You're already on hundreds of cameras by walking into any airport in the world. Do they need your consent to run facial recognition software on the security footage?

If you are doing something illegal then you should definitely bring a new device. If you are not doing something illegal then you should just bring your normal device and keep it locked/off when entering.
They can force biometrics but not pin, but they will only do that if you're already in super deep trouble for breaking the law. Just be normal and you'll have no issues.
This is all extremely unlikely unless you are a known enemy of the state or are bringing in illegal goods.
In customs they simply ask you why you're visiting, where you came from, if you're bringing any illegal goods, then let you pass through. If you're flying in, there's usually a huge line of people at the airport and you only end up talking to the customs agent for 10 to 30 seconds.
If you have a very suspicious story that doesn't check out or you're trying to bring in illegal goods to the country or you know that you are doing something nefarious then you should be concerned that they might pull you into a back room. I think all of these concerns are very overblown for the average person though.
When I was reading about whether to bring my phone to China, everyone online had similar recommendations about bringing a new device and it ended up being completely unnecessary. They don't check anyone's phone and they asked no questions other than reason for visiting. When I told my co-workers about my concerns they all thought it was quite comical because they've traveled more than anyone and see this as extreme paranoia.
Of course they could take your phone and put you in jail for any reason they want if they really wanted to, the most important thing is to not give them a reason to. They will only get your phone if you give them a reason in the first place.
Just keep your phone locked/off when you go through the border so it requires a pin.
Did you read the article? The full title of the livestream was, "Will the Deep State Assassinate Biden If He Refuses To Leave?"
As far as I can tell, the title was clickbait and he did not encourage violence, but I would love to be corrected. Look, I hate defending this guy, I'm just doing this because I hate sensational headlines.
Seriously? Asking for a source makes me a troll? I'm a skeptic of all things and I'm tired of everyone on all sides exaggerating and editorializing news. It seems like most people in the comments didn't read the article, or maybe they've seen some other articles that they aren't linking to. I don't listen to Alex Jones so I don't know what he's saying on this topic but it's not covered in this article.
I hate Alex Jones but I don't follow your logic. Can you be less ambiguous to help me out? What did Alex say? I can't find a single article supporting what these commenters claim, not even this post's article. It seems like everyone is making stuff up after reading the headline and not even clicking the link to read it.
I ask because the article says nothing about him encouraging others to do it. I was hoping someone would link or explain more.

It's not that the US economy is better than others, it is just trusted to be the default place for people to invest their excess money which has resulted in most of the US stock market being overvalued compared to the rest of the world.
"U.S. stocks' outperformance on average over the past half-century or so has simply been due to increasing price multiples, not an improvement in business fundamentals. That is, U.S. companies did not generate more profit than international companies; their stocks just got more expensive. [...] Cheap stocks have greater expected returns and expensive stocks have lower expected returns."
Yeah and it seems obvious that they shouldn't be driving vehicles where people are laying. This is the third person I've heard of being run over by police on a beach this summer.

Was that during COVID? I regularly eat Chipotle around the US and I've never encountered this requirement, I always order at the counter so it is fresh.
