ANALYSIS – Just one more reason for law-abiding American citizens to make their gun purchase in cash; credit card companies will now be able to track your gun buys, paving the way for a global gun registry. The move only applies to gun stores, which critics also note unfairly singles out these businesses for added scrutiny.

ANALYSIS – While NASA’s Artemis moon mission has suffered massive cost overruns and numerous delays, including the two recent last-minute launch scrubs on the launch pad, China isn’t happy with America’s new moon program. As a matter of fact, as shown by its state-run media mouthpieces, it is freaking out. And it has good reasons for losing it. The Artemis program, greatly accelerated by former president Donald Trump in 2019, combined with Trump’s creation of a U.S. Space Force, now aims to put American, and possibly allied, boots on the moon by 2025. This will make America the only country…
ANALYSIS – As a long-time critic of the communist regime ruling China and someone who regularly warns of the existential danger to America and its allies posed by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its People’s Liberation Army (PLA), I have also noted some of its profound weaknesses. And also how we need to exploit them. One of the major weaknesses facing the CCP is demographic. Due to its own draconian one-child policy, now belatedly rescinded, China’s population will soon start shrinking fast. As reported by Fortune, in July, the head of population for China’s National Health Commission told a…

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), an independent organization that reports to the UN, Tuesday issued a report on the Russian-held Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Station (ZNPP) in Ukraine, Europe’s largest. Months of fighting near ZNPP have created extensive damage and an “unsustainable” situation going forward, the UN’s nuclear watchdog agency said Tuesday. The report warns of the possibility of a nuclear emergency due to continued shelling and other military activity and strongly advises that an agreement be reached to create a demilitarized ‘security zone’ around the plant to protect it from potentially catastrophic damage. The report follows a daring and unprecedented inspection by IAEA…

ANALYSIS – Twice-failed presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton stupidly jumped into the Donald Trump Mar-a-Lago controversy Tuesday when she falsely and shamelessly claimed that, unlike Trump’s holding of classified documents at his home, classified documents were not transmitted on her unsecured private email servers. She went on to write that she “had zero emails that were classified.” Why she would make such an outrageous and demonstrably false statement is beyond me, though Nazi propagandist Goebbels comes to mind. Many of her supporters won’t bother reading anything else and will simply take her word for it and repeat her lie. https://twitter.com/HillaryClinton/status/1567164268172173315?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1567164268172173315%7Ctwgr%5E014b058862d819c4420f1c5be11fa39e5516a0fc%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.theblaze.com%2Fnews%2Fhillary-clinton-claims-no-classified-documents Hillary’s…

It’s déjà vu all over again, as communist China looks to establish a naval base in increasingly communist Nicaragua, just like the Soviets did in the 1980s. But in one area it’s not just a similarity between the two eras and superpowers, because in Nicaragua today, the same exact Marxist dictator in sunglasses is in charge again 40 years later. Under the leadership of aspiring leftist despot Daniel Ortega, Nicaragua severed diplomatic relations with Taiwan last year in favor of new ties with China’s communist regime. Nicaragua also seized the Taiwanese Embassy in Managua and transferred it to China in…
