A rogue government, out of touch with its citizens, is taking America in a direction its people don't want to go—a "socialist republic" with ruling elites, a huge, dirt poor, powerless lower class, and no middle class. With assistance from High Tech, Big Business, Russia, and China, the government is building an unassailable power base.
The administration believes it's unrealistic to assume one nation can be the "sole superpower" indefinitely—and history bears that out. In its naivety, it adopts the philosophy "If you can't beat 'em, join 'em," and develops a tacit understanding with China—a nation with a 4,000-year-old dream of world domination—to create détente and "shared world governance." China agrees but secretly has other plans.
The US administration fears rebellion and wants to eliminate its dissident Citizenry. It asks China to develop a much more virulent pandemic virus than COVID-19, One which is not affected by current vaccines. It trusts China to also provide a vaccine so the administration can inoculate its supporters and essential "worker bees."
The economy is in freefall. inflation skyrockets. crime and violence are out of control. Countless millions of illegal immigrants representing votes for the entrenched administration and cheap labor for its ally, Big Business, flow unimpeded across the southern border. America's enemies gleefully watch and plan as what was once the world's only superpower descends to Third World status.
A small, but effective group of true patriots, hoping to restore integrity and virtue to government, first must stop the use of the virus. The only ones who might be able to do that are a battle-weary group of special operations veterans. The problem is the American government, in cooperation with the Chinese, has sent the world's best assassins to hunt them down and kill them.
