Did the US deep state allow Trump to win?
On election day Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton suggested that the vote count might take days as in 2020, triggering election rigging suspicions among X users. However, Donald Trump was declared the winner the day after the election.
While some American commentators suggested that Trump voter enthusiasm was "too big to rig", others speculated that the vote-rigging mechanisms purportedly in place had been stopped by the ruling elites who reasoned that Trump could be maneuvered into pro-war positions and would be more successful in marshaling public support than Democratic candidate Kamala Harris. According to this argument, the deep state "allowed Trump to win."
"They [the US establishment] need a charismatic, populist firebrand to boost recruitment and spearhead the rush to war. Harris can’t do that. Harris had trouble attracting even a hundred supporters to her rallies," wrote US political commentator Mike Whitney, suggesting Iran could become the next target.
It would be easy to seduce Americans into a new military adventure if they are led by a popular leader, warned former Ronald Reagan official Dr. Paul Craig Roberts on his website.
"MAGA Americans are tired of losing wars," wrote Roberts. "They want to win. The military/security complex will have Trump supporters in the streets waving the flag."
The deep state is entrenched and institutionalized and has many ways to maneuver Trump to its purpose or block his efforts altogether, according to Roberts. Time will tell whether Trump will manage to outplay the establishment.

How International Agreement Could Resolve Economic Imbalances
Connectivity Project by Philip Pilkington
The past few years have been ones in which global conflict has flared up in a manner that is more concerning than at any time since the end of the Second World War. Economists cannot offer solutions to all complex geopolitical problems, but they know that trade imbalances tend to vastly increase tensions between nations and make compromise on these non-economic topics more difficult.
Due to the politics and economic structure of the time, the bancor was shelved in 1944. But due to the changes in the global economic system caused by aggressive globalization, there is a strong case to be made that its time has come. Implementing the bancor solution to world trade could provide a new constructive economic vision for a world economy that currently feels chaotic and unmoored. It could provide the keystone to global governance in the 21st century.

Palantir Just Took Over America’s Food Supply [VIDEO]
Palantir just signed a massive deal with the USDA to take control of America’s food supply data: the company "accelerating killchains" just got the keys to the farm. This is the technocratic takeover of food I've been warning about.
