Hart had been pushing Democrats on the House Administration Committee and on the floor to overturn Iowa’s certification of the election and seat her, which picked up support from Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi.

China Grabbing Whitsun Reef: 'Sudetenland' in Slow Motion :: Gatestone Institute
China Grabbing Whitsun Reef: 'Sudetenland' in Slow Motion :: Gatestone Institute
The failure of the Obama administration to defend the Philippines in early 2012, in a confrontation similar to today's, emboldened China's regime to adopt an even more aggressive posture in its peripheral waters.
China claims all the waters inside the dashes are sovereign as well, terming them "blue national soil." There is no legal basis for an assertion of sovereignty of this sort.
Whitsun, which Manila calls Julian Felipe Reef, is 175 nautical miles from Palawan, an island of the Philippines. The feature is within the Philippine "exclusive economic zone"....Since December, large Chinese trawlers have lashed themselves together and parked in formations near Whitsun. Vessels come and go, but the numbers have gone up over time. They have not been engaged in fishing...
Washington [in 2012] brokered an agreement for [China and the Philippines] to withdraw their craft [from Scarborough Shoal], but only Manila complied. Beijing has been in firm control of Scarborough Shoal ever since. The Obama administration, despite the brazen Chinese seizure, decided not to enforce the agreement it had just arranged.
Worse, by doing nothing to hold China accountable for deception and aggression at Scarborough, Washington empowered the most belligerent elements in the Chinese political system by showing everybody else in Beijing that aggression worked....
James Holmes, who holds the J. C. Wylie Chair of Maritime Strategy at the U.S. Naval War College, told Gatestone that China's current actions at Whitsun are "an offensive that looks like conquest by increments." Fanell maintains that not opposing China's actions at Whitsun will soon put both Taiwan and the Senkakus at risk...Read all.

Propaganda: Are Americans Being Taken In By It? | Intellectual Takeout
- They are without the ability or tools to think through and analyze media messages.
"After taking a hiatus from watching news programs for a while, a friend of mine recently turned on MSNBC. Following this experience, he said something along the following lines:
“I’m done. I just can’t take it. The news cycle is continual repetition over and over again.”
His statement recalled something I read while paging through The Fallacy Detective, a simple and fun logic book for children written by Hans and Nathaniel Bluedorn.
In their section on propaganda, the authors define repetition as “repeating a message loudly and very often in the hope that we will believe it.”
They go on to say that:
“Repetition is also being used when we are bombarded constantly with someone’s viewpoint. The person thinks that if he tells his viewpoint often, then people will believe it.”...Read all.

Dr. Fauci praises himself for COVID-19 vaccines: 'May have been the best decision that I've ever made' - TheBlaze:
National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Anthony Fauci appeared to praise himself for the quick development of COVID vaccines during a CNN special Sunday night about the coronavirus pandemic and medical experts' response to the virus. During the interview, Fauci seemed to take credit for the development of the nation's COVID-19 vaccines without apparently even mentioning President Donald Trump and his administration's Operation Warp Speed, the New York Post pointed out.

US Olympic trials: Athletes can kneel during anthem, raise fists | wzzm13.com
- The U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Committee released guidance about the “racial and social demonstrations” that will and won't be allowed at U.S. Olympic trials.
"The U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Committee will not sanction athletes for raising their fists or kneeling during the national anthem at Olympic trials, previewing a contentious policy it expects to stick to when many of those same athletes head to Tokyo this summer.
The USOPC released a nine-page document Tuesday to offer guidance about the sort of “racial and social demonstrations” that will and won't be allowed by the hundreds who will compete in coming months for spots on the U.S. team.
The document comes three months after the federation, heeding calls from its athletes, determined it would not enforce longstanding rules that ban protests at the Olympics...Read all.

Today’s blacklisted Americans: California’s ethnic studies uses Nazi language to demonize Jews
Today’s blacklisted Americans: California’s ethnic studies uses Nazi language to demonize Jews
They’re coming for you next: The new California ethnic studies program that is expected to be imposed on all the state’s classrooms is in fact based entirely on critical race theory (CRT) that makes whites the devil and all other minorities its victims, except Jews, who are targeted for special condemnation using language reminiscent of Nazi Germany.
Because of outrage over the bigoted nature of the earlier versions, two revisions have been offered, both of which really changed nothing of substance. The last version however added the following:
...The Jewish Journal points out that Jews are the only group in the curriculum for whom the term “privilege” is used. And this privilege is not earned by way of talent, or educational and professional attainment, but rather trickery. The ESMC, echoing Nazi propaganda about Jews as impostors and appropriators hiding in plain sight, points out that American Jews often change their names (“this practice of name-changing continues to the present day”) to change their rank in the social hierarchy....next year in San Mateo County, world history will be replaced by ethnic studies.[emphasis in original]
There is a lot more in the article at the link.
Overall it outlines the racist, white- and Jew-hating nature of critical race theory, about to be imposed on all students in California’s public school system, even as that system removes any teaching about world history and the Nazi genocide of millions of Jews...Read all.

Who Asian-Americans Should Really Fear by Carl Jackson
- So-called “white nationalists” are not attacking Asian- Americans.
"If we’re being honest, the only ethnic group Asian-Americans should fear being physically assaulted by are blacks.
Sadly, there’s nothing new about attacks on Asians in America.
What is new is the media’s obsession with the issue.
Speaking from my own experience, attacks on Asians are all too common, particularly in the ‘hood.
As a black kid and wannabe thug growing up in Los Angeles, I knew some great Asian people.
That didn’t stop me or my friends from buying into the stereotypes that they were arrogant and purposefully buying up store fronts and property in “our” neighborhoods to push us out...Read all.

Mutations could make current Covid vaccines ineffective soon: Survey
- Mutations of the coronavirus could render current vaccines ineffective within a year, according to a survey of experts in 28 countries.
- Of those surveyed, almost a third gave a time frame of nine months or less.
Fewer than 1 in 8 said they believed that mutations would never render the current vaccines ineffective.
Two-thirds thought that we had “a year or less before the virus mutates to the extent that the majority of first-generation vaccines are rendered ineffective and new or modified vaccines are required.”...Read all.

WARNING: Here's who's REALLY behind 'spooky, right-wing' extremism - TheBlaze
WARNING: Here's who's REALLY behind 'spooky, right-wing' extremism - TheBlaze:
Over the past year, the left has tried to paint conservatives as "spooky, right-wing" extremists who want to destroy the nation. But true conservatives know that's not true. However, there is a dangerous global movement that fits this "spooky" definition — masquerading as "right-wing" — and it's gaining momentum. It's called Traditionalism, with a capital "T."
This week on "The Glenn Beck Podcast," author and award-winning expert on the radical right Professor Benjamin Teitelbaum joined Glenn to define Traditionalism and explain why it's exactly how the left wants to paint conservatives — but that couldn't be further from the truth.
All Trump’s Codependents
All Trump’s Codependents
“My predecessor. Oh God, I miss him.”
So spoke Joe Biden Thursday in his first press conference as president.
In February Mr. Biden had said he was “tired of talking about Donald Trump” and vowed to spend the next four years talking about the American people.
Evidently it’s not to be.
Mr. Biden’s presser was chockablock with references to Mr. Trump, including the accusation that he’d let unaccompanied minors “starve to death” on the other side of our southern border.
Mr. Biden’s inability to stop talking about his predecessor speaks to the Trump codependency that has followed the Trump presidency....
