Don’t Look Now: D Vengeance

America is entering a year of historic upheaval from Charlie Kirk’s assassination and the spiritual shock that followed, to Trump’s tariff revolution, China’s rare-earth war, collapsing energy grids, AI displacement, and the looming fights over Taiwan and Venezuela.

Glenn Beck sits down with BlazeTV hosts Steve Deace (‪@deaceshow‬) and Liz Wheeler (‪@lizwheeler)‬ along with his head researcher Jason Buttrill, to break down the biggest stories of 2025.

Plus, they each give their most explosive prediction for 2026 that could shape our politics, economy, national security, and civil rights in ways Americans have never experienced before.

The Collapse Of Trust

Why are so many pundits and members of the press in Washington D.C. suddenly so silent about President Donald Trump? Are they afraid of him? Or are they afraid they have miscalculated and misread the public?

Victor Davis Hanson addresses the changing perceptions and offers his assessments about where the new battlelines are forming. He says, “Most people don’t realize what’s about to happen.” Here’s more from Hanson on Liberal Focus.

Trump Takes Off The Gloves

The [Deep State] is in trouble. Trump & Elon set them up. Remember when Elon said Trump was in the Epstein files.

Now the Democrats and the fake news do not know how to get out of this and Trump has called for an investigation.

The gloves are off. Trump is sending a clear message to the [Deep State]. Everything you put into place is now being reversed.

The people are taking back control. Tariffs are more important than anyone realizes. Here’s more from the X22 Report.

GOP Turncoats Sunk Snowden?

Patrick Bet-David sits down with journalist Glenn Greenwald for a hard-hitting discussion on Venezuela’s boat strikes, alleged CIA plots to overthrow Nicolás Maduro, and the political implications of Trump’s meeting with Brazilian President Lula da Silva.

The meeting with Lula happened in Asia during Trump’s stop in Malaysia for the ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) Summit. Lula wanted to meet with Trump to discuss his proposed tariffs on goods from Brazil.  Brazil is obviously not an ASEAN nation, but apparently did not want to wait to resolve tariff complications.

Greenwald also discusses his dealings with various whistleblowers, including Edward Snowden, Chelsea Manning and Julian Assange. He says Trump came close to issuing a pardon for Snowden upon the conclusion of Trump’s first term. But Democrats pushing a second impeachment hearing, plus turncoat Republicans like Mitch McConnell and Tom Cotton, scotched the deal.

The British Empire Wrecks Itself

In this episode, Barbara Boyd examines the recent series of attacks by the British Empire on President Trump and his policies. Key topics include the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, the role of British and European leaders, Trump’s strategic economic alliances in Asia, and the purported financial destabilization plans involving frozen Russian assets.

Boyd also highlights the U.S. Justice Department’s efforts to prosecute those involved in the alleged coup against Trump. Here’s more from Promethean Updates.

 

Risk In Painting This Picture

There is a risk painting this picture. What will happen when the law descends upon Adam Schiff? The crooked Senator from California has been accused of  mortgage fraud, same as Letitia James. But will his leftist constituents see his arrest as reason to begin an insurrection? How about if Hillary Clinton gets indicted? Or Barack Obama?

The spiritual battle could truly turn Biblical. The heavens are shaking. Each move must be carefully planned and weighed so as not to topple over the apple cart.

Still, we must expose their corruption. The time is near for The Great Awakening. Also in this edition: Borders, Brotherhood, Pain. Pray! Here’s more from And We Know.

Tariffs Wipe Out Board Games?

Cards Against Humanity is releasing a new limited edition that slams Trump, his administration and his tariffs for $25. Is this trolling or some hardcore TDS? You decide. Here’s more from Clownfish TV.

China Curbs Rare Earth Exports

Ahead of the Xi–Trump summit, Beijing announced sweeping new export curbs on rare earths, lithium-ion batteries, graphite, and synthetic diamonds — a move that could reshape global supply chains and expose America’s most dangerous weakness: its military’s dependence on Chinese minerals. For decades, China has built a near-monopoly over the rare earth mining and refining industry, producing over 70% of the world’s supply and holding almost half of global reserves.

While the U.S. scaled back mining in the 1980s, China ramped up — flooding the market with cheap production and driving competitors out. Now, Beijing controls over 90% of global refining capacity, giving it unmatched leverage over industries from EVs to advanced weaponry. A new report exposes just how deep this vulnerability runs. 77% of U.S. Department of Defense platforms rely on Chinese-sourced rare earths — including 91% of Navy, 85% of Air Force, and 70% of Army weapons systems.

The F-35 fighter jet alone uses 900 pounds of these critical materials. If China tightens exports, America’s military-industrial complex could face crippling delays. This isn’t just a trade dispute — it’s a battle for technological dominance and national security. China’s export restrictions on gallium, germanium, tungsten, and now rare earths, are part of a broader strategy to remind Washington that it still controls the minerals that make modern warfare possible. As the world enters a new era of great power competition, the question isn’t whether China can weaponize its mineral dominance — it’s whether the United States can survive without it. Here’s more from World Affairs In Context.

(EDITOR’S NOTE: This is undoubtedly the chief reason behind President Donald Trump’s vow on Friday to raise tariffs on all Chinese imports by 100 percent. There are other reasons for his anger. U.S. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna of Florida, for instance, told one interviewer last week that China had bankrolled the Armed Queers of Salt Lake City. Investigator George Webb says the Armed Queers of Salt Lake City worked with Tyler Robinson to pull off the assassination of Charlie Kirk.  Webb says Armed Queers leader Ermiya Fanaeian drove Robinson’s gray Dodge Challenger getaway vehicle. It’s also believed, although yet to be ascertained, that the Armed Queers trainer was a second assassin involved in the September 10 killing.)  

India Just Made A Big Mistake

India has pushed all the wrong buttons and gotten itself into hot water with the United States. For many years now, India has sold us lots of goods, while buying virtually nothing back in trade from the United States. They purchase most of their oil, as well as their military equipment, from the Soviet Union.

President Donald Trump has had enough. He had imposed a 25 percent tariff on India., Now, he’s lifted the tariff to 50 percent. Trump has grown weary of India’s sweet talk. Its action tell another story. Here’s more from Matt Morse TV.

CNN Stuns Democratic Voters

CNN describes President Donald Trump as “the most influential president” of the past century, and Democrats are having a cow. When even one of your own leftist networks start telling the truth, it becomes twice as hard to hide in the shadows.

CNN’s assessment is based on the monumental changes he has made economically with tariffs, as well as the degree to which he has erased the onslaught of incoming and illegal immigration. Here’s more from Steve Turley.
