Sinicization on Display – President Trump Tours The Temple of Heaven with Chairman Xi Jinping

May 14, 2026 | Sundance |

Chinese Chairman Xi Jinping wanted to emphasize history and determination when he took President Donald Trump on a tour of the Temple of Heaven in Beijing, China.   The temple was used by Chinese Emperors in the Ming and Qing dynasties where the rulers would pray for abundant harvests, good weather and good fortune for the people of China.  Apparently, Chairman Xi wanted to send a message that rulers of China follow a mandate that is in alignment with spiritual divinity.

It is a rather ironic view of stewardship considering that religion is subject to strict government regulation in communist China. The Chinese government officially recognizes five religions: Buddhism, Catholicism, Islam, Protestantism, and Daoism; however, the practice of each religion must follow communist rules and be in alignment with all CCP dictates.  Within China, this is known as “sinicization,” a requirement that all religious groups must adapt their beliefs and practices to align with Chinese culture and the Communist Party’s ideology.

The Temple of Heaven is near Tiananmen Square, and the most famous temple in Beijing.  Originally built along with the Forbidden City in the early 1400s the temple is also near the royal palace that President Trump and Chairman Xi toured with their spouses in 2017.  Video Below:

Trump Brings Hard Truth to China: The Old World Order Is Over

Promethean Overviews

(17:35)

The old global order is breaking apart — and a new system is beginning to emerge.

President Trump is pressuring China to help force Iran to abandon its nuclear ambitions while simultaneously restructuring global trade, rebuilding American manufacturing, dismantling the post-9/11 intelligence apparatus, and launching the largest nuclear expansion in modern U.S. history.

From the Strait of Hormuz and U.S.-China diplomacy to Tulsi Gabbard’s intelligence overhaul, Russiagate investigations, nuclear reactor construction, and America’s industrial resurgence, this video explores the forces shaping the next phase of global power.

The foundation for a new American-led industrial civilization is already being built.

President Trump Arrives in Beijing for Strategically Significant Meeting with Chairman Xi

May 13, 2026 | Sundance |

The meeting is all business as the two apex economic leaders are scheduled to meet on a summit that is majority framed around finance, trade, AI and economics.  At its core, this summit between President Trump and Chairman Xi is about economic power.

Within the power dynamic of these types of high-stakes meetings, positioning plays a critical role. Chairman Xi Jinping did not attend the arrival ceremony and the meeting between Trump and Xi will not take place until Thursday. Chinese Vice President Han Zheng greeted Trump at the Beijing airport. US Ambassador to China David Purdue and China’s Ambassador to the US Xie Feng were also there to welcome him.

(Daily Mail) – […] The President’s Air Force One posse also included NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang, who was scooped up on a refueling stop in Alaska, US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer, Fox News host Sean Hannity and Rush Hour director Brett Ratner.

Trump’s arrival with a verified boardroom of CEOs, including Boeing’s Kelly Ortberg, Goldman Sachs’s David Solomon, GE Aerospace’s Larry Culp and others, signifies the full arsenal of American capitalist firepower touching down in communist China. The executives cover a large portion of US industries, ranging from tech, finance, banking and more.

As globalist trends fade and nations turn inward to provide for themselves in an increasingly self-isolating environment, the President’s choice to bring a group of hand-selected bosses underscores a pragmatic pivot to outsourcing some of America’s economic hurdles to private citizens while Trump engages with his ‘friend,’ Chinese President Xi Jinping.

The board of US businessmen arriving in Beijing with the President represents tens of trillions of dollars.

‘I will be asking President Xi, a Leader of extraordinary distinction, to ‘open up’ China so that these brilliant people can work their magic,’ Trump posted on social media while on Air Force One. ‘I will make that my very first request.’

While most state visits feature a cadre of diplomats, military leaders and agency heads, Trump has deliberately loaded up his presidential aircraft with dealmakers.

The CEOs are not there for show; rather, they are there to negotiate terms that fuel US and Chinese ambitions. (read more)
