President Joe Biden has given the Chinese Communist Party a free-pass to engage in genocide against Muslim Uyghurs and other ethnic minorities in Western China. In a televised CNN townhall, he dismissed it as a manifestation of a different “cultural norm.” Genocide would be more accurately described as a “CCP norm.” Throughout the Party’s sordid…
I host a television program called “Securing America” that’s a kind of owner’s manual for protecting the country we love. It’s first instruction is “Don’t let radical leftists enact legislation that crushes freedom.” One such bill is being fast-tracked by congressional Democrats. They misleadingly call it the “For the People Act,” but it’s better known…
Donald Trump’s defense gets its turn in his second Senate impeachment trial today. The former president’s lawyers are expected to focus on the unconstitutionality of the proceeding and the protections afforded by the First Amendment to free political speech. The rest of us should be focused on a subtext of the prosecution’s case that was…
America has a problem. Its most dangerous enemy ever, the Chinese Communist Party, is using virtually every available means to destroy us – including fomenting problems in our elections and internal strife in their aftermath. Our President has a problem, too. He’s contracted the “Biden China Syndrome” and either wants to appease the CCP, or…
There’s a discernable pattern emerging in the Biden presidency. For example, Mr. Biden legitimated the World Health Organization by reversing Donald Trump’s decision to withdraw from an entity clearly in the Chinese Communist Party’s pocket. He also said federal employees can’t describe Covid-19 as “the China virus.” And, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg says there’s “an…
In Donald Trump’s second impeachment trial, the former President is not the only one in the dock. So are tens of millions of us if the House prosecutors can successfully implicate Mr. Trump’s supporters in his alleged seditious conspiracy. After all, the stated purpose of Democratic partisans is to prevent Donald Trump from regaining the…
It’s said that, “People who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones.” In the case of Joe Biden, the principle should apply as well to people who live in White Houses. President Biden says his predecessor should not have access to classified intelligence briefings, a courtesy normally extended to former Commanders-in-Chief. Mr. Biden’s stated justification…
Yesterday, President Joe Biden used a foreign policy address to insist that “America is back.” But back to what? Based on the contents of the rest of the speech and his performance to date the answer appears to be: Back to the failed Obama-Biden administration’s policies which made it better to be America’s enemy than…
President Joe Biden lays out today his foreign policy priorities. At the moment, they seem to be characterized by one principle: Not Trump. Donald Trump opposed the Chinese Communist Party’s “people’s war” against this country and its “genocide” against Uyghur Muslims. Will a President Biden, deeply compromised by the CCP, return to the Obama practice…
This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. Of President Biden’s many problematic initiatives aimed at nullifying the Trump legacy, his rebooting of U.S. Middle East policy is particularly ominous. Its hallmarks are: promoting the Palestinians over Israel; dissing the United Arab Emirates that made peace with the Jewish State; and, worst of all,…
This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. On Sunday, CBS News’ “60 Minutes” program warned that the Chinese Communist Party is hoovering up our DNA and other personal medical data. By some estimates, eighty percent of us have already had such information ripped off by PRC companies that are obliged to share it…
This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. Americans were horrified to learn in the early days of the Chinese Communist Party-induced pandemic that our country is acutely dependent on China for protective gear and medicines. Now we’re discovering the PRC supplies another determinant of our public health and safety: the U.S. electric grid.…
This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. A prominent Chinese influence operator named Di Dongcheng recently bragged that China’s “old friends” on Wall Street had for decades ensured that U.S. government policy suited Beijing. He relished the prospect that, after a rough patch with Donald Trump, America would once again be submissive to…
This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. Yesterday, President Joe Biden placed “climate change at the center of our domestic, national security and foreign policy.” The clear implication is that the very real – and growing – threats posed by the Chinese Communist Party, Russian dictator Vladimir Putin and the mullahs of Iran are…
This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. The bloom may be coming off the rose of the Biden-Harris presidency. Or maybe it’s just buyer’s remorse as millions of Americans who voted for Joe Biden – and others whose votes against him weren’t accurately counted – are confronting the reality that he’s certainly not…
This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. Among the most insidious legacies of Barack Obama’s presidency was the wrecking operation he conducted against the U.S. military. It was defunded, disarmed and subjected to social experimentation without regard for the adverse consequences for our troops’ warfighting capabilities, readiness and morale. Tragically, Joe Biden is…
This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. A preeminent concern about a Biden-Harris presidency is whether those two “old friends” of Communist China will do its bidding to America’s great detriment. One of the administration’s first, ominous acts suggests they are so inclined. An initial Biden Executive Order clears the way for the…
This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. One of the few – actually, very few – good news items to come out of the first days of the Biden-Harris administration is a glimmer of robust bipartisan opposition to the Chinese Communist Party. Before he left office, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo declared the…
This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. If anyone doubted that “elections have consequences,” look no further than Joe Biden’s busy first day in the White House. The new President immediately reversed a number of his predecessor’s policies. Among the blizzard of problematic Executive Orders he signed on “Day One” were directives that…
This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. America gets a new President today. So does Communist China, and the rest of the world. Joe Biden is expected to take immediately a number of steps aimed at reversing his predecessor’s “America First” policies. Many of these – and others sure to come – will…
