    We are in for a slew of schemes both inside and outside of government to create an utterly devastating economic & geopolitical situation for the Biden admin to be in and it's all for one purpose which is for trying to have a pissed off American voter base in 2022 and 2024, and somehow that leads to Republicans taking back the House, and winning absolute power in 2024.

    I would guess that this "Trucker Strike" was likely influenced through Facebook by Republican groups, or laundered through their partners in Russia, or North Korea... who are basically interchangeable with the modern day Republican/Trump party. There is no daylight between those hostile foreign powers and the Republican party anymore which is really freaking depressing.

    During the interview, Rewoldt discussed how the administrative team he had assembled had ultimately fractured over disagreements about the purpose of the group. Rewoldt favored a work stoppage only, with no action taken that might harm trucking’s image, such as slowing or blocking traffic and not interfering with shipments of medical supplies.

    Rewoldt also posted his request on the Stop the Tires 2020 page, saying, “When this group was made the intentions were to talk and BS amongst a few, if not a couple hundred, people, my friends and others included. What I though was going to be a few hundred turned into 75K people who I now had to voice for.”

    I will give this guy credit for being self aware.

    Yep. The anti-Obama playbook v2. Stop everything. Blame everything on Obama. Now (given that Trump has endured 99% righteous but continuous criticism) they'll add: well y'all whined about Trump so it's only fair! (even though Biden won't be violating several segments of the constitution every month. Oh well.

    We're a solid 5-10 "business as usual" years away from the dollar being up ended as the reserve currency. Even if it becomes a basket of currencies, a lot of the schemes we do to pump the economy won't be as effective or tolerated.

    Ofc, no one really gives a **** until their money becomes grossly inflated or jerbs move to Asia.

    Yeah and that Trucker has no clue how his Facebook page gained that much traction that quick I'm sure which is why through various ways that Facebook is used by these groups to manufacture views & traffic, Facebook groups like this are harvested to look organic and home grown, but in reality are just political tools to sew chaos & economic crisis abroad. I would guess that those 75K people didn't just happen to stumble on this group... it was likely blasted out to everyone that looked like a sucker for this type of crap.
