Donald Trump is losing the trade war on China, which he started. The agreement he made at the meeting with President Xi Jinping shows how the US is much more dependent on the Chinese economy than vice versa. Political economist Ben Norton explains how Trump's tariffs have hurt American workers, especially farmers, while China advances as a new technological and manufacturing superpower.

Nobel Peace Prize winner supports Israel's genocide & Trump's war on Venezuela
The Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to María Corina Machado, a far-right Venezuelan coup-plotter who has long been funded by the US government. She strongly supports Israel as it commits genocide against the Palestinian people, and she is at the center of Donald Trump's war on Venezuela, pushing for regime change against President Nicolás Maduro. Ben Norton exposes the ugly truth.
