China’s Communist Regime Tightens Grip on Christmas Celebrations

By Michael Zhuang | The Epoch Times Authorities limit church services, campus activity, and public displays, leaving holiday events largely confined to officially sanctioned venues. Christmas Eve passed quietly across much of China this year as the Chinese communist regime tightened restrictions on religious gatherings, public celebrations, and even seasonal decorations, according to interviews with pastors, Christians, and residents across the country. House churches in several provinces said planned Christmas services were blocked by state security officials, universities warned students against public celebrations or social media posts related to Christmas, and police in Shanghai detained people participating in spontaneous street activities. Commercial Christmas ...

Trump Targets State-Level AI Rules Amid Concerns Over Innovation

By Wire Services | The Denver Gazette President Donald Trump signed an executive order Thursday aimed at blocking states from crafting their own regulations for artificial intelligence, saying the burgeoning industry is at risk of being stifled by a patchwork of onerous rules while in a battle with Chinese competitors for supremacy. Members of Congress from both parties, as well as civil liberties and consumer rights groups, have pushed for more regulations on AI, saying there is not enough oversight for the powerful technology. Business groups, including in Colorado, have argued against state-by-state regulations, arguing the federal government should tackle this topic and any law passed should apply nationwide, instead of a patchwork of regulations. Last year,...

China’s covert SIM farms exposed: Federal agents uncover nationwide spy network

By Steve Baker & Joseph M. Hanneman | Blaze Media Millions of linked SIM cards carry out surveillance, target leaders for harm, and should be considered ‘acts of war.’ The discovery of SIM farms that threatened cellular networks in New York City is only the tip of a massive nationwide network run by the Chinese Communist government that poses an immediate threat to critical American infrastructure and has led to terrorist acts including hoax SWAT raids at the homes of national leaders, Blaze News has learned. Sources in the Department of Homeland Security and the U.S. intelligence community said these SIM card networks were operating in the United States as early as 2004. They have proliferated exponentially since President Donald J. Trump was re-elected to the presidency in N...

China Hails TikTok Deal as ‘Win-Win’ While U.S. Pushes for Control

By Jim Pollard with Reuters | Asia Financial Chinese shareholders’ stake will be cut to below 20%, while Andreessen, Silver Lake and Oracle look set to be key players in the new firm running TikTok in the US China has hailed the agreement reached with US trade officials on the operations of TikTok in the United States as a “win-win” deal. The framework agreement achieved in Madrid on Monday will see the US operations of the popular short-video app switch to local owners because of a law passed last year by Congress, which deemed Chinese ownership of TikTok a national security risk and that parent company Bytedance must divest its holding or face a ban. The deal is expected to see Bytedance and Chinese shareholders’ stake reduced to below 20%, while tech giant Oracle, venture ca...

Polis Claims Trump Tariffs Hurt Jobs but Many See Benefits

By Marianne Goodland | The Gazette A report released Thursday by Colorado’s governor said President Donald Trump’s tariffs policy is disrupting the state’s economy and courting a recessionary scenario. State economists have, in fact, been sounding the risk of a scenario for a year — preceding both the White House’s tariffs changes and the congressional budget that Democrats blamed for Colorado’s $800 million deficit. As recently as June, analysts said the chances of a recession in the next year stood at 50% and climbing. Since Trump took office, tariffs have increased sevenfold to about 21% in Colorado, according to the report. Nationwide, it’s closer to 24%. A year ago, the tariffs averaged around 3%. The last time tariffs went that high occurred in 1910, Gov. Jar...

A Strong America Requires Strong Factories

By Riley Moore | Commentary, The Blaze America’s hollowed industrial base is our greatest vulnerability — and China’s greatest advantage. We can fix it. Our country is standing at a crossroads. Neither the world nor America’s place in it is what it was a generation ago. The unipolar moment is over. And yet, many in the Republican Party seek to claim the mantle of America First while continuing the same failed adventurism of the past. National conservatism as a movement agrees that these people and ideas must be stopped. But we have failed to check their influence in the party largely because we have not offered an alternative that both meets the real threats to American security and balances national interest, the deterrent effect, industrial capability, and political will. ...

Cartels turn to China to wash billions in U.S. financial system

By Brett Rowland | Just the News Treasury's Financial Crimes Enforcement Network said banks flagged about $312 billion in transactions.

Garbo: If true, it’s the greatest violation of American sovereignty in modern history

By C. J. Garbo | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice According to new reports, the FBI has obtained intelligence confirming that China has produced and distributed fake U.S. driver’s licenses to facilitate fraudulent mail-in ballot voting. Let that sink in. If true, this is not just foreign interference in our elections; it is a coordinated attack on American sovereignty. And the gravity of such a revelation cannot be overstated. This would represent not only a betrayal by a foreign adversary but a failure, or worse, a complicity within our own institutions. What’s worse is the possibility that this operation didn’t occur in a vacuum. It may have been aided, ignored, or tolerated by political actors here at home. If so, we’re not just looking at corruption. We’re looking at tre...

FBI Suppressed Evidence of CCP 2020 Election Plot, Sources Say

By Matt Margolis | PJ Media There’s been a new, disturbing development in the case of the Chinese plot to interfere in the 2020 election. As PJ Media previously reported, on Monday, FBI Director Kash Patel handed Congress an intelligence report exposing a Chinese plot to interfere in the 2020 election. The report details how Chinese operatives mass-produced fake U.S. driver’s licenses to flood the system with fraudulent mail-in ballots, which helped Joe Biden in the process. However, the intel wasn’t investigated, corroborated, or acted on. In fact, it was quietly pulled from intelligence agencies even as then-FBI Director Chris Wray told Congress there were “no known plots” of foreign interference. retty bad, right? It gets worse. The report was sent out on Aug. 24, 2020, but ...

Intel Erased: FBI Told Agencies to Destroy China Election Plot Evidence

By John Solomon | Just the News Memo turned over by FBI Director Kash Patel to Sen. Chuck Grassley details plot to use fake driver’s licenses to swing 2020 election to Democrat's favor. Aconfidential human source told FBI counter-intelligence in summer 2020 that China’s communist government was shipping fake driver’s licenses to the United States to manufacture “tens of thousands of fraudulent mail-in votes” for Joe Biden, according to a raw intelligence report distributed to federal agencies that was reviewed by Just the News. The report – one of two sent Monday by FBI Director Kash Patel to Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley – was sent to U.S. intelligence agencies on Aug. 24, 2020, as an uncorroborated advisory, then suddenly recalled with little explanation oth...
