Do Not Shoot The Messenger (Again)
As I partially alluded to in my previous article, over the course of the last few years I’ve gone on record at Pressenza and elsewhere, making 4 or 5 somewhat bold predictions, all of which ended up coming true and almost all of which I caught hell for when they were initially published. In September of 2023 I wrote an article explaining why Joe Biden would not be the Democratic candidate in the November 2024 election.(1) In October of 2024, I wrote an article explaining why Donald Trump would win the 2024 election despite his being behind in all of the mainstream polls.(2) Back in July of 2022 I made the same “shocking” announcement that Mark Carney just made in January of 2026 when he declared the demise of the unipolar global “rules based order”.(3)
Anyway, I won’t bore you with the details of any more erstwhile prognostications. Nevertheless, the article you’re reading now is going to make another fairly bold forecast. So before you read on I’d appreciate it if this time, instead of unfriending me on social media and/or calling me “an alt-right adjacent sock puppet”, “a useless far-left Marxist chucklehead“, “a deluded out-of-touch closeted racist amateur”, or, my personal favorite, “a Russian bot that, the more I read your responses to my comments the more I know you’re not actually human” (and these were some of the nicer ones), that you simply consider the information you’re reading here as a possibility and not as any sort of personal affront to you, dear reader. With that caveat, onward we go.
The Clergy’s Canonized Two-Lane Information Highway
For 4 years now I’ve been harping on and on about how the Western “mainstream” media presents a narrative to the public that’s assembled to carry forward an agenda that serves the oligarchal faction in power. This faction, which is made up mostly of obscenely wealthy bankers whose primary base of operations is the banking City of London, has managed to gain control of the US and European electoral systems as well as a significant portion of the Western Military Industrial Complex in the 21st century.(4),(5),(6)
This primary umbrella narrative then splits itself into 2 superficially divergent subsets known as the “left” and “right” media perspectives. Couched within this framework we find continually repeated political mantras and inferred norms, such as “Trump is terrible” and/or “Trump is great”, “Israel is the bullied victim”, “If you ask questions about COVID vaccines you’re ‘anti-science’”, “Muslims are dangerous terrorists and they’re coming soon to take our freedom”, “Russia is going to invade Europe so going to war with Russia is necessary”, “New immigrants are wonderful and welcome”, “An overflow of immigrants is wrecking our country and a lot of them should be deported”, etc..
You recognize the respective “left”, “right” and sometimes shared “left-right” drills, I’m sure. Frankly, I blush with embarrassment and with a bit of melancholy when mentioning this stuff because I know that a sizable portion of mostly thoughtful, usually well-meaning members of the Western public are still stuck on this narrow two-lane news media highway.
The Newly Forming Tri-Nodal (ARC) Alliance Between America, Russia and China
Ok enough foreplay, lets shoot right to the climax: ARC, America, Russia and China are currently in the process of forming an alliance that will involve mutually beneficial trade, ongoing diplomacy and, quite possibly, mutual respect. Hopefully Trump won’t sh_t the bed when they get to the mutual respect part. Fingers crossed.(7)
This as yet unofficial ARC alliance is soon going to replace the currently collapsing “unipolar ‘new’ world order” in which the US has functioned as a dimwitted combatant for a covenant of uber-elite UK and US banking oligarchs who’ve been using fear tactics, on-going illegal invasions and constant wars to amass resources, power and largely off-the-grid fortunes that make Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos seem middle class by comparison. I’m talking here about a tightly knit network of oligarchs whose combined wealth totals out at somewhere between 50 and 100 Trillion dollars..(8),(9),(10)
Of course, it’s impossible to predict exactly how this new ARC power trio will finally configure itself. The obvious wildcard is the US, considering the fact that it’s very difficult to foresee what Donald Trump is going to do next, even on a day to day basis at this point. That being said, Trump and his administration, despite the apparent disaster unfolding in Iran, have been able to alter the global chessboard enough to generate the beginnings of a genuine ARC alliance. Trump has, for now, seemingly rolled back his republican and democrat neocon counterparts’ absurdly dangerous plans to use Taiwan as a proxy against China and to accompany Europe into the abyss of an impending war with Russia. This is, by any standard excepting an entirely partisan one, a remarkable diplomatic achievement.(11)
In a future article I’ll go into detail about how this process is beginning to take shape and put into motion by the new “tri-nodal” or “multi-nodal” alliance between the world’s 3 current great powers. I’ll also discuss some of the forms of pushback that the still existing, though crumbling, unipolar world order and its political representatives are implementing in order to thwart this new alliance. Lastly, I’ll discuss the humanist perspective and how it relates to these changes. In the meantime, have a look at this article https://www.pressenza.com/2026/05/murderers-row-the-banking-city-of-londons-straw-bosses-call-for-war/ which will give you a bit more context going forward.(12)
