Are China, Russia and India making a pact vs TOM?

I’m pretty sure that a la middle school, before they all shook hands, Putin, Xi and Modi spat on their palms. Sealing the pact that they are making to take TOM down. “The leaders of Russia, China, India and seven other nations met Monday in northern China for the latest annual summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization in what could be an emerging challenge to America’s global leadership. The full membership also includes Belarus, Iran, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Pakistan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. Originally seen as a foil to U.S. influence in Central Asia, the organization expanded to include India and Pakistan in 2017, Iran in 2023 and Belarus in 2024.

Some of those are clear foes of the West, especially Iran and close Russian ally Belarus. Others including India, China and Russia have a more nebulous relationship, given Washington’s wobbly stance on Russia’s war with Ukraine and the U.S. tariffs that have upended trading relationships with countries such as China and India. Since the Russia-Ukraine war began, India has become a major buyer of Russian oil, increasing tensions with Washington. Modi also remarked on “steady progress” in improving relations with China after meeting its top diplomat in August and noted “respect for each other’s interests and sensitiveness.’'

The laser guided attack on immigration has definitely had an effect. Whether that is good or bad is TBD. But you will notice the difference in the cost of goods that will go up as a result of fewer immigrants being allowed to work in the US. “More than 1.2 million immigrants disappeared from the labor force from January through the end of July, according to preliminary Census Bureau data analyzed by the Pew Research Center. That includes people who are in the country illegally as well as legal residents.

Immigrants make up almost 20% of the U.S. workforce and that data shows 45% of workers in farming, fishing and forestry are immigrants, according to Pew senior researcher Stephanie Kramer. About 30% of all construction workers are immigrants and 24% of service workers are immigrants, she added.” Our life is not going to get safer, better, and whatever other descriptors TOM likes to use as his reasoning for going after all non-white people. It is going to cost us – at the grocery, in the geo-political world, and mostly in the soul of our citizens.
