![]() (above) The Unabomber cabin China’s “Death to America” Plan By Cliff Kincaid – April 7, 2021 With some conservatives in virtual hysterics over the rollout of former President Trump’s Operation Warp Speed and still resisting life-saving vaccines, it’s no wonder that Chinese President Xi Jinping must feel he is in the driving seat of the “Great Reset” and the transformation of the world order. The U.S.-based anti-vaccine “resistance movement,” which claims the vaccines are more dangerous than the virus, is just what China needs to escape blame for the deaths of millions. We are usually accustomed to Iran’s rulers proclaiming, “Death to America,” but it’s the new Iranian partner, Communist China, that is doing the real dirty work. The two nations signed a 25-year agreement of “comprehensive cooperation,” laying the groundwork for major changes in the Middle East that threaten Israel’s survival. Conservative websites are full of scare stories about the vaccines, when the new vaccine technology endorsed by Trump holds out the hope of defeating this dangerous super-virus and finally returning our nation to a period of normalcy. Some are suspicious of the new vaccine technology, but technology is advancing in many different areas. A new technology for developing vaccines is simply one advance in the world of science and human health that holds great promise for the American people. In a different area, thanks to Trump, Chinese company Huawei's emerging dominance of emerging 5G telecommunications technology was reversed. Opposition to advances in science and technology which can benefit Americans constitutes a modern form of the Luddite mentality, at a time when scientific superiority is an absolute must for national survival The anti-technology resistance, represented in the past by such fanatics as the Unabomber, Ted Kaczynski, oppose progress and will make America further dependent on China. These opponents of progress are mostly on the left, as they oppose oil and gas technology that is made in America and instead worship Mother Earth, but they are also on the right and take the view that anything and everything that comes out of Big Pharma is harmful to human health. Yet it is a demonstrable fact that many drugs have saved lives and extended the human lifespan. If America listens to these modern Luddites, we will certainly lose to China in the technology race. What is lacking in some cases is what Trump did with American companies when he directed them to develop an anti-China virus vaccine to save American lives. Former White House trade adviser Peter Navarro, who did the film, “Death by China,” before he joined the Trump Administration, says with satisfaction that “The father of the [coronavirus] vaccine is Donald J. Trump.” Cutting through bureaucracy and regulations, he had predicted the U.S. would move in “Trump time” to have the vaccines quickly. He and the president were proven correct. It was a magnificent achievement. But some naysayers don’t want to give Trump credit. The Trump supporters who have now turned on his signature achievement -- vaccines in record time -- fail to come to grips with the fact that the vast majority of conservative Republicans fighting for the freedom to choose on this issue nevertheless endorse taking the vaccine. Trump knows more than most about the dangers of this virus, having contracted it. Later, he got the vaccine as a back-up. One columnist praised Florida Governor Ron DeSantis for banning vaccine passports without noting that he has fully endorsed the use of the vaccines and has in fact pioneered their use on the elderly population in his state. Sensational claims about the vaccines being used for purposes of “genocide” and depopulation make no sense either, by virtue of the fact that the small nation of Israel, which came into being after the Holocaust, is leading the world in vaccinations. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has spent most of his life fighting terrorism and protecting Israel’s existence as a nation-state, was described by a Pfizer executive as “obsessive” in his determination to save his nation from the China virus. Referring to Netanyahu, Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla was quoted by the Times of Israel as saying “He called me 30 times,” in order to obtain the Pfizer vaccine. Interestingly, Bourla is the Greek-born son of Holocaust survivors. The effort was so successful that Netanyahu proclaimed that the vaccine brought Israel “back to life” after so much pain, death, and suffering from the virus. Recognizing the same thing can happen to America, evangelist Franklin Graham did indeed support the vaccines. He cites the story of the Good Samaritan who helps others, in the modern version, by getting vaccinated and preventing the spread of the disease. His Samaritan’s Purse organization has partnered with local entities in North Carolina to vaccinate 3,500 people. Pastor John Hagee of Cornerstone Church in San Antonio, a leading supporter of Israel, was infected with the coronavirus last year and has now taken the vaccine. A spokesman said, “Pastor Hagee himself is taking the vaccine. Pastor Hagee believes in both the power of prayer and modern medicine. These are not mutually exclusive.” At the same time, Hagee is warning, “Our world is being restructured, leaving God out of the picture. The coronavirus changed America forever.” We can recognize the dangers of China and other political figures manipulating the circumstances surrounding the control of the disease while acknowledging it is a killer, whose death toll is now more than 2.8 million (with a U.S. death toll above 556,000). Endtime Ministries founder Irvin Baxter passed away “with complications from Covid-19,” his organization said last November. His book, The China War and the Third Temple, was a novel about a war between Communist China and the United States that produced “plague and global disaster.” In the Bible this is referred to as the Pale Horse of the Apocalypse. Now, that plague has taken Baxter’s life. My own book, The Sword of Revolution and the Communist Apocalypse, predicted China’s leadership role in the global communist revolution As people debate the meaning of the Book of Revelation, including the four horsemen of the apocalypse, Charisma Magazine has run an article noting that Pastor Greg Laurie of Harvest Christian Fellowship in Riverside, California, has given his opinion. He got the disease and has dismissed claims that the vaccine is somehow the biblical mark of the beast and heralds the appearance of the anti-Christ. If anyone has pretensions of being an “anti-Christ,” it is Chinese President Xi Jinping, as America’s leaders continue to dawdle in the face of Chinese aggression, genocide against Muslims, and mass murder using the China virus against the entire population of the world. He seems confident that his regime will overcome the campaign to move the 2022 Winter Olympics out from China. The “depopulation” scheme is already underway, as China mows down innocent people with a virus that most assuredly came out of a Wuhan lab and that many people fail to resist by taking life-saving vaccines to protect their families and friends. *Cliff Kincaid is president of America’s Survival, Inc. www.usasurvival.org

![]() American Corporate-funded Chinese Communism By Cliff Kincaid – April 5, 2021 It seems strange to some that Major League Baseball (MLB) pulled its All-Star game out of Atlanta, to punish Georgia for its voter ID law, but signed a deal with a Chinese company for rights to broadcast MLB games. It’s an indication that MLB recognizes China is in charge internationally, and that the Republicans’ days as a national political force in the United States are numbered. The MLB wants to help hammer the final nail into the coffin of the Republican Party. That means crushing free, honest, and fair elections, to make sure another Trump-like figure can never win a national election. Former President Donald Trump thunders, “It is finally time for Republicans and Conservatives to fight back -- we have more people than they do -- by far! Boycott Major League Baseball, Coca-Cola, Delta Airlines, JPMorgan Chase, ViacomCBS, Citigroup, Cisco, UPS, and Merck. Don't go back to their products until they relent. We can play the game better than them.” But Trump has no power anymore. He is still banned by media allies of the ruling One-Party state. His Operation Warp Speed will save millions of Americans from the China virus but he rarely gets credit for that, and many of his (former) supporters are still afraid of the vaccine. However, this vaccine roll-out demonstrated what could happen when an American president mobilizes the resources of American science and technology to save American lives, rather than serve Chinese interests. In terms of numbers, China has more “people power” exercised through the Chinese Communist Party and a global alliance of communist groups around the world, including the Communist Party USA. This group, thought by many to be insignificant, was behind the nomination and confirmation of Deb Haaland as Secretary of the Interior, in charge of America’s oil and gas resources on federal land. Bowing to “Mother Earth,” she favors legal pot to generate jobs and government revenue in the new economy. In order for Communist China to dominate the world, any chance of a Republican comeback on the national stage must be nipped in the bud. The MLB has, in effect, become an adjunct of the Chinese Communist Party. Other corporations have followed this trend. Marxists see this as a major development in America’s transition to socialism and communism. The Republican counter-attack -- to remove MLB’s decades-old antitrust exemption -- is too little too late, and won’t pass anyway in a Democratic Party-controlled Congress. What this means is that the days when the Republicans were the party of Big Business are over. The GOP will be left with the people who elected Trump – middle-income Americans. Ironically, what can possibly save America in the current predicament is what the Marxists originally proposed – a working class revolution. Domestically, conservatives need to take advantage of the one group formerly in the Democratic Party camp that is now totally disillusioned with Marxist politics – the workers and their families, who, in the words of Barack Hussein Obama, want to “cling” to their guns and religion. If you’re perplexed by big corporations making deals with China, while attacking America’s system of government (such as states administering federal elections), it makes sense to Marxists. These are prime examples of what the Marxists call the highest stage of capitalism. It means old-fashioned capitalism is finished and is being replaced by monopoly capitalism and the power of what’s called “finance capital,” the hedge funds and big banks. Marxists call this imperialism, except today it’s on China’s terms. China is today’s global imperialist power, using a pandemic caused by the China virus to consolidate power. On cue, in regard to Biden's $3 trillion "infrastructure" plan, socialist scholar Paul LeBlanc's article, "Socialist Convergence and the Green New Deal," is relevant. Written before Biden "won" the election, he says: “It is possible and necessary to build a powerful mass socialist movement in the United States by 2030 that could be in a position to provide an effective challenge to capitalism and transition to a socialist democracy.” We have to understand, as Karl Marx predicted in the Communist Manifesto, that the new developments in America, on the road to socialism and then communism, include putting the means of communication (Google, Facebook, Twitter, etc.) in the hands of the state and using capitalism as a hammer to force the rest of us into compliance with the socialist agenda of the ruling class. We have some freedom left in America but it’s quickly dissipating. In China, as even the Biden State Department report on China shows, there is no freedom. Our future, if the Chinese model is imposed on America, includes:
This stage of development is something that V.I. Lenin and Marxist scholars have written about for decades. Depending on the particular historical circumstances and conditions of a country, certain things will occur. As I see it, based on my study of Marx, who was a keen observer of America during the Civil War, we are now in the process of the state exercising control (though not direct ownership) of the major means of production. That includes actual production of consumer goods and monetary manipulation through the Federal Reserve. Remember a key plank of the Communist Manifesto was “Centralization of credit in the hands of the state, by means of a national bank with State capital and an exclusive monopoly.” By one estimate, Federal Reserve spending during the pandemic has exceeded $7.4 trillion. In effect, major engines of corporate capitalism have become prime movers of the historical process of moving a country from capitalism into socialism. They have become instruments of the state. There are some honest leftists recoiling in horror at all of this. But they call it fascism. True Marxists regard it as a significant stage on the road to world communism. Taking this process one step further on the global level, Secretary of the Treasury Janet L. Yellen just gave a speech on “International Priorities” that included “working with G20 nations to agree to a global minimum corporate tax rate…” This is the beginning of a global tax, which requires what they call “global governance.” But don’t think the so-called “woke companies,” as Trump called them, will pay the bill. You will. On top of a rise in the corporate tax rate, which will be passed on to consumers, there will likely be a “financial transaction tax,” also known as the Tobin tax globally, to finance world government. Ignoring China’s role in mass murder, Yellen added, “Beyond our borders, as the pandemic has made clearer than ever before, the global community is in this together. We will fare better if we work together and support each other.” On that basis, the American government agencies and major corporations that worked with China before the release of the virus will continue to do so, as if nothing has changed. At this point, we need a real “people’s revolution” against the Marxists in power in China and America. *Cliff Kincaid is president of American’s Survival, Inc. www.usasurvival.org ![]() Race With The Devil By Cliff Kincaid – April 3, 2021 As my family was visiting Rome in February of 2020, we took a tour of the Colosseum only to discover a statue of Moloch, the pagan deity of child sacrifice, being displayed. It was truly shocking. The Colosseum is viewed by many Christians as a sacred site because early Christians were martyred there. Sacrifice and resurrection are what we celebrate on Easter. But the devil is staging a counter-attack. On Good Friday, a Nation of Islam lunatic fanatic attacked the Capitol and died in a confrontation with police. He killed one officer and injured another. He believed, as Louis Farrakhan does, that white people are devils. He described Farrakhan as the Messiah and posted the statement, “The U.S. Government is the no. 1 enemy of Black people!” Exhibiting similar thinking, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, the first black man to lead the Pentagon, vows to purge the “enemies within.” He leaves no doubt these are white people of a conservative persuasion. We are constantly lectured about the “systemic nature of racist police violence” in the murder trial of police officer Derek Chauvin, when the evidence shows that the black “victim,” George Floyd, was high on drugs, kicking and screaming, and foaming at the mouth. The police had no alternative but to pin him down with a knee to the neck, an acceptable police procedure when a suspect goes berserk. Almost everywhere you look, in the name of diversity and inclusion, white people, especially white men, are demonized, when it’s the black family in need of redemption. But rather than address this problem, black leadership demonizes “whitey,” demands reparations, and resists demands for fair and honest elections. Their constant racist bullying has now forced Major League Baseball to toe the line, making sports another instrument for Marxist domination of the culture. The corruption is deep, affecting all major institutions, but the impact in the military has to be considered in some detail. The U.S. Navy now teaches that sailors can promote Black Lives Matter, a group that explicitly called for disrupting the “Western-prescribed nuclear family structure” before this statement was taken down for being too Marxist. In this context, Mark J. Perry has posted new data from the National Center for Health Statistics on the percent of U.S. births to unmarried women by race in 2019. Blacks are at the top, with 70 percent. With tongue in cheek, scholar Charles Murray commented, “Nothing to see here. Move along.” Moving on, the Defense Department has issued a press release saying the Pentagon “proudly recognizes transgender and gender non-conforming people and their continued struggle for equality, security and dignity." Pentagon Press Secretary John F. Kirby said the DOD “will lead by example in the cause of advancing the human rights of LGBTIQ people around the world, ”with LGBTIQ standing for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex and questioning individuals. I question how the mighty Defense Department can accept DNA deniers into the ranks and make their comfort and safety a high priority. The answer, of course, is that this stems from executive orders issued by China Joe Biden. With the Armed Forces in decline and disarray, our only hope is that sheer military equipment, in terms of bombs, missiles, ships, and planes, will provide a deterrent of some sort to our enemies. Perhaps our military muscle alone can save us. In an example of perfect timing, so we can understand the nature of the real enemy within, the great book, Color, Communism, and Common Sense - A True Story, has been re-published. The author, Manning Johnson, a member of the Communist Party USA’s Negro Commission and its National Committee, describes how a communist campaign was launched after the Russian revolution to exploit the “Negro question” in the U.S. and manipulate blacks and members of other minority groups for communist purposes. The new post-Christian global order under development is being implemented in China and holds that a small group of powerful people will manage the future through technocracy. Some of these people believe in “transhumanism,” the use of science and technology to enhance human mental and physical characteristics, creating a virtual super-race of humans that effectively weeds out the white race and capitalism and “patriarchy” along with it. China’s “Motherland,” with those racial connotations, will assume the leading role. On the cutting edge of research that includes creating the world’s first genetically-altered babies, China has created a super-virus that continues to wipe out millions of people through variants without end. Caught off-guard by the Chinese experiments and suspicious of Big Pharma and the global elites working with China, some Americans refuse to take advantage of life-saving vaccines developed under the auspices of former President Trump’s Operation Warp Speed. Trump got Covid but also took the vaccine and highly recommends it, as he was directing the behind-the-scenes effort that used American ingenuity and science to produce a near miracle that defeats China’s advance and plan for world domination. Israel understands the stakes, using the vaccines to survive another planned holocaust that has already taken 2.8 million lives on the global level. A member of the global elite, Jeffrey Epstein believed that he would, personally, be resurrected and experience a form of eternal life. But as “the man who knew too much” with connections to Harvard and billionaires in charge of the global transition, he had to pay the price with a convenient “suicide,” when his pedophilia became too explicit for law enforcement authorities to ignore. Our media have been to busy suppressing “conspiracy theories” about a Satanic elite practicing pedophilia to let Epstein carry on publicly for too long. As we hopefully come to our senses with God’s guidance and return to basic Biblical truths, one important place to start is National DNA Day on April 25. The Marxist left will, of course, attempt to exploit this event with special seminars, discussions and guest speakers for their own purposes. Their agenda, carried forward in Jeffrey Epstein’s absence, is to re-engineer humanity. China is their model and hope for the world. It sounds simplistic, but we should begin by emphasizing the basic facts of life, revealed in DNA, that men are men, and women are women. Another fact of life is that an unborn baby is unique from the moment of conception because of its DNA. These happen to correspond with Biblical truths. Biden/Harris, who claim to be people of faith, believe that a baby is the property of the mother, in the same way slaves were the property of slave owners. Biden/Harris are DNA deniers who oppose the scientific proof of human life and human differences. In this monumental debate, which goes to the heart of the Christian faith, we will find out whether Christians will defend that faith. The devil, if truth be told, is behind this assault on Christianity. The reality of this spiritual battle was impressed upon me when, a year ago, on the occasion of Easter, I wrote a column noting that six exorcisms were being conducted in the Catholic Archdiocese of Washington. An exorcism in Mount Rainier, Maryland, in the Washington, D.C. area, inspired the book by William Peter Blatty and the film, “The Exorcist.” Blatty also wrote Legion, a book about demons based on Satan’s proclamation, “My name is Legion, for we are many,” in answer to Jesus’ question, “What is your name?” His book The Ninth Configuration (also a film) examines our present circumstances, looking at the improbability based on mathematics that the earth was created by chance. But if we are here because of God, why doesn’t He save us? “Maybe God can't interfere in our affairs,” says one character. "Maybe God can't interfere because to do so would spoil his plan for something in the future. Some evolution of man and the world that's so unimaginably beautiful that it's worth all the tears and all the pain of every suffering thing that ever lived; and maybe when we get to that moment in time we'll look back and say, “Yes; yes, I'm glad that it was so!” God can't interfere but He can make his presence known, in a way that defies human logic and demands faith. Many countries go through periods of decline. The Christian existentialist philosopher, Soren Kierkegaard, had described corruption in the Danish State Church, declaring that everyone knew privately that the system was rotten and corrupt but they would not say so publicly. “Just as one says that death has marked a man, so we recognize the symptoms which demand to be attacked. It is a battle against lies,” he said. That is our society today. Kierkegaard took a leap of faith into Christianity, as opposed to Jean-Paul Sartre, an existentialist who took a disastrous leap of faith into Marxism. America has made a leap into Marxism. America’s current plight reminds me of the 1975 film, "Race With The Devil," about friends trying to escape a Satanic cult. On a road trip and vacation in the wilderness, they witness from afar a human sacrifice and try to escape when they are discovered by the Satanic participants. At the end the vacationers think they're safe when they are actually surrounded. In real life, we, too, are surrounded. “When you race with the devil, you better be faster than hell,” says the announcer for the film. America may not survive without outside help. *Cliff Kincaid is president of America’s Survival, Inc. www.usasurvival.org ![]() America’s Leaders Dawdle as the China Plague Continues to Kill By Cliff Kincaid – April 1, 2021 One of the most popular lies among conservatives is that the coronavirus is as harmless as the common cold. President Trump, who launched Operation Warp Speed to develop anti-China virus vaccines, disagreed. We are beginning to find out, even from the “official” sources, that the virus came out of a Chinese weapons laboratory. The United States is presently facing three dangerous threats -- China, Russia and Iran. But instead of exposing these threats, especially the on-going plague, one “popular” conservative commentator is attacking people who followed Trump’s advice and are taking the vaccines. He calls vaccinated people “walking biological time bombs” because they are trying to be, in the words of Franklin Graham, good Samaritans. Evangelist Graham says that, based on the parable of the Good Samaritan in the Bible, “Jesus Christ would advocate for people using vaccines and medicines to treat suffering and save lives.” People I know are taking the vaccines because they want their families, friends, and loved ones to live. They believe the scientists commissioned by former President Trump in Operation Warp Speed have made a tremendous breakthrough in vaccine technology at a time when we need it the most. Like Trump, who took the vaccine, they are trusting America’s scientists, who, under Trump’s direction, cut through the government bureaucracy in a race to develop vaccines and save lives. Israel, whose survival is always threatened by the Arab/Muslim bloc, is taking no chances, using the same vaccines to save their own people. Franklin Graham has seen the suffering, saying, “Samaritan’s Purse has operated COVID-19 emergency field hospitals, and we have seen the suffering firsthand. I also have staff and their family members who contracted the virus and spent weeks on a ventilator and months hospitalized as a result -- I don’t want anyone to have to go through that. Vaccines have worked for polio, smallpox, measles, the flu and so many other deadly illnesses -- why not for this virus?" He adds, “My wife and I have both had the vaccine; and at 68 years old, I want to get as many more miles out of these old bones as possible!” Don’t be confused by baseball and basketball games occurring. Unless we reach coronavirus herd immunity quickly, the plague will continue to spread. Former Republican vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin is the latest conservative to have an awakening about the China virus. She is quick to note the “bizarre” symptoms, including the loss of taste and smell. She didn’t take it seriously enough until members of her family got it. Now she recommends the use of masks. Consider the damage already done by the Communist Chinese. Author and filmmaker Robert Orlando says that, as a result of unleashing this virus on the world, “China is now positioned geopolitically the way the U.S. was in the post-World War II era of 1945. For very different reasons than the U.S displayed then, China is now the emerging hegemony.” He adds, “One leak of the virus has set us back almost 10 trillion dollars. Combined with fear, it has weakened our once rugged nation-state, which now appears blindly committed to its own silent decline. If you were in China, and the self-destructive war was the only alternative, isn’t this what you'd do?” There are many stories from the victims. I have heard them. One victim of the China virus who was treated by Franklin Graham's Samaritan's Purse said: “My body would not relax for me. I went to the bathroom, and my throat started swelling. I couldn’t hear, and my son was crying, ‘Mom, wake up, please.’ Suddenly I couldn’t see anything, only black, and then I couldn’t hear his voice anymore.” The death and suffering are real. This is not the common cold or the flu. A neutral observer, Italian Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano, former apostolic nuncio to the United States, declares, “We know that the SARS-CoV-2 virus was in all probability produced in a laboratory with the complicity of the Chinese dictatorship. Since China is one of the main financiers of the World Health Organization (WHO) after the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, it has been able to prevent any investigation on the origin of the virus or the early stages of its spread.” A true whistleblower, Chinese virologist Dr. Li-Meng Yan was on Tucker Carlson’s show and released a report indicating that the SARS CoV-2 Coronavirus was created in the Wuhan lab and deliberately released to every nation in the world. Even World Health Organization (WHO) Director-General Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus calls for further studies and is not taking the word of the Chinese communists that the virus came from an animal. “The role of animal markets is still unclear,” he says. He adds, “The team also visited several laboratories in Wuhan and considered the possibility that the virus entered the human population as a result of a laboratory incident. However, I do not believe that this assessment was extensive enough. Further data and studies will be needed to reach more robust conclusions. Although the team has concluded that a laboratory leak is the least likely hypothesis, this requires further investigation, potentially with additional missions involving specialist experts, which I am ready to deploy.” This is about as far as he can or will go. After all, China, he notes, “participated” in the report. Even worse, Biden Secretary of State Antony Blinken, who is supposed to work for the American people, was asked by CNN host Dana Bash if he considers China the United States' biggest adversary and he would only say there “are clearly and increasingly adversarial aspects of the relationship.” His next answer was even worse. She asked, “You said at your confirmation hearing, Mr. Secretary, that you believe the Chinese government misled the world about coronavirus. Given that and the millions of people, of course, who have died around the world, should China be punished for that?” He answered, “You know, I think the issue for us is to make sure that we do everything possible to prevent another pandemic, even as we're working through this one, or at the very least to make sure that we can mitigate in much more effective ways any damage done if something happens in the future.” He later said that “we do need to have both accountability for the past, but I think our focus needs to be on building a stronger system for the future.” Millions are dead, including more than half a million Americans, and he wants to focus instead on the future. No wonder he works for China Joe. Meanwhile, Congress failed to act on H.R.6519 the “Holding the Chinese Communist Party Accountable for Infecting Americans Act of 2020.” Only 10 House members bothered to co-sponsor the Rep. Dan Crenshaw bill. This is worse than a cover-up. This is complicity in mass murder. Sadly, even to this day, some conservatives debate the nature of the virus, the virus tests, masks, and so forth, without holding the Red Chinese rulers accountable for what they have done. They attack the vaccinated and not the communists who unleashed the virus. They will be burying their dead as a New World Order emerges, with China on top and a “post-communist” Russia and Islamic Iran playing second and third fiddle. With our own government failing to protect the nation as a whole, our only option is to save ourselves. That means self-defense and survival. Thank heaven Trump was in power long enough to start the process of providing life-saving vaccines. *Cliff Kincaid is president of America’s Survival, Inc. www.usasurvival.org RELEASE: Wittman Invites Defense Spending Reduction Caucus to Classified Briefing on Threats
Washington, March 25, 2021 WASHINGTON- Today, Congressman Wittman (VA-01) announced he has responded to a letter sent to President Biden from the Defense Spending Reduction Caucus urging drastic cuts to the Defense budget by inviting every member of the caucus to attend a classified briefing on the existential threats faced by the United States in the twenty-first century. Announcing his letter, Congressman Wittman stated: “While we live in a budget-constrained environment, we also live in an increasingly dangerous world. We are facing threats at home and abroad from state actors like China, Russia, North Korea, and Iran and we must ensure we have a strategy and the resources to deal with those threats. Now is the exact wrong time to be calling for blanket cuts to national security funding. Instead, Congress must work to streamline functions and make sure we are maximizing our dollars spent. Simply put, there is no shortage of global powers who wish to see the United States, our partners, and allies falter and fail. Ultimately, national defense is not just about protecting the homeland — it is about preventing conflicts from escalating, eliminating future threats, and deterring those who have malicious intent toward the American people,” Wittman wrote in his letter. “Not only am I concerned with the calls to cut funding for national security, but also with the clear lack of a plan to deal with the existential threats posed by Great Powers Competition should your cuts be enacted. Unless we plan to concede the twenty-first century to malign autocracies such as China and Russia, I find this to be untenable. These growing threats will not go away just because you wish to ignore them.” Wittman’s letter further reads, “Your recent letter to President Biden, along with the previous attempt to cut support for our armed services, leads me to believe it may be beneficial for members of your caucus to receive a classified brief on the enormity of the threats we face in this era of Great Powers Competition. I, myself, have received these briefings, and I can assure you they are staggering. It is my hope that once you understand the threat, you will reconsider your stance. I stand ready to help facilitate these classified briefs should you wish to learn more.” On March 16th, the Defense Reduction Caucus, led by Congressman Mark Pocan (D-WI-2), Congresswoman Barbara Lee (D-CA-13), and Congressman Jake Auchincloss (D-MA-4) sent a letter to President Biden suggesting we cut more than 10 percent of the Defense budget. As Vice Ranking Member of the House Armed Services Committee, Congressman Wittman believes cuts to our national defense would not only endanger America’s warfighters, but cede global control to China and leave the United States vulnerable to Russia, North Korea and Iran. Furthermore, he stands strong in his conviction that we need a military that not only projects power around the globe but is fully prepared to take on the challenges we ask of them in order to keep our nation secure and that cuts to our defense would endanger innocent American lives and make our country more vulnerable. China continues its unprecedented aggressive actions, such as pushing into contested territory in India, attempting to subdue Hong Kong, and continuing to antagonize partner nations in the South China Sea. China now has the capability to directly threaten our homeland from a ballistic missile submarine. What's more, China has the largest navy in the world—having more than tripled in size in only two decades. By the end of 2020, the Chinese fleet consisted of 360 ships and within four years they are expected to operate as many as 400 ships and submarines—compared to our current 296 ship count. To make matters worse, China is planning to grow its nuclear weapons arsenal in a big way—likely at least doubling its nuclear warhead stockpile over the coming years. On top of the Chinese threat, Russia advances its malign global state-building agenda through overt means while simultaneously using paramilitary mercenaries such as the Wagner Group to do the Kremlin’s more insidious bidding, Iran continues to terrorize the Middle East, and North Korea remains a global nuclear threat. Simply put, now is not the time to compromise our national security. Congressman Rob Wittman represents the 1st District of Virginia. He serves on the House Natural Resources Committee and the House Armed Services Committee, where he serves as the Vice Ranking Member of the full Committee and Ranking Member of the Seapower and Projection Forces Subcommittee. Read the full letter below: March 24, 2021 The Honorable Mark Pocan The Honorable Barbara Lee Co-Chairman Co-Chairwoman Defense Spending Reduction Caucus Defense Spending Reduction Caucus 1727 Longworth House Office Building 2470 Rayburn House Office Building Washington, D.C. 20515 Washington, D.C. 20515 The Honorable Jake Auchincloss Co-Chairman Defense Spending Reduction Caucus 1524 Longworth House Office Building Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear Defense Spending Reduction Caucus Co-Chairmen and Co-Chairwoman: I write to you today to invite you to attend a classified briefing on the existential threats posed to the United States by Great Powers Competition. It has come to my attention that your caucus is renewing a push to cut funding for our Department of Defense (DOD). In your letter to President Biden, you suggested we could cut more than 10 percent of the Defense budget. This number echoes an amendment offered by Representative Pocan to the House floor during the passage of the FY21 National Defense Authorization Act. Fortunately, a supermajority voted down this amendment, including the large majority of Democrats. However, if passed, this amendment would have cut the DOD topline, excepting the Defense Health Program, Military Personnel accounts, and Civilian Personnel, resulting in a 16% cut to all other accounts. This cut is more than double, in real terms, the cuts imposed on the military during sequestration. Moreover, these cuts would have cut tens of billions from critical training and maintenance programs, over $200 million from military housing accounts, $17 billion from the research and development programs vital to keeping our competitive edge against Russia and China, and $160 million from pandemic preparedness. While we live in a budget-constrained environment, we also live in an increasingly dangerous world. We are facing threats at home and abroad from state actors like China, Russia, North Korea, and Iran and we must ensure we have a strategy and the resources to deal with those threats. Now is the exact wrong time to be calling for blanket cuts to national security funding. Instead, Congress must work to streamline functions and make sure we are maximizing our dollars spent. Simply put, there is no shortage of global powers who wish to see the United States, our partners, and allies falter and fail. Ultimately, national defense is not just about protecting the homeland — it is about preventing conflicts from escalating, eliminating future threats, and deterring those who have malicious intent toward the American people. The source of my concerns, however, comes not just from your caucus’ calls to cut funding for national security, but the clear lack of a plan to deal with the existential threats posed by Great Powers Competition should your cuts be enacted. Unless you plan to concede the twenty-first century to malign autocracies such as China and Russia, I find this to be untenable. These growing threats will not go away just because you wish to ignore them. As such, your recent letter to President Biden, along with the previous attempt to cut support for our armed services, leads me to believe it may be beneficial for members of your caucus to receive a classified brief on the enormity of the threats we face in this era of Great Powers Competition. I, myself, have received these briefings, and I can assure you they are staggering. It is my hope that once you understand the threat, you will reconsider your stance. I stand ready to help facilitate these classified briefs should you wish to learn more. Sincerely, Robert J. Wittman Member of Congress 07.28.20
Reps. Lee, Pocan Announce Defense Spending Reduction Caucus Washington, D.C. – A week after introducing an amendment to cut the defense budget by 10%, Congresswoman Barbara Lee and Congressman Mark Pocan—both members of the House Appropriations Committee—are announcing the creation of the Defense Spending Reduction Caucus. The Caucus intends to build on the support garnered by the amendment, which received 93 votes in the House last week. At a time when the majority of American people would support a cut to the defense budget, this Caucus will serve as an organizing point to continue demanding reductions to the Pentagon’s bloated defense budget. “Wasteful defense spending does not make our communities safer – it only weakens our ability to respond to crises,” said Congresswoman Lee. “Black and Brown people continue to be the ones that suffer most. We can’t keep spending billions for weapons while leaving our people defenseless against COVID. The Defense Spending Reduction Caucus will support our efforts to redirect wasteful defense spending toward investing in human needs.” “For too long, Congress has put the profits of defense contractors above the needs of the American people, said Congressman Pocan. “Last week’s $740 billion defense budget represents a 20% increase in just four years at a time of relative peace. From unnecessary new nuclear weapons to the Space Force to the ballooning use of outside contractors—our Pentagon spending is growing more rapidly than needed with abundant waste and endless wars. With this new caucus, we hope to lead Congress in decreasing and redirecting the defense budget.” How Woke Conservatives Cancel Their Own Culture
By Cliff Kincaid – March 28, 2021 Conservatives have canceled their own culture. Glenn Beck was a recent example, blasting anti-communist Senator Joe McCarthy and warning of a new “Red Scare” targeting conservatives. We should have taken the old Red Scare more seriously and could have avoided our current fate. That fate, recently described by federal Judge Laurence Silberman, is the “ideological consolidation” of the media in the hands of the Democratic Party and its allies. Marx called it the centralization of the means of communications in the hands of the state. My YouTube channel, America’s Survival TV, is one of many conservative outlets which have suffered as a result. The censors have decided that I have offended them not once but twice, with the two “strikes” leading inevitably to the removal of my work, including conferences and interviews on the Marxism problem, going back decades. They have the kind of power that can destroy my property at their whim since they provided the platform for my 400 videos. Of course, I was persuaded to start a channel in the first place because of the misguided notion that YouTube welcomed free and fair debate on all the major issues of our time. Since the Democratic Party assumed control of the White House and Congress, the censorship has accelerated. The Marxist consolidation of power has been driven in part by a reaction against “McCarthyism” that goes back decades. The public has been told that McCarthy persecuted innocent people and that the communists he pursued did not exist. But one of my mentors, M. Stanton Evans, an authoritative figure in the conservative movement, wrote the definitive biography of McCarthy, Blacklisted by History: The Untold Story of Senator Joe McCarthy and His Fight Against America's Enemies, which vindicated his anti-communist work. Confirmation of McCarthy’s charges came from an unexpected source. Washington Post Watergate reporter Carl Bernstein wrote a book, Loyalties, about his parents, Al and Sylvia Bernstein, being members of the Communist Party. Al Bernstein begged his son not to publish this book, saying, “You're going to prove McCarthy right because all he was saying was that the system was loaded with Communists. And he was right.” Bernstein had an axe to grind against those, like Richard Nixon, who exposed communists like Alger Hiss. Nixon’s downfall in Watergate brought to power Democrats who cut off aid to South Vietnam, producing a Communist bloodbath and genocide in Southeast Asia. McCarthy was unable to complete his investigation of communist infiltration of the government. Curiously, that probe was ended when McCarthy went into Bethesda Naval Hospital with a knee injury and came out dead from hepatitis. Revelations about communist infiltration of all American institutions, including journalism, surface with regularity. Former CIA officer Nicholas Reynolds wrote, Writer, Sailor, Soldier, Spy, about the famous writer and author Ernest Hemingway being a Soviet spy. Hemingway was recruited into the enemy camp on ideological grounds. On a recent show, Beck included Martin Luther King, Jr. on the list of innocent victims of the anti-communist witch hunt. He claimed the FBI decided to “spy” on King Jr. for no legitimate reason. This left-wing myth, accepted by conservatives, shows how “woke” some conservatives have become. They have “canceled” McCarthy to make themselves look acceptable in the eyes of the left. They have embraced King, even though, under the influence of communist advisers, he attacked the noble cause of resisting the advance of communism in Vietnam. It’s a shame that Beck has taken this turn, since I once organized a “Bring Back Beck” campaign after he was fired from Fox News for exposing George Soros. Ironically, before he started denouncing McCarthyism, he interviewed M. Stanton Evans about his book vindicating McCarthy. In this 2010 interview, Evans told Beck that in his research he found FBI files, “which backed up what McCarthy was saying,” and they “had been withheld for 50 years.” Evans added, “They show…essentially that he was right in general. There was a massive penetration of the government and that it was covered up and that he threatened that cover-up. And that is why he was isolated, demonized and destroyed. That's the technique.” I wrote about Beck’s recent show attacking McCarthyism, noting that he compares McCarthyism to the attacks on Trump supporters, as if McCarthy was somehow off target in going after communists in government. In addition to the examples of communist penetration of the U.S. government that I cited in my column, evidence from Soviet archives and the decoded Soviet cables known as the Venona intercepts vindicated McCarthy. In regard to the King matter, I suggest Beck consult a book by Caroline Kennedy, daughter of JFK and Jackie Kennedy, entitled, Jacqueline Kennedy: Historic Conversations on Life with John F. Kennedy. The book makes it abundantly clear that Jack and Bobby Kennedy, as well as Jackie, saw through the public façade of the Reverend King and knew him to be a proven liar about his communist connections and a scoundrel in terms of his personal life. Jackie called King a “phony” in the taped conversations that form the basis of the book. The facts also show that he was a plagiarist who stole material from other people and claimed it as his own. David J. Garrow explained some of the controversy in his 1981 book The FBI and Martin Luther King, Jr., as well as a 2002 Atlantic magazine article based on it. He notes that Bobby Kennedy, the Attorney General, authorized the FBI to begin wiretapping the telephones of King because he “believed that one of King’s closest advisers was a top-level member of the American Communist Party, and that King had repeatedly misled Administration officials about his ongoing close ties with the man.” The associate was Stanley Levison, who had been involved in Communist Party USA financial affairs and was helping to arrange funding of the party by Moscow. Beck was wrong for suggesting there was no legitimate reason to investigate King, and that the FBI did this on its own. Liberal Bobby Kennedy ordered J. Edgar Hoover to do it. What’s more, we all know, or should know by now, that King was a scoundrel in terms of his personal life. We can understand why Jackie called Reverend King a “phony” in the taped conversations that form the basis of the book. That’s because we now have a FBI report on the orgies he arranged and participated in. Jackie had access to that information. Some conservatives don’t want to talk about King’s character because they might be accused of racism. This is ironic since one of King’s famous quotes was judging people on the content of their character and not by their racial heritage. While Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was a fighter for civil rights and showed unique courage in opposing racism, he had his own serious flaws, one of which was failing to understand the dangers of Marxism. That Marxist movement has hijacked the black cause and today has made it into one of reparations. In order to further divide and demoralize America, Marxism took civil rights and applied it to homosexuals and transgenders. Harry Hay, the modern-day founder of the gay rights movement, was a member of the Communist Party who wore a dress and believed in the occult. All of this has been planned out in advance. Today, it even infects the U.S. military. We can’t recognize the predicament we’re in unless we give credit to those who dared to expose the communist threat when the Marxists began the process of infiltrating the American political system.
CAN CHINA AVOID THE FATE OF SOVIET RUSSIA?
By Bertill Haggman* To answer this question, it is necessary to go back to the founding of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) initiated by the Communist International (Comintern) agent Grigori Voitinsky (1893 – 1953). He was secretary of the Far Eastern Bureau (FEB) of the Comintern. He later became the founder of Soviet sinology. Voitinsky operated from Irkutsk, Siberia. The bureau was founded the same year as the Soviets initiated what was called ”the united front from below,” meaning that ”enemy parties” should be subverted by infiltration, The party was officially founded in Shanghai in 1921. Mao attended the founding as one of a small group of 57 delegates. Voitinsky operated from Irkutsk, Siberia. The united front tactics of Comintern was used by Antifa in the United States in the runup to the election during 2020. The Comintern in 1933 directed the Soviet-led Communist Party USA to form the American League Against War and Fascism. That group was in turn patterned after Germany’s Antifascist Action – or Antifa – formed one year earlier in 1932. CPUSA leader Manning Johnson testified to Congress in 1953 that the goal of the front group was never the abolishment of fascism, but rather “the subversion and subsequent overthrow of the United States.” The U.S. National Security Council’s Robert O’Brien in 2020 described Antifa foot soldiers as “militant radicals who come into our cities and cross state lines.” “They’re organized to use Molotov cocktails, fireworks and gas to burn down our cities, especially businesses in minority neighborhoods. It’s got to be stopped,” he said. That China uses political warfare tactics of the now defunct CPSU does not bode well for the CCP. The question seems only to be when the party will follow CPSU on the ash heap of history. The 1980s was a crucial decade for victory of the West in the Cold War. When President Ronald Reagan took over in 1980, the reduced defense spending had begun to threaten the security of the United States. President Reagan turned this around and spending increased from US $134 billion in 1980 to US $253 billion in 1985. The objective was to balance the Soviet buildup and thus give the United States strength at the negotiating table. The Reagan Administration also reversed the trend of Soviet expansionism. The half‑hearted efforts in the field of containment resulted in Soviet expansionism in 1975 to 1980. The Soviet Union was actively seeking global hegemony and control on all continents. The policy of containment had been abandoned in the 1970s and replaced by détente. Now the Reagan administration reversed the trend using a number of means. The National Security Decision Directives (NSDDs) were important. A National Security Decision Directive was a formal written order directing senior advisers and departments on policy. President Reagan signed a large number of such directives during the period 1980 – 1988 but three of them are especially important for the victory in the Cold War. One of them was NSDD 32. It did in short made clear that the United States would not accept Soviet domination of Eastern Europe. The principal objectives were: Support for underground movements in the Soviet dominated part of Europe. In detail it authorized aid for the Solidarity labor movement in Poland, the creation of clandestine Polish newspapers and broadcasting operations and cooperation with Vatican political initiatives in, for instance, Poland. Intensification of psychological operations, particularly radio broadcasts such as Voice of America and Radio Free Europe. Economic war against the regime in Moscow and attempts via diplomacy to weaken the heavy reliance of the East European regimes on Moscow were included. The directive was signed in May, 1982. It took around ten years to dismantle the CPSU. It may take somewhat longer to dismantle the CCP with its 90 million members. *Source: https://varldsinbordeskriget.wordpress.com/ EXCERPT:
STATE OF THE UNION Interview With Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-GA; Interview With Dr. Sanjay Gupta; Interview With Rep. Nikema Williams (D-GA); Interview With U.S. Secretary of State Tony Blinken. Aired 9-10a ET DANA BASH, CNN HOST: Welcome back to STATE OF THE UNION. I'm Dana Bash. Tensions between the U.S. and China are rising, after officials clashed in a rare public confrontation earlier this month, and the U.S. and the E.U. imposed new sanctions over China's human rights abuses. The growing threat from China is one of several reasons the Biden administration is working to reinvigorate America's relationship with allies. We spoke exclusively to the U.S. secretary of state, Tony Blinken, as he wrapped up a NATO summit in Brussels, about the Biden's -- Biden administration's new approach. (BEGIN VIDEOTAPE) BASH: Thank you so much, Mr. Secretary, for joining me. I want to start with a speech this week that you gave. You listed China first among the military and non-military threats to the United States. This comes, of course, after you clashed with Chinese officials in Anchorage last week. China is challenging the U.S. on cybersecurity, economics and with its military and committing what you called genocide against the Uyghurs. So, do you consider China the United States' biggest adversary? BLINKEN: Dana, I wouldn't simplify it to one label. There are clearly and increasingly adversarial aspects of the relationship. There are certainly competitive ones. There are also still some cooperative ones. But the common denominator is the need to approach China from a position of strength, whether it's adversarial, whether it's competitive, whether it's cooperative. And that's a big part of the reason that I was in -- in Asia last week, in Japan and Korea and a big part of the reason that I'm here in Europe and at NATO and the E.U. this week. It's about making sure that, as we engage China, one of our biggest sources of strength, our alliances, our partnerships, when we approach the challenges that China poses together, We're going to be much more effective in dealing with them. BASH: You said at your confirmation hearing, Mr. Secretary, that you believe the Chinese government misled the world about coronavirus. Given that and the millions of people, of course, who have died around the world, should China be punished for that? BLINKEN: You know, I think the issue for us is to make sure that we do everything possible to prevent another pandemic, even as we're working through this one, or at the very least to make sure that we can mitigate in much more effective ways any damage done if something happens in the future. And a big part of that is making sure that we have a system in place, including with the World Health Organization, that features transparency, that features information-sharing, and features access for international experts at the start of something like this. And that's where I think China, like every other country, has real obligations that it needs to make good on. So, I think what we need to be focused on is making sure we're protecting ourselves and protecting the world going forward. And that's going to require a lot of reform. And it's going to require China to do things that it hasn't done in the past. BASH: That sounded like a no when it comes to repercussions for what happened in the past, and maybe even that is happening currently, which is the damage that is being done around the world because of this pandemic. No repercussions? No punishment? BLINKEN: Look, I think that we've got to -- there's a report coming out shortly by the World Health Organization. We've got real concerns about the methodology and the process that went into that report, including the fact that the government in Beijing apparently helped to write it. But let's see what comes out in that report. But we do need to have both accountability for the past, but I think our focus needs to be on building a stronger system for the future. ![]() Marijuana Madness in the White House By Cliff Kincaid - March 28, 2021 If you’ve been following “March Madness,” look no further than the purge of potheads in the White House. Somebody in power -- perhaps Joe Biden himself -- decided that potheads should not be writing his policies and speeches. He understands that using marijuana is still illegal under federal law and that it has wreaked havoc on his own family members. News of the firings of potheads was leaked to the publication The Daily Beast, which reported that “dozens of young White House staffers have been suspended, asked to resign, or placed in a remote work program due to past marijuana use.” Perhaps the stench of marijuana was getting too heavy around the Oval Office. Or perhaps there is a growing awareness at the highest levels of the government of the damage the drug is doing to people. If it wasn’t Biden, it may have been Dr. Vivek Murthy, who was just confirmed as Surgeon General. He has been opposed to marijuana legalization in the past and has expressed concern about how rapidly states have been legalizing marijuana without understanding the potency of the drug. In a letter to Dr. Murthy, the group Americans Against Legalizing Marijuana noted that research on marijuana’s harmful effects is known and accumulating. “This is a social change that has no positive outcomes,” the group says. Anti-drug activists are pleased that the Biden White House has “doubled down” on defending the firing of potheads in the face of immense pressure and ridicule. Our media have been implicated in the drug culture since the Jimmy Carter days, when Dr. Peter Bourne, Carter’s adviser on drug abuse, resigned amidst charges that he had written an illegal prescription for quaaludes and had been observed snorting cocaine at a National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML) party. Two Washington Post reporters were at the party. In regard to marijuana and other drugs, some believe we are entering the Brave New World of Aldous Huxley, where Soma is prescribed for the population, to alter their consciousness. The Journal of Addiction Research & Therapy has published a ground-breaking analysis of how marijuana is linked to violence, mental illness and even Jihad. In this regard, the arrest of a Black Lives Matter activist in possession of a firearm, marijuana and drug paraphernalia is significant. He was arrested for allegedly participating in the defacement of a statue of former President Lincoln in Idaho during Black History Month. The activist, Terry Wilson, was identified as a former Boise State University adjunct professor. The White House pothead firings created a problem, since Vice President Harris is a disciple of the marijuana movement, having declared it a mind-altering substance that brings “joy” to the world. For potheads, “Joy to the World” means recreational marijuana. For Democrats and some Republicans, legalization means that stoners with a habit buy more and more dope, creating more government revenue. Harris said during the campaign that marijuana would be decriminalized at a federal level in the United States under a Biden administration. Democrats have been spearheading the drug legalization movement, egged on by millions from George Soros and Mark Zuckerberg, and there has been predictable resistance to the firing of those White House staffers over their marijuana use. The group NORML highlighted the fact that the Congressional Marijuana Caucus, led by Representatives Earl Blumenauer, Don Beyer, Jared Huffman, Mondaire Jones, and Barbara Lee, fired off a letter to Biden protesting the firings. The members noted that “Those in the upper ranks of your administration won’t face consequences for their cannabis use, and nor should they, but the same standard should be applied across the administration.” By that they meant Kamala Harris, now in charge of America’s open borders policy. Kamala Harris loves marijuana, which is about to be legalized nationally in Mexico, and Joe Biden knows a lot about it, too. His daughter was busted for weed and his son Hunter experienced harder drugs like cocaine, forcing him out of the military after he was caught snorting. There’s absolutely no indication that China Joe is a user but Barack Hussein Obama was such a notorious abuser of hard drugs that there was speculation about whether this stoner president was mentally impaired. Of course, China Joe seems mentally impaired in other ways. Obama was a former member of the “Choom Gang” of heavy marijuana users and admitted to using cocaine. David Maraniss, author of a book on Obama, notes that the word “choom” means to smoke marijuana. He said Obama “started a few pot-smoking trends,” suggesting the future president understood ways to make the “high” from the drug even more powerful and lasting. One method they used was to smoke dope in a car and then inhale or suck in what was left of the smoke in the ceiling of the car. The firing of the Biden White House pothead staffers gives us some hope that Biden may not completely embrace the national drive launched by Obama (and embraced by Harris) to make cannabis more legally and freely available. It appears that someone in the White House making these decisions understands the lingering effects of the heavy use of illegal drugs. Perhaps Biden doesn’t want people around him who followed the example of his son Hunter. *Cliff Kincaid is president of America’s Survival, Inc. www.usasurvival.org |
