"The CCP has launched an orchestrated campaign, across all of its many tentacles in Chinese government and society, to exploit the openness of our institutions in order to destroy them,” Barr said, according to Fox News.
He said the People's Republic of China is using currency manipulation, theft of intellectual property, cyberattacks and espionage, the general "wide array of predatory and often unlawful practices."
The CCP's ambitions could be "the most important issue for our nation and the world in the 21st century."
"Sadly, examples of American business bowing to Beijing are legion," he said, citing Hollywood.
The entertainment industry "regularly censors its own movies to appease the Chinese Communist Party," he said.

(FEE) – Next month marks the beginning of the 2020/2021 academic year in several US states, and pressure is mounting to reopen schools even as the COVID-19 pandemic persists. Florida, for example, is now considered the nation's No. 1 hot spot for the virus; yet on Monday, the state's education commissioner issued an executive order mandating that all Florida schools open in August with in-person learning and their full suite of student services.
Many parents are balking at back-to-school, choosing instead to homeschool their children this fall.
Gratefully, this virus seems to be sparing most children, and prominent medical organizations such as the American Academy of Pediatrics have urged schools to reopen this fall with in-person learning. For some parents, fear of the virus itself is a primary consideration in delaying a child's return to school, especially if the child has direct contact with individuals who are most vulnerable to COVID-19's worst effects.

( FOX NEWS ) – Georgia Gov .
Brian Kemp is banning cities and counties from mandating that masks be @ @ @ @ @ the spread of COVID-19 .
Kemp 's executive order is a revised extension of guidelines @ @ @ @ @ start of the pandemic , which encouraged , rather than required , residents to wear @ @ @ @ @ governor has called implementing such a measure `` a bridge too far . ''
The @ @ @ @ @ : `` State , county , or municipal law , order , ordinance , rule @ @ @ @ @ persons to wear face coverings , masks , face shields , or any other Personal @ @ @ @ @ of public accommodation or on public property are suspended to the extent that they are @ @ @ @ @ Order . ''

Calling mask mandates a "bridge too far," Republican Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp is banning cities and counties in his state from requiring face coverings in public to limit the spread of the coronavirus.
Kemp issued an executive order revising the extension of guidelines initiated at the beginning of the pandemic, which encouraged instead of required wearing masks in public, Fox News reported.
The governor's executive order reads in part: "State, county, or municipal law, order, ordinance, rule, or regulation that requires persons to wear face coverings, masks, face shields, or any other Personal Protective Equipment while in places of public accommodation or on public property are suspended to the extent that they are more restrictive than this Executive Order."
Kemp's communications director, Candice Broce, clarified that the order means "no local action can be more or less restrictive than ours."
TRENDING: Is this the 'Final Battle'?
The governor "continues to strongly encourage Georgians to wear masks in public," she said, but he believes "local mask mandates are unenforceable."
Several major cities, however, have defied Kemp, including Atlanta, Savannah, Athens and Augusta.
Savannah Mayor Van Johnson said police will write $500 citations to businesses that don't enforce the city's mandate.
"It is officially official. Governor Kemp does not give a damn about us," Johnson wrote on Twitter Wednesday night. "Every man and woman for himself/herself. Ignore the science and survive the best you can."
"In #Savannah, we will continue to keep the faith and follow the science," he wrote. "Masks will continue to be available!"
Mask confusion
The "science," however, is not conclusive, with contested and conflicting studies, and top health authorities reversing themselves on the issue, including the World Health Organization, Dr. Anthony Fauci and Surgeon General Dr. Jerome Adams.
Similarly, in April, the England Deputy Chief Medical Officer Jonathan Van-Tam claimed "there is no evidence that general wearing of face masks by the public who are well affects the spread of the disease in our society." In January, Public Health England declared there was "very little evidence of widespread benefit from [mask] use outside of these clinical settings."
The Centers for Disease Control recommends wearing cloth masks because it can "help individuals cover a cough or sneeze; reducing the spread of germs" and "can be a visual reminder to practice social distancing."
Georgia reported 3,871 new confirmed coronavirus cases and 37 deaths on Wednesday, the second-highest total since the start of the pandemic.
Other states, Fox News reported, have ordered residents to wear masks in public, including Alabama, which announced a ban Wednesday.
In May, Fauci, the top White House infectious disease expert, said in a CNN interview that he wears a face mask to serve as a "symbol" of what "you should be doing" amid the coronavirus pandemic.
"I want to protect myself and protect others, and also because I want to make it be a symbol for people to see that that's the kind of thing you should be doing," Fauci said.
In March, however, he told Dr. Jon LaPook, chief medical correspondent for CBS News, that, in general, "people should not be walking around with masks."
LaPook: There's a lot of confusion among people, and misinformation, surrounding face masks. Can you discuss that? Fauci: The masks are important for someone who’s infected to prevent them from infecting someone else… Right now in the United States, people should not be walking around with masks. LaPook: You’re sure of it? Because people are listening really closely to this. Fauci: There’s no reason to be walking around with a mask. When you’re in the middle of an outbreak, wearing a mask might make people feel a little bit better and it might even block a droplet, but it’s not providing the perfect protection that people think that it is. And, often, there are unintended consequences — people keep fiddling with the mask and they keep touching their face. LaPook: And can you get some schmutz, sort of staying inside there? Fauci: Of course, of course. But, when you think masks, you should think of health care providers needing them and people who are ill. The people who, when you look at the films of foreign countries and you see 85% of the people wearing masks — that’s fine, that’s fine. I’m not against it. If you want to do it, that’s fine. LaPook: But it can lead to a shortage of masks? Fauci: Exactly, that’s the point. It could lead to a shortage of masks for the people who really need it.
In an interview published Wednesday by InStyle.com, Fauci said he doesn't regret his statements in March.
"I don't regret anything I said then because in the context of the time in which I said it, it was correct," he said. "We were told in our task force meetings that we have a serious problem with the lack of PPEs and masks for the health providers who are putting themselves in harm's way every day to take care of sick people."
Fauci added that when it "became clear that we could get the infection could be spread by asymptomatic carriers who don't know they're infected, that made it very clear that we had to strongly recommend masks."
"And also, it soon became clear that we had enough protective equipment and that cloth masks and homemade masks were as good as masks that you would buy from surgical supply stores," he said. "So in the context of when we were not strongly recommending it, it was the correct thing."

"Kim Gardner has an abysmal record in prosecuting violent crime, has recently released and been complicit in the release of dozens and dozens of inmates who have been charged with violent crimes, and has a record of making politically motivated decisions not based on the law," he added. "So, this is certainly something to watch."
He said Gardner has a record of making "politically motivated decisions."
Gardner is one of the prosecutors whose campaign accepted significant contributions, tens of thousands of dollars, from the far-left billionaire activist George Soros.

In-person events will be held at the Wisconsin Center on the third-floor exhibition area.
The report said there likely will be no delegates and a small media contingent instead of the thousands that were once expected.
Crowd counts are expected to not surpass about 1,000.
Presumptive nominee Joe Biden intends to make his acceptance speech in person.
But, otherwise, convention planners will use live broadcasts.

On Thursday, responding to a question at the White House news briefing, press secretary Kaylee McEnaney said the "derelict mayor of Chicago should step up and ask for federal help, because she's doing a very poor job at securing her streets."
Many black analysts and scholars, including Thomas Sowell, Walter Williams and Shelby Steele, believe the violence and poverty problem won't be resolved until the problem of fatherlessness is addressed.
In his new, highly acclaimed film, "Uncle Tom: An Oral History of the American Black Conservative," Larry Elder contends the problem is rooted in "bad government policy."

wnd--2020-07-16--How 'Con. Inc.' sells out dissidents to the SPLC

They 're unwilling to defend true dissidents , but Beltway lite libertarians and Con Inkers are forever genuflecting to privileged legacy journalists , who can afford to voluntarily leave their rich gigs in `` protest '' of cancel culture .
The right has n't shut up about the New Yorker 's Andrew Sullivan , who is far less banal than the New York Times ' Bari Weiss .
Both belong to the `` nothing new , more of the same '' neoconservative tradition .
Her resignation antics are a storm in a C-cup ; his `` defiant '' departure is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ men ) .
For a more meaningful scandal , to the right at least , consider the farce of a conservative news and opinion organization ( founded by a dragon slayer of a broadcaster ) , which has published lacerating pieces condemning America 's foremost hate group , yet has proceeded to purge writers , in compliance with the demands of said shakedown hate group .
American conservatism capitulating to America-haters ?
Negotiating with terrorists ?
Hypocrisy ?
Yes , yes and yes .
Prone is the natural position of the Establishment Republican @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his latest opportunistic , political permutation may be .
TRENDING : Major U.S. city votes on letting women go topless in city parks The news site is the Daily Caller .
The hate group is the Southern Poverty Law Center ( SPLC ) .
The ransom demands issue from the illiterati of the SPLC , who regularly publish lists of – and hit pieces against – untouchable dissidents .
They then proceed against us with all the vigor of a `` money grabbing slander machine , '' to quote John Stossel , a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ corrupt syndicate that lives off destroying people .
For his part , economist Thomas DiLorenzo has skillfully pried apart the revenue-rich , `` racial racketeering '' of the Southern Poverty Law Center , showing it to be nothing more than a `` hate group hedge fund . ''
Wrote the great leftist journalist Alexander Cockburn , in the New York Press , in 2007 : `` I 've long regarded Morris Dees and his Southern Poverty Law Center as collectively one of the greatest frauds in American life .
The reasons : a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ low-income contributors into unbolting ill-spared dollars year after year to an organization that now has an endowment of more than $ 100 million . ''
An organization that shakes down paupers and pensioners to support its `` ritualized forms of defamation . ''
One would expect the Daily Caller , which has written against cancel culture and the Southern Poverty law Center , not to capitulate to such rot .
But one would be wrong to expect principled positions from any Con Inc. org .
Opportunistic and prone are the only principles known @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they have no philosophy to speak of .
Whatever political raiment he happens to be cloaked in – defeatism , hypocrisy and betrayal are the default positions of the D.C. `` conservative '' swamp dweller .
And so , July 7 saw Geoffrey Ingersoll , Daily Caller 's editor in chief , assume the supine position in a Twitter exchange , which ceded the terms of debate to the Democrats and their most diabolical proxies .
The Twitter entity before which Mr. Ingersoll was kneeling metaphorically in contrition was an account called `` @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the worst , '' attests Steve Bannon .
They appear to be attached to a shakedown hub of cancel-culture activism .
Illiteracy precludes any manifesto , but the constant nattering on a Twitter account has earned these cyberthugs a Wikipedia page .
First up on my Twitter feed , July 7 , was a tweet from gutsy reporter Patrick Howley , founder of Big League Politics .
`` Geoff Ingersoll , best known for ranting sexist slurs at @ CassandraRules , … wants everyone to know he does NOT know Ilana Mercer '' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ league , pal '' Chimed in the clever and combative Cassandra Fairbanks of the `` Gateway Pundit '' : '' I do n't know [ ilana ] , but if Geoff is denying knowing her to save his ass , she must be super interesting . ''
`` I really really like a bunch of people at Daily Caller , but Geoff is probably the most dull and basic neocon bitch in any dc newsroom . ''
All the while , I 'm thinking : How odd .
I certainly know Mr. Ingersoll @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hope that this is not about the fabulous segment written about me by the aforementioned SPLC , the `` hate group hedge fund , '' on Aug. 16 , 2017 , I keep it light .
`` Dear Patrick and Cassandra : What is this about ?
Thanks for spelling my name correctly .
No idea why Mr. Ingersoll ca n't .
He did in his correspondence with me .
LOL . ''
Beneath Patrick 's feisty throwdown is Mr. Ingersoll 's nervous tweet to his tormentors , the `` Sleeping Giants '' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Mercer ?
Never stepped foot in our offices .
Who else ?
[ Scott ] Greer ?
He left BEFORE we found out . ''
Titled `` The Daily Caller has a White Nationalist Problem , '' the SPLC 's hit piece is an asinine collection of non sequiturs , easily refuted in a society that values reason .
But that 's no longer America .
And that 's not the Con Inkers – the con artists formerly known as neoconservatives and Establishment Republicans before that , whose aim is to pacify the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fact , what the SPLC wrote about me was high praise – all the more reason for the Daily Caller to keep my animated copy on its anemic op-ed page .
You see , since the firing of former opinion editor Robert Mariani , the Caller 's op-ed page has been festooned by Israel First , neocon boilerplate .
Retread rot , really .
Its line-up of writers consists of unoriginal , Johnny-come-latelies to the America First position , which has been held by the dissident right for decades .
We do it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ editor whose op-ed page is littered with such insipid fare should warm to the rave review given to me by the SPLC .
Alas , only cowards shove principles aside .
For the Southern Poverty Law Center is `` America 's left-wing hate machine . ''
Its members advocate `` urban Marxism '' and `` Third World Communism . ''
Why , `` Weather Underground '' terrorist William Ayers used to manage a website sponsored by the SPLC .
`` Tolerance.org '' was its name .
In any event , my cordial correspondence @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of 2017 .
The Daily Caller had been featuring my weekly column for some time , under the editorial leadership of young Mariani , who liked to mix it up .
Mariani had just been shown the door , and my column , `` Flynn 's Sin Was Lying To Liars , Not Colluding With Russians , '' had been rejected .
A POLITE MR. INGERSOLL EXPLAINED the new Daily Caller editorial policy .
It would , seemingly , revolve around pacifying the Southern Poverty law Center : '' From : Geoffrey Ingersoll @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , December 7 , 2017 10:57 AM To : [ email protected ] Subject : Re : ILANA MERCER On Michael Flynn Injustice '' Frankly , I love your copy , but we 're going to hold on publishing you for a little while .

`` I am not a white nationalist .
I am a hard-right libertarian individualist .
I 'm also an ex-Israeli , Jewish , daughter of a rabbi still residing in South African , etc .
And , I 'm wedded to reality .

`` The SPLC article is easily refuted .

`` My column also seemed to be quite liked by DC readers , who , for the most , clearly do not see things through the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you consider giving me the opportunity to refute the SPLC smear against Daily Caller and myself ?

In this context , I am reminded of Alexei Sayle , a scrupulously honest British comedian , perceptive about human nature , too .
When asked what he does when he watches a really talented satirist performing , Sayle replied : `` I go back stage and tell him he 'll never make it . ''
) In response , an ever-cordial back-stabbing Mr. Ingersoll lied through his teeth : '' From : Geoffrey @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Tuesday , January 9 , 2018 5:43 AM To : Ilana Mercer [ email protected ] Subject : Re : Mercer column '' We 're talking to SPLC today about removing Richard Pollock 's name from their smear on us .
I will keep you posted .
That was on Jan. 9 , 2018 at 5:43 a.m .

Geoffrey Ingersoll , Daily Caller 's editor-in-chief ( and a Marine ) , would sooner purge writers like me and the many who agree with me than stand @ @ @ @ @ @ @ To his credit , Mr. Ingersoll was always respectful and cordial to me .
Against Mr. Ingersoll it must be said that he was utterly insincere .
He told this columnist that her excising was `` temporary . ''
While reassuring a dissident it had every intention of reinstating her , the Daily Caller , apparently , was , hypocritically , negotiating with the SPLC heisters for a reprieve , striking a Faustian deal with the devil .

The ransom demands issue from the illiterati of the SPLC, who regularly publish lists of – and hit pieces against – untouchable dissidents. They then proceed against us with all the vigor of a "money grabbing slander machine," to quote John Stossel, a veteran investigative journalist who has exposed this corrupt syndicate that lives off destroying people.
For his part, economist Thomas DiLorenzo has skillfully pried apart the revenue-rich, "racial racketeering" of the Southern Poverty Law Center, showing it to be nothing more than a "hate group hedge fund."
Wrote the great leftist journalist Alexander Cockburn, in the New York Press, in 2007: "I've long regarded Morris Dees and his Southern Poverty Law Center as collectively one of the greatest frauds in American life. The reasons: a relentless fundraising machine devoted to terrifying mostly low-income contributors into unbolting ill-spared dollars year after year to an organization that now has an endowment of more than $100 million."
An organization that shakes down paupers and pensioners to support its "ritualized forms of defamation."
One would expect the Daily Caller, which has written against cancel culture and the Southern Poverty law Center, not to capitulate to such rot. But one would be wrong to expect principled positions from any Con Inc. org.
Opportunistic and prone are the only principles known to the D.C. media types. For they have no philosophy to speak of. Whatever political raiment he happens to be cloaked in – defeatism, hypocrisy and betrayal are the default positions of the D.C. "conservative" swamp dweller.
And so, July 7 saw Geoffrey Ingersoll, Daily Caller's editor in chief, assume the supine position in a Twitter exchange, which ceded the terms of debate to the Democrats and their most diabolical proxies.
The Twitter entity before which Mr. Ingersoll was kneeling metaphorically in contrition was an account called "Sleeping Giants." "They're the worst," attests Steve Bannon. They appear to be attached to a shakedown hub of cancel-culture activism. Illiteracy precludes any manifesto, but the constant nattering on a Twitter account has earned these cyberthugs a Wikipedia page.
To thrive, thugs need enablers. Enter Mr. Ingersoll.
First up on my Twitter feed, July 7, was a tweet from gutsy reporter Patrick Howley, founder of Big League Politics.
"Geoff Ingersoll, best known for ranting sexist slurs at @CassandraRules, … wants everyone to know he does NOT know Ilana Mercer
"Lol. Ilana is out of your league, pal"
Chimed in the clever and combative Cassandra Fairbanks of the "Gateway Pundit":
"I don't know [ilana], but if Geoff is denying knowing her to save his ass, she must be super interesting."
Cassandra quickly rendered her assessment of Mr. Ingersoll:
"I really really like a bunch of people at Daily Caller, but Geoff is probably the most dull and basic neocon bitch in any dc newsroom."
All the while, I'm thinking: How odd. I certainly know Mr. Ingersoll. But since I'm hoping against hope that this is not about the fabulous segment written about me by the aforementioned SPLC, the "hate group hedge fund," on Aug. 16, 2017, I keep it light.
So, I jest:
"Dear Patrick and Cassandra: What is this about? Thanks for spelling my name correctly. No idea why Mr. Ingersoll can't. He did in his correspondence with me. LOL."
Beneath Patrick's feisty throwdown is Mr. Ingersoll's nervous tweet to his tormentors, the "Sleeping Giants":
"… Illana [sic] Mercer? Never stepped foot in our offices. Who else? [Scott] Greer? He left BEFORE we found out."
Titled "The Daily Caller has a White Nationalist Problem," the SPLC's hit piece is an asinine collection of non sequiturs, easily refuted in a society that values reason. But that's no longer America.
And that's not the Con Inkers – the con artists formerly known as neoconservatives and Establishment Republicans before that, whose aim is to pacify the left and deceive the right.
In fact, what the SPLC wrote about me was high praise – all the more reason for the Daily Caller to keep my animated copy on its anemic op-ed page.
You see, since the firing of former opinion editor Robert Mariani, the Caller's op-ed page has been festooned by Israel First, neocon boilerplate. Retread rot, really. Its line-up of writers consists of unoriginal, Johnny-come-latelies to the America First position, which has been held by the dissident right for decades. We do it best.
Principles aside, any op-ed editor whose op-ed page is littered with such insipid fare should warm to the rave review given to me by the SPLC.
Alas, only cowards shove principles aside. For the Southern Poverty Law Center is "America's left-wing hate machine." Its members advocate "urban Marxism" and "Third World Communism." Why, "Weather Underground" terrorist William Ayers used to manage a website sponsored by the SPLC. "Tolerance.org" was its name.
In any event, my cordial correspondence with Mr. Ingersoll commenced on Dec. 7 of 2017. The Daily Caller had been featuring my weekly column for some time, under the editorial leadership of young Mariani, who liked to mix it up. Mariani had just been shown the door, and my column, "Flynn's Sin Was Lying To Liars, Not Colluding With Russians," had been rejected.
A POLITE MR. INGERSOLL EXPLAINED the new Daily Caller editorial policy. It would, seemingly, revolve around pacifying the Southern Poverty law Center:

"Dear Geoffrey,
"Thanks for explaining the shift toward my column at Daily Caller. I appreciate that.
"And thanks for asking for my thoughts. Here they are:
"I saw that [Southern Poverty Law Center] hit piece on me, Scott and DC. I was going to reply to it at the time. I should have.
"I am not a white nationalist. I am a hard-right libertarian individualist. I'm also an ex-Israeli, Jewish, daughter of a rabbi still residing in South African, etc. And, I'm wedded to reality. That, the SPLC can't forgive.
"The SPLC article is easily refuted. In my case, it frames colorful language as "raaaaacist." There is no argument in the SPLC article, just ad hominem. I'm more than capable of dealing a devastating blow to the 'writers.' The SPLC's text is impoverished, factually and logically.
"I refuted a 'Media Matters' attack, in 'One More Media Matters Con Man,' here. Picked to pieces, this man's case against me crumbles.
"I don't think this individual, dealt with above, renewed his attacks.
"The entire establishment is attacking the president on the same grounds as the SPLC. The president is lagging in the battle b/c he has not put up a person or persons to eloquently argue his platform, non-stop. Just playing defense and only barely won't cut it.
"If we lie low and allow the SPLC bullying (joined by mainstream pols and media), we lose the agenda of this presidency, as well as a spectrum of speech that won't easily be recovered.
"My column also seemed to be quite liked by DC readers, who, for the most, clearly do not see things through the SPLC prism.
"So, would you consider giving me the opportunity to refute the SPLC smear against Daily Caller and myself?
"Kind regards,
Ilana"

"Sure, but not right now. We're doing a series called "The New McCarthyism," perhaps as a part of that. Right now, we have Pollock dealing with the SPLC directly. Then we're going to post an oped he wrote that I already have as one in the series. After that, I'd be elated to get one from you.
"Primarily, I don't want SPLC to have any ammo when Pollock finally gets through to their board. If he does get through to them, and they check your byline, it would not help if you had recent posts there.
"This is just a temporary measure.
"Geoffrey Ingersoll
Editor in Chief

POSTSCRIPT: I reached out again, once or twice, in an attempt to reinstate a column that has been limited in its reach for 20 years by all spectrum of conservatism and libertarianism. (Again, highest praise, really. In this context, I am reminded of Alexei Sayle, a scrupulously honest British comedian, perceptive about human nature, too. When asked what he does when he watches a really talented satirist performing, Sayle replied: "I go back stage and tell him he'll never make it.")
In response, an ever-cordial back-stabbing Mr. Ingersoll lied through his teeth:

That was on Jan. 9, 2018 at 5:43 a.m.
So, there you have it.
Geoffrey Ingersoll, Daily Caller's editor-in-chief (and a Marine), would sooner purge writers like me and the many who agree with me than stand up to the SPLC urban terrorists.
To his credit, Mr. Ingersoll was always respectful and cordial to me.
Against Mr. Ingersoll it must be said that he was utterly insincere. He told this columnist that her excising was "temporary."
While reassuring a dissident it had every intention of reinstating her, the Daily Caller, apparently, was, hypocritically, negotiating with the SPLC heisters for a reprieve, striking a Faustian deal with the devil.
Over the authentic, dissident right, Con Inkers and the left converge: We must be canceled.
POST-POSTSCRIPT: Here's to WND, The Unz Review, American Greatness, Cassandra Fairbanks, Patrick Howley and others like them who man-up.
