up, in myself, to how easily distracted my mind has become, living in an age where time seems to be speeding up! I love the sometimes long sentences because it helps me discipline my attention. Good brain exercise as I get older ; )

Very good read & makes you think! 💭! Please help my mind get grounded! Imma hearin Arvil Lavigne’s lyrics: “...Why did you have to go make things so complicated...?” 😂 And this political maelstrom reminds me of Odysseus’s dilemma of being stuck “between Scylla & Charybdis.” To the textbooks! 📚 Tis written, that Xi Jinping has held “core” leader status since 2016, & from what I’ve read, is an honor bestowed only on Mao Zedong & Deng Xiaoping. Interestingly, in 1975, Xi studied chemical engineering @ Beijing’s Tsinghua U. (Doesn’t Xi exert some power over the WHO)??

Earlier this yr while praying over the world’s presidents & P/M’s, I’ve tried to make short bios in my journal of global leaders who pose, (& nations that pose a direct) threat to Israel. In my notes, (according to Britannica.com), one of Xi’s 1st initiatives was an anti-corruption campaign & he removed 1,000’s of high/low officials (“tigers & flies”). Personally, he kinda reminds me of Genghis Kahn--(or else the global regime trying to exterminate most of humanity do). Britannica.com noted that in 2017, over 1 million corrupt officials were punished/removed, many were Xi’s political rivals, & thus eliminated dissent leaving himself much muscle to flex.💪 Within this online source, I read that he called for adherence to the Chinese constitution & professionalization of the judiciary to develop “socialism w/Chinese characteristics.” But what does that mean? What is Xi’s worldview of justice? Who was Xi’s father, & what role did he play in the CCP? Furthermore, what kind of influence did he leave on Xi Jinping? Is Xi a black hat, white, hat, or both? Is this geo-political drama a “Face Off”? It’d be nice if we had Sauron’s palantir to reveal the nature & the intentions behind these world leaders. But this isn’t a movie, or is it? As for Putin? I’m pro-Putin, believing that he’s presently a good guy, exposing sinister darkness of a shadow gov; & hopefully all the “stalwarts of evil” you mentioned above. Prayerfully, the curtains of crime will be pulled back, as far back as Lincoln. I sure wish the oligarchs & media tycoon’s power would come crashing down! Doesn’t Putin have experience in that? - Thanks for all the hard-core research, BB, you & all your comrades @ Badlands Media! ♥️

These are all the questions that both drive us with interest and drive us insane.

This is also why I tend to focus on the narratives advanced by the Media Industrial Complex. Them being frightened by Xi and lumping him in with DJT and Putin is what initially piqued my interest.

Very well written sir. Thank you for provoking my mind. I would like to persuade you to look at a very different somewhat persecuted and deemed antiquated by many but relevant to now, from an apocalyptic biblical standpoint, these said oligarchs and “kings” are vying for their position in the next stage of world domination and all want their cake. The push for crypto currency and one currency to rule them all reminds of the very rings of Tolkien and his writings. The prophetic message of the cross cannot be undone, removed from society all the more to not be heard but to one’s watching the world unfold it comes as no surprise to us believers to the times we are living in. Since 1948 have we lived in such a time as close to Revelations as this and His story continues.

Well thought out...Thank You as always. I have considered Xi as a sort of "Berlin Wall" coming down for some time and also obviously came to the conclusion it will take some time to have positive effect long term but truly believe that it will. Looking forward to your next update.

Once again, you’ve provided us a concise description of what is happening behind the scenes! During the last year particularly, I have begun to completely reassess what the previous leaders we (US DS) destroyed in the Middle East over the past 20 years or so. So, I had already wondered what the real relationship between Trump and the Eastern leaders was/is. I also had determined that whenever the media complex began a coordinated attack on someone, it was likely good for individual freedoms. Your articles have really helped most of us (according to the comments) discern better. We are so thankful for you! As for the sentences, I’ve been a reader my whole life, but do have to reread on occasion. For so many years, the public print media was been so juvenile; it’s taking us a while to up our reading game and that’s a good thing! Challenges make us grow!

God bless you, BB! I can’t wait for your articles next week!

That is correct, however, IMHO, when it comes to communication, sharpening or modifying the tolls in the toolbox would allow to reach broader audience - including large flocks of patriotic emigrants who may have similar concern. We all have plenty of room to strive for excellence- writers and readers alike.

I will continue reading BB’s posts because I love hearing from him. I don’t mind stretching my brain in the process, despite of the challenge. I need it - I’m getting old ! But thank you for the conversation, I hope I didnt offend anybody 🙏❤️🌺 love and WWG1WGA!

This hopeful presentation makes so much sense. I hate the sabre-rattling of American neo-Conservatism, pretending to be MAGA. Trump seems very much in the line of Lincoln, FDR and Kennedy, in multipolarism, a wonderful era birthing. Matt Ehret covers this in much detail, supports this view of Trump, but without the hope of Devolution. We need the whole package.

Xi’s youth was interrupted when his father was sent to the farms, during the cultural revolution. His father was a member of Mao’s inner circle.

On the farm, he read a great deal, was digging ditches, and introduced to buddhism.

I believe he has a spiritual side to explore.
