The 100th anniversary of the founding of history’s most murderous transnational criminal organization was a fitting occasion to consider the Chinese Communist Party’s state-of-the-art totalitarianism, and what it means for us. A webinar I moderated yesterday on so-called “vaccine passports” established that requiring digital proof of Covid-19 vaccination would enable the Chinese Communists’ “social credit…
America lost one of its most remarkable men this week. Donald Rumsfeld served his country with distinction in uniform, in the Congress, as NATO ambassador and in such key executive branch positions as White House Chief of Staff and twice as Secretary of Defense. “Rummy” was equally impressive during his time as a successful business…
The House of Representatives on Monday joined the U.S. Senate in authorizing enormous investments to restore this country’s competitiveness vis a vis the increasingly high technology threats posed by the Chinese Communist Party and its so-called “civil-military fusion” strategy. It’s about time. We can’t compete effectively, however, if members of our team are playing for…
Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin has made clear his determination to root out racism and extremism from the ranks of the U.S. military. Unless, that is, the racism is black supremacism and the extremism is Marxist in character. In those cases, service personnel exhibiting such behavior are evidently immune from criticism and the sorts of…
Rumors are flying that one of the most important enemy spies in U.S. history has defected to the Defense Intelligence Agency. If true, his debriefings could prove a tremendous boon to our national security – and potentially the death knell for the Biden presidency. The defector is reportedly Dong Jingwei, China’s highest ranking counter-intelligence officer.…
One of the most searing images in America’s military history is that of untold numbers of terrified South Vietnamese civilians trying to board the last helicopter on the roof of our embassy in Saigon in April 1975. It captured both our nation’s humiliating political defeat in the war there at the hands of impoverished, but…
The Chinese Communist Party’s propaganda outlets are condemning the arrogance of Biden National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan and other U.S. officials, reviling them for lacking a “sense of shame.” That’s particularly rich since the CCP is simultaneously praising Wuhan Institute of Virology scientists whose research allegedly included the bioengineering of the Covid-19 virus and, what…
The Iranian mullahs have chosen a serial murderer as their regime’s next president and Supreme Leader-in-waiting. At such a moment, Israel’s most seasoned premier, Benjamin Netanyahu, has been replaced by a fragile coalition dominated by leftists and Islamists. And the Biden administration is determined to appease our enemies in Tehran and undermine our friends in…
Fresh from his appalling summit with one tyrant – Russia’s Vladimir Putin – President Biden’s administration is signaling that another one is in the works with China’s Xi Jinping. This comes in the immediate aftermath of Xi’s latest attack on what little remains of freedom in Hong Kong. Police raided last week the offices of…
Americans across the country are awakening to a frightening reality. We are in the midst of a Marxist revolution aimed at “fundamentally transforming” our country. The alarm is being sounded by parents and teachers, retired military leaders and conservative media hosts led by Tucker Carlson and Steve Bannon. In particular, these “counter-revolutionaries” are warning about…
The Biden-Harris administration doubled-down this week on its assertion that we now face very dangerous adversaries within the United States. Incredibly, it’s not worried about Antifa, Black Lives Matter or Islamists. We’re told instead the most menacing of such foes are white supremacists. A new domestic counter-terrorism strategy and ominous remarks by Attorney General Merrick…
Joe Biden and Vladimir Putin are meeting today in Geneva. Unfortunately, since this isn’t their first date, we pretty much know how it will go. Longtime official notetaker for the then-Vice President’s meetings Mike McCormick, recounts in his “unauthorized” Biden biography how Putin made a point of humiliating his American interlocutor, whom he clearly considered…
Kamala Harris tells us she’s worried about the “root causes” of illegal immigration. Although she recently visited Latin America to find out what they are, the Vice President didn’t examine while there a potentially huge new impetus for that problem – and a disaster for the region and our country, more generally. One of South…
The fall from power yesterday of longtime Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu calls to mind the thankless banishment of Winston Churchill when he was delivering Britain from the scourge of Naziism at World War II’s end. At least in Churchill’s case, it came as a period of acute national peril was receding. Today, the dangers…
School board meetings across America have become battlegrounds between the radical leftists now dominating academia and parents and teachers like Xi Van Fleet who are bravely challenging the indoctrination of our children with so-called “Critical Race Theory” and “Action Civics.” Mrs. Van Fleet, who survived Mao Zedong’s horrific Cultural Revolution, told her Virginia school board…
Vice President Kamala Harris has been widely criticized for her performance telling the people of Central America how to solve the “root causes” of their nations’ problems. Maybe we’re missing something. True, there’s no evidence the Veep actually understands the conditions in Guatemala, El Salvador or Mexico – let alone that she’s addressing them effectively.…
Congressman Eric Swalwell of California is back in the news. It appears this inveterate practitioner of Saul Alinsky’s brand of radical leftist political warfare is complicit in an actually illegal act against Rep. Mo Brooks, a Republican colleague now running for an Alabama Senate seat. Of course, Swalwell’s latest misconduct, involving the use of a…
Yesterday, we talked about a former Chinese general who was, incredibly, allowed to buy 200 square miles of Texas. His vast ranch is near the Mexican border and vital Laughlin Air Force Base. It also will feature an ominously long runway. The pretext for this unimaginable acquisition by a billionaire long associated with the Chinese…
With the focus finally intensifying on what amounts to a Chinese Communist Party biological attack against the world, another of its ominous threats to this country remains largely unaddressed. Prominent Texas financier Kyle Bass told Epoch Times TV last week that the purchase of 200 square miles of his state by a retired People’s Liberation…
The Chinese Communist Party’s brutal repression in Hong Kong, enabled by Covid-19 restrictions and aggressive prosecutions for alleged “national security” crimes, has made it difficult – and dangerous – for residents to hold the mass protests that have traditionally marked the anniversary of the CCP’s murder of ten thousand or more pro-democracy demonstrators in Beijing’s…
