In Part One of this article I discussed the arrival of Grey Champions in previous Fourth Turnings; their attributes, deficiencies, and leadership skills; and why Donald Trump is the Grey Champion of this Fourth Turning – whether you like it or not.

After epic back-to-back meltdowns at concerts in San Jose and Sacramento, Kanye West has decided to spare his fans from any additional exposure to his rapidly deteriorating mental condition by cancelling all of the remaining 21 dates left on his "Saint Pablo" tour. According to Bloomberg, Kanye will sacrifice roughly $30mm in ticket sales from the cancellation of the remaining concerts.
The Forum, where Kanye was expected to perform tonight in Los Angeles, was the first to announce the cancellation.
In a video message released moments ago by Donald Trump, the President-Elect announced that he has asked his team to develop a list of executive actions for his first day as president and announced that he would issue an executive order on his first day of office, withdrawing the US from the Trans Pacific Partnership, and would issue a notification of intent to withdraw from the TPP, voiding Obama's "free-trade legacy."

U.S. Immigration officials are currently so overwhelmed with an ongoing surge of crossings at the southern border that they have been forced to open a new temporary facility in Texas to accommodate for all the illegal alien border crossers.
Through November, border patrol has caught about 1,500 people crossing the southern border per day, a pace that is right in line with numbers from October.
