Secure Freedom Minute

In the closing days of this presidential campaign, you’d never know that the Chinese Communist Party is at war with us.
In fact, as nearly two-hundred webinars conducted by our Committee on the Present Danger: China have documented, the Chinese Communists’ warfare has caused us incalculable harm over many years. And they are now poised to add a shooting war into the mix.
A Soviet Communist named Leon Trotsky famously declared, “You may not be interested in war. But war is interested in you.”
According to the Wall Street Journal, the Harris-Biden administration’s cultural Marxist focus on “diversity, equity and inclusion” has left the U.S. military demoralized and undermanned, clearly ill-prepared for conflict with China.
American voters urgently need the truth about this perilous situation – and clarity about what the presidential candidates think, and are going to do, about it.

Yesterday, President Donald Trump powerfully differentiated himself from Vice President Kamala Harris on an issue of profound importance to millions of voters.
He noted in a Truth Social post that she did “NOTHING as 120,000 Armenian Christians were horrifically persecuted and forcibly displaced” from an enclave in Azerbaijan known as Artsakh.
He went on to warn that “Christians around the world will not be safe if…Harris is President” and that he will protect persecuted Christians, of whom there are estimated to be over 365 million worldwide.
Incredibly, the UN decided to reward Azerbaijan for its past persecution of Christians and to ignore its promise to attack Armenia next by holding a climate change conference in Baku next month.
Kamala Harris should start demonstrating solidarity with persecuted Christians by announcing the U.S. government will not “greenwash” Azeri genocide and will boycott Baku.

What is the “enemy within”? The term refers to elements inside America – some of foreign origin, some domestic – who seek our destruction and are, to varying degrees, in a position to contribute to it. This threat has been neglected for far too long, at our extreme peril.
Harris-Biden administration policies have enormously exacerbated the danger, allowing vast numbers of Chinese soldiers, jihadists, Venezuelan and other gang members to come here from overseas. Then, there are the home-grown Marxists and Sharia-supremacists doing business as Antifa, Black Lives Matter and the Muslim Brotherhood.
There’s reason to believe the administration has actually put such enemies’ sympathizers in senior positions. One of them is suspected of devastatingly leaking to Iran highly classified information about Israel’s preparations to retaliate against its toxic regime.
We must as a nation acknowledge, identify and root out the enemies within now.

A former senior undercover CIA operative named Gary Berntsen has released a video in which he asserts, based apparently on first-hand knowledge, that machines widely used in elections across the United States are unreliable.
The charges are not new. They include claims that Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez developed them to steal one of his own elections. And then, with help from others in Europe and China, the software and hardware were refined to engineer undetected desired electoral outcomes worldwide.
What is new news is that Mr. Berntsen reportedly has not only personal insights into how we got here. He claims to have witnesses able and willing to confirm his allegations.
If true, we obviously cannot have such compromised machines used in this fall’s critically important elections. We must, instead, hand-count paper ballots cast in person by voters with valid government-issued IDs.

The Harris-Biden administration has serially betrayed Israel to prevent her from destroying Hamas, Hezbollah and the Iranian regime that runs them.
Threats to cut off the vital and promised resupply of weapons the Israelis require to defend themselves have been accompanied by successive diplomatic actions aimed at isolating – and even criminalizing – them and efforts to topple their democratically elected government.
Now, it appears a U.S. official with access to highly classified information about Israel’s preparations for a fully warranted retaliatory strike against Iran has deliberately divulged it to the mullahs. The repercussions for our ally are potentially catastrophic. Ditto the compromise of our “sources and methods” for gathering such sensitive intelligence.
Far from encouraging peace in the Middle East, the American government’s subversion is ensuring that the remainder of the war Israel must win will be more protracted, far wider and more devastating.

Yesterday, Israel killed another jihadist monster with American, as well as Israeli, blood on his hands. Kamala Harris believes that should be the end of the war to destroy the Hamas movement that Yahya Sinwar led in the attack on October 7th and its bid to destroy the Jewish State before and since.
Even prior to Sinwar’s liquidation, the Harris-Biden administration was coercing Israel effectively to give Hamas “humanitarian assistance” in northern Gaza or face a cut-off of promised weapons deliveries essential to her survival in this now eight-front war.
And after the election, irrespective of the winner, it seems likely the administration will take an even more counterproductive step by extending official U.S. recognition to the non-existent state of Palestine.
Memo to Kamala: The vast majority of Americans want our ally, Israel, to defeat – not lose to – Hamas. So should you.
