Oh, my chain doesn't ring at all.
These shoes are too big.
Do you still have these little fingers?
I don't know, I've got all the shoes. No, you're too big, Altras. Altras? Altras, they're different from their feet. With a footwear, a chain box.
Just a lot of leather.
“That's why they take care of their clothes.”
Okay, that's great. More comfort, craft and dynamic. All of them are different. Altras are different from Altras. Altras, stay out there.
China has made its move. President Xi Jinping of China is calling "checkmate against Donald Trump and Donald Trump to dense and too much of a malignant narcissist to perhaps even realize what a cornered rat he is and the destruction and devastation caused to the United States.
I recall the quote from Napoleon Bonaparte, "Never interrupt your enemy when he is making
a mistake. Go back much earlier in history to the day of Confucius."
“Remember the Confucius quote, "A man who has made a mistake and does not correct it is”
making another mistake." But when it comes to Donald Trump, it is failure by design. Donald Trump doesn't care about the national interest of the United States. Donald Trump is a walking, talking, griffed, who has pillaged for himself and has destroyed the national interest of the United States, while China has now asserted itself as the
global hegemon in a rapidly changing, multilateral global world order with the US security architecture being destroyed. In this happened fast, it's the biggest story that should be covered everywhere right now. We are focused on it here at the Midas Touch Network because it ain't being covered in a lot of places especially in the United States.
At the Bricks Summit, that hegemonic status of China was really asserted, but in the context of a multilateral, multipolar world order that China is creating, that China had planned for with the Bricks for some time, but now with Donald Trump's failure by design, the perfect opening for China. So in New Delhi, at the Bricks Summit, you had China, you had G, you had Prime Minister
Modi of India, you had Putin, you had President Pazeskin of Iran, and you had the numerous other entities that form the Bricks block, Xi Jinping stressed the following at the New Delhi Summit. He said that Bricks and all nations across the world must stand firmly on the right side of history and strive to be a pioneer of our times, and he said this is especially the
case when it comes to the Middle East and the rapidly changing global order that we all see as it relates to the Middle East, Xi Jinping was talking about resisting and pushing back against unilateral sanctions and secondary sanctions and wars by the Trump regime and the Netanyahu regime against Iran and against other countries in the area. Xi Jinping said that Bricks should pioneer advancing innovation-driven deployment.
Bricks should be a pioneer in upholding peace and stability. Bricks should be a pioneer in facilitating mutual learning between civilizations. Bricks should be a pioneer in reforming and improving global governance. Now, Xi Jinping saying the things that once upon a time, we used to hear from secretaries of state in the United States, but where the hell is Marco Rubio other than threatening
to invade Cuba or bragging about stealing Venezuela and oil and 65 billion barrels
that are never really going to come to fruition, but it's nice for Donald Trump to further
defraud the American people, but it ain't working while gas prices and diesel prices continue to surge, but you see here on the home front, as Donald Trump's bravado and bluster has been exposed as empty. I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow your house down and nobody actually takes Donald Trump's word seriously anymore. Meaningless empty fraud. China, Xi Jinping just issued a threat to Donald Trump. Hey, Donald, we know how desperate you are for a visit by
“Xi Jinping comes September 24th at the White House. That's what you've been telling everybody.”
Xi Jinping's presence makes you feel powerful to be in the presence of someone like Xi, that's
What Donald Trump has said before.
Xi Jinping bootlicker, but that's what he is. So Xi Jinping just said, here's the reality,
“here's the deal. If you do any arms transfers to Taiwan and the US was expected to do a”
14 billion dollar arms transfer. Xi Jinping said, I will immediately cancel my visit to the
United States. I want guarantees Xi Jinping said that you will not help Taiwan in any way shape or form with any military assistance, or I will cancel this trip to the United States. So Xi Jinping making that threat right there while he was at bricks. Also during a speech at the brick summit, Xi Jinping said, this war, this war by the United States and Israel, this war has caused serious losses to people across the region and does not serve a common interest of the international
community. He went on to say China is willing to mediate and China will step in to try to resolve
“the Trump regime chaos and turmoil that's been caused to the global markets. So now China is stepping”
in in a place where we would once expect the United States to step in trying to unite the world
in a coalition that ultimately is going to change forever. The security architecture in the Middle East.
Now all of these events that are happening across the world are not random. They may feel like how do I keep track of all of these things? But you see they are all very related. As the United States security umbrella falls in the Middle East, in Asia, in Europe, as Donald Trump has lost all credibility not just for himself, but sadly for the United States. A new security architecture globally is forming and we see that being built around China. So on Monday, what's happening in
“Oman in Muscat? There will be a meeting recognizing Iran's control over the straightive for Moose,”
Iran's doing a deal with Oman. Iran's not going to open up the straightive for Moose until the United States complies with its obligations under the MOU, but you will have these Arab nations that are watching Iran and Oman's sign this document. And Iran's saying commerce opens as soon as the United States abides by the MOU, the US gets out of the Middle East, the Netanyahu regime in Israel gets out of Lebanon. We can recognize a Palestinian state, the genocide in Gaza ends,
and let's have a new security architecture in the Middle East. This also presents folks existential risk to monarchies in the region. I mean the Saudi monarchy MBS, MBS is a very Trumpy type of guy and was a perfect mark for Trump. You know, he was the son of the king,
has all of this money, very arrogant, never thought that the Saudi monarchy could possibly
lose in a proxy war to the Houthis in Yemen, but that's precisely what happened to Houthis on Sarala, conquered all or controlled all of Western Yemen, they're moving east to Aiden right now. The Saudi troops are on the run, but the very foundation of the Saudi monarchy right now has been shattered as their power tied to the Trump regime has been demonstrated to be a bit of a paper tiger and a bit of the kind of Trump braggadoshah without the concommonent power associated
with it, and that's being seen now in the region. But China is stepping in and saying we're going to provide a new security architecture, not in a heavy handed way, but we're going to be there, but our main focus right now is going to be reunification with Taiwan, we're focused on Asia, but we're also here to facilitate a newly defined order that pushes the US out. That was the main message coming out of bricks. I mean, I could read for you and I won't all 18,000 words of the
bricks joint declaration, but if I were to summarize it for you, it was a condemnation of Trump and Netanyahu's chaos in the Middle East and a call for resilience and a call for a new structure that stops that from happening in the future, not just puts an end to it in the short term, but stops it long term. So now with the world on the brink, and you know, I obviously don't
Mel Gibson because but I liked the movie Braveheart.
the scene and I, you know, where it was like wait for it, hold, hold, hold, now and then they,
“you know, go back and watch it. You may have no clue what I'm talking about, but the point I'm”
making is China was waiting for this exact moment where the global economies about to crash for it to basically step in, solve the issues, and like the, I'll give you just a number of other movie references, usual suspects, Kaiser so say at the end, kind of walks out, you know, you are Kaiser so say, or at the end of the six cents, you know, you find out who Bruce Willis was in the movie and why the kid was able to see him. Here's the most ridiculous part of my day.
I can spend all morning working, realize it's suddenly two in the afternoon, open the fridge, stare at everything for about 30 seconds, close it, and then I somehow expect there to be better options when I open it again like five minutes later. That's where fuel has become incredibly convenient for me. Fuel black edition powder is a complete meal you have instead of food not a shake on top of food. Black edition powder has 40 grams of protein mixes with water or
“milk in about 30 seconds. You're also getting 27 essential vitamins and minerals, no artificial”
sweeteners, colors, or flavors. And when I'm running out the door, the RTD bottle is the grab and go version. 35 grams of protein, seven grams, five or under five dollars a meal. So instead of realizing I forgot to eat and then grabbing whatever happens to be around, fuel makes the whole thing simple.

and their strategic reserves like 1.5 billion to billion gallons or so barrels of oil to billion
barrels, whereas the U.S. strategic petroleum reserve is less than half of that. But China was using its domestic supply and not importing. And because it was an importing all of this crude, it allowed the supply not to dwindle. And if it just continued to import at the rates it did in 2025, what would you see happening right away? You would have less supply. So the price of crude would go up very dramatically. But China was not importing. They're importing again now. So with
all of these developments, the east, west, oil terminal destroyed, more severely damaged than shut down by Saudi Arabia. The Houthis, Iran, part of Iran's excessive resistance, they controlled
the Babel Mundab straight and the Red Sea. Iran controls the straight of Ramos. Two critical
choke points. The Houthis also saying we could go to Suez Canal. Why do you think Xi Jinping was an Egypt recently as well? Why do you think that he was meeting with Elsisi, where he also talked about a new global architecture without the United States, and a new kind of China centric way of looking at the Middle East. But really he described it more as a Middle East country's asserting their own sovereignty and not being dependent on the unilateral
“imposition of the Petro dollar and US architecture. Why do you think he was also an Egypt?”
These are critical trade choke points right here, right? And so you have all of that taking place.
Now China starts importing again, right? And so what's happening right now? The price goes up up, up, up, up. China holds the bricks meeting right here. Xi Jinping also cleverly says, okay, September's the perfect date for us to do this. Why? Because all of these developments are happening, Xi is now saying, I'm going to withhold showing up unless certain things happen. I will also be willing to mediate what's happening in the straight of Hormuz. And I will mediate
overall the chaos that's been caused by the Trump and Netanyahu regime. China's going to step in, and that folks is how you have a completely new global architecture. And that's what just went down.
I mean, look at Xi Jinping and Modi and Putin.
we just completely, this is how you take down the hegemon. This is, and by the way, rewind the script of this movie. You know, I've been giving him movie references like Braveheart and usual suspects and six cents and others Xi Jinping put it in the script. He talked about the Thucidity's trap. He told it to Donald Trump's face. He told him what we were doing. You know, he basically, you know, imagine it's football. I'm just going to give a lot of examples. We're in
football season. Imagine the QB who's like, I'm going to go that way. I'm going to don't you dare even try to guard my guy. I'm going to throw it to the wide receiver. He's cutting right. And then he
“cut right. Right. That's what Xi Jinping just did. And it was completely out maneuvering Donald Trump”
and Trump. This is why you need intelligent smart people to counteract. These moves that we're being made. But this was Xi Jinping, Iran, Russia, escalating in Ukraine. This was Egypt. I mean, this was, there was a lot of people who were involved in this. A lot of nations that were involved in this. But the essence of it is a new global architecture. And this brick summit is all about that it's essentially an apotheosis to that. It's a celebration of that. Look at Iran's foreign
minister, Iran Qi with China's foreign minister Wang Yi. I mean, they're talking about new banking systems moving away from the petro dollar ending the genocide in Gaza. They're talking
about fair supply chains for critical minerals. They're they're flexing China's control over
rare earths right now. Okay. That's what's that's what's going down right now. And then while all of this is happening, I mean, what's what's Trump been saying? What what's Trump been saying? And by the way, India's critical to this too, they're hosting the brick summit. But Xi Jinping said, China and India are the two countries with the largest populations in the world. And our important members of the global south and plain import role. The two sides will work together
to promote high-quality cooperation and promote a peaceful and stable world and provide more positive energy. Okay. Think about this. If you have that taking place, I'll tell you who gets it, who actually looked a little bit disheveled. Mark Ruttay, the NATO Secretary General,
“usually he kind of, I mean, I think he's a little bit of a comical, deranged kind of guy with his”
Trump bootlicking. I understand why he feels he has to do it. But you see him sweating right now.
I've never seen him look like this. NATO Ruttay said, if China were to move against Taiwan,
what could we do here? Watch this. And there's also the realization, increasingly, both in Europe and the United States, that if China would move against Taiwan or anything in the first island chain, that Xi Jinping will first call his junior partner all of this, which is one of Vladimir Vladimir, which put in a Moscow to keep his busy here. And that means that if death would happen, you would have a situation where you would have a serious problem in both
theatres. In other words, the inner Pacific and Europe are more and more interconnected. That's then Donald Trump, before he went on this island trip, gave this interview with Laura Ingraham, and she was asked, she's not Xi Jinping. She Laura Ingraham was asking him about China spying
on the US and China providing Iran with military intelligence. And here's what Donald Trump said,
you can hear for yourself. Let's play it. They're ruining their cities. I know nothing about it. I know nothing about BYD. I'm the only one that stopped him from coming in. They've destroyed, you know, they're destroying Germany. They're ruining Mercedes. They're ruining BMW. And if you go to Europe, you look at what's going on. It's like an avalanche of Chinese cars. And I'm not knocking Chinese. I'm not knocking Chinese cars. President Xi's coming over to
“have a nice state dinner in two weeks. With a lot of CEO, it's what does he want?”
Well, we get along. You know, he and I get along very well. People say, oh, he spies on us. Well, we spy on him too. You know, we're very good at all. And it also. So we get along. We have a very good relationship. He's coming over in two weeks. It's going to be interesting. You know, the fact that we get along is a good thing. We do very well with China now. We used to do very badly with China, but we do well with China. You know, when Donald Trump's been giving speech
is lately, this is what he says. I want to thank China. I asked China not to get involved in Iran. They listen to me. And it's like, dude, what are you talking about? What world? Why do we have the dumbest guy in office here in the United States? And China knows now is the time. Make the move.
It's why they've done all of these things that I've explained to you.
very short period of time here playing this clip on. For instance, in China, I said, I do that.
“And I want to thank China because to be honest, I asked President Xi not to get involved”
with Iran. And they get 50% of their oil from the straight. But I asked him not to get involved. Then he said he wouldn't. And he didn't. And very nice, actually. And there you have it, everybody.
