Public health officials insist that very young children and the elderly should keep being jabbed with so-called COVID-19 “vaccines.”
If we have learned anything from the pandemic, it is that there are real and still-metastasizing problems with putting such mRNA gene therapies into our bodies and that authorities who tell us to do so may have the best interests of Big Pharma in mind but not ours.
A crowd-sourced examination of Pfizer documents confirmed that COVID vax’s manufacturer knew it had serious – and sometimes deadly – design, quality control, and testing defects.
Now, a growing number of states are actively considering bringing criminal charges against former officials like Dr. Anthony Fauci for their diabolical roles in the pandemic and the associated, needless loss of life. Making America Healthy Again requires, among other things, accountability for those responsible for doing the opposite.

Seventy countries have responded to President Trump’s insistence on reciprocity in bilateral trade relations by seeking to negotiate with the United States. Communist China is not among them.
While the Chinese Communist Party left the door to negotiations open a crack, its overwhelming response is belligerent retaliation. Obviously, it hopes to avoid humiliating submission – and, if possible, to induce U.S. trade partners to join instead China’s exploitative mercantilist arrangements.
There’s another explanation: The CCP is at war with America. It makes no secret of seeking our destruction using pre-kinetic “unrestricted warfare,” notably including predatory trade. 
President Trump is right to apply high tariffs to accelerate our needed economic disengagement from such a foe and its weaponized supply chains. He must also enforce his “America First Investment Policy” and prevent Wall Street from further underwriting our mortal enemy, the Chinese Communist Party.

President Trump has set the stage for further, dramatic tariffs on a recalcitrant Chinese Communist Party, possibly exceeding 100% on its imports. He is catalyzing an economic disengagement from that mortal enemy that is long overdue.
As it happens, the President has another source of leverage in the form of an “America First Investment Policy” he unveiled on February 21st.
The essence of that policy is to reduce both dangerous “inbound” Chinese investments here and “outbound” U.S. investments that prop up the CCP, enable its military build-up and underwrite its totalitarian repression of the people of China.
Four Wall Street firms are intent, however, on maintaining their China First investment policy by raising over $7 billion for CATL, one of Beijing’s military and slave labor-exploiting companies. If you order them to stop, Mr. President, you will get Xi Jinping’s attention for sure.

Last week, the Senate Armed Services Committee held a confirmation hearing for the man President Trump has selected to be the Nation’s top military officer: Lieutenant General John Caine. This warrior’s replacement of Joe Biden’s Joint Chiefs Chairman, General C.Q. Brown, couldn’t be more welcome – or needed.
General Caine, known by his Air Force pilot’s call sign “Raizin,” was not only selected over myriad active duty four-star officers. He was also pulled out of retirement to take on this key job at a particularly fraught moment. In contrast to the previous chairman, he has focused on war-fighting, rather than promoting divisive, cultural Marxist “Woke” agendas. 
The Trump team of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Chairman Raizin Caine promises to provide the reboot of our military we urgently need. Let us pray they have time to reestablish the practice of “peace through strength.”

Just when it seemed the Chinese Communist Party’s penetration of America couldn’t get worse, it has. What could be more perilous than having, for example, 400 of China’s transformers in – and endangering – our electric grid and tens of thousands of PRC soldiers at large in our country? 
Well, decorated Green Beret veteran and newly minted Congressman Pat Harrigan has just revealed that there are GNC stores owned and operated by the CCP on eighty of our military bases. Every day, they purvey nutritional and other products that could be used to poison our servicemen and women. 
At a minimum, the Chinese are collecting detailed personal information on them that can be weaponized in various ways.
We may soon find ourselves in a shooting war with the Chinese Communist Party. Every one of these potential attack vectors must be addressed, and terminated, forthwith.

Donald Trump has staked his presidency on the proposition that the United States must once again be a manufacturing superpower, both for its economic and national security. Yesterday, he compellingly laid out the case for doing so and what it will entail in terms of reversing decades of trade policies that have imperiled both.
Specifically, the President is ending the practice whereby trading partners around the world impose tariffs and many other restrictions on American exports that have, heretofore, gone unreciprocated. He enumerated many of the most egregious examples of such unfair trade, and assigned U.S. tariffs that would “kindly” only partially level the field.
It remains to be seen how many countries will opt to close their markets further, rather than open them. My guess is that Donald Trump’s bet will substantially pay off, and help make American manufacturing great again.
