Chen Weihua is the EU bureau chief of China Daily, a daily newspaper following in the mold of many Chinese media organizations in being entirely state-owned and affiliated with the Chinese government.
It would nominally comes as a surprise that an operative of the Chinese Communist Party would cite the free-trade libertarian think tank’s rebuttal to Senator Hawley’s argument against the WTO, but politics makes for strange bedfellows. Both the Chinese government’s outsourcing-based economic model and western corporate elites cozy with CATO benefit from a continued regime of low trade barriers and free trade, placing the ideological libertarians and Chinese communists in the same camp on trade policy.
Senator Hawley had put Weihua on blast for propagandizing against the populist-right senator’s call to abolish the World Trade Organization and replace it with an economic nationalist and pro-worker alternative. The WTO has been a critical element in the outsourcing of millions of American jobs and vital national industry to China and other countries where cheap labor is plentiful.

Lyons currently serves as the White House staff secretary, and he will be getting a promotion despite (or perhaps because of) his long-standing ties to the GOP establishment. He will be supplanting Joe Grogan as the head of the Domestic Policy Council.
Throughout Trump’s tenure in the White House, establishment hacks and “Never Trump” forces have been appointed to many different influential roles within the administration. The two primary enablers of this phenomenon have been Trump son-in-law Jared Kushner and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.
As Big League Politics has noted, Pompeo got his start as a Never Trumper and funneled like-minded people into the administration after worming his way into a position of influence:
While giving his address, Pompeo made other comments showing his neoconservative tendencies. “Diplomacy and military strike go hand in hand,” Pompeo said. “They are indeed intimately related; each relies on the other.” These words are not a slip of the tongue, as Pompeo has quietly led the charge for the infiltration of the Trump administration with ‘Never Trump’ operatives gunning to sabotage the President’s ‘America First’ agenda. Mary Kissel, who Trump once called a “major loser,” was hired by Pompeo as a senior adviser in the State Department despite opposing her boss on every single one of his policies. Pompeo also hired James Jeffrey as his envoy for the Syrian war despite the fact that he was a ‘Never Trumper’ who signed a pro-Hillary Clinton letter arguing that Trump was “a dangerous president [who] would put at risk our country’s national security and well-being” in 2016. In Pompeo’s most egregious betrayal of Trump, he hired Elliott Abrams – the disgraced war criminal who supported the Iraq War and perjured himself by lying to Congress over the Iran/Contra scandal – as the Venezuelan envoy despite Abrams’ long-stated goal for the GOP establishment to “seize the party machinery back immediately after the Trump defeat.”
Big League Politics has frequently reported on how Kushner has subverted President Trump’s “America First” immigration agenda and influenced Trump’s shameful pivot on the issue:
President Donald Trump has apparently had a change of heart regarding open immigration following a massive corporate lobbying push to import more foreign workers into the US that would boost multinational profits at the expense of US workers. “We want to have a very strong border, but we want to have a lot of people coming in,” Trump said at a White House summit this week with the corporate elite. “A lot of people don’t understand that. They think we’re shutting it out. We’re not shutting it out. We want people to come in, but they have to come in through a process.” Trump credits his marvelous economy, sitting currently at about 3.6 percent, for why all this foreign labor is necessary. “We’re going to let a lot of people come in because we need workers,” Trump said yesterday. “We have to have workers. These are low numbers, and in one way I love it, but in another way I don’t want to make it hard for you to get those companies rolling … with really great people.” While Trump acts like this is a sudden change of heart spurred by the fact that his economy is doing well, it is more likely that his flip-flop has come as the result of a well-funded globalist lobbying campaign engineered by Trump’s son-in-law and international poster child for the dangers of nepotism, Jared Kushner. McClatchy DC reported on Kushner’s scheming with individuals from the Koch-affiliated Libre Initiative, the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, and other open border groups as he exploited the government shutdown crisis to push amnesty.
The appointment of Lyons to Domestic Policy Council shows that nothing has changed within the administration. The swamp has overtaken the White House, and the president’s “America First” agenda is in serious jeopardy as a result.

This news shows that Cuomo has been misleading people with false information during his previous press conferences. He previously gave advice to New Yorkers that reassured them without merit.
“I was afraid that it was going to infect my family no matter what I did. We’re past that,” Cuomo said during a press conference that took place on April 13. “If you isolate, if you take the precautions, your family won’t get infected.”
The quarantine does not appear to be working, and now more virulent strains of coronavirus are emerging as the public lacks the herd immunity to fight back:
A group of scientists from the Los Alamos National Laboratory are warning of a new strain of the coronavirus disease that is more contagious than the original. The scientists published their research into the new strain of the disease in a paper on Tuesday. They claim that the new form of coronavirus originated in Europe before spreading to the United States, and could in time prove to be even more dangerous. The current general scientific consensus is that patients who have recovered from coronavirus cannot get sick with the disease a second time. The spread of a new strain of the virus could make it possible for humans with coronavirus antibodies to incur the viral disease a second time. “The mutation Spike D614G is of urgent concern; after beginning to spread in Europe in early February, when introduced to new regions it repeatedly and rapidly becomes the dominant form. Also, we present evidence of recombination between locally circulating strains, indicative of multiple strain infections. These finding have important implications for SARS-CoV-2 transmission, pathogenesis and immune interventions.”
The bureaucrats and the supposed experts have recommended guidelines that could ultimately be a death sentence for millions of Americans.

Fast forward to 2020, the alliance is not only intact, but it could be strengthened even further in the wake of the Wuhan virus outbreak. The Communist Party of China (CPC) recently threatened to economically undermine Australia’s economy over the current government’s calls for a probe into the Chinese government’s handling of the Wuhan virus outbreak.
Sky News Australia reported that China threatened to block imports of Australian goods and prevent Chinese citizens from traveling to the country. “Ambassador Cheng Jingye on Monday said the push was ‘dangerous’ and could encourage Chinese citizens to not purchase Australian exports or travel to the nation,” Sky News reported. The Australian government views the Chinese government’s threats as an attack on their economy.
Foreign Minister Marise Payne criticized Cheng Jingye’s comments as an “economic hit.” The government however is not backing down from the call for an independent inquiry, with Foreign Minister Marise Payne criticizing the threat of an economic hit due to the push,” Sky added.
Ambassador Cheng Jingye claims that pushing for a probe would “encourage” China to not do business with Australia.
According to Sky News Australia reporter Tom Connell, Australian politicians are united in their push for a “global independent” investigation into the Wuhan virus.
The Chinese Ambassador to Australia actually conceded that China’s response to the pandemic has not been “perfect.” When asked about the matter of Australia taking sides with the U.S. on wanting to launch a probe into China, Cheng declared, “It’s a kind of pandering to the assertions that are made by some forces in Washington.”

“The Chinese public is frustrated, dismayed, and disappointed with what Australia is doing now,” Cheng noted.
“I think in the long term… if the mood is going from bad to worse, people would think ‘Why should we go to such a country that is not so friendly to China?’ “The tourists may have second thoughts”, Cheng also remarked.
Neon Nettle recently reported that a Chinese-owned food company recently started to shut down slaughterhouses and processing plants across America, which has placed the U.S.’s meat supply in a considerable predicament.
America’s meat supply is on the ropes because workers at facilities have caught the Wuhan virus, which has led to closures all over the nation.
Neon Nettle highlighted the gravity of the situation:
Perhaps the most alarming fact to emerge from the news is that the largest provider of pork in the U.S. is owned by a corporation based in China. Popular meat brands Nathan’s Famous, Farmland, Eckrich, Armour, and Healthy Ones, to name a few, all fall under the umbrella of Smithfield Foods – the largest producer of pork products in the United States.
China poses a unique challenge to the free countries of the West.
The U.S. should strongly consider immigration policies that restrict Chinese nationals’ movement into the country.
Similarly, it should recommend the same to Australia which has both significant Chinese investment in the country and a large presence of Chinese nationals within the country.
Immigration restriction is a reasonable soft power approach to handling China.
China’s authoritarian legacy continues to live on. Even in its relatively re-branded state, the country poses a unique challenge to the West.
The Anglosphere can get the China question right by restricting Chinese migration altogether.

YouTube is Desperate to Censor ‘Plandemic’ Documentary Detailing a Coronavirus Corruption Conspiracy
YouTube, the streaming video service owned by Google, is desperate to remove an explosive documentary that exposes the key players behind the medical corruption that has fueled the coronavirus pandemic.
The documentary centers around Dr. Judy Mikovits, PhD, and her work exposing corruption in the medical field. Mikovits wrote an explosive paper about the dangerous use of animal and human fetal tissues in scientific experiments that put her on the medical establishment’s hit list. Mikovits believes that the coronavirus pandemic is an example of what she was warning about decades ago.
“Plandemic” covers Mikovits’ career since she was railroaded by Big Pharma for presenting a dissident opinion regarding their fetal chop shop research. Mikovits said she was arrested, had evidence planted on her, and then was slapped with a gag order in order to prevent her truth from being heard.
“Heads of our entire HHS colluded to destroy my reputation, and the Department of Justice and FBI sat on it and kept that case under seal, which means you can’t say there’s a case or your lawyers are held in contempt of court, so you can’t get a lawyer to defend you,” Mikovits said.
“So every single due process right was taken away from me and to this day remains the same. I have no constitutional freedoms or rights,” she added.
Mikovits recently published the book, “Plague of Corruption: Restoring Faith in the Promise of Science” to expose the machinations of globalists like Dr. Anthony Fauci and Bill Gates and how their scheming is making the world less healthy. The documentary is getting out similar information to expose what the elites have done.
“What he’s saying is absolute propaganda and the same kind of propaganda that he’s perpetrated to kill millions since 1984,” Mikovits said of Dr. Fauci.
She explained in detail how Dr. Fauci manipulated her work while she and other scientists were researching HIV in the 1980s. She blames Fauci for holding up a key scientific paper, so he and his fellow bureaucrats could take the credit, that stopped key information from reaching the public that could have prevented millions of deaths.
Mikovits has recommended the immediate repeal of the Bayh–Dole Act, which has resulted in universities abusing the patent system to soak up royalties. The act also allowed government workers to patent discoveries funded by the taxpayer in order to enrich themselves off the government-backed research.
“Ever since that happened in the early 1980s, it destroyed science and this allowed the development of those conflicts of interests, and this is the crime behind letting somebody like Bill Gates with billions of dollars, nobody elected him. He has no medical background. He has no expertise, but we let people like that have a voice in this country while we destroy the lives of millions of people,” she said.
Mikovits noted that a mass vaccination campaign following the pandemic would likely result in Big Pharma and its backers making hundreds of billions of dollars. She also believes that the coronavirus pandemic was the result of research that occurred in the U.S. at a North Carolina laboratory at Fort Detrick as well as the infamous Wuhan Institute of Virology.
“In 1999, I was working in Fort Detrick… and my job was to teach Ebola how to infect human cells without killing them. Ebola couldn’t infect human cells until we took in the laboratory and taught it,” she said.
She also exposed the corruption behind keeping hydroxychloroquine away from patients who are suffering with the coronavirus.
“The game is to prevent the therapies until everyone is infected and push the vaccines knowing that the flu vaccines increase the odds by 36 percent of getting COVID-19,” Mikovits said, citing a study of military personnel indicating that flu vaccines cause a spike in coronavirus cases.

In 2018 Janet Mills , who was then campaigning for Governor of Maine , discussed the idea of “ track and tax ” as a way to raise revenue from Maine drivers .

Mills used the idea of “track and tax” as a way to battle climate change in Maine.
Most dismissed this idea as nothing more than radical campaign rhetoric.
In April of 2019, with Mills now serving as the Governor of Maine, the potential tracking component of the radical “track and tax” plan went into place. This was done without fanfare or media attention.
According to a report the Mills administration signed a $370,000 deal with Streetlight Data out of San Francisco to collect data on Maine’s drivers.
According to Streelight Data’s website they “use Smartphone as sensors to measure all activities on all streets.” They go on to promote that thru their data collection technology systems they can not only collect data on travel, but also on income, race, education, and family status.
According to notes from a November 2019 meeting of Governor Mills’ Maine Climate Council an assistant engineer from the Maine Department of Transportation told members of the council “that Maine DOT can tell them where vehicles begin their trips and their eventual destinations, how fast they drove, how long trips took and even provide data on their turning movements” and “the data can also infer the purpose of the trip.”
According to this information for at least eight months of 2019, and possibly up to the current day, every Maine driver with a smart phone has been spied on by Governor Mills and her administration for the sole purpose of being taxed.
The use of this spying data collection technology should not come as a surprise to people as recently Governor Janet Mills was listed by a Pro-Chinese Communist Party Think Tank as being “China Friendly”.


bigleaguepolitics--2020-05-06--New Reports Show that Large Amounts of Foreign Funny Money is Going into American Universities

New Reports Show that Large Amounts of Foreign Funny Money is Going into American Universities
According to a nonprofit based in D.C., universities failed to disclose $1 billion in foreign funding.
Now reports indicate that the disclosures were “massively incomplete.”
College Fix provided a breakdown of these findings.
Of the $1 billion, “About one-third came from countries known for their influence operations in America,” according to a report from the Clarion Project, whose research stands against “Islamism, white supremacy, neo-Nazism, Antifa and other extremist ideologies.”
The projected discovered that China was the top country in terms of its level of previously unreported data. The numbers showed that $144 million came “from the Communist country across 48 American institutions over the last six years, the project found.”
Such reports are relevant due to the Department of Education’s crack down on the failure to report foreign funding.
Alexander Pease of The College Fix noted the following:
Newly reported income by universities from Saudi Arabia amounts to $70 million, and dates back as far as 2013. Some of the data from Turkey is just as old, with $8.5 million initially left hanging across half a dozen U.S. universities.
Pease added:
Initially unreported data from the United Arab Emirates totaled $16.6 million across eight schools. Russia’s appearance on the list was solely due to a $500,000 gift that New York University belatedly reported from 2018.
Apparently, three universities failed to disclose a total of $117 million of funding originating from Qatar. Pease noted that “Most of that figure is made up of funds Georgetown and Texas A&M University failed to report and are already under investigation by the federal government.”
Alex VanNess, co-author of the Clarion Project report, speculates that the lack of disclosure of foreign funding is the result of the previous administration not caring “about foreign funding” and had a “lackadaisical view” when dealing with income monitoring.
The topic of Chinese influence is rather heated at the moment.
Pease highlighted the following aspect of the influence of China’s infamous Confucius Institutes:
In its first foreign funding data filing in at least six years, Xavier finally reported $896,391 from China (“Confucius Institute Headquarters”) going back to 2013. Various senators have characterized Confucius Institutes as Chinese government operations to collect intelligence and access American research, as well as spread Chinese communist propaganda on campus.
China’s growing financial presence at American universities has made several elected officials concerned, which Pease called attention to:
Last year, a Senate Homeland Security subcommittee released a report looking into the influence of foreign funding in U.S. universities, citing several problematic elements of Confucius Institutes on American campuses.
A number of Senators have recommended that universities put the clamps on these institutes:
Several senators have recommended that universities shut down their institutes on campus. Arizona State University is among the schools that shuttered its institute after being denied a Pentagon waiver, the result of a 2018 law that bars federal defense money from Chinese-language programs at schools with Confucius Institutes.
All things considered, China will likely use universities, which are already leftist, as a way to continue to push for policies that undermine the American polity. From the advocacy for the gutting of the right to bear arms to pushing for political correctness, many leftist organizations can potentially become strange bedfellows with Chinese subversives who seek to pursue common goals of undermining American institutions and traditions.
For that reason, migration from China must be halted and Confucius Institutes must be completely shut down.
