Woke; gratitude and forgiveness, or shame and resentment. Choice is yours.

British public opinion toward the United States has undergone a dramatic shift in recent months, with new polling indicating that a clear majority of Britons no longer see America as a force for good in the world. bit.ly/4c5d4j5

As we hear more and more about China, we are actually understanding less and less about the country.

Let’s be real here. Europe has spent decades freeloading on American security. Even now, with every NATO member finally hitting the 2% GDP target in 2025. But beyond the financial contributions, the real rupture is philosophical and the Iran crisis has shown a spotlight on it. Europe worships process. Endless committees, consultations, and “predictability.” Macron actually calls it a virtue. For Trump, this is paralysis as his style is to articulate a threat, fix a target, and act. The Americans are men of conviction and purpose. Europe on the other hand lives by bureaucratic liturgy and in high-minded abstractions. Sure, Americans might make mistakes when acting. But Europe never considers what the costs of not acting actually are. Just look at how their nations are doing on various fronts, especially on the border crisis, and you see the same cancerous rot that undergirds their foreign policy approach play out domestically. It's the same problem on a different scale. Iran is currently holding the Strait of Hormuz hostage, choking 20% of global oil and spiking prices past $100 a barrel. Meanwhile, the regime is bleeding from strikes, its nuclear ambitions are still alive despite degraded capability, and its proxies are firing missiles at allies and oil tankers. If this isn’t a clear and present danger to the global economy - of which Europe is a part - then I don’t know what is. Yet when Washington asked to use European bases to finish the job - bases the US has defended for generations, the response was hesitation and hand-wringing. The US did strike from RAF Fairford, but only after warnings that British soil could become a “legitimate target.” If you cannot agree that a theocratic regime with eschatological ambitions who have shown no restraint in hitting out at Gulf countries and threatening the world’s energy jugular is an enemy worth confronting, then what, exactly, are we allies about? Europe loves to preen about being tough on Russia. They issue condemnations and speeches and slap sanctions that hardly work to cripple the Russian economy. Now here was a chance to do something concrete: let the Americans use the bases they already pay for, help clear the Strait, and actually degrade the Iranian war machine that arms Moscow’s proxies. Turmp didn’t ask for boots on the ground or any kind of more offensive action. All he wanted was permission to operate from the infrastructure America has underwritten for decades. They couldn’t even manage that. So can you blame the Americans for seeing NATO for what it is? A paper-tiger alliance that expects Washington to bleed and pay while Brussels and London convenes and deliberates. If Europe refuses to treat Iran as the threat it is while happily letting American power keep the Strait open and the lights on, then the alliance is already dead. Trump is simply stating the obvious and the Americans are becoming very reluctant to subsidize the European delusion any longer.

The single most radicalizing moment of my life was watching Democrats from the balcony of the State of the Union refuse to stand for Iryna Zarutska's mother, seated 15 feet away from me. Now they're tearing down her murals. They never cared about immigrants, it was all a lie.

It shouldn't surprise anyone that the Iranian regime is continuing to murder its own people in the most brutal ways imaginable. The fall of this regime will be a blessing to mankind.

"Ancient" is doing a lot of work here since Taiwan was not conquered by the Qing Empire until the late 17th Century. Both Portuguese and Dutch traders had established settlements there BEFORE China. Earlier dynasties, like the Ming, barely knew Taiwan was there.
Liu Pengyu 刘鹏宇@SpoxCHNinUS

🇨🇳FM Wang Yi: #Taiwan has been an integral part of #China since ancient times. It never was, is not, and never will be a country. Any attempt to create “two Chinas” or “one China, one Taiwan” is doomed to fail. Resolving the Taiwan question and realizing the complete reunification of our motherland is a historic process that cannot be stopped. Those who support it are on the right side of history; those who defy it shall perish. fmprc.gov.cn/eng/wjbzhd/202…

What’s the problem? It is totally on brand for San Francisco to celebrate someone for defecting from the USA. This is the same city that finally threw its homeless out and executed a perfect cleanup when Xi Jinping came to town. SF never met a commie and traitor it didn’t love

Apparently, arresting Maduro and killing Khamenei were easier than getting a Republican Senate majority to pass the Save America Act.

My Cartoon on Eileen GU 漫画谷爱凌 Gu is not a traitor for not representing USA. But She is a traitor to humanity for she helps CCP to white-wash Uyghur genocide,HK crackdown,brutal Internet censorship and high profile metoo case of Peng Shuai.

You, of all outlets, need to SHUT UP. You were the first outlet to dox me. You ran a deranged piece painting me as some CFPB mastermind only because you couldn’t dig up dirt. You tried to cancel me. You don’t get to whine about cancel culture. Here’s the rule: if you don’t want to get fired, don’t cheer the deaths of your neighbors, family, or fellow Americans. You and I are not the same. We see you. You are hypocrites. You are evil. Go crawl away in shame.

The United States should consider sanctioning Taiwanese lawmakers from the opposition party who are trying to sell out Taiwan to the CCP, as this undermines U.S. national interests and security. This open letter should be just the first step.
Rep. Anna Paulina Luna@RepLuna

Friends of Taiwan: I stand with my colleagues in Congress urging the Legislative Yuan to back President Lai and fund his FULL defense budget proposal. The threat from Beijing is real and growing. America stands with Taiwan, but Taiwan must stand strong. The world is watching.

What's funny is that they waited until now to publish stories like this: China's new nuclear-powered icebreaker capable of breaking up ice floes up to 2.5 meters thick - using a molten salt reactor combined with supercritical carbon dioxide propulsion. Ostensibly for polar tourism + cargo. Could've brought this up to contextualize the whole Greenland brouhaha in January but no. Instead, let's wait until no one's paying attention to discuss China's Arctic ambitions
