China Celebrates Biden Administration Deleting Taiwan Flag Tweet

taiwan-flag

 “Biden is weak on China. And appeasement never works”

Chinese state media on Friday claimed victory after the Biden administration deleted a tweet that included the flag of the nation of Taiwan.

Government outlets celebrated the deletion as the Biden administration showing its respect for Beijing’s “One China” policy and as a humiliation for Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen. China’s interpretation of the “One China” principle is that that there is only one China in the world, and the Republic of China (Taiwan) is a province of the People’s Republic of China. The United States abides by the “One China” policy, which stipulates that only one China exists without specifying which country is China. Taiwan’s “One China” policy states that only one legitimate China exists, and its capital is Taipei.

NEW VIDEO: Black-Clad Hoodlums Were First Up the Stairs, First to Smash Windows at US Capitol — But FBI Refuses to Look for Them – Weird, Huh?

 Via Billy

 

So, just how many FBI informants and infiltrators were involved in the Jan. 6 riot?

And why is the FBI refusing to look for two of the most violent protesters?

Bobby Powell the host of “The Truth is Viral” podcast was invited on OAN last week to discuss his viral video that exposed two likely FBI informants who were filmed breaking windows, attacking the building, and even pushing people inside the US Capitol.

The True Cause of the War Between the States


 

If our foundations are destroyed, our nation will be destroyed.

I have been studying the War Between the States for 53 years. In all those years, the one quotation I have read which summarizes the true reason for the differences between the North and the South which led to that war was stated by James Henley Thornwell (1812-1862). He was the President of Columbia Theological Seminary in Columbia, South Carolina, founder of the Southern Presbyterian Review, and editor of the Southern Quarterly Review. This is what he said in the Southern Literary Messenger for July 1851:

“The parties in this conflict are not merely Abolitionists and Slaveholders; they are Atheists, Socialists, Communists, Red Republicans, Jacobins on the one side, and the friends of order and regulated freedom on the other. In one word, the world is the battle ground, Christianity and Atheism the combatants, and the progress of humanity the stake. One party seems to regard society, with all its complicated interests, its divisions and subdivisions, as the machinery of man, which, as it has been invented and arranged by his ingenuity and skill, may be taken to pieces, reconstructed, altered or repaired, as experience shall indicate defects or confusion in the original plan. The other party beholds in it the ordinance of God; and contemplates ‘this little scene of human life’ as placed in the middle of a scheme, whose beginnings must be traced to the unfathomable depths of the past, and whose development and completion must be sought in the still more unfathomable depths of the future – a scheme, as Butler expresses it, ‘not fixed, but progressive, in every way incomprehensible;’ in which, consequently, irregularity is the confession of our ignorance, disorder the proof of our blindness, and with which it is as awful temerity to tamper as to sport with the name of God.”

An Affront to the State

Any Republican and most Democrats who are not standing against Critical Race Theory are complicit, corrupt and in violation of their oath of office. They are derelict in their support of the Constitution and the 14th Amendment under the equal protection laws, in this case, the HIPAA restrictions against having to volunteer medical information. Likewise, any supporter of required vaccinations (injections in this case) is in violation of the Nuremburg protocols and are on the same moral level as the Nazi government officials who inspired the protocols.

The evil before us raises its nasty head, devouring children and the elderly, stepping on the rest to get to them. This is the vision of our government that often comes to mind whenever the subject of Covid or sexual topics arise. It was demonstrated by Cuomo in the early stages of the pandemic, for which he has suffered no political, much less legal penalty.

How long ago was it when children were held in the highest regard, rather than a commodity to be served up to the governmental “authority?” It’s not just a “sign of the times” it’s a black mark on all of society that they have turned their faces from the horrors of child manipulation and sexual exploitation. In the annals of history, no matter how vehemently one disavows their role, America, in this era, will be seen as in the clutches of child predators.

Don’t Try to Appease the Mob

 

..........President Trump was such a breath of fresh air. Yes, there may have been times when he was wrong, but he never backpedaled in public in response to the mob mentality. He always stood up for himself, forcing the mob to move on to something else. Let that be a lesson for all of us.

It often seems that cancel culture is in full effect today wherever you look. Say the wrong thing or anger the wrong people and you could easily find a mob calling for your head. Many people have lost their jobs for a single social media post that angered someone. Never underestimate the power of mobs. But remember also never to appease the mob, because its anger won’t be sated until you suffer.

The recent case of an Atlanta IKEA is a good case in point. The restaurant decided to serve its employees a special meal this year for Juneteenth, choosing a soul food-inspired menu. The food to be served included fried chicken, mac and cheese, collard greens, and watermelon. Predictably, the choices outraged many activists who accused the store of racial stereotyping and not allowing people of color to choose the food that was served.

The Genesis of Our American Collective Meltdown

                        

Our adversaries can’t quite believe their good fortune. Had they thought up ways to divide and impoverish America, to see its cities burned, and looted, to weaken its economy and currency, to erode the unity of its once-feared military, and to entrench the most effective critics of America in America—not in Beijing, Moscow, Pyongyang, or Tehran, but in corporate boardrooms, campuses, newsrooms, Hollywood, Wall Street, and the Pentagon—they could not have improved on what has happened in 2020-21, the era of our collective meltdown.

This Fourth of July holiday we might pause for a moment from our festivities to ask how we collectively lost our minds over the last 15 months—and are we yet regaining any semblance of our sanity?

A pandemic caused by the leak of a Chinese-engineered virus and its coverup was cause enough for nationwide madness. But the spread of COVID-19 was followed by a nationalized and often politicized “flatten-the-curve” quarantine that soon ensured a stir-crazy nation. Tens of millions saw no people, and heard nothing human other than what was fed to them through television and computers. No wonder they grew paranoid, conspiratorial, and angry, and soon forgot the therapeutic nature of personal interaction and the shared humanity of being in the physical presence of others.

The 7 Most American Guns

 

Baseball, hot dogs, apple pie, and M16s. Firearms are an undeniable part of the American identity thanks to the Second Amendment and the nation’s spirit of independence and self-sufficiency. The United States was forged in steel and gunpowder, and from the Colonial Era onward the history of America has been tied to the history of the gun.

Which guns are most American? Sure, that’s a big question to tackle, but Independence Day is all about celebrating the grand sweep of the American story, so let’s take a look at seven firearms that decisively shaped America and shaped the perception of the United States around the world.

Key Crossing Falls to Taliban and Opens Direct Access to Iran, One Third of Afghanistan Now in Insurgent Hands

Biden rejected comparisons to the U.S. departure from South Vietnam at the end of the Vietnam War.“The Taliban is not the North Vietnamese army. They’re not — they’re not remotely comparable in terms of capability. There’s going to be no circumstance where you see people being lifted off the roof of a embassy of the United States from Afghanistan. It is not at all comparable,” he said.

'No obligation': Joe Biden opposed helping South Vietnamsese reach U.S.

Days after The Washington Post, in an editorial about President Joe Biden’s Afghanistan policy, editorialized that “tragedy appears to be unfolding more quickly than even many of the pessimists imagined,” Taliban troops cemented their hold on the deteriorating nation.

The Taliban on Thursday seized an Afghan border crossing with Iran, according to The Associated Press, which cited reports it received from an Afghan official and Iranian media.

The seizure was the fifth border crossing to fall under Taliban control in the past week, Reuters reported. Borders with Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, China and Pakistan are now controlled by the Taliban.
