Don't dismiss the role of the Chinese Communist Party in these events. If there's one thing we now have hard evidence of, it is that the CCP controls the Biden family. We in the US are so used to the idea of the US Deep State running puppet regimes in countless countries that it takes some re-thinking to realize that the same tool can be - and is now being - used on our own leadership by a foreign power. This does not absolve the US deep state. They are despicable and completely corrupt. But they are now so corrupt that they are no longer even in control. They have - without even realizing what they have done - given the true control (which lies in the capacity for production of the tools used to maintain a functional society) to the CCP, an organization even more corrupt than they! The CCP now has what they need to run the US through our corrupted elites. It is indeed a big club, and no surprise, we still ain't in it...
