Harvard-trained attorney and PhD Francis Boyle is a preeminent academic specializing in international law. For over five decades, he has closely studied treaties and organizations, many of them the product of ambitious utopians seeking to ban war, redistribute power and wealth and otherwise reorder the world. 

In the course of an extraordinarily  yesterday important webinar, Dr. Boyle warned that, for the first time in history, such globalists are poised to create a “worldwide totalitarian police state.” They would do so via what amount to two World Health Organization treaties now being finalized with the aggressive support of the Chinese Communist Party, Davos oligarchs and the Biden administration. 

These accords would cede American states’ constitutional rights to determine health care policy and crush our national sovereignty. Francis Boyle and our Sovereignty Coalition agree that we must withdraw from the World Health Organization now

Three senior Pakistani officers recently lost their jobs on the grounds that they had failed to keep the government’s opponents from launching attacks on the military’s assets. This time, the perpetrators were supporters of an Islamist former prime minister. 

The next time, they may well be jihadists doing business as the Taliban, ISIS or al Qaeda operating from neighboring Afghanistan who are determined to overthrow Pakistan’s government and seize its nuclear weapons.

As former CIA undercover operative Charles “Sam” Faddis has pointed out, this would be just one of the dangerous upshots of Joe Biden’s ruinous surrender of Afghanistan. Another is likely to be that these, and other, terrorist groups – now up-gunned with $83 billion worth of our weapons – are gaining unprecedented power to pursue their ultimate objective, which is to destroy us. 

What’s being done to prevent that?

On Sunday’s edition of “Meet the Press,” Secretary of State Antony Blinken was directly asked “Are we going to prevent China from having a military base on the island of Cuba?”

 

Blinken’s word-salad response amounted to an assurance that: “We've made clear that this is a real concern.” 

In short, the Biden administration intends to take no action to prevent the Chinese Communist Party from establishing – not just an expanded intelligence and advanced cyberwarfare facility in Cuba – but a so-called “military training base” inherently capable of kinetic power-projection, as well. 

 

Our Committee on the Present Danger: China believes that is a totally unacceptable response and will be unveiling in a webinar today at 1 p.m. Eastern Time twenty specific actions the United States must take immediately to counter this new Chinese dagger pointed at the heart of America.

Fresh from his pathetic impersonation of a representative of America’s vital national interests in Beijing last week, Secretary of State Tony Blinken appeared on Sunday morning TV shows to comment on tumultuous events in Russia over the last few days. His message was: The Biden administration is “focused on Ukraine.” 

In fact, Blinken slavishly adhered to what was clearly his main authorized talking point by repeating it ludicrously. No wonder his international interlocutors – and most especially the Chinese Communist ones – treat him with such contempt. 

If Team Biden has nothing to say about the import of the short-lived, but portentous, Russian mutiny besides “Look over there, folks,” at least our countrymen and women ought to be encouraged to “focus” on the fresh evidence that President Biden has personally taken money from Chinese intelligence officers – and repeatedly lied about it. 

Joe must go.

In 1962, the Soviet Union sought to turn Cuba into “a dagger” pointed at America’s heart. Today, a far more dangerous Communist enemy is attempting to do the same.

Sixty-one years ago, a Democratic president responded to the Cuban Missile Crisis by blockading the island and threatening to attack the Soviet ballistic missiles being installed there if they weren’t promptly removed. Today, Joe Biden is turning a blind eye to the rapidly evolving Chinese military build-up in Cuba and misleading the American people about the threat thus posed.

We need an urgent course-correction on the Chinese Communist Party. That requires, among much else, using the sorts of “unrestricted warfare” techniques the CCP has long wielded against us to roll back its various threats in our hemisphere while adopting here the sort of societal war-footing now in place in China.

Finally, Rep. Adam Schiff has been held accountable for his serial lies to the American people, the costly investigations and impeachments they encouraged and the abuse of the power entrusted to him as chairman of the House Intelligence Committee that enabled both. 

As the late William Safire famously said of Hillary Clinton, Schiff is a “congenital liar.” His earlier removal from the Intel Committee and now his censure by the full House of Representatives fall far short of the expulsion such an utter lack of integrity actually warrants. 

But it is the least Congress can do and encourages hope for more of the same with respect to others in government – like Messrs. Biden, Garland and Majorkas – who have similarly betrayed the public trust by abusing their offices and the oath to support and defend the Constitution they took upon entering them.

Hunter Biden once acknowledged that he probably wouldn’t have gotten a board seat with a corrupt Ukrainian oil company if his last name were different. He surely wouldn’t have gotten the sweetheart plea deal announced yesterday if his father weren’t the U.S. President. 

The immediate question is whether that deal rules out Hunter’s prosecution on other charges. His lawyer says it does. The U.S. Attorney who has been investigating him for several years however, says that he is still doing so. 

The far more important question is whether the American people will tolerate this latest example of unequal justice under law. If allowed to stand, it would surely reinforce the perception that there is one criminal standard for Democrats and another for Republicans.      

That perception must not be allowed to take further root, starting with a vigorous prosecution of Hunter Biden.

The take-away from Secretary of State Tony Blinken’s visit to Beijing this week, including its seven-hour struggle session with China’s top diplomat, is pretty clear: Pax Americana has now been replaced with Post-America.

That’s the cumulative effect of Obama-Biden’s three terms pursuing the “fundamental transformation of the United States of America.” The globalists are now in charge, particularly those “with Chinese characteristics.”

They are steadily eroding U.S. sovereignty by the relentless pursuit of so-called “global stability,” “global governance,” “global health,” “global digital IDs,” and “global taxes.” Throw in the end of the dollar as the world’s reserve currency and the dismantling of our constitutional republic at home and you have a post-American world.

No one has given Joe Biden a mandate to effect such an ominous transformation. The question is: Will it become irreversible before he is finally removed from office?

Secretary of State Tony Blinken’s Juneteenth trip to Beijing has been lowballed as basically a social call to re-open a bilateral “dialogue” with little of substance expected to come of it. 

Translation: Something is up.

It could be that Blinken’s prostrating kow-tow to Xi Jinping will simply permit Joe Biden to do the same with the Chinese dictator in the next few months. This will be trumpeted as a victory for diplomacy and a boost to Biden’s reelection bid.

Here's a thought-experiment: What if this meeting instead tees up an enormous strategic defeat in response to the Chinese dictating to the hapless Blinken that they’re going to seize Taiwan before November 2024 – but will guarantee U.S. access to the island’s advanced chip-manufacturing if we don’t interfere? 

Of course, that guarantee would be worthless. But it may be an “offer” Joe won’t refuse.

The tradition of representatives of vassal states “kow-towing” by prostrating themselves before China emperors long predated its practice by the likes of Henry Kissinger and Bill Clinton. But it seems certain to be on display during Secretary of State Tony Blinken’s current mission to Beijing, delayed by what Joe Biden calls “the silly balloon.”

What would be truly silly – if it weren’t so dangerous – is the proposition that visits by a man of Blinken’s exceedingly limited abilities, a track record of appeasement in office and a personal history as a member of the Chinese Communist Party’s “captured” American elite would do other than reinforce Emperor Xi Jinping’s conviction that he can get away with murder, literally.

Far from making violent conflict with the CCP less likely, Team Biden’s insistence on such kow-towing “engagement” undermines our chances of deterring it.
