Secure Freedom Minute

Concerns are growing that the galloping advance of artificial intelligence will imperil our jobs, freedoms and country. I call the phenomenon “FrankenAI,” and even some in the industry worry it’s becoming a man-made monster.
We’re told the unregulated pursuit of AI is required to compete with Communist China or we’ll be permanently dominated – militarily and economically. 
Some experts are warning, however, that by allowing China to buy AI-useful Nvidia H20 chips – and then profit from the sales, the Trump administration will help it beat us. 
While others contend those chips are widely available, and we’ll stay ahead by selling them, we seem to be facing a lose-lose proposition: Facilitating Chinese AI dominance – even as we pursue technologies that may make us more like Communist China – appears to be a formula for FrankenAI, at their hands or ours.

If you are ever tempted to think that one person can’t make a difference, think again. My colleague Cleo Paskal exemplifies what a single individual can do with determined and sustained effort.
Cleo has long warned that the Chinese Communist Party is using insidious political warfare to undo hard-won and extremely costly World War II victories that liberated strategic Pacific islands west of Hawaii from the control of another totalitarian regime, imperial Japan.
With help from Steve Bannon and other amplifiers, Clare Paskal is now getting high-level and popular attention, particularly with her argument that U.S. territories like Guam and the Northern Marianas constitute America’s western border. Like the other frontiers President Trump has done so much to secure, it too must be protected from our most formidable enemy, ever: the CCP.   
With a Pacific summit looming, it’s time for action, action, action.

HHS Secretary Robert Kennedy, Jr. announced this week that his department would cut $500 million in research into mRNA vaccines. Big Pharma and its enablers are furious. 
Many of the rest of us, however, are relieved that we may thus be spared FrankenJabs like the COVID-19 vaccine that appears to have been a biological weapon – rather than actual protection from that disease, which surely was one. 
A new movie called “The Unrestricted War” dramatizes the Chinese Communist Party’s role in producing COVID in its biowarfare lab in Wuhan, China. 
An important webinar today will examine the film’s insights with its creators and leading star – and discuss whether China’s biological warfare program has been tasked with depopulating this country and the possibility that mRNA technology Tony Fauci shared with it is making vaccines lethal, too.

The transformative nature of Donald Trump’s second presidency is particularly evident in his efforts to reshape U.S. trade policy. He’s employed tariffs to rebalance commercial relationships that have long benefited other nations to our great detriment.
Yesterday, Apple CEO Tim Cook used a White House appearance to commit to invest $600 billion to manufacture its products in this country. His words evinced a profound, and deeply inspiring, tariff-induced sea-change in corporate attitudes:
“We're going to keep making investments right here in America. And we're going to keep hiring in America. And we're going to keep building technologies at the heart of our products right here in America because we're a proud American company and we believe deeply in the promise of this great nation….Thank you President Trump for…putting American innovation and American jobs front and center.”
Amen.

The Chinese Communist Party is preparing for the invasion of Taiwan and other violent acts in the Pacific, and possibly here. Incredibly, Wall Street continues enabling such behavior by underwriting the CCP military’s unprecedented build-up.
Simultaneously, our own defense industry and armed forces are insanely reliant on CCP’s sources of rare earth minerals and components. A new Government Accountability Office analysis found that, “These suppliers may cut off U.S. access to critical materials or provide ‘back doors’ in their technology that serve as intelligence pathways.” 
It is unconscionable that such dependencies – and the associated, potentially catastrophic vulnerabilities – have been allowed in the first place. As with Wall Street’s ongoing treachery, the policies and practices that have gotten us into this fix must be formally repudiated and abandoned, and those responsible held accountable. And corrective measures must be made urgent national priorities.

The wheels of justice appear to be spinning at a higher RPM these days. Attorney General Pam Bondi reportedly has ordered a federal prosecutor to submit evidence to a grand jury about what the media is branding as “Russiagate.” 
She’s responding to a criminal referral of what the source of such evidence, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, calls a treasonous coup led by former President Barack Obama. Therefore, a more apt descriptor of the epic scandal would be “Obamagate.”
It remains to be seen whether a recent Supreme Court ruling shielding presidents from prosecution for official acts while in the White House will protect Donald Trump’s predecessor for his alleged involvement in such a conspiracy. Obama’s complicity must, however, be investigated, along with many of his senior subordinates’ – and prosecuted, at a minimum, in the court of public opinion.
