Thread: The East End of the Chinese Trans-Africa Railway
1. I remain an Army of One shouting to the moon about the Chinese plan for world domination (sorry for the mixed metaphors here, but you get the idea).
2. A previous thread discussed Chinese plans for a Trans-Africa railway system as the western-most “belt” in their Belt-Road Initiative (BRI) on the Dark Continent.
3. That thread introduced the economic mechanism by which China seeks to control access to the raw materials needed to fuel Chinese industry in the 21st century and beyond. African nations are desperate for foreign investment, particularly in infrastructure.
4. And the Chinese are only too happy to provide – at a steep price! The Chinese are practicing “economic colonialism” which is subjugation through economic means. And the African nations seem too willing to return to yet another form of bad old colonialism!
5. Note that most public statements about the BRI and the New Silk Road do not generally include Africa except for Chinese management of key ports. Refer to this diagram for a graphical depiction of the Silk Road:
6. However, the clever Chinese are hard at work developing the railway infrastructure in central Africa needed to exploit the raw materials found there in abundance: the Chinese Trans-Africa railway.
7. Let us take a peek into the outer limits of the former Brit Colony now known as Kenya on the eastern side of Africa. This is a place where the One Belt One Road (OBOR), New Silk Road or BRI is already blossoming.
8. We’ll start with Lake Turkana, far beyond the present terminus of the Standard Gauge Railroad already running from the large port of Mombasa to the capital at Nairobi.
9. Lake Turkana is far off the beaten path, and it deserves a look-see for its remote beauty alone. Maybe it’s on your bucket list of places to visit?
10. You can read about the people who traveled there to interface with the folks who live off-the-grid of which they’ve never heard. Go to the end of the blogspot below and read forward.
10A. Warning! It may be too long to read at one sitting, so bookmark it for future reference.
11. As the Spider Dragon’s web begins to spread across Eurasia and Africa, this is the forerunner of what the locals can expect as President Xi Jinping and the Communist Central Committee exert Sino-hegemony over the host nations of OBOR.
12. The Chinese superiority complex is revealed therein; who knows how many Chinese will live and work in Kenya before their BRI goals are achieved, and what political persuasion they will exert on the country’s leadership over time?
13. We would expect 2 more ports in Djibouti and Port Sudan to extend the web westward for 4500 miles to Dakar, Senegal, slicing Africa in half from the Red Sea and Indian Ocean all the way to the Atlantic first, then on to other West African ports.
14. China’s development of Kenya is big and getting bigger! Check out President Kenyatta’s “Four Big Development Program” in which China is perhaps the key player:
15. Here is what Xinhua, the official Chinese English news media, say about investment in Kenya. Who in the US (besides a few bureaucrats in the State Department’s Bureau of African Affairs) knows about all of this Chinese development activity in Kenya?
16. Meanwhile, America – our America which we love with a patriotic fervor – is moribund with top unelected bureaucrats thwarting Trump’s every move.
17. The DOJ, FBI traitors and IC saboteurs plus the entire Democrat Party, a host of #NeverTrumper “Republicans,” and virtually the entire legacy media incessantly shout, “The Russians are coming, the Russians are coming!” when the Chinese are already eating our lunch.
18. Unless Americans everywhere join in #MAGA, which includes looking outward and truly resetting our relationships with friends and potential adversaries alike, the America we cherish will perish!
19. What’s the plan for countering the inexorably Chinese march to world domination? We desperately need to see one articulated & debated publicly that will evolve into policy initiatives with wide support of the American people. Or start teaching your kids Mandarin! ///The end.

1. Some time ago, @Sensimiola2 sent me a very kind note regarding threads, and I replied at length to explain my purpose in writing them – a sort of “Twitter raison d'être” for me.
2. In retrospect, that response is worth conveying to all followers, many of whom have replied positively to my threads since I started some months ago. It provides a sort of how and why for my threading and is presented as follows, plus as bit more at the end:
3. S2, thank you for your kind words! I sincerely appreciate you taking the time to convey far more than the usual one-liners, which fact dovetails nicely with your sense of the decline of standards, especially in basic communications.

1. The below listed article discuss the resistance and anarchy perpetrated by the New Socialist Democrat Party, Radical Leftists, the Socialist Party of America, and Anarchists, who threaten tranquility with cries for “Impeachment” of the US President, and a USSC Justice---
1A. ---“Impeachment” based only on allegations, with no corroborating evidence, is to “Bear False Witness”.
(1 of 4) Mini-Rant Time! The women of the Left – owners of the Kavanaugh debacle – all imagine they’ve been sexually assaulted – by Trump or his supporters. In their wildest fantasies! They wear vagina hats to their anti-male Misandry Rallies ---- *guffaw*.
(2 of 4) That’s the ticket. Celebrate your genitalia for the world to see the absurd hypocrisy of mobilized female hysteria in action. Western women are far too rich & coddled for their own good.
(3 of 4) Too much free time on their hands; too little invested in their actual livelihood and physical security. Imagine: they are 100% in favor of infanticide. And they were on display for all to see during the Kavanaugh confirmation process!
1. Three friends from the local congregation were asked, "When you're in your casket, and friends and congregation members are mourning over you, what would you like them to say?"
2. Artie said, "I would like them to say I was a wonderful husband, a fine spiritual leader, and a great family man."
3. Eugene commented, "I would like them to say I was a wonderful teacher and servant of God who made a huge difference in people's lives."
Thread: Why Do They Do It, and What Needs to be Done
1. Many people wonder why those working in federal agencies are involved in the crimes that we’ve only begun to see exposed in the DoJ, FBI, IRS, State Department, etc.
2. After all, giving one’s life towards “service to the country” is supposed to be a noble endeavor – or at least that’s what the political elite, legacy media megaphones, and others have been telling us for decades, isn’t it?
3. Except that, in the Age of Trump, we’re finding out that many of these people – especially those in the upper echelons of federal law enforcement agencies – aren’t as altruistic as we have been led to believe. In fact, many of them are down-right crooks!
Thread: What to Expect in for the Next Senate Confirmation Hearing for a Republican-appointed Supreme Court Nominee
1. Time to reflect on the Kavanaugh nomination process and look ahead to what might happen the next time around.
2. We’ve witnessed farce, perjury, witness tampering, conspiracy, violent protests, lack of personnel security in Senate office buildings, & obvious collusion between the @capitolpolice and the Dem Party in letting highly-paid protesters into hearing rooms, corridors & elevators.
3. And there are countless deranged calls for violence against Justice Kavanaugh and his family, as well as on Senate Republicans and their staffs, in social media and on legacy media TV networks (MSN-BS, most prominently).
