SPECIAL REPORT – Communist China has created a network of overseas police stations to extend its repressive reach globally. There are reportedly at least 54 of these police service stations across five continents, in cities from Toronto to Dublin. But why is there one on U.S. soil — in the Big Apple? Earlier news reports noted the existence of Communist Chinese police stations in leftist-run Canada. This sparked an outcry in Canada and demands for an investigation, but now we learn they are also in the United States. This is outrageous and unacceptable. These Chinese repression outposts on U.S. soil must also be investigated and shut…

ANALYSIS – Yes, it’s time to take back the military from woke radicals. Republicans plan to target the subversive and damaging leftist policies and leaders infecting the U.S. military once they take back the House in November. And not a moment too soon. This is according to two House Republican leaders in Military.com. “All this wokeness in the military, we are going to be aggressively trying to root that stuff out,” said Rep. Mike Rogers, R-Ala., the House Armed Services Committee ranking member. He added that the GOP will be putting military personnel issues at the forefront of the agenda if his party retakes control…

ANALYSIS – President Joe Biden just made his most strident warning to Russia over Vladimir Putin’s threats to use nuclear weapons over Ukraine. While Biden was criticized for making these serious claims at a fundraiser, possibly unscripted, the comments underscore the increasing danger of the Russian nuclear threat. They also highlight the need for increased preparation and civil defense measures in the U.S. and NATO countries. As AP reports: Speaking at a Democratic fundraiser, Biden said Thursday night that Russian President Vladimir Putin is “a guy I know fairly well” and the Russian leader is “not joking when he talks about…

ANALYSIS – As I wrote earlier, Russian Leader Vladimir Putin has painted himself into a corner in Ukraine, and the chances of his using nuclear weapons to seize victory from the jaws of defeat are growing daily. Putin’s threats grew louder last week when he said he was prepared to “use all the means available to us,” including “various weapons of destruction.” “I’m not bluffing,” he added. While some believe Putin IS bluffing, despite his protestations to the contrary, one particular Russian capability should concern us all. That is Russia’s possession of large numbers of tactical, low-yield and micro-nuclear weapons. This…

SPECIAL REPORT – Since the start of Russia’s unprovoked war of conquest against Ukraine, Vladimir Putin has been making veiled and not-so-veiled threats of using nuclear weapons in Ukraine and against NATO. While mostly seen as a coercive bluff, those threats have grown increasingly worrisome as Ukraine hammers Russian forces into retreat in the south and east. Putin’s botched ‘partial mobilization and the domestic turmoil it has provoked are adding to the pressure for drastic measures. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCqzN1n8xnA&t=18s While his conventional forces have proven fairly inept and riddled with issues, his nuclear forces’ capabilities are far more straightforward. So, what are…
