From the start, the CCP’s history was written in blood — from purges and power struggles to policies that inflicted immense suffering on China's people. //

In July, the Chinese Communist Party will celebrate its centenary. The birthday presents it gave itself included re-written party history and a hotline for Chinese people to snitch on fellow citizens who dare to raise any questions about the newly revised party history. Such behaviors remind everyone the CCP cannot be considered a trustworthy partner in addressing international affairs, such as finding the true origin of the coronavirus. //

The CCP’s attempt to re-write history and turn Chinese people into government informants will cause anger and frustration among the Chinese people, further damage the CCP’s international reputation, and reinforce the belief that the CCP is not a trustworthy partner. After celebrating its centenary, the CCP will begin its new century on very shaky ground.

This was a show trial, the circus part of the late stage Roman Empire bread and circuses policy to entertain the masses. The officer himself is irrelevant, the facts are irrelevant, the last vestiges of the rule of law are ending. The federal government in its entirety is operated by incompetent socialists, and state by state this is becoming replicated. What we are witnessing is a somewhat unique top down revolution, wherein the elites who control the levers of government are taking the power from the people and reversing the American Revolution. They are taking the wealth and privilege purchased with blood through sacred honor, and wealth earned by hard work and sacrifice in a free society and replacing with corruption, nepotism and generational privilege in a modern form. The noble class along with family dynasties controlling the executive branch has been re created. Our independent, educated and wealthy middle class is being undermined, impoverished and diluted with state sponsored illegal migrants to form a new peasant and serf class, with an approved merchant class represented by big tech and lorded over by an all powerful noble class with no checks or balances.

Recent scientific experiments reveal a dangerous desire — and the increasing ability — to alter the fundamental elements of life. //

In truth, if a behavior is both pleasurable and possible, then a few powerful people are bound to do it — if they haven’t done it already. Yet by the time they get caught, it’s probably too late.
At What Point Have You Sold Your Soul?

Today, your kid needs braces to feel good about her smile. Tomorrow, she’ll need a Neuralink chip to keep up in school. Given the laws of supply-and-demand, the price of fresh fetal tissue could be the crypto bubble of tomorrow. Indeed, that trend appears to be well underway.

Again, the question for regular people isn’t how to stop this technocratic revolution from taking place. Barring some circuit-frying electromagnetic pulse, that ship’s already sailed. The question is how to stay human in this emerging world.

At what point are you just being stubborn? On the other hand, at what point have you sold your soul?

By a 216-210 vote, the same Democrats who voted to impeach Trump for telling supporters to "peacefully march" just voted NOT to censure Maxine Waters for literally inciting violence in Minnesota.

If an officer is going to be villainized, attacked, called a racist, and possibly lose his job (I highly doubt criminal charges are filed here) for quite literally saving another girl’s life, then what’s the point?

A large portion of our country have lost their minds. They are blinded by disinformation and aren’t even willing to change their minds when presented with video evidence. One woman I saw, after seeing the video, claimed that a “middle school” teacher could have handled the situation better. As a cop in America, if you shoot the “wrong” person, the facts simply don’t matter. That’s scary, and it should cause some reflection among those in the law enforcement profession.

George Floyd's death sparked calls for police reform. Why hasn't Congress acted? from @sarahdwire
Whatever happened to police reform legislation?

Hi Laura. There's this guy named @SenatorTimScott and his bill was crushed by partisan Democrats who had no interest in actually solving problems. I'm really surprised you didn't know that. //

Do Laura and her cohorts even care that Democrats — who have been blaming everybody under the sun who doesn’t vote Democrat for the lack of police reform — nixed a bill that would have at least attempted to address the problem?

Senator Tim Scott blasted the Democrats for their partisan and selfish filibuster in an epic rant on the Senate floor. Was it picked up by Journalist Laura and the reporter who wrote the article or anyone at The L.A. Times? Or anyone in progressive media?

Another rhetorical question. //

Sen. Tim Scott: Senate Democrats did not reject “what is being offered” but “who is offering it.” //

Democrats wet the bed on this issue. We need to make them change the sheets or lie in their own lazy mess.
