Today was truly a historic day. I have been literally glued to the Internet all day today trying to stay abreast of news both domestically here in the U.S., as well as news around the world, as the world’s economy is now crashing in real time, and most people don’t even realize it yet.

To recap, the U.S. Stock Market saw its biggest 2-day loss in the history of the U.S. Stock Market, and has now lost $11 trillion in value since Inauguration Day.

And while all of this was happening, Israel is in the process of killing as many people in Gaza as possible with U.S. weapons, mainly women and children, as the world stands on the brink of a WW III hot war.

Because I cannot cover all of this in a single article, I am just reproducing my news feed from our Telegram channel today.

China’s KD-21 missile puts US carriers and bases at range

China has announced reciprocal tariffs on U.S. goods today, but they’re not just preparing for a trade war only.

From AsiaTimes:

China’s new air-launched ballistic missile is now operational, signaling a significant shift in Pacific’s balance of air power

China’s KD-21 air-launched ballistic missile (ALBM) has quietly entered service, adding a potent new threat to US aircraft carriers, air bases and exposed parked aircraft across the Western Pacific.

Recent images obtained by The War Zone (TWZ) show frontline People’s Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF) H-6K bombers armed with KD-21 missiles, confirming the weapon’s operational status.

First revealed during Airshow China 2022 in Zhuhai, the KD-21 represents a significant step in China’s anti-access/area-denial (A2/AD) strategy to counter US power projection across the Indo-Pacific.

Analysts immediately recognized the missile’s strategic potential, with many likening it to Russia’s Kinzhal ALBM. While its precise role—whether tailored more for anti-ship or land-attack missions—remains ambiguous, the KD-21’s similarity to the CM-401 anti-ship ballistic missile suggests it may be capable of both.

Observers noted that the missile was carried by a bomber from the PLAAF’s 10th Bomber Division based in Anqing, Anhui Province, under the Eastern Theater Command, suggesting its potential employment in operations targeting Taiwan, Japan and beyond. (Full article.)

Russia Rolls Out Unique Drone Encryption System That Outsmarts the Enemy

Talks of ending the conflict between Ukraine and Russia are all but dead now. Russia is stepping up attacks in Ukraine and preparing for war against NATO.

From Sputnik:

The Mirazh (Mirage) system, which is already used by Russian forces in the special operation zone, minimizes the risks of a first-person view (FPV) drone being intercepted.

The system also prevents the enemy from tracking the whereabouts of a drone operator.

Why is Mirazh Second to None?

“The Mirazh consists of a coding (transmitter) and decoding (receiver) module. The [drone] signal is encrypted with the help of a unique key, which has more than 60,000 variants [to avoid the key being compromised],” expert Sergey Kurapov explains.

What Do Russian Troops Say?

“The ‘bird’ is amazing. It just flies straight ahead without being disrupted by enemy electronic warfare,” one of the servicemen emphasized. (Full article.)

Wall Street fears Trump’s tariffs will wipe out 2024’s stock market gains

Now listen, you rich people, weep and wail because of the misery that is coming upon you. Your wealth has rotted, and moths have eaten your clothes. Your gold and silver are corroded. Their corrosion will testify against you and eat your flesh like fire. You have hoarded wealth in the last days.” (James 5:1-3)

How Trump’s tariff frenzy is igniting the powder keg

From Pepe Escobar:

The Trump circus ringmaster’s self-christened “Liberation Day” tariff frenzy is widely interpreted around the world—in the Global North and the Global South—as Slaughterhouse Day.

This strategy of de facto uncontrolled economic demolition is based on the misconception that launching a tariff war against China is a brilliant idea. As brilliant as collecting a few extra trillions of dollars in tariffs on the assumption that the rest of the planet will be somewhat “encouraged” to sell to the Hegemon, while claiming that these tariffs will lead to the reindustrialization of the United States.

The tragicomic mask of a self-proclaimed circus master of turbo-capitalism is perhaps as pathetic as the rage of European chihuahuas seeking “revenge” through Rearmament, with funds they plan to steal from the savings accounts of unsuspecting citizens. (Full article.)

Soybean Prices Tank on China’s Retaliatory Tariff. Beijing Already Has Shifted Suppliers

China has been gradually reshaping their supply chains to become less dependent on U.S. products for years.

Now that switch is happening more rapidly. According to the report below from Market Watch, China just stopped importing soybeans, sorghum, poultry meat and bone meal from America.

China will most definitely recover faster from a worldwide economic collapse than most other nations, as they have a domestic market that is 3X larger by population than the U.S., and a significant labor force in manufacturing and technology.

Trump is literally committing economic suicide, and I bet he holds stocks in major Chinese companies as well.

A weaker dollar and lower rates are part of Trump’s plan. Don’t say you weren’t warned.

From Market Watch:

Excerpts:

It was Trump’s own close adviser Elon Musk who said the quiet part out loud last fall, shortly before the election, when he stated that panic and “necessary hardship” would be on the administration’s agenda.

So why people are acting so surprised is anyone’s guess. This isn’t an accident. This is “mission accomplished.” Trump needed this sort of turmoil to enact his economic agenda, and he’s getting it.

How much pain is being felt by Trump, by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, by Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick or by Tesla boss Musk?

All four are billionaires.

When you’re that rich, stock-market turmoil isn’t a hardship or even a risk. It’s an opportunity. (Full article.)

While everyone is worried about the economy, Israel is massacring women and children in Gaza today with U.S. weapons as the situation now is worse than ever. 😢

Rescue those being led away to death; hold back those staggering toward slaughter.

If you say, “But we knew nothing about this,” does not he who weighs the heart perceive it? Does not he who guards your life know it?

Will he not repay each person according to what he has done? (Proverbs 24:11-12)

Trump Backs Down from China over TikTok, Again

Trump has been bragging all week about how he had a buyer for TikTok and was going to reveal his plan today, a day before his first extension on the TikTok ban for 75 days expired.

What almost everyone in the media usually fails to report, is that NO SALE OF TIKTOK CAN HAPPEN WITHOUT CHINA’S APPROVAL.

I guess China was not motivated to negotiate this after the tariffs were announced this week, and I can only image what China just told Trump.

But whatever it was, all of a sudden there are no longer any plans being revealed today about a “TikTok sale”, and Trump is extending the ban for another 75 days.

China wins, again. If TikTok goes dark because of the ban, Oracle, which hosts the app in the U.S. on their servers, and others in the U.S. will lose $billions. NOT the other way around. See:

Who’s freaking out the most over the stock-market dive? It depends on who they voted for.

From Market Watch (emphasis mine):

As investors wrestle with what moves to make with their portfolios amid the current economic turbulence, their decisions may have less to do with any relevant financial factors and more with a choice they made back in November.

Namely, who they voted for in the presidential race.

They say those who sided with the Republicans and President Donald Trump, whose Wednesday tariff announcement sent an already battered stock market reeling on Thursday and into Friday, are likely to be able to put any downturn into context and view it as a case of short-term pain that will eventually result in long-term gain.

“Viewing the market through a partisan lens is dangerous,” said Eric Schiffer.

Your portfolio isn’t bleeding red or blue. It’s drowning in your own confirmation bias.” (Full article.)

American History Repeats Itself? From the Santa Ana Register, October 28, 1929.

About 30 minutes after I posted this image from the Santa Ana Register in 1929, this appeared in my news feed from Market Watch, which is a corporate news source for Wall Street (NOT “alternative” news):

A Lesson From the Biggest Stock Market Crash in History: Things Can Get Much Worse

Excerpts:

The selloff that followed President Donald Trump’s “Liberation Day” tariff announcement was large by any measure, a Black Thursday and a Black Friday.

If they are followed by a Black Monday and Tuesday, then everyone is in trouble.

Back in October 1929, after suffering their own Black Thursday, traders also had a weekend to ponder what the new week would bring.

It brought disaster. (Full article.)

Tesla Stock Plunges. It Has to Do With China.

Tesla Stock Plunges. It Has to Do With China.

Tesla in China is DEAD! China accounted for about 22% of Tesla’s revenue in 2024.

If you think the demonstrations at Tesla Dealerships here in the U.S. were wild, let’s see what the Chinese people now start to do with their Teslas, as Trump tries to destroy China’s economy.

Judge orders US government to return man who was mistakenly deported to El Salvador by end of Monday

From CNN:

Excerpts:

A federal judge on Friday ruled that the United States must bring back a man who was mistakenly deported to El Salvador last month.

Judge Paula Xinis of the US District Court in Maryland directed the federal government to return Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran national, to the US no later than 11:59 p.m. on April 7.

The Trump administration conceded in a court filing Monday it mistakenly deported the Maryland father of three “because of an administrative error,” but said it could not bring him back because he is in Salvadoran custody. It appeared to mark the first time the administration has admitted an error related to its recent deportation flights to El Salvador, which are now at the center of a fraught legal battle.

“This case is certainly important to Abrego Garcia and his family,” the judge said. “In recognition of that. I feel like I can’t wait on giving my order.”

Over the course of the hearing, Xinis had repeatedly raised issues with Abrego Garcia’s removal to El Salvador, given that an immigration judge had previously granted him withholding of removal, meaning he could suffer persecution if removed from the US to El Salvador. He was still considered removable; it just couldn’t be to El Salvador. Xinis cited that status in her ruling, saying Abrego Garcia was apprehended last month “without legal basis” and deported “without justification of legal basis.”

“This was an illegal act,” Xinis said. “Congress said you can’t do it, and you did it anyway.”

Conclusion for 4.4.25

The only place I am seeing near panic over today’s news is in the financial news publications that Wall Street investors subscribe to. Almost everyone now is predicting a recession, with others throwing journalistic caution to the wind and explaining that we could actually be seeing something on par to what happened in 1929.

I doubt that most of the American public truly understands the significance of what we are now living through.

And the Trump supporters are still positive, where I saw articles today in the Conservative Christian Media saying things like “TRUMP IS BRINGING DOWN THE DEEP STATE BANKERS!”, and other such positive spins on Trump’s actions. It seems that they don’t mind if they lose their jobs and cannot put food on their table anymore, because they just have to “trust the plan” by continuing to trust in Trump.

They are still clueless to the fact that Trump IS THE DEEP STATE, and they are following him like sheep being led to the slaughter.

If Trump does decide to bomb Iran in the next few days, our lives will never be the same. The WW III hot war will begin, and now it is mostly the U.S. and their Israeli puppets against the rest of the world, because China and Russia back Iran, and Trump has made our former allies, Western Europe, our enemies now.

So instead of worrying about whether or not Trump is going to be able to buy Greenland and make Canada the 51st state, I think it would be more appropriate to be concerned about whether California and the West Coast will become part of Western China, and New York and the East Coast will become part of Russia-America.

The place true believers in Jesus Christ need to be right now, is in the center of God’s Kingdom, which extends to earth through the Spirit of Jesus Christ.

All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance.

And they admitted that they were aliens and strangers on earth.

People who say such things show that they are looking for a country of their own. If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return.

Instead, they were longing for a better country—a heavenly one.

Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them. (Hebrews 11:13-16)
