 Is the US Pivoting to WAR in Latin America? | Ben Norton 🚨 Is the supposed "detente" between the US and China just a tactical pause before a bigger confrontation? And why is the Trump administration suddenly cranking up aggression towards Venezuela to eleven? In this dense and urgent episode of the Silk and Steel podcast, Carl Zha is joined by journalist and geopolitical analyst Ben Norton to dissect the shifting strategies of the US empire. They break down the reality behind the "decoupling" narrative, the new Cold War against China, and the alarming escalation in Latin America that could plunge the region into chaos. 👇 LINKS & RESOURCES MENTIONED 👇 Ben Norton's Website: Geopolitical Economy Report [Article] The US plan to develop a new supply chain for critical minerals: (Search on Geopolitical Economy Report) [Article] US military strikes in the Caribbean & Venezuela strategy: (Search on Geopolitical Economy Report) 💡 KEY TAKEAWAYS 💡 No Detente, Just a Strategy Shift: Ben argues there is no genuine detente with China, but a short-term de-escalation to allow the US to "decouple" its economy and prepare for more severe medium-to-long-term confrontation. Decoupling is for Escalation: The US push to decouple from China is not about economics, but about minimizing blowback to the US when it imposes even harsher sanctions in the future, akin to those on Russia. Tech War is Protectionism: Tariffs on Chinese EVs (like BYD) and attempts to ban AI models (like DeepSeek) are not about national security but about protecting uncompetitive US tech giants (like Tesla and OpenAI) from superior, cheaper Chinese products. Latin America is the New Front: With direct confrontation with China too risky, the US is pivoting to solidify hegemony in its "backyard" (the Monroe Doctrine), targeting China's allies and partners to isolate it. Venezuela is the Immediate Target: The US is using a fabricated "drug cartel" narrative (similar to the WMD lie in Iraq) to justify military escalation against Venezuela, a key Chinese partner and the country with the world's largest oil reserves. Military Action is Likely: Ben assesses there is a high likelihood of US missile or airstrikes on Venezuelan territory. A full-scale invasion is less likely, but special forces operations and attempts to seize oil infrastructure are on the table. Marco Rubio is a Key Architect: As the simultaneous Secretary of State and National Security Advisor, Marco Rubio holds unprecedented power and is a lifelong hawk dedicated to overthrowing the governments of Venezuela, Cuba, and Nicaragua.

 Doctor: Why I Refused My Baby’s Vitamin K Shot Along with vaccines, vitamin K injections in the newborn are heavily pushed on parents by the medico-pharmaceutical “healthcare” system. We are told that all babies are in a state of vitamin K deficiency at birth which puts them at risk of serious bleeding and even death. According to this narrative, the best remedy is another “safe and effective” medical intervention. DR SAM BAILEY 02.12.25 #vitamink #sambailey

The Tenpenny Files with Dr. Poppy Daniels
Do you have your cup?
 The Tenpenny Files with Dr. Poppy Daniels Do you have your cup? Yet again, the pharmaceutical machine reveals its corruption as it leaves a trail of damage behind… this time through a birth control injection millions were told was safe. A drug promoted as freedom, pushed as convenience, and injected into women who trusted the system without knowing they had become part of an experiment. An experiment that cared nothing for their health, their hormones, their brains, their marriages, their future. What did they do this time. How did pharmaceutical giants and population control networks insert their agenda straight into women’s bodies while Planned Parenthood and global partners helped normalize it. And what happens when the consequences of that experiment arrive years later in your wife, your daughter, your sister, your mother, or even in your own home. In this powerful episode, Dr. Poppy Daniels brings forward the hidden history of Depo Provera, a drug quietly woven into women’s healthcare while the truth stayed buried behind pharmaceutical influence and decades of coordinated silence. This is not a conversation about a simple injection. It is a deep dive into the systems, institutions, and global networks that championed a drug long before they understood or admitted what it could do.

3I Atlas is getting closer to Earth! And it's getting even weirder! We are 19 days away from our closest approach to 3I Atlas. At this distance, Hubble and James Webb will capture images of this strange interstellar object that are far better than anything we've seen before! But as this day approaches, 3I Atlas is doing some very bizarre things, and NASA may be trying to cover this up! The Angry Astronaut 01.12.25 #3iatlas #angryastronaut

 The Trump and Milei-backed candidate in today's presidential elections in Honduras, Nasry Asfura, is a director of a globalist NGO called CC35 that is aiming to impose an Inter-American carbon market and "smart grid." It is basically the Latin American equivalent of Michael Bloomberg's C40 cities but on steroids. It is dominated mainly by "right"-leaning politicians in Latin America as opposed to Western progressives. It is also one of the rare Latin America NGOs where you will have a Nayib Bukele ally and other Trump-backed politicians serving alongside communists in service to the same goal. @markgoodw_in and I reported on CC35, and Asfura's ties to it, in April 2024, as the NGO he helps lead was attempting to impose a predatory carbon market known as the GREEN+ project as well as an inter-continental "smart grid" to facilitate smart cities in North, Central and South America alongside an Argentine company called Satellogic. Satellogic is deeply tied to current Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, who helped pioneer carbon trading at Cantor Fitzgerald; former Trump Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin; and Argentine oligarch (and big-time Milei supporter) Marcos Galperin, among others. Satellogic is also intimately tied to the stablecoin Tether (as is Lutnick, of course), which is poised to become the inter-continental currency of the Americas and a covert weapon of de facto dollarization. The right-ward shift in Latin America is not stopping the rapid approach of technocracy and one world governance. You are being sold politicians who portray an ostensibly anti-globalist message and promises of nebulous "freedom" while they are instead creating the infrastructure for the dystopia they claim to be against. Instead of "fighting" it, they are planning to maximize profit from its imposition. If you'd like to know more about CC35 and GREEN+, you can read Mark's and my article below. GREEN+ is the model for the new financial/energy system you'll see an attempted roll out of globally between now and 2030. @Whitney Webb 30.11.25 #whitneywebb
