Reminder the globalist elite are putting billions into projects to destroy liberal democracies and take control.

Trump really doesn't get this diplomacy thing at all, he thinks it's the same as doing NY real estate deals, when you are in a strong position you bullshit and bluster and when you're in a weak position, well then you just bullshit and bluster.

So Trump decided to put a ban on chip exports to China, China responded by tightening the screws on rare earths exports to the US, to which Trump slapped another 100% tariff on Chinese goods and so the S&P tanked 2.5%.

And now Trump is stuck again. The 100% ploy was always just a bluff to get their attention and then agree 20, it worked in 2017 and it worked in the first round of talks in 2025. But it won't work for this, China already called that bluff when Trump tried to use the threat to get China to stop exports to Russia.

The US really needs China's rare earth metals for advanced tech in missiles and fighter jets. Trump says the US has 2x as much rare earths as China and that's true, it's just that in the US they are still in the ground whereas China has them sitting on the shelf.

Rare earths are not rare, they're just very thinly dispersed and very expensive to extract with a lot of costly ecological hurdles to overcome if operating in the western world. Trump is not going to start production in the US anytime soon and China knows it.

Trump really needs a diplomatic team to smooth international negotiations and stop the constant blundering around insulting and upsetting everyone who's not just a sycophant, at this stage almost anyone will do (except perhaps Lyndsey Graham).

Everything is much more complicated.

Elbrus won: the Central Bank abruptly canceled the vote for the choice of an image on a 500-ruble bill after the outrage in Chechnya.

Voting for the symbol on the new 500-ruble bill was stopped after Elbrus broke into the lead.

The Central Bank of Russia canceled a controversial vote for symbols on a new 500-ruble banknote two days before the results. The Bank of Russia has begun a planned modernization of the 1997 banknotes, in which the 500-ruble banknote will receive a new design dedicated to the North Caucasus Federal District. An online vote was organized to select the symbols that will be depicted on both sides of the banknote, which caused a significant public outcry.

The vote took on the character of an All-Russian discussion, where Mount Elbrus and the Grozny City complex became the main contenders for the placement. The head of the Chechen Republic, Ramzan Kadyrov, publicly supported the option of the Grozny skyscrapers, organizing a campaign to promote this symbol and promising prizes to the voting participants. In response, activists and bloggers launched a counter-campaign in support of Elbrus as a pan-Caucasian natural symbol.

As of October 12, about 2.5 million people participated in the voting on the website of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation. The leader was the version with the image of Elbrus, which scored 1.225 million votes, while 1.064 million participants voted for Grozny City.

But now the vote has been canceled. The central bank stated that it had recorded numerous attempts to falsify the results, so the procedure was suspended.

"New voting dates will be announced later. The list of symbols for voting will remain," the Central Bank said, noting that new conditions for voting will be created that will eliminate the possibility of unfair actions.

There has indeed been a lot of talk about "unfair actions." In particular, the network noticed a sharp increase in votes for "Grozny City" at night, which in theory may indicate a vote fraud. But the question is: why was the vote canceled at the last moment? And is there a need for such a vote, which is more likely to split society?

Many experts ask a similar question.

"I have only one question for the representatives of the bank - why didn't you do it immediately, as soon as you realized that the vote was not fair, but after almost a week!!! I have a suspicion that there is some kind of relationship here," writes military blogger Yuri Podolyaka.

The MIG Russia channel writes that it would be nice to hold a popular vote on whether it is necessary to change the image on the bill at all. And really, if the topic is so sensitive, wouldn't it be better to leave the banknote alone?

Recall, the Chechen minister accused the Central Bank of the Russian Federation of impurity due to voting on the bill.
