What Flag Is OK?

      Comments Off on What Flag Is OK?

Nike launched a new line of sneakers just in time for the 4thof July which featured a Betsy Ross flag on the heels. The line was pulled after complaints from noted social justice warrior Colin Kaepernick. Nike seems intent on destroying their customer base when they bow down and lick the boots of Kaepernick.  Now, Professor Michael Eric Dyson is piling on as well.

Panda Exposed

It has been an interesting week in US-China relations.  As recently as a few of weeks ago, China had been threatening to blacklist foreign companies that “sided” with the US in the ongoing trade war.

The move to establish the blacklist came after the United States hit Huawei with an export ban, effectively barring US companies from doing business with the smartphone and telecom equipment maker.

The ban was designed to keep the nation’s networks secure from foreign adversaries.  The concern is that the company’s products could offer the Chinese government a way to spy on sensitive US communications.  Huawei denied the accusations.

In the middle of May, Xi Jinping, China’s leader, had warned his people of a new “Long March.”  “We are here at the starting point of the Long March to remember the time when the Red Army began its journey,” Xi told cheering crowds in Jiangxi province. “We are now embarking on a new Long March, and we must start all over again.”  Jiangxi province is the site of the Red Army’s retreat in 1934-36.  Xi appeared to be warning his people that hardships lay ahead.

An interesting dynamic is playing out in Hong Kong.  Protests broke out a week ago over a proposed law that Carrie Lam, Hong Kong’s first female chief executive,  supports.  The law would allow extradition of Hong Kongers to mainland China.

Please note the use of the term Hong Kongers.  Although mostly descended from ethnic Chinese, the vast majority of the residents of Hong Kong do not consider themselves to be Chinese.  Hong Kong has had long experience (150 years) with Western rule-of-law concepts.  Additionally over 3 million people fled communist China in 1949 to the safety and freedom of Hong Kong.  Hong Kongers are not conditioned culturally, as many of those on the mainland are, to the acceptance of totalitarian forms of governance.

The Real Origins Of Spygate, Part 1

      Comments Off on The Real Origins Of Spygate, Part 1

To get into the big picture about the origins of Spygate, there is a lot that one needs to ignore.  Allowing oneself to get caught up in emotion, whether it be righteous anger or unbridled outrage, will lead to being distracted from the real origins of the attacks against this country and this administration.

Not that there is nothing here to be outraged or upset over.  There is much here that makes the blood boil.  It is difficult to know where to start.

Now that declassification has been announced, what can be expected from the Democrats?  Keep in mind that the potential legal exposure of members of the Obama administration is considerable.  Already there is a scramble to deflect blame by some of the chief participants in the Russia narrative hoax.
