“[When we] heard the director of the FBI testifying a couple of years ago that the major threat now from domestic terrorism came from white supremacist groups. I think we were all pretty surprised, because…it seems like much of the violent, organized, terrorist-type activity is coming from groups, such as ANTIFA and others…more associated with [the] left wing.”
“In the market, you have to adapt to the mistakes you make; you admit your errors…But the WEF, and the World Health Organization, or the US government and CDC, NIH, for that matter…just have a hard time admitting that they were wrong. But the fact is that they were wildly wrong.”
“It started very subtly, it was about Hillary Clinton expressing contempt for Donald Trump's supporters saying…at least half of them were deplorables.”
“States like New York, Illinois, California, Washington State, that imposed some of the most draconian policy responses–Those are also some of the states that had the worst health outcomes, and I don't think that should be a surprise,” says, Alex Newman, contributor to “The Epoch Times.”
Intimidating warplane “exercises” around Taiwan, saying that Australia could become its nuclear target, nearly ramming a U.S. warship; and now, flying dangerously close to Canadian Air Force jets—are these signals the Chinese regime is bracing to launch a real attack?
Elliot Ackerman is a decorated, former U.S. Marine Corps officer who served five tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. He offers his insights into what would happen if the U.S. defended Taiwan from Chinese regime invasion.
“Top Gun: Maverick,” and “Doctor Strange 2” are breaking box office records. On a battlefield of a different kind, they’re showing that resisting Chinese regime film censorship, can be potentially more lucrative than submitting to it.
“When I was in Ukraine, I was speaking to a few Ukrainian intellectuals, historians and others; one made a very interesting point to me...When Putin says Zelenksy is a Nazi; in the West, we hear that [as] so ridiculous. He's Jewish; how can he possibly be a Nazi? But when he's saying that to Russians it…sends a slightly different signal…When you're Russian, Nazism, the manifestation of Nazism isn’t anti-semitism so much; it's this western decadence. And so when Putin says Zelensky is a Nazi, he's saying Zelensky is the manifestation of this breed of Western decadence that we as Russians have to guard the world against.” Elliot Ackerman served as a U.S. Marine Corps officer in Iraq and Afghanistan, and later in Afghanistan as a CIA paramilitary officer. In this episode of “The Wide Angle” he offers his strategic to ground level insights on what decides who comes out on top in Ukraine. His most recent novel is the New York Times bestseller, “2034: A Novel of the Next World War.”
If the World Health Organization (WHO) hadn’t followed China’s cue in telling us there was no evidence of Coronavirus human-to-human transmissibility in early 2020… If governments around the world, seemingly in sync, hadn’t massively infringed on personal freedoms to impose lockdowns and mandates over recent years… If the genocidal Chinese regime wasn’t a key player in global institutions, like the United Nations (UN)…
President Joe Biden’s regular gaffes during speeches are a source of both national embarrassment for America, and international amusement. However, with his latest supposedly “erroneous” pledge to defend Taiwan from attack by the Chinese regime, it seems there were some who were not laughing.
As Biden prepared to wrap up his Asia tour, two bomber aircraft, one Russian and one Chinese, were detected "patrolling" in the area. Japan called the action by the loosely allied autocracies a provocation.
While the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) predictably "snaps back" at such pledges to Taiwan’s defense, its capacity to actually launch such an invasion may not be all that high. The signs continue to pour forth of deep fractures in the makeup of the Chinese regime; among these, the escalating factional infighting is one of the most compelling.
“The Chinese system is effectively the model for the great reset. And that is to say what they have in China is effectively what they're trying to establish here.”
—Prof. Michael Rectenwald
Having returned to the U.S. after three months away, I reflect on what it is to travel overseas amid globally coordinated pandemic rules and restrictions. Alongside this, I ask ‘The Anti-woke Professor,’ Michael Rectenwald to connect the dots between the presenting troubles of our times, like the Roe v. Wade contention, record inflation, and food shortages.
He points to a common thread to the chaos rising around us: a suspected global control agenda that could drastically change life as we know it; and, by and large, it appears to be in plain view.
Political agendas, like those that lead a government or regime to censor data, news, or entertainment can have severe economic consequences. This frames our discussion today on some startlingly bad economic decisions surrounding the Marvel film phenomenon.
