Is this something we could theoretically do with existing technology, and how long would it take? The answer to these questions depends upon the planet in question. Right now the only planet for…
When Charlie Robinson of MacroAgressions and I put our heads together back in 2018 to start writing When Charlie Robinson of MacroAgressions and I put our heads together back in 2018 to start writing The Controlled Demolition of the American Empire, we knew what was coming. We launched it right around the 2020 “selection”… you know, when Joe Biden magically pulled 81 million votes out of a hat… and it hit #1 in both the US and Australia.

To House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer—Your responses on July 1, 2026 on the reporting of the $2.2 billion profit personally reaped by President Donald Trump, while allegedly a public servant in 2025, was not specific enough. Jeffries wrote on his social media account: “Donald Trump made more than $2 billion during his first year as President. Republicans are enriching themselves while making your life more expensive.
