thelibertydaily--2020-01-14--Yes, the Evangelical Immigration Table is Soros-Backed

It came to the attention of the Capstone Report that it was possible that the Midwest Baptist Theological Seminary President Jason Allen lobbied Governor Mike Parsons to participate in the refugee resettlement program .
This accusation was corroborated by Jason Allen ’ s support for the Evangelicals Immigration Table ( EIT ) .
Capstone Report had also shown evidence that the EIT had been lobbying for governors to participate in the refugee resettlement program via Christianity Today .
Jason Allen would later deny the Soros ties and denounce the publication that brought about the accusation .
While the direct accusation @ @ @ @ @ @ @ purpose of this is not to dive deeper into the otherwise unfounded allegations against Jason Allen , but to rebuke the denigration of orthodox Evangelical publications that we refer to as the Evangelical Dark Web .
The Baptist Press , the media arm of the Southern Baptist Convention , hit back at the reporting by publishing their pravda level explanation of the Evangelical Immigration Table .
In this “ explainer ” they detail how the EIT is a nonpartisan Christian organization that is supported by many figures in Big Eva including SBC President @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Pronoun Hospitality “ .
The report bluntly denies that the EIT receives any funding from George Soros .
However this denies a settled matter .
In fact , the matter is so settled , the Baptist Press admitted this fact while trying to deny it .
Additionally , the Baptist Press relies on Snopes , lauding it as a credible fact checking website .
Snopes “ debunked ” this claim , and Christians are supposed to trust the “ fact-checkers ” who fact-check the Babylon Bee .
Once again the Soros ties to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ matter and have been since June 2013 .
The year is 2013 and Congress is debating the amnesty bill better known as the “ Gang of 8 ” .
Christian author and commentator Eric Metaxes leaves the EIT citing Soros funding , setting off these allegations and debates .
National Review explains : This establishes a basic connection between George Soros and the EIT through the NIF .
The ties between the National Immigration Forum and the Evangelical Immigration Table need more explanation .
Still in 2013 , the EIT was not a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Breitbart reported : the EIT is made up of a coalition of ( c ) 3 ’ s and ( c ) 4 ’ s but isn ’ t itself a legal non-profit organization or corporation .
How did it launch the ad campaign reported in the Huffington Post ?
Loose , informal coalitions can not purchase advertising .
There are also strict limitations on what activities ( c ) 3 ’ s and ( c ) 4 ’ s can undertake , and clear prohibitions on them coordinating on an issue campaign @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Forum to “ facilitate ” its work .
That statement makes it likely that the ad campaign was paid for by NIF .
They are certainly free to undertake an issue ad campaign , but not in someone else ’ s name .
The Institute of Religion and Democracy goes on to explain more about the National Immigration Forum .
So if the EIT is just a front , then what exactly is the National Immigration Forum ?
NIF received over three million dollars from Soros ’ Open Society Institute ( OSI ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ one million dollars from the left-wing Ford Foundation .
Furthermore , Sojourners is also a recipient of Soros ’ money , and their President and CEO , Jim Wallis , is prominent within EIT .
All roads seem to lead to Soros , as a cursory glance into the funding of many religious organizations that have publicly advocated for the recent amnesty legislation find their way back to the Hungarian-American ’ s bountiful leftist check book .
Take , for example , the so-called Nuns on the Bus .
The establishment between the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by everyone , yet some would be so bold as to claim that the ties between the NIF and the EIT does not also mean that George Soros is funding the EIT even though the EIT is not a real organization and is an extension of Soros backed-NIF .
It seems the next categorical response is to deny that money is fungible .
Where have we heard this argument before ?
Abortion .
The Hyde Amendment prohibits federal funding for abortions , but the federal government funds Planned Parenthood that not only operates @ @ @ @ @ @ @ well .
To say that the money going to the NIF does not touch the EIT would be like saying the money going to Planned Parenthood does not go towards their baby killing operation .
The money provided allows Planned Parenthood to use their other finds directly on baby killing operations if we are to believe there is any real separation between the two .
Essentially , those denying the Soros funding of the Evangelical Immigration Table are using arguments that would suggest that the government does not fund abortion .
It ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ worst for the Baptist Press and Jason Allen to treat the Soros ties to the EIT as a debunked conspiracy theory to beat independent alternative Christian media over .
TheBlaze did a deeper investigation into the ties .
Their investigation ultimately points out that Soros has funded many faith based groups , including direct competitors to the EIT that have a much stronger connection .
The history of the EIT would suggest that Soros money to the National Immigration Forum provided much of the seed money to establish the Evangelical Immigration Table which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ through politically leftist donors , thereby limiting the need for as much money or attention that Open Society would give to Sojourner or others .
Since Soros money had a deeper ties to the founding of the EIT , it ’ s certain that the message and purpose of the EIT are skewed in favor of the open borders policies that Soros supports as evident in 2013 and today .
Once again , while the Soros ties to the Evangelical Immigration table aren ’ t direct as they are with other faith-based organizations @ @ @ @ @ @ @ real of an organization as the others .
As we prepare for the 2020 election , we are joining with fellow patriots to form a grassroots movement to advance the cause of conservatism .

The Baptist Press, the media arm of the Southern Baptist Convention, hit back at the reporting by publishing their pravda level explanation of the Evangelical Immigration Table. In this “explainer” they detail how the EIT is a nonpartisan Christian organization that is supported by many figures in Big Eva including SBC President JD Greear, the champion of “Pronoun Hospitality“. The report bluntly denies that the EIT receives any funding from George Soros.
However this denies a settled matter. In fact, the matter is so settled, the Baptist Press admitted this fact while trying to deny it.
Some accusing EIT, or member groups of EIT, as being “Soros-funded” point out that EIT is supported by the National Immigration Forum, and that an organization chaired by George Soros had awarded grant money to the National Immigration Forum — which is true.
Additionally, the Baptist Press relies on Snopes, lauding it as a credible fact checking website. Snopes “debunked” this claim, and Christians are supposed to trust the “fact-checkers” who fact-check the Babylon Bee. Once again the Soros ties to the Evangelical Immigration Table are a settled matter and have been since June 2013.
The year is 2013 and Congress is debating the amnesty bill better known as the “Gang of 8”. Christian author and commentator Eric Metaxes leaves the EIT citing Soros funding, setting off these allegations and debates. National Review explains:
The Evangelical Immigration Table’s backstory is of interest here. The EIT is a project of the National Immigration Forum, which (according to its 990s, the IRS form for tax-exempt organizations) receives a substantial portion of its funding from groups backed by George Soros. Although the NIF’s executive director says Soros’s money hasn’t been funneled to the EIT and that it doesn’t endorse any specific legislation, the connection between the two was enough to raise eyebrows.
This establishes a basic connection between George Soros and the EIT through the NIF. The ties between the National Immigration Forum and the Evangelical Immigration Table need more explanation. Still in 2013, the EIT was not a real organization in and of itself. Breitbart reported:
the EIT is made up of a coalition of (c)3’s and (c)4’s but isn’t itself a legal non-profit organization or corporation. How did it launch the ad campaign reported in the Huffington Post? Loose, informal coalitions cannot purchase advertising. There are also strict limitations on what activities (c)3’s and (c)4’s can undertake, and clear prohibitions on them coordinating on an issue campaign. EIT says it selected National Immigration Forum to “facilitate” its work. That statement makes it likely that the ad campaign was paid for by NIF. They are certainly free to undertake an issue ad campaign, but not in someone else’s name.
The Institute of Religion and Democracy goes on to explain more about the National Immigration Forum.
So if the EIT is just a front, then what exactly is the National Immigration Forum? NIF received over three million dollars from Soros’ Open Society Institute (OSI) in 2009-2010 alone, as well as one million dollars from the left-wing Ford Foundation. Furthermore, Sojourners is also a recipient of Soros’ money, and their President and CEO, Jim Wallis, is prominent within EIT. All roads seem to lead to Soros, as a cursory glance into the funding of many religious organizations that have publicly advocated for the recent amnesty legislation find their way back to the Hungarian-American’s bountiful leftist check book. Take, for example, the so-called Nuns on the Bus.
The establishment between the NIF and George Soros is agreed upon by everyone, yet some would be so bold as to claim that the ties between the NIF and the EIT does not also mean that George Soros is funding the EIT even though the EIT is not a real organization and is an extension of Soros backed-NIF.
It seems the next categorical response is to deny that money is fungible. Where have we heard this argument before? Abortion. The Hyde Amendment prohibits federal funding for abortions, but the federal government funds Planned Parenthood that not only operates baby killing factories but super PACs as well. To say that the money going to the NIF does not touch the EIT would be like saying the money going to Planned Parenthood does not go towards their baby killing operation. The money provided allows Planned Parenthood to use their other finds directly on baby killing operations if we are to believe there is any real separation between the two. Essentially, those denying the Soros funding of the Evangelical Immigration Table are using arguments that would suggest that the government does not fund abortion.
It’s naivete at best and slander at worst for the Baptist Press and Jason Allen to treat the Soros ties to the EIT as a debunked conspiracy theory to beat independent alternative Christian media over. TheBlaze did a deeper investigation into the ties. Their investigation ultimately points out that Soros has funded many faith based groups, including direct competitors to the EIT that have a much stronger connection.
Dr. Joseph Mercola said, “Synthetic meat is the epitome of ultraprocessed food, and it seems naïve to think it won’t have health effects similar to other ultraprocessed junk foods.” For All-American REAL beef raised in pastures, sous vide, then freeze-dried for long-term storage, visit Whole Cows and use promo code “no junk” at checkout.
While the EIT’s funding may be more indirect, it’s founding organization — the NIF, a non-religious group — is most definitely an Open Society recipient. As a result, EIT’s ties to Soros money are valid to point out, however the extent to which the funding is touching EIT outreach projects may not be as strong and direct as it was with these other groups.
The history of the EIT would suggest that Soros money to the National Immigration Forum provided much of the seed money to establish the Evangelical Immigration Table which has since been able to sustain itself through politically leftist donors, thereby limiting the need for as much money or attention that Open Society would give to Sojourner or others. Since Soros money had a deeper ties to the founding of the EIT, it’s certain that the message and purpose of the EIT are skewed in favor of the open borders policies that Soros supports as evident in 2013 and today.
Once again, while the Soros ties to the Evangelical Immigration table aren’t direct as they are with other faith-based organizations, the EIT isn’t as real of an organization as the others.

Delay backfire: After Pelosi’s Gambit, Does Anyone Outside of DC Care About Democrats’ Sham Impeachment?

For three months , newsrooms across the nation were feeding us story after story after story about impeachment .
Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi played coy after she got her Articles following a rushed and “ urgent ” set of hearings in the House of Representatives .
It was a fatal mistake .
Many of us were following along with rapt attention to the debacle of the impeachment hearings in the House as well as the anti-climactic conclusion to them that led to Articles of Impeachment for “ Obstruction of Congress ” and “ Abuse of Power.
” But @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Senate , as prescribed by the vast majority of scholars and judges reading the Constitution and the accepted rules of engagement between the two chambers of Congress , Pelosi sat on them .
There ’ s still no apparent strategy behind the maneuver , and as Democrats flail around to spin it , mainstream media is trying to make people care .
All Pelosi has done is make herself look bad for making demands that were beyond her power to make .
Impeachment is a power of the House , but trying impeachment @ @ @ @ @ @ @ There is no crossover .
The Senate could vote 100-0 to impeach a President , but it would hold zero legal weight .
Conversely , the House could vote 435-0 on protocols to be used by the Senate in the trial , at which point the Senate would be compelled to adopt exactly zero of their proposed ideas .
The founders were smart to keep this process split between the chambers .
Pelosi , apparently , never got the memo .
The real question isn ’ t whether the President will be exonerated @ @ @ @ @ @ @ seems less and less likely the Articles will be dismissed from the outset , we appear to be heading towards a singular conclusion to the debacle .
Everything between the moment Pelosi delivers the Articles and the moment Chief Justice John Roberts declares the trial adjourned is all about scoring political points through spinning of the narrative .
It will continue all the way to election day , but the crucial period of time will be from bell-to-bell during the trial itself .
How will the people perceive the proceedings ?
Will they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from the White House , as the media is going to attempt to make us believe ?
Will they see it as partisan hacking from Democrats ?
Or , will they simply not care at all .
Since Pelosi allowed all of the steam to spit out of her impeachment engine , it seems less likely people will pay much attention to what she or any Democrats have to say about it all .
With Iran tensions in a strange sort of limbo , news outlets and buzz around virtual water coolers continue @ @ @ @ @ @ @ country following the downing of a Boeing 737-800 by the Middle Eastern nation ’ s air defenses .
Progressive media is still trying to paint it as a mistake by President Trump to have Quds leader Qasem Soleimani killed while conservative media is highlighting the unified call from both patriotic Americans and patriotic Iranians for leaders in Tehran to step down .
The last thing we ’ re worried about is a set of trumped up charges that have no chance of succeeding but that will be spun as political fodder ahead of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ never got that memo , either .
Now , she ’ s stuck with a series of terrible decisions .
As Sean Hannity noted on his show last night , Pelosi has done nothing but embarrass herself with her failed impeachment gambit .
She ’ s done worse than that , though .
She ’ s actually lulled most of America into a state of impeachment tedium .

Britain , Germany , and France moved toward implementing more sanctions against Iran after Tehran said it would not comply with any restrictions on enriching uranium following the U.S. strike that killed top Iranian commander Qassem Soleimani .
The European countries said they had “ sought to persuade Iran to change course ” and “ worked hard ” to address its concerns .
They said there were , however , few options left , given Iran ’ s decision , except to trigger a dispute mechanism in the 2015 nuclear deal .
“ We have therefore been left with no @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , but to register today our concerns that Iran is not meeting its commitments ” under the nuclear agreement , the countries said in a joint statement Tuesday .
Triggering the mechanism gives the parties up to 60 days to negotiate about Iran coming back into full compliance with the deal , according to the New York Times .
It could end in reviving United Nations sanctions on Iran , but the European countries said they remain committed to saving the deal and would not be joining the United States ’ “ maximum @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from the deal in 2018 and has imposed several rounds of sanctions on the country .
Iran has responded by gradually exceeding many of the limitations it agreed to in the deal .

thelibertydaily--2020-01-14--Desperate Pocahontas Now Says She’ll Unconstitutionally Cancel Student Debt by Executive Action

In her latest show of desperation , Sen. Elizabeth Warren is now promising to implement her student loan forgiveness plan by executive fiat , adding legal questions to an already reckless proposal .
With less than three weeks to go before Iowa , Warren needs to make a splash in Tuesday night 's debate .
She 's teetering on the edge of disaster in the first Democratic nomination contest , and a poor showing there would doom her presidential ambitions .
After her campaign spent yesterday pushing the idea that Sen. Bernie Sanders told her in a private meeting that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , she 's trying out a new gimmick to highlight a popular proposal from earlier in her campaign .
Last April , Warren proposed to offer debt cancellation of up to $ 50,000 to more than 42 million people , or 95 % of those with debt .
She claimed that will completely wipe out debt for 75 % of borrowers with student loans .
The proposal , which would be a slap in the face to those who already struggled to pay off their loans , would create an incredible moral hazard @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that if they rack up debt , the government will always step in to wipe it away .
That will no doubt cause a new wave of borrowers to take out even more debt and incentivize colleges to increase tuition .
As Reason 's Peter Suderman detailed at the time , it is also a giveaway to a class of Americans ( college graduates ) who are relatively well-off and connected .
Flaws aside , the proposal helped Warren gain steam last spring and summer , particularly with the type of younger liberal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ campaign .
Perhaps sensing there are questions among the Democratic electorate about how any of these ambitious proposals are going to pass , Warren is now trying to bring back one of her greatest hits — only claiming she can implement it without Congress .
`` I will start to use existing laws on day one of my presidency to implement my student loan debt cancellation plan that offers relief to 42 million Americans , '' she explains in laying out her recycled proposal , which also promises `` all available tools to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ crack down on for-profit institutions , and eliminate predatory lending . ''
Warren claims the Department of Education has `` broad legal authority to cancel student debt . ''
Sure , there are circumstances where debt that has n't been paid back is considered in default and gets written off as the government assumes it will never get repaid .
But there 's no precedent for anything this broad .
So there 's no doubt her proposal would trigger significant legal challenges .
Furthermore , there is the financing issue .
Warren originally @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cost $ 640 billion , to be paid for with revenues generated from her wealth tax .
Yet her wealth tax would require an act of Congress to pass .
In the meantime , where does the money come from to wipe away hundreds of billions of dollars in federal assets ?
It 's also particularly rich that at a time when Democrats are attacking Trump for bypassing Congress and expanding executive power , that she 'd come out with a proposal to use executive power in an unprecedented way .
Policy and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ why Warren expects that this gambit will help her much .
After the success of her student loan cancellation plan , Sanders one-upped her by promising to eliminate all $ 1.6 trillion of student loan debt .
Surely he would n't hesitate to wave away student loan debt by executive authority if such authority could be claimed , so it 's hard to see what advantage Warren hopes to gain here .

In her latest show of desperation, Sen. Elizabeth Warren is now promising to implement her student loan forgiveness plan by executive fiat, adding legal questions to an already reckless proposal.
With less than three weeks to go before Iowa, Warren needs to make a splash in Tuesday night's debate. She's teetering on the edge of disaster in the first Democratic nomination contest, and a poor showing there would doom her presidential ambitions. After her campaign spent yesterday pushing the idea that Sen. Bernie Sanders told her in a private meeting that a woman couldn't be elected president, she's trying out a new gimmick to highlight a popular proposal from earlier in her campaign.
Last April, Warren proposed to offer debt cancellation of up to $50,000 to more than 42 million people, or 95% of those with debt. She claimed that will completely wipe out debt for 75% of borrowers with student loans. The proposal, which would be a slap in the face to those who already struggled to pay off their loans, would create an incredible moral hazard by establishing the standard for young Americans that if they rack up debt, the government will always step in to wipe it away. That will no doubt cause a new wave of borrowers to take out even more debt and incentivize colleges to increase tuition. As Reason's Peter Suderman detailed at the time, it is also a giveaway to a class of Americans (college graduates) who are relatively well-off and connected.
Flaws aside, the proposal helped Warren gain steam last spring and summer, particularly with the type of younger liberal voters she'll need to revive her campaign. Perhaps sensing there are questions among the Democratic electorate about how any of these ambitious proposals are going to pass, Warren is now trying to bring back one of her greatest hits — only claiming she can implement it without Congress.
"I will start to use existing laws on day one of my presidency to implement my student loan debt cancellation plan that offers relief to 42 million Americans," she explains in laying out her recycled proposal, which also promises "all available tools to address racial disparities in higher education, crack down on for-profit institutions, and eliminate predatory lending."
Warren claims the Department of Education has "broad legal authority to cancel student debt." Sure, there are circumstances where debt that hasn't been paid back is considered in default and gets written off as the government assumes it will never get repaid. But there's no precedent for anything this broad. So there's no doubt her proposal would trigger significant legal challenges.
Furthermore, there is the financing issue. Warren originally claimed that her loan forgiveness plan would cost $640 billion, to be paid for with revenues generated from her wealth tax. Yet her wealth tax would require an act of Congress to pass. In the meantime, where does the money come from to wipe away hundreds of billions of dollars in federal assets?
It's also particularly rich that at a time when Democrats are attacking Trump for bypassing Congress and expanding executive power, that she'd come out with a proposal to use executive power in an unprecedented way.
Policy and legal issues aside, it is unclear why Warren expects that this gambit will help her much. After the success of her student loan cancellation plan, Sanders one-upped her by promising to eliminate all $1.6 trillion of student loan debt. Surely he wouldn't hesitate to wave away student loan debt by executive authority if such authority could be claimed, so it's hard to see what advantage Warren hopes to gain here.

Commie Wars: Antifa Communists Attack Bernie Supporting Democrat Congressional Candidate Endorsed By DSA

The communist factions of the far left are now turning against the Bernie factions of the far left , as antifa associated terrorists in Austin , TX , have targeted and attacked Heidi Sloan , a Bernie style democrat running for congress .
They paint bombed her and threw eggs at her .
You can see the paint splotches on her and her car in the picture .
Heidi Sloan , the Democratic Socialists of America ( DSA ) US House candidate for the 25th congressional district , was ambushed by a small group of revolutionaries as she left a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Sunday .
They tossed flyers announcing this year ’ s election boycott around her before eggs filled with red paint were smashed on her head .
Eyewitnesses report she burst into tears immediately .
In a statement posted to social media , Heidi claimed the action ’ s main goal was to ‘ suppress democracy.
’ Heidi ’ s paranoid statement reveals the real reason revolutionaries sought to embarrass her – she is a shill for the US imperialist project , who actively attacks revolutionaries and the people .
Earlier in the week @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was part of DSA leadership who agitated against antifascists while allowing infamous local fascists to remain .
Sloan ’ s day had also been disrupted a few hours earlier at an event held at Givens Park , to gather support for her election bid in what DSA promoted as a ‘ Big Ass Canvass , ’ conducting voter outreach in the quickly gentrifying area .
Sloan has been campaigning for the congressional seat for months , as well as for DSA-endorsed presidential candidate Bernie Sanders .
In the streets around Givens park , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on walls and electrical boxes , with slogans such as “ Don ’ t Vote , Fight for Revolution , ” and “ Elections , No !
Revolution , Yes !
” On social media , DSA supporters attempted to use identity politics to criticize these slogans , offended at the idea that revolutionaries would promote an election boycott in a historically Black working class neighborhood .
To the DSA , not voting is the equivalent of giving up hope , because they do not believe in the possibility , let alone the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the imperialist system they serve .
Revolutionaries on the other hand have total faith in the masses , who will organize to overthrew imperialism , principally of the US , and build a new society on its ashes .

Prior to the start of the DSA event , revolutionaries approached the mostly Black , Chicano , and immigrant working people from the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ park , and shared flyers with information about the DSA and the election boycott .
One parkgoer said he fully supported their boycott efforts , sharing that he had spent time in prison in Mexico for supporting socialist politics .
He understood that voting in an imperialist system was a waste of time .
The action against Sloan was both an initiation of the 2020 election boycott campaign as well as a justified response to the Austin DSA ’ s acceptance and protection of local fascists .
In a bold way , it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and imperialism are not safe to operate in the working class neighborhoods that are home to revolutionary work among the people .
But they weren ’ t done there .
Incendiary News published a second story on the ambush : Revolutionaries in Austin initiated a boycott campaign against the 2020 US elections in a dramatic way , egging a local politician , Heidi Sloan , part of the Democratic Socialists of America ( DSA ) , who is running for a congressional House district .
The Austin DSA is known for formerly having @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the people ’ s struggles , and has also protected fascists at their own anti-war rally .
While being the subject of much debate , the initiation of the campaign certainly forces the media owned by the ruling class to take notice of the election boycott for the first time .

Sloan , like many politicians , serves the interests of the ruling class , and when election season rolls around they go out among the people and beg for votes and donations , they attempt to browbeat and humiliate the masses into going backward into voting , legitimizing a system which does not serve them .

Confetti falls as Tsai Ing-Wen holds hands with Vice President-elect William Lai and Vice-President , Chen Chien-jen , as she celebrates after addressing supporters following her re-election as President of Taiwan in Taipei , Taiwan on January 11 , 2020 .
( Carl Court/Getty Images ) Chinese state-run media sought to dismiss Taiwan President Tsai Ing-wen ’ s re-election victory by accusing her of shady tactics , without providing evidence .
Meanwhile , officials stuck to the Chinese regime ’ s narrative that the self-ruled island is part of its territory .
On Jan. 11 , Tsai won the election @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , or 57.1 percent of the total votes .
The figure was also the highest number of votes a presidential candidate has won since the island held direct presidential elections in 1996 .
Her chief opponent , Han Kuo-yu from the Kuomintang ( KMT ) , earned 5.52 million votes ( 38.6 percent ) , while third-party candidate James Soong won 608,590 ( 4.3 percent ) .
Voter turnout rate also reached a new high , with 14.46 million Taiwanese , or 74.9 percent of the electorate , casting their ballots .
Tsai @ @ @ @ @ @ @ DPP ) , has defended Taiwan ’ s sovereignty and repeatedly called out Beijing ’ s intimidation and influence campaigns on the island , angering the Chinese regime .
Since she assumed office in May 2016 , Beijing has consistently attacked her .
Han , on the other hand , ran on a platform of pursuing closer ties with mainland China .
Experts say Tsai ’ s victory signified that Taiwanese citizens strongly reject Beijing ’ s efforts to unite the island with the mainland .
For mainland Chinese audiences , state media @ @ @ @ @ @ @ discredit Tsai ’ s victory .
“ The election within the Taiwan region is largely controlled by external dark forces , ” state-run media Xinhua said in its Jan. 11 report , spreading its usual narrative of foreign countries being the culprit behind incidents that challenge the Chinese regime .
Meanwhile , People ’ s Daily , the official mouthpiece of the Chinese Communist Party ( CCP ) , analyzed on Jan. 12 that the reason why Han and KMT lost the election is because “ there have been conflicts within the KMT @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and the KMT doesn ’ t have a strong supporter from the outside.
” The article also claimed that U.S. and other Western forces “ publicly interfered in Taiwan election… The United States pushed a series of policies supporting Taiwan…and indulged the DPP in fighting the mainland , ” the report said .
“ This is a dirty election without any impartiality , ” People ’ s Daily said in an editorial published on Jan. 12 .
The hawkish newspaper Global Times used harsh language to warn Tsai on Jan. 11 : “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on leading Taiwan in the opposite direction , they will surely become historical sinners , who will be criticized by people on both sides of the strait and will receive retribution.
” Xinhua , which serves as the Chinese regime ’ s official news agency , published an article on the election results late on Jan. 11 , first criticizing the performance of Tsai ’ s government in the past three years .
“ People ’ s livelihood are getting worse and worse , while democracy [ in Taiwan ] keeps going backwards… @ @ @ @ @ @ @ resources within the party , government , and military to campaign [ for Tsai ] .
” Beijing ’ s disinformation campaign , initiated in the lead-up to Taiwan ’ s 2018 local elections , spread the idea that economic ties with mainland China would improve Taiwanese people ’ s livelihood .
The Xinhua article accused Tsai of spreading disinformation instead .
“ First , she crazily spent hundreds of billion of Taiwan dollars [ 1 TWD = 0.033 USD ] to launch policies in an effort to buy voters ’ support .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ to defame her competitors .
Third , she enlarged the threat from the mainland… scaring people.
” In fact , in the lead-up to the January election , the Chinese regime twice sent its newest aircraft carrier to the Taiwan strait , a move denounced by Taipei as military intimidation .
The regime has never ruled out using military force to take Taiwan .
And previously in 2018 , media such as Foreign Policy magazine traced popular Facebook fan pages for Han—who was eventually elected to mayor of the southern Taiwanese city of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 2019 , Chinese state-run media and the KMT have claimed that Tsai ’ s government policies , such as offering pensions to farmers , were attempts to buy people ’ s support .
In fact , that policy was proposed long before the presidential race—in September 2018 .
Chinese officials also issued their opinion , emphasizing Beijing ’ s policy of unifying Taiwan with the mainland .
Despite Taiwanese voters favoring Tsai ’ s repudiation of Beijing ’ s “ one country , two systems ” proposal for annexing the island , officials @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Xiaoguang , spokesman of the Taiwan Affairs Office of China ’ s State Council , told media on Jan. 11 : “ We would like to promote cross-strait relations under the common political basis of ‘ 92 Consensus ’ and being ‘ against Taiwan independence.
’ ” Under the “ 1992 Consensus , ” Taipei and Beijing agreed that there is “ one China , ” but both sides can interpret what the “ one China ” is .
In the mainland , the Chinese regime claims itself as the “ one China @ @ @ @ @ @ @ provinces .
Meanwhile , Taiwan recognizes itself , officially the Republic of China , as the sole legitimate representative of China .
Tsai and the DPP do not accept the “ 92 Consensus , ” saying that Taiwan is a sovereign nation and that the consensus is simply another codename for Beijing ’ s desire to unify Taiwan .

Chinese state-run media sought to dismiss Taiwan President Tsai Ing-wen’s re-election victory by accusing her of shady tactics, without providing evidence.
Meanwhile, officials stuck to the Chinese regime’s narrative that the self-ruled island is part of its territory.
On Jan. 11, Tsai won the election by a landslide with 8.17 million votes, or 57.1 percent of the total votes. The figure was also the highest number of votes a presidential candidate has won since the island held direct presidential elections in 1996. Her chief opponent, Han Kuo-yu from the Kuomintang (KMT), earned 5.52 million votes (38.6 percent), while third-party candidate James Soong won 608,590 (4.3 percent).
Voter turnout rate also reached a new high, with 14.46 million Taiwanese, or 74.9 percent of the electorate, casting their ballots.
Tsai, of the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), has defended Taiwan’s sovereignty and repeatedly called out Beijing’s intimidation and influence campaigns on the island, angering the Chinese regime. Since she assumed office in May 2016, Beijing has consistently attacked her.
Han, on the other hand, ran on a platform of pursuing closer ties with mainland China.
Experts say Tsai’s victory signified that Taiwanese citizens strongly reject Beijing’s efforts to unite the island with the mainland.
‘External Forces’ to Blame
For mainland Chinese audiences, state media spread fake news in an effort to discredit Tsai’s victory.
“The election within the Taiwan region is largely controlled by external dark forces,” state-run media Xinhua said in its Jan. 11 report, spreading its usual narrative of foreign countries being the culprit behind incidents that challenge the Chinese regime.
Meanwhile, People’s Daily, the official mouthpiece of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), analyzed on Jan. 12 that the reason why Han and KMT lost the election is because “there have been conflicts within the KMT since the beginning of the campaign, and the KMT doesn’t have a strong supporter from the outside.”
The article also claimed that U.S. and other Western forces “publicly interfered in Taiwan election… The United States pushed a series of policies supporting Taiwan...and indulged the DPP in fighting the mainland,” the report said.
“This is a dirty election without any impartiality,” People’s Daily said in an editorial published on Jan. 12.
The hawkish newspaper Global Times used harsh language to warn Tsai on Jan. 11: “If Tsai and the DPP government keep on leading Taiwan in the opposite direction, they will surely become historical sinners, who will be criticized by people on both sides of the strait and will receive retribution.”
Spinning the News
Xinhua, which serves as the Chinese regime’s official news agency, published an article on the election results late on Jan. 11, first criticizing the performance of Tsai’s government in the past three years. “People’s livelihood are getting worse and worse, while democracy [in Taiwan] keeps going backwards… this prompted the deliberate use of all resources within the party, government, and military to campaign [for Tsai].”
Beijing’s disinformation campaign, initiated in the lead-up to Taiwan’s 2018 local elections, spread the idea that economic ties with mainland China would improve Taiwanese people’s livelihood.
The Xinhua article accused Tsai of spreading disinformation instead. “First, she crazily spent hundreds of billion of Taiwan dollars [1 TWD = 0.033 USD] to launch policies in an effort to buy voters’ support. Second, she hired an internet army to defame her competitors. Third, she enlarged the threat from the mainland… scaring people.”
In fact, in the lead-up to the January election, the Chinese regime twice sent its newest aircraft carrier to the Taiwan strait, a move denounced by Taipei as military intimidation. The regime has never ruled out using military force to take Taiwan.
And previously in 2018, media such as Foreign Policy magazine traced popular Facebook fan pages for Han—who was eventually elected to mayor of the southern Taiwanese city of Kaohsiung—to a Chinese cybergroup.
Since September 2019, Chinese state-run media and the KMT have claimed that Tsai’s government policies, such as offering pensions to farmers, were attempts to buy people’s support.
In fact, that policy was proposed long before the presidential race—in September 2018.
Comments from Beijing
Chinese officials also issued their opinion, emphasizing Beijing’s policy of unifying Taiwan with the mainland.
Despite Taiwanese voters favoring Tsai’s repudiation of Beijing’s “one country, two systems” proposal for annexing the island, officials stuck to their talking points.
Ma Xiaoguang, spokesman of the Taiwan Affairs Office of China’s State Council, told media on Jan. 11: “We would like to promote cross-strait relations under the common political basis of ‘92 Consensus’ and being ‘against Taiwan independence.’”
Under the “1992 Consensus,” Taipei and Beijing agreed that there is “one China,” but both sides can interpret what the “one China” is. In the mainland, the Chinese regime claims itself as the “one China” and Taiwan as one of its provinces. Meanwhile, Taiwan recognizes itself, officially the Republic of China, as the sole legitimate representative of China.

House Democrats have voted to block Kevin McCarthy’s resolution to both condemn the Iranian regime and support the Iranian protesters angry with the regime:
What a disappointment —Democrats just blocked a vote on a resolution supporting the Iranian protestors. This is not the time for partisan politics. This should be a time for the US Congress to speak with one voice to condemn an Iranian regime that kills its own people. — Kevin McCarthy (@GOPLeader) January 14, 2020
According to Town Hall, McCarthy’s resolution…
(1) condemns Iran for killing over 1,000 Iranian citizens who were protesting their government, (2) condemns the Government of Iran for shooting down Ukraine International Airlines Flight 752, (3) condemns the Government of Iran for repeatedly lying to its people and to the world about its responsibility for the downing of Ukraine International Airlines Flight 752, (4) calls on the Government of Iran to refrain from the use of violence, and protect the rights of freedom of expression and peaceful assembly, the leader’s office explains.
And yet Democrats wouldn’t even do that.

Warren entered and shook Biden’s hand, and Sanders appeared to be preparing to shake a hand to his left, but there was no one there.
He finally awkwardly shook Warren’s extended hand.
The moment came after the two traded jabs this week over a claim that Sanders privately told Warren a woman couldn’t be elected president, a smear he denied.
At the conclusion of the debate, Warren refused to shake Sanders’s hand.
Watch:
Sanders stuck out his hand, and Warren didn’t oblige. The two appeared to have an icy conversation, and Sanders walked away.
