BRICS Summit Begins. Chinese President Xi Arrives In South Africa. President Putin Remians In Moscow

Zero Hedge: Xi Arrives In South Africa With A Message Urging BRICS To Become Geopolitical Rival To G7 

Chinese President Xi Jinping has arrived in South Africa for the 15th BRICS summit, running from August 22-24, where he was greeted in Johannesburg by President Cyril Ramaphosa, who is hosting the summit in the executive capital of Pretoria.

It is merely the Chinese leader's second trip abroad this year, after in March he met his "dear friend" President Vladimir Putin in Moscow. 

Putin will be absent for the BRICS meeting after South Africa signaled it was being pressured to enforce the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court (ICC) which would require the government to arrest the Russian leader.

No one cares.

When trump is back, people outside China don't watch Xi.

But will trump be back?

They are even bringing back lockdowns and distancing if the indictments/jail doesn't work.

They will do -anything- to avoid the law closing in on them.

Anything.

The "distancing" trick was very effective against poll watchers, who typically need to be within 2-3 feet to watch where the polling assistant puts the box after looking at the ballot.

Not only did they push past 6 feet (up to 20 feet away), making a mockery of the democratic process (do not be fooled by the name "Democrat" party. It is a private corporation and they could not be further away from Democracy).

My advice is this: If they bring back the lockdowns - enforce video surveillance, enforce poll watchers to be present everywhere, and limit the polling to ID only and limit the length of polling. EVERY Western European country does it this way and we have every race and religion over here. Poor whites, rich whites. Poor blacks, rich blacks. Poor Latinos, rich latinos. Poor Asian, rich asians.

Use your brain. You are about to lose your rights (which generations before you fought to preserve).

Watch closely
